Coming to the time Williams had charge of the Eighth precinct, Mr. (ioff asked the witness if there were any houses of ill-fame there. "I found them there," lie replied. "And yi»u left them there?" •*Ves because they were fashionable at that time," was Williams' extraordinary reply.

Mr. i»o1T grot the inspector say that he would not give the name of the proprietor of a house of ill-fame to the committee in 1874 because ho considered the committee was not an honest one.

You said before that committee that houses of ill-fame do not injure children going to school?" "Yes." "Have you the audacity to sit-there DOW and say so?" "Yes, sir."

Witness denied charges made against him ot brutality. Me also denied that any .panel-house robberies had occurred in the eighth precinct.

The witness said he had never told lies about respectable men. He bore a reputation for clubbing, but did not think In deserved it. "Did you say at lunch the day after a meeting of starving people in I'nion square this year that they were a lot of howlers, and all you had to do was to'showyour pistol and disperse them?" "1 never said such a thing."

Contrail iet A 11JIUM-II.

Being further questioned Williams admitted that he had heard of a panel house in the eighth precinct. He had sworn at tho morning session that there were no panel houses there, and on having his attention called 'to this fact, said: '*A man mav be mistaken." "Now, wi-re you swearing' to what was true, or what, was false, when you said you had not heard of a panel house in that precinct?" "I swore to what 1 re-.-olieeted at the time." "Now, want a categorical answer to my question." "I can't answer your question." "Hut yon must answer it. 1 appeal to the committee. 'You can answer that quest-lont"• Baid Chairman Lcxow. "My answer was false at that time. Do you want my explanation now?"

A number of robberies wiucti «ergt. Grow had testified had occurred in the Eighth precinct were called to the inspector's attention. He declared he could not remember that the sergeant had reported them to him. He acknowledged that it was his duty to suppress these houses, ami declared that he had done his best to close them. His failure to do so did not necessarily prove that he was either incompetent or negligent.

The examination of the inspector was then suspended to allow Louis S. Street to be sworn. He said lie was indicted on June 20. lSSt, for a felony in connection with "green goods." There were two indictments against him. He declared he had never been in the '"green goods" business.

The witness then explained that a man by the name of Edward Keekthold rented an office from him at No. 60 Heekman street. "Anthony CoroBtock," said he, "came to my otHce a month after and asked me to tell the name of the man who rented the office. I refused to tell was brought to the Tombs and held in 85.000 bail for making 'green goods.'" The witness further said that licekthold gave his wife S5.000 as bail for him. The bail was finally reduced to $2,000 ami Street, was released from the Tombs.

This testimony created a sensation in the court. "Now, are you sure you paid this money to Anthony Comstoclt?" "1 swear before Uod and man I paid him 81,000 to hive the indictments dismissed and to secure m.v liberty."

Mr. (ioff offered in evidence the two original indictments which had boor dismissed as the indorsement showed. 'How does tliis relate to our inquiry?" a^ked Chairman Lexiivv. "It is very material,' replied Mr. UoiV, "as 1 shall proceed to show." lie showed that the indictments had been dismissed on September 30, 1SOO, by Recorder Smyth, whose initials were signed on the recommendation ot the district attorney.

l'he ..subject of placing1 these three societies under tne ban nan been under discussion in this country (or several years, but no conclusion had been reached until now. because the societies had among" their defenders many archbishops, who by their efforts at the annual nieetinfr, held in ISO'-i, effected a compromise. It wan decided to examine their constitution and rituals before deciding whether these societies should be condemned. At the meeting In Chieayo of the archbishops in IS').'!. the objects and methods of the societies were discuBsed and the verdict in favor of tluiir condemnation was unanimous. It was decided that they should be included with the secret societies, either affiliating directly with the masons or following: their methods, and as such they were inimical to the Roman Catholic church. This decision was forwarded to the college of cardinals, at Home, where a committee was appointed to act upon it.

Under tha Ban.

After a lonf and exhaustive exam ination this committee ratified tho decision of tho archbishops and Pope Leo XIII. has now given the edict his official .sanction. This decision was sent by Cardiual Rampolll, secretary of the college of cardinals, to Mgr. .Satolli. with instructions to promulgate it to the priests of the United States

Clerg-y lleticent.

The clergymen throughout the country will not discuss the probable effect of the edict atraiust these societies on their Catholic members, because, as a hijrh ecclesiastical authority of this city states, it is a delicate subject to discuss and there are special reasons why they should refrain from saying anything more than that the societies were condemned because the archbishop- evidently held that they were antagonistic to the church.
