8 NEW YORK, HERALD, UNSAFE CHURCH DOORS. fhe Building Department Inspectors in the Footsteps of Herald Reporters. Only Five Safe Churches Out of Twenty-two Examined—Are There 275 Religious Death Traps in the City ? Since the appalling accident at St. Andrew's shuren tne inspectors of the Building Department have been very actively empioyed in more critical examinations of buildings believed to be danger- ous. The resuit is that the number of buildings reported unsale exceed by a very large number those reported for the same period last year, and the business nas so mereased that the clerks and heads of Bureaus compiain that they have to work nigit and day, and even then are unable to dis- pose of the lapor of the rtment as fast as complaints come. The Attorney of the Bureau, Mr, Gedney, who ares (he complaints against violators of the law, reports that so many cases have been recenily referred to him for prosecu- ton in the Courts tuat he had been compelied to give precedence to caases of dangerous buildings. Among t by him are thie fol lowing case 4 de of DANGEROUS BUILDINGS. A stable at No, 248 East Houston street, owned by Charles Jourdan, the walls of whch are badly ont o: plumb, bulged and cracked.

BOARD OF ALDERMEN. IMPORTANT MEETING YESTERDAY—RAPID TRAN- SIT—THE PARK DEPARTMENT TO GET ANOTHER OVERHAULIN' ‘the Board of Aldermen held a meeting yester- day, and although they began business at four o'clock, the usual hour, it was six o’clock before they got through. The routine work was very large, and several important matters were di posed of. All the Aldermen were preseat. Comp- troller Green, Commissioners Bailey and Brennan, of the Department of Charittes ana Correction; Commissioner Wheeler, of the Department of Taxes, and Commissioner Voorhts, of the Police, Were aiso in attendance, | THE PARK DEPARTMENT. AS 1¢ now seems the special season for all sorts ot Uugations, and although ine Park Depart- ment was called upon long ago by the Alaermen for full 1uformation as to the affairs of the depart- ment, and their response was not deemed satis- tactory, Mr. McCarthy @eemed it proper to “go for” the Park Commissioners in a@ way that will make the muer workings of the commission plain as day. The way he porposes to get at all tbe facts is given in ihe lollowing preambie and resolu- uou:— Whereas it is reported that grave irregularitles exist in the manner of keeping the accounts in the Depart- ment ot Public Parks, and thatin yuence of such irregularities, by which it 1s allege sropriations tor | specitic purposes have been used for other purposes.

Mr. Guntzer beheves that Tompkins square ougUs not to “Mate,” as he pub it i hts resolu- tion, against the recreation oO: the poor ot the Seventeenth ward, aud so he offered a resolation calling upon the Legislature to repeal the law of 1sv6, which gave it over to the military for a pa- rade ground, Tue resolution drew the fire of the colonel ot Fity-flith regiment, Alderman Gilon, Who charged upon it savagely. Guntzer would not give Way, however, and being rein- sorced finally by & majority of the Boara the resolution wus passed. THE PARK HOSPITAL, A communication Was received from the Com- missioners ol Chariues and Correction asking the Board to designate Fome building which tney can use aS a hospital mstead of tue Park Hospital, watch been declared 11 a dangerons conaition and already been Vacated, It Was reierred to the Committee on Pupie Works, A CLEAR SNUB, The resolution offered by Corporation Counsel Smith last Week thaoking Mr. Ottendorier for hav- ing allowed the Law Department to occupy offices in his building reat free Cieated a warm ‘debate, When tue resolution came up adversely reported tue Committee on Law.

He said tt would ve nigh time tor the Boara to thank Mr. Ottendorier for his so-called generosity When be gave the city a quit claim ior tue reni. IN THE WAY.

County A Lysaght, McCarthy, Geery, Dean and MUNICIPAL NOTES. By resoiution of the Common Counell the name of Amity street bas been changed to West Third sireet. The resolution gave rise to a great deal of Virtuous talk on the part o! the Aldermen in the Board yesterday, during which it was very clearly shown that the street néeds considerable over- hauling by the police. How the character of an ola street can be changed by simply calling it by anew name is one of those mysteries which only Aldermen can understand, itis charged tuat the Park Commissioners have expended over $60,000 on their “coustruction jund,’? which was taken from the “maintenance tund,'? and that by reason of this yesterday over woo ‘workmen had to ve disebarged, it is said wat this transfer of muneys was made through tne biundering of a clerk in the department pointed tirongh the im- fluence of Comptrolie n.

SCHOOL VENTILATION, A PHYSICIAN’S COMPLAINT AGAINST THE FAULTY AND UNSAFE METHOD! OF WARMING 4 PUBLIC SCHOOL. Doctor Moreau Morris, well known to many of | | our citizens irom his long and prominent connec- tion with the City Health Bureau, in the following communication to an officer in the Department of Education, Makes grave assertions respecting the total disregard of the heaith of pupils and teachers in the arrangements for alrlng and warming one of the public schools. If all oar city school build- ings are justly open to such criticism there can be no doubt apoat the duty of the School Board to take immediate steps to correct the evil.

A PEN PICTURE OF GOVERNOR INGERSOLL. A Calculation of the Chances of Candidates, New HAVEN, March 23, 1875. The humors of @ political canvass in New Eng- land are always refreshing to an outsider, though, perhaps, not so readily appreciated by the na- tives. The present campaign in Connecticat 18 not an eXception to the rule, Wit is a scarce | article in the Yankee markets, but absurdity 1s a staple product, and it is this jatter element which | infuses so much {jun into everything one hears. | In politics these characteristics are especially noticeable, for the New England politician is the most absurd of mortais, A common Connecticut Congressman strats about his district like a great gobbler lording it over the ordinary fowls in a farmer’s barnyard, and his antics can be com- pared to nothing possessing ‘contemporaneous human interest” except the lame and impotent display of a pooractor in a velvet coat, show- ing himself in Broadway, Fortunately Con- necticut cannot have more than four of these fellows at one time, and is is not often that ail of them are so absurd as one or two of the members of the last Congress whom I could mention, Kellogg, for instahce. ‘his indi- vidual 1s, however, such an exquisite specimen, so loud of voice and so anxious to attract attentio! so oracular in speech and so feeble in idea: determined to be the lion on every occasion, even though he is acom.non piace sheep enough, that Icaunot resist the impulse of accepting lim as the type of a class only too common at Washing- ton Curing the fifteen years of republican ascend- ancy in Congress, if TYPICAL BEHAVIOR OF THE “TYPE,’’ Kellogg comes from Waterbury and 1s called a “General,’’ whether as the result of State bonors or of real or supposed services in tne fleld at that period when brigadiers were more common than private soldiers it 1s unnecessary now to inquire. He has been in Congress a good many years, | where le failed to acquire that bigh political character which would have placed him above suspicion, and he i8 again & candidate for His opponent 1s Judge Pheips. of the Supreme Court, against whom nothing can be urged except that he is a judge and is willing to resign it he is elected to Congress. The contest will be a close one, and General Kellogg’s career | may be cut short in its very flower and fruit time. | This, ‘naturaily enough, makes him anxious, and develops his typical qualities to the utmost. His zeal in bis own behalf, and his consequent interest in the success of the party, brought nim | here on Thursday to assist Judge Hoar in opening the State canvass at Music Hali, All New Haven might have known he was intown if the New | Haveners, as they cail themseives, had only tacen the trouble to look every time he seemed to think he ougnt to be seen. I frst saw bimin the large dining room of the New iiaven House, and there my attention was attracted to him py hearing him, His loud tones were intended for the ears of everybody present, and were employed in the enunciation of the axiom that /suc cess 18 the true aim and end of Iiltte.” The scene was so ludicrous in itself that people smiled and questioned each other, but at the same time it afforded suct an exact measure- ment lor the average Congressman that its polit- ical effect must have proved salutary if many of | General Kellogg’s constituents were present. FRIDAY, MARCH 26, 1875.—TRIPLE SHEET. importance, but the how! that goes up from the republicans is terrific. Ever Judze Hoar spoke of it ip his speech bota in t! city and in Hartford, But if the question nad any importance rhe man her In which the question 18 presented to the Independent voters of these districts Is exquisite in its absurdity, If there was any sense of humor among the people the whole state Would be on & broad grin atl the time, The republican papers are full of extracts trom the democratic press of vhe State denouncing the mdecent exbibition of a judge being a candidate for Congress, originally published two ye & cangiaate against Mr, Barnum; while the ats retort with the apologies “aud tions of the republicans at that time. ‘The boot 18 on the other leg—that ig ail One cannot hetp laughing at the absurdity of such a situation—a situation due entirely to the cant of Connecticut polities, in which both parties seem to be equally versed, [t would be a pity, however, if either Kellogg or Starkweather sheuld be elected because of such an insincere objection to Phelps and Foster, have brougat more discredit upon themse.ves, their constituents and tue country than these Connecticut Cungressmen, and they really de- serve to be beaten, especially by such worthy can- didates as thew opponents. There 18 a chance that it will be done; though, I am sory to say, It is only a chance, y “MY GRANDFATHER.” But turning trom this rather serious work of the calculation of the chances of candidates to my real theme—Yankee abdsuraity in politics—I con- Jess that nothing amuses me more than the re- Spect that is paid to grandfathers in tis ——rough land of earth, and stone, and tree, Where breathes no castled lord or cabined slave. Mr. Baldwin, in introducing Judge Hoar at the meeting in this city the other night, took occ»sion toreier to the distinguished gentieman’s distin- guished ancestor, and Mr, Robinson, who presided atthe Hartford meeting, did not fail to remark that the gentleman irom Massachusetts belouged to Connecticut also, being @ grandson of Koger Snerman. Even the Judge, himself, rejerred to the Deciaration of Independence as “that instru. ment to which my grandiather set bis hand.” Ail this is tunucent enough, and adds an exquisite favor toa campaign that 1s tuil of mirth to any one Who can appreciate the grotesque, the illogi- cal and the absurd in politics, SHARKEY'S ARREST. THE MUBDERER WARNED OF THE MOVEMENTS | OF THE NEW YORK DETECTIVE—HE TRIES TO ESCAPE FROM CUBA—HIS CAPTURE AND PREPARATION FOR DEPORTATION. Havana, March 20, 1875, On the 9th inst., twodays before the arrival of the steamer Crescent City at this port, a despatch was received here by one of Sharkey’s friends, from Charles Sharkey in New York, stating that an oMcer wagon board the Crescent City with | | authority to carry Sharkey back to New York, and to jurnish him with money to leave Havana imme- diately and draw on him for the same, HIDING AWAY. When the Crescent City arrived Sharkey took up his quarters at Guanabacoa, @ suburb of Havana, to await the salling of some vessel by wbich he could take passage and not be known. On Satur- day, the 13th, he took passage on the Spanish coasting steamer Saratoga for Santiago de Cuba under the name of John Fox (a boiler maker from New York, said to be related by marriage to Sharkey), Who furnished him with money and a passport.
