1 HE BRIDGE QUESTION.
Reply to an Ebullition of too Major's
Official Organ.
The article tn Inst Monday's Issue
anent the visit of Mayor Hendricks and
ills pet councllrtien to Newark and Jer
sey City, has caused a Rood deal of
consternation hereabouts, and has also
arousfd the wrath of the mayor and
Ills organ, the Leader. In an editorial,
they deem that the writer of the ar
ticle should have been called down, us
If no one had a riRht to question the
actions of imbllc .ortlcers, when facts
and flirures are correct and copied front
their own report of the proceeding's.
The Leader for 1-b. i!6 rends tlius:
"Only two bids fur the Melan Arch
bridges were at blind. When read by
the city clerk they were found to run
pIlKtitly higher thafl for the steel struc
tures, which hud not been expected."
These are the bids, as given by the
l.euder:
t'lurk Co., New York, concrete
KlHlilli avenue ''!'-.';'!
Slxih avenue
tijlem avenue 7.h'
Total ........ tM.lT't
Six itullura per cubic yard for extni
work. Tlie entlra ctflitrurt called for
. Then as to steel bridges:
Owt-no lirlcltte company, steel
r.iKiun uvenue
Sixth avenue
fciulem avenue
Total I7.S
Further, as to the llgures of the con
tracts. v- read "that it is not at all
ceiluln that all the bridges can be
built. The bids last night exceeded ex
pectations, since only JI4.0UK hud been
appropriated for them in the new bund
Issue" of iM.WO. Now where dues the
perversion of facts and figures come In?
If accuracy is called In question, mark
the Leader's sample of It III referring;
to Clark 4- Cu.'H bid. "the entire con
truct." of which called. It said, "for $::o.
nou." The actions of the mayor In thin
episode speak Imiiler than words. 11 lie
has iwted in good faith, wherefore Ilia
great anxiety to curry through the bids
on the Melan bridges? Why Ills readi
iiesa to go on their bonds? 'herefore
liis continual promptings of. Mr. Maker,
the proposer of the resolution? And
what meanl his freipu-ut reference to
the agent of the company?
The Leader, by the way, has ulso dis
played a change of front since tl said:
"A close Investigation had shown,
however, that the Sixth uml Klghtli
nveniiK bridge must be of iron, on ac
count of the shallow river bunks ut
those points and the well-known Hoods
which occasionally sweep through the
elmuuel."

FAKE CONFESSIONS.
Motives That Lead .Men to Admit Crimes
They Didn't Commit.
From the New York Sun.
"The hardest men the police have to
ileal with," said a police olllclal to a re
porter, "are those who confess to crimes
that they did not commit: anil they
are nut sciirce, either. Here was ail
instance the other day. this fellow Ma
son, who told of his plan to rob u bank
in New Orleans, and confessed that lie
had blown out the side of a bunk build
ing up In Newtonvllle. Mass. Of course
he lied, alt hough he did tell the circum
stances of the robbery In Newtonvllle
all right. He lived In Boston when the
robbery occurred, and the papers were
full of it. His confession titled tlieclr
cumstuuees as they were printed In the
papers. He fooled the captuiu with his
stories. 1 mean Captain O'Brien. I
don't want to reflect on the captain,
but the fact Is. the fake confession peo
ple fool him more than they do a good
many others.
"You want to know why men confess
to crimes they have not committed'.'
Well, there are several reasons. Some
times they wuut lo be sent home by the
police. They know there Is no chance
of their being convicted when they get
home, and It's an easy way to get home,
others are young men who are ambi
tious to get a reputation us big crooks.
These are the fellows you strike in the
large cities, where the newspapers have
large general circulation. They con
fess to the chief, and the chief tells the
story to the newspapers. It goes all
over the world. It takes four or live
days to llnil out that they are not tell
ing the tin ill. and when that is found
out tli fact Is seldom printed, because
the chief who received the credit for
getting: the confession don't want tu
lose It. Olid If he does tell the newspa
pers they dismiss it with a paragraph.
Now,, just why a mon should be ambi
tious for a reputation us a professional
criminal I can't say, but some people
have queer ambitions. Another reason
men have for confessing to crimes that
they did not commit Is a desire to shield
the reul Wlinluul long enough for him
to make good his escape. Women are
more apt lo do this than men. Con
fessing that you committed a crime of
which you are not guilty is pretty
safe, anyway. The law everywhere Is
that a person cannot be convicted on
an Informal confession. There must be
corroborating evidence, and besides
rttat the man who says he did. but
didn't, ran nearly always prove a good
ulr-'jl."

Vlee-Presldent Thomas M. King, of

the Pittsburg and Western railroad,
which Is controlled by the Baltimore
and Ohio. The receivership will not af
fect the Kaltimnre ami Ohio Southwest
ern nor the Staten Island Rapid Tran
sit coiniuinies, both of which lire also
controlled by the Baltimore and Ohio.
Messrs. Oowen and Murray have been
appointed uiixiiiary receivers of the
company's property In New York state.
It Is stated that the receivers will em
ploy surplus earnings in the general
overhauling of the rolling stock. They
ulso Intend to cut down expenses ns
much ns possible, and it Is understood
that every employe not actually need
ed will be relieved of his position. U
Is not Intended, however, to cripple tin
service of the company, on the con
trary. It will be iinmoved as much as
possible. Railroad men and llnancleis
believe that a fatal mistake wus made
when the Baltimore and Ohio disposed
of the Virginia Midland Railway com
pany, and began extending north to
Baltimore. The Vlrgiuiu Midland was
transferred to the Richmond und Dan
ville system, now the Southern Railway
company. In IS8U. II comprised 41:1
miles Kit road and extended from a
point n.-ur Washington lo Charlotte.
N. I'. The sale of this line is consid
ered -to huve been the beginning of the
Baltimore utld Ohio's troubles, as II en
tirely destroyed Ihe southern business
of the company. Alter disposing of
this property. Mr. llarrett begun build
ing north lo Baltimore. Involving an
expenditure ill' millions of dollars in the
shape of udditiouul indebtedness U,d
Imposing fixed charges upon the parent
corporation, which for years were not
comoeiisuted for from Die earnings of
the Philadelphia extension. Alter this
project hud been completed the next
step was to provide rapid transit
through Bulliinoie und to connect tin
main system wllh the Philadelphia di
vision. The building of Ihe Bell loud
Hud tunnel followed, und it Is supposed
that this cost about J IU.Ooo.uoo, and
which. including the Philadelphia
branch, brought the total up lo about
L'l ,0110,000. Tlie position of the Balti
more and Ohio might be Improved by
the reorganization of some of lis sub
sidiary companies so as In cut down In
terest charges and rentals, ami this
will probably be done, bin there Is more
than this to be done to put the Balti

Mr. William Thornton, of 127 W. Murker
Street, l.xplulns How and
W hy lie Did It.
Proni the Klmira Oazette.
Old a re has many infirmities, none
of which are more prevalent thun kid
ney disorders. Have you ever noticed
how the old people complain of back
ache, lame back, and ueneral llHtleM
ness? And there are many other symp
toms of which they do not speak, such
as bloatiiiK of the limbs, painful and in
frequent urination or excesslveness of
urinary discharge. Most people think
they are too old to find relief and cure,
but this Is not so. No better evidence
than the following, which conies from
an Klniiia citizen, who has been cured
of a very severe case at 77 years of age.
Mr. VVm. Thornton, of 127 W est Market
street, peaks of his cuse in this way:
"I am 77 years old. 1 have been af
flicted with that dreadful complaint
(kidney disease) for over ten years,
inaKiiiK my old age a burden. 1 was
so bad as to be forced to carry a bell
at all times, and, when my suffering
became beyond endurance, I would put
on the belt, drawing it tightly around
rne and buckle It. thus bringing an ex
treme pressure over the kidneys: this,
ndoubtediv forced the urine out. a
function which the kidneys themselves
had become too diseased to perform.
My condition I put down to a strain I
received. 1 began taking I loan's Kid
ney Fills. After two or three days I
noticed their effect. 1 was much sur
prised, as the ailment was so severe
and so long standing, w hile I hud tried
I many remedies without any relief what
ever. The pain I have experienced at
times from straining In my efforts to
: discharge (he urine was simply awful.
I I have done away with the use of my
j leather belt, and the pain bus all gone,
i and I recommend Dean's Kidney fills
j to all afflicted with kidney and urinury
I disorders."
