Special Gable Despatch to THE Sun.
LONDON, Oct. 9..-Some smart Americans have
caught mapping somo smart Scotchmon. and
much consequent bad language has been heard
in Glasgow this week. 1t seems that the Gas
Committee of tho Glasgow CORPORATION wanted
big supply next year Of large cast.iron piping,
and tenders were invited in tho usual way.
There happens 20 be ring in this particular
business. and the Glasgow ironmasters, not
dreaming Of American competition, put ia
pretty stif prices. rs they had successfully done
in the past. When tho tenders came to be
opened 1t was found that an American firm
offered to deliver the pipes for IS o ton less
than tho lowest homo tender.
Such tremendous row has been kicked up
at the idea OF giving tho contract to foreigners
that the Gas Committee has been practically
coerccd into postponing definite decision;
but as the acceptance of tho American tender
means saving of nearly $4,000 the probabli.
ties are that the United States will have tho
honor of supplying the pipes after all.

CTS LEAGUED WITH TAMMANY.
Tho Uniou's Assembly Nominations Admittedly
In tho Interest or tho wigwnm.


In tho Interest or tho Wigwnm.
Republican. high in financial circles and
close friend of President Mckinley, Senator
Platt. and Seth Low. met well-known member
of the Citizens Union yesterday and asked
him how he could defend the present posi-
tion of Mr.. Low and his associates.
adding that he thought that every principle OF
honesty in politics and finance bound all Repub
leans to stand with tho Republican orRaniza-
tion at this time. Tho Low man re.
piled that, whilo this might be true
the underlying principle was the independence
OF municipal government, which must be at
tanned at all hazards. Tho Republican then
said to the Low man:
If you are honest in this statement, what do
you mean by nominating candidates for the
Assembly,"
The reply to this was: why. it is necessary,
OF course, for us to control the Legislature"
The Republican then asked tho Low man II
this was not going into State politics. The Low
man replied "Of course it is. but we do 1t sim
ply because it is absolutely necessary to en-
tirely reform the existing Greater New York
charter in accordance with our views"
In other words. Mr.. Low and his friends bv
nominating their candidates for Assembly will
pcrforce in close districts elect Tammany Hall
Assenbymen.
1t is thus indicated by the Low mans admis.
sions that the Low men have joined hands with
Tammany Hall to elect Asscmblymcn, as there
Is not the slightest possibility that the Cits can
elect q single Assenblyman nominated by then.

BIG Gaze IN oyoxDAGA COUNTY.
Explorers Descend 100 Feet Into Cnpacious
Chambers with stnlnctItc Ceilings.

SYRACUSE, Oct. 9.-Thc limestone formation
of Onondaga county has been known for years
to abound in assures and small caves, but to-
day a cavern that is believed TO be of great cx-
tent was discovered in the town of Lafayette u
few miles from this city. Several years ago n
farm laborcr, while raking hay in field on tho
historic Danforth farm, just outside Of La
fayctto village, fell with his horse into pit
about twelve feet deep by the giving way Of tho
earth. The "cavc.in" was at hat time believed
TO indicate simply the presence of a wash. out
caused by the spring rains, but recently somo
of the more curious residents of tho place
planned explorations.
To-day two men with picks and shoves re-
moved the surface earth and found tho OPEN
ing of what is believed to be a cavern OF great
extent by means OF ropes they descended
nearly vertically for more than hundred feet
through very rough and Jagged passage with
plenty OF room for two or three men to pass
abreast. On the way through this tortuous
passage thcro are here and there side pockets,
or rooms, with stalacttc ceilings. At tho hot
tom Of the shaft many openings, through
which the vaulted roofs Of capacious chambers
are visible. These chambers are hung with
stalacttcs of pearly whitcness.
A brisk current of air at all times passes
through the chambers sufficient in volume to
extinguish lighted candles. The explorers
| found it necessary to use lanterns that shielded
| the flame from the draught. This Is thought
| to indicate thai the cave is OF great extent.
| A similar but smaller cave was discovered
several years ago near GAINESVILLE. II was
| explored for some distance, but not to its cX-
| tremty, as loose overhanging rocks frightened
| away the explorers. The local geologists will
investigate the cave fully.
