Il VIII Give the superintendent the PoweE
TO Mako All Transfers.


The Hon. George Il. Malby. Speaker Of the
Assembly. after u very interesting visit to the
Fifth Avenue Hotel over Sunday. returned to
Albany yesterday afternoon. II has already
been told how he met Mr.. Plat and Others and
yesterday morning he met Republicans who
while they cannot be set down as anti Platt
do not always agree with the TioRa chieftain.
The Speakers visit cleared the atmosphere
especially concerning the Bipartisan Police
bill The facts OF the situation concerning
this bill are;
DR.. Depew. whitelaw Reid. and Eilhu Root
originally favored a one-hended Police Com
mission bill This was the situation when Mr..
Reid gave his dinner. and at which Mr.. De-
pew. Mr. Hiatt. Mr. Root. Mr.. Belden. and
others were present The gossip growing out
OF that dinner led to the positive opinion on
the part OF Mr.. PlAtt that the only measure
that could be successful at Albany this winter
was the 81 partisan pill. Subsequently Mayor
Gllroy stated emphatically that he was op-
posed to a one-headed Commission. and Mr..
Depew Mr. Reid, and others were then con-
yiEced that 1t was useless TO push their idea
turally accept in the matter the recommenda-
ton q Mayor Gilroy the chief municipal otti-
So that after looKing over the whole matter
II was decided that the BIZ partisan Police bill
was the only measure that Gov Flower might

advisable to accept half loaf rather than
none at all, But Mr.. Reid and his friends in
sisted CD certain amendments in Mr. Platt's
bill, and the chief amendment was made
known last night II is that the Superint end ent
OF the Police shall have the power to make all
transfers OF Captains. seTgsants aud their
immediate suboTdinates. This is the amended
bill as Ii now stands II Mas not yet Ieac he'd
tho hands OF Mr. Hamilton Fish Mr.. Malby
has returned TO Albany fully acquainted as TO
how the land lies with Mr.. PlAtt Mr.. DepeW
Mr.. Reid. and Mr.. Root
Something was said about the anti Plat
sentiment at Albany, IL appears that Mr..
Hamilton Fish has been In New York for the
last two or three days. and that he is con-
vInced that he has blowing In the Assent bly,
OF thirtY-tlve members. lie concludes, there
fore that while MIR. Platt has the power to de-
feat any measure Introduced at Albany he
has not the following to pass bill Friends
Of Mr.. Fish explain the situation at Albany a
little more freely;
They said that Mr. Fish did not have behind
him personally more than six or ten votes but
that possibly there were thiTtY-hYs Assembly
men who were not ready lust at the moment

the proper time the majority OF these RepuO-
licAns would be ready To go into the caucus

dicted. and il Is very much wiser 10 leave the
result TO the future rather than TO predict.

garding the movements OF Gen. Saraiva, who

gether with the cash. were turned over to Ad-
miral dc Mcllo. who gave Gen. Saraivaa re-
ceipt for them.
The following incident. also from an insur-
gent source, IL given to illustrate the treat
nent accorded to Government troops by some
OF their officers: A private in Rio do Janeiro
was severely wounded by shell that had been
fired from Fort VI llegaiGnon, which Is held by
tho insurgents. AS the missile struck him the
man gave a loud cry that was heard by an
ohlcer standing close to him. The officer. who
had his sword In his hand, turned on the
wounded man and DESPATCHED him. The COM
rades OF tho man thus foully murdered sprang
upon the officer and would undoubtedly have
killed him had II not been that another shell
fell into the struggling crowd and exploded.
Five OF the men were killed by this shell, and
the others then returned to their posts.
