Pound Fishing Bill Fails.

Assemblyman L~ehebach's bill to re-
strict pound fishing in the Raritan and
SANDY Hook bays was defeated in the
House. at Trenton, by a vote Of eleven
to thirty-two. Mr.. Lehebach made a
vigorous plea for the measure, on the
ground that the waters Of the State are
rapidly being depleted of food fish by
net fishing during the spawning sea-
son. MI. Swackhamer, the Democratic
representative from Somerset, attacked
the bill. and said he had been informed
that it would destroy an industry In
which $1,OO0,O0O was invested. Mr..
Scovel and Mr.. Leverage also spoke
against 1t.

BRONX CTS NEUTRAL,
They Won't Indorse Candidate for Senator
In the 21d.

The leaders Of the Citizens Union in The
Bronx, at a conference on Saturday, de-
cided to keep their hands of the Senatorial
fight in the Twenty-second district which
is composed Of Westchester county and
part Of The Bronx.
Strong pressure was brought to bear on
them by ex-Congressman William l.. Ward
the Republican leader in Westminster, to
have the fusionsts place the name Of
Francis M. Carpenter of Mount Kisco, the
Republican nominee for Senator, on their
ticket. The friends of William Temple Emmett
of New Rochelle, the Democratic nominee,
insisted with equal force that his name
should go on the fusion ballot
The result was that the Citizens Union
leaders decided to leave both candidates
of their ticket
Although they are keeping out OF the
Senate fight it is understood that the Citi-
zens' Union will permit the name Of Assem-
blyman j. Mayhem Wainwright of the Sec
ond Westchester district. composed Of
Westminster and the Annexed District, to
be placed on their ticket. The fusionists
are satisfied with the record he has
made in the Legislature and have sup
ported him for two years.

siOner. According TO Tammany Talk,
II Mcclellan Nins-COmptroller Elk.
pected to Speak in the Very Wigwam.
Having gone into Tammany Comp
troller Grout promises to become the most
aggressive Of the Wigwams orators in this
campaign. Col Mcclellan is to speak on
Wednesday night at the ratification meet
ing at Tammany Hall and the Comptroller
probably will be heard the same night.
All his bitterness has been stirred by the
developments which left him on the Tam
many ticket alone, his friends say, and he
will make the most Of the information
which came to his hand as Comptroller.
One subject on which Mr.. Circuit may be
expected to touch interestingly will be the
conduct Of the Police Department under
Commissioner Greene. He hit Commits
sioner Greene a few months ago when
he gave out extracts from the expense ac-
counts Of the Headquarters men for wine,
women and waiting maids, in their efforts
to get evidence against certain houses. but
the Comptroller intimated at that time
that he was Withholding something.
One New York newspaper has for some
time daily asked Col. Mcclellan II. in the
event of his election he would retain Com
missioner Greene. Col. Mcclellan has not
made a direct answer to the question. If
any one should interrupt Comptroller Grout
in speech and ask him what his attitude
will be the Comptroller will make direct
reply and will then state his reasons.
He may tell the audience that he thinks
the charges made against Commissioner
Greene in the actions brought by the stock
holders of the Asphalt Trust were sufficient
to warrant his suspension at the time, but
he is prepared to go beyond that, his friends
say, and tell what he thinks has been faulty
and improper in Commissioner Greene
management Of the police force.
In connection with the campaign talk
about the Police Department. it was said in
Tammany circles last night that John l..
Oakley expected to be Police Commissioner
if Tammany should win Mr.. Oakley was
told by Leader Murphy that he could not
have the coveted nomination for Sherlf.
for which he had been a candidate ever
since his defeat in 1901 by Sheriff O'Brien.
Mr.. Oakley spent barrel Of money IN that
campaign and his friends naturally looked
to Tammany to do something for him IN
the season of Tammany victory. when
the Shrievalty was denied him he Yves pac!-
fled, so the Tammany men say. by the
promise that he would be made Police
Commissioner. Mr.. Oakley is the leader Of
his district and has large personal follow
ing.
Col. McClellan's headquarters in the
Bartholdi Hotel are to be opened this MORN

PREACHER ASSATLS CIRCUIT.
The Rev. Robert Macdonald DenOmces
the Comptroller as Moral Hopper.

The Rev. Robert Macdonald, pastor Of
the Washington Avenue Baptist Church,
Brooklyn, preached last night on the sub
,ect "The Political Conscience as Reflected
in the F,lsion-Ta mmany Mx-up.' He
used as his text Acts, xiii. L. "Men and
brethren, have lived in ell good conscience
before God until this day" This is part Of
what he said about Grout:
The political situation affords an admirable
opportunity for tho consideration of the
political conscience. 1t is an astounding
spectacle, that of an officer OF our city. who
for two years discharged faithfully his duty
and so pleased his supporters that his re-
nomination was practically assured and he
was secure of success in the election, The
astounding spectacle is that he accepted
the nomination also from a party whose
motives he has dstrusted all his life and
whose principles he has assaled.
His reward Is reputation of party and .
strangely. anathemas from his new choice
and public opinion seems to be that 1t will
be political oblivion for him whether he is
successful or not
How shall we estimate him in the terms
Of manhood? Because every political aues-
ton Ia in the first instance question of man.

The greatest criminal never did anything
