A BLOW TO The ALLIANCE.
WHAT A. J. DITTENHoEFER THINKS OF THE LOCAL
POLITICAL COMPLICATIONs.

WHAT A. }. pITTINHOEFER THINKS OF THE LOCAL
POLITICAL COMPLICATIONS.
Al Dltteuhoefer said in relation TO this subject
al have no doubt that the removal Of Police Com
miss oner Smith entirely in accordance with law.
His ease does not present the questions that were
raised by the attempted removal OF Commits
sioner Wheeler. The latter claimed that his
term having expired, removal, within
the legal definition of that word, could
he made for the reason that the Mayor had only to
send the name of some one TO the Board of Alder
men for confirmation, in order TO get nd of him.
Nv own opinion Is that this claim on the part Of
Mr. Wheeler IS not tenabe. IL is not necessary 10
decide the question whether the Mayor can remove
a commissioner whose term has EXPIRED Ia my
Judgment il does not he in the mouth OF a Commits
siouer 10 object to the form or method in which
an existing vacancy OF the ONCE Is hiied
Rnt this question does not arse in the
case of Commissioner Smith. The power undoubt-
edlv exists with the Mayor to remove on charges
and alter q hearing. The charges have been pre-
ferred the hearing has been allowed and the Gov
ernor approves. The act, therefore becomes COM
nisfe The hearing intended by the Charter must
necessarily mean a summary hearing. III cannot
mean q trai with all the delays ana f0ins OF con-
tested litigation.
Smith as a sledge-hammeT blow at the alliance
between a certain faction OF the Republican party
and Tammany Hall. Last Fall the Republican
paTty. III convection and IN committee, decided
that IN the interests of TIE city aud of The party
combination with Ant-I aDmaDy was necessary.
Tbat decislon was subsequently ratified at the
polls Alter the induction Of Mayor Cooper INTO
Office certain appointments were obtained
by the Republicans. Mr.. Van COtt was
APPOINTED Fire Commissioner Mr. Hess, ComInis-
siOner Of Charities and Correction, and Mr.. French
Police Commissioner. The appointment OF MI.
French obnoxious 70 many hepub itcans, not on
personal grounds but because it was not believed
10 be necessary 20 go 20 Suffolk County 10 secure
man for the Office For reasons that are well known
No nat la ~ legitimate
vote of tie Republicans and Anu-TammaBy. and
the result was az alliance with 1ammany
Hall Undoubtedly the meaning Of the alli-
anee 90 Tar as 1ammaDy Hall was

Wheeler rs Tax Commissioner and the running OF
the Police Department in its interests That Inter
est would be subserved by the naming of inspectors
of election and poll clerks friendly TO them III the
removal of Mr.. Wheeler had been consummate1,
that plan would have been disturbed. bnt as III
was not contaminated. the removal OF COMMITS
sioner Smith is equally effective. IL aISo
helps the a" Independent men IN the hepuD
hcau party, those who refuse to go through
thick and thin 70 subSerye the personal interests OF
a few men, and who are opposed TO tine men VINO
dicker with Iammany Hall. The inspectorshlps
and pOl-cleTkshps have been peddled out III the
Republican organization, against these men IN
many districts, and efforts have been made 10 en-
tice men away by offers of these appointments;
This if cOnsummated, will put a stop to that. III
Commissioner Wheeler had been removed ana an
other Republican appointed IN his place, the man
selected would probably have been somebody VINO
would have been unacceptable TO the element OF the
Republican party that has antagonHed the mayor,
aud there would have been division still IN our
own ranks.
The fight amongst Republicans is not against the
E" one man power" but II is a ainst the " one man
power that wants everything for Itself. No blame
can he attached to Mr.. Kelly for making this al
lance. lie had perfect right to do so for his own
party ends. 1t was not against the policy OF the
faction which he represents 10 do II. On tile CON
tTary 10 in the interest of that faction 10 wipe
out Anti-Tammany. winch naturally must be he
result of such an alliance. To my mi d. the strange
thing about IT is that the Republicans have made an
alliance with their enemies to beat their allies

MEMPHIS, Oct. 28.-Yellow fever
items have been difficult to find to-

to the Board Of Health; neither
did the Howards have any call for
nurses. The undertakers report one
interment, Henry Green, aged 13,
residing at the corner of Carolina
and Fifth streets, in Fort Pickering.
The only event of interest was the
breaking up Of Camp Father Mat
thew, which was celebrated by
all its inmates marching in
procession to St. Bridget's Cath
olic Church, where services
were held, which were participated
in by Fathers Kelly, Quinn and
Walsh, after which the benediction
was pronounced and the peOpIe
wended their way to their homes
after an absence Of over three
months. Memphians continue to
flock into the city, and all trains to
arrive during the week will be
jammed. The merchants are over
crowded with. orders for goods, and
business is booming. Nearly d
thousand bales of cotton we're re-
ceived to day, and when it will be
remembered that none Of our local
packets have yet resumed their
work, it proves that there is still
life in the old land, and with the
splendid crops that have been made
in the country whose trade is tribu-
tary to this city, our receipts of
cotton will hardly fall short Of pre-
vious years, Notwithstanding the
serious drawback that was exper>
fenced by the appearance of fever.
Tomorrow morning the Howards
will relieve from duty all but two of
their visitors.

Postal Statistics.

Special to the Cincinnati Commercial.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 29.-In order
to ascertain the number of letters
annually mailed in the United
States, the Postmaster General has
directed all Postmasters to count
the letters that are dropped at their
Offices, or collected from street
boxes, during the first week of
November, which is believed to be
a good week in which to make tn
count and reach an average. The
number of letters delivered viii
also be counted during that week,
and the sum multiplied by fifty
two, which will be taken as good
estimate Of the number handled
during the year.

A WASHINGTON special to the
Cincinnati Gazette, concerning the
Louisiana election, has the follow
ing:
The proposition to send 3 number of
the most prominent Republican sneak
ers into Louisiana during the Deeem.
ber campaign is receiving much atten.
ton. The President is earnest in his
support of this plan to aid the SnDth-
ern Republicans to reorganizs the
party In that State, and to heIp in =
curing full vote. He looks up0n IL
as the practical way of strengthenino
Inc Southern Republicans undar Il a
circumstances which surround them.
he thinks our prominent men conI1
go through all sections of the State
with safety, and that their ureaenca
would also make Republican reoroani~
zation possible in all the districts Tf
there is anything like free vCta tha
Republicans will carry the State.
Owing to the fact that undar tbo
Constitution to be submitted. the T,ag0
l9lature to be elected can appoint the
Electors for President, the nteer
really involves the political Character
OF eight votes for President. This
feature will fix the attention of he
%hole country upon this election.
For this reason it is held by the Pfesi-
Dent and prominent Republicans th at
IL will be of vast importance to have
the campaign in Louisiana watched as
carefully and contested as sharply on
