A Thief Gets Away With Some Sur
qical Tools.

A theft took place last night which in
dicates that there is foreign "talent" in
the city. AS the salvation army was
filing out of its barracks, after O'Clock
last night. DIR. w. w. Hitchcock drove
up to Charley Gassen's meat market on
Spring street. He was accompanied by
his wife and daughter, and in the buggy
there was also a one-handled black
leather gripsack containing $500 worth
of surgical instruments. DIR. Hitchcock
left the buggy in charge of the ladies
while he entered the market to order
meat. During his absence thief alb
stracted the bag from the buggy, with
out attracting the attention of either
Mrs. Hitchcock or her daughter, and
escaped. 1t was only when the physi-
clan came out of the butcher shop that
he became aware of his loss, which he
Immediately reported to the chief of po-
lice. The whole detective corps was i'm
mediately sent out to hunt up the bold
larcenist, but at last accounts no clue
had been found.

MUNICIPAL REFORM.
Some Views Advanced by Cores
pondent.


EDITORS HERALD: An honest elec
ton will not insure an honest officer,
though the reverse is true.
Ii we enforce the honest and economi-
cal administration of the offices, the Of
hce-seeker can not afford to pay for an
election.
The evil of paying political debts with
tat salaries needs little airing, in the
shape of publication in the newspapers
OF ltemized pay-rolls and expert accounts
or the adoption of civil service reform
to bring around a decided change for the
better, if not an entire cure.
Brlbes and jobs are more insidious ;
eternal vigilance and sure and swift
justice to the boodler, when the proof
is positive, are elements that very much
disturb the peace and guilt of this class
Of gentry.
Who will do the viligance act, etc. :?
The present administration OF city and
county government is so notoriously
bad that this question is solved by q
glance at the HERALD this morning in
the report of the mass meeting called by
the municipal reform association.
Citizen leagues with committees to
watch our servants in office, will be
quite numerous ere long, and many of
our citizens will form a committee of
one to do considerable watching on their
own account.
A citizens league in Chicago was the
means of landing the county commits
sioners of Cook county in the peniten-
tiary, and such an organization can be
host to itself as we'll as to the SUR
rounding vicinage, if the members are
active and mean business.
The retirement of three from the
board of supervisors, as the incomplete
election returns now show, at the cleo
tion just past. and of the entire council
at the election just at hand, give hope
for some Improvement and we trust
will have the effect of reducing the state
and county tax next year, should the
state again lowerits requirement twenty
cents on the $100 valuation. J.J. S.

rs STANLEY A LIAR?
HIS AFRICAN COMPANIONS MAKE
HIM OUT SUCH.
Lieutenant Troup Makes Another State
ment-Herbert Ward Gives Damaging
Testimony-Stanley Banqueted.
Associated Press Dispatches.

aSsOclateu ITesS Dlspatcnes.
BosToN, Nov. 8.-Lieutentant Troup
again talked today about Stanley's latest
statements. He denies that there was,
while he was in the Yambuya camps,
any log book or other records of "cruel-
ties" signed by him. Stanley's insinu-
ations that he (Troup) was influenced
by Bartelot's family not to disclose the
affairs at Yambuya, is utterly false.
Stanley has failed to make any new
charges, and has not brought any proof
that he (Troup) acted contrary to his
written instructions.
LONDON, Nov. S.-The Sunday Times
prints an interview with Herbert Ward
who declares that he never saw Bartelot
commit any acts refecting on his honor.
or that Stanley had not committed.
He was shocked that such personalities
had been published, and sorry to think
stanley, in defending himself, should
seek to embroil him (Ward) in quarrel
lacking every sentiment of chivalry for
the dead and consideration for the liv-
ing. Speaking from his own
knowledge of Bartelot, he denies
that he used excessive cruelty.
He says Stanley, in his opinion, fails to
attribute the blame for the disaster to
the rear guard, where it should be laid,
namely, upon Jansen, administrator oi
the Congo state, who neglected to send
a steamer up to the camp. Had this
been done, everything would have been
saved.
New York, Nov. S.-Stanley was the
guest of honor tonight at dinner at the
Union League giten by Edward d.
Quintard to the Stanley club. Many
prominent men were present, among
them Chauncey Depew, Murat Hal
stead, General Greeley and Senator
Hawley. Several speeches in pleas
ant vein were made, and the health OF
Mrs. Stanley drank.

WEST POINT CADETS.
SEPTEMBER APPOINTEES AT A
DISADVANTAGE,
Juvenile Gunners Practicing with Can
non That Are Liable to Burst-Some
Have Already Exploded.
Associated Press Dispatches.

Associated Press Dispatches.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 8.-Colonel Will
son, superintendent of West Point mill
tary academy, in his yearly report says :
There were 294 cadets at the academy
September 1, 1889. Since that date the
loss has been eight by resignation,
twenty-five by discharge, two by death,
and fifty-four by graduation. In the
meantime there have been admitted
eighty-one new cadets, making the total
at the present time 289, four of whom
were admitted September l, 1890.
Colonel Wilson makes a point of the
disadvantage under which candidates
who enter in September are placed,
from lack of the drill and instruction
which their more fortunate classmates
have acquired during the summer
encampments. He earnestly urges, ex-
cept under extraordinary circumstances,
that no further September appointments
be made, and that June candidates be
notified sufficiently in advance of report
ing, to permit them to prepare for ex-
aminations.
The condition of the corps of cadets,
as regards drill, discipline and instruc-
tions, has been excellent during the
year. The health of the command has
been less favorable than usual, and upon
examination it was found necessary to
recommend extensive Improvements in
the sewerage and plumbing.
In view of the limited period
allowed for field artillery drill,
it is urgently recommended that
another battery of new 2-l0 inch field
guns be supplied to the academy. The
seacoast and siege batteries are also
reported to be in bad condition, and
three guns burst during the year, fortu-
nately without serious results. Those
which supplied their places are old guns
used during the rebellion, and the super
intendent says it would be criminal on
his part to endanger the lives of the
cadets by practicing with these obsolete
pieces, and he recommends that the new
five-inch breech-loading steel guns be
furnished. He says also that battery
instruction should be placed upon an
independent footing, and fifty horses and
thirty artillerymen should be furnished.

The Highest Jump Yet.

CHICAGO. Nov. 8.-The American
horse show closed tonight before large
audience. The feature of the evening
was the jumping contest between the
Canadian horse Roseberry and the
American horse Filemaker. The latter
in attempting to make six foot eleven
inch jump, fell and seriously injured
his rider, Potter. The next attempt
was at seven feet one and three-quarter
inches, half an inch higher than File
makers world-beating record on Thurs-
day evening. Roseberry was ridden in
excellent form, and at the very first
trial cleared the poles, the horse barely
grazing with one of his feet.

THE OLD NAMES BEST.
A Street BY Any Other Name Will
Not Be So Well Known.

The mayor filed a message with the
city clerk yesterday fer presentation to
the council on Monday, returning un-
signed the ordinance Changing the
names OF certain streets and avenues in
the city of Los Angeles" Mayor Haz-
ard does not approve of continually
changing the names OF old established
streets, and thinks that under no cir
cumstances should change be made
except when one continued street is
called by two names in different parts.
He deprecates the practice that has OBJ
tanned under the present administra-
ton of changing the familiar names
without any apparent reason, thereby
bewildering everybody.
