The New York World sent its mathe.
matical reporter down among the docks on
the morning Of the Cleveland funeral, and
he found, after close calculation, that flags
of mourning foatcd at half.mast from fifty
seven ocean steamships, ffty.thrce ships,
two hundred and forty-six barks, forty-nine
brigs, and one hundred and eighty-nine
schooners, lying in the port of New York,
and making total. of five hundred and
nincty-four vessels. OF the ocean steamers
every one, and of the other vessels two
thirds displayed the flags of foreign powers.
In this connection it should be remembered
that we constitute nation Of fifty millions
and, on this particular day, it so happened
that in the port of our great metropolis,
which has n population of about n million
and a half and represents countless mil
lions of capital, not one american flag floatcd
over the fifty-seven ocean steamers!
Every nation of the slightest commercial
importance was on hand to pay its tribute
of respect No doubt Norway and Sweden,
that we could buy and sell dozen times
before breakfast any day in the year, had
their bunting displayed. This might be
merely n coincidence, the reader remarks.
Possibly it could not have happened again
in hundred years. Not by any means.
As long as Bayard, Pinckney Whytc, and
John Goldman continue to "organize" an
American merchant marine, our flag will
continue to float the Chesapeake oyster

IN THE course Of n voluminous affidavit
filed yesterday in the Criminal Court, Mr.
Thomas l., James swears, among other
things, that Thomas J. Brady used large
sums of money with Zone A. c. Buell." to
influence him, the said Buell., and through
the said Buell., sundry members of Congress,
in order to secure the passage of " largo and
unjust appropriations" This is the sub
stance of Mr.. Thomas l.. James sworn state
mcnt so far rs "onc A. G. Buell. " Is con.
cerncd.
The facts are that Thomas j. Brady
never FUSED with -" one A. c. Buell. any
sums of money large" or otherwise, to
influence him " or for any other purpose.
Thomas J. Brady never fused with one A.
C. Buell. any "sum of money" or other
valuable consideration in his life. Thomas
j. Brady never had transaction of any
nature with "onc A. G.. Buell. " touching
any matter connected with the administra-
ton of the Post.oflice Department, or touch.
ing legislation to "securc the passage of ap.
propriations," "large" or small, unjust"
or just, for any purpose whatsoever.
In short, so far as Thomas l.. James afli-
davit relates to como A. c. Buell." it is
simple perjury from beginning to end.
