James Scott. the commercial travel
Ter. who was arrested for dlsorderly
conduct at Days Theatre last night,
was discharged in the Jefferson Mar
ket Court this morning. He has a black
eye as q souvenir Of the scuffie in
which Dick Dorney hit him, Arthur Re-
han pushed him and Augustin DAILY
fell upon him.
Scott bought q ticket from Spectator
Morrissey on the sidewalk and It was
refused at the door. He pushed his
way through the gate and was mounting
the stairs, when he was seized and
thrown out after an exciting struggle
during which the railing in the foyer
was broken down.
The spectators wanted Mr.. Scott to
make a test case OF the matter, and got
their counsel, Lawyer Epstein. to bail
him out.
Much to their disgust. however. an
agreement was reached between the
parties when they came to court. and
Mr.. Scott was discharged. 1t is thought
the compromise was that he would not
be prosecuted provided he did not press
any case against the theatre manager.

FITCH! BOOM! All! TIGER?
Belief that the Comptroller Has

Gaynor Not in Favor with tho Slate
Makers

There Is a belief in political circles
that Comptroller Ashbel P. Fitch is 60

Convention with a boom for Governor
concealed about his person 1t is known
that the question of his candidacy was
&C sidered by the same interests that
favor the nomination of Frederick Cook,
OF Rochester-thc brewers. Mr.. Fitch
did not deny to-day that his name was
suggested for the Office by his friends.
1T is highly fattering," said he. to
be talked Of as the possible Governor Of
the State OF New York, but 1 AM salts
fed where l am"
Mr.. Fitch did not say he was salts
fed to remain where he is. In Tamma-
ny circles Mr. Fitchs candidacy has not
aroused enthusiasm
Supreme Court Justice Gaynors name
is still mentioned more than any other
for the Democratic nomination for Gov
ernor. He is favorite with the rank
and file but not with the men who con-
troll and make nominations.
This has developed since yesterday.
when everything seemed to point
towards Gaynor. 1t Is the opinion OF
old campaigners that some other man
will be named at Saratoga-Thacher or
a dark horse.
New York and Kings County, where
the bulk of the Democratic vote is cast.
will have something to say about the
nomination, and nothing will be settled
until the leaders get together. They all
will be in Saratoga on Monday and have
a conference then on the situation.
| Hugh Mclaughlin is understood to be
opposed to Gaynor, and unless his oppo-
sition Is overcome Gaynor's chances are
slim. Tammany will vote as a unit fol
the man Mayor Gilroy supports. The
Mayor is not averse to Gaynor, but not
so enthusiastic as to make fight fol
him.
The Mayoralty question is entirely
overshadowed by the Saratoga Conven
ton, and there is less talk about posi-
BILE candidates.
George b. Mcclellan having refused
to run for President of the Board o.
for a suitable candidate for that place
too He will be some respectable bust
ness man. who is willing to. lose hi:
identity for 5000 a year and wear 6
Tammany collar.
Col McClellans ambition is to go t.
Congress, and the Tammany slate fol
Congress may be rearranged to give
him a nomination.
The Independent County Organization
will be gratihed that the idea first ad
vanced by that organlzation-a unior
OF all anti-Tammany forces--will be car
ried out. AS soon as the Democratic
State Convention is over there will b,

ATLANTIC HIGHLANDS, n. j.. Sept.
22.-The Grand View Hotel, mammoth
structure with nearly 200 rooms. was
completely destroyed by fire early this
morning. There were no guests In the
building at the time, the hotel having
closed for the season few weeks ago.
watchmen John Rise and Hugh Nc
Connell, with the latter's wife and child
were In charge of the place. They had
n narrow escape from death. and were
compelled to leave the hotel In their
night dresses. A big Newfoundland dog
belonging to Rise persisted In the flames.
AS there was no stove, range or heater
In the hotel, and only one lighted lamp,
the fire Is attributed to incendaries.
The total loss is estimated at nearly
100000. The hotel was insured for $45,-
900 in various companies in New York,
and the furniture for $500. The build
ing was erected eleven years ago. and
was owned by Obermelr & Morton, who
were in an adjoining cottage when the
fire broke out.
It was nearly 4 o'clock when the
flames were discovered, and residents
OF the town were awakened by the
Changing OF the alarm bell. Hen Add
son, conductor OF the Barnegat train.
jumped upon a locomotive and directed
the engineer to open up his whistle.
Several other iron horses Joined in the
chorus, until not only the whole town
was awakened. but Hillside. Navesink,
and far off Locust Point. and even Port
Monmouth and Chapel Hill were ex-
cited.
The several truck and hose companies
were early on the scene. and powerful
streams were thrown upon the build
ing. but with little effect, for the fire
burned rapidly. and in two hours only
a heap of blackened ashes marked the
spot where the handsome structure once
stood.
