SALE OF SAL CON.
Proceedings Stopped by Row Amon s
 Several Attorneys.

There was a triangular TOW in the district court this morning before Judge Cowell, between Attorneys O'Neill. Russell and Carmody. The cause was a motion by MT Carmody to rescind the order Of sale granteu last week in the suit of various cred itors against Thomas O'Donnell. whose saloon on East Main street 1t is pro- posed to sell. The sale was to have taken place to-day. MT Carmody rep resented the New England Brewing Co, whose claim against O'Donnell is $T0O: MT Russell appeared for claim of $35O for the Narragansett Brewing Co, and MT O'Neill represented $3, 600, a claim by ODonnelrs brother, John H. On the grounds that it was "A going business, Mir Carmody's motion was opposed, because the sale would bring more now than it would q week hence. and also that it costs q gooa deal to have a keeper on the premises and pay the rent, $100 month. Mir O'Neill held that the longer business is stopped there the lower will be the proceeds of the sale. The other con- tention was that the goods are not perishable and therefore cannot be in- jured by postponing the sale.
 Mir ONeill said that the Randolph & Gloves concern was sold for q mill lion dollars. simply because it was going concern Had business been suspended there for any time, as it has in the saloon involved, it would not have brought half q million.
 Judge Cowell decided to adjourn the sale to Thursday at ? o'clock, in order. to give MT Carmody time to get an injunction to stop the sale at that time, or take any other action he might see proper. The judge thought this was the best order he could make be- cause he judged no ones interests will suffer in that time.

LONDON PULLING AHEAD.
BY Anpe1ing More Territory, She Keeps
First Place Among cities.

London is the only city in the world with
a larger population than New York; and
the ratio of increase in population being
greater here than in London. II that were
the only factor to be considered, it would be
a question of time only when New York
would become the first city.
The city OF London proper, exclusive Of
suburbs, has a population Of 1892 900 and
an area OF 75,442 acres. This was by the
census of 1901. By the census Of 1900. the
population Of New York was s,437 900 and
the area 1876 600 acres.
New York, with the larger ratio Of gain
in population and the larger unoccupied
territory for expansion, had the larger
opportunity for increase into the position
of first city Of the world, But recently
the committee of the London County
Council which has been considering the
advisability Of extending the boundaries
Of London made favorable report.
When the Council came into existence,
in 1889. the outlying suburbs were small
and ,mimportant; now they are populous
communities and are entirely free from the
supervision OF municipal authority. Horn
sey and West Ham have become county
boroughs, but Tottenham, with popula-
ton OF 1902 900; Walthamstow. with e5 900.
and Legion, with 90, 600. are not.
Outside of the immediate city Of London
ia what ia known as the outer ring, with
an area of 10000 acres and az territory
the population OF London Is correspondingly
increased. So long as London continu es
to annex suburban territory to the city
IL will remain at the head of cities.

TAGGART TOOK NO MONEY WEST
And No Mission From National Committee
whose Treasury Is Low.

Chairman Taggart OF the Democratic
national committee went West yesterday.
He will be gone for a week and the explana-
ton given yesterday at headquarters for
his visit to indianapolis was that he wac
bent on going to Indiana to zee II his pres.
ence there would put sufficient life into
the campaign in Indiana to insure the car
ryinR of the State for Parker. ~
As matter Of fact, Mr.. Taggart will do
little or no political work In the West, and
II Is doubtful II he will even take the trouble
to travel on to Chicago. The report that
the heads Of the national committee have
finally decided to appropriate, in response
Of money for the campaign in Indiana
and Illinois have no foundation. Mr.. Tag
that the national committee would send
money to those two States. 1t is reported
that the treasury is low.
For the past two weeks bills which have
been presented to the treasurer with the
20. KS" of Mr.. Taggart and Mr.. Sheehan
have not been paid for several days. Callers
at the Democratic national headquarters.
who have asked for the payment OF money
due to them, are now invariably told to
call tomorrow and many complaints are
heard that the "to- morrow" usually means
three or four days at the earliest
All that Mr. Taggart is going to Indian
apolis for is to look after his local organiza-
ton. He has no mission from the national
committee, he will have no money to spend
for campaign purposes and he will be back
again in this city not later than next Tues
day.

One Mans VIE Had Been Jamm ed by Horse
Foot Police Rough in Spots. Too
People Kept Block Away From
Garden-Parades and Outdoor speaking
Many ticket holders were unable to get
into sthe Garden after o'clock There
were BOO policemen inside and outside the
Garden. under command Of inspectors
Brooks Titus and Walsh, and they kept
the crowds block away from the building.
The people that gathered on the streets
were orderly, but in some instances the
policemen treated them roughly in driving
them back mounted policeman on
the Fourth avenue side worried some of
the spectators by urging his horse upon
them. He rode the animal among the
crowd on the sidewalk.
Henry Jenkins Of 221 West l2lst street
and his wife came downtown to attend the
Madison Square Garden meeting, but there
was such jam that they could not get in,
On the way home they got mixed up in the
crowd on Fourth avenue at Twenty sixth
street, and mounted cop. who rode his
horse up on the sidewalk to make the
crowd move more quickly, ran his horse
into Mrs Jennings.
IF | had a revolver I'd shoot you for
that" yelled her husband at the cop.
Inspector Brooks heard the threat and he
ordered that Jennings be arrested.
Mounted Policeman Brace, who came near
running jennings wife down, took him to
the Tenderloin station. where he was locked
up. Mrs. Jennings protested at his ar
rest; but in the light of his superior's or
ders, Brace was afraid to withdraw the COM
plant Jennings was bailed out.
About the time OF this arrest young
man who said he was Joseph Rosenblatt,
bookkeeper living on the lower East
Side, was arrested outside the Garden for
abusing Mounted Policeman McCarty.
Rosenbiatt was locked up in the Tenderloin
station, too.
Shortly after 8 o'clock the torchlight
paraders began to march by the building
and by o O'Clock the delegations from the
various Assembly districts had united
and marched through the neighborhood
with red fire, bandss and fireworks The
Nineteenth district turned out 200 men,
Among them were 500 negroes: The men
districts marched down from The Bronx
1000 strong. Among them were the Italian
Club, the Polish Club and the Colored
Independent Club
s. Summer, who had charge of the outdoor
demonstration, said that he estimated
the paraders at $4,000 men. Judged by
Decoration Day parades this seemed to be
too high an estimate.
As the parade swung into Madison
avenue from Twenty-seventh street an
old woman stood on the corner and held
up a picture OF Parker. A policeman
chased her away.
There was speaking from nine stands
on street corners adjacent to the Garden
and about each stand a crowd collected.
began to break up. when the speaking gradu-

NOW HE rs TANNING COTTON,
Mike Crowley. Once Texas Congressman
Day LabOrer nj Galveston.

GALVESTON, Tex, Oct. 2l.-The Hon,
Mike Crowley, who represented this dis
trict in Congress for one term several years
ago, is now a cotton screwman and is earning
the regular union scale Of 81 day at jam
ming cotton, which means loading cotton
in seagoing vessels at this port.
Mr. Crowley is also the Democratic nomi-
nee in Galveston county for County Attor-
ney He is a lawyer by profession. but
he was not making living at the bar,
and when the cotton season opened recently
he went back to his old trade OF cotton
screwman, He says that 81 in hand each
day beats sitting round a dull office waiting
for client to turn up and be plucked.
Mike, as everybody calls him. is one Of
the most noted political characters in
Texas. He is a giant in physical strength.
He came to Galveston good many years
ago fresh from Ireland and forged to the
front among the dock laborers by pure
force OF physical prowess
There are always some pretty good fighters
among the men who work on the docks
but none Of them at Galveston ever COM
pared with Crowley. He soon became a
leader in labor circles Of the city. He con-
cluded that he would like to enter politics,
and announced that he was candidate
for the Legislature. 81
His candidacy was treated as a joke,
but he pulled OF his coat and lined up the
dock laborers and other workingmen. He
received the Democratic nomination and
was elected by large majority.
One term in the lower house OF the State
Legislature gave Mike taste for politics
and he decided that he would 60 up higher,
He ran for State Senator, and again, to the
surprise Of many people, he was elected
by larger vote than had ever before been
cast for a Democratic candidate in that
district.
Next he concluded that he would go 90
Congress He entered the contest for the
Democratic nomination against one OF the
most prominent party leaders OF the Gal
weston district, was nominated and elected
He had big time in Washington during
his term and was well satisfied with his two
years experience in mingling with the big
political guns at the national capital. AT
the expiration OF his Congressional term
he began the study Of law. He obtained
license to practise that profession and
opened an Office here.
Business did not flourish with him as he
thought it should and few months ago he
became a candidate for County Attorney,
Although there was strong opposition
offered TO him he was nominated by the
Democrats and his election Is assured.
Pending his election and induction into
the new Office he Ia tanning cotton. This
is about as hard manual labor as there is.

Address OF Secretary shaw.
secretary Shaw was the next speaker.
. The Democratic platform adopted at
at. Louis declares that protection Ia rob
berry OF the many to enrich the few. IN
discnssing that subject In his speech OF
acceptance Judge Parker commits himself
unaualifle dly TO revision. He then OK
presses the conviction that this can be
accomplished, to use his language, without
creating that sense OF uncertainty ana I'm
stability that has on other occasions mani
tested itself. This" he says. can De

Of the enactment OF the statute making

ment as shah be deemed sufficient TOT the
industry or business affected by such re,
vision to adjust itself to the changes ana

Judge Parker may be learned In the law,
but the two sentences ! have quoted are
quiet sufficient to prove that he is as limo,
cent as a child Of industrial conditions and
the serlsitiveness OF business.
II the tariff could be revised during the
n ight and new schedules put in operation
the next morning. the injury to business
would be very slight compared to the erect
/ OF delay. Let me illustrate. Suppose the
steel anel iron schedule should be amended
by a reduction OF rs per cent. in the present
rate. the same to go into effect in one year
Would any of you gentlemen place con-
tract for steel until you knew what infiuen ce
this reduction would have on the price OF
ssteel?s Certainly you would not. IL you
owned a steel plant, would you contract Tor
iron ore and coal until you knew how the
price Of your product would be affected
Certainly You would not. A general
reduction, in the tariff, to go into effect IN
the future. would result in total paralysis
Of business
When the tariff shall be again revised
whether II shall he by the friends or by the
foes of protection, let it be done as quickly
az possible, and without unnecessary agi-
tation, and then put in operation tmme-
diately, for in that way the minimum of harm
will ensue and no possible benefit will be
deferred
