ARE THROWN INTO DEEP WATER.
CLAYTON, n. Y, July 31.-A pleasure party char
tered two steam yachts the Josephine and the Far

sons. They were spending few days on the St
Lawrence, and hired the yachts with view to
visiting Kingston, Ontario, and other points.
The boats steamed up the river from Thousand
Island Park to this place. and as the Josephine was
a slower boat than the Harrington, it was proposed
to lash the two together and thus keep the party
united, As soon as this was DONE the party pro-
ceeded on its Journey, but had not gone forty rods
when 1t was found that the stays were not properly
adjusted The Josephine began taking water
Without lessening the speed an effort was made 10
loosen the stays. The bow line was let out TIL the
was caught in q knot and she capsized and sank in
eighty feet of water In half minute.
AS the boat tipped over every one on board feD
into the water, and many were drawn down as the
boat sank. Nothing happened 70 the harrington,
and many of those IA tho water were taken out by
her. Others we're rescued by small boats which

Commissioners, but Eocgm tsnsns ugtil the MAYOR
special power of removal for cause, be-
cause he is already removed BY expira-
ton of his term edectually as he can be removed
by any proceeding The amendment made in 1874
to the 25th section of the charter of 1873 provided
that the Mayor without confirmation Of the Board
of Aldermen, may fill any vacancy occurring from
any cause other than the expiration Of the full term,
In Mr. Wheeler's case" said lawyer last night,
citing similar case. There Is already a vacancy
caused by the expiration of his term of Office, al
though he continues, ad interim, to exercise its du
ties. A removal for cause in such cir
cumstanoes would be a useless and senseless
ceremony unless its design be, Is not to be sup
posed. to give the Mayor an opportunity of evading
the law. which requires the concurrence Of the
Aldermen to the appointment of a successor"
1t is generally believed, however, that the Mayor
and Governor will remove Mr.. Wheeler at this time,
although an appeal will be made to the courts for
redress, The Governor did not approve the removal
of Mr.. Erhardt on the exception, mentioned above,
but privately advised the Mayor to nominate his
successor, which advice was followed In the NOM
ination of Mr.. French The exceptions taken to tho
removal of Mr.. Nichols, who, however, was not
holding over, are still in the courts. The Governor
holds the papers on the case OF General Smith,
never having officially acted them, but 1t Is be-
lieved now he will do so soon.

MR.. wHEELER'S EXPLANATION.

NO REAL DEFICIT SHOWN TO EAlST-CONFlDENCE
IN HIS POSITION.
The charges were served on Commissioner
Wheeler at 9:35 p. IN. yesterday by W. Brown, tho
Mayors messenger. Mr. Wheeler was In one OF the
rooms I'm the Everett House, together with Police
Commissioner French. John |. Davenport, George
Bliss Elihu Root, John O'Brien and a few other
prominent Republicans. When asked by q TRIBUNE
reporter what he had to say in reply to the
charges, Commissioner Wheeler said that be
thought his letter TO the Mayor covered the
whole ground. "Why," said he, the whole mat
ter is simply this; The accounts were examined by
an official from the Mayors Office and an alleged
deficiency of 81 900 was at first discovered. Re-
ceipts were afterward found and this sum was re-
duced to SIS, OOO then to $4,000, and guess there
will be still further reduction. Now this sum is
not deficiency for the money is ready to be pro-
duced at any time.
"The cloth for the policemen is bought
by the department to insure uniformity OF color,
price is charged tho officers for shrinkage
and cuttings When the merchant is paid there Is
Just the extra amount left. Now TO whom does this
extra amount bclongf 1t Is the profit from the sale

me and have acted accordingly AT the present
time 1 hold the money as trustee for the

properly belongs. That amount Is now In the
hands Of my counsel and will be paid by them TO
any person entitled to receive It. If the money
properly belonged TO the city should have paid Il
myself to the City Chamberlain. Now al TINS talk

ceved any money from Tammany Hall for any
