New York, July 1.-McDougal Hawks, Commissioner of Docks and Ferries, made today a statement answering charges made by c. c. Murphy, leader of Tam many Hall and former treasurer of the Dock Board under the Van Wyck admin istration.
 Concerning MT. Murphy's allusion to the lease by the administration of pier to the Central Hudson Steamboat Com pany. referred to by MT. Murphy as Gov ernor OdeIfs Company. MT. Hawks said that the city made an excellent bar gain; that the lease was approved by the sinking fund committee and the control- lers office and that MT. Murphys figured loss to the city of $4SO,0OO is made out of whole cloth.
 "The whole story of Governor Odells relation to this matter" he adds, lis pure ina glnation and an attempt to make po- litical capital. and was thoroughly ex- ploded after most careful examination by the members of the sinking fund commit tee"
 | He adds that the city made very good bargain as shown by the fact that the rent which Is paid for that pier is at the rate of cents per square foot more than the city receives per square foot for the adjoining pier.

Game Umpire Would Not Walk with Police, One of the Manly"
 Spectators Hitting Him.

Birmingham, July 13.-In a game replete with intense excitement and the crowd continually hissing the umpire. Birming- ham batted out a victory in the ninth inning by six long consecutive hits. Um- pire Cox's decisions displeased the crowd from the start, and in the fifth inning, a seemingly bad decision put the spectators in frenzy. They poured from the bleachers and stands on the diamond and it was several minutes before the field could be cleared. Vaughan was put out of the game for kicking.
 After the game Umpire Cox would not walk with the police and one of the spectators hit him in the face. Police quickly came to the rescue, surrounding Cox. who afterwards arrived safely in the city.
 Clark was knocked from the box in the first three innings and Smith was sent in to relieve him. Only one hit was secured of Smith and he struck out nine men in the remainder of the contest Dunham weakened in thesfifth inning and Mcintyre was substituted, but he also met with reverse in the ninth.

 The Associated Press correspondent. who came overland with the government forces from Maturin. witnessed the she'll ing today of the strong trenches con- structed along the river front before Ciu- dad Bolivar by the revolutionists. It Is believed that the government troops will make landing on that side of the river upon the arrival of General Gomez. the government commander in chief, who Is expected Monday (today) with a fleet which will cooperate in general attack on the city. It Is learned through de- serters that General Gomez. before en- tering the valley of the Orinoco. defeat ed the revolutionists under General An tonic Paredes. who surrendered Puerto Cabello in 1899 and who subsequently was captured by the Liberals near Irapa. General Gomez thus secured the safety of his rear guard Notwithstanding pub lie opinion to the contrary in government circles, it Is not believed that General Rolando, who holds Ciudad Bolivar, will be able to resist the governments at tacks.

 Papers.

Cincinnati, July I3.-Recently Thomas O.. Mcbride petitioned the United States Court here for a receiver for w. J. ODelI S Co. for the purpose of a settlement.
 Mcbride claimed that he had put his money into the concern and was never able to see the books or get returns
 Today w. J. O'Dell filed his answer that Me Bride had one-eighth interest in the com pany organized in 1899 with S25 900 capital This firm failed. owing SIPS, ooo ODell claims he paid all this indebtedness within the next few years after the O'Dell Company had been incorporated O'Dell states that in May 1901, the firm lost it's capital and McBride at first did not respond to the assessment for funds. Later in that monh Mcbride offered SI,Ooo, which ODell refused Still later Mcbride was told that other arrangements had been made and that his interest in the com pany had terminated.
 The business was then conducted by O'DeL and Stapley as a co-partncrship. They paid of all the debts and McBride never, until May, 1903, claimed any interest in the bust ness Then Mcbride demanded settlement when he was told that he had not been part ner and had no interest since May 7. 1901
 The answer ayers that the corporation of the ODen Company April 6. 1903, was formed according to plans decided upon some time preyious and was not a scheme.
