PLATTS WORK N WESTCHESTER.

JUDGE MARTINS DECISION SUSTAINING HIS CAN
DIDATE EASILY EXPLICABLE.
To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: read with interest the exposure in your
paper OF the attempt OF the Plat political ma
chine to force upon the Republicans Of West
chester County boiling Plat Republican by
the name OF Ben L. Fairchlld as a candi-
date for Congress against the regularly nomi-
mated candidate. William L. Ward. and have
read with equol interest the opinion OF Judge
Celora E. Martin. of the Court Of Appeals. up
holding this attempt which you also published.
II Is entirely in keeping with the operations
Of the Plat machinery that this opinion should
have been written by Judge Martin. as 1t was
that Benjamin F. Tracy should make the argu-
ment. for Judge Martin is as much indebted TO
the Plat machinery for his place In the Court
Of Appeals Mr.. Tracy indebted to the
Plat machinery for his employment TO make
the argument, or for his nomination as Platts
candidate for Mayor Of Greater New-York.
Plat and Tracy are from Tioga County. and
Judge Martin is from the adjoining county OF
Broome
The Reputation OF the Plat machinery and
Plattsm was even more emphatic In West
chester than in NewYork at the recent election;
for in Westchester the regular Republican can
didate, William l.. Ward, received 80, IOo votes.
and the boiling Plat and Martin candidate got
only 10 votes.
Judge Martin and the members OF the Court
who supported him In his plan to force bolt
ing Plat candidate on the Republicans Of West
chester must have felt proud Of this effort to
uphold the corrupt machinery OF a corrupt boss!
The city OF Binghamton, with Republican
majority OF over one thousand has just re-
undated a Plat Mayor by over FIVE hundred
majority.
How long o Lord will this wicked Platt ma
chinery and PIattism-a power obtained and
held by bribery and fraud-be permitted to curse
the State OF New-YOrk? Not long. ! trust, as
the handwriting Is already upon the wall.

Washington Dec 9.-An investiga ton now be-

to throw a great deal Of light on the recent wide
ly discussed shortage of Ainsworth r. Spofford
the former Librarian. An examination by the
Treasury Department about year ago showed
Mr. SpofYord to be about 10000 short in his ac-
counts. Few people who knew him looked upon
this at the time anything more than an evil
dence OF clerical negligence In his department.
Now it appears that large part. II not ALL OF

records Of money orders from postmasters which
are never presented for payment by the persons

orders addressed to the Librarian Of Congress
Is perhaps greater than all the Others combined.

FAIL RIVERS WAGE REFLECTION.

Fall River. Mass. Dec. 9.-Everybody 10 waiting
for the presentation OF the new schedule OF wages
which the mill mems committee has authority 10
put into effect The general belief Is that the cut
down will be about II per cent. though this cannot
be definitely stated. During the present depression
there has been talk OF cutting down the
treasurers and other high -salarled mill officials, but
as this IL matter for individual boards OF directors
and not for the Manufacturers Association 1t is not
yet known whether the step will be taken. BusI-
ness men complain to-day that the decision OF the
mill men yesterday will have baneful effect on
the holiday trade. A cut-down OF IL per cent would
mean a reduction OF about $4,000 week the
operatives In this city.
Manchester, n. H.. Dec. s.-Heman r. Straw,
agent Of the Amoskeag Corporation said to-day
that tho cut-down In cotton-mil wages In Fall
Jsiver would not be followed In this city, and II
was not probable that Fall Rivers example would
be followed in other New England mill towns.
