TUE ulyOP'S ABSURD .zPPEAL.

Mayor Grants letter to Licutcnant-Gov-
ernor Jones was rightly characterized by Mr.
Eassett as a "mOSt astounding piece OF lnS0-
lence" OF course, no one who knows the
N,vor can credit him with originating the idea
os sucb an appeal to the Senate, or with the
composition of the letter bearing his signature.
That document is plainly the offspring of an
other mind No one will be mislcd by the
show of yirtuous indignation when lolmS ITS
burden. The Mayors request for special
committee 10 inquire into the McCann charges
is an absurd performance and his prctcnce that
the NcCann testimony was sprung upon the
community and upon him is without the least
foundation. On the contrary. McCann told Il
GOOD deal of his story IN saturday morning
naperS and it was matter of common knowl-
edrs that he would testify Before the Senate
Committee ON that day. Mayor Grants asNer-
tion that mo notice was given to me OF tho
meeting of the committee l. simply childish.
The Committee on Cities Is abundanty able to
take care of this matter. The Mayors letter
VA, referred To that committee yesterday. To
bayc returned II to HIM with the Implied con
tcmpt Of the senate would have been none too
harsh treatment.
I u" NdfoI "dN -'N'" '''
dan, reason 10 understand that he chorShe>
a deep and bitter resentment against the In
ve.,i,ating Committee NJ that his
u,,,b were well founded aid he ask
f,r , Sveetcr revenge or triumph
than would he hi, If, b, ..it committee
and IN the face of the public. he should prove
N,Cann an atiocious and yindictivc liar? And
what b., to prevent such a yndica'Ion. provided
the M1,or D.. Innocent i must be- assumed
that thc committee could extract from him
uothiu. that va, not true and certainly Ill,
Honor would rcpcl the assumption that the
whole truth could do him harm.

At the meeting of the Sinking-Fund Com

posed that the Board should execute lease OF
Castle Garden to the Government at rental
of -. 600 a year, the same that has been paid
by the State Commissioner. This resolution
was voted down, and the question laid over
until another meeting. Now what possible
reason is there for delay in this matter? The
State Commissioners whose only object OF eX-
istence now is to annoy and embarraSs Superin-
tcndent Weber in his work of landing the i'm

Garden Their lease expires to-day. The
place stands idle. 1t is of no practical use to
the city or any one else except the Government.
The Government needs it anu should have it
at once. The Sinkng-Fund Commissioners
are sensible business men and good citizens
and hence their action yesterday was simply
