AN EXPLOSION OF WRATH.

GENERAL SMITH INTRODUCES Ills SUCCESSOR TO
THE POLICE BOARD, AND PRUDENTLY WITH
pRAws-A FRANK EXPRESSION OF OPINION on
THE PART OF MRssRs MASON. FRENCH AND
NICHOLS THAT THE Ex-MEMBER DOESN'T TELL
TIKI TRUTH.
Police Commissioners French, Mason and Nichols
went to headquarters yesterday morning with fire
in their eyes, Each had read in The TRIBUNE the
arragnment by their associate General Smith of the
management Of the Street-Cleaning Bureau, and
each Commissioner felt indignant. They consulted
privately for few moments after which the matter
was dropped until the meeting OF the Board. When
the Board convened it was evident that General
Smith would be called upon to defend himself, and
that his associates did not intend to
mlnce matters On the table, around which
the members had gathered, lay an
open file OF The TRIBUNE. The article in reference
to STRENGTHENING was surrounded with blue pencil
mark, and through the column which contained Cen
eral Smiths assertions were frequent underscorings
General Smith was not present and all eyes were
turned anxiousIy to the door awaiting his coming.
He soon made his appearance Ia company with a
stranger tall man with rather dark hair and beard
dressed in plain business suit. General Smith in
troduced the stranger to the other Commissioners a.
Judge Matthews and then turning to Mr.. Mason
said. with smile:
Judge Matthews will show you papers that will
put my nose out of joint"
1.-THE paper that can put General Smiths nose out
of Joint must be pretty stiff" replied Commissioner
Mason. coldly.
Just then General Smith caught siRhs Of The
TRIBUNE file with his remarks underlined and in a
moment he had disappeared.
The appearance Of Mr.. Matthews with his creden.
tials as Police Commissioners to succeed General
Smith, who had resigned, was apparently surprise to
the other Commissioners; but the now man was soon
exercising tho duties of q member Of the Board. He
had brought with him stenographer who for years
was In samuel ]. Tildens- private Office. and this
stsnographer sat beside him and took down much that
was said during the MEETING especially all that re-

The Police Commissioners were much ex-
cited yesterday by the charges which General
Smith made about the management OF the
Street Cleaning Bureau, and which were pub
lished in THE TRIBUNE. They went to the
meeting in the afternoon intending to express
very pointed opinions to General Smiths face
about his veracity. Their annoyance was
aggravated when they learned that General
Smith had resigned and was beyond their
reach. His successor, James Matthews, had
already been appointed and he attended the
meeting. Notwithstanding General Smiths
absence, the Commissioners made fiery speeches.
aud denounced his statements as false.

troubles which beset the government on
every side. The disaster in the Trans
vaal is almost universally ascribed to
official laundering, and the number OF
persons who ascribe the troubles in Ire
land to the same cause is by no means
small. 1t is generally charged that the
Natal authorities were long aware of a
contemplated rising by the Dutch Beers,
and they paid no heed to repeated warn
ings and took no precautions to protect
themselves. When the storm broke, it
is charged, they were utterly unprepared
to meet it, and the result Of this course
could be nothing else but shameful defeat
and disaster. The home government has
decided-a as usual, when it is too late
to send military aid to the colonists of
Natal. They were asked to do this some
time ago, but the request was put aside
until now. The Sixth Dragons, it is
announced, will be sent to Natal in few
days, with instructions to report to the
commandant at Durham. The flower of
the army is rapidly leaving England for
the inhospitable shores of Ireland and
Africa.

A USEFUL INvENTIoN.-"T he funniest
thing out" is recent editorial in the
st. James Gazette. After commenting
gravely upon the ingenuity of Americans
generally, and naming several startling
inventions, our esteemed transatlantic
contemporary proceeds solemnly in the
following manner: "Those inventions
are, however, eclipsed in ingenuity by one
mentioned by the New York Times. 1t
has been brought out by Mr.. Miller, the
eminent engineer, and has for its object
the prevention of injury by the butting
of rams. A coiled springer, if preferred,
an india-rubber spring-is fixed on the
forehead Of the ram, which entirely
breaks the force of its blow. The recoil
of the spring, too, hurls the ram to a
long distance, thus giving the assaulted
person time to escape second attack.
Mr.. Miller tried the effect of this spring
ram on his wife's mother, a ladyl of
more than usual fragility. The blow OF
the ram was scarcely felt by the mother
in-law, but the recoil threw the ram
thirty feet, and completely over stone
wall fourteen feet high"
