WHAT I8 BEHIND! ‘The Inéia-rubber quality of the bar- pain secured by the bond syndicate in the sixty-five million issue case, appears to have all its stretch in favor of the syndicate, By the terms of the original contract "at least one-half of all ootn deliveravie” Was to be “shipped from Kurope. Everything concerning the bond trana- action hag been kept as secret as if the Syndicate had been engaged in a mon- ster burglary instead of a legitimate financial transaction, But it ts now di covered that some great concessions have been made by the Government, the effect of which will be to largely in- crease the already enormous profits of the syndicate. Principal among these is the foregoing of the requirement con- cerning foreign gold, About seventeen millions, of domestic coin that never went to Europe, but was hoarded here, has been accepted as a portion of the smount to be “shipped from Europe, and bonds issued therefor. Perhaps one of these days the bond syndicate business of 1894-5 will form the basis of developments that will as- tonish the United States. The good citizens who put Nehts on thelr carriages before the ordinance ‘Was passed will derive great antisfaction from watching the hustle of the car- riage ownera who have waited for the law. NO DELAY FOR CALLAHAN. Callahan, the “Honorable Mike Calla- han,” who helped not so long ago to mak¢ laws for the ix million people of this State, is held in bonds to await the ction of the Grand Jury for breaking the Excise law and brutally assaulting ® policeman. There is no doubt of the result in the Grand Jury room, but there 1s much doubt of the result In the District-Attorney’s office. The Police Commissioners should watch that office. Their duty does not end with mere compliments to a brave policeman Their duty, moral if not legal, ends only With the punishment of whvev. faults one of the men on the force or threatens to sandb bim from be Oy ha “pull” The men of the force must feel absolutely fearless of politt- eal influence, and the only way to teach them that fearlessness is to show them that even politicians when they break the law not only can but actually are tried, convicted, sentenced and punished, A few examples will teach more than words, ‘Therefore, ase watch the District-At- torney’s office. Fight delay. Thine ts the great ally of the accused. Give him no time. None is needed, Push the Prosecution right along. ‘The day of the “pull” must end. The Sick Babies’ Fund has passe! the $16,000 Une. ‘That is good. But it can be much better without being too good. IF HE WOULD ONLY Do IT! Whatever people may think of Mr. Richard Croker, nobody can deny that he is an efficient political leader, He ig an excellent organizer, has good con- trol over men, 1s reticent and cautious and has @ keen scent for public senti- ment. Tammany never obtained such complete ascendancy and power as under his generalship, and he was among the very earliest to see the com- ing cyclone of popular opposition and to run to shelter from the storm. To be sure, it does sound a little ri- @iculous when Mr. Croker talks about governmental reform in New York, and expresses the opinion that the best way to secure for the city an honest and ef™- clent administration would be to give Tammany a lease of power for a num- ber of years, 60 as to insure perma- nency. But when the ex-leader devotes his attention to the Irish question in England; when he points out to his Irish friends the folly of division on side issues and the expediency of stand- ing together in support of the Liberals when he points out the abuses that exist in Ircland and talks about the purchase of an Irish estate, he excites the hope that he may be preparing to offer himself as a Liberator on the other side, and may be preparing to accept the boss-ship of the Irish-Liberal party in England. Would there not be hope for Ireland fm such an ambition? The “Lumber Yard Gang” {s made up of pretty bad sticks. Its adventure with the police last night should be the imeans of breaking it up.

Hints for Young Housewives. Shirts should be turned inside out wo dry, 0 that no dust or specks may drift against them and stick while the starch {s wet. Flannel must be washed in tepid sude —merely squeezed through the hand, never rubbed on a board—snd then rinsed in clear, warm water, whipped out and left to dry. The art of making clothes look clear and transparent is to rinse all the joap gut of them. One way to keep them from looking streaky with blue 1» to whip them out smartly before pinning on the line. Stockings should never soak, but be washed out at once, Colored muslins and ginghams are best washed without soap in warm water, to which has been added two quarts of wheat bran previously boiled half an hour in six quarts of water.
