THE POLICE BOARD ANGRY.
,,r1.rERLY DENOUNCING THE NEW

~,,v PAPER ACCUSED OF MANY FALSEHOODs-
VARIOUS CHARGES AGAINST THE POLICE
DEPARTMENT ANswERED-DEFEND-
ING THE EFFICIENCY OF
nh. BOARD of Police Commissioners yesterday
.,nroyed a statement which had been prepared
Nv President Roosevelt as full and final an
.wer to attacks which had appeared In THE
World" The Commissioners declare that there
has been thorough investigation OF forty-five
..orss about highway robberies. burglares and
,,rdred crimes in the city published In that
newspaper. and that only four Of the cases men
,,oned were found to be genuine. The statement
denounces the Misrepresentation of The
World, in the severest terms, and declares that
,ereafter the Commissioners will not take the
,rouble TO contradict any unsupported state
ments which appear in that newspaper.
TENT OF THE STATEMENT
The official statement In full is as follows:
1t is always question how iar Is necesS ua
TO 20 in answering a man who Is convicted mar
For the same reason it is a little difhcut TO de-
eide whether it is necessary to take notice oi any
statement whatever appearing in Mr.. PultZer
naner' The New-York World" 1t is possible, how,
syer tha, there are few people VINO are hllsieu
nv lis noisy and circumstantial mendaciy, and be
cause OF this Vt is worth while once for all TO eN-
and refute every false statement The World
makes because that would need the daily publ
cation of sheet very nearly large The

90 loosely that they only be met by general
denial But on January 20 The World" sutfi-
GENTLY unwary commit itself to definite state

"a catalogue OF the principal highway robberies
and burgaries OF the preceding fifty days. so as
to prove that crime vas increasing In this city,
and the police inefficient. 1t enumerated for
ty-iive cases in all In four The Worlds" state
nnents were true. The remaining best
he dssosed of by arranging them in parallel col
umns containing The Worlds, statement
and the other the actual facts of the case. OF
course where the criminal was either Immediately
arrested else driven off so quickly that the
stolen property forthwith recovered. the fact
rebounds 10 the credit Of the Police Department.

GUIANA GOLD
Not Confined to the Territory Now in
Dispute

LONDON, Oct. 14.-Sir Augustus Hem
ing, governor of British Guiana, arrived
at Plymouth today on board the steamer
Don from Colon.
In an interview Gov. Heming said he
had come to England for holiday and
that he would return in three weeks.
He would have time, he said, only for
a formal call on Mr.. Chamber, the secre-
tary of state for the colonies. The Ven
ezuelan dispute was entirely in the
hands of the home government, and it
was impossible to predict the OUTCOME,
but it was unlikely anything serious
would occur.
The feeling in the colony, he said, was
distinctly British. There was naturally
some dissatisfaction, but the majority
decidedly opposed Venezuelan encroach-
ments. A very strong feeling had been
aroused, he said, by the Intervention
Of the United States.
Venezuela was not itself terrible foe,
but he was convinced that the govern
ment would now soon finally settle the
difficulty. The future of British Guiana.
the governor said, was bright. Gold was
abundant in various parts besides the
disputed district, and there was good
opening for prospectors. The country
only wanted exploring.

passengers and was crossing the rail-
road tracks when struck by the engine.

THE SILVER QUESTION.
Discussed by Twentieth Century Club
Men at Boston.

BOSTON Oct. 1.-THE principal
speaker at the Twentieth Century club
tonight was George S. Boutwell,. who
discussed the silver question. He said
in part:
my part in the preparation Of the
mint bill Of 1873 was very considerable.
The bill was the result in no small
measure of recommendations which
made to congress after careful consid
Grafton Of the existing currency sys-
tenn when I was appointed to the Office
of secretary of the treasury. The bill
contained seventy-one sections, one Of
which called for the demonstration Of
silver. II I am asked the pertinent
question of why l. sought to work a
change in the financial system. will
answer that had come to believe 1t
was for every nation Of the world to
recognize and maintain the gold stand
ard" 3a
Mr. Boutwell, denied that the bill was
forced upon the nation secretly, fraudu-
lently and stealthily. Concerning these
charges he said: "There was not the
least suspicion about the fealty Of any
one until 1873, when the failure Of the
trade dollar was the signal for the cru
sade against the act Of 49,"
