The Cfrcular Nuisance,

The mails are now loaded with the
 circulars of merchants soliciting cus-
 toners for their wares as appropriate
 for holiday gifts. As these include arti-
 cles of both luxury and necessity gen.
 erally, and as millions of dollars will
 be spent in their purchase between now
 and Monday night. all enterprising
 dealers are seeking by liberal advertis-
 ing to get the advantage of this harvest
 time for trade; but why are some of
 them dissipating so much of the money
 they are expending for this purpose in
 annoying people with circulars sent
 through the postofice at great cost for postage? asks the New York Sun.
 These circulars come along with multitude of others, begging for chari . table contributions, so that of the two the chief part of every mans mail is madeaup. As soon as their chara cter is discovered they are, as matter Of course, tossed into the waste basket unread. Their sending is resented as an impertinent intrusion, like the visit of an importunate peddler. Usually, therefore, they do more harm than good to the dealers who spend so much mon
 in getting them up and paying their way through the post nifice.
 The only circulars offering articles for sale which justify the expenditure on them, and which can be sent out l with no tanker of provoking resent | ment against them as nuisance are the few which contain special informa- l tion, specially desired by the people who receive them. Articles Of whicl. 1 there is no general supply may safely be advertised in this way, to a partic- 1 ular profession or to collectors; but to trouble a man with circulars soliciting the purchase of merchandise on general
 sale in the trade, is to force on his at tention matters which concern tke send
 CTS interest only and consequently to be guilty of bad manners It is poor
 business policy.
 The proper place for such advertise
 ments is in g. newspaper, one of whose most important functions is that of a
 business directory. It enables the mer- ! CllduL Lo hCCp bCLo1O tAS puOiAS 4i1o
 name, his place of business and his wares, without causing them annoy
 ance As part of the news of the
 day, he announces to the people gener- ally the articles he has to sell, their
 prices, and where they are on sale. He does not ring the door bell of peo- ples houses to thrust in unsought and
 undesired circulars soliciting buyers for his goods, but puts his advertisements l in the customeary business directory, which is a newspaper. There they are in their appropriate place, and are respected accordingly.
 This Is 8 great opportunity enjoyed by trade because of the development of the modern newspaper. It brings the merchant and his business before the whole public and gives to both the consequent distinction. The circum- l stance that the trade of houses which l advertise the most largely and persist
 ently in the newspapers is always great est, proves that the public are inter-
 ested in such announcements when they are put in the vehicle to which society now naturally looks for the in- formation.

DR. PARKHuRsr 10 GO Os.
iis Purposs if the Police Inquiry is
 stopped.

His Purpose if the Police Inquiry is stopped.
 New York, Dec. A.-calm succeeded to-day the confused alarm of Friday and Saturday in the police department. The accused have had time to reflect and consult. and their plans are said to be defined. They know what they will do when the time comes. and there are some reasons for believing that . gem eral understanding. or armistice at least, has been arrived at among the conflicting factions.
 But there was one cloud over to-day's peaceful scene. It was not the expected action of the police board. though q call for a meeting was looked for early in the day. The force shows no apprehen- sion of anything the board may or may not do. Dr. Parkhurst was the cause of the doubts concerning the future. and, though his power to create further disturbance is now considered to be re- mote, 1t is recognized that 1t Is certain to be felt ultimately. He himself said to-day that he would not stop even If the senate committee did. He said he believes the committee Is about through with serious work.
 Tt Is evident and I am informed" :" he added, that Superintendent Byrnes is to be subjected only to a perfunctory examination, and that he 1t was who planned the confession of Captain Schmittberger. Putting these things together 1t looks very much like deal. But there are other possible explana- tions of the changed spirit of the com- mittee, and I do not care to say any thing now about the matter.
 My opinion of Superintendent Byrnes has not changed with the attitude of the committee. I had hoped to have had the investigation completed, not stopped, so that might have rest. But if 1t is not finished by the commit tee I will simply have to go on. Of course 1 am free to do so. I am not bound by anything the committee may have agreed to, and will continue my work till it is rightly ended. I am in doubt as to what shall do at the mo- ment, partly because dread a misin- depreciation of my motive. would not have 1t thought that am actuated by a mere prejudice against Superintend- ent Byrnes. But I do think that he Is the head of the exposed police system, as he is of the police force. A gentle man said to me recently that he would as soon think of asking Satan's advice on the reorganization of hell as Byrnes on the reorganization of the police. That expresses my opinion exactly. There is no prejudice in my feelings against Byrnes, but I have met his power of opposition to my work of re- form at many points, and hence I have gained knowledge of him which has been such as to make me hold aloof from any alliance with him, and will not be restrained now by any cooper ation with him that may be accepted by others"

FORD'S THEATER VICTIMS.
Ono Claim Not Flied Uutii the Bill

Senator Henderson today. from the Sc
lect committee on the Ford Theater dsas-
ter. reported another estimate of 5000 to
pay the heirs Of Michael T. Mulledy. max
ing twenty-one cases. with a total appro-
priation of 100000 This money is asked
for by means of amendment to the SUM-
dry civil bill. Michael T Mulledy was kill
ed outright when the buii1ing fell, and his
name was kept on file by the committee
but no claim had been filed when Senator
Henderson made his FIRST report several
Gays ago. On Tuesday. however. the clerk
o! the committee had q call from an ex-
cited individual. who breathIessIy asked
why the name of Mulledy had not been in
cluded in the list. He was told that no
claim had ever been filed and that the com
mittee therefore knew Of no heir to whom
to pay the S3.UOo In few hours a claim
was FLED in the name OF Kate Mulledy a
sister of Michael. who lives in New Or
leans Hence the amendment
There is still another victim whose rela-
tives have not yet presented a claim This

falling floors He was a German, past mid
die age. who had been in the War Depart
nlent for many years. So far as known, he
had no family in this country. No action
can be taken by the committee until an
heir appears. and it may be that the 5000
will go begging.
