KANE AND HIS MARES NEST.

fNOUNCILMAN KANE, Democrat of the Fourth ward
~ does not show up well in his steamboat wharf
graft charges. He should have been surer of his
ground or refraned from making such serious
accusations he did a week ago on the floor of
City Council. AS it is. he appears ridiculous in the
eyes OF the people Of city He finds himself stand
ing in the midst OF the wreckage OF the mares-nest
that he built in the hope that would bring the Re-
publican majority in Council into discredit He said
that the steamboat company promoter. Thompson
had offered the brbe and that he would not dare to
return to this city II is significant fact that when
the Councmen met in committee Of the whole on We'd
nesday night Thompson was there and Kane found It
convenient to be absent
Thompson admitted that he had proffered money
but said it merely a evidence OF his good faith
in bidding for the wharf on the Christiana To show
that he meant business he said he willing TO turn
several hundred dollars Council to be paid into
the city treasury advance rent for the property At
time he said, did he think OF attempting to bribe
any member Of Council
Council also was informed that he had rented
wharf Market bridge and that for the pres
ent at least he would need the cty-owned wharf for
which he had been negotiating and which he would have
leased had it not been for the delay Councimanc
ton caused by Kane's unfounded accusations
It win be seen, therefore that the net result OF
Kanes work is that the city loses s1Oo month wharf
age and that certain are placed under suspicion
He should make good his charges withdraw them
-an6 apologize for what he has done.
