Its effect was almost Immediately apparent in
the signature by the Governor of the bill au-
thorizing the city of Brooklyn to purchase the

that the bill contains u job by which the Brook

Ministers on all matters connected with the cur

question on which they propose retain their free

for supplementary grants to the War Department.

The Tammany whip is already cracking
about the ears of Police Commissioner Mac
Lean. On Wednesday he joined with Com
missioner McClave (Rep) in voting to rescind
the resolution designed to hamper policemen in
getting evidence of violations of the Excise
law. Last evening he was dropped from the
Tammany General Committee, for the osten-
sible reason that he had not paid his dues.
This action was pushed through by Barney
Martin, a brother of Police Commissioner Mar
tin.
Extravaganza is likely to have free course
in Congress whenever River and IIarbor bill
Is under way. On its face the present bill calls
for appropriations of more than S2l 600 900.
This is not quite so large as the amount car
ried in the bill which President Cleveland in
1858, permitted to become law without his
signature; yet for House that prides itself
on economy it would not seem to err on the
side of restraint. But it was pointed ont yes
