Franklin Mac,each.

No democrat has come out of the
lefeat OF Tuesday with greater honor
or more personal satisfaction than
Mr.. MacNeagh. Returning to his
customary walks he can review the
canvass without regret, and look to
the future for the just reward of his
distinguished party service.
His appearance in the fight was the
gnal for a general attack on him by
al the small deer of republican poll
tcs. He might have been incensed

Quality Against Quantity.

As regards woman suffrage, New
York, with all its fashionable furore, is
still in that stage of the agitation
passed years ago in Boston-where the
''antis" seek to make an impression by
claiming equality as against quantity"
of names in their petitions. To put for
ward this rather vulgar boast was soon
found to be very indiscreet campaign

help to the other side.-Boston Tran

POLICE INVESTIGATION.
The Lexow Committee Again at
Work in New York.
EXAMINING THE OFFICIALS NOW.
Attorney Goff Calls the Chief Clerk of
the Police Headquarters and Ex-PoIice
Commissioner MaoLean, who Says the
Civil Service Law Is q Hindrancs.

New YORK, Oct. 2.-The I,exow COM
mittee resumed its investigations into the
police department yesterday, after two
weeks vacation, taken to allow the mem
bers of the committee to attend the state
convention of the Republican and Demo-
cratic parties. 1t is evident that matters
are rapidly reaching a climax. The be-
ginning of the end apparently Is In sight.
Commencing with the criminals, the
very worst men and women in New York
city as witnesses, Mr.. Goff, the attorney
who has been conducting the investiga-
tion, has been steadily moving upward in
the scale of humanity. The testimony of
ex-officers and former policemen having
been taken just before adjournment the
prosecution took another step nearer the
throne yesterday, when Major William
II. Kip, chief clerk at the police head
quarters, was called as the first witness of
the day. His testimony referred largely
to matter appearing in the records, and
was to some extent of a routine nature.
Then came ex-Police Commissioner
Charles F. MacLean. He thought the
power exercised by the police courts over
the police department was in the main in
jurious. He believed that n single head
to the department would eventually be an
Improvement. The civil service law had
| proved of little benefit to the department,
| because so many of the inspectors were
incompetent. He could recall only one
instance in which formal investigation
was made by the board touching the sale
of captaincies. The witness gave it out as
his opinion that the present system, with
its bad application to the civil service
laws, offered greater opportunities for
| purchasing place On the police force
than under the old system.
There was an unusually large attend
anee of attorneys and ministers when the
session began. The interest in the pro-
ceedings continues unabated. Among the
witnesses called was Corporation Counsel
| Clarke He was asked why he had desig-
mated Mr.. Wellman to appear as .,ecial
counsel to the police board during the re-
cent historical trial of a number of of
ticers, since Mr.. Wellman was already
DIR awing a salary as assistant district at
| torney. Mr. Clarke said he selected Mr..
Wellman because he was familiar with
criminal law, and that the appointment
was neither wrong nor illegal.

Heavy Falling or In tho Receipts From

The revenues Of the government have
fallen off $l3, 900, 900 iIl round numbers

of September. The receipts from GUS
toms for the first "A days of Septembef

receipts from internal revenue for the
first Ia days of September were %, o72.-
900, while the receipts for the last half
of August were $40, 6a4, 900, being o
loss for this period Of $E7, 662, 900. The
normal loss in the internal revenue re-
oeipts equals about ~, 200, 900. equiya-
lent to 90, 600, 900 month, or, if tho
same conditions should continue to the
end Of the fiscal year, 1t would amount
to over sllo, 900, 900 of loss or deficit.
This naturally produ ees the inquiry,
where are the taxes to come from in
the face of this great failing off Of inter-
nal revenuef'
The tax on beer, cigars, cigarettes or
the whole tobacco tax averages about
$3.50, 900 per day, whereas normal rev.
enue from internal revenue Is about
$500 per day. 1t will hs soen that beer
and whisky must necessarily produce
about $780, 600, 900 per day in order to
maintain the normal condition Of re-
ceipts from internal revanue II we only
collect So, 97e, 600 In II days, it Is easy
to be seen that we are drifting into
condition Of increased Indebtedness
rather than keeping pace with the re-
10 ,,f ba dya
1t has been stated hy those we'll in
formed and authorized to speak that
for the next four months 1t is estimated
that the receipts will be about $8s, 000.-
900 and the expenditurs rss $124. 900, 900.
The very best calculations made by ex-
perts in the treasury de partment as we'll
as out Of 1t 2ive US deficit at the close
of the fiscal year June 80, 1898, OF
about S25, 600, 900, and very many per-
SONS who are wise and we'll informed
believe that the deficit for the same pe-
riod may reach the en- ormous sum Of
$50, 600, 900.
These are healthful things for Repub.
licans to consider. When there Is not
enough revenue collected by the nationi
al government to meet public expenses,
the people may rest assured that ma
tional debt will be crsated by the fur
ther issue Of bonds.

open the box. The boy was theu showed
into the car. While he was searching for
express treasures the two bandits guarded
each side of the train.
When the boy came from the car the
trainmen, who were under the bandits
guns, were compelled to march with the
bandits short distance into the bushes.
There the rebels released their prisoners,
and mounting their horses, rode away.
The penalty for robbing trains in Arizona

A posse, led by Sheriff Murphy, of Mar

point where they had crossed the ella
