Sir: see in Tho Tribune Of this morning the fol-
lowing relating TO the lid Congress District:
Even Rober: ID. Benedict who In his dlsappont-
ment at not securing the nomination resigned from
the craftsmanship Of the Campaign Committee OF the
Twentieth Ward, has rccOnsidered that action and VIII
do all in his power for Mr.. Wallace's election
The statement is erroneous. ] rendered my rese-
nation OF The Craftsmanship Of the Campaign Com
mttee Of the Twentieth Ward from feeling of dis
appointment but because 1t seemed 10 me that, as
had announced my determination neither to support
nor vote for Mr. Wallace my remaining chairman
might embarrass the committee in its work for IIar-
rson aud Miller and the city and county ticket. The
committee has requested me 10 withdraw my fes'gna-
ti0n, and have done But IL is with perfect
understanding that l have In no respect changed my
position / support neither Mr.. Wallace nor Nr.

The general bond market was dull and ir-

Is directed to the fact that all the incomes are
dated July /, 1887, and that the first coupon
on them, payable if earned" is
for eighteen months ending December

earnings for the twelve months ended June 80
1883, which included the period of the strike

The Police Commissioners arc not much troubled
by the fact that in few of Che uptown election
districts moro men have registered than can well
vote within the legal ten hours on November o. In
the Thirfy-sccond Election District OF the AAlld AS
sembly District OH men have been registered AS
a rule votes cannot be received at polling place on
Election Day faster than ono minute, and at that
ratio only 600 men could vote between the hours Of
a. m. and y. m, although in one Harlem district
two years ago 600 men voted. IL is possible, there
FORE that In the district mentioned as many as 400
mon may be practically DISTINGUISHED because men
who get to the polls ahead OF them may not be able
to vote fast enough.
In the Twenty Election District OF the Same
Assembly District GEO men have registered. Tho
only other district in which more than GOO names
are the registry books is the Second Election Dis
trict of the XXIIId Assembly District. There Col
men have registered. In each Of several other dis
tricts the names the books exceed 500 Tho
election law authorizes the Police Board to divide
an election district only after tho average number
of In the district during two years exceeds 400
President French, of the Police Board, said yester-
day that the only legal way out OF the present
difficulty was to instruct the inspectors OF election to
receive the votes rapidly as possible 1t Is too
late change the law that new polling places
can be provided in any districts and the courts prob
In any part of the city, Commissioner Voorhls said
that an effort might be made to give the inspectors
