Threats of BIoodshcd.
NEV YORK, July 9,-The demon
STATIONS against the reserved park

charged. were continued in Madison
Square Park to-day. A mob several
hundred strong, took the police by sur
prise and began a Wholesale destruction
of the chairs at the north end of the
swept from his feet and carried down
with his property. The chairs were
scattered over the pathways and the
police reserves were unable to quell the
riot for a time. They charged VITA
drawn clubs and several men were ar
rested.
One of the occupants of a pay chair
to-day was Terry McGovern, the pugil-
list, who called upon one OF the at
tendants Ito come and collect" The
attendant, however, did not accept the
invitation. In the early evening at
Madison Square the crowd kept grow
ing larger and larger and blocked the
path where the pay chairs were. The
police were practically unable to clear
a passageway. Two men sat down. One
of the chair men attempted to collect
from these men. They only laughed at
him and another attendant without
further parley walked to the rear of ths
chairs and dumped the occupants out.
This precipitated a sQuabble and as the
cheering crowd encouraged the men -
stand by their guns, the police interferred
and the two men and the second at
tendant were marched to the police
station. The attendant was not held,
but one of the men was on a charge of
disorderly conduct.

It's a queer situation that has arisen
over the Spate pay-chairs in New York's
public parks. The police refuse to pro-
tect spate in demanding nickels for
seats from the public. But if Mr.. Spate
is without the pale of the laws protec-
ten his enterprise must be outside the
law. And itit is illegal, why is it per-
mi1ed? The official attitude toward
Zfate is inconsistent. Meanwhile an
.srchy on a small scale prevails in the
public parks in the uninterrupted battle
between Spate's men and the public.

LINES TO 4 QUEER OLD PARTY.

Dear old Grandma of Fourteenth
street says the Register follows the
Intelligencer in advocating the annex
alton of Fulton"
How like the ancient dame, The
Register advocated the annexation Of
Fulton years ago. when the Old Lady
Of Fourteenth street. if we remember
rightly, was "agin" it, or at least in
ciined to sprinkle 1t with cold water,
because, pursuing her usual dog-in-the-
manger policy the old creature declined
advocated first. This peculiar eharac-
teristic-much in evidence In her COM
ments in the present instance-has gen.
orally led her to oppose every great inn
provement that has been made in this
city-simply because@since the old soul
usually enjoys the time nodding in
gentle o~blivion-the Register has al
ways taken the lead in advocating such
improvements. And she is MORALLY
jealous of the Register.
This ungentle characteristic of the
otherwise harmless old thing led her to
viciously oppose such enterprises as
the Union railroad bridge, the Main
street stone bridge and many other i'm
portant and successful measures-and
all simply because the Register was
first to suggest them. 1t VAS most
childish, to be sure, as is her %quernlous
and essentially peurile attitude in the
latest case in point-the annexation of
Fulton, first advocated by the Regis
ter.
The old creature rapidly nears second
childhood, and it were a shame to call
attention to her falling were she less
spiteful and ugly about it.
But she's a silly old girl. and her pc
culiarities add to the amusement fea-
lures these Carnival days.
