COLER IRKS METZ AGAIN.
Comptroller Retires Behind Mosquito bars
and LenYes COm'r Hcbherd Outside.

Comptroller Metz and Borough Presi-
dent Coler of Brooklyn have found some
thing else to squabble over. The quarrel
between them this time has to do with
the site for the new headquarters Of the
Charities Department in Brooklyn. Three
sites are under consideration, one at
Schermerhorn and Nevins streets, for which
SIS. 900 is asked; another at Schermerhorn
street and Boerum place. $50, 900, and the
Brooklyn Bank building. at Fulton and
Clinton streets, price, Sis 900. Mr.. Metz
has been inclined to favor the purchase Of
this last building, fol- the reason that it could
be used at once, while the house upon
either of the other sites would nave to be
torn down. Mr.. Coler opposed the pur-
chase of the bank, and in a statement he
gave out he insinuated that Mr.. Metz was
financially interested in the Brooklyn
Bank.
That Is not So Mr.. Metz said yester-
day in reply. Il nave never been a stock
holder in the Brooklyn Bank, nor have I
even been a depositor. | think that the
site is the best that could be selected, but

QUEER PROOF or CRUELTY.
Mother and children Separated by Gerry
Society Wall for Each Other.

Mrs. Annie Wechser, % years old, OF SO
Broome street, cried, became historical
and finally tainted in the Essex Market
police court yesterday morning when her
two children were given to the Gerry society
and she was sent to the workhouse for
alleged cruelty to them.
Benjamin Wechser, the woman's hus-
band, disappeared about a year ago. Since
that time the neighbors nave complained
to the Gerry society that she was abusing
her ~three-year-old daughter Pauline and
Ida, aged 2. Agent Harrington of the
society made the complaint. and in default
of 500 the woman was committed for one
month.
When she was made to understand what
had happened she sank down on her knees
and clasped the younger child to her breast,
crying that they should not take her chill
,dren from her A policeman picked up
the child, and the mother became hysterical
Kneeling on the floor she raved like a mad
woman, until at last she fell back uncon-
scious. The policeman who had been
"endeavoring to quiet her laid her down
gently on the floor and water was brought.
When she was revived she was led away,
still crying, while the two children eobbed
in sympathy and wanted to 60 with

gone up the side OF the mountain lrst In
ehdrmlsh formation.
Some OF the foot troops doubtless 70
manned In the rear, somewhat covering the
advance OF their comrades In front by q
careful fire on any Of the hostile Moros
who ventured to put their heads over the
edge Of the crater In which they were forth
fed.
The accuracy Of the fire of the American
troops Is 80 much greater than that Of the
Filipinos that there can be no doubt that
the advance OF the sklrmishers to close
quarters was we'll covered.
Once near the top the infantry doubtless
had to wait for the field artillery. This
branch, with the light mountain rapid fire
guns, came on behind. Their ascent was
much moro difficult than that Of the in
fantry and was probably much slower.
There was probably a final assault on
the crater later on-the foot troops, In
Guiding the infantry; the dismounted cav
airy and artillery going up the side Of the
crater all at once. g,
The great loss Of life among the natives
occurred on the top of the mountain. True
to their fanatical spirit the Moros fought
long after there was any hope Of re pulsing
the assaulting forces, and it was due to this
that there was so great a loss of life.
AS an example of the feeling of the native
Moro for the American a story is told Of one
Imamil, a native Moro leader, who was
wounded seriously and captured. He was
taken in hand by an American surgeon
and placed on the operating table. He was
still rebellious and his last act in life was to
rise from the operating table and throw his
betel box, a small affair such as all tflipinos
carry, and which contained an extract and
mixture made Of betel nut, at the surgeon
who was trying to saw his life. The action
cost Imamil his life, as he was too far gone
to stand the exertion.

Charles j. Allen, physical instructor in

but denied that he had struck him. He said
that a policeman was there all the while,
who would have seen such an assault IL IL
had occurred,

TRYING 4. POLICE CHIEF.
Head OF the Orange Force Hetchellei for
Helping TO Settle n Case.

ORANGE, n. j., March 10.-The police
committee of the Common Council held an
inquiry last night that lasted until long after
midnight into certain charges made by
Mayor Shoenthal that a certain member
of the police force, admitted by Chief of
Police George p. Washer to be himself,
had used money to induce a negro woman,
Mrs. Louisa Barker Of 10 Reock street, to
withdraw a charge of assault against George
A. Heaton, son Of q man connected with the
police department.
Young Heaton with Joseph Co rby was
arrested on January q last for forcing an
entranoe to the home Of Mrs. Barker as
saulting her and then smashing the fur
niture, The woman chased the men in
her bare feet until they were caught several
blocks away by the police. The case was
dismissed by the police authorities. Mrs.
Corby testified that she had heard that Chief
Washer had given money to Mrs. Barker
and had told her not to say anything about
Mrs. Barker testified to the assault and
the destruction of the furniture. Sne said
she had been called to the police station
by Chief Washer and that while there the
chief called her husband to one side and
had given him money.
Chief Washer acknowledged that he had
received Money from Heaton to pay the
Bankers, but said 1t was for damage TO the
furniture. He could give no satisfactory
explanation as to why he had not pressed
a complaint. He simply said he did not
think Heaton was to blame for the row. The
police records were then called for. No
reason was shown in the chiefs records for
Heaton's discharge. Justice Bray's records
were imperfect. The Justice produced a
paper which he said was a correct account
of the case. He admitted that he had
written 1t just before the hearing. The
paper was ruled out.
Mrs. Mary Dech testified that Alderman
Romine had said that Mayor Shoenthal was
a statue" and was trying to break Chief
Washer. This made the Mayor angry,
and, pointing his finger at Romine, he said
he would make good and would show the
Alderman something. Mrs. Dech said that
Washer had promised Barker a job on the
police force II he would keep silent about
the case. Mrs. Barker had said hat this
promise was not kept and hence she would
make trouble for Heaton.
The hearing will be continued on Tuesday
