OUTSIDERS KEPT MOVING.
POIJCE PREVENT THE GATHERlN" or
CROWDS IN THIRTY -TIIIRD-ST

Aa,r,, "a O'clock last evening people who were
curious TO see something Of the preparations TOT the
ball walked into Thirty third-st. between tltth-aVe
ard Broadway and gazed al the Waldorf in passing
They would formed a crowd at that early nour
If the police had permitted them TO loiter By
o'clock there was crowd In the block in spite OF the
constant warnings of the police, which kept people
moving along the sidewalks, although there was
really nothing unusual 10 see there. on each SIDE
walk people moved along in seemingly endless pro-
cession There were persons OF all grades in the
crowd but many were well dressed and looked as II
they accustomed to the WAYS OF polite soclety
Fifty policemen were strung along the sidewalks
in tho block. They were under the immediate COM
rnand of Deputy Chief Cortright. Acting Inspector
Harley and Captain Chapman They had little TO
do in the early part of the evening and they joked
with each other as they walked few steps this
way and that way, keeping themselves warm by
stamping on the sidewalk and Shaping their hands
Fifty more policemen were waiting IN the ponce
station in East Thirty-ffth-st
The people who wanted to what they could
not see continued to increase in number. ana by
o'clock the policemen in the block were obliged
70 argue with them TO prevent them from forming
n blockade in front OF the Waldorf. 1t was still two
hours before the guests at the ball were to arrive
nj the hotel and the newspapers had announced
the fact that the ball would not begin until mid
night but thousands OF people apparently thoush'
that they had merely to go near the hotei 10 see
the society people In costume. and there were
abundant ordinations of surprise and disappoint|
nent in the moving throng.
The moribund curiosity increased in the next
hour. and Deputy Chief Cortright seeing that the
crowd would interfere with the carriages OF the
arriving guests at the ball. decided TO close the
block TO ordinary traffic. and gave the necessary
orders to the police. Fifty more policemen were
summoned from the station in East Thrty-fifh-st,
and they formed lines across Thirty-third-st. at
Fifth-ave and about 100 feet east of Broadway,
about 10 o'clock Then the serious work OF the
police began Many persons declared that the
closing OF the street by the police was an Outrage
and they wanted to argue the question or Inc
rights OF citizens to go through the street the
policemen were under orders and would not yield
but thev were as good natured as possible. ana
said '.pease" whenever they turned people back.

PRINCIPLE BEFORE PELF.

Senator Gallery, of Louisiana, has not
only refused the bride contained in the
Dingley bill, in the shape of increased
duties on raw sugar, the Senator, him
self. being a sugar grower, but has
poured some good, hot shot into certain
mercenary folks in his own State, who
have endeavored to influence him in
the matter. In reply to the New Or
leans Board Of Trade, Sugar Exchange
and Chamber Of Commerce, all of which
Heartily endorse" the Dingley bill and
request their Senators and Representa-
tives to Cooperate in its passage,
Senator Gallery publicly administers a
singing rebuke to his correspondents
for their assumption that he would join
them in sacrificing principles for pelf
His letter is of some length and OF
more strength. He denounces the Ding
lev bill as the result of a traffic or
barter. whereby the support of powerful
corporations and protected interests
was obtained for it, in consideration of
being taken care of in its schedules, "
and says that every man, woman and
child in the United States is placed I'M
der tribute to corporate greed and prl-
vate rapacity by the provisions of the
bill" After discussing the authority
of the correspondents to request him to
take "a commercial view of political
question" Senator Gallery says they
have taken a wrong view of the bill,
considered even from the narrow stand
point of local interest. 1t is a mistaken
policy. he suggests, to drop a party
which recognized their product as a
revenue product, and join a party which
in 1890 placed it on the free list. 1t is
worse than mistaken policy, he tells
them. to clamor for more duty on sugar
because woods and chemicals, ETC.. are
getting too much.
The Dingley bill, Senator Caffery
says. carries rates between 7 and 10
per cent higher than the Mckinley bill.
1t is, in my opinion, indefensible from
any standpoint of protection or tarliI
for revenue. 1t will blight the budding
promise of increased export of Amer
lean manufactures. 1t will cripple the
export of our cereals. fibre, fuel and raw
materials. 1t will add enormously to
the burden of the toiling masses of our
people. 1t will create greater discon-
tent where discomfort is already threat
ening the peace and stability of society.
And it violates the cardinal, essential
cherished principles Of Democracy
He closes with the declaration: Il will
not vote for it. will vigorously oppose
it. "
One Louisiana Senator can be count
ed against the bill, notwithstanding its
sugary inducement Whether Senator
McEnery will also refuse to be sweet
ened is not known.

The Register referred the other day
in a few lines TO the latest effort of the
the wool liar. namely the attempt to
create i'm the minds of those people who
know nothing about the wool business.
the impression that the boom in the
wool market on the seaboard, which
has been going on since the agitation OF
the Dingley bill. is one of the good eff
fects of that measure felt in advance.
OF course nobody was fooled who knew
anything about the wool trade, such as
the wool-grOwers. the merchants and
the manufacturers, but the vote Of the
man who knows nothing about wool
counts as much as the vote of the most
expert wool sharp, and it is the game
of the wool liar TO mislead the ignorant,
for the we'll informed pay no attention
10 him. And the well informed know
that the boom now in progress in the
