TAGGART'S OLD FORCE
THREE MORE GIVEN BERTHs UNDER
THE CITY ADMINISTRATION.
The Democratic Courthouse Ring
Now FairIy Installed I'm the
Basement.

A trip through the courthouse basement,
where the Taggart administration is in
stalled, brings to sight all the dear faces
that were familiar TO people who had &C.
casion to go into the county auditors Of
flee when Mr.. Taggart filled 1t. He who
fails to provide for his own family is worse
than an infidel. so IL is said, and Mr.. Tag
CART thinks pretty much the same way
about the old courthouse ring. He has
provided for the old crowd as fast as he
could make a place, and now there is
hardly an ex-employe of the county au-
ditor's office unprovided for. Three more
were given places yesterday. Martin Muir
ply, who, as bailiff in the County Com
missioners' Court, was one of Auditor Tag
CARTS chief factotums, was appointed dep
uty city controller to succeed Dare Nc
Beth, who resigned to take a more lu-
crative position In the insurance line. An
other of the old courthouse ring was gath
cred into Mr.. Taggarts fold yesterday.
NJ. z. Laughlin, a local politician of some
prominence, who was janitor under the
late Democratic county administration.
was appointed an inspector in the engi-
neer's department. Mr.. Laughlin filed a
civil service application few hours before
he was appointed, but he has been seeking
a snap ever since he lost his former one.
What Mr.. Laughlin knows about city
work remains to be demonstrated. but his
application, Mr.. Laughlin says he has
never before been employed in public
service, but 1t is thought that in the hurry
he misunderstood the question. His salary
is placed at $50 a month. Thomas w. Cecil
was appointed a clerk in the assessment
bureau in much the same manner, for he
prepared his application to suit his ap-
pointment. Mr. Cecil will receive $50 a
month. He was under Mr.. Taggart while
auditor.
The hegira in the courthouse basement
from the auditors Office began with
Messrs. Taggart and Johnson When Mr..
Johnson became controller he appointed as
a clerk one of the force from the auditor s
Office Then Bert Spencer. another of the
old force, became private secretary TO the
Mayor. w. w. Hughes, deputy auditor.
was given the chief clerkship of the as
sessment bureau. Then came the three
appointments yesterday.

FATHER OF THE MONROE DOCTRINE
Prof. Shepnrdson Gives that Credit to
John Quincy Adams.

John Quincy Adams and American
Diplomacy" was the subject of the lecture
in the university extension course delivered
by Prof. f. w. Shepardson in the chapel
house of st. Paurs Church last night.
Professor Shepardson said that from his
earliest years John Quincy Adams had
been thrown into diplomatic environments.
When but eleven years of age he accom-
panied his father upon a mission to France
and three years later began his own career,
as assistant secretary of legation, in Paris.
Party divisions in America, the instability
of public credit and the constant cringing
to foreign powers made early American
diplomacy exceedingly disagreeable and dis
couraging. the speaker said. American min
listers were. not only required 10 represent
the new Republic among the nations of the
world. but were also expected to raise
money to support the government. Frank
lin, Jay. the elder Adams and others were
constantly called upon to meet the obliga-
tons of Congress and Henry Lawrence,
after being captured and thrown into the
Tower of London, had bills of acceptance
drawn upon him by his government. 1t was
in the face of such embarrassing circum-
stances the younger Adams devoted his life
10 diplomatic service on behalf of his coun-
try, and FOR forty years carried on nego-
tiations With foreign nations and exerted
himself TO secure treaties that did much to
establish the credit of America. After that
he was called upon TO fill the office of Sec
rotary of State. which he did with credit
and distinction for twelve years.
The speaker said that after Adams was
elected President he laid down the central
idea OF the so-called Monroe doctrine" in
the controversy with Russia. when he said,
The American continents are no longer 10
be considered subject 10 European colonial
ton He believed in the idea of manifest
Destiny" feeling that the ultimate bounds
of the United States were To be those of
81 I'm of ~.
with this idea uppermost in his mind that
he insisted upon having boundary estab-
lished between Spanish and American pos
sessions The speaker Thought that the
greatest triumph of his diplomatic career
was the definition of the Zine of 1884,
The subject of the lecture next Friday
will be Andrew Jackson and Nullfication."

A BRIEF CABINET MEETING.
Board Of Health Reports on the Dis
pensary Proposition.

The monthly meetings of the heads of
city departments growing careless
Yesterday a meeting was held which last
ed but fifteen minutes. and all present
showed an anxiety TO get away. The
spirit of the charter was remembered
however. At the meeting the members Of
tn Board Of Health reported on the City
Dispensary matter, and what was said in
dicates that the institution will be abol-
ished. City Sanitarian Ferguson has con-
suited the faculties of the medical colleges
and they show a willingness TO cooperate
with the Board of Health in turning the
college dispensaries into public institu-
tons. change as contemplated means
the adjustment of the office of superin-
tendent of the dispensary The probability
is that each college will hold as an in
ducement TO students the position of an
inferno. who will be appointed after an
examination. Such an arrangement will
give other schools than the regular rep
resentation on the staff.
The park commissioners reported that
the beard wishes TO convert to a park the
fourteen acres of ground belonging to the
State and lying between the Deaf and
Dumb Institute and the Female Reforma-
tory. The board proposes TO begin with
the work at once.
