From present indications the warmest contest
In the Constitutional Convention Is to be over
the question of expunging the word male
from Article H. For weeks the newspapers
have been recording from day TO day the prog
ress of the suffrage and anti-suffrage move
mcnts. Now the arena OF interest has been
transferred to Albany, and to the Committee
on Suffrage, Of which William Z. Goodelle IS
chairman Already numerous petitions on both
sides have made their appearance in the Con-
vcntion, and the committee must be prepared
for bombardmcnt Of them. The real battle
however, will take place on the floor Of the
Convention. 1t is interesting TO recall that In
the last Constitutional Convention the most elo-
Quent and persuasive voice raised in behalf or
the Acknowledgement Of women was that OF
George William Curtis.

There are signs that the prosecution OF the
Gravesend election rascals is not yet ended Mr.
f. NJ Shepard, one OF the special counsel for the
people has been again appointed an Assistant Dis
tric-Attorney, in order that he may appear before
the Grand Jury, and witnesses familiar with the
Gravesend iniquities are understood to have been
summoned before that body. Undoubtedly there
are branches Of this matter we'll deserving OF
further investigation. For instance. palpabie
perjuries were committed by more than one OF the
witnesses who attempted to save McKane from
State Prison. and the guilty men certainly ought
to be brought to account and duly punished.

Many people IN Brooklyn will be pleased by
Governor Flowers action In approving the bill
providing for a public driveway in that city.
The law aims at one specific thlng-namcly, the
construction of drive along the Bay Ridge
shore which is admirably fitted for the purpose.
Plans for such a drive were partly perfected
by a commission appointed by Mayor Body,
when II was learned that the city could not
lawfully undertake the work outside Of its own
limits. The Reynolds bill was designed TO
remedy this defect In the scheme, and 1t au-

this morning for the purpose of arrang-
ing match. Captain Glori, who ap-
peared for Fitzsimmons, when asked by
Corbett to show the color of his money,
displayed $1,000 to bind the match.
Corbett then showed $4,000 and told
Glori to cover it when he pleased, but
there would be no fight until after July
1st, as he would not cancel his profitable
theatrical engagements. This was a
disappointment, but Fitzsimmons and
Glori agreed and the work Of drawing
up articles began.
In answer to question if he was viii

replied: iii fight him any time 1t

600 was his limit. Scholl mentioned
$50, 900, which called forth smiles Cor
bett said the bid was wild and thl
money must be shown. Scholl produced
5000 which, Corhelt said, was not
enough to post for $50, 1000.
Fitzsi,nmons evidently wanted to fGht

terrcd Florida. Fitzsimmons finally
said:

The department regrets that IL Is COM

head Shoals, and that II was also his duty
to nave caused the speed of the vessel TO

there was n very small margin of safety

Trouble Over an Artesian Well.

CHAMBERLAIN, S. D., June 2 -There
is considerable trouble over the ar
tcsian we'll in Ola township. The
benefciarics were not quito satisfied
with the we'll, owing to its being sunk
In n bed of quicksand and the possi-
bllity being great that it might become
choked up. They therefore asked that
i be allowed TO run for a time in order
10 test the well. Tho contractors
finally became impatient Owe the de-
lay on the part of tho county author
ties in accepting the well, and a couple
Of weeks ago placed a cap on top OF
the pipe for the purpose Of stopping
the flow of water until the we'll was
accepted and taken off their hands.
The dry weather made the farmers In
the vicinity of the we'll desperate, and
n large party of them went to the we'll
n few days ago and removed the cap
regardless Of tho protests OF tho con.
tractors. The matter will in all prob
ability get into the courts before II is
settled.
