II. P.WassOn

from the Strong regime to be able to OBJ
tain clear ana impartial view of IL. II viii
discover something which is now only dilnly
comprehended, and that is that the gnarly
cid man has performed miracles in the way
of improving and cleansing the city, IN
raising the standard of public morals. IN
lettering the condition of the city's wards
and in giving an honest and clean adminis-
tration. just now Mayor Strong is unpopu-
lar with lots of people who nave not been
close enough to mm or his work, or else too
close to see what he has been doing. IL that
stereopticon campaign had been started
month earlier it would have resulted in his
denomination.
Six weeks ago Mayor Strong thought he
did not want the honor again. He has since
changed his mind He is filled with a panic
of fear lest New York should be cursed with
another season of Tammany rottenneSs, and
he would do anything TO prevent the calam-
ity Not only that. but he begins to wish he
could have four years more in which TO
complete certain sweeping physical reforms.
This did not dawn upon him until quite re-
Gently, but now he would be the proudest
man in American if the warning and spllt-
up anti-Tammany elements should unite on
him as a compromise candidate. Mayor
Strong is really a big figure. He has
amassed a very large fortune during his
fifty years residence in the city, and Tor a
quarter of a century has been in the fore
front of local affairs.

WHY 1T DID NOT INDICT
PROSECUTOR CONNOLLY WRITES OF
RIPLEY COUNTY'S GRAND JURY.
Governor at Once Directs the Attor-
ney General to Take Up
the Investigation.

The Governor received a letter yesterday
from NJ r. Connolly the prosecutor of
Ripley county, confirming the report that
the grand jury had adjourned without find
ing any indictments against the Versailles
lynchers. In his letter he says:
Il write you this letter in explanation of
delay in answering your dispatch TO me at
Versailles. As you perhaps know, do not
live at Versailles, but at BatesVllle, sixty
miles by rail and twenty-five miles by di-
rect drive from Versailles. The grand jury
reported and were discharged Wednesday
evening, and !. having cases that were ur-
gently demanding my presence in Brook
vile, the county seat of Franklin county,
Immediately left for that place. / arrived
home Saturday very sick and utterly un-
able to leave my room. |, of course, did not
receive your dispatch. but was wired after
ward by the receiving office at Versailles,
which / received Saturday, and which /
now answer, as soon as able
The grand jury did not return any in
dictmentS against the mob for the reason
that they did not succeed in ascertaining
any person in it. All the people who would
naturally have the most interest in appre-
hending the guilty parties were brought
before the jury, but unfortunately were un-
able to give us anything more certain than
suspicion and small circumstances that
might or might not be true. The grand
jury, with my aid, faithfully examined q
large number of persons whom we were led
to believe might be able to put us on the
trail of the guilty parties, but they all testi-
fled differently, so l am only able to re-
port to you a failure SO far, for which L
am truly sorry.
The Governor at once transmitted the let
ter to the attorney general. directing him
to take up and make thorough investiga-
ton of the case in his own time and way.
81 mean this to be no reflection upon the
judge, prosecutor or grand jury of Ripley
county" said the Governor. Il realize the
conditions in Ripley county make the sub
ject very difficult one to deal with, and
l believe the officials there have done their
duty, but we cannot permit the disgrace of
means within the power of the State to
bring the violators of the law to justice"
