What He Says Regarding Gilhuly's Acquittal.
 Regarding the dismissal of the Gill; huly matter by the board of aldermen Rev. pr. Smyth has said in an inter- viewi
 q will make just these remarks cons corning the present condition of the po- lice investigation:
 "First-Mr. Gilhuiy is entitled to the full benefit of his reputation of the ma- 1ority vote of the aldermen dismissing the charges against him without rebut- tai of evidence and without argument in full upon 1t.
 "Secondly-The matter of present public interest, which we shall careful " watch, is the effect which this con- tinuance of Mr. Gilhuiy in office will have upon the police in their enforce ment of the liquor law. If Commis- sioner Gilhuly justifies the vote of the aldermen by giving his best energies to secure a thorough enforcement of the law against the numerous violators of it down in the Second precinct, we shall be in a position to know it and to rec ognize it.
 "Thirdly-The investigation has ex- posed the existing condition of things in the police department, and demon- strated the necessity, if we are to have an efficient police service, that men of the highest character should be put upon the police commission, and no man elected to that board of whom any pa- trolman can have any suspicion or fear in the discharge of his duty against any power of lawlessness. Our first citizens ought to be willing to serve on our com missions,
 'Fourthly-The new civic movement has come to this city to stay. The men engaged in it cannot be tired out, nor discouraged. I have never felt more confident Of ultimate results. One chap ter of municipal reform was ended last evening, but another chapter is begun this morning The work is going on to the end of the volume. We have now under advisement a plan of reorganiz- ing the Law and Order league on a somewhat broader basis as a good gov eminent club for the sake of maintain ing for the next ten years, if necessary, an organized vigilance with regard to all municipal affairs. Persistent effort may in time make New Haven rank among the first of the cities of this country, which the new civic movement is going to redeem from neglect and partisan misrule."

Activity and Advances Confined to the
 Industrials.


 Industrials.
 New York, April 27.--StoclSs moved to- day almost entirely under the inspira- tion of smaller local speculators. This involved, of course. for reasons set forth yesterday. a general display of strength in. the industrials. Sugar ad- vance E, Tobacco 1as, Lead 3l, Whiskey B, Rubber 1A, Leather preferred 2%, and though not all these advances held until the close, the group continued the one center of activity.
 Elsewhere, prices hardly changed from yesterdays quotations. The coal stocks were irregular with occasional tendency to weakness, but the sales were nowhere large. Reading did not reflect opinion on the company's very remarkable iMarchl statement. The net results for this month, in the face of anthraciteitrad demoralization,a are decidedly the best attained in any month since the receiversihip. Espec- ially the surplus of $1771O for the Coal and. Iron company, against deficit of $169,00O in February, will excite both comment and surprise.
 The March net returns in railways thus far published are uniformly en- couraging. The Granger statements are delayed, and all things considered, 1t is probable that their figures will be much less pleasant reading. It is plain, however, that in the market stocks of these companies are now being dealt in with 90 9view to six months hence.
