Whitney on political topics is always in season and always of interest. The Feason is that when Mr. Whitney talks he has something to say and says that something well. ‘The Whitney interview at Bar Har- Dor in yesterday's “World” is a wel- ome contribution to the political thought of the day. The ex-Secretary mere that Mr. Cleveland is stronger ith the people than ever and that the Democratic party is in better condition than It has been at any former period wince the war. Yet he {s not a believer fp > third term, and says: “I cannot eoncetve that anything except perhaps @ practically unanimous call would in- @uce Mr. Cleveland again to be a can- didat The good common sense of the people ments, Mr. McClave, in intense excite ment, denounced him as @ forger and thief, and offered evidence to prove his rascalities. But he was not allowed to Q@ssail the witness, who was under “pro tection,” and the prosecuting officers were compelled to forego any proceed- ings against Granger on the ground that they would be interfering with and ob- structing the Lexow Committee's work Last night this same Gideon Granger was arrested and lodged in jail in De troit on a charge of forgery. Tt 1s al leged that he haa swindled right and left in Detroit by means of worthiesn| checks and notes, and that he fled to Canada to avoid arrest, Venturing back to Detroit, however, he has been laid by the heels, and is now in Jail. If the charges axainat him are sun tained, the stories told by ex-Commi sioner McClave at the time of the Lexow examination will be confirmed, and Mr McClave will receive a tardy share of sympathy and justification. ‘The unaup- ported evidence of a forger and thief ought not to be allowed to biast any man’s character.

A War OUT. ‘The courts interpret the laws. The police see that they are obeyed in ac- cordance with the interpretation. “The World's" interesting article by an ex- District-Attorney on Sunday excise en- forcement in the past shows that since the foundation of the city the pyblic vending of liquor on Sunday has been prohibited “for the better observance” of the day. With very few interruptions the law has been construed ae preventing the public display of bara on Sundays and disorderly acts offensive to the religious observers of the day. When the Metropolitan Board of Po- lice was created @ clause in the reform law made it the duty of the Board and {ts Superintendent to enforce the Sun- day law. Ex-Recorder Frederick A. ‘Talmadge, who had been also a mem- ber of the Excise Board, was Superin- tendent of Police, A consultation was held in which the Superintendent, the Corporation Coursel and the District- Attorrey took part.

DRAMATIC NEWS AND NOTES. Baritone Steger Seeks Freedom fro Notoriety=London to Have an Unknown “Trilby.” Jullus Steger, the good-looking young baritone, who In “The Algerians” was the vietim of osculatory circumstances over which he had no control, ts going to make a manly effort to free himseif from an amount of notorlety which, he declares, has been most distasteful to him, and seek a New York verdict on his own merits. Mr. Steger is in the city at present—Miss Tempest ts In Lon- don-and he is very bitter on the sub- ject of his treatment here, “How could I be expected to do anything in‘ ‘The Al- gerians,' he sald yesterday, “when the audience was simply watting for those ridiculous Kisses that had been discussed all over the land?

Miss Nancy MeIntosh plays the leading fem!- nine part. I have been engaged for two seasons by George Edwardes, which surely shows that I have more in me than I have been credited with having. I don't want any more notoriety, I have had quite enough of it.” Mr. Setger is perfectly serious, and ts burn. ingly anxious to be viewed henceforth as an actor. . Dost remember tha: before the production of “Trilby” an actor ventilated an opin- fon in this column to the effect that the leading role should be played by some beautiful but absolutely unknown wo- man? Well, that advice ts go.ng to be followed in'London. Instead of getting Miss Marion Terry, or Mrs. Pat Camp- bell, Sr some other popular actress to Interpret the role of 3 O'Ferrall, Beerbohm ‘Trea has ted a Miss Dorothea Ba'rd, a remarkably pretty and statuesque ‘nobody, who has been on the stage for a year only. This was a wise move, and It will materially en- hance the value of the London produc- Hon, besides making Svengali more con- spleuous than ever. oe Miss Nanette Comstock, who has been playing in “The Girl T Left Behind Me” in London, has returned to this coun- try. She Was very homesick, She hated England, could see nothing in London, and simply pined for New York, Yet it appears she had her pletures in, the paners (which she docan't have in New york) and most flattering notices (which are also of rare occurrence here), “The Girl" was a great success In London.

One who wateh n Are Worn. the belle of the season and her many duplicates at the resorts of fashlonabia folk, must b Impressed with the force of the fact that style is quite as much in the way clothes are worn as in the clothes themselves, One woman carries her clothes, and for every one of her ten or twenty—It sometimes really seems like ten hundred—shambles along somehow, anyhow. ashionable women have learned the knack of wearing clothes; therefore, where many fashionable women are congregated together the result is very pleasing to the onlooker, A woman can't be taught to carry her clothes well by any amount of lecturing She must evolve the secret for herself, But she can be sure of one thing. Her clothes must fit her, fit her shape and size, and fit her style; she must be un- conscious of them having once got them on; she must stand well, and walk well and sit well. String Beans Cooked in Wine. A new way of cooking string beans Is to stew them in wine, Parboll some string beans in slightly salted water, then drain. Make a light roux with flour and butter and moisten with a cup of broth and a glassful of red wine. Keep this sauce hot on the side of the range. Put some butter in a pan and when hot add a heavy pinch of chopped fine herbs, and then the drained beans. ‘Toss them in the butter for two or three minutes, Then put them In a dish and slowly pour over them the prepared sauce, with a squeeze of lem- on as a finishing touch, A Wooden Hat. The Connecticut wooden nutmeg !s, of course, a myth; but a Connecticut man has just patented a machine for making hats out of wood. A log of wood, cut aquare, fed to the machine, ts converted into fine strips of wood, much resem- bling excelsior. It Is claimed that when these are moistened they can be woven much more readily than straw, and make a durable hat. ‘The Inventor says substance {s lighter in weight than aw, and that because of the easier manipulation and lower cost It will su- persede the straw now used for head- gear. How to Une the Spoon, ‘There are a thousand ways by which a housemistress may prove the homely old saying that a woman can throw out with a spoon faster than a man can throw in with a shovel, and a thousand other ways by which she can prove herself able to use her metaphorical spoon to greater advantage. The first type of woman leaves the draughts of her Kitchen stove open and keeps the fire going at full blast when there ts no need of It; the second closes the draughts and dampers and plans to make the fire do as much as possible at one time. The first throws away what with a little trouble could be made Into “drippings” which would serve in cook- ing as well and often better than butter; LETTERS.

M. re 1 was put into a dirty cell and kept until court opened at 10.30 A. M. Pinally the Jude scuarged me and reprimanded the policeman for over-offciousness. That was well and good, but what must those who maw me led through the streets have thought of mo? AMERICAN, that you state in to-night's paper that no more chowder parties will obtain per- mits to parade In the evening, Is It because we are not rich or belong to the Four Hundred that we cannot enjoy ourselves?

What do the under- takera have to think about, anyway? People could make their tlonery by using black courtplaster, could be used for mourning—it Is a pretty colo: Every death notice tn the newspaper ought to have a line of black surrounding It, #9 that when cut out it would have a finished appearance.
