Filter Feeling GrOwtns Out OF the Police
Siuddle In Trey
There was an intensely bitter feeling in
Troy. N. y, Tuesday against General
Carr because it was understood that he
was ready on short notice to attack the
station houses with military and disposses
tho old police force, who dispute the legal
ity of the appointment of their
SUCCESSORS. In an article in tho Press yes
terday Secretary of State Carr and his son
Major William G. Carr, were consured in
very strong terms, the stricturos upon tho
secretary of state being quite bitter. Tho
Daily Telegram, Senator MacArii:ur's
paper, also criticised the warlike measures
proposed by General Carr. This morning
Colonel Jerome 3. Parmenter, editor of
the Troy Press, entered cigar store oppo-
site his Office. Major Carr was in the
store at the time, but Colonel Parmenter
did not see him. Carr pulled off his over.
coat and, approaching Parmenter, who
was lighting cigar, in an abusive tone
c.id:
"I demand ratract:cn of tho article
published in the Press yesterday {.
81 have nothing to retract," replied
Mr.. Harmcntcr. and he prepared to leave
the store. AS he turned his head Carr
drew a rawhidc from his pocket and dealt
Parmenter a heavy blow, but beyond
cutting his hat it did not harm him. Par
menter closed with his antagonist but they
were socn separated. Carr threatened to
kill Parmenter il he was again assai!ed in
the paper.
There is little change in tho police sta
tion to-day. The old force remains in
possession and will resist all efforts at dis
Judgement except in a legal way. Tho
nately has very little influence, was very
inccndiary last night. 1t assails the cool
headed citizens vino prevented the calling
out of the military and insists that tho
station houses must be taken at any cost.
Several appointees on the new force have
resigned.

An awkward Result Likely.


MIR. Whistler, the well-known London
artist not long ago had the i'll luck to be
sold out by the sheriff. Away went the
blue ard yellow chairs, the rickety en-
brcidered curtains and the dainty oriental
bric-a brac Of the room which Mr.. Oscar
Wilde has described as livery joyous"
But when he saw it stripped and bare. the
artist seized his brush and cried: "Now,
to prevent this unpleasant catastrophe oc-
curing gain, I mean to have something
strictly permanent And thereupon he
painted chairs and tables upon the walls,
and flowing curtains, pictures upon easels
luxurious divans, and quaint cabinets, aud
thus again made Of his room "harmony
in blue and gold" Very clever idea, no
doubt, but when !. stranger, little near

The Democrats can boast of two model
committees-Hensol's state committee and
Harrity's city committee. Both opened

with surplus in the treasury. That sort
of party committees are eminently useful,
whilc the old machine sort are neither or
