New Workers Inclined to Let
the Controversy Drop.

NEW YORK, Jan. 2.-Prominent citi-
zens who have been active in the muni
cipal movement and politicians as well
seem to have generally agreed to leave
to DR.. Parkhurst further discussion OF
the acts of the Lexow committee and
perIntendent Byrnes' testimony on the
witness stand.
Many business men and Republican
politicians called on Mayor Strong but
reporters were unable to beguile the call
ers into discussion of the Parkhurst-
Lexow-Byrnes controversy for publica-
ton One of the number. who did not
want his name me eutioned, said:
sit appears to me that if DR.. Park
hurst had determined to attack Byrnes
and the committee he should have at
tended the last session. He had attended
other sessions and he could have been
present., for it was announced in the
morning that Byrnes was TO be called.
Being present. DIR. Parkhurst could have
requested his counsel, Lawyer Moss, or
his friend. Mr.. Golf, to ask the questions
he thought should be pat to Byrnes. If
Golf had refused these questions; if the
committee had declined to allow the
question: to be put, then DR.. Park khurst
might have had some excuse for attack
ing the committee"
Mr.. Gof declines most emphatically to
have anything to say in the way of an
swer to DR.. Parkhurst's structure.
superintendent Byrnes was equally
reticent when questioned concerning DR..
Parkhurst's attack.
Mayor Strong would not talk about
the matter and even DR. Parkhurst denied
himself to reporters
Thomas c. Platt was not in town, but
his view concerning Parkhurst became
public through the medium of Wilkes
barre paper, whose representative inter-
viewed the Republican leader. Said
Mr.. PlaEt to the Wilkesbarre reporter:
He CDR. Parkhurst) has done much
good, bat by reason of the fattery of the
New York newspapers, l am inclined to
think that his head has become swollen.
His IDEAS concerning the suppression of
crime no longer amount to suggestions
or requests, but are given out in a way
that has latterly become characteris-
tic-that is, they are issued as orders.
"When asked his opinion regarding
any movement looking to the purifca-
ton of the police force, or the suppress
sion of crime. it has become his custom
to say: That man must CO. or That
must be- done Some are pleased by this
meIhod, but others-men of wisdom, who
desire only practical reform-are in
clined to not only take exception to it,
but criticise it harshly,"

borrowed money for his transportation
on the Rock Island train which brought

the Rock Island train at Wichita last
night for Topeka. When the conductor
came around Governor Lewelling pre-
sented his annual pass for 1894
The conductor said it was very nice
piece of paper, but it was no longer good
for transportation.
Governor Lewelling replied: "WelI
that leaves me in a sad predicament, as L
really haven't enough money to pay my
fare"
Mr.. Caldwell promptly offered the
Governor the loan of 50 bill to pay his
fare.
The usual ten or fifteen days of grace
on anntaal passes has not been granted

many people who are not accustomed to
it have had to put up cash for their rides

why She was Frightened.

Mr.. Perry, the blind pianist, tells
this amusing story of himself and his
wife: He travels with his own piano,
which is packed in two cases, the body
in one,: the legs in another. On one oc-
casion the latter box was not put off at
the proper station, and he was obliged
at that evenings performance to have
the case set on wooden sawhorses. He
left the town the next day, with direc-
tions that the other package. when it
should.come to light, should be report
ed, not to him, but to his wife, as her
address is stationary and his own con-
stantly changing. Then he wrote her an
explanation of the intelligence she would
undoubtedly soon receive. This letter
did not come to hand until Mrs. Perry
had been thunderstruck by such mes
sage as tiis:> MIR. Perry's legs have
been found at such and such station.
Shall we keep them or send them to
you?' ;As there had been a terrible rail
road accident at that time, the distract
