A BOLD CHlCAGO ADMISSION.

of Course That Town Got the Fair by
Political Conspiracy and 10 Proud of It.
From the Ne,c York Sun of This Morning.
John B. King, of the Manufacturers
Warehouse and Trust Company of
Chicago. Kansas City and st. Paul, a
venture connected with the Worlds
Fair, capital $2,OOO.0OO, was in New
York yesterday ON business. He takes
a philosophical interest in the cam
paign in this State, saying that the
people here seem to be just awaken
ing to an understanding that the
Chicagoans reached long ago.
"Mr. Platt gave us the Worlds
Fair" said Mr.. King. "We know all
about that, and that it was for politi-
cal reasons. If he had not taken the
position he did and Senator Fassett
had not obstructed things at Albany,
no power on earth could have pre-
vented New York from getting the
Fair. We realized that New York
was the natural site for an inter-
national exposition. Besides that, it
was the New York Sun which first
proposed the celebration and sug-
gested the form that it should take.
The idea belonged to you, and if poll
tics had not entered into the question
no one could have hoped to get it
away from you. But we wanted it, if
we could get it, of course, and we saw
the advantage given to us by the
opposition of Platt to having a Demo
cratic city get the Fair. We played it
for all it was worth.
''You see that Platt was afraid that
the Exposition scheme would put the
New York Democracy before the coun-
try in way that would net them
popularity and favor. They would be
SO strengthened that he could never
carry the State again. He conferred
with Quay, Dudley, and Yorkes, the
street railroad king of Chicago. They
helped in the deal and fixed things up
SO that they would make a pot of
money. They made the real estate
spectators discount their prospective
profits and pool some money for their
schemes. No one of them complains,
however. Everything is prosperous
and booming. We think Mr. Depew's
$500, 900, 900 low figure for the profits
of our Fair scheme. Our most con-
servative estimators put it at $780,
000 ono

Republican Lies.

The Democratic party has no objec-
tion to criticism of its course on basis
of fact; but it has the strongest objec-
tion to lies and misrepresentation
such as the State Gazette INDUCES in
this morning. When the editor of
that paper wrote the statement that
the change in the Street and Water
Board organization cost Jersey City
and Newark $4,000 year, it is i'm
possible not to feel that he knew what
he asserted was false.
Formerly there were in this city
three commissioners who were paid
$1,000 year each, total $4, 500. Now
there are five at $4,000 each, total
$12,5O0. Net increase $4,000. In
Newark, we believe, the $12, 500 was
all increase. Therefore the total
extra cost to both cities is $50, 500, not
$500 and in return both cities get
efficient service Will the editor of
the State Gazette apologize for the lie?
Again, he says the additional police
conrts in Newark and Jersey City cost
$50, 900. Let us see. One additional
police justice, $500; one clerk, 81, 500;
stationery, say $500, total, $4,000 for
each city, or 1900 for the two, and
not $4,000, as the Gazette alleges.
Net error of the pazette on two items,
$S1, 500. Will the Gazette apologize
for this lie?
Then it has an item alleging that
the salaries of the Mayors of Jersey
City and Newark were increased
within the last two years from $1,000
to 5000. All wrong. The increases
were from So, 500 to $4,000. They were
made, besides, under authority of
Chapter 105 of the Laws of 1889. Will
the Gazette apologize for this lie?
These are not reckless assertions of
ours; they are matters of simple arith-
metic and public record Anyone
can look them up for himself. But
the Gazette's lies are willful and ma
licious fabrications to delude and de-
ceive people who take things on trust
OF such material is the Republican
platform made up.
The Jersey City news., 1891-10-20

OF course we know New York was
the proper place for the Fair,
says he. You invented the
idea. You are the Metropolis
You are altogether the flttest place.
We acknowledge all that. But we
wanted the Fair, and we found that,
for political reasons, Platt and Quay
and others were determined New
York should not have it. or course
we took advantage of the situation
and the Fair became ours. Without
the help of Platt and Fassett, we
never in the world could have got it.
There are two ways of punishing
this crime. One is by sternly crush
ing at the polls the party which per-
petrated it. The people of New York
may be trusted to do this. The other
is by holding aloot from the Fair it.
self. A good deal of nonsense is
talked about National pride, loyalty
to the country at large, the duty OF
taking defeat cheerfully and the neces-
sity of making good show before the
world. In our judgmentall this talk
is of the most fallacious and empty
kind. 1t is grossly wrong in. New
York or New Jersey or other Eastern
men TO condone the crime that has
been committed. 1t is as bad as to
condone any other villainy. The
position of the country before the
world should have been considered
before the opinion of the world was
insulted in locating the Fair.
We shall be more than glad if the
participancy both of New York and
New Jersey in the Fair is restricted
to merely nominal display.
The Jersey City news., 1891-10-20

The People of the East and the Far.
We are glad to see that the mer-
chants and manufacturers of Jersey
City show the proper disposition
towards the Chicago Fair, that is to
say, disposition to leave it severely
alone. The people of New Jersey are
victims, in common with those of New
York, Of the crime by which Thomas
G. Platt, Jacob SIoat Fassett and the
other infamous leaders of the Repub-
lican party stole the Fair from the
Metropolis.
With that impudent complacency
which is characteristic of inciviliza-
tion, ignorance and reckless immoral
ity, John b. King, president of one of
the fake companies which have grown
out of the Fair steal, gives the whole
SNAP" away in this mornings Sun.

LOOK TO THE ASSEMBLY.

There is not much danger of another
Republican Legislature in New Jersey
but nevertheless every citizen should re-
member when he casts his vote thar the
LAST one bankrupted the treasury and rem
dered State tax imminent. The threat
ened danger was averted by Democratic
Legislature, with the aid of Governor
Abbett. and it will not recur while the
State Government remains under similar
control To be on the safe side. no pru-
dent taxpayer should support a Repub-
lican candidate for the Senate or the
Asse nebly.

John Hoey in New Jersey.

HWY IA ANO w OOASCys
The pursuit of John Hoey in the
matter of the alleged frauds upon the
Adams Express Company yesterday
reached into New Jersey. as was
shown by despatch to THE JERSEY
CITY NEWS. 1t is but fair to Mr..
Hoey to say that a man should
be deemed innocent until his guilt is
shown, and too many people have
already jumped to the conclusion
that Mr.. Hoey is guilty upon no basis
save the ex parte statement of his
accusers.
Mr.. Hoey yesterday sent to the
company a letter in which he says
that he has been grossly misrepre-
sented as to the transactions" in ques-
tion; that he invites judicial examina
tion, and, if it shall be found that he
owes the company anything, he will
cheerfully pay.
1t is difficult to understand why, or
how, a man who has so long held a
position of trust, at very liberal
salary, and, without the excuse of
temptation, should SO suddenly fall
from his high estate as Mr.. Hoey is
said to have fallen. Mr.. Hoey is a
wealthy man, and, unless his sup
posed wealth is an illusion, could have
been under no stress that would drive
him into conspiracy and fraud.
That he would, in a moment, topple
over the reputation that for forty
years he had been engaged in build
ing up, is the strangest feature of a
particularly strange affair. 1t at least
warrants a suspension of Judgment
until he has had judicial oppor-
tunityfor rejoinder.
The Board of Trade last night re-
vived. for the hundredth time, the
danger to Jersey City from the powder
boats lying at Black Tom. Will the
Board pardon The NEWS for suggest
ing that that subject has already
been pretty well exploded? If the
Baard keeps on, the public may con-
clude that it, and not the boats, needs
blowing up.

''Only very, very rarely" explained
a charming girl, in conversation with
writer on the Illustrated american,
s'does one ever meet in this country
either divan or divan lounger with
the vaguest knowledge OF correct uses
for the ideal piece OF ! furniture.
Broad, low, deeply and softly tufted,
draped with heavy rug OF smooth
surface, and heaped witt. fluffy pill
lows, it is the apotheosiA physical
comfortableness.
Then this widely travelled young
beauty, who spent several years in
Greece, told most entertainingly OF
her first lesson in sitting on genuine
Turkish couch. 1t was in Stamboul,
the oldest part of Constantinople.
that they went to reception given
by an Armenian lady, but recently
emancipated, and consequently able
to receive general company.
Escorted by the son of Grand
Vizier and beautifully handsome
young Turco- Greek, their sedan
streets. through narrow, treacnerous
alley, past secretive looking doorways
to great arched portal.
One rap, the ancient barrier fell
away and behold! all the pagan
splendor of Haroun- al Raschid was
| suddenly revealed. Lofty and sumpt-
uous apartments stretching away, one
after another, fitted with gorgeous
rugs, carpets OF priceless beauty
| screening the walls, card tables set
here and there. with those tiny tab
| let's of beloved memory heaped with
crystal comfits.
There were present fifty men in
| Eastern dress, and four women--in all
three Europeans and the Armenian
hostess. The men played cards dill
gently, their impassive faces guiltless
Of expression, while the strange
women wandered about examining
the many Oriental treasures of the
vast rooms.
1t was not until the American
mademoiselle approached great
i divan of glowing colors and proceeded
to seat herself that this curious enter
tainment became at all llvened.
Drawing her skirts primly about her,
she sat gingerly upon the very edge,
with two neat little toes carefully
balanced to touch the floor.
Then the young Greeks dignity was
lost in amusement; he laughed and
begged permission to give few les
sons in the art of using a couch. "Sit
on your foot" he commanded; 'curl
it comfortably under you, so. Now be
seated, far back, build wall of cush-
ions about your shoulders, and know
true happiness"
''Once visit the far East, ;" the story
teller added, ''and old prejudices con-
cerning the vulgarity of sitting on
your foot are promptly dissipated.
All Orientals do it, men as we'll as wo
men, and with deftness in managing
the trick it renders ones attitudes
quite as graceful as, and infinitely
more comfortable than, the ordinary
posture"

A TURKISH PRAYER.
Side Lights ON Mohammedanism-
The Pasha's Daughter.

The ceremony of the prayer on this
occasion was singularly impressive.
To witness it we descended a wide
staircase, at the foot of which was
another long, bare, spacious apart
ment, the low ceiling supported by
pillars. 1t was dimly lighted from
above by sparsely hung lamps.
+ About thirty or forty women. in their
house attire, but wearing the long
white veil draped round the head,
face, and shoulders, wives, daughters,
sisters, servants, slaves, and children
white, brown, bronzed, black-were
ranged in keeling rows, touching the
ground, their attitude the embodiment
of self-abasemenU, in presence OF the
one indivisible God they adore.
In the dim light these pros trate
heads. shrouded in their white wells,
looked ghostly enough. The whole
scene was mute and silent as dream.
Only at intervals, from behind a
screen, the voice of the priest broke the
stiffness. and proclaimed, in a weird,
nasal, monotonous chant that Allan
was the one and only God.
Sometimes tho yelled figures rose to
their feet with one accord-Eastern
women are very supple if they are
very fat-then, as the name OF Allan
fell upon their ears, they flung them
selves down in the same uniform
manner, and rocking themselves to
and fro after the manner Of worshipers
in a mosque, laid their faces in the
dust
NY friend, the Pasha's daughter,
was good enough to sit upon the stair
case by my side and act as chorous in
stead of joining in the performance.
After she had explained that
Noise" and ''Jesu Christi and
.'Mohanmed" were all acknowledged
by her faith to have been divinely in
spired, but not divinely born, she
proceeded to expound the Mohamme-
dan theory OF paradise.
But interrupted her-s'I have
been told there is no paradise for the
souls Of Mohamm women.
Your husbands are to have houris to
console them for your loss.
1t did one good to see the scorn OF
the Pasha's daughter at this sugges-
ton. She impaired it in Turkish to
the blandly-smiling Mrs. Djevdet
Pasha. and the pair laughed until the
blue robe or the laGJef SilDpeu Oh Hof
broad shoulders for the twentieth
time.
When they had done laughing, they
informed me that there was no greater
mistake than to suppose that Mo-
hammed excluded women FROM Para
disc. That his own daughter, Fatma,
had been the great expounder of the
Koran, which was written to- guide
women to Paradise by the same path
as the one the men were to follow.
That their husbands had better just
go in search OF the hourisl Only let
them try! Their wives would soon be
