HOW THEY TALK.

A third partyite was heard TO re-
mark the other day: eve poor
farmers will always be poor as long
as the Democratic or Republican
parties are in power. l for one, am
poorer now than ever before. We
must have q new party" A few
moments later he was heard TO say:
''The recent heavy rains have
almost ruined my whole crop. The
cotton and corn is ruined, and po.
tatoes, why l won't get ten bushels
of good potatoes off of FIVE acres Of
land. l will come out about seven
hundred dollars behind this year on
account of the rains"
A Democrat who was standing
near and heard the above, said to
him:
''Ain't it the rains that will make
you poorer this year than you were
last? You say that you will loose
about seven hundred dollars this
year, and you will try to saddle the
whole business on the Democratic
party" A1d this is about the way
of it. II third party man should
happen to have triplets born in the
family, he might try to put the

JUDGE SKATERS ESTATE.
objection to the Second Annual Ac-
count of the Administrative.


Payne j. Shafter. the well-known horse
man, has filed objections to the account of
his sister, Julia Shafter Hamilton, as adj
ministratrix of the estate of their father,
the late Judge Mem. Shafter.
The second annual account in this es-
tate was filed on the 9Th inst, and is OBJ
jected to on tine ground that it is unin-
telliGible and does not with sufficient par
ticularity Sc t forth the items of moneys
expended Their g are number of items
mentioned which are regarded by the con-
testant as xorbitant and improper
charges against The estate.
These are enumerated and set forth at
length. a charge of $50 railroad fare for
A. T. Hamilton. husband of the admins
ratriX, who is also down in the expense
list as drawing $75 a month salary as
superintendent; a monthly charge of
$25 for office rent at 400 Montgomery
street; charges for merchandise and labor
for the James C. Shaf.er mill; the pay
ment of Captain SumDer's railroad fare
and the hire of labor at Bayside, the FAM
lily residence-ali these items are objected
TO. But besides these there is an item of
$4,000, set down as commission due to Mrs.
Hamilton as executrix. This is especially
contested, and altogether the objection
able Items aggregate nearly $4,000.
The account came up for settlement yes
terday in Judge Levy's court and Mrs.
Hamilton gave evidence 10 the effect that
the account was in condition for settle
ment. The objections filed were a COM
pleUe surprise to her, but as time was
needed TO answer the contest, the matter
was continued until Monday next.

WUNEY IS NEEDED
To Carry On the Sweep
ing of Streets.
UNDER ASSOCIATION PLANS.
There Are Many Applicants for
Daily Work.
CHARITABLE SOCIETIES ASSIST
The Merchants Appeal to Hotel
Keepers and Others for Aid in
Carrying On Their Projects.

AS the winter season advances the Mer-
chants Association. which has the con-
tract for keeping the public streets clean,
finds Its troubles accommodating. First. the
funds are not coming in as rapidly as they
should considering the good work that is
being done, and next the applicants for
work are on the increase. While there is
much work to be done yet. the association
cannot put the men to work On it until it
sees its way clear to pay them.
President Dohrmann said yesterday:
"'The association is now employing more
than 200 men. There has been subscribed
upward of SO, GOO, leaving shortage of
about $4,000 More than 900 crossings
were swept clean on Sunday by the asso-
citation, and even Van Ness avenue, which
is not an accepted street. was given atten-
ton and the mud scraped away. Not
withstanding the fact that no sweeping
has been done on the streets since Satur-
day, owing 10 the heavy downpour, they
were so we'll swept before that they are
still quite presentab BILE.
1.-The association has gone ahead en-
arging the district swept by hand in the
| confident expectation that the community
Will give q more generous response 10 the
request for funds. If the subscriptions
were more promptly made at least another
| hundred men would be employed. AS
every sweeper has family depending on
his efforts TO keep actual hunger and cold
from his door the benevolent feature of
| the movement becomes more apparent and
practical.
"a new district has been recently added
| to the hand-labor sweeping which has
hitherto been extremely filthy. 1t includes
nearly all that section bounded by Sacra-
ment0, Broad way, East and Dupont streets.
| Already that district looks much better
! and in a short time it will show very great
! Improvement.
Some of the benevolent societies of the
| city are sending men TO the association
for employment and prevailing the money
to pay them. This Is in response TO
notices sent them by the association ask
| ing assistance in the good work of helping
needy men to labor tor living instead of
| receiving downright charity. All of these
men so employed come with a prepared
form showing just how many days en-
ployment the charitable society will pay
for Circulars asking for assistance have
also been sent around to the various hotels
of the city. BY this means we hope to get
more money in.
AN excellent new map has been pre-
pared for the use Of the associ alton. which
tells at glance all the accepted streets
ana the character OF their paving, whether
basalt, cobble or bi luminous; and q sys-
tenn OF daily record of the streets swept
and the number of sweepings. whether

BUCKLEY TO BE TRIED.
The Supreme Court Denies a Writ
of Habeas CORPUS.

The Supreme Court has denied a writ of

ing trial for tampering with the election
returns.
The writ was sued out by Buckley's
counsel. Burnett G. Haskell and ]. j.
Gulfoyle, and argued before the Supreme
Court in bank the other day. The chief
ground for demanding writ was the con-
tention that even supposng that any tam
periDg with the ballots had been done
there was nothing in the way of evidence
to connect Buckley with the crime and
that he had therefore been illegally ar
rested.
The Supreme Court, however, decides
that there is reason to suppose that

against Buckley. and so the writ is dis.
charged.
Buckley. having been hitherto unable to
md bail, will remain in the custody of the
