And the name of Gaynor be came famous. • At thia point, enter Hearst. He sent word to Gaynor that he wanted to see him. Gaynor went to Hearst's home sad Hearst asked him to run for mayor. Then Hearst told Rudolph Block, one of his editors, to put in the Hearst pa pers anything favorable to Gaynor that Gaynor might desire. But Tammany, too, saw fine tim ber in Oaynor, the judge who had a reputation for baiting the police; Gaynor wae a fine eloak for the Tam many police system, with its cruel, grinding graft. And Gaynor accepted a Tam ma ay nomination. The republicans picked Otto Ban nsrd, a businees man. He had been such a busy Itusinesa man that bis name had never been in the papers. Every body asked. “Who is Bannard!” They found out be was rieh; that he had been the quiet head of several move ments for civic improvement and that he was the founder and president of the Provident Savings association, said to be a philanthropic institution. There upon the committee of 100, organized to have the city ran on a business basis, indorsed Bannard. But Wm. R. Hearst, in the meantime, had got mad at Gaynor for accepting the Tammany nomination. Hearst looked around for his inde pendence league, which he organized in the last presidential campaign. He couldn’t find it. Tammany, at the pri maries, had stolen it, emblem and all. And, in the name of the independence league, Tammany men nominated Tam many candidates. But the real members of the inde pendence league held a great meeting at Cooper Union and nominated Hearst. There was the biggest shouting at that meeting that the campaign had seen up to then. And Hearst accepted the nomination. That set Gaynor loose. “Treachery?” he eried. “He asked me to run. He didn’t say on what ticket. He ordered his editors to sup port me. Four years ago he wanted me to run for mayor. Does he only mtke a promise to break it!” The Hearst reply was a bomb. It came through Wm. Ivins, a Hearst supporter, in a publie speech. “The anti-raeing bill was passed June 11 of last year. The Hon. Pat rick MeCarren (Democratic boss of Brooklyn) left Albany on the after noon of the passage o/ that act and came to New York. Awaiting his ar rival at the Hoffman house, in this city were the Hon. Justice Wm. J. Gaynor and Mr. Block, I believe , (Block is Hearst’s editor), and Mr. Eugene Wood (a lobbyist against the anti-racing bill). “Gaynor, with these three men, sat Men, does your present physician satisfy you. Has he made good ali his promises to you. Has his treatment cured you, or greatly benefited you. Or has he failed, after a fair trial, to accomplish the "guaranteed" cure for which you paid him. has he returned your money? Has he dealt falrij with you? These are important questions, which every pa tient should ask himself. 1 If you are getting along all right under the treat menCyou are now taking, I say stick to your phy sician. for he is doubtless doing his best for you and may ultimately bring about the result you de sire.

The as- WM. B. HBABBT. sistant district attorney of Brooklyn, prevented the test case being brought before Gaynor, but a test case was fin ally got into Gaynor’s court Which did not relate to race track betting, but to the betting of a box of golf bulls on the links. Justice Gaynor, charged Ivins, wrote an opinion on that case which will, if it stands, insure the acquittal of all the men who have been arrested for violat ing the auti-betting law at race tracks. “He hasn't resigned from the bench yet, and he may not,” added Ivins, who. is a lawyer. “If he doesn’t he may disbar me for telling this truth, but I am willing to take the chance.” “Liar,” replied the dignified judge. Then Justice Gaynor went after Ban nard, telling a story df an important meeting in one of New York’s tender loin restaurants. “How and where was his nomina tion finally settled!” asked Gaynor. “Mr. Sugar Trust Parsons, Timothy Woodruff, in his nicest waistcont, and,., I believe, Mr. Ivins —if I dare to men tion his name —went to Jack’s and sat aronnd a table until 4 o’clock in the morning.

These are the issues now and people are forgetting all about the other big things they have raved about for two or three years—Tammany misrule, po lice graft, enormous municipal expenr ditures involving wholesale graft. “Won't you step into my parlor!” Said the spider to the fly. “Your dining room, you’d better say,'” Replied the fly. “Not I!” —Judge.

THE ARMY WILL NOT QUIT Attorney Ridgeway Has An nounced That He Will Pro ceed Just the Same. The eity council took another stop ia its fight against the erection of the Salvation Army home on River ■venue yesterday afternoon, by unani mously passing sn ordinance making it a violation of the law to erect, conduct, •wn or permit to be operated any build iag, house, home or place for the reformstioa of vagrants or for the keep or care of mich within 500 yards of any chunk, public park, school, or phans’ home or inriitution of learning of any kind. The penalty provided for it is not less than *25 nor more than *2OO, each day to constitute a separate offense and liable to the infliction of the penalty provided. That the eity council would take this step was intimated ia The Light and Gazette IqH Sunday morning, lining based upon the opinion rendered by Judge Seeligson in the Forty-fifth dis trict court relative to the mandamus proceedings instituted by the Salvation Army to compel the issuance of a per mit for the construction of the rcsene home, for which the city building in ■pector had refused to give a building permit. A clause in this opinion wax to the effect that the validity of an ordinance prohibiting the erection or maintenance of an institution of this kind would in all probability stand the teat, and that the question was not in volved in the question before*the court, this being whether the ordinance pro hibiting the erection of a rescue home in any part of the eity, without special permit from the city council, was legal. Two ordinances prohibiting the opera tion of a rescue home nesr a park, church or school were introduced yes terday. one making it illegal to conduct the institution 1 and the other providing for a penalty. This ia done in order that the former might go into , effect immediately while the latter providing the penalty must, unAr the charter, be published for 20 days in a newspaper. The ordinances were introduced by Al derman Richter and passed unanimously under the suspension of the rules. Will Reopen Fight. The passage of these ordinances will doubtless reopen the war between the eity- of San Antonio and the Salva tion Army. T. H. Ridgway, counsel for the ‘Army, has announced that he would proceed in the matter just as soon as the council passed these ordinances, which came to him as no surprise. Just what steps he will take have not yet been disclosed. At the instance of Chairman Mauer mann of the finance committee, an or dinance was introduced authorizing the to issue warrants on the city treasurer for *150,000 with which to pay a bond issue of 1887, in that amount, being 5 per cent bonds. How best to finance the city and at'the same time take care of this issue, which has given the council trouble on nu merous occasions, will form a topic of no little import at the next meeting of the council, when the ordinance comes up on its second reading. Mayor Callaghan suggested that the ordinance introduced by Chairman Mauermann be allowed to go over on its first reading, there being a serious question involved in this particular bond issue and the city's sinking fund. Two years ago the city tentatively withdrew this issue with the intention of reselling it at a lower rate of inter est, but the financial market at the time would not permit or justify such a step. _ j Mayor Callaghan in speaking on the issue made the following statement, that the councilmen may be guided in their future movements relative to the disposition of the issue: Two Per Cent Not Enough. “The state constitution permits .1 city to issue bonds provided it yearly levies enough money to pay the inter est and to place 2 per eent of the issue in the sinking fund. We have obeyed the law and have done this. But here is the trouble. Two per cent a year in twenty years will amount to but 40 per eent’of the par value of the bond and the siking fund therefore wool I not be sufficient to redeem the bonds. The bonds either should have a longer life or the city should levy more than 2 per cent annually. ♦ ‘ Consequently we have not been levy ing enough money to pay the bonds on 1 maturity as they fall due. Again, years ago, the yty treasurers have applied all the money levied for the redemption of bond issues to one general sinking fund. Consequently as each issue came due there was enough to redeem them, but part of this money belonged to issues that had not yet matured. From that prevision of the constitution which says a eity can sell bonds by levying 2 per Catarrh Cannot be Cured with LOCAL APPLICATIONS, as they cannot reach the seat of the disease.

He attributed the whole trouble to the pooling of the sinking fund, instead of each bond -s -siie having its own. separate sinking fupd. Aldermnn C. C. Smith had an ordin ance passed permitting W.
