In the Tolls Again,

Lewis Mason, who was tried be-
fore the Mayor last evening on the
charge of breaking the bulk window
of George NJ. Bacon, was arraigned
before the Mayor again this morn
ing.
Immediately after being discharg-
ed last evening, he visited the saloon
of Mr.. Bacon, and upon being re
mOnstrated with by the wife of the
proprietor, and ordered to leave he
refused aud cursed heS.+. He vas ar
rested by Sergeant Whelan, and af
ter the witnesses had been examined
this morning, he was required to pay
SO and costs and furnish $500 bail
to keep the peace. The Mayor in
formed him that the security must
be first class freehold, and that the
bond would be sent to the Attorney
General, to sue out in case he broke
it.

Case Disnl ssed.

An interesting case to the specta-
tors was heard by Mayor Almond
last evening.
On Tuesday night last slight dis
turbance occurred at the saloon of
George Bacon, on Fourth street, be.
tween Market and Shipley. During
the disturbance several bricks were
hurled through his bulk window in
consequence of which number of
panes ofglass were broken. Mr..
Bacon had Lewis II. Mason arrested
for having committed the act, and
when arraigned last evening Harry
Sharpley, Esq, appeared as his
counsel. The plaintiff in his testi-
mony stated that he had received a
number OF threatening letters signed
by Mason, in which he charged the
witness with harboring his wife. The
evidence failed to prove that the
signature was that Of Mason. Sew
eral witnesses were examined but
failed to prove that the defendant
threw the bricks into the window
The case was dismissed.

FROM the F Y. Star.
HOW CONKLING MAKES POLL
TICS PAY.

There is a good deal of money to
be made in politics, if one only knows
how to set about it. 1t makes little
difference whether a man is lawyer
or politician, or both; the peculiar in
side acquaintence-'the knowledge
of the rOpes"-is all that is requir-
ed.
Mr.. Whitney, as everybody knows,
was confirmed as Corporation Coun-
sci by the aid of Conkling. One good
turn deserves another, and consequent
ly, by the aid of Whitney, Conkling is
now enabled to claim a handsome Zee
for representing the city legal capac-
ity where W hiJney sh0uid have NM
self been its counsel.
Again, as everybody knows, Attors
ney General Ward was helped to his
office by Conkling; and now we see
the return in Conkling being assisted
by the Attorney General to a hand
some retainer for arguing a case at
Albany which it was Mr.. Wards du-
tv to have attended to in person.
It's good rule that works both
ways-and Roscoe Conkling evidently
knows how TO work 1t.

REMOVAL OF WORKSHOPS
WHAT THE P. W. & B. r. r. co.
CONCENTRATES DOING.

OON OO1Nds
For long time past the p. w. &
B. r.. II. Company have been
cramped for room in their shops,
foot of Fourth street. Some time
ago they purchased large tract of
land on the south side of the rail-
road tracks opposite Browntown,
and at once went to work to make
a number of improvements.
One of the first to be made was
the laying of additional number of
tracks, and the removal of the freight
yard from Fourth street. This was
done for the purpose of doing away
with the shifting and making UP OF
freight trains in the heart of the
city.
In order TO have more room
wherein to work the company intend
to erect a number of handsome
frame structures on the tract pur-
chased by them. The first building
will be a carpenter shop, 40 by 130
feet, the upper story to be oc-
cupied as offices, store room, etc.
The second building will be a
planning mill, 40 by IS feet, the Sec
ond story Of which will be used as
cabinet shop. The third building
will be the paint shop, 90 by 60 feet,
and l6 feet high. A lumber shed,
40 by 200 feet, will also be erected.
IL will be twenty feet high. The
whole space occupied by the build
ings will be about 100 by 600 feet,
and will be enclosed.
A portion of the work has already
commenced, and will be pushed for.
ward as rapidly as the weather will
permit.
The erection of the buildings will
be decided Improvement in the vi
cinity, and as large force of work
men will be employed there will
consequently be a demand for
houses, and there is no doubt num-
ber of new dwellings will be erected.
There is a splendid opportunity for
capitalists TO make good invests
ments, as there are several very fas
vorable lots in the immediate vi
cinity of the buildings.
