SOME OTHER POINTS.
Police Commissioner Welles is preparing letter
which will give to tho Consolidation Commission
his views regarding the police force Of the Greater
New-York Mr.. Welles has already written TO the
Commission that he favors a uniication Of the
forces of the two cities-municipal, park and
Bridge Commissioner Welles holds that under the
present system there is conflict OF authority. the
municipal police being called upon 10 guard prop
erty along the drives and boulevards. while the
park police enforce the rules OF the Park Depart
ment. As TO the Bridge. he holds that to be merely
a city driveway. and thinks il could better be
guarded by municipal police. As for the pension
FUNDS. he thinks they constitute problem that
requires a good deal of thought.
Commissioner Wellcs does not approve the New
York method OF placing civilians in charge of the
telegraph bureau lie thinks that better results
obtained by putting uniformed men in charge.
and he would give these men the rank of sergeant.
The telegraph operators in Brooklyn are In an
anomalous position, as they have only the rank Of
patrolmen. though they draw the pay OF serSeants.

We this week publish an article
on the subject of the proposed a.
mendment changing the system of
the Courts Of Appeal. from the pen
of Senator w. NJ. Murphy in the
Madison Journal. We quite agree
with Mr.. Murphy, but in our judg-
ment this Court is a useless and an
expensive appendage to the Judici-
airy of our State. In this parish for
many years the docket of this Court
has been almost bare of cases; and
the learned judges in truth enjoy
sinecures SO far as the greater part
of their time is concerned. The
Court of Appeals was organized, as
is well known, for the purpose of
tightening the labors of the SUI
preme Court which had been over
whelmed with business, but the ne
cessity which give birth to the sys-
tenn has passed away. But since we
are to have that Court upon us, it
is best that no change be made for
the many good reasons urged byMr.
Murphy. The added expenses of lit
igation would certainly deter suit
ors from entering The Forum of JUS
tice, for in particles outside of
where the Court would's sit, in a case
involving few hundred dollars in
amount but important principles
of law the appellant wonld either
have TO pay the expences of his
home lawyer to attend the distant
Court, or employ a resident attor-
ney there; in either event he would
find it a losing business even if he
won his case We strongly urge the
voters of this parish to carefully
consider this amendment before
they vote on it.

JOSE MAcEo LIVES

III Private Letters Received at Key West
Tell Truth-spanish Press StiII Pugna-
cious, and Iaboring Under tho Impress
sion that War with the United states ia
Inevitable Only Waiting the Opportune
Moment
NEW YORK, July 21.-A Herald special
from Havana via Key West says:
Private letters from Santo Domingo,
Rodrigo, P,acetas and other points in
Las Villas, declare that Jose Maceo is
there at the head of big force of
rebel reinforcements moving west. If
true, this news fatty con tradcts pre-
vious reports from semi-official Span
ish source announcing Jose Maceo's
death in a fight or by court-martial
near Santiago de Cuba. Henry Brooks
is reported to be with Maceo as chief
of staff
A dispatch from La Discussions cor
respondent in Santa Domingo states
that Rodriguez Maceo is in the vicin.
ity, and is EN- route to Pinar Del Rio to
join his brother.
The utterances of the press through
out Spain continue to find ready echo
in the newspapers of Havana. An in
spired article from La Correspondence
OF Madrid, expressive of sentiment
against the United States, has been
produced and given prominence by the
Havana papers. The article says:
The substitution of the late consul
general at Havana by military per.
sonage OF such prominence and infiu-
ence as Gen. Fitzhugh Lee was looked
upon with suspicion by all Spaniards
from the moment his appointment was
under consideration. The antecedents
OF the American general, as also the
initial steps taken by him in behalf OF
incarcerated insurgents and spies, has
only increased the feeling of suspicion
and tended to confirm the rumors of
speedy rupture with the North Amer.
lean republic.
mo efforts have been made TO remove
these impressions. On the contrary,
every indication strengthens the belief
more and more that their policy is one
of Intervention and reprisal."
El Comercio another prominent
Spanish journal, commenting on the
relations between Spain and the United
States, says:
THE Spanish are becoming impatient
to settle the question by an appeal to
arms The Spanish government is
endeavoring to restrain public out
bursts, but at the same time is pre-
pairing with all the arts of war to
maintain her national integrity. The
matter has passed beyond the stage of
argument, and the Spanish are realiz-
Ing the natural outcome. They only
await to be told by the powers that
the time has arrived
Ell Liberal says, referring to the
efforts made by the cortes, the
conservatives are hypothecating the
future to relieve the present embar-
rassments, and If the estimates are APP
proved, the revenue of the nation will
be incumbcred to the following extent:
Income from the lottery for Is years;
the salt monopoly for 25 years, the to-
bacco tax for 25 years, and the rents
from the Almaden quicksilver mines
for 81 years.
