1.-THE Rt. Hon. Sir Josephus, n. c. B."
is the title, to which is subioined, "Our
First Lord of the Admiralty" of the
leading article in the April number of
the North American Review" This
article is from the pen of George Har
vey. editor of the Review" and the fol-
lowing quotation from Macaulay which
prefaces the article gives foretaste of
what follows: 1--WE could make shift to
live under debauchee or tyrant, but
to be ruled by busybody is more than
human nature can bear"
In Milan Cathedral one sees against
the wall the figure of man who had
been fayed, stripped of his skin. from
head to foot Metaphorically speaking
that operation has now been per-
formed on the person of the said Jo-
sephus Daniels, secretary of the navy,
by Colonel Harvey. The spectacle is
both frightful and comical. And the
operator has done the job without
malice, as kindly as possible. but with
consummate skill and thoroughness.
The article is introduced by the republi-
cation of sketch of the origin and ten
der years of Josephus, printed in the
North American" years ago, which
touching tale is as funny as anything
written by Mark Twain. Then follows
some account Of the mans earlier career
until he met William Jennings Bryan,
heard him speak, sat at his feet, "where-
upon he enlarged his vocabulary and be-
gan to think deeply" 1t may be that
Mr.. Harvey mingles legend with history
in his side-splitting account of the effect
produced upon Josephus's imagination
and ambition by attending perfor-
nance of "Pinafore." at Raleigh. This
was his cue! He thrilled with antici-
patton. Vending his way homeward
as upon the wings of a dove of peace,
he felt his own heart glow, his own
bosom heave, his own eyes flash, his

CIaim settled by Lawyer.

Comptroller Prendergast and Louis
Marshall. lawyer and member of the
constitutional convention, jabbed az
each other yesterday to the extent OF
about 5000 typewriter words, each sup
plying a statement for publication.
Mr.. Prendergast. who fred hrst ac-
cused the lawyer of having attacked the
citys financial administration before the
constitutional convention because -
per cent. OF water had been squeezed
out of a claim made by Mr.. Marshall In
behalf NJ a client
Mr.. Marshall in return said that ADJUST
ment Of the claim had been unconscious
ably delayed in the Comptroller's office.
He also accused the Comptroller OF US
ing "billingsEdte and personalities in
attacking him and indulginG "in a form
of augmentation to which the merest
pcttifoggcr would not descend"
The controversy grows out OF Mr. Mar
shalls assertion that the city's debt 10

Mr.. IIarvey's recital of the sccretary's
blunders and stupidities-the details of
the flaying operation. Our readers will
find all this part of the article album
dainty interesting and amusing. He
quotes Josephus's pride and admiration
at the words of praise for the naval
officers and sailors spoken by Hon. John
Lind, that grim Morse patriot" who,
until his return from Mexico on the
"Mayilowcr,' had never seen much Of
the navy. John Lind's praise completely
filled Josephus's heart. His cup ran
over.
In speech, at San Francisco, Jo-
sephus spoke Of Lincoln and Wilson as
the two greatest presidents this coun-
try ever had, because each went into
the editorial sanctum to secure a manag-

dinner speech. as reported by the New

he became an ardent free-slver man,
and how he came to be Il delegate to
the democratic convention at Chicago in
1896. Another man was very DESTROYS

PRENDERGAST SPLIT
Doesn't Think City Halls
Happy Fusion Family Will
Be Broken Up.
STATE TAX FIGHT GOES ON

With Mayor Mitchell and George Nc
Aneny. President of the Board OF Al
dermen. fighting the imposition of "A
direct state tax by the Whitman admin
istration while the other member of the
Big Three"--Comptroller Prendergast--
Is siding with the Governor and acquies-
Gin. In the contention that II tax OF at
leaS S12,000.000 IL unavoidable. the
heads of the more or less happy fusion
family at the city Hall are having their
first serious controversy.
The conflict over this matter Is not
n new one. however. As long ago as the
campaign OF last fall Mr.. McAneny was
backing up Gov. Glynn In his statements
that the Glynn administration had pro-
duced a surplus OF tl1.00o,O00. At the
same time Mr.. Prendergast was Indoors
ing the assertions Of Mr.. Whitman as a
candidate that the surplus largely re-
suited from Gov. Glynn's alleged at
tempt to make momentary political cap
ital by vetoing necessary appropriations
In IL statement ISSUED three weeks ago
after city accountants had examined the
States books Mr.. Prendergast aga in
defended Mr.. Whitman by saying that a
direct state tax of approximately
sls.000.O0o was needed. although Mr.
Prendergast did not accept some OF
the Governors figures. Mr.. McAneny
again took issue with the Comptroller
and II Is no secert that neither OF them
has had much respect for the others

There's simply an honest difference
Of opinion he said. ut will not mean

there Is nothing TO say. Personally,

There was no word from the Comp

On the contrary. he said

Because of Mr.. prendergast's Repub-

ton. some observers yesterday were In
Clined to guess that maybe "a dtop or
