NEW YopK, March III The Bemi-offi-
oisl announcement is made OF the mstri-
monial engagement of Mr.. Jay Gould
and Mrs. Morris b. Flynn. The gossips
have for several weeks been waiting for
tho official confirmation OF what appeared
at first to be surprising rumor, and
which has nov assumed thu form of act
uslity. Those who know both Mr.. Gould
and MRS. Flynn were surprised to hear
that the financier and the contractors
widow were even acquainted; but the
more intimate friends of Mrs Flynn's
family have known OF the acquaintance
ship, and Of various services Mr.. Gould
had performed for Mrs. Flynn since her
husbands des.h.
Morris Flynn became acquainted with
| Gould while the earlier sections of the
electrical HubwayH were in course or con-
struction. When the subway commits
| sion first took hold tho disposition OF the
Western Union people was to Tight the
matter, which would have been disastrous
to Flynn and his associates. just when
| everybody expected the telegraph interest
to declare war and demonstrate in court
| that the use of subways was impracti-
| CAulC. IL WIS hDupuuObA hAht h4 hA9AoeSAS
| arrangement had been reached; that the
Western Union Company would be stock
holders in the Subway Company and
would hold d very considerable slice OF
stock.
The change had been wrought by the
diplomacy OF Flynn, and was the result
OF personal interviews bstween the little
finanoier and the contractor. politician.
Flynn, following up the advantage he
had gained through a personal scquaint'
ancs with Could, hired largo house op.
posite the Gould place at lrvngton and
went up there TO live.
Flynn died last year mud his estate was
left in discouraging and unfortunate
condition. He had got interested 10 the
street railroad OF Richmond and had in
vested much money there. When HI
died nobody was at hand to take mp tht
work. and If the enterprise had bsor
wound up without regard 70 thu Flynn
interest, tho loss TO the widow would
have been considerable.
At this time abe went 10 Jay Gould
with whom she wsa then we'll acquainted
and asked him for advice and counsel

In the present condition of county
Frances the discussion Of the location
Of new bridge across the Brandywine
must be regarded as premature. The
county debt, bonded and floating, on
October 3lst, 1889, was $3.50 900. At 5
per cent all around the annual interest
on this sum would consume $2S, 495.
Three or four yearly instalments Of this
amount Would build the new bridge, but,
unfortunately, the current Ia flowing
outward from, instead of inward into,
the county treasury. What we want to
do is to lessen or, il We cannot do that,
to keep this outward drain from growing
heavier. This is the first thing to be
accomplished, and the retrenchment that
the taxpayers are now seeking to have
effected in the cost of keeping up the
Jail is the first practical step In this anan-
cial reform. When the time comes that
the county can afford to build the pro-
posed bridge, we are of the opinion thst
the northwestward march Of built-up
Wilmiuaton will have left few advocates
OF the Washington street site. Bat cut
down our debt before spending any more
money outside Of abs olutely necessary
current disbursements.

The alleged Canadian clergyman whom
the Lnthersn Church of Lewisburg, Pa,
had invited to become its pastor, and
whom it was reported would be excluded
under the Guti-oontraet labor act, turns
out to DO IN American citizen instead OF
British subject. 1t was upon intorml-
ton that his father, while tbe son Was
get minor, had resided in Canada and
taken the oath OF allegiance to Great
Britain, that the Treasury Department
ruled him out, Since then it has been
learned that the olergyman's father, ell
though be spent several years in Canada,
never became citizen Of that country
nor forfeited his citizenship OF the United
States, and Consequently there is no legal
impeachment in the way of his sons COM
ing to this country whenever and under
what conditions he pleases. So that in
this particular case The law works NO
hardship, though it is clearly toreisn "a
its intent to construe it as operating to
exclude desirable immigrants while many
undesirable ones are constantly coming
here il spite Of it.
