THE DEVERY INCIDENT.

The sensational feature of the Demo-
cratic convention of New York was the
refusal of the convention to recognize
the right of w. S. Devery and his fell
low delegates from the Ninth assembly
district of New York city to seats in
the convention. Mr.. Devery had the
proper certificates of election but the
charge was made that he had carried
the district by bribery and fraud.
The Goodwin delegation also asked
to be permitted to represent the Ninth
district, but the convention thought II
advisable to seat no delegation from
that district. There is no doubt of
course, that Devery got a plurality
of the votes cast. The campaign was
marked by a great deal of feeling. Dew
cry spent money freely. Indeed, it is
said that he bought votes by whole
sale. All through the campaign he used
every means known in political battles
to make himself boss of the district.
He gave great picnics and he treated
the people to amusements of various
kinds.
There has been "A great deal of spec
ulation as to where he got the money
which he spent so freely. 1t has not
been so very long since he was chief
of police of New York and lost the
place because charges were brought
against him of giving protection to vio-
lators of the law. He may have made
his money in that way. However that
may be, it is certain that he is not IA
vored by the men who now control
Tammany and the Democracy of the
state outside of the city have no use
for him. 1t is not believed that he
would be of benefit to the party. On
the contrary, there are good reasons
for thinking he would be a burden to
it.
1t is difficult, however, to keep men
Ike Devery down. They have a vast
amount of energy and succeed in get
tirg a following. There is no doubt
that Devery is the leader of the Dem
ocracy of the Ninth assembly district,
and it is not easy to see how the lead
ership is to be kept from him. When
denied admission to the convention. at
Saratoga yesterday he intimated that
he would make the men responsible for
keeping him out regret their action,
and there is good reason for thinking
he will

GATES AND THE L. 4 \.

According TO an interview given out
by Mr.. J. p. Morgan, respecting the
transfer of the control of the Louis
vile and Nashville to the Atlantic
Coast Line. John w. Gates did not
have at any time control of the Louis
Vile and Nashville. At the time the
control of the Louisville and Nashville
was purchased in the open market it
was the understanding that Mr.. Gates
had wrested the control of the prop
erty from the Belmonts.
The statement of Mr. Morgan shows
that Mr.. Gates purchased 2O4, 900 shares
Of the stock and that the firm of J.
p. Morgan & Co. purchased 100000
shares for cash, thus making the 306,
600 shares which, being a majority of
all the shares. gives the holder of them
the control of the property.
A fair inference from what Mr.. Nor
gan says is that Mr.. Gates acted
throughout for Mr. Morgan. 1t seems
that he carried the shares he obtained
to j. p. Morgan & Co. as soon as he
obtained them. He would hardly have
done that if he had been acting for
himself. What Mr.. Morgan says seems
to explode the idea that Mr.. Gates,
without consulting with anybody, went
into the market and began buying the
stock of the Louisville and Nashville
with the idea of gettiag control of the
property or of making a big specula-
ton in II. The whole transaction looks
like a well-laid scheme of Mr.. Morgan
to get control of the Louisville and
Nashville. Indeed, it is not improba-
BILE that it was his purpose to get the
property and turn it over to the At
lartic Coast Line at the time that the
Plant System and the Atlantic Coast
Line were merged.
In the course of his interview Mr..
Morgan confirmed what had previously
been said as to the terms of the con
solida ton of the Louisville and Nash
vile and the Atlantic Coast Line. The
price as has already been stated, which
the Atlantic Coast Line pays for the
Louisville and Nashville stock, is S150
share

Her Fish story Matched.

Something new in the line of fish sto-
ries was told at the Sportsman's Show
here this week, says the Milwaukee
Wisconsin. Many of the visitors at
the show, especially the ladies, know
a great deal about fish and fishing,
and some of their ideas are fearfully
and wonderfully constructed, so
unique, in fact, that John Mag, the
man in charge of the department. new
or volunteers d correction and only
talks fish when he is asked to. He
says it is a shame to disillusioniZe peo-
pie. A pretty bride, with her nus
band, visited the show. and the young
woman told her knowledge of fish, bas-
ing her superior fund of information
on the fact that her father was a
mighty fisherman and had once cap
tured a seventy-fve pound trout. Then
she smiled benignly on Mr. Mag,
who said in mild reply THAT was
not as good as my father did. In New
York state, when he was a young man,
he captured one which weighed 125
pounds only the word was spelled
Traut then. Here she is: she is my

husband, 81 knew that story of yours

Price Low Because of Mistake.

High prices in frontier towns was the
subject under discussion at an uptown
hotel the other day, says the New

money for trifles, and 81 a. box for sar-

He had just come back from the sea-
shore, with the usual coat of tan, the
recurrent desire for a real restful rest,
and the conventional number of sea-
shore love affairs, says the Baltimore
Herald. He met an acquaintance on
the street, and over something cool
they naturally fell to discussing up-to-
date topics.
Bad thing, this here coal strike, "
said his friend.
What coal striker" he innocently
asked.
