Like Any Old Iron.
ESKIMOS ARRIVED WITH IT
This Is not \Veuther for the In-
habitants of the North, and They
“’ear Their Summer Clothes of
Seal and Bear Skins.
Brooklyn, Oct. 1.—The steamship
Hope, from the Arctic regions,'is on
view at the East River dock, near the
big bridge. She was docked yesterday
afternoon, and one of the first persons
to board her was Lieut. Peary. The
Hope brought with her a meteorite
weighing 100 tons.
The Hope reached her pier at the
foot of Dock street and made fast
shortly after 2 o’clock. The first men
aboard were Lieut. Peary, one of his
companions on a former expedition,
and a customs Officer. The black hull
of the curious ship was watched by
crowds from the passing ferryboats
and from the bridge, almost overhead.
The six Eskimos exhibited a row of
round, red, perspiring faces as they
leaned over the ship’s side. All wore
the Summer garments of their coun-
try. Their coats were of yellow and
LIEUT. PE ARY.
gray hair sealskin. Their knicker-
bockers were made of the long white
Eur of the polar bear, _with plain
leather leggings. Four Eskimo dogs,
warm and panting, stretched them-
selves on the deck.
As the first visitors made their way
aboard interest centred in the great
meteorite stored amidships. The hatch-
Way was open, and after the covering
of sailcloth was off, the mass of steel
was eagerly inspected. It was shaped
like a saddle, hanging over a great
central beam, and reaching out to
other braces fore and aft.
Like a. Beaten Kettle.
The surface was like the black beaten
Iron of an Old rusty kettle, but
scratches showed the color of the
steel beneath.
When the Hope goes to the Navy
Yard on Saturday the meteorite will be
lifted out by jack screws and lowered
0y an inclined plane, just as it was put
in place at‘ Cape York, Greenland. It
will probably be disposed of to one of
the museums, but whether the
Smithsonian or one of this city or Chi-
:ago will take it is not yet determined,
Lieut. Peary said .that the six Eski-
rnos were here to arrange a collection
of relics of their tribe, gathered in his
last three expeditions, and would re-
turn to the north in the Spring. ,
“Cape Sabine,” said Lieut. Peary, “is
It latitude 78.44.11, our farthest point
north. It is=the key to the sound be—
yond, and in the last six years I have
studied the local conditions there with
l view to entering the sound at favor-
ible seasons, when wind and tide hold
)ff the ice that infringes there. I was
:he first man to step into Camp Clay
since Greely left it. We were there on
Aug. 24. This was my seventh expedi~
tion.”
INTER-STATE BREACH OF PROMISE.
Loved in One, Engaged in Another,
and Married in Connecticut.
Scranton, Oct. 1.—Miss Laura Thomp-
son, daughter of Charles A. Thomp-
son, contractor and builder in New
York City, has commenced breach of
oromise proceedings in the Lacka-
.vanna County courts against Dr. Will-
am Donald H. Namar, a practicing
physician in this city. She asks
iamages in $5,000.
Miss Thompson, in her declaration,
says she became acquainted, with ,Dr.
Namar in March, 1895, when she was 22
rears old, and that in July following
in engagement of marriage was
entered into between them. This en-
gagement was publicly announced to
friends of both, and there was an ex-
:hange of photographs and presents.
l‘he defendant, she alleges, also bor—
rowed sums Of money from her at vari-
ous times, assuring her he was expect—
;ng large sums to fall to him through
nheritance in time from wealthy rela-
lives.
In the Fall of 1896 she says Namar
:eft New York, going to Hartford, Ct.,
.till c:’.:~:tinuing in letters his fidelity to
er, but in January last she learned
‘ rom him that he was paying atten-
ions to another, Miss Sadie Elder, and
espite her protests that he should
eep his engagement with her, married
Iiss Elder.

TAM MANY’S‘ CAN DI DATES.
Judge Van Wyck Will Be the Tiger's
Standard Bearer.
New York, Oct. L—At the convention
of Tammany Hall Democracy last
night, Judge Van 'Wyck was nomi-
nated for Mayor of Greater New York.
Bird S. Coler, a Brooklyn banker,
practically unknown, was nominated
for Comptroller, and Jacob Ruppert,
Jr., whose father owns one of the big-
gest breweries in the country and is
worth $10,000,000, was named for Presi-
dent of the Council. Between the bank-
er and the brewer, Mr. Croker expects
to maintain Tammany’s financial
standing.
The platform scores the trusts and is
strong on home rule; it denounces “the
prodigality, inefficiency and hyprocrisy
of the city administration of the past
three years.” It condemns the Raines
law in that it J‘promotes intemperance,
furnishes a legalized refuge for vice,
imperils the innocence of children and
destroys the sanctity of the home.” It
declares for everything that is good
and true and noble, and scores the Re-
publicans.
Henry George a Factor.
The most striking feature in the
Greater New York situation as it ex-
ists to-day is the commanding position
into which Henry George has been so
suddenly thrust.
There is no question of his mastery
0f the local situation as against Tam-
many. His infiuence is great enough
to cause the overwhelming defeat of
any Tammany candidate.
The most apparent, as well as the
most important fact in the news of to-
day, is that the Mayor of Greater New
York must be approved by Henry
George and his backers, or he cannot
be elected as a Democrat. It is an-
nounced on authority that Henry
George will to-night accept the nom-
ination of the Democratic Alliance at
its meeting, at which Charles Frederick
Adams is to put Mr. George into nom—
ination for Mayor of Greater New
York. Mr. George will also notify the
United Democracy, which has already
nominated him, that he is in the field.
Robert A. Van Wyck was elected‘
Chief Justice of the City Court eight
years ago, and holds that place to-
day. He was born in this city, and is
47 years old. He went to the public
schools for a few years, and left them
to go into business. He had a Job as
errand boy at first, and then became a
clerk. He worked as a clerk five years,
and decided then to go back to school
and get an education. He wanted to
become a lawyer. He entered Columbia
College Law School. He was gradu-
ated in 1872 at the head of a class of
124, and delivered the valedictory ad-
dress. He was a successful lawyer.
Justice 'Van Wyck was arrested
seven years ago on the night of the
French ball, which was held in the
Metropolitan Opera. House. The ar-
rest was made on the order of Sergt.
Schmittberger, who, later, when a cap-
tain, figured in the Lexow investiga-
tion. The arrest, Justice Van Wyck in-
sisted, was ‘an outrage.
GREEK CABINET RESIGNS.
The Boule Decline. to Give It 3 Vote
of Confidence.
I
Athens, Oct. 1.—-At the session of the
Boule yesterday Prime Minister Ralli
presented the preliminary treaty of
peace with Turkey. He deplored the
onerous conditions imposed on Greece,
but said he was of the opinion that the
country must submit to the superior
might of Europe.
When the final treaty came to be dis-
cussed the Government would be pre-
pared tO undertake the responsibility
of accepting the decision. of the concert
of the powers and of negotiating a
final treaty with the Porte and the
financial arrangemento with the pow-
ers and the bondholders. It would
first, hOWever, ask the support of the
Chamber.
M. Ralli’s motion, demanding a vote
of confidence was rejected by a vote
of 93 to 30. About forty members ab-
stained from voting.
Subsequent to the announcement of
the vote the Ministry resigned. The
King will take action on the resigna-
tion to-day.
Must Pay the Alien ’l‘nx?
Harrisburg, Pa., Oct. 1.-—State Treas-
urer Haywood received a communica-
tion from the George V. Cresson Com-
pany, of Philadelphia, asking to be ad—
vised whether it is proper to return the
tax collected from alien employee, as
has been done by other firms. The let-
ter was referred to the Attorney—Gen-
eral’s department for an Opinion, and
to-day Deputy Attorney-General Reed-
er gave the State Treasurer the follow-
ing opinion:
“This department advises that Coun-
ty Commissioners shall insist on em-
ployers making returns and paying the
taxes, as provided in the act of June
15, 1897, until that act shall have been
declared unconstitutional by a court of
last resort.”
Gambling Amendment in Doubt
Trenton, N. J., Oct. 1.—The latest fig—
ures received on the vote on the con-
stitutional amendments on Tuesday
leave a majority of only 783 against the
anti-gambling amendment, and the ad-
lterim appointment amendment ap—
pears to be adopted by a majority of
over 2,000. ~

Transylvania Ballot Law Decision.
Harrisburg, Oct. 1.—Judge McPher-
e'on has decided that the amendment to
the ballot law forbidding the printing
of a candidate’s name on the ballot

GENTLEMEN: I commenced taking P.
l’. P., Lippinan‘s Great Remedy, last
Fall. for Erysipelas. My face was com<
"jxlcte‘. y covered with the disease: I took
- Short course of P. P. P., and it soon
disappeared. This Spring I became
"such debilitated and again took an-
' ‘her course, and I am now in good
condition. I consider P. P. P. one of
"ne best blood preparations on the

eral tonic to build up the system and
improve the appetite I consider that it
"as no equal. Will say, anyone who
cares to try P. P. P. will not be disap-
pointed in its results, and I, therefore,
cheerfully recommend it.
