LACY JUMPS ON EARLY.
The Generals Private and Public Record
Bitterly Assaulted.

Bitterly Assaulted.
~FREDERIcKsDURa, Va, July 14.-Ir
response to the interview with Gen
EARLY, which has appeared all over
the country, denying that Gen. r. T..
Lee ever told Maj. Horace Lucy that
If he (Lee) retired from command he
would recommend Gen. Malone MS
his successor, Mai. Lacy has published
a card, III which he deals not gently
with Gen: Early's record, public and
private, both before and since the
war.
In his interview Gen. EARLY de-
nounced Mai. Lacy as liar and
crank. In his reply Maj. Lacy says
In substance that Earloy's non-recol-
lection of what passed at Richmond
ut the unveilingof the Lee monument
between himself and Early, concern
ing tho conversation with Lacy, is
proof of his debauched condition on
that day. He says Early is not only
u miserable liar, but his private char
actcr is i'll keeping with the lie which
has stamped his brow over since this
controversy began, and that what he
said was literally true.
1Hen Lacy turns Oh EarlyS mill
tary career, and says that whether in
tent, ut drill OF on the parade he was
invariably drunk, and the only noto-
r1ety he has attained since the war
was his lovo for gambling houses and
other places of ill-fame, and his con-
cublnage with negress.
His card closes in this manner: II
am a Democrat, and have no sympa-
thy with Malone OF his tactics, andI
am opposed to him as politician.
In justice to myself I feel I should
relterate what L have already said,
and regret that 1 have to deal with
this miserable cur, who is trying to
exchange drunkenness for bravery"

The Power Money.

What an influence for good CT evil
is eXertcd by the proper or improper
use Of money. It seems to be tho
first essential of modern life. Sad
indeed is the lot of that man or that
woman without money and without
friends. Especially in cases of sick
ness is the need of money felt most
pressingly and yet oven the rich with
all their money fall into state of
poor health and die, whereas if their
money was rightly expended and the
proper remedies applied they might
regain health and strength.
Il. A. Clark, Atlanta, Ga, says: 81
spent four hundred and eighty dol
lars i'll gold to cure me of terrible
blood poison that affected my limbs
and nose and body, with running
ulcers. One months treatment OF
b. B. B. healed the ulcers, restored
my appetite, strengthened my kidneys
and added 81 pounds to weight"
Still, in spite of this and much
other testimony there are many who
refuse to try tho remedy, seeming to
prefer to pay large fees to physicians,
or visit distant springs in vain hopes
OF recovery: The great truth how
ever, ever shines brightly and that is,
that no one who ever gave B. B. B.
lBotanic Blood Balm) a trial ever
found disappointment therein.
0. II. Rudolph, Talladega, Fla,
writes: Il had blood disease for six
years, but nothing benefited me,
although l paid two hundred and
fifty dollars for treatment. at last
tried b. B. 3. and found it a quick
and cheap blood purifier.

THE NURSE GOT DRUNK

Thirty Hours.

And Led Three-Year-Old Child from
Groggery to GroggerY for
Thirty Hours.
The little child of Painter Leonard
whom the nurse. Ellen Hanna, took for a
walk on Wednesday, was found in Bay
onne after THE JERSEY CITY NEWS went
to press yesterday. The woman had, as
was suspected, gone off on spree, and
late yesterday afternoon she was seen
staggering about the Bergen Point
section clutching tightly in her hand the
little boys chubby, dimpled fist. She
was induced to leave the youngster in
the care of Mrs. McCabe, of Cottage
street, a worthy woman, whose motherly
woman afterwards returned to Mrs. Nc
Cabe's house and demanded possession of
the lad. AS she was in condition which
made her almost unable to take care of
herself her demand was refused.
Then she asked Chief of Police Nc
Neill to assist her in recovering the boy,
claiming he was her own. The Chief told
her that Mrs. McCabe would take good
care of the child. and she could regain
possession of him in the morning. She
went away dissatisfied and has not since
been seen.
When the Bayonne police were noti-
fed of the disappearance of the woman
and child from Jersey City they reported
the wonnan's movements at Bergen
Point and Mr.. Leonard went to that
place and brought the little one back to
its home on Communipaw avenue
The child had been wandering with the
drunken nurse for twenty-eight or thirty

The County Commissioners VIII Expend
$4,000 There.
At a meeting of the Township Commit
tee of Kearny, two weeks ago. resolu-
tion was adopted calling the attention Of
the Hudson County Park Commissioners
to the many desirable sites for the loca-
tion of a public park in the township, and
setting forth the advisabIlity of locating
such park in this end of Hudson county.
Chairman Davey, of the committee, has
received q notice from the Commits
sioners that the sum of $53, 700 has been
set aside by the Board for the formation
and maintenance of public park in
Kearny Township. On Saturday after
noon joint meeting of the members of
the Township Committee of Kearny
and the Board of Park Commissioners
will he held at the rooms of the Commis-
sioners for the purpose of discussing the
matter in all its details, and the considera-
tion of suggestions for the exact location
of the site. Several tracts are spoken of,
among them being the old Dukes estate,
the Pomeroy estate and the old homestead
of General Kearny. The latter place is
more favorably spoken of than the others,
as the grounds are centrally located and
easy of access. The old chateau is splen-
didly adapted for the use of public offices
and town hall, while the place is sur
rounded by good roads. and will shortly
be cut through by the opening of Belgrove

THAT COAL CONTRACT
Mr.. Dugan Makes a Queer
Explanation About 1t.
THE MAYOR MAKES DENIAL.
The Sense Of Dugan's Statement
is that the Board Wanted 10
Give Coyle the Contract.
HE MAYOR MAKES DENIAL.

Street and Water Commissioner
Edward A. Dugan talked yesterday
about, the awarding of the 10, 600 ton coal
contract to ex-Freeholder Coyle when
Edwards & Walker made d bid that was
81, 400 lower on the whole. which was ex-
posed in THE JERSEY CITY NEWS of
yesterday.
he said that Kearney, who has charge
of the yards at Belleyille, had received
some coal from Coyle before the contract
was awarded, and that he had declared it
to be the best coal he had ever received.
After the committee had solicited bids,
the Board decided to vote the coal from
him in spite of the lower bid of Edwards
walker, and their guarantee of a full
hlment OF the contract. and so they
awarded the contract to Coyle as the
Lowest bidder quality considered"
He remembered that Edwards had
shown letter containing a guarantee of
the Lehigh Company that the firm of
Edwards & Walker could deliver the
coal if they received the contract; but
then the Commissioners did not believe
that the firm could supply the coal.
The Commissioners evidently did not
want to believe it.
Mayor Cleveland was interviewed as to
his part in getting the contract for Coyie.
He said:--
Il have just read the article, and it is
entirely aud absolutely false SO far as
my name is used in connection with it.
Did Coal Dealer Edwards ever show
you that letter from the Lehigh Valley
Coal Company, guaranteeing to furnish
the desired quality of coal?"
II do not know coal dealer by the
name of Edwards. and do not remember
ever having seen or held conversation
with such man"
His Honor seemed nettled, and refused
TO say anything further about the matter.
