"(jot to" Senator McCarren. who was aide to iiitlueiice Mayor MH'ellan to remove the police commissioner as a scapegoat who hail acted in pursu ance of plans made ly the mayor. In niaklnu' these plans, the former commissioner asserts, the purpose of the mayor was to capture the Tam many i ruMiiizatlon for himself, not withstanding his assurances that he luii! determined to ret I le from politics al the end of Ids term. (ieiieral lilncham charges that the mayor cherished an ainliltioiis desiirii to become the Xew York boss and that in carrylm; out the des;'ii he stuiuht to have the commissioner so run the police department as to favor political leaders who wished 'to protect unlaw ful interests. Taking up I lie recount case. General Iiif,'hain criticises the attitude of the mayor In that licht, addinir: "The mayor's political instincts and training made the plaudits of the crowd most pleasant. To llntl himself deserted suddenly was a shock to the man who had more than his share of vanity. McClellati shut himself up like n cave man and refused to attend pub lic functions where his olliclal pres ence was desired. "He could not be made to see that he must pay the penalty of his own lack of nerve in weleoinliit; a recount when such proceedings became Inevitable. "This light on McClellau's character was u surprise to inc. Above all, 1 urged IiimVto show the people that he was not afraid to lose his Job. That lie did not have the nerve to do this constantly was due to the fact that on one or two of the liifroipient occasions in which he did appear in public his greeting by applause was well salted with jeers and hisses." The former commissioner says that when he became police commissioner it was with the promise of McClellan that he would not be hampered by politicians. "I was given lo understand that he had made up his mind to quit politics. AVhen his term of olllco expired he would enter some other business," he nays, but he soon learned that instead of seeking to get out of politics the mayor "did not possess strength of character enough to keep his promise and keep politics out of my end of Ids administration. He became seized with the great idea that in the four years of otllco then liefore him he could ob tain t lie control of Tammany Hall. The light was to begin at once. Im mediately contests to displace tdd dis trict lenders were instituted in many assembly districts." The general indicates that the fight began to fall because of his refusal to lend the police department to the schemes of the city hall. "So bnd did his political scheme bo come," he says, "In some of the dis tricts of Manhattan nfter Mayor Mc Clellan began his contests at the pri maries for the leadership of Tammany Hall thai I had to make radical changes In the personnel of those districts. "Many disreputable resorts had started us If sure of the right kind of protection, and saloon keepers had ceased to take the police into their calculations. "Not only," says the general, "was the license bureau found to be doing a land office business In graft, but It often trebled the cost of show li censes." Ho charges that McClellan in a "spasm of wrath" ordered all moving picture shows be closed on Sunday notwithstanding that he had issued seven day licenses to them and could not legally make the order, which the courts estopped by injunction. General lilngham charges that Mc Clellan said to him in response to n question as to the meaning of this wave of reform: "I am playing a little game to win the ministers." out several hundred letters, most of which were from cranks and women.

A illspatch received from Walter Well man's arctic expedition camp at Spits bergen says: "The north gale which had been blowing for eight days dropped on the l'Jth. and Mr. Welliiian made every thing ready to start in search of the north pole. The balloon was lnllated i broad valley. The main body of the I red army advanced toward this pusl- tlon. The blues opened lire upon the Invaders and brought their two amo guns to boar upon the advancing col umn. Preceding the general engagement there was a rcdliot skirmish on Mld dleboro green, In which the outposts on the left wing of the blue nrmy of defense were attacked and driven back by a flying squadron of cavalry. The engagement lasted for an hour and was finally called off by the umpires, who decided that the reds had driven back tile hljios. liefore hostilities could bo renewed the blue outposts at the command of the umpires were forced to retire half a mile to the north and take up a new position. The battle was fought on the green, close by the railway station. The mil - To Remove Stains. I Blood.

S-ollaiid furnishes most of the un bleached medium priced linen. It wears well, and many people purchase It and bleach ll on the grass, as It Is uu derate In price. Gorman linen has a hard twisted thread. This makes It look rather coarse, but for common purposes It , tloes well. A good rule In buying linen Is to go by the firmness 'of the weave rather, than by the weight or the pat tern. The snowdrop nud the check will be found the most satisfactory for pat terns. Largo designs require a longer thread, which wear out sooner than the smnller patterns. A good damask should bo of fair weight, not too fine, not too stiff, but with a soft, pliable appearance. It has been calculated that a table two yards square will scat four per sons and thnt every additional person will take half n yard of spneo or one more table leaf.
