trlbuicd to the campaign fund, but not on compulsion. Their individual donations might have been as much as $7,000 or SS.OjO; rone of them had paid as much as 410,000 cr :?,). Mr. Moss had. Mr. Croker said. been deposed from the police board because he was not in sympathy with the party in power; bis- work was all rij?ht but his politics were at fault. Mr. Croker said his partner In the real-estate business was Peter F. Meyer. ho was also connected with the dock Voard. , , Mr. Moss tried to brlnar out that Judicial nales had been given to Croker's real-estate Xirm on eccount of the political influence of the witness". Mr. Croker said he knew that at the present time his firm had nearly all the Judicial sales. "So that if you have a controlling voice In the affairs of that party," aeked Mr. ;.lcj, "and secure the nomination of true men you may be sure that at least In the Real K-tate Exchange and in the firm of Meyer & Croker you will, a a true Democrat, pet yomc of that profit?" "We at !eat expected to be befriended," all Mr. Croker. "Then you are working for your own rocket?" ".All the time, the same as you are." replied the witness. "It Is to the party belongs the spolN." added Mr. Croker. "And to the boss belongs the lion's share of the plunder?" sneered Mr. Moss. "No plunder, no." said Mr. Croker. "You can call it whatever you like. Heeatrse men are loyal to us you call that plunder. When you rend your bill in for the work you are lo!ng here for the legislature you might as v. ell caM that plunder." Mr. Croker resented the use of the words "spoils" and "plunder." He saw nothing tvrong in receiving profits that came through appointees of the organization. HEAVY ASSESSMENTS. Mr. Croker was excused temporarily and "Wheeler II. Peekham. formerly president of the L'ar Association, took the witness chair. lf spoke of official and quasl-oftlclai responsibilities for corruption in Tweed's day. Of his own knowledge he could not say that Judges were assessed for political purposes, but a Judge whose name he could not name fcad told him that the amount paid by the Judges ranged all the way from J1O.00O to r,.000 each. ' Mr. Moss made and Chairman Mazet indorsed the declaration that the committee etood ready to investigate charges of corruption affecting the Republicans as well as Democrats. Ex-Judge Joseph Daly, who failed of a renomlnatlon for the Supreme Court by the regular Democracy at the last election, was then called. He said he had been notified In the early part of last year that he need rot expe-t a renomlnatlon on the ground that he had refused to make an appointment and had also refused to make a judicial order. "Who notified you," asked Mr. Mos. "The notification came from Mr. Croker, whom I see here now, and I suppose he wili rot deny it. so it is unnecessary to state who was the medium of the communication." rt plied Judge Daly. The Judicial order related to the removal of the real-estate sales from the Real Estate Exchange to Meyer's office. At first r:e thought the notification was a Jest, but he could not possibly take it seriously.

Judge Daly said he had paid $7,000 in assess ments for his two nominations by Tammany 1 1 all. Dr. O'SulUvan brought out the fact that Judge Daly was first nominated for the Venon by the Tweed admlntst ration. Judge Daly said he had never spoken to or seen Tweed in his life. Judge Daly admitted 1hat he had gone to Mr. Croker to ask that Ji (Daly) be nominated as a delegate to the institutional convention. Mr. Croker's rrply was that that was a matter belonging to the district leaders and mat ne nau nothing to do with it. WHAT PKYOR PAID. Ex-Judge Roger A- Pryor testified that he had, at Richard Croker's suggestion. contributed $10,000 to the campaign fund when he was nominated for Justice of the Supreme Court, and to this sum he had added He sent his check for $10,000 ray able to Mr. Croker, but the check had been returned to him with the request that it be made out payable to order of bearer. 3Ie had never while on the bench received any intimation from Mr. Croker as to how Tie should decide any case before him for trial. Another interesting figure on the witness Ftand this afternoon was John F. Carroll. Mr. Croker's chief lieutenant. Mr. Carroll did not prove a very easy witness, and because of his refusal to answer questions Mr. Moss suggested that he might have to have Mr. Carroll sent to prison for con tempt of court. Later he askea that Mr Carroll' refusal to answer questions be re ported to the Legislature. The cause of all this was the question as to whether Mr. arrollhad any connection with the Con solidated Ice Company or whether he had nv stock therein. It develoned during the examination that Mr. Carroll had given up a 17.1w position to accent his present posi tion In Tammany Hall, which, theoretically. Is without salary. Mr. Moss pointed out that, therefore. Mr. Carroll was without visible means of support, and was. tech nlrallv a rvaurwr The witness, however. - - - . - - - - - . i i r 7 uj 11117, wiiiie- i iiic- ramc hiiij ic ucTikd that he was receiving a salary from Ir. Croker or from Tammany Hall or from anybody In the Council he could name. "Dare you tell of the money you have re reived in the last thirty days?" asked Mr. Moss, to which Mr. Carroll replied: "I deFORECAST FOR TO-DAY.

NEW YORK, April H. The seventh grand American handicap at live pigeon shooting furnished an opportunity for Mayor "Tom" Marshall, of Kelthsburg. 111., to make a record for himself by winning the event for the second time on the "clover leaf shaped traps at Klkwood Park, New Jersey, to-day. Two years ago Mayor Mar shall won thi3 event from the twenty-eight-yard mark, after shooting off a tie with a hard field of contestants, and to-day his nerve stood him in good stead when he was pitted against some hard propositions in the final rounds on the live bird championship. Seven men were tied for first place, with twenty-four straight kills each, when the shoot was adjourned last night. When the shoot was resumed this morning the weather conditions were most favorable for the marksmen, and for a time it looked as if the seven leaders would have a long argument to establish a right to supremacy. Only a light westerly wind was blowing and the birds were splendid, not. however, from a marksman standpoint, as they evaded many of the loads of shot sent after them by some of the best shots in this country and Canada. At the beginning of the contest the seven men who tied with twenty-four straight kills were: T. A. Marshall, Keithsburg. III.; Samuel Hoffman, jr.. Atlantic, la.; Ed Hickman, Kansas City, Mo.; Jake Jackson, Austin, Tex.; Dr. J. G. Knowlton, New York; C. M. Grimm, Clear Lake, la.; George Roll. Chicago. This morning Hick man lost his twenty-fifth bird, leaving six men in the race. In the shot off, "miss and out," both Hoffman and Roll failed io score. Jackson and Knowlton each missed his sixth bird and Marshall and Grimm had the contest to themselves. They shot a hot race, each killing straight until the thirty third round. Grimm missed a high-flying iu-comer, while Marshall killed his thirty third, which left the mayor of Keithsburg a two-time winner of the grand American handicap. The six men who were tied at the end of the twenty-five birds this morning, and who shot the miss-and-out match, prior to beginning the latter contest agreed to divide first money, and each, as a consequence, received llto. Marshall, by winning with a clean score, gets the silver cup, emblematic of the championship, which was presented' by the Interstate Association. Summary: Miss and Out Marshall, :; Grimm, 32; Jackson. 5; Knowlton, 5; Hoffman. 0; Roll, 0. Twenty-four men divided second money, with twenty-four klls, receiving HOG each. Forty-nine men tied for third money, with twentj'-three kills, each receiving $Ct. Carta Knocked Out by MeFndden. NEW YORK, April H.-Joseph Gans, the veteran Baltimore lightweight, went down befcre George McFadden, of New York, in the twenty-third round of their fight at the new Broadway Athletic Club to-night. Gans was not completely knocked out, but fell from exhaustion and was unable to gain his feet after he dropped. It made a rattling good tight to watch, and 5,uUv) spectators cheered the winner on to victory. McFadden gave the most remarkable exhibition of blocking ever seen in a local ring. The men signed to fight at 133 pounds, but McFadden was five pounds under the mark. Billy Needham. of St. Paul, and Sam Bolen, of New York, met in the preliminary and tought ten hot rounds to a draw.

RULINGS AGAINST QUAY

CASHIER IIOPKIXS'S RED ROOIC IS STILL. IX KVIDEXC'E. The Prosecution Score Some Strong Point AKitlntit the Ex-Senator An Expert Accountant's Testimony. PHILADELPHIA. April ll.-Perslstent. keen and brilliant argument between res trict Attorney Rothermel on the one side, Messrs. Watson, Shapley and Shields on the other, on the admission of testimony which may go a long way to establish the alleged guilt of ex-United States Senator Quay, was the feature of to-day's trial of that dis tinguished defendant, and it culminated in a decided victory for the prosecution. The red book found in Cashier Hopkins's desk after his suicide and upon the admission of which the commonwealth so largely rests Its case was the shaft the district attorney aimed at the defense. To pave the way for final effort to introduce the book itself he succeeded, after frequent clashes with the opposing counsel, sometimes bitter and personal, in presenting expert testimony to prove that the book was necessarily a book of the bank, as accounts in the books ad mitted under the court's ruling would be made intelligible by the red book. Before starting his examination Mr. Rothermel read to the court a statement of what he interned to prove. The expert, he said, had made a thorough examination of all the books In the case. He found that previous to April 30, 1S01, the People's Rank paid Interest on tho state deposit to the state treasurer and that records of such payments were kept In a regular way on the books of the bank. After April 30, im. when Mr. Hopkins appeared on the scene, a new system was adopted. This entailed th addition of another book now known as th red book to the books heretofore kept Y the bank. Meier Goldsmith, an expert account?t. was the witness on which the comrrnwealth depended to accomplish its cor?ntlon. During the whole course of thf expert's examination, objection after ,jfetlon was made by the defense and r frequently overruled by Judge Blddle.whlle the district attorney drew from the Itness his conclusions as to the book, base(UPn a comparison which was written on 3 pages with what appeared in the othe books. After It waB all over, four hours " examination and cross-examination, Jrspersed with argument, this much was sorn to by the witness; two accounts out opwrd of one thousand In the regular bo;s were incomplete and inaccurate, unlf explained by entries In the red .book.

The people of New York view with suspicion Tammany's latest efforts to bestow a boon upon them In the shape of municipal ownership of gas. When Tammany advertises that It Is going to bestow a boon upon the community it is time for conservative people to lock their doors and stay in the house nights. Tammany's benefactions, If persisted In. would ruin the wealthiest city in the world and bring Its honest inhabitants to beggary. The charge is made that the move for municipal gas. started in the Democratic Club, of which "Boss" Croker Is dictator. Is a mere stock-Jobbing schema set on foot to depress the price of existing gas securities. This charge is probably true, as the Democratic Club is a hotbed" for stock gambling at the present time, and more schemes are hatched thre to rig the market than on Wall street. New York will believe In cheap gas when it gets it. Our Street-Hallway Franchise. Philadelphia Press.

Body of Mrs. A. II. Ly!e Found Spuyten Duyvil Creek. In NEW YORK, April 14. The body of a woman, believed to be Mrs. A. B. Lylcs, of Columbus. O.. was found In Spuyten Duyvil creek to-day. It had not been long in the water. The only article found upon the body by which the woman could be Identified waa a key in one of the pockets of her bkirt. marked "St. Denis Hotel, No. 317." Room 317, at the St. Denis, was occupied, until this morning, by Mrs. Lyles. She arrived at the hotel last Sunday, and Thursday she sent down to the ollice for the room -:ierk, to whom she said her purse, containing more than $200. had been stolen from her on Sixth avenue. The room c'.crk advanced her money enough to communicate with her friends in Columbus. She was last seen in one of the hotel corridors Thursday afternoon, but the bed in her room showed that she had occupied it that night. The clerks at the hotel said that the description given by the police of the body ntted Mrs. Lvles. A search to-night of the rooms she occupied revealed nothing to throw light on the case.

About 170 men are searching for the missing man. The injured have been taken to Everett. It is expected to have the track cleared in twelve hours. DISCOVKKKD BY A WOMAX. .New Star of the Fifth Magnitude Loented ly MUa Firming. Washington Special. Miss Fleming, a young lady assistant In the astronomical observatory at Harvard, has recently discovered a new star of the lift h magnitude in the constellation of Sagittariusthe Archer. It was either Invisible or overlooked by everybody before. I believe this is the most important astronomical discovery ever made by a woman, although Miss Maria Mitchell, who was a professor at Vassar College, contributed a great deal to the world's knowledge. Miss Fleming Is employed to measure, compare and put together the photographs of the heavens that hav been taken during the last twelve years by a syndicate of observatories in Europe, the 'United States, Russia. Japan, India. Australia, the Argentine Republic and Peru. The leading astronomers entered into an agreement by which they divided up the work, and each ha been making photographs of his share. hen they are completed they will be put together for an lnrnational map of the entire heavens. Miss Fleming has charge of this work at Cambridge, and her sharp eyes recently picked up a new Ftar in a photograph of the constellation of Sagittarius that was taken only last August. It is not marked on any of the charts and does not appear in any of the photographs previously taken, but its position has since been verified and the new heavenly being has been catalogued. A duty similar to that of Miss Fleming has been intrusted to another American girl by the astronomers of France. Her name Is Miss Dorothy Klumpke. She was born in California, and after graduating from the Stanford University with two of her sisters, Vvho are also extremely talented, she took a course In the university at Paris. One of her sisters took a degree In law, while she took a doctor's degree in astronomy and mathematics the only woman who ever won so high an honor in scholarship at the Paris university. Her graduating thesis was on "The Mathematical Theory of the Rings of Saturn," which gave her so great a reputation that she was Invited to take a position as assistant in the national observatory at Paris, where she has been promoted until she is now chief of the division in charge of the international photographic chart of the heavens. There are several other women astronomers who promise to win reputations. One is Miss Charlotte A. Scott, of Bryn Mawr College. Miss Whitney, at Vassar. has also a high standing, and Miss Mary Byrd has already won an enviable reputation by writing a "Laboratory Manual of Astronomy." One of the chief computers employed upon the Nautical almanac at the naval observatory at Washington Is Mrs. Brown Davis. She has been engaged upon this work for more than ten years and has remarkable talent as a mathematician. I asked Prof. Simon Newcomb. of Washington, the other day, if women were accurate in the higher mathematics. "Yes." he replied, "they are quite as accurate and exact and as conscientious as men." Eighteen observatories undertook the work of cataloguing and photographing all the visible stars. Only Peru. Brazil and the Argentine Republic have failed to complete their engagements. The map. when finished, will show about twenty million stars. 1IKLD VP LORD HO T1ISC11 1 LI). How General Kitchener Blade the Danker Contribute to n Fund. London Letter in Philadelphia Inquirer. "When Kitchener was starting his list for the half million dollars he demanded for the Gordon College, he was advised that the lirst step be could take was to attend a lunch in the city which Lord Rothschild would give. The lunch was duly ordered; the guests were met; the table set. In the middle there was an awkward pause. Lord Rothschild was observed to leave Lord Kitchener after a short conversation, and as Ixrd Rothschild's face was somewhat Hushed and his eye shone brightly it waa easily seen that the great banker was not pleased. And he wasn't. "For what had happened was this: Lord Kitchener, with that shrewd sense he has especially where money is concerned saw that the amount of the subscriptions ot others would largelv depend on the amount with which Lord Rothschild would start the list. He llxed that amount in his own mind at J2T.X0O. When Ird Rothschild came up to him Lord Kitchener asked with characteristic bluntne-ss what amount he wished to subscribe. 'Five thousand dollars,' replied Lord Rothschild, a little taken aback. I want J-'.V..' said Kitchener; md, nneover, unless I get It. I shan't May to lunch.' Lord Rothschild is generous the ne'osity of the family is as well KnoAn, inlee l. as its wealth but a stand-and-lellver nssage of this kind was sjmthing more titan even the most generous of in-n wculd like. And that was why Lord Ucthschill looked angry. "The news spread through the room; surprise and horror were on every face, and several of the distinguished guests went up to Kitchiner to remonstrate. Woiseiey at the had. They might as well have talked to tho Egyptian Sphinx. 'Twenty-five thousand dollars or I go!' said Kitchener. He trot the fc.'JUU with the result he had anticipated four other multimillionaires had to follow Lord Rothcblld's example, and when the lunch was over the subscription for th Gordon College was well started wiih Sl2r It is Kitchener over all. His love pf money not for himself, be it understood, but for his cause, is so consuming that he is said to take a positive pleasure In 'doing' a rr.an if he can thereby save the exchequer and reduce expenses. And h is Just as merciless with the bodies and souls as with the pockets of men. As he is useful or useless to the great work, so is a man regarded by Kitchener. He has no favorites' any more than he has animosities. An officer gets ill; at once he is sent back. Years of service, enthusiasm In the cause, bravery, skill, all in vain; he is a useless mouth, and back he goes'. This is the kind of a leader to succeed, but not the kind of nne to be loved. And Kitchener is not loved." I.nt dinner. Kansas City Journal. The dollar Jefferson dinner is nil right. Iet the free-silver Iemocracy eat, drink and be merry, for next year it dies. Tlie Man Clionm.
