FATHER KNICKERBOCKER HAS
FOUND WHERE TO GET A
SUNDAY DIR Aas,
ANOTHER DRY SUNDAY,
AND AS THOR
OUGHLY AS POLICE COULD
COULD MAKE II SO
BUT THE CLUBS WE'RE BUSY.
Mushroom Organizations Which
Are Formed Solely for Sale
of Liquors.

NEW YORK, Aug. 4.-The reform
police administration enforced another
dry Sunday in the metropolis today
Many patrolmen were on duty in citi-
zens' clothes to watch the saloons, and
they had the assistance of members of
the City Vigilance league, who report
ed supposed violations of the law.
Acting Chief Conlin said tonight that
he had travelled about the city consid-
erably, and felt gratified at the re-
suits of his campaign. Although the
saloons were shut up pretty tight to
all outsiders, it was apparent that
many of them were doing business in
quiet way with their friends. Acting
Chief Conlin practically admitted that
it is an impossibility to stop the sale
of liquor in every section of the town,
when it is possible for a saloCkeeper
to supply the tenants in the building
in which his place is situated, either
from the saloon or from a room on
some other floor in the house. 'Where
there is a demand" said the acting
chief, there is likely to be a supply
somewhere"
1t was fact that the proprietors of
liquor stores who persisted in violating
the law were more wary than ever
before, and that they manifested a
They would take no chances knowing
ly,and were too smart to admit strang-
ers to their saloons, no matter how
innocent the would-be customers ap-
peared. Few drunken men were seen
about the streets, and the concealing
basket was not nearly so common as
on preceding days.
The unique organiZat ton known as
the Girder club, and fathered by Oil
yer Sumner Teall, was opened for the
first time, and many paid the nominal
dues for membership and partook of
liquid refreshments there. Although
the police had not attempted to in
terfere with the institution, there
seemed to be feeling of uneasiness
over rumor that there was a posi-
bility that Capt. Pickett would make
a visit.
Both Mr.. Teal and his lawyer were
emphatic in saying that it was not
within the province of the police to
modest them, without closing up such
places as the Union league and other
clubs.
Mr.. Teall said the Girder club was
not organized solely for the purpose
of supplying drinks to those whose
financial or social positions prohibited
them partaking of the privileges, open
to those members of larger clubs. 1t
has other features, such as obtaining
discounts for members at the stores of
tradesmen, representing every trade
in the city, the discounts being 10 per
cent on all purchases.
Our object is also to promote social
interest among its members" said Mr.
Teall, land for the encouragement of
musical and dramatic art. But the
Girder club claims it has the same
right to grant to it's members all privi-
leges which belong to all properly Or
ganiZed clubs

BLACKS EXCITED.
A Big ThfOnS at the Funeral of
Green in Washington.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 4.-The funeral
of the negro boy, Ernest Green. who
was shot last Friday by Miss Flagler
because he was taking fruit from a
pear tree in the yard, was held today,
and was attended by a large throng OF
colered people. Two colored preachers,
Revs. j. a. Taylor and Walter II.
Brooks, delivered brief remarks touch
ing the subject Both were temperate,
but the words of the latter were several
times drowned by the Interruptions Of
excited hearers. Referring to the ac-
ton of the coroner's jury in exonerat-
ing Miss Flagler, he said evidently the
taking of human life without Gauss
was no crime in Washington. Life
here was not worth much SO far as the
colored race was concerned, and God
would have a reckoning. The action
of Miss Flagler in shooting because the
boy was merely after a pear was
strongly animadverted to.
The Rev Daniel A. Hayes, the pas
tor of the Asbury NJ. E. church
ing. saying: ''It seems to be the prac-
tice OF certain ladies and gentlemeln,
Of our city to make sport of their skill
and to pursue as a pleasant pastlme

over in armies are deferred from
seeking home under conditions no
more favorable than those they are
themselves experiencing. Immigra-
ton to the United States has fallen
off tremendously during the last
three years; SO much so that the i'm
migration problem is no longer dis
cussed by politicians and in the
newspapers. But the next year or
two will tell a different story.
The reports of the steamship com
panies show a remarkable and sig
nif1cant change. They say that their
list of cabin passengers this year
has increased by some so per cent,
and their list of steerage passengers
decreased correspondence. This
measures the return of prosperity to
the classes who are able to
travel abroad, and the cessa-
ton of that exodus of poorer
people from the country which
was going on during the hard
times. By next spring the foreign
emigrant will again have before him
rosy reports of the fortune that
awaits him here. We may expect
immigration to rise speedily to
its old proportions. While the
transfer of population from city to
country is an unmiXed blessing, the
growth of foreign immigration again
to the point Of half million or more
newcomers every year, will raise
the old question of regulation and
restriction. Congress should be pre-
pared to deal with this soberly and
intelligently at an early day.

Deacon Richard Smith tells the
New York Tribune that he looks
forward to a virtual Republican vic
tory in Kentucky" Why this cruel
ambiguity? Why ''virtual?" If
Bradley is defeated where does
the virtual victory come in?
And if he is elected, equally,
why only virtual success? There
is, of course, the possibility that the
good deacon wrote 'tvirtuous" SIN
stead Of virtual" but this would
imply a shocking, and, on the whole,
an improbable ignorance on the
deacon's part of the elections of his
party, and especially those of his
own state of Ohio. So he must have
said virtual but why and where
fore?

THE CASE OF pEMBROok,

A person by the name of Bevans,
to which some one has prefaced the
title ''Col.," but otherwise unknown
to fame, wakes indignant over an or
der of the commissioner of pensions
in the case of one Pembroke. ct
is only one of thousands of cases."
he declares, where old soldiers have
been robbed of their pensions by the
having undoubtedly been fully uti-
lized by the Col" in heating up his
indignation. Pembroke was pen
stoned for sore eyes and drew his
stipend from 1852 to 1875, getting
$6T6.40. In the latter year he was
dropped because it was ascertained
that his disease was not caused by
his service. Here is where the
'colonel's" Indignation should come
in. What business had a Republican
pension bureau in 1876 to discover
that any pensioner was not entitled
to a pension? Why did it, then, ruth
lessly proceed to rob" him of
it? But the colonel is care
full where he locates his anger, and
likewise prudent. The fact is, that
Pembroke drew over $500 that the
pension bureau found nineteen years
ago that he was not entitled to. Con-
sequently he owed the government
that amount. There is nothing in
being an old soldier that exempts
such man from the ordinary obliga-
ton to restore what does not belong
to him.
So, anyway, Commissioner Loeb
rem thought. After the dependent act
of 80 was passed, Pembroke, now
really incapacitated, applied for and
received a pension at $12 a month.
The amount due on the last pension
was a few dollars in excess of the
amount drawn to which he was not
entitled, and the heartless commits
sioner withholds the sum due the

This last remark raises the suspicion
that the "colonePs'' wrath is only a
bit of party fireworks instead of a
genuine outburst of honest ire. But
be that as it may, and it matters
nothing how it may be, we fear
that the case of Pembroke and the
''coloneIs' plant will alike fall on a
dull and cal1ous public.

the reform police commissioners of
the city of New York, by virtue of
the two preceding facts, and by the
grace of Mayor Strong. The COM
missioners are ferreting out the NAL
feasances of the police officers. The
work had the hearty approval of
the colonel. Capt. Eakins, Of the
force, is on trial before the COM
missioners. Commissioner Grant
agrees with the captain that the
trial is crime; and SO remarking,
quits the sitting of the commits
sioners. When Bristow began his
prosecution of the whisky ring
twenty years ago, the president said
Let no guilty man escape" When
Henderson, prosecuting a case at St
Louis, made it clear that a member
of the presidents official family was
connected with the ring, the prose-
cution took on the aspect of crime,
and interest in the conviction of the
guilty men cooled off. Fred Grant
seems to be following that precedent.

CREDITORS WE'RE HAsTY.
McGovan Claims His Concerns
Are All Sound.


TRENTON, N. J., Aug. 4-Ex-Mayor
Frank A. MCGOWAN, whose uneX-
planned absence from the city, brought
on a crisis in his business affairs, re-
sulting in applications for receiver
ships for several concerns in which he
has large interests, returned tonight.
He has been away for ten days, which
time, he alleges, was spent in Chicago
and st. Louis, and devoted to the
transaction of important business OF
a private nature. He is indignant at
the course pursued by his creditors in
having receivers appointed for the
Eastern and Trenton Rubber COM
pany, of which he is president and
general manager, and asserts that he
has ample assets, in the shape of good
collateral, upon which he will tomor-
row raise all the funds necessary to
discharge the Indebtedness of the con-
Germs involved and take them out of
the hands of receivers. He claims that
$30,00 is all that will be required to
accomplish this. He asserts that the
executions upon his residence were
founded upon disputed accounts. He
admits having gone to Chicago on the
same train with Mrs. Barnes the wife
of the former superintendent Of con-
Germs of which MCGOWAN is the head,
and who MCGOWAN discharged and
afterwards had arrested for attempt
ing to shoot him. He says, however
that Mrs. Barnes Travelled with her
mother, sister and brother, all of
whom are now in Chicago with rela-
tives and that he has not seen Mrs.
Barnes since last Monday
