though just recovering from the effects
OF some powerful drug.
Policeman Dickey, OF the East Fifty.
first squad. brought the young man to
court. He said he found him at Third

o'clock last evening too much intox.
icated to care for himself.

in a saloon on the southwest corner OF
Third avenue and Forty-second street
and that he only escaped being robbed
by rushing out into the street. He said
he wanted the officer to investigate the
case.
This morning Peet sent for his cousin

OF Canaan, Conn, the attorney for
the Consolidated Railway. who left a
big fortune.
He came to New York on Monday

drinker He was finally induced to try
the Kelley gold cure, and went to White
Plains. He was discharged as cured
eighteen months ago. Since that time
he had drank nothing until now,
When arraigned Peet had only $40
with him, Il fact which led the cousin to
believe that he had been robbed

he had several hundred dollars at least.
Justice Burke dismissed the charge OF
intoNication ana Peet was discharged.

.HuNT|MG FOR SMALLPOX.
Health Inspectors Making q
Houss-to- House Search,
More Cases Reported at the Bureau
This Morning.

Three new cases Of smallpox were re.
ported at the Bureau of Contagious Dis.
eases this morning.
The patients are Mary Ehricson, fifty
years old, of 50 Cherry street; John
Arois. aged twenty-four, of 4S Roosevelt,
street, and John Barnett, two years
old. of 10 Oak street.
They were discovered last night by
health inspectors, who made a tour OF
the Fourth Ward looking for small
pox. All three have been sent to NORTH
Brother Island.
Chief Inspector Doty received WORD
from the Riverside Hospital to-day thai
DIR. Charles Norris, of the Roosevelt
Hospital STAFF. and DR.. Thomas J. Rich
caught the disease in the Vanderbilt,
Clinic, where a man suffering from
smallpox was exhibited as a case OF
chicken-poX, were doing nicely. Both
have the disease in a mild form.
DIR. Doty denied to-day that he was
making an effort to learn the name OF
the physician that made the mistake
He said an error had been made, bu,
particular one that are unfamiliar with
smallpox and its symptoms. 1t would
be unprofessional. he said, to disclose
the name Of the doctor.
DR.. Doty also stated that he was not
hunting UP all the young doctors that
were present at the Vanderbilt Clinic
when the smallpox patient was ex.
fibited. DIR. Doty said II any more OF
them are stricken he will know 1t soon
DR.. Doty sent out eight of his inspec.
tors this morning. They were instruct
ed to make house to house searches OF
the tenements in Cherry, Oak and Roose-
welt streets and adjacent streets where
there have been smallpox cases.
The inspectors will vaccinate every
one that can be induced to accept vac
cination.. About 200 persons were vac
cinated last night.
DR.. Doty said that this work would
be kept up for several days. Mean
time physicians called to attend sick
rersons In the district where most of the
smallpox cases have come from will be
cautioned to report promptly any sus-
picious cases Of illness coming to their
notice
Health Inspector A. Ayvazlan. has
been detailed by President Wilson, OF
the Health Board. to take charge OF
the smallpox patients now In River
side Hospital on North Brother Island
suffering with the disease.
Since July 10 there have been hfty-twt
patients In the hospital.
President Wilson says that the Health
inspectors have a hard time on their
vaccination tours. Fully 40 per cent OF
the people refuse to be vaccnated, and
under the laws they cannot be COM
PEELED to submit to vaccination. How
ever the physicians have the power
to remove all suspects or persons
whom they believe have been in contact
with smallpox cases and this rule will
be vigorously adhered to.

Crowds OF Inquirers.

Another crowd OF anxious men and
women called at the Office OF PIN. For
wood & Co. on State street to-day. in
the hope that some news had been re-
ceived of the overdue steamer Alvo or
her crew and passengers
The steamship agents had no informa-

ROW IN BROOklYN's c. 0. P.
The Trouble Is Over tho Proposed
Nomination Of Wilson.
Democrats Alss Bothered About .
Candidate fer Mayor.

1t leaked out in Brooklyn this morn
ing that there Is row in the Republi-
can camp In Kings County. Unless
checked at once II threatens to split the
party and throw the power once made
into the hands of Ernest Nathan. the
dethroned leader.
The trouble Is over the proposed nom
nation of Francis II. Wilson for Mayor.
The dissatisfied Republicans say that
Mr.. Wilson Is IA weak candidate. They
favor either United States District-At-
,orney Jesse johnson or William II.
Williams. both OF whom. they say. are
strong candidates and likely to win.
Some of the most influential Republi-
cans are against Wilson. They have. 1t
is said. notified Jacob Worth that unless
their candidates are named they Will
ioin the Independent movement.
Meantime Nathan is not idle He has
gathered around him sixty trusty lieu
tenants, who have been holding secret
meetings for the past two weeks
The Nathanites have organized an
Anti Worth Buttling Republican party,
and. II IL said, will indorse the indie
pendent ticket.
The chief topic of conversation among
the Democrats about the City Hall and
Court House In Brooklyn this morning
was the proposed nomination of Con-
gresham William j. Coombs as Mayor.
Politicians say now that Mayor Boody
has not the slightest chance to win
the nomination. although they will not
admit that Mr.. Coomps Is the stronger
candidate.
There now seems to be n disposition
on the part OF some of the Democrats
to nominate Comptroller halsey G. Cor
win for Mayor. He Is said to be the
strongest man In the field Tor the office.
Joseph e. Hendrix. they say, might
have been the lucky candidate, only Mr..
Nc l.Alghlin accuses the Congressman
OF making public some of the secrets of
the organization.

Abuse Of Petitions.

The right OF petition is one which
no American will dispute. The Rev.
dictionary struggle established it,
and general practice has placed the
seal of approval upon it's exercise,
says the St. Cloud Times 1t is true
that it's efficacy has been greatly
impaired by the abuse into which it
has fallen, or rather by the fact that
most people do not like to refuse to
append their names to such papers,
and, as a result, a petition, even Of
the most absurd, unworthy and
grotesque character, oftentimes re-
ceives the endorsement of entire
communities. Many sensible men
will append their names upon the
false and absurd theory that "he is
mighty mean man who will not
sign petition" If this homely
saying were changed go as to read:
"He is a very weak and dishonest
man wAo will sign every petition,;'
it would be far more truthful.
Why should a man, for instance,
sign request to the President to
appoint certain man to a certain
Office, because of his qualification,
and merits, and the next day, again
in writing, request him to appoint
another man to the same office? Is
it not dishonest? Can citizen hon.
estly ask the President to appoint
two, or three. or four men to the
same position? Certainly not, and
yet that is what hundreds are doing.
For instance, three petitions have
been circulated for Postmaster in
this city, and upon each OF the three
will be found dozens of the same
names. What a burlesque! What a
travesty upon petitions? Upon one
Of these, the first person to request
the appointment of the aspirant, is
one who, is himself a candidate for
the same Office. Now, if the Presi-
dent grants his petition and ap-
points his opponent, what can he
say? He asked him to do so!
Is it any wonder, under these cir
cumstances, that petitions lose the
power they are supposed to possess,
and that oftentilnes an examina ton
of them, by those to whom they are
addressed, exposes the objections We
have cited. People who sign pitt
.tions, no matter OF what kind,
should be as conscientious and care
full about it as if they were signing
a contract or a bond, for BY attach
ing their names they guarantee the
