Policeman Corcoran Overheard Making
Making a Threat to Sandbag Two
Witnesses Before the Lexow Com
mittee—An Iron Worker Claime to
Ha re Been Robbed by a Policeman.
Officials of the Force Enjoying the
Festivities of the French Ball.
New York, Oct. 10.—For the third time
since the Lexow investigation commenced
Chief Counsel Goff to-day produced evi
dence to show that threats have been
made to put an end to the witnesses who
have appeared before the senators con
ducting the examination.
Samuel Kaufman, a tailor's salesman,
was the first witness called during the
day. He gave the substance of a conver
sation which he claimed took place on an
elevated railroad train just after Police
man Corcoran left the witness stand Mon
day. Corcoran was alleged to have asser
ted that he would “make those witnesses
as dead as a door nail,” and would “lay
for them some dark night.” The witnes
ses supposed to be referred to were Quinn
and a friend. By those persons Corcoran
was accused of being a “clubber.” The
policeman with Corcoran had advised him
not to talk so loud, and told him to wait
until the Lexow committee had fihished
Its investigation before making the at
tempt.
Patrick Kelley, an iron worker, related
a story of going through his pockets. The
name of the officer he thought was Tho
row. He accused the policeman of ab
stracting 50 cents, but the officer only
laughed at him, and pushed him along
telling him to “move on.” lie reported the
matter to the police station and ho as
serts that a day or two after this he was
assaulted by the policeman, who finally
arrested him. Hp was fined $5 on the tes
timony of the police. Since the Lexow in
vestigations had commenced the captain
of the Eighty-eighth street station had
sent for him, he alleged, and told him that
there was a job waiting for him at the sta
tion. He did not go to see the captain
about the matter.
V. H. Brown, general agent of the
Cunard line, admitted that he had paid
$lO weekly to the officer in charge of the
Cunard wharf, but he claimed that he
bad never paid additional sums of money
to the police.
John H. Lemon, a young man who at
tended the French ball, testified that
Bupt. Byrnes and a number of police of
ficials were present at the ball. They did
not make any protest against the lewd
conduct of persons assembled there.
William H. Jamouneau, President of the
Alvin Manufacturing Company, testified
to paying Detective O'Connor SIOO for the
recovery of stolen goods from the pawn
brokers.
Vincent Majewski. who conducted a
policy shop, testified to the tribute ex
acted by the police. Majewski explained
that there were seventeen or eighteen
barkers in the city, and that they ar
ranged with the police for the territory
they should work. All the brokers ex
cept Cornelius B. Parker were in the
combine at the present time. He was
working alone, but was not allowed to
have many shops on the west side. Asked
who had the territory. Majewski replied,
A1 Adams, “The King.” Letters were
read which are alleged to have passed
between Majewski and Police Captain
Westervelt. In these letters there were
constant references to the dangers of
exposures by the newspapers. Majewski
was troubled by opposition policy shops
which did not pay tribute, and fake let
ters of complaint were mailed to Supt.
Byrnes, but no attention was paid to
the complaints. Majewski claimed that
four of the policy shops complained of
were still running.
The investigation closed for the day w ith
an examination of Lieber Freeman, who
claimed that he visited Silver Dollar
Smith to secure immunity from arrest for
his brother-in-law, Joseph Franke, a Hes
ter street saloon-keeper. A man named
Solomon claimed to represent Smith and
S2OO was finally paid to secure the release
of Franke from prison. The arrangement
was that Smith should find bail. The
money was raised by Max Rosensehmeig
and as Smith did not procure the hail as
arranged upon at first, Rosensehmeig has
brought suit in the city court to recover
S2OO.
GEORGIA’S JUDGES.
The Sixty-five Counties Heard From
Give a Majority for the Amendment.
Atlanta, Ga„ Oct. 10.—Secretary of State
Candler in the presence of Gov. Northen
began opening and consolidating the re
turns of last Wednesday's election for
members of the legislature to-day. It will
be to-morrow or the next day before the
count and consolidation is completed, but
so far as it has proceeded on the consti
tutional amendments, in 100 counties, the
amendment increasing the judges of the
supreme court, has about 4,000 majority.
The other two amendments are lost.
There is a good deal of confusion in the
returns, some counties sending the re
turns for governor, and state offices
which should have gone to the president
of the Senate, to the secretary of state,
while others sent both sets of returns ad
dressed to the secretary of state and still
others sent the returns for members of
the legislature to the president of the
Senate. When the consolidation is com
pleted an estimate of the total vote cast
for the state ticket can be made.
In the circuit of Judge George F. Gober,
who U one of the announced candidates
for the supreme bench, a fact that is sig
nificant, is that five counties, all so far
heard from, out of the eight in the cir
cuit, give the following heavy majorities
against the amendment: Cobb 835, Chero
kee 1,469, Fannin 679, Forsyth 1,391 and
Pickens 642, a total of 5,016.
BERRIEN SUPERIOR COURT.
A Large Attendance of Attorneys at
the Session at Nashville.
Alapaha, Ga., Oct. 10.—Superior court
convened at Nashville yesterday, Judge
Hansel presiding. There is a large attend
ance of attorneys from neighboring
counties.
Capt. Hamjnond of Thomasvllle, after
his arrival at Nashville, was stricken
with acute rheumatism, and had to
return home, which will cause
many Important cases to go over, as he is
one of the leading attorneys in the cir
cuit, and is generally employed in Im
portant cases.
The weather Is extremely bad, with
rain and wind all day and night, and worse
this morning which will no doubt cause a
short session of court, as Judge Hansel is
never very strong, and It would not be
prudent for him to be out much in such
weather.
To Buy in the Securities.
New York, Oct. 10,-The Richmond ter
minal re-organization committee is about
to go through the formality pursuant
to the plan u. re-organization, of selling
out the collateral held by it for the old
East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia's
floating debt in the same way as it re
cently sold out and bought in the collat
eral for the Richmond and Danville debt
The sale will take place Oct. 18. The secu
rltles will be bought in by the committee
n for the most part cancelled.
CONGRESSIONAL ELECTIONS.
The Managers Puzzling Over the Regis
tration Ia sue.
Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 10.—The question of
registration or no registration for the con
gressional election is causing a good deal
of thinking among the political leaders. It
will be discussed at length by the state
I executive committee at a special meeting
called for that purpose next Saturday, at
which all the democratic congressional
! nominees are expected to be present.
The populists do not want registration
and they are the cause of the present
complications. In the last congressional
election the populists in the Tenth dis
trict applied to Judge Emory Speer for
the appointment of federal supervisors it
the polls under the law governing federal
elections. Judge Speer granted the peti
tion and appointed the supervisors, but
he threw in an opinoin that it was uncon
stitutional to use the registration lists in
a federal election. The constitution of the
state provided that any man 21 years old
who had paid his taxes since the consti
tutional convention in 1877, and who had
resided in the state twelve months, and
the county six months, was entitled to
vote. The Judge ruled that the registra- i
tion laws were unconstitutional in a fed- I
eral election, as they were not
uniform, not general, applying
only' to counties, and being
different throughout the* state. The Tenth
district did not use registration lists, al- I
though they were used in all the other !
districts two years ago. But Dr. Felton i
has sprung the same question in the Sev- 1
enth, having applied to Judge Newman of
the southern district court for an opinion.
Judge Newman will not give an opinion
until the issue is regularly made in court,
which will very probably be done promptly
by the populist managers.
Any candidate who desires can bring it
before the jydge by declaring that he
fears a number of his friends, who are |
legally' entitled to vote, will he prevented j
from doing so on account of their names ,
being omitted from the registration list.
The judge would then be forced to de
clare the registration lists Illegal, or rule
that they were all right and that under
the law those omitted from the list were
not entitled to vote.
The danger in electing congressmen in
some districts under registration regula
tions and without it in others, arises from
the fact that one or the other might be
declared illegal, and the member he un
seated by the republicans, if they should
control the next house.

Only Four of the Order Absent From
the Conference.
Philadelphia, Pa.. Oct. 10.—The annual
conference of the archhishops of the Uni
ted States was held to-day in the resi
dence of Archbishop Ryan of this city.

men in all walks of life.
A VICTORY FOR SCALPERS.
Railroads Bound to Honor Tickets Un
less They Have Expired.
Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 10.— Judge Van Epps,
presiding in the city court to-day, made a
ruling which will cause much satisfaction
among ticket scalpers. He charged the
jury in the case of A. H. Lovejoy vs. the
Richmond and Danvillo ruilroad, being a
proceeding for damages for the refusal
of the defendant to accept a scalped tic
ket, that it made no difference whether a
ticket was presented by the original pur
chaser or not, the road was bound to ac
cept ft so long as Its limit had not ex
pired. Lovejoy was traveling from At
lanta to Washington on a ticket that had
been originally sold In Memphis. He
was given a verdict for *l5O.

THE MORNING NEWS: THURSDAY, OCTOBER 11, 1804.
BISHOP NELSON IN A TILT.
Vicar General Keiley Attacks Him for
Defending tbe A. P. A.
The Bishop's Card Brought Out by the
Recant Latter of Patrick Egan to the
National Republican Committee —The
Vicar General Expresses Himself as
Disgusted With the Very Littleness
of the Thing- He Also States a Few
Facts to “These Latter Day Political
Bigots.”
Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 10—The Roman Catho
lics of this city were greatly agitated to
day on account of a card published by
Bishop # Nelson, the official head of the
Episcopal church in Georgia, which was
published this morning, together with a
reply from Father Keiley, the vigar gen
eral of this diocese of the Roman church.
The card published by Bishop Nelson,
which is in defense of the American Pro
tective Association, was called forth by
the recent letter of Patrick Egan to the
national republican committee. The emi
nent prelate asserts that the association
which is now r creating such a furore is
founded on philosophical principles. He
asserts that the American Protective As
sociation movement has been aroused by
a failure on the part of the representa
tives of the people at Washington to do
their full duty. The bishop alleges that
the priests and potentates of the Roman
Catholic church are intolerant, and that
they are bigoted. He charges that the
nuns of the church are allowed to solicit
alms in the departments in Washington
when all ortier charitable organizations
are barred. He defends the American
Protective Association from first to last
as a society organized, not against the
state or nation, but to disrupt a deplorable
condition of things which he claims ex
ists and should be disturbed.
In replying to the bishop’s indorsement
of the American Protective Association
Father Keiley severely arraigns the pre
late of the Episcopal church. He states
that the bishop was welcomed in Atlanta
as a stranger who came hither as a mes
senger of peace and good will. To the
contrary, he has sent out to the world,
with all the weight attaching to his official
position, a defense and Justification of the
American Protective Association.
In conclusion the vicar general says: “I
am disgusted with the very littleness of
this thing. I grow impatient whenever I
think of it. I am now a Catljolic. By
birth, education, belief, I am protestont. I
am not called upon to defend the Catholic
church. But I believe in fair play and
honorable dealing, and this I will say to
these latter-day political bigots who
would make aliens of thousands in their
native land because of their religious con
victions, that many of the most illus
trious names in American history were
communicants of the Catholic church.
To blot their achievements from our his
tory would be to many of its
brightest pagres and disfigure it almost be
yond recognition. This efusade against
a large class of our citizens—as intelli
gent, enterprising, moral and reputable
as any—because of their ohurch affiliation
is an unspeakable disgrace to our civiliza
tion.”
Asa general thing, Father Kelley’s
statements are endorsed, and Bishop Nel
son, in the phrase of the street, has been
roundly roasted for voluntarily taking up
the fight of the American Protective As
sociation.

HINDOO JUGGLERY.
Feats Performed by Adepts Apparently
Transoendlng Natural Laws.
Dr. Hensoldt In the Chicago Record.
“I have seen many w’onderful things.
The three great miracles performed by
the adepts—the rope, the basket and the
mango tree exhibitions—l have seen many
times. They are all performed in broad
daylight and housands of people are usu
ally crowded around on all sides. I re
member once in particular, when 1 saw
the mango-tree miracle. A rishi appeared
about 2 o’clock in the afternoon in the
street of a town. Immediately hundreds
of persons surrounded him. He took a
mango and scratching a small hole in the
ground planted It. A few minutes later
a great tree more than sixty feet high
took form before me.
“It was complete in leaf, branch and
fruit, the only peculiar thing noticeable
about it was that when the wind blew
its leaves did not stir. In a pirit of in
vestigation I walked up to it and touched
it and took hold of some of the leaves.
It was apparently a real tree. To prove
it further I climbed up the trunk seven or
eight feet. Then I returned to my place
in the crowd. The adept sat down and
preached one of the most beautiful ser
mons I ever heard. It was a narrative
of the birth taleß of Buddha. When he
had finished I looked up and the great
tree was gone. On going forward I saw'
the rishi dig up the mango fruit and in
spite of all efforts to detain him he pressed
through the crowd and was gone.
“The rope miracle is still more wonder
ful. A rishi appears in the center of the
crowd In broad daylight with a rope in
his hand. He throws it into the air and
it remains standing upright as if it were
a pole. Then hand over hand he climbs
to the top of it. It has no visible means
of support at either end. When he
reaches the top the rope seems to
lengten upward into the sky, and the
rishi continues to climb until he disap
pears wholly from view, not to reappear.
Many of the adepts take this method
of leaving a crowd when they have finish
ed their sermons.
“The apparent suspension of the laws
of gravity is a common exhibition among
the fakirs. I have seen one of them take
his hand away from a coeoanut sheil
and leave it suspended in mid air. A
number of times I have taken hold of
it and tried to move it. but all in vain.
When the fakir gets ready he sometimes I
gives the word suddenly, the shell yields, ;
and the man who is tugging away on it
goes tumbling upon the ground.
“It *s my belief that the higher adepts
are missionaries and prophets to their
races. Some of their teachings are both
beautiful and equal to or beyond our
standards of morals.
“Now I have told all these wonderful
things without saying what I really
thought of them. I believe that the Hin
doos have come to a better and a truer
conclusion concerning life's mysteries
than we have with all our science. Our
advancement has only added to our ma
terial comforts—food, clothing and houses
to live in—but the Hindoo has something
better. He believes both in he past and
In the future. He has po fear of death,
because he believe* that it will only change
his form. His life is spent in the work
more and more behind the curtain and
deeper and deeper into life’s mysteries.
He Is satisfied and that is more than can
be said of any man in Europe or America.
Many r of the WQnderful miracles per
formed by the adepts, I believe, can be
explained in the terms of-'What we call
hypnotim—the power of mind over mind.
“What we know of hypnotism is yet
limited, but in the case of the Hindoos
the power is developed to a remarkable
degree. Now, I don’t believe that a rishi
made a mango tree grow f t n three minutes,
but I do believe that his power oVer the
minds of the spectators was, so great
that they all thought that the tree was
real. In fact, I go further. I believe.*
with Schopenhauer, that what we know
of the material world is only the creation
of the brain. Mind Is all and in all.”
BIRD RESERVATIONS.
Massachusetts ttj. Try the Experiment
of Introducing- Fine Birds.
From the Boston Herald.
The contemplated stocking of the Mid
dlesex B'ells reservation with the new
game bird, the Mongolian pheasant, sug
sests a minor but highly valuahlo service
which may he expected from the recent
establishment of the several large wood
land public reservations In the surround
ings of Boston. Here we have in the im
mediate neighborhood of our city several
thousand acres of public forest, destined
to become tnoro and more of a wilderness
as time goes on, over 2,000 acres in the
Middlesex Fells, 500 or 800 acres in the
Stony Brook woods, and 4,000 acres in the
Blue hills.
As the firing of a shot is not allowed in
all this extensive woodland territory
even the carrying of firearms being strict
ly prohibited the several reservations
will naturally soon become the best of
haunts and breeding grounds, not only
for the native species of game, but foV
various imported kinds, adaptable to our
climate and other local conditions. While
these regulations deprive sportsmen of
favorite ranging grounds, they neverthe
less welcome the change. For the reser
vations thus protected not only agaiust
the incursions of gunners, but with con
ditions made most favorable for animal
life by the prevention of the forest fires

the value to health of the pure liquid

Its excellence is due to its presenting

that have hitherto devastated them, will
become splendid reservoirs for game,
which will thence overflow into the
neighboring woodland country where
such restrictions are not imposed. This
will more than compensate our sportsmen
for their exclusion from their reserva
tions. Alive to the benefits thus to be
derived, the Massachusetts Fish and
Game Association has shown itself mosu
friendly to the policy of creating these
beautiful public domains. Three years
ago the association caused a colony of
grouse to be established in the Lynn
woods, and the experiment is said to be
very sucqjpsful.
Another great benefit that may confi
dently be looked for as a result of this
policy, is that derived from the encour
agement for all sorts of birds to make
their home in these woodlands, where,
free from danger of human molestation,
they will be likely to multiply to a very'
considerable degree. Many of the species
that feed on noxious insects cannot fail
to be among them. This fact will natu
rally be • highly advantageous to the im
portant horticultural and general agricul
tural interests in this part of the world.
