CHICAGO, Dec. 28.-John Parry, head
book keeper Of the bank of Dewey & Bev-
eridge, was arrested this evening for en-
bezzlement. He had been with the bank
three years, and his integrity was un-
doubted until the last few months, when
his dissipated habits became noticeable
and attracted suspicion. A watch was set,
and it was discovered he frequented
Choate's hotel poker parlors, Hanbins'
faro rooms. drank heavily and also had a
woman scrape on his hands. This
was enough, and experts were
at once put to work on his books. Parry
had operated in most bold but ingenious
manner that almost defied detection, but
so far the reports have unearthed frauds
amounting to $1,000. How much more
is undiscovered is not yet known. He
handled no cash. He was in the habit of
taking checks and drafts to Manager
Dewey for his signature, and his plan was
to run in an extra draft once in q while,
slip it in his pocket and obtain cash on it
through a confederate, one Jim Nicholson,
a fly bartender in Mohler & Gates estab-
lishment, who had deposit at the Ma
tional bank of Illinois.

The president of the educational con-
vention now in session in this city, rec
commended at the meeting yesterday that
there be a special commentator of the
head Of the Department of Public In
struction. This savors little of mixing
up politics and education, which is a
decidedly bad mixture. Mr.. Kiehle's term
soon expires and this looks like an effort
to use the educational convention
as bit /, of outside pressure on
Governor Hubbard to re-appoint him.
If the governor chooses to make the ap-
pointment on its merits, that will be one
thing, but it is certainly unseemly on the
part of this convention to forestall the GU
bernatorial action. Why should not they
as we'll commend normal school princip-
ais, university regents, etc? Politics and
education won't mingle with advantage.

The matter Of the pool on southwestern
passenger business then came up in the
form of report by committee of gen
eral passenger agents, appointed for the
purpose some time since. The matter
went no further, however, as the Chicago
& Alton railway voted no to the opening
clause, which stated that such pool was de-
sirable, for without unanimity pool is
impossible. The question of maintained
rates, with penalties, was referred to the
passenger agents, with instructions to re-
port in January. Extended rules govern
ing the transportation of baggage were
adopted. Adjourned to Jan. 3.

New YORK, Dec. 2s.-Upon invitation
of Austin G. Corbin, president of the Long
Island Railroad company, a party of
gentlemen prominently connected with
freight and railway traffic, made trip of
inspection over that road to Sa g Harbor
yesterday. The special train left Long
Island City at 1890 a. M, passed down the
southern or Montauk division and returned
by the Manor and main line, arriving back
at 4:S0 p. IN. The track is in q fine con-
dition and in several cases runs we're made
at speed of sixty miles per hour. Among
the guests were Samuel Sloan, Esq, presi-
dent of the Delaware, Lackawanna & West
ern railroad; Hon. John 81. Starlin and
Rev. D. Taylor. There is belief that
this trip may result in important railroad
changes in using the Long island railroad
to secure a short road to Boston and other
Eastern cities than the present routes now
afford.
