PARKHURST's HOT SHOT.

Reads an Offer of 81 900 for the Impeach-
Hnent of "a Police Justice.
New York, Oct 3.-Dr. Parkhurst
attracted large audience to Amnity
hall last night He spoke under the
auspices of the city vigilance league.
The doctor was evidently suffering from
the effects of the severe strain to which
he is subjected, as he did not speak with
his accustomed ease. He hurled some
hot shots at the police justices and the
police department, however.
The audience was informed by DIR.
Parkhurst that to witness the examina-
ton of Mr.. Golf when he fairly had to
gimlet the testimony from them, was far
better than going to theater for amuse-
ment He spoke of the unreliability of
the word of the policeman, saying that
ex-Commissioner of Police Voorhis put
himself on record as asserting that
he seldom put any credence in
what policeman testified The
character of the police court matters
touches more closely the future of the
municipality, he said, than even the
police"
DR. Parkhurst read from letter he
had received from prominent man in
which he offers to any young lawyer in
the city a fee of $1,000 for the successful
impeachment of police justice. This
offer. the writer explained would be
binding on his heirs and he hoped some
Of the representatives of the bar would
take it m.
