New Yerks S New Government.

New York Evening Post.
City Chamberlain Bruere states but
The fact when he says, not only that
this city has passed from the status of
a horrible example OF municipal gov
ernment, but also that it is new far
from being the bindmost in the ad
vance toward much better conditions
than were more than dreamed Of even
very few years ago. Mr.. Bruere him
self is one of the chief representatives
of the new spirit that has come over
our conduct of city affairs. That spirit,
which he likes 10 call ''the humanizing
of city government is not content
with negative achievements like the
abolition of graft, but works for an
efficiency in the city's business tina,
shall be a model for private business.
Nor is this efficiency to be mere
smooth running of the machine; it is to
be human in the sense that it is to
examine the tasks that the city has
undertaken, and to apply to them in
telligence as we'll as honesty. The aims
house on Blackwell's Island is not 10
be looked on at as nothing more tnan
a cog in the machinery, but it is to be
studied as an institution whose work
ing affects human being. The city's
employees are to be regarded, not as
useful workers on election day, but as
active partners in the business Of the
municipal administration, to be con-
suited as to ways and means, and even
ends. All his suggests a task as auge
as it is splendid, in the contemplation
OF which Mr.. Brueres prophecy Of
commission government for New York
appears something like an anti-climax.

SAVED BY CLOWN
American Circus Performers Were
Threatened in Mexico.

Chance made the Durley Chine, a
wallowing sugar tramp, the rescuer OF
dozen circus performers, Americans
all, whom the rusty sea rover brought
from Mexico and landed at Beard S
Erie Basin Stores, Brooklyn, recently,
says the New York World 1t was the
british flag that gave them shelter and
safe passage.
The refugees were members of Max
Welton's circus. Welton is a German.
There were forty members of the COM
pany, and the twelve wnom the Durley
Chine conveyed to safety are William
Vanderprien, " strong man. Irwin
Sacks, Mr.. and Mrs Wallace Havelock,
Max Schaeffer and Vincent Coughlin,
juggIers; Mr. and Mrs. Frank Crom-
we'll, billed as the Aerial Cromwells,' ,
trapeze ar lists, and Mr. and Mrs. Ed
ward Wilson, slack-wire performers,
and their two daughters, Anna and
Elizabeth.
In Merida, during the circus entire
engagement according to Vanderpien,
all the Americans were subjected,
whenever they ventured into the
s reefs, to insults and threats. But it
was not until the Night Of Tuesday,
April p, tat any violence was offered.
Tie tent was crowded Five jockeys
wee racing around the ring and the
band was playing. On the top tier
arose a Mexican woman, who shouted:
The gringoes mus, die
eve will never forget the riot that
followed" said the strong man. Men
and women rushed fro mtne triers into
the ring, tore the jockeys from their
noun and threatened every member
+ the company. The band stopped
playing, and tie confusion was getting
worse when tna Mexican clown with
the show leaped upon the platform
and shouted: '"There are no Americans
in the show All the performers are
Germans or Englishmen."
'.The clowns words quieted the
crowd somewhat, .and we managed to
sieze our personal baggage and 60 to
Progresso. The Cromwells had to fee
in t1eir tights, as they did not have
time to dress.
"Ia Progresso several OF the women
narrowly escaped Mexicans who had
been melted 10 violence by bulletins
posted on the walls calling for Een-
geance upon Americans. We were ad-
vised that if We did not get out in "A
hours we would be killed. So We were
glad to accept the incitation Of Capt.
Aus.y, OF the Durley Chine, to become
passengers for New York.
Of the remaining members of the
company all are believed to have TAX
en- a steamer for Mobile, with the ex-
ception of one performer Pc in
"The Three Apolos.' Two of the Apol-
os escaped, but one was missing. He
had fallen in love with a Mexican girl
and may have been hidden in a place
of safety by his sweetheart, his fellow
performers believe.

TWO COUNTIES WANT
 ID PROSECUTE ADA|R.
Walker County, However,
 Yields to Jefferson
HE KILLED WILL TUCK
Coroner Spain Emphatically Refuses to Drop Jefferson County Suit Against Deputy Sheriff of
 Walker County

Who is going to prosecute Clark Adair?
 This is the vexing question that is bothering the county authorities of Jef- ferson and Walker counties. It had been thought that the question was settled last Friday when Coroner Charles L. Spain swore out warrant before Judge I. H. Benners, charging Clark Aoalr' deputy sheriff of Walker county, with the murder of Will Tuck, farmer at West Sayre. on the afternoon of May 25. but if now appears that Walker coun- ty started prosecution of Deputy Adair.
 Yesterday morning Coroner spain re- ceived a letter from Judge J. D. Acun solicitor of the law and equity courts or Walker county. stating that following the killing of Will Tuck, Deputy Adalr hao been arrested and placed under bond. on Saturday, the 3Oth of May, he was given a preliminary trial at Dora and pound over awaiting the action Of the grand iurv on the charge of murder. He was, however. allowed bond. Under these cir cumstances Judge Acuff's letter to Cor oner Spain advised that as the Walker county prosecution had advanced so far that his warrant be made void
 The answer of Coroner Spain to Judge Acuff's letter was characteristic ana brief. He merely stated that he had sworn out a warrant against Clark Adair and turned the paper over to Sheriff Walter McAdory. He had been advised that Sheriff McAdory had mailed the warrant to Sheriff Gray of Jasper and taint Sheriff Gray was in possession of the warrant. Ihe coroner closed hts letter with the words: q fully expect Sheriff Gray to serve the warrant with all due haste and bring his prisoner to Birmingham"
 On the long distance telephone last night Judge Acuff was made aware or the attitude of Coroner Spain on the matter of the warrant and the jurfsdic- ton of counties and at once stated that he would instruct Sheriff Gray to serve Coroner Spains warrant. He stated that he would be glad to turn over the ex- pense of prosecuting Deputy Adair to Jefferson county.
 In speaking of the affair last night Judge Acuff spoke highly of Deputy Clark Adair and stated that for years he had been an excellent deputy and had good reputation.
 Will Tuck was shot and killed on the evening of May 25 at his farm about a quarter of a mile south of the Walker county line.
