A Shooting in Brooklyn Charged Against
aJudse for Failure to Garry Out Cor
rupt Bargain.
New YORK. May 15.--Andrew W. Wander
water, formerly an officer in the court of
general sessions, and who recently pre-
fered charges of corruption against Judge
Henry A. Gildersleeve of that court, was shot
in the left shoulder about o'clock yesterday
morning, while on the West side. All kinds
of rumors were wildly floating about in Van
derwater's neighborhood when daylight came,
and the fact became known that he
having became so wrapped up in his efforts to
have Judge Gildersleeve removed from the
bench he scarcely talked of anything else every
day in the week Vanderwater's friends
laughed at the stories, saying they were con-
cocted by the inefficient and almost useless
police force in the precinct. They1 declared
their conviction he had been shot by an un-
known man, and one of the Vanderwater's did
not hesitate to say that in his opinion the
man who did the shooting was hired to do it
to get him out of the way, as he put it, VIM.
NoIon, of Brooklyn, was arrested and identi-
fed by Vanderwater, as the person who shot
him. According to documents drawn up
by Vanderwater's lawyer, and sent
the governor, Judge Gildersleeve corruptly
agreed to appoint VanderWater as an omcer OF
the court of general sessions at 81 200 per an
mum upon condition he should pay Elmer D.
Gildersleeve, brother of the Judge, out Of his
salary 800 month. short time afterward
Vanderwater was appointed to the position,
and began from the first month to
pay the Judges brother $40 month. These
payments were made up to June, 1878, when
Vanderwater discontinued payment. Judge
Gildersleeve, Vanderwater makes oath, threat
ened to remove him unless be carried out
his agreement with him. The judge then sent
his father and other persons to him to fright
en- him into resuming payments, but he re-
fused to resume, saying he had receipts which
would ruin the judge if published.

OVER THE OCEAN.
COERCION ARRESTS.
GREAT BRITAIN.

LONDON, May 7.-Three sons of farmer
numsd Quinlan, living near Trallee, and Jerry
Brasnan, a shopkeeper at Castle Island, county
Kerry, have been arrested under the Coercion
act.
A CODY of the revised versions of the scrip
lures will be presented the queen Tuesday
next and will thereupon be published for cir
culation.
It is said that the queen desires to confer
peerage upon Master Coningsby, Dlsraeli's
nephew, late Lord Beaconsfeld, but Gladstone
dissents.
The Economist says Secretary of the Trea-
sury Window is to be complimented upon the
ingenuity of his scheme, and the judgment he
has shown in putting it into execution.
A PEERAGE.
Gladstone will probably accept apeerage and
seat in house of lords, after passage of the
land,bill The Cuckoo says his title will be Earl
ofOxford, and other society papers say Earl
of Howarden.

The Services Of Vom Ar7stn.
ST. PAUL, May II, 1881.
Editor of the Horse Column, Globe.
Dear Sir: You will confer favor and satisfy
many inquiring minds by kindly informing
the many readers of your interesting column,
as to whether Comodore Kittson intends to
keep his stallion Won Arnim for private use,
or if the public will be allowed the use of his
services. Yours truly, ENQUIRER.
ANSWER.
In conversation with Mr.. Kittson Friday
last, he expressed himself as entirely satisfied
with tbs speed record Won Arnim had secured,
and though not irrevocably decided as yet, be
thought it more than probable he
would keep the horse, for stud
purposes exclusively. Though not
asked the question direct, we gained the i'm
preston from what Mr.. Kittson said in that
interview, that limited service of Won Arnim
outside of the harem of choice brood mares
he is getting together, would be allowed. Mr..
Kittson in Won Arnim has got one of the best
bred sires in America. His conformation and
his performances on the track are worthy his
high breeding. His service In the stud has
demonstrated his power to transmit his good
qualities. Mr.. Kttson paid $4,000 for him,
and, consequently, his service will be high,
but there are Minnesotians who are>willing to
pay high for such service, and, as said above,
we surmised from Mr.. Kittson's remarks, that
such parties would be accommodated to
limited extent.

GoLd COINAGE.

WASHINGTON, May 15.-The director of the
mint estimates the total gold circulation of
the United States, including bullion in the
treasury, amounted at the commencement of
the current month to $500, 0,000, 900, of which
about 1854 ,000, 900 was held as treasury and
national bank reserves, and $3.50, 100000 was
in actual circulation. There has been total
gain of gold coin and bullion to the country
since July 1, 1879, of $2S4, 300, 900, OF which
$35, 900, 900 was added to the treasury, $780,
100000 to banks, and $40,000,000 to ae-
tive circirculation. The total amount
of gold in the country makes fair showing
compared with the principal countries OF Eu-
rope, being exceeded by two only. The
amount estimated to be in England in 1880,
was S596, ,OOO, 900, of which $42S,000,000 was
in circulation, and France with 1927, 100000,
and Germany had in circulation about SSl6,-
100000. The larger proportion OF gold IN
active circulation in the latter two countries,
the director attributes in part to the fact that
their coinage consists almost exclusively OF
denominations of less value than five dollars.
The largest English gold coin is sovereign.
equival MT to S4.S61 OF our money, while
in France, out of the total coinage for the
last II years of s1,943, ,2Ss,0OO gold, nearly
SO per cent. was in pieces less than SIS. In the
United States the bulk of gold coinage has
heretofore been in double eagles. From 1850
to 1880 nearly 1920, 900, 900 were struck in that
coin, S44 00O,O 900 in eagles SAC, 600 009 in half
eagles, and s42, 900, 900 in smaller denomina-
tions. The absorption Of $40, ,O00,0 600 in gold
coin to the active circulation of the country
from July 1, 1870, he believes is owing the in
creased coinage since that time of denomina
tions less than double eagles. Coinage of
the latter during the fiscal year 1880, and up to
April 30 last, amounted to only $4,000, 600,
while S47, 10000 was struck in eagles. and
s40,0OO,0O0 in half eagles, and during the
same time $50, 600, ,00G Of these coins have been
paid out by the treasury, and are still retained
in active circulation.
