ton, declared it carried, and named the Com

mittee.
So much for the preliminary machine work.
Up to this point Colonel Jonas French had Sc
lected all the committees, all the Convention
officers and all the State officers, fixed the reso-
lutions, and perpetuated himself as chairman OF
the State Committee. Then Mr. Edward Avery
came out and delivered prepared speech as
permanent chairman. This over he called upon
General p. A. Collins, whom Colonel Jonas
French had selected to make speech renoml-
mating Governor Butler. 1t is possible but not
probable that William A. Simmons had not
been selected by Colonel Jonas French to make
an inpromptu speech committed to memory,
seconding the nomination. And after all this
successful machine work by his Adjutant-Gen-
eral the Commander in Chief himself came
forward and patted his lieutenant on the back.
Well he might. Never was machinery so care
fully put up, so we'll adjusted in all its parts, so
thoroughly fabricated and withal so sBilfully
handled. If party must have a Boss " it Is
well that II should have one who understands
his business and toerates no nonsense The
Massachusetts, Democrats have put themselves
under the rule Of one of that kind. They stood
out against him year or two, but when they
found that under him as taskmaster there were
fieshpots to be had they bent their necks and
accepted the humiliation and disgrace. Less
than scoru protested against the autocrntic
methods by which Colonel French took for his
master absolute control Of the Con entiOn and
the party, and there was not one even of these
but that surrendered his independence in the

| THE ASSISTANT BISHOP OF METZ YORK.
The whole Episcopal Church is to be con-
| graduated Oh the Rev. Dr. Henry G. POtter's
acceptance of the Assistant BishOpric of the
Metropolitan Diocese. 1t is generally under
stood that he will ultimately succeed to the
Office of Bishop; but the public sincerely hopes
that, for many years to come, he Will be aided
in his difficult duties by the wise counsel and
experience of the present revered incumbent
The selection of DR.. Potter is almost ideally fit.
No other clergyman perhaps, of the many dis
tiuguished nominees before the convention, so
well meets all the present requirements of the
diocese The Episcopal Church here under
the wise and prudent administration OF Bishop
Horatio Potter presents q history of almost I'M
varying prosperity. AS an executive officer he
has displayed great tact in dealing with the
clashlng opinions and schools of thought pre-
valent among EpiscOpalians. The Church OF
which he is Bishop, and the community, have
none but the kindliest feelings for the vener-
able prelate, who after having fought the good
fight for many years. is now about to lay down
the more active duties of his holy Office
1t is fortunate thing.for tue Church that it has
selected to perform those duties man who will
continue the same policy. DR.. Henry c. Potter
is generally ranked among the moderate Broad
Churchmen but it may DO stated on authority
that it will be his aim, Bishop, to allow the wild
est possible liberation to all schools of thought
in the Church. The keynote of his administra-
ton will be work, and the most practical kind of
work He will seek to make the Church which
he represents a living force in the world OF to-
day 1t will he his aim to make men forget the
IL i; Co. or bau nfta
ated them in the past, and to put before them
the vast and complex problems of the modern
work-a.day world He will try to make the
Episcopal Church not only the church Of the
rich and the learned, but the church as we'll
of the poor and the simple.
Those who have followed DR.. Potter in his
career as the rector of a great city church have
no fear that he will not be successful also in
the wider sphere Of labor to which he has been
called. The responsibilities that rest upon him
are great, not only to his Church, but to the
community. He assumes Office at time when
there are loud calls for q reinstatement Of the
traditional theology Of the Church, which will
be in harmony with the needs and aspirations
of modern life. While he remembers that he
is the mouthpiece of an historic and most con-
servatve Church, he cannot forget that he is
also set to bring that Church's message to the
hearts and c0nsciences of the men of the Nine
teenth Century.

THE GREAT TROTT7NG MATCH.

This will be noteworthy day for sport
loving New Workers. The Seawanhaka
Yacht Club will sail CorinthIan regatta, tie
American Jockey Club will open its autumn
meeting at Jerome Park with six attractive
contests and on the old Fleetwood track. now
the course of the Gentemen's Driving Associa-
tlon the two fastest trotters in the world now
used for racing, will meet. 1t is to be re-
GREETED that two such impoT tant racing affairs
as the Jerome Park opening day and the great
match between st. Julien and JAY Eye-See
conflict. Thousands of people want to see
both, but they cannot be in two places at once.
The effect will probably be a comparatively
small gathering at Jerome, for the match be-
tween the trotting champions is exciting more
interest than anything of the sort has aroused
for many years. There have been running
races in abundance near New York this year,
almost a surfeit of them while such matches as
that 10 be decided at Fleetwood must in the
nature of things be rare. This will be the chief
subject of talk to-day everywhere that trOtting
finds favor, and that is pretty much all over the
country.
If the wonderful fve-year old defeats the
veteran st. Julien, the lovers Of trotting will
turn to Mr.. Vanderbilt with the hope that he
may consent to put Maud s., the retired Queen
of che Turf, against the unrlyalled yOungster.
But Mr. Vanderbilt may want them both in his
stable, or Mr.. Bonner may have made mp his
mind to own Jay-Eye-See. If both Nlr. Van
derbilt and Mr.. Bonner try to get him-and
this is not unlkely--bis market value will
reach higher fl CURES than any horse in Amer
lea ever touched.

THE SCIENTIFIC COLONIES.

Three out of the twelve Arctic expedition
| employed during the last year in meteorologi-
cal work between the sixtieth and the eighty
second parallels of latitude have returneds
| The Austrian party was the first to abandon
| its station. It's work on Jan Mayen Island
had been completely successful, and the health
of all members Of the scientific corps had re-
manned excellent, not single trace OF scurvy
having appeared. The Swedish colony arrived
at Gothenburg on the 9th instant, having oc-
! cupied, with single exception, the northern
most station In the circuit of international OBJ
servation. This was In Ice Fiord, Spitzbergen.
Work was begun on August Is, last year, by
six scientific observers and as many sailors
The landing-place was narrow beach pro-
ected by precipitous cliffs, and the stores
house, station and observatory were four miles
inland. During twelve months there was a
continuous system of watches day and night,
and observations were taken every hour. The
cold was intense, but as the men were well
supplied with provisions and fuel, their health
did not suffer. The same steamer which had
carried them to Spitzbergen called for them
about the middle of August and conveyed them
in safety to Sweden.
The failure of the Dutch expedition to reach
its destination at Dickson Harbor and the
consequent loss of the Varna in the Kara Sea,
have not interfered ma erially with the scien-
tific work assigned to the party. Mail adviceS
from Hammerfest, where the shipwrecked ex-
plorers and crew arrived on September 3, state
that the regular observations were taken from
hour to hour on board the Varna, and that, with
the exception of magnetic researches, the party
have every reason to be satisfied with the re-
suits of their labors The ship was caught in
the ice during August, 1882, and it became
apparent that what work was to be done at
all must be done near Waigatz Island, near
the sixty-third rather than the eighty-thrd
meridian. The party made the best of their
misadventure, aid, although the ship was terri
bly, wrenched by the ice on Christmas eve, it
was not abandoned until July 81, when it went
down. During this periodthe scientific work went
on without interruption, and in retreatlng to
the Dijmphna the observers carried their records
with them. They have in this way rendered
useful service, although they have returned
without their ship and never reached their des-
dnation.
No tidings have yet been received from the
German colony at Cumberland Sound, the two
American stations at Point Barrow and Lady
Franklin Bay and the Russian parties IN ST.
IBERIA. The remaining points of Arctic obser-
walton are in British Columbia, Greenland,
Norway and Sweden, and there is every reason
to believe that the scientific work was con-
Quoted with regularity and success in every
instance. No intelligence has been received
from the German and French parties at work
in the Southern Hemisphere.

The recent disclosures Of theft in several
departments of the City Government throw
heavy responsibility upon the District Attor-
ney's Office. 1t is evident that the bulk OF the
stealing could not have been done if the dis
honesty of the clerks had not been supple
mented by dishonesty on the part of the
property-owner who paid half of their water
rates or assessments, and took receipts for the
whole Are Aiken, Bellows and Carroll the
only ones who will be arraigned The Mayor
and other officials say it ali rests with tue
District-Attorney. The public will hope to
hear from Mr.. McKeon soon. II cases sutfi-
Gent to Justify trial cannot be made out
against these unprincipled taxpayers their
names and the circumstances attending their
collision with the clerks should be made
known to the entire community. Honest bust
ness men will then know against whom they
should be on their guard.

Explanations touching the failure of the
Greedy Relief Expedition come in slowly, and
they are not particularly satisfactory when they
are received. The report of Commander
Wildes, of the Yantic, the Proteus's tender, has
now been made public by the Navy Depart
ment. Ii throws no light OH important points.
Nobody holds Commander Wildes responsible
in any way for the management of the Proteus |;
bit in al earlier dispatch he announced that
tlat vessel had been badly handled, and that
the crew had behaved shamefulv. 1t was not
unnatural to hope, therefore, that a fuller stale
ment from him would contain some facts v hich
might explain his grave assertions. In the be-
lief which Commander Wildes expresses, that
Arctic explorations are not tri1ng matters, all
weil-informed persons will heartily join. Per-
sonal experience is not needed to enable one to
reach that conclusion.

A Child Falls from a Train,

Passengers who came in on the stage
this morning brought the news that last
night as the passenger train coming west
was speeding along just this side of Plea
eho station, a child eighteen months old,
belonging to family of German immi-
grants, who were in the second of the
two immigrant cars, walked out of the
open door and Off the platform. A man
occupying the last bunk in the rear OF
the last car saw it as it passed to the
door and called out aud woman who
was on the platform or near the
door, sprang toward the child
to save it but it went off over the
steps, and she Just saved her
self from falling of in her efforts to save
it. 1t seems that the mother was in her
bunk and the child had been left on the
floor of the car, probably in the care of
his father, who must have neglected it.
The alarm was given and the train stop
ped when it backed up the track for
about six miles. Parties were put out to
hunt the sides of the track for the
missing child. 1t was OF no avail; it
could not be found either dead or alive.
The parents were wild with grief They
were left behind in the hope that the
child would be recovered this morning.

duty for Argument. A direct answer to
the questions addressed TO him by the
HERALD could very well have been com
pressed into half column. He initiates
Mr.. Humphreys in declining to say
whether or no the handwriting Of an
employe Of the railway company figured
on the proof sheets Of the new fare
schedule.
just here we must revert TO Mr.. Foote,
and we cannot forbear the conclusion
that it was as much his duty as It was
that of the Mcssrs. Carpenter and Hum
phreys to see that no railway employe
had aught to do with the printing of the
schedule.
While we SEQ little in the letter OF
Mr.. Carpenter save glittering general
itiesand invectiye pushed to the extreme,
the majority of the Railway Commission
have certainly done nothing upon which
an impeachment could bo founded, nor is
there anything in their conduct which
could justify the excited clamor for n
special session Of the Legislature.
