WOODBURY. ON THE RACK
Mayor Totes for appropriation
Necessary for Investigation.

Mayor Mcclellan at the meeting yesterday of the
Board Of Estimate and Apportionment voted for
appropriation to defray the expense of investi-
eating the Street Cleaning Department.
The aldermen will be compelled either to vindi-
cate Commissioner Woodbury. OF send him to
prison" said the Mayor in commenting on the
charges that have been brought by various persons
against the Street Cleaning Department.
When asked if he intended TO convey the impress
sion that Commissioner Woodbury. was culpably
negligent, he said: Il do not. There has been a
persistent effort to create impression that
have been trying to shield Commissioner Wood
bury and smother proposed investigation of his
department The contrary is true. The charges
brought against his department very serious
Mr.. Woodbury. is entitled to a public vindication
If I thought Commissioner Woodbury. was corrupt
I would suspend him forthwith"
Commissioner Woodbury. has said over and over
again that he welcomed Investigation. The Cit-
zens Unions bureau of betterment made in
vestigaton of his department and reported that n
point Of efficiency it equal to the Warning ad-
mnistration.
1t is expected that investigation will develop
many instances of petty grating by cart drivers
and other employees of the department. Commits
sioner Woodbury. has been in Office more than four
years. and grievances of this sort have been ac-
cumulating until they look formidable when they
massed.
The investigation matter came before the Board
of Estimate yesterday in the form of a resolution
asking for an appropriation of 5000 for the pur
poses of the inquiry.
There was a short walt for President Cromwell,
unanimous vote being NEEDED for a revenue bond
appropriation. and then the Mayor said:
It seems right that the Mayor should speak on
this matter. Very serious charges have been made
against one Of my commissioners and one OF my
friends. If these charges true Commissioner
Woodbury. is certainly unit to hold office and il is
a question I'm my mind if Commissioner Woodbury.
should go to states prison. In justice 10 the
Mayor and in justice to Commissioner Woodbury.,
he should he found guilty INDICATED. I desire
TO join with the aldermen in making the investi-
cation thorough possible. l believe the al
dermen actuated only by the fairest intentions
and that the investigation IS bound to be for the
good of the city.
Alderman Grifenhagen. chairman of the sub
committee which is to conduct the investigation,
said that the committee will submit the name Of
a lawyer to Mr. Delany within a week and that the
examination of witnesses will be begun within ten
days.

SOURCE OF INNIGR4TTON.
Spain Has Not Yet Started Large
Er0duS to This COuntru.

The subject Of immigration has never been so I'M
portant one for the United States as now when
the fields, shops and mills of the country are
calling for more labor and the interesting question
is, From what shall it come? The tide OF
immigration from Northern Europe has ebbed and
Italy's sons have been coming in peaceful armies
10 our aid. But this source Of supply also will
soon fall, not only because Italy is fast becoming
depleted Of the emigratng classes but also be-
cause the kingdom is experiencing the beginning
OF an industrial progress which will afford ample
scope for all the native labor available. Spain is
the only Mediterranean country that has not vet
started a tide Of emigration TO America That the
Spaniard has not been infected seriously with the
migrating fever is shown by the fact that less
than two in every one thousand OF SPANS nhabi-
tants started for other lands in 1904 while in the
same year seven Irshmen out of every one thou
sand left their native land. and still more Italians
quit the peninsula.
In Spain the maritime provinces are the most
abundant sources of emigration, and yet the sea
coast population has increased. while that OF the
inland provinces, which contribute few emgrants
is much lower in comparison and remains station
airy. In 1904 1884 persons left Spain by sea and
l54 entered her ports. There official stats

AIR STAR CHAMBER AFFAIRS.
Democratic Women Demand to Know Execu-
tive Proceedings

The Woman's Democratic Club endeavored to
live UP Ia its name at meeting held i'm the
Hoffman House yesterday by ruling out all star
chamber proceedings in the conduct of it's bust
ness or. 10 be more exact, il reaf1rmed its de-
termination IN this regard. At a previous meet
ing # had been voted that the minutes Of the
executive should be read AT the business meet
ings Of the entire body, but yesterday Mrs Sara
J. McCafrey moved to rescnd this action. say
ing that the society had confidence in its Of
hcers, and that there was no reason why 1t
should submit TO the infection of unnecessary
minutes. The reading Of executive minutes to
the house ought to be left 10 the discretion of
the president. she added.
The business of any body belongs to it," said
Mrs. Harry Hastings, and it is not good policy
70 give any one the right to suppress minutes"
Dissatisfaction IS sure 10 result when the

there is q great deal Of dissatisfaction on this

Mrs. Smith is member Of the club execu-
tive but her opinions did not seem to be shared
by the other officers Mrs. Silas P Leveridge
suggested that the executive might have to con-
slleT matters which ought not 70 be brought be-
fore a larger body.

character Of a member were a question:"

PHYSICAL TRAINING.
Pupils of No. 6 Giue "Gym" Demon
etratiOn Before Visitors.

onstration Of physical training in the public ee-
mentary schools Of New York took place yes
terday forenoon at Public School e. S5th street
and Madison avenue. for the benefit of the
Public School Physical Training Society, which

being done in the way of gymnasium work and
classroom work for the children of the public
schools with special reference to the correct
ing of bad posture and carriage, to the practice
Of health giving movements calculated to stimu-
late the circulation, respiration, etc. and to the
training Of the motor powers to produce intel
lgent, purposeful movements. From $50 o'clock
till school was dismissed at noon the demon
stratiou went on without break. except such
as was necessary to transfer the audience from
one room TO another, for the exercises. which
began i'm the girls and boys Fairgrounds, were
continued in a number Of specimen classrooms
and came TO a conclusion in the gymnasium at
the top of the building. There were so many
visitors that for the sake of convenience they
had to be divided into two groups.
About a thousand children i'm all took part.
II is said TO have been the first time such a
demonstration has taken place in this city
