combination complete power over the
government of the city
The best remembered of the rings
requests to the city of New York is
the county courthouse. This had been
designed to cost S25O,OOO. At a sim
gle sitting of the board of special
audit in May, 1870, orders were made
out for $6,312,5OO to be spent in the
building work. BY the end of the
following year the money spent on the
building was Variously estimated at
from SS,OOO,OOO to $13,OOO,OOO, and it
was still unfinished.
Some of the methods which the ring
was said to use for making money
were a levy of from sixty-fve to
eighty-five per cent. on supplies, the
exploitation Of public improvements,
the appropriation of money for fic-
titious institutions, such as hospitals
and dispensaries; the issue of stocks
and bonds which the controller did not
allow to appear in his statements.
In the fall of 1870, Thomas A. Led
with headed a reform ticket against
Hall for mayor but was beaten. That
winter Tweed gave $1,000 each to the
aldermen to buy coal for the poor and
gave $4,000 to the poor of his own
ward. Early in 1871, Tweed and his
ring, with the assistance of prominent
business and financial men, put
through the viaduct railroad bill, Civ.
ing the ring practically a franchise
to put a railroad on or above the
ground in any city street. The bill
was passed and signed but the scheme
was frustrated by the general expos.
ure which followed soon after.
The revelations and consequent
downfall Of the ring came in that
same year. Matthew j, O'Rourke had
succeeded to the place of county book,
keeper early in the year, and in the
summer he made public some of the
things he had found out from the
books. When Tweed was questioned
about the charges he made the reply
What are you going to do about it,"
A committee of seventy was formed
at a mass-meeting in Cooper Union,
and as they were about to act came
the announcement of the theft" OF
$500 vouchers from the controllers Of
flee. The charred fragments of these
were found afterward in the attic of
the City Hall. Controller Connolly re-
signed after appointing Andrew H.
Green as his deputy with full power,

ed and subsequently resigned. Sweeny
who was president of the park de-
partment, resigned after the election
in November and went to Canada. He
later returned to face a civil suit
brought against him Fby the city. This
suit he settled for 100000, and went
to Paris. Two indictments we're re.
turned against him, but the district
attorney did not prosecute either of
them. He remained in Paris twelve
years and then returned to this coun-
try, but he attempted to take no fur
Their part in politics. Tweed died in
the Ludlow street Jail in April, 1873.
AS to the amount of money of which
the ring defrauded the city in the
three and a half years it was in COM
plete power, the auditor employed by
Andrew H. Green for the purpose esti-
mated the amount at from $45,000,000
to S50,OO0,O0O. The special alder
manic committee was of the impress
sion that it was nearer S60,000,000,
and Mr.. O'Rourke, who made the ex-
posture, made his estimate $75,OO0,00O.

A VISIT TO GAY COMFY ISLAND.

to another, perchance partake of beer
that has every imaginable quality of
coal oil except the combustible prop
erty, and go through all the rest of
the program of the low-brows for
whom Coney Island really was in
tended; and all the time we are con-
scious that we are wearing a wan
smile which is meant to convince the
persons we are with that we are ex-
tracing pleasure from this tommy
rottish sort of thing; and our only
comfort for thus seeking to portray
an obviously untrue part is that the
rest of EN- are wearing identically the
same kind of wan, gray, deceptive
grins.
Generally, on the day we go to
Coney Island, the day is so inexpres-
sibly gummy and sticky that we find it
difficult to resist the temptation to
take a sea bath and always we keenly
regret yielding to that temptation.
In the first place, when you go in
bathing at Coney Island you don't get
an ocean bath, because Coney isn't
on the ocean at all, contrary to the i'm
preston which folks who haven't
visited the place generally possess.
Coney Island is located on the other
end of New York bay, and there isn't
anything surfy oceany or in the least
Atlantic-City-ish about bath in that
kind of water. The little measley
wavelets lap up softly and with a sort
of brakish mildness on the pebbly
beach; there isn't any roarN of break
ers; there's no surf line, and you
don't get any view of the fine large
combers breaking out where the shall
lows begin. And in the second place,
the water is excessively and annoy
ingly dirty, for the very obvious rea-
son that the garbage scows dump
themselves, or are dumped, at a point
not more than a mile or so from the
Coney strand, with the result that that
strand almost always, when the tide
is setting in, is bejeweled with a far
from interesting layout of water
melon rinds and portions of passe
cabbages and CASTOR particles of unin-
teresting-lookiing cooked meat and
other things of that sort that do not
furnish the least temptation to one to
lave himself in the brackish brine.
Additionally, it takes the merest
cursory glance at the throngs of per-
sons diked out in bathing suits on the
Coney strand to make even a person
who does not profess himself a dis

TRENTON, IN. J), Sept. 19.-That
New Jersey has within it's borders an
establishment engaged in the business

was officially brought to the attention
of the state board of health at its
meeting today.
The board referred the case to At

to take such action as the circum
stances would warrant The federal
authorities had succeeded in collect.
ing evidence which satisfied them that
the Schwarz Bros company of Kear.
ney had been carrying on an illicit
business in horse flesh. According to
the evidence obtained, dead horses
were cut up for food on the same floor
occupied by animals which had gland
ers and other diseases communicable
to mankind.
The government, it is said, has found
that some of the picked horse meat
exported to Holland is returned to
this country as imported frankfurters.

the necessity of testing seed corn
more extreme than ever. according

he has found large per cent of the
corn he has examined to be at least
partially frozen and cautions the
farmers to make efficient tests be.

Because OF the good weather dur.
ing the fall, many Iowa farmers are
of the opinion that the corn will make
excellent Seed" said Professor Hold
en-. They will be mistaken in this,
however, for much of the corn is
frosted. Corn that is badly frozen
can easily be detected by the dark
color. Partially frozen ears can not
be detected except by testing and it
is with them that the farmer is IL
able to experience considerable trou-
BILE. All seed corn this year should
be tested II the best results are to
be obtained. also wish to caution
the Iowa farmer against the use OF
moldy corn for seed. One ear OF
moldy corn might spoil a whole bush
