LAFAYETTE POST.
A regular encampment of Post Lafayette was held
Wednesday evening, the 23d inst. It was worthy of
unusual mention because of several unusual events
which occurred at the meeting. It was especially
honored by the presence of the newly-elected De
partment Commander, TroadweH, Asst. Adjt.-Gen.
Wallace, Q. M. Gen. E, P. Corliss, and the new Chief
of the Signal Bureau of the United States Army,
Brig. Gen. A. W. Grcely, U. S. A., this tetter gentle
man being a member of the post. These comrades
attended especially to honor and emphasize by their
presence the conferring upon the adjutant of the
post, Major Theodore W. Grieg, teto Sixty-first N. Y.
Vote., the special medal of honor for valor, confer
red upon him by the Congress of the United States,
for capturing, in the battle of Antietam, the flag of
the Fourth Alabama Confederate Regiment.
There were many other distinguished guests
present, notably Past Commander Culvert, of U. H.
Grant Post, Brooklyn, and Brevet Brig.-Gen. T. F,
Rodenbougb, U. 8. A. {Ret.}, who had been specially
invited to present the medal. After the regular
meeting had been held, at which thirteen new
members were mustered—among whom were Brig.-
Gen. Abner Doubleday, U. S. A. (Ret), and Capt
James Regan, Ninth U. 8. Inf., a noted military
author, the medal was conferred in a brief but very
able and effective speech by Gen. Rodenbough, and
accepted by Adjutant Greig, with remarks of min
gled pride, emotion and modesty. Then came a
brief speech by the Department Commander, who
modestly said he was not a ready talker, but like
Moses, had called to his aid some very glib-tongued
officers, to whom ,he delegated the speech-making.
Two of them made brief and pleasing speeches.
Then comrade General Greely favored the post
with a very able speech, in the course of which he
referred to the conferring of the medal, to his hav
ing been present at a large club in England where
a similar medal was conferred, and also referred to
his own promotion, which he stated was a recogni
tion of democracy in its broadest sense, as he was
the first officer of the regular army to be made a
brigadier general who had enlisted as a private sol
dier. It was ths speech of the evening and highly
applauded by the comrades. After the speeches
and a general intermingling and talk all around, the
post was adjourned from labor to refreshment, and
descending to the second floor, partook of a nice
collation. The “flow of soul" was especially de
lightful, and many will remember, to their dying
day, the flavor and strength of that Lafayette Post
punch. Altogether it was one of those delightful
gatherings for which this post is celebrated.
GRANT MEMORIAL COMMITTEE.
Commander-in Chief Fairchild has issued a gen
eral order appointing the members of the body to
be known as the Grant Memorial Committee, in ac
cord ance with the action taken at the last National
Encampment. The committee is made up of one

M. Hedges. The committee is to aid in raising the
necessary funds for the proposed Grand Army
Memorial to General Grant in Washington. The
Commander-In-Chief suggests that every G. A. R.
post in the country shall assemble in some suitable

NEW YORK DISPATCH, MARCH 27. 1887.
OUR FIRE I)B?.mMT.
A VERY BAD CASE—TWO DISMIS
SALS—GOSSIP.
The Board of Fire Commissioners convened again
on Wednesday morning last with President Purroy
in the chair. There were a number of trials of de
linquents and probably one of.the worst cases of its
kind ever tried, either by this Board or any other,
since the organization of this department, was the
case of
FIREMAN JOHN KELLY,
of Hook and Lad lor Company No. 18, who was
charged—first, with using vile, insulting and inde
cent language to and assaulting Mrs. B. Rothschild,
of No. 813 Fifth street, in the presence of her daugh
ter, and also with attempting to assault a conductor
named H. L. Manners, of the Second Avenue Ele
vated Railroad Company; second, being under the
influence of liquor and using ndecent language
while in the car to Mrs. Rothschild and her daugh
ter. These offenses all occurred on Marell Sth.
Kelly pleaded not guilty to all of them.
Mrs. Rothschi.d, who was present at tho meeting
with her husband and her daughter, testified in a
very modest manner as follows : ••The firom-in who
insulted me was in uni orm. He sat next to me in
the car. He said something to me and I got up to
go to another seat. He tripped me and sat me up
on his lap. He then put his arms about me and
said i got away from him. Just
then the conductor came in and told Kelly he must
not insult the ladies in the car and Kelly said
—- When I left the car with my daughter, he
was still in it Kelly afterward came to my house
and apologized for his misconduct and said ho had
been drinking with some friends and did not know
what he wum doing at the time ho insulted me in
tho car. He was very drunk while in the car."
Conductor Gilbert L. Manners test fled : •' I was
on the same train as the accused. I saw Mrs. Roths
child in the car. After we left the Nineteenth street
station I saw several women, including Mrs. Roths
child, on their feet in the car. As I walked in the
car I saw a man with his feet up; but when he saw
me he lowered them. This man was Kelly. One of
the ladies said Kelly had insulted h»T, and used
very bad language to her. I went to Kelly and told
him he must not insult the ladies, and he told me
tJs* — . I got him out on the platform,
ana Fourteenth street station a trainman
assisted me Mut him off the car. when a police
man came and said he woulu t* 180 him.
Kelly, in his own behalf, said: an-
other fireman on the car with me. Mr& Rolhsontia
is mistaken about me being the man who
her. I went to her bouse next day, and she said
she did not know me. nor did she remember ever
having seen me before, and did not think I was the
man.”
r«rroy i »*•
itteu'iieu her, why <Jid yqu go tonerhottee?
Kelly—" Well, I heard that she had parges
against me, and went to see her to find out
the charges were. She repeated that she had never
seen me before, nor did she think I was the man.
I wanted to find out what the charges were, for it
might be bad for me to be accused of a crime which
I had not committed.”
Mrs. Rothschild recalled by the President—" Now,
madam, will you please look at this man, and tell
the Board ia he or not the man who »o grossly in
sulted you !"
Mrs. Rothschild (in tho most emphatic and de
cided manner)—"Yes, sir, th d is the man; there is
no doubt of that whatever in uiy mind.”
President Purroy (to Conductor Manners)—" Will
you, sir. also look at this man (Kelly), and see
whether he is the man whom the ladies in your car
complained of?"
Manners (in the most positive manner)—“Yes, sir,
that is the man,'*
Kelly was then unanimously dismissed from the
department.
ABSENT WITHOUT LEAVE, ETa
Fireman Peter Loorana, of Hook and Ladder
Company No. 3, was charged with having been ab.
sent without leave for two hours and twenty five
minutes; with failing to report for duty in answer
to an alarm of fire, and not going to ths fire with
his company. He pleaded guilty.
By direction of President Purroy, Secretary Jus
sen read the record of the accused, which was at
tached to the back of these charges, and from it it
appears that since be had been appointed in the de
partment he had been fined thirteen days' pay for
various violations of the department rules.
He was unanimously dismissed from the depart
ment.
DID NOT PAY JUDGMENTS.
Fireman John Levins, of Engine Company No. 29,
failed to satisfy a judgment which had been obtain
ed against him by Andrew J. Quirk, of No. 200 West
Forty-ninth street, in the eum of $18.50. He plead
ed guilty and said: “ The case has been on trial iu
the civil court, but my counsel failed to attend to
it Afterward he told me not to pay any attention
to it, as he would appeal the case.”
President Purroy—“The board will suspend sen
tence in thia case for thirty days and if the case is
not appealed in that time you will be fined.
Foreman William T. Lear, of Hook and Ladder
Company No. 4, failed to pay a judgment for $127,
due Mr. J. Curran, of No. 461 West Thirty-seventh
street. The accused agreed to pay sls per month
until the whole amount was paid up, whereas, he
bad paid sls once only. The accused pleaded guilty
and said: "This debt was incurred for the benefit
of my sister. I told her if she did not pay it 1
would. I have paid this man S3O, not sls. Since
then my father died and I had to bury him. I don’t
thinks it's right for me to pay this money, lor the
complainant has talked about mo so.*'
President Purroy—“You have not kept your
agreement., If you don't owe the money let this
man sue you. Yon will be brought here again if
you don't fulfill your agreement. Ho was then fined
two days pay.
A NEW SITE WANTED.
A letter was ordered to be sent to the Controller,
stating that it will be only a few years if the pres
ent rate of growth continues, when another com
pany must bo located between 110th and 127th
streets, an the west side of Mornings de Park, but
should the sit® now applied for at 107th street not
be obtained, that necessity will arise much sooner,
and the Board therefore felt it to be their duty to
adhere to its application for the site at 107th street
and Tenth avenue, and requests favorable action
thereon by the Commissioners of the Sinking Fund.
THE OLD SUGAR HOUSE.
A resolution was adopted thanking Mr. Anson La
mont, the owner of the old sugar house at the foot
of West 150th street, for the use of the building,
gratuitously, during the past four years, for the life
saving corps and training school.

THE VOLUNTEER FIREMEN’S ASSOCIATION.
The Volunteer Firemen’s Association held its
regular monthly meeting at Clarendon Hall, last
Friday evening. The meeting was preaided over by
the newly-elected president. Mr. Michael Crane, in
a manner that at once made it apparent to the mem
bers that he fully understood bis businesk. It was
quite a surprise to many present that he should so
readily handle so large a body, which at times, to
say the leatt, would bother the best of parliament
arians.
After the minutes were read and approved, the
reports from the Board of Directors were next
passed upon.
Mr. Edward Gilon reported, in behalf of the com
mittee on legislation, that they had a second hear
ing before the committee at Albany in regard-to the
retention of the 2 per cent, tax, wuich is collectable
from foreign fire insurance companies, for the bene
fit of the widows and orphans’ fund of exempt fire
men, and that the bill was reported to the Lower
House yesterday, extending the time for ten years
further from the 17th of April, 1888. This is indeed
an act of justice and will be borne in grateful re
membrance by lhe old firemen, not only of this
city and Brooklyn, but throughout the State at
large. Credit, however, must be given to the State
Firemen's Association for much of the hard work
that has been done, and their influence has been felt
at Albany in behalf of their brethren of this city
and Brooklyn.
It will pain the many old friends of Mr. Wm. B.
Dunley to learn of the misfortune that has befell
him. Mr. Danley will be remembered as the Fore
man of the famous Big Six Engine that laid in
Henry street. Billy joined th® department in 1859,
serving out two terms, and was regarded as a model
fireman of his day. He has met with business
reverses through over confidence in people whom
he trusted, added to which he was prostrated updn
a bed of sickness some months ago. His indomitable
pluck, however, has pulled him thus far through
his troubles, and had it not been for a few of his
old time associates, his* real condition would
not have beenknown. They have felt it to be
their duty to call upon his brother firemen, and
with that object in view they have arranged for a
testimonial benefit, to take place on the 14th of
Anril, at the London Theatre. Mr. Gus. Hill, whose
combination have the house that week, at the
urgent solicitation Of the proprietor. Mr. Donaldson,
has kindly consented to give up the house on that
date for the above purpose.
The Exempts, Veteran and Volunteer Firemen’s
Association, and tho City Club, of which latter Mr.
Dunley was so long the honored President, have
united to make the affair a success, and under tho
management of Mr. George W. Anderson, Michael
Crane, John Buckbee, Anthony Burke and Messrs.
Kelly, Donovan, Waydoll, Jacobs, Brush, Cullen,
Dalton and hundreds of others, they feel, as Mr’
John J. Blair so feelingly remarked, that in working
with a will, it will bo an affair in every way worthy
of the man whose pursa was always open to tho
unfortunate and distressed among his large circle of
acquaintances in this city.
The committee on a testimonial to be presented
to Ex-Chiaf John Decker, reported that they had
met and they recommended thateall old firemen
desiring to contribute, should leave their subscrip*
tions with the chairman. Mr. Edward Giion, or
with Secretary Wm. E. Bisuop, at headquarters. ’
Mr. Gleeson, on behalf of the Troy excursionists,
invited all those who desired to participate to en-

Tlaat; ITlre Escape.
HE STRADDLED INTO THE WRONG HOUSE. $
“I didn’t see htsface,” said Sabina Moffatt.
•' What did you see ?” asked the Court.
••Hjs legs,’* said Sabina.
It looked at the start of the caso as if the accused,
William Sheridan, would escape, if Billy’s legs were
all that could be identified.
•'State what you know about the case,” said the
Court.
“I saw somebody in the room, the logs coming
through the window, I was in bed.”
'• What story ?’*
"Second story. I had been asleep; I waked up,
I didn’t know how; I heard no noise, but looked to
the window, and saw something move. I jumped
up, and as soon as be saw me he ran down the fire
escape.”
“Ho did not live in the house ?"
" No, he had no business there."
The officer said he arrested the prisoner at two in
the morning.
Prisoner said he was at a revival meeting: left it,
and bad several drinks, got tight, lost bis way,
thought this was his own house; the door being
locked, he thought he would get ia by the fire es
cape. He was real sorry to make a mistake and dis
urb the lady, and then be arrested.
The mistake cost him six months in the peniten
tiary.
