ILL GOTTEN GAINS.

One OF John Kelley's Friends Defaulter
BROOKLYN, Nov. 15.-The examination into
the affairs of the late Ddward d. Gale revealed
q very bad condition OF affairs. Mr.. Gale was
defaulter 10 the extent OF $62, ,5S3.45. Gale
was attorney for the collection of arrears of
personal taxes, and as the Commissioner shows
there was abundant opportunity for dishonest
gain, Of which he took advantage. He began
his crooked work while Mr.. Green was Con-
troller, but he soon discovered the fact and
withheld Gales salary, and the litigation
which ensued was decided in the Controllers
favor. Gale had to settle and Mr.. Green kept
the AFFAIRS OF his Office under his eyes until Mr..
Kelly succeeded him. Though Gale made no
pretensons to honesty, but on the contrary had
an unenviable record, Mr.. Kelly seems to have
had no suspicion him whatever. Soon after
Gales death he was proclaimed a defaultsr for
$22, ,00e. Surprise was expressed that the
amount was not ten times as much. Though
he had experienced the pangs Of poverty, and
heard men declare on oath in a court that they
would not trust him for the smallest sum he
came to revel in luxuries through his prowess
as pollution of the Tammany stripe. He
had asalary of 900 year, was Judge Dor
ahues favorite referee, which, he used to say,
was worth 5 5000 a year, and in addition TO
these sums his income was swollen to the ex-
tent of what he is now shown to have stolen
from the city. What he did with his money
many creditors are anxious to ascertain, and an
effort will soon be made in the courts He
died poor.

PANAMA, Nov. THE negotiations COM
menced by the Chilan government with
Garcia Calderon Through the meditation Of Mr..
Logan are reported to have finally terminated,
and Calderon is said to have returned to his
place OF confinement at Angel. It is believed
that he at first agreed to cede to Chilli, Tara
paca, Tacna and AFRICA to the line of the river
Sama, but afterwarda changed his opinion and
was only disposed to cede the first of these pro-
vinces to the line of the valley of Carmones.
This put a temporary termination to the con-
sequences. Subsequently they were renewed,
having as basis the conditional surrender oi
Tacna and africa, the ultimate ownership to be
determined by the United States at the expira.

The Beecher Trial
Thee trial of the suit of Samuel Wilkesen
aginst Rev. H. w. Beecher was continued to-
day
John r. Howard was recalled and testified
that the publishing firm of Ford & Co. has
certainly paid Beecher royalties to the amount
of $3047.60. During the winter of 1872
Beecher wrote about three chapters or one
half OF the second volume. AS the firm re-
ceived copy from Beecher it was sent to the
printers and put in form. There was no delay
on the part of the firm. The firm would have
received as much from the second volume Of
the Life of Christ as they did from the first,
and from both volumes they would have re-
ceiyed $135, ,969.30.
On cross examination the witness said that
between January 6 and July 6, 1882, the firm
printed 10000 books.
AT the conclusion of the plaintiff testimony

case, but he would grant him until tomorrow

limitation of the contract, etherw Use he would
have to dismiss the case.

while he is still political power, don't
believe he has the slightest attention of ever
again entering the arena of active politics. His
age would preclude that"
"ISthere any truth in the stories OF his ill
health, paralysis, etc."
"No, sir; he is hale and hearty. His left
arm, owing 10 an injury, has somewhat wasted
away, but paralysis had nothing to do with it.
Judge Jere. Black, his legal adviser, recently
told me that Gov. Tilden was never more Wig

Perilous Voyage Of the Henry 3. cieaves
Of Portland.
NEW YORK, Nov. 15.-The brig Henry B.
Cleaves, of Portland, reached this port yester-
day after severe encounter with wind and
water. She left Matanzas on October n and
was at once beset by northerly winas, which
continued with uninterrupted violence all
through the passage. "We had no rest from
the time we got fairly under way" aid Cap
tain Charleson. "Squall after squan, the sea
always running high and threatening to sweep
our decks. All went well for a sFace, but
soon our sails were torn away by the gale, and
although we were ready to replace them II was
hard work keeping the vessel in good shape.
On the night of November we encountered
severe storm. The wind beat the sea into
lather and the water came surging about US
as if on the point of ca pszing the ship. We
get along all right, though, till morning, when
the force of the gale increased Every stitch
of canvas that was exposed was torn away, and
the sea came pounding down upon the deck
as though it would crush it in. AT last we
were obliged to heave to under stormsails, but
the sea tossed us about and brake over the

swell struck us that made the vessel shiyer
from stem to stern, and presently another wave

the deck again it tore off the, hatchway and
smashed the skylights to pieces Then the
water poured inside. got all the hands to
work, but it was hard to make much headway
with anything in the face of that gale and
with such sea surging about us. The water
in the cabin was many feet deep. We set
about boarding up the hole in the side through
which the water had free entry. By dint of
hard work and waiting for our chances we
managed to get up some framework that shut
out the swell, and then we were able to be-
gin to bale out the water 1t had worked
sad havoc with everything. 1t had snapped
the barometer from the wall and shiyered it to
pieces. 1t had filled the after-house like a
tank, and ruined the charts and ships papers
and smashed the nautical instruments Some
OF the contents of the cabin had been washed
out through the hole in the side and every
thing was topsy y-turvy. 1T was long time be-
fore we were able to get things ship-shape.'.
Captain Charleson says that the winds from
the north were blowing through the rest of
the passage, but he managed to reach this port
with no further serious trouble and only one of
his men. the steward, sustained any severe
