‘ Among the witnesses before the Lex-
ow investigating committee on Tuesday
last was one Francis Skoiastika, who in
spite of his name, appears to have been
an honest, industrious young fellow,
carrying on the business of abootblack
in front of the store of Haslin Bros. &
00., who had permitted him to occupy
the location in consideration of his
keeping the windows ,and sidewalks
clean. Skolastika’s testimony was as
follows. _ _ ' .
“My stand is Within the stoop line. I
never had it on the Sidewalk. Last
year the policeman demanded money.
The ward man asked it. I then offered
85. He said that would not be enough.
I offered $10 and he took it. .He said
he would have to give $5 of it to the
‘other party.’ He did not tell me who
theother party was. Mr. Haslin told
me I had no right to pay the police, and
that they could not put me off as long
as he said I could stay. Policemen used
to come around and ask me for half a
dollar at a time, but I never gave it to
them.”
“When did you pay the man the
$10?” asked Mr. Nicoll.
“A few days after the 1st of May a
year ago,” said Skolastika, promptly.
“Who was With you?”
“Ah” said the Witness, “nobody.
The man took me to a liquor store and
into the closet, where nobody could see
us. There I gave him the money, and
when he got the .1510 he said: Come on,
Frank, and let’s have a drink, and wg
hadadrink, and he treated me,— an
paid 25 cents, so that left $9.75 out of
the $10.
And the magnanimous freebooter,
having done his errand, made off with
his plunder to divide with the “other
party.”
The system of blackmail which the
Lexow committee, not altogether on
the testimony of the keepers of unli-
censedbar-rooms and baguios, but by
many reputable witnesses, has shown
to have been flagrantly carried on year
after year under the very eyes, and,
necessarily, with the knowledge of the
police authorities, must have been as
comprehensive in its operations as it
was infamous in its character. It was
no rcspecter of persons. It sought all
classes for its victims, from the mer-
chant who, sooner than be dragged into
court on some technical charge of en-
cumbering the sidewalk or otherwise
ofiending against the municipal ordi-
nances, consented to be bled by the
“ward man,” down to the poor boot-
black, who did not even occupy the
sidewalk, but-whose simplicity made
him easy prey to the official highway-
man.
In the face of this vast mass of con-
demnatory testimony that has been ad~
duced, all going to show corruption in
the department to an almost incredible
extent, the wonder is that the people of
New York do not rise in their wrath
and sweep away the political organiza-
tion upon which the ultimate responsi-
bility rests. Or is this organization so
strongly entrenched, its resources so
enormous, its influence so potential,
that its thraldom cannot be broken?
We can have but little sympathy with a
community that tamely, and year after
year, submits to such a despotism; but
for the honor of the country and its
chief metropolis, for the sake of de-
cency and dignity and good govern-
ment, may we not hope that even New
York, says the Washington Post, will
rally to the rescue at the ensuing elec-
tion and save whatever good name she
has left from further abasement?
. He was Touched. .
George McKee, U. S. Internal reve-
nue inspector, reported to the Hart-
ford police on Saturday, that he had
been robbed of an Internal revenue
draft numbered 578,528, drawn in favor
of himself, two notes worth $300, and
between $50 and $60 in cash. He car-
ried the valuables in an envelope in the
inner pocket of his coat. He missed
the package Saturday. The bankers
have been notified and will be on the
lookout for the presentation of the
notes or the drafts.

the'.4th of July in the good old fash-

that they refrain from shooting a can--
non or large fire crackers on Town

The second accident to occur within

road near Spring street at 7:30 o’clock
Sunday evening. _‘ _
A young man‘named Martin Frenson,
hailing from Hartford, was stealing a

,South Norwalk at 7:30, and when near
Spring street he attempted to Jumpofi‘.

and carried to the baggage room at the
depot from where he was’removed to
the hospital in the ambulance, accom-

After an examination of his ‘inyuries
and a consolation between Drs. Burke,
Allen, Baker and Tracy it was decided
that amputation at the thigh was nec—

operation. . "
Frenson stood the amputation nicely
and passed a fairly good night and is

Fire Bugs at Work.
'A disastrous fire broke out shortly
after midnight Sunday morning in the
livery stable of John Borin nearly op-
posite the depot in Greenw1ch. _The
flames spread with wonderful rapidity
and in a few minutes the stable was
a mass of flames. A stifi' southwest
breeze fanned the flames and soon after
the stable of William J. Smith which
was adjoining took fire. The rapid
spread of the flames caused consider-
able alarm and at one time it was
thought that the other buildings imthe
neighborhood would be destroyed.
A request was sent out to Stamford,
Portchester and several other adjoin-
ing towns for assistance. but before the
local fire department had the fire un-
der control. Four horses which were
in Borin’s stable perished in the flames
and two valuable carriages were de-
stroyed. The loss to Borin will amount
to $5,000, while Smith estimated his
loss at $2,000.
The fire is supposed to have been
started by some enemy of Boris. The
town authorities recently raised the
license so high that several of‘the liv-
erymen were unable to reach it. Borin
paid for the license andconsequently
he had a monopoly of the trade there.

MURDERED HER OFFSPRING:
1 Mother Hangs Hor- Four Little Ones to
. the Posts of a. Bed.
RICHFORD, Vt, J uly 2.-—Mrs. Merrill
Baker, the mother of four children, whose
Iges ranged from 1 to 8 years, as a result
if a quarrel with her husband yesterday,
‘iangcd the little ones to the ,bodposts 1n
ier chamber and then fled to the Woods.
Baker and his wife have lived unhappi-
y during the past two years and have
operated several times. Yesterday morn-
ng they quarrcled again, and us a result
ihcy decided to separate for the last time.
Mr. Baker started to take his household
effects .to the residence of his brother in
Enosburg, about eight miles away. Soon,
after Mr. Baker left the house, when there
was no one near, Mrs. Baker took the
children to her chamber and there hanged
them to the bedposts, and they were dead
when found. The fiendish woman had
tied the neck of each of her little ones
tightly to its respective post. Two ca?
nary birds were also found ..hanging by
their necks dead in the room. - This is
taken as an indication that the mother
was insane. , " _ -
When the horror stricken neighbors ro-
covered sufiiciently to search for Mrs.
Baker, no trace of her could be found.
Searching parties were sent out in all di-
rcctions. but they huntedgi vain for hours.
The search of the neighbors Was kept
up, however, and was zsuccessful after a
long time, and the Woman was found hid: ‘7
ing in the bushes not a great distance from“ ‘
the house. Her appearances clehrlfshdw-
:d that she is insane. It is said that Bak-
BP'S jealousy was the cause of the quarrel.

His Person Changed.
BERLIN, July 2.—A startling rcport'ih'as
reached here from St. Petersburg. It says.
that the czar recently found upon his tan:
his a document which set forth that sen-
tence of death had been pronounced upon
him, and that the sentence would be car-
ried out within 24 110;.1'5. This document
was signed, “The Society For the Libera-
tion of the Russians.”
A few days afterward the czar, aCcord-
ing to the same story, found upon the
dressing table in his bedroom agikull with
the word “Alexander” inscribed upon the
frontal bone.
The greatest alarm is said to have been
caused throughout the imperial palace and
in official Russian circles generally by
these discoveries, and it is added that up
to the present all the resources of the Rus-
sian secret and public police have proved
utterly useless to discover how the ‘docu-
ment and the skull were introduced into
the palace, much less to find‘ any clew to
the persons connected with this attempt
to alarm the czar.
General Tscherevin, who was in charge
of the imperial palace and who was} re-
sponsible for the safety of the czar, has
since been dismissed from his post.
Frightened The Czar.
On June 8 last a ukaso was issued ap-
pointing General Tschcrevln a specicl ofil-
ocr for the protection of the imperial fam-
ily. It was also said that Genera-ls Tsche-
revin and WoronzOff were practically do-
ing what they pleased with the empire,
and that the most startling rumors were
in circulation regarding the administra-
tion of these two soldiers and its possible
outcome. .
czar has been thoroughly alarmed, and it
is stated that all the imperial servants
since the discovery of the “sentence of
death” and the skull have been replaced
by old Soldiers.
In addition the imperial palaces have
been thoroughly searched from roof to col-
lar. the basetn‘nts have been sounded and
examined by military engineers and
trenches in some instances have been
dug in different parts of the grounds in
order to ascertain if secret passages com-
munlcating with the palaces had been con-
ltructod by the enemies of the czar.
Franco and Germany. .
The tragedy at Lyons by which France
was throwu into mourning for, her chief
magistrate, the late President Sadi-Car-
not’ still absorbs the attention of the pub-
lic and is the main subject commented
upon in the newspapers throughout Ger-
many. The newspapers of Berlin in par-
ticular teem with articles dealing with the
malnation' and its- political conse-
quences and the influence which it may
have on the overpressing anarchist ques -’
tlon. "
The official attitude of Germany toivard
France under these exceptional circum-
stances has been the subject of much
comment. It was at first intended to send
a member of the Hohenzollern family to
represent Emperor William at the funeral,
but certain questions ‘of precedence could
not be settled to the satisfaction of the
court here. Hence Count yon Munster,
the German ambassador at Paris, was in~
structed to lay a wreath upon the casket
containing the remains of the late presi-
dent. '
Then umbragc was taken in some quar-
ters at the fact that the town council of
Berlin went out of its way in order to ex-
press sympathy with France in her grief.
The fault finders especially referred in
their complaints at this action upon the
part of the municipal authorities to' the
neglect of the municipal authOflties of
Paris to take any action when the deaths
of the late Emperors Willianr and Fred-
erick were announcEd.
A Real statesman.
On the whole, however, it is evident
that the feeling of Germany‘s toward
France is - no longer resentful. Genuine
and deep sympathy has been expressed on
all sides in this country for France in her
deep grief.
The report that the German govern.
ment had drawn the attention of the gov-
ernment of France to the fact that the
safety of Germans in France was imperil-
ed by the antiforeigner feeling aroused by
the fact that the assassin of President
Carnot is an Italian is untrue. .On the
contrary, Count von Munster was instuct-
ed to express perfect confidence in the en.
ergy and ability of 'the French govern-
ment to avert any excesses
The election of M. Casimir-Perier to the
presidency has been‘welcomed here on all
sides as a fresh augury of the mainten-
ance of order. It is recognized in Berlin
that France has for the first time since
the death of Thiers a real statesman in the
presidential chair. ‘

PARIS, July 2,—Not alono' anris,_but tha
whole of France demonstrated yesterday
its deep seated affection for licr-assasinat-.
ed Carnot, and honors, military and civic,
were lavished with a profusion unparal-
body was laid away in the tomb.
Paris has witnessed elaborate funeral
displays, but the outpouring, the decora-
tionsland the floral tributes which were
seen when the body of the late president
was conveyed from the Elysee palace to,
the catheral of Notre Dame and thence to
the Pantheon were more extensive than
ever before. .
The funeral of Marshal MacMahon in
October last left little fro the imagination
in imposing magnificence, but the tribute
to the martyred chief magistrate was lim-
ited-only by the nation’s resources. The
gardens of all France were stripped of
their beauty. to testify/to the pc'dilar love
and loyalty. In Paris alone 1,600, 000
francs were spent for these tributes, and
they literally lined the way‘from the Ely-
see to the tomb. - »
The services at Notre Dame were im-
pressive in the extreme, and from there
to the Pantheon the funeral cortege passed
between living walls of humanity with
bored and bowed heads, and with appro-
priate services the casket was laid in its
final resting place. Carnot was indeed
honored in death as in life.
