Partridge Says He's Preparfng 70 hno
BIackn,aii System jerome Silent.
District Attorney Jerome refused yester-
day to discuss the various rumors extant
as to what he intends to do In the excise
crusade.
A story was told about Vice-President
Of a precinct organization Of the Liquor
Dealers Association, who at meeting
declared that he would pay no more black
mail because Mayor Low had said that no
more blackmail need be paid. He was
arrested the next Sunday. His trial for
violating the Excise law Is TO come up In
Special Sessions within few days.
Another story went the rounds to
the effect that Mr.. Jerome does not intend
to make excise arrests upon the evidence
secured by his county detectives and the
Parkhurst agents, but simply to use 1t
against delinquent police captains. The
story was not true because Mr.. Jerome's
oath Of Office requires him to take action
whenever violation OF the law is brought
to his attention, and his failure to do so
would leave him liable to removal by the
Governor. II IL considered likely. however,
that the police themselves will be called
upon to make arrests after the evidence
has been secured.
.Mr. Jerome and are working in har-
mony,' said Police Commissioner Par
fridge yesterday. Il can't tell you my
plans and as for what Mr.. Jerome Is going
to do you will have to see him. But there
Is no trouble between us.
Il am following the same plan that
announced on Jan. 1. that Is, to deal with
the worst evils first. You must not forget
that am working with the tools that were
left for me. Some Of these are rusty and
others need sharpening. I am going to
sharpen those that need It and rub the rust
of the others. There are about 1000 tools.

added with emphasis:

In regard 10 the charges that gambling
houses, poorooms and disorderly resorts
are wide open. District Attorney Jerome
said yesterday that 20 far as saloons were
concerned. he knew that they were as wide
open as ever, and he did not doubt that
the other resorts were as common as report
said. The system Of protection by which
alone this could be, would, he said, eventu-
ally be broken up. Measures were being
taken to do that.

A Scheme to Clog Our Court CAL
endars.

The Albany correspondent OF the
Nep York Times has this interesting
statement to make concerning the
fatuous policy Of the Republican leaders
toward the Judiciary, now apparently
directed towards lessening the num-
ber Of trial courts which can be held
in this city:
Senator BRAcKKrT was asked 10 day whether
his Introduction Of bill last nigh, was Intended
TO deprive Judges who may be assigned to the
First Department OF the extra compensation Of
$40 day which they are now allowed, and whether
the advancement OF a similar bill applying 10 the
Second Department to third reading might be
taken as an indication Of the fact that there was 10
be no compromise.
1.-THE bills mean what they show on their face.
he said So far as l am concerned, l intend to do
all can to pass them
Il, is not believed that Senator BRAcKErT would
push these bills unless he had the approval Of the
Governor, for II is known hero that II was Senator
BRAcKErT who gave the Governor the suggestion
In regard to the necessity OF some action being
taken to remedy the evil OF having up State Judges
taken away from tho districts for which they were
elected when they could not weil be spared
We have already pointed out that
thore have been very few instances Of
the neglect thus complained Of on the
part of out-of-town Judges; and no one
has ventured to question the accuracy
of the statistics which we have pub
lished on this subject.
If the nonresident Supreme Court
Justices who now come here to help the
resident Judges in trying cases are de-
prived of their per diem allowance for
expenses, they cannot afford to come.
The effect Of the deprivation will be i'm
mediate. Five or six parts OF court in
this county and three or four in Kings
county will have to be discontinued,
and the result will be greater clogging
of the calendars than ever.
The effect Of the enactment OF Sena-
tor BRACKETS measure will be very
unfavorable to the Republican party,
not only among the members OF the bar
in this city, but also among the people at
large. The Governor seems to think
that he can prudently disregard public
sentiment OF this sort, but we recall a
significant remark of SAMUEL j. TILDEN
to the effect that emotion plays an i'm
portant part in politics, and that leader
who ignores that fact is blind indeed
The law which Senator BRACKET
with the sanction of the Governor and
the submission of the Legislature pro-
poses to repeal, has worked well for half
century or so; it is highly beneficial to
this city and harmful to no one. To re-
peal it will, under the circumstances, be
a Use of legislative power too plainly
vindictive for disavowal.

GOVERNMENT DEPOSITORIES.

WASHINGTON. March SIT is certain

by the Treasury to secure circulation.
For several months il has been noticed
that some of the national banks were W tn
draw ng their circulation each month
up 20 the legal limit Of So, 10000 II soon
became apparent that the purpose of the
banks was TO get back the bonds which
they had deposited 20 secure their circu-
lating notes, the ultimate object being
10 place the bonds on the market. The
high premium prevailing on Government
bonds was a temptation 20 the banks To
do this. Secretary Shaw is represented
as believing that further object OF the
banks which have been reducing their
circulation is TO make the bonds the basis
of Government deposits, which they hope
10 obtain, but it can be authoritatively
asserted that he will discriminate against
such banks.
