A true-blue American yachtsman known

To rHy EDITOR OF THE sus-siri I want to express

representative OF England, and the vakyris resume
possession OF the Americas Cup In the namo or the
country which nrst offered IL as worlds prize. We
have a great boat In the vigiAnt. undoubtedly the
best We have ever had: but I cannot help thinking
that tho psrsstency OF tho British in their
to regain the cup shall be rewarded with success in
this their fourth great essay. the yachting word on
both sides OF the water win thrill with stimulus for
further and greater development in yachts which
will far surpAss the ambition for supremacy

will work to defend their prize with slston not sxpe-

An account OF the Ghetto" that has
been created in this city by the Russian i'm
migrants OF recent years Is printed In the
Jerish Messenger. Certainly" says this
paper. the existence OF such q Ghetto In
New York Is an evil which should not longer
be tolerated: and something must be done
about it for tho fame Of New York Israel and
their prosperity in the future"
1t is hard to effect any bettermept OF that
part OF the city which is here spoken Of as the
Ghetto. and In which over 100000 Russian
immigrants have taken up their abode. The
Department Of Health has tried to bring about
some i'm proven emit in the condition OF some OF
the older tenements. but it has met with OBJ
structions that cannot be overcome by any
power under It's control. The masses OF peo-
pie there had been compelled. before coming
to this country. to live in the most uninviting
quarters Of the cities OF Russia and Poland,
and the habits OF n lifetime are not to be
changed without tedious labor. in which they
themselves must take part.
The Jetpish Messenger maintains that there
is but one remedy for the evil OF which 1t gives
account. and that is the diversion of the
stream OF immigration from this city. and the
distribution OF the tensment-h house popula-
ton In the suburbs and elsewhere" We must
add. however. that this diversion and distri-
button would DO very dificult OF accomplish
ment Large numbers OF the Russian Jews
who are constantly arriving at this port de-
sire to reside In New York, and naturally
take up their abode in those parts OF the city
which are chiefly Inhabited by their brethren.
In the nine months OF the current year, nearly
80. 900 Jewish newcomers have been added to
that denssiy populated part OF the city, the
so-called Ghetto. Yet other thousands will
hereafter be added. unless the stream Of i'm
migration can somehow be diverted.
1t seems to us that this question ought to la
taken up earnestly by the delegates to the
National Convention OF that powerful jewish
organization. the Bnai Berth. which is to DO
held In this city next week. In this matter.
that body could render an important service
to the Jewish people In America and to the
city which contains a larger jewish popula-
tion than any other city In the world.

MCDONALD ARRESTED.
One OF Tillman's Spies Charged with
Trespass on the Alpha's Wharf.


Chas. B. Mcdonald, one of Gov. Till
mans special whisky spies, was arrested
yesterday at the instance of Mr.. C. H.
Medlock, who charges him with trespass
on the wharf Of the steamer Alpha.
Mcdonald has been in the city for sew
eral weeks, and since coming here has
also been employed as special detective
py the city In his other capacity in
Gov. Humans service he went occasion
ally on the wharf of the steamer Alpha
which plies between here and Beaufort
Tor the purpose of seeing whether any
packages of intoxicants were among the
freight AT least his business was pre-
sumed to be such.
Two or three weeks ago on the occasion
OF one of his visits to the wharf, MIR. Med
lock says he asked him his business there,
and whether he was there as a citizen or
as an official. Mcdonald replied that he
was there as a citizen. MIR. Medlock
says that he then ordered him off the
wharf. He ordered him of, he says, on
the occasion of a subsequent visit and
Mcdonald refused to go, but finally left
The third time he determined to take
some action in the matter as he said he
was losing passengers by the presence of
Mcdonald, as they were afraid TO get on
the boat with flask of whisky in their
pockets. Medlock says the presence of
the detective gave rise to the idea that
they were doing a smuggling business and
trying to carry whisky in on the sly.
Such, he said, is not the case Some
times package passes when it is marked
IN deceptive manner to indicate that it
has something in it beside whisky, but if
they know that package contains
whisky, Mr.. Medlock says, it is not
taken.
To get rid of this impression, he thought
1t necessary to get rid of the detective.
he asked policeman to arrest him, but
after telephoning the police barracks, the
policeman, he says, refused, saying he
had been instructed otherwise. He then
sent up and had warrant taken out
against him for trespass at Justice Rey-
nolds' court. When Mcdonald was ar
rested and carried into Justice Reynolds
court, pistol was found on his person,
and another warrant, charging him with
carrying concealed weapon, was sworn
out. His bond was stood by Lieut.. Reilly,
of the police force, and he was released.
MIR. Medlock says this spy business is the
worst nuisance the steamboat people have
to contend with, as he says these special
detectives IN South Carolina break open
any package Of freight they choose with
out warrant of any kind, and that they
seize whatever whisky or other intoxi-
cants they find. He says in South Caro-
lima these spies appropriate the liquor to
themselves, as they are required to make
no returns for it.

Dangers Unprotected Ladies Are Sub
jected to From Pocketbook Thieves.
There has been proving for the last
two weeks in the neighborhood around
the north end of Forsyth park, a sneak
thief whose design is to surprise unpro-
tected ladies as they pass, and snatch
from them whatever parcel they may be
carrying in their hands, generally a
pocketbook.
The MORNING News called attention to
this matter some time ago, when about 9
O'Clock in the afternoon lady's pocket
book was snatched from her hand at Bull
and Gordon street lane. The matter was
reported to the police, but the police were
never successful In discovering the Grim
inal. The lady was badly frightened and
it was some time before she recovered
from the effects of the shock.
Since that time succession of similar
bold robberies have occurred in very near
the same section, about Abercorn and
Gordon street lane. In fact, this has
been the scene of nearly all these thefts,
as ladies who live beyond the park often
pass this point just after dark, on their
way home Another lady lost her purse
a night or two ago. At this point one
had a diamond pin snatched of, and
another only saved her purse by the tight
grip she had on it at the time.
1t is getting dangerous for ladies to
walk on the street alone in that locality
after dark, oc even after twilight has set
in, for il is, never known at what lane
some thief will Jump out from the dark
ness, snatch a pocketDook, and be of be-
fore he can be stopped.

POLICEMEN IN A sET-ro.
Two of Them Wear Their Heads in

Two OF Them Wear Their Heads in q
Bandage,
There was only one case of any impor-
lance before Recorder Wilson yesterday
morning, 1t was the trial of the partici-
pants in row at John Wade's saloon,
South Broad and Houston streets, about
l O'Clock yesterday morning Policeman
Kavanaugh and EX-Policeman O'Neiil
were passing Wades bar and O'Neill in
vited the officer to take drink with him
While they were inside, loud talking
was heard on the outside, and the two
men went out to investigate.
Nobody seems to know what followed,
but in some way the men became involved
in fight with the parties on the side
walk. A few minutes afterward, p. J.
Wilkins one of those engaged in the row,
rushed into Wade's place closely pursued
by Officer Coffee, who had run from across
the street when the row started. AS Po-
iceman Coffee collared Wilkins, O'Neil,
it is claimed, struck the prisoner, and
when cautioned by the officer turned on
him and attempted to wrest his club
from his hand.
The proprietor of the saloon cried out !:
Take them all in !" and left the place for
the purpose of pulling the box for Coffee
When he returned, he says, he found
Kavanaugh lying on the walk, in pool
of blood and groaning. He picked him
up and carried him to the barracks,
where the wounds in his head were
dressed.
When O'Neill and Kavanaugh APP
peared before Judge Wilson their heads
were bandaged up. The recorder fined
O'Neill $40. During his statement the lat
ter called Coffee brutal coward, and was
promptly given five hours imprisonment
for contempt of court. O'Neill explained
that he meant no disrespect and for this
apology the Imprisonment was taken off
Kavanaugh's case was continued until
this morning.
Both Kavanaugh and O'Neill claimed
that they were brutally treated by Coffee
and their heads bear witness to it. The
policeman does not deny the accusation,
but says that he did not know he was
hitting any particular person, but struck
at the whole crowd.
The case of VIM. Love- charged with
criminally assaulting Bella Hudson, was
dismissed.
Six disorderiy cases were disposed of.
