TENDERS HIS RESIGNATION.
Assistant Chief of Police Green no Longer
 On the Force.

This morning Assistant Chief Of Police Tom Green handed in his resignation to his superior officer. This was caused by the Mayors criticism of Mr. Greens action in liberties on mardi gras night. Many of these women dressed themselves in male attire and paraded the streets until a late hour without police interference. Mir. Green belle ved that in allowing them to do this he was simply following precedents set years past, and as his views and the Mayors did not coincide he rendered his resignation.

Philadelphia papers, I guess, su, gested Mr. Coxey.

Philadelphia papers, I guess, sug- gested MT. Coxey.
 You can't trust newspapers D answered the Senator. Look how they had the people scared about you and your army. Nobody sc%red cent when they saw you"
 Coxey rallied gamely and deftly countered with his celebrated non interest bond plan.
 "The trouble about your speech is that it dosen't suggest any remedy, said Mr. Coxey. Now, 1 have a remedy that will wipe out this evil you talk about, and bring wealth, peace and prosperity to the nation. l would wipe out all interest"
 You can't abolish interest, 7, said Air. Tillman positively.
 And you can't pass the silver bill, . retorted MT. Coxey. .'It re. qulres the law in both cases. Why, the government has abolished in terest as far as furnishing money to the national banker is concerned All the money the national bankers get from the government they get without interest. Now, why should not the government furnish money direct to all the people without interest bs setting the idle and un- employed to work on public im- provements?"
 This shot was fired at muzzle velocity of 8,765. $40 feet a second and it carried the South Carolina Senator back into the chamber.

THE WHIRR OF MACHINERY.
The Conversation That Took Place When These States men Compared Notes
 and Exchanged
 COnfiden-

Senator B. J. Tillman and Gen. Jacob 5. Coxey were introduced to each other in the lobby of the Senate yesterday afternoon, says the Washington Post. For the next ten minutes one couldenat hear any thing but the sound of the machin- cry. At the expiration of that time the entente cordiale had been spilled all over the floor, and the states men were saying politely sarcastic things to one another.
 It all started out with Tillman's recent speech. The Senator is proud of that speech, and proposes to have about 2,000,0 copies printed. If the postotfice authorities do not prohibit it's passage through the mails for statutory reasons, Uncle sam will have to carry it free under the Tillman frank.
 The Senator told all of this to the leader of the Commonweal Army, and was predicting several surpris- # ing things which would result from { the farmers perusal of the speech. $ II don't know,o said the farmer 5 with a far=away look in his eyes. After spoke before the Finance H Committee I printed and circulated I dyer half million copies of my # speech, Cause and Cure It cost T ne an awful lot of money" l The people are going to buy MY Il speech" responded Mir. Tillman. | Are they?' inquired Mir. Coxey; If you had tried to sell things $ around this country as hard az l # have you would change your mind @ about that"
 No, I wouldn't" answered Mir. # Tllman stontly as he nudged the # door of the chamber open with ii his foot. Do you see that desk in # there? See that pile of letters? Well, that's from people who eom- mended my speech. That's just one X mailn
 "Yes, I know" replied the unim- pressed General. That's just the sort of mail used to get when l # was in jail. The chief thing noticed about it was that it didn't get me out. got some thousands of let ters, but there are 70,000,000 people # n this land.
 Every one of whom read my speech' inserted MT. Tillman. ssIeres good specimen of their e0mment.n J
 Mir. Tillman fished out letter and handed it to Mir. CoXey. That is from Indianapolis. Read it.
 Well. this seems to be about the hottest roast I ever read" commen- ted Goxey after reading a few lines, \ and it's from Philadelphia.
 MT. Tillman looked grieyed. ''I guess gave you the wrong letter, {" ne said. 'I got few of these, but They don't hurt me.
 Well, they hurt me whole lot, 8said Mir. Coxey ruefully. Now, you take that editorial. What sort *bI an idea are readers of that paper 4oing to get out of you? They are
