rRY TELEGRAPH To THE TRIsuNEl

Austin. Tex Oct ia dispatch from Por-
frio Diaz Mexico. says that William H. Mealey.
a prominent American mining man. who was ar
rested and thrown in Jail at Monterey. Mexico, a
few days ago. brought TO Ciudad Porhrio
Diaz last night and placed in a foul cell in the
city prison. His cell has mud floor and Is reek-
ing in filth.
The United States consul called TO see the
prisoner. and was refused admittance 10 the Jail
Although the offence charged against Mr. Mealey
Is baIlabIe under Mexican laws all offers of bail
have been denied. and no information can be
obtained as to when he will have a hearing. He
is charged with contempt of court in not an
swering a summons to appear in court In a
mining litigation to which he is a party. Mr.
MeaIey was unable to answer the summons
owing to illness. and his counsel appeared for
him.
He alleges that the authorities are in league
with the claimants TO the mining properties in
volved In the litigation and that his late arrest
Is for the purpose of forcing him to give up his
claims to these mines, which are valued at
So 900. He says that as an evidence of this
an offer was made TO give him his liberty If he
would give up all claim TO the properties. The
litigation went through all the courts, and every
decision was favorable to Mr. Mealey. The
Minister of Finance however. arbitrarily re-
scinded the decision of the courts and gave the
mines to the claimants who had been defeated
in the courts.
Mr. Mealey alleges that powerful influences
high up in government official circles brought
about this decision. and the ones who are
back of his arrest and prosecution.
Acting Secretary of State Adee has directed
Ambassador Clayton TO take active steps to
cure Justice for Mr.. Mealey.
A petition signed by five thousand members of
the American colony of Monterey has been tele-
graphed to President Roosevelt in Mr.. Mealey's
behalf,

TAMMANY'S SILLY POSTERS.
NEW ONE ABOUT THE BROOKLYN
BRIDGE Is MISLEADING
WHAT 1T OMITS

Tamnany's latest campaign poster is about as
weak as its ludicrous Carnegie" effort. The new
placards set forth the fact that William Barclay
Parsons has declared the Brooklyn bridge TO be
safe" and then they exhort the voters to rebuke
the political party which has tried TO destroy
the peoples confidence in the bridge for partisan
purposes" These posters do not state the fact
that they Tammany officials who In a panic
OF fear lest the bridge should break down stopped
all traffic upon the structure and made the people
use the ferries thereby starting that destruction
of the peoples confidence IN the bridge which Is
complained Of, The pIacards omit all mention OF
the fact that IT was a Tammany Bridge Commits
sioner who, 10 futile effort 10 restore confidence
issued such a ridiculous manifesto about the
bridges capacity TO bear weight that the public
alarm Cnly increased by contemplation OF
what ignoraIaus in charge of the structure
Here is what Shea said: You can pile cars upon
the bridge high you get them and
make a solid string of them from one end Of the
bridge to the other, and the structure viii not be
in the least affected by IT." No wonder the public
lost confidence in the bridge after such silly bonn
bast that.
The posters also omit TO mention the fact that
several engineering papers, OF political at
all, gave their expert opinions the effect that
the bridge was being dangerously
The placards omit all mention Of the fact that the

structure under Tammany IN emphatic terms

VAN WYCK NOT AMONG THEN.
COLER SAYS THERE ARE GREAT MEN
IN NETWORK. AND DON'T MEAN
HER POLITICIANS OR HER
MAYOR, EITHER"

Controller Coer addressed the Young Mems
Christian Association meeting in Music Hall
Yonkers yesterday. and in the course of his re-
marks made several illusions TO the government of
New-York City. My mind has been so busy with
other subjects of late" he said when introduced
that L don't know whether l give you a Sun
day talk or not. Sometimes l think l would rather
set men TO thinking of leading better lives than TO
hold any office in the gift of the people"
MI Coler took for his text Thy will be done -
and said that the best way to guarantee the re-
wards of the future is TO accomplish something
here on earth. 1t is good thing to be orthodox
but better thing to accomplish something No
government ever be any better than the aver
age intelligence of the citizens We have our great
upheavals when one gang goes In and the other
gang goes out, but in the long the conditions
will be better than the citizens average in
tegence.'
The speaker then referred TO New -York's impor-
tance in the commercial world. and predicted that
IN less than three years II would be the financial
centre OF the world. He referred TO the founders
OF New-Yorks many great institutons and. said:
There are great men in New-fork who hayehnade
the city famous, and don't mean her politicians
or her Mayor, either, The way 10 make a city or
country great IS make their citizens great Pick

HEAVY REGISTRATION IN THE lid
AROUSES SUSPICION.

The heavy registration in the lid Assembly DIS
trIct on Saturday. which showed an increase or
more than five hundred the corresponding day
in 1881 has resulted in renewed activity on the
part Of John McCulagh. Superintendent OF Eiec-

Der Of hoaters who had been brought into this
district both by Foley and PADDY" Diver for
the primary fight. have been kept there to pad out
the election rolls. Foley himself acknowledges
that he has made an extraordinary effort to get
out big registration. both TO vindicate his eleva-
tion 10 the leadership of the district and also to
helm TO secure the election OF the Tammany ticket.
The registration Of the I'D has been closely
watched by McCuagh's men and deputies have
been stationed in each of the twenty election dis
trfcts Fifteen per cent OF the men who have

standing such vigilance. a great number viii re-
new their attempts both on Friday and Saturday
Of this week According 10 official OF the Elee-
tions Bureau yesterday, the registration OF many
"foaters'' cannot possibly be prevented because
there are not enough deputies to cover every cleo
tion district.
Evidence that colonization is going on IN other
parts OF the city and especially IN districts where
the Republican majority is small. is daily coming

PLAT'ZEK EXPLAINS UNGER.
BY REFERRING HIS QUESTION
ERS TO THE JUDGES.

Henry w. Unger. the Tammany candidate for
District Attorney, continued yesterday firm in his
refusal TO make point blank denial that Frank
Farrell, the poolroom owner. had. charged by
Justice Jerome, procured the nomination for him.
Unger referred reporters who wanted TO know why
he was nominated to any all the judges Of the
Supreme or the criminal court bench for an ex-
planation. The Tammany candidate does not mean
by this evasion that these judges wanted him
nominated aided him in getting 1t, but he mere
ly wished 10 them for reference as TO his
ability to I'LL the position. None of these judges
could be seen yesterday, but NJ. Marley Patzek.
Tammany lawyer. Of Committee OF Five fame
said:
OF course the Judges know and we lawyers
Know why Mr.. Unger was nominated 1t was pc
lty ana his valuable experience Assistant DIS
trict Attorney Mr. Unger is quite safe in referring
you 10 any Judge before whom he has practised
Tor recommendation TO his fitness for the high
ONCE. When Mr.. Unger went further than that
and referred reporters TO Senator Depew as we'll
as TO the judges, he meant. doubt to show that
he was not afraid 10 have his fitness and ability
judged by any truthful public man, be he Repub-
lican or Democrat.
The fact remains. nevertheless. that in spite of
testimonials his ability, no. denial can be
procured OF Judge Jerome's charge that Unger is
Frank FarrelIs choice for District Attorney.
