ALBANY. n. Y, September 16.-A CON-
mittee sent by the National Democratic
Committee, and comprising Hon. Nelson
Smith, j. Schoenhof, +. Ellery Anderson,
and Edward McSweeney, called on
Commissioner Peck, of the State Bu-
reau Of Labor Statistics, this afternoon and
lahored with him for over an hour TO Sc
cure the names of tho manufacturers le-
porting TO him the effect OF the tariff on
their respective industries. They also
asked to see the individual returns, but
Mr. Peck held to his original statement
that he would show nothing but what
was contained IN his full annual report.
Mr.. Smith acted as spokesman, and when
Mr.. Anderson interrupted Commissioners
Peck said that If Ar. Anderson did not
keep quiet he would refuse TO have any
thing to do with the committee. He
would not recognize Mr.. Anderson in any
way. The upshot Of the matter was that
the committee left Tor New York without
finding out anything at all.
Police-Justice Guttman late this after
noon issued warrants for the arrest OF
Commissioner Peck and his stenographer,
A. Rodgers, charging the Commissioner
with misdemeanor III burning public re-
cords. consisting Of circulars collected by
him, and from which he prepared his re-
port on the effect Of the tariff on wages
and production.
The warrants were issued under the
State Code. after proceedings before Judge
Guttman to-day behind closed doors.
William Dennison, ianitor of the pri-
yate house where Peck aud Rodgers
have rooms; the servant girl, and Miss
Schaffer, clerk in the Bureau of
Labor Statistics, gave testimony. Denni-
son testified to the arrival there two weeks
ago OF twenty-five large packages. be
testified that Sunday last Mr.. Rodgers
told witness he wanted TO have
the contents of the packages burned
in the house furnace that night.
Dennison said that that was his night OF,
when Mr. Rodgers gave him 50 to do the
work. He consented, and shortly after
O'clock that night Dennison carried the
packages down to the cellar from M-.
Peck's bathroom, and starting o fire IN
the furnace, kept feeding It steadily until
twenty minutes 70 3 Monday morning.
They were Of the same color and size as
manufacturers returns.
Commissioner Peck said tonight: The
securing of these warrants of arrest is the
elimination of the fight made by the Mug
wumps and anti-Hill Democrats on Gov
ernor Hill and his friends, and It is all they
can expect henceforth from these quar-

yuPlTERs NEW SATELLITE.
Professor Barnard Makes Public More
Features OF His Great Discovery.

Professor Barnard, of San francisco. has
made public more facts in regard 70 his
great discovery of new satellite OF
Jupiter. He found the new body at mid
night on Friday last. Friday is the Pro-
fessor's night with the big telescope. Al
though he had no reason whatever 10 sus-
pect that there existed an inner satellite
OF such Insignificant dimensions, he re-
solved to look specially for unknown
moons OF the giant planet. with the start
ling success already made known.
Later Investigations have shown that
Barnard's JoVIsn satellite reyolves in a
period OF IL hours SO minutes. The young
astronomer made the micrOmeter inyesti-
CATION himself and then computed tho re-
sulting elements. From the amount Of
light reelected by this tiny moon he states
that it Is certainly not more than 100 miles
IN diameter and Is probably less.
1t IS so close TO the primary that the
greater possible distance from the edge OF
Jupiter at which the satellite may be OBJ
served Is 81 seconds Of arc. or about two
thirds the diameter OF the planet itself.
In speaking of his discovery Professor
Barnard saws that the new satellite IS GER
tainly as faint as the thirteentb-star mag
nitude, and probably much less. In the
great Lick refractor it appears "a an ex-
ceedingly tiny star in yerv rapid motion.
The movement was clearly exhibited in
the successive micrometer measurements,
so that there could be not the least doubt
about the character of the discovery.
Professor Barnard spoke Of one curious
feature apparent in the study OF this fifth
Jovlan moon. The period is so very nearly
one half solar day that for months
at time only one elongation IS visible at
any one place.
For example. at the present time only
the eastern elongation can be seen IN the
United States hence the western elonga-
ton takes place during daylight At the
European ObservatOrles the reverse Is the
case, and consequently Vienna and Nice
will for some time secure careful observa-
tion of the western elOngation of this new
body.
According TO the discoverer the new
moon is more difficult TO observe than the
two satellites of Mars. These can be seen
with ordinary telescopes during q very
favorable opportunity. but the Jov.an at
tendant can at the best be seen only. Gs
Professor Barnard remarked. with tn 30
inch Pulkova telescope, the 30-inch at
Nice, the 2S-inch at Vienna, and possibly
under the most favorable auspices, by the
2G-lnch refractory at the Washington Naval
Observatory.
The new satellite was observed Friday,
Saturday. and Sunday nights, and the
truth of the facts above stated Is beyond
all question.

that Il would not cause the authorities
here 10 do anything TO inconvenience
American arrivals, but he could not even
anticipate that tho necessity of quaran-
tine against the United States would
arise.
THE NoRMAyNIA's CASE.
The representative of the Associated
Press has sought 10 gain information from
the London agents OF the Hamburg Ameri-
can Packet Company concerning the state
ments in American papers that written
engagements we're given TO some of the
Normannia's cabin passengers that that
vessel carried no emigrants. The agents
declined to speak one way or the other,
but said they might contradict the state
ment, though if they did IL would only
lead 70 newspaper controversy and do no
good 20 anybody.
Regarding the question OF the port au-
thorrties here making any restrictions on
traffic with New York on account of the
cholera there the agents thought that
quarantine system like the American
would not hold here, and that trade
would 90 on as before.
The detention of the Normannfa, the
agents added. Obliged them 10 bring the
Columbia back TO Southampton without
SINGLE passenger aboard in order to meet
the Normannia's engagements.

M'ALEER HAS THE FIELD.
Why MIR. Ker wIthdraws from the Con-
test for Congress.
FBy telegraph to the Dispatch.I


PHILADELPHIA. September 16.-Captain
W. W. Ker, who received the regular
Democratic nomination in the Third Con-
pressional District, of this city, announces
this morning that be has withdrawn from
the contest. This leaves the field to Con-
gresham McAleer, who received the
nomination or Independent Democrats
and was endorsed by the Republicans.
MIR. Ker arrived at his conclusion after a
conference. which lasted until an early
hour this morning. National Chairman
Harrity was present at the conference, and
1t is said that II was largely upon his adj
vice that Ker withdrew. In statement
MIR. Ker says:
Il am induced to take this step for the
reason that I am reliably informed of
fact which is now widely knOwn-that the
nomination Of Mr.. McAleer as the regular
Republican candidate was promised with
the understanding that Democratic sup
port should be given to Republican candl-
dates for the Legislature III the Second,
Third, Fourth, Fifth, Twelfth, and Seven
teenth representative districts. Whlle
have reason TO hope and believe that II L
had remained iii the field | would have
been successful at the polls, am unwili-
ing TO continue In the contest II by 50
doing the Democracy of the State shall be
deoriyed of several Democratic members
of the Legislature. If the terms OF the
bargain made with the Republican man
ayers for Mr. McAleer's nomination are
carried out and the Democratic candidates
for the Legislature are defeated, II will be
easy to determine who will be responsible
tor this treachery."
