The day eras full of sensations, and the rdlmsx era a reached when Huperin taiSmt Byrnea announced that he had tendered his resignation from the police fore*. The announcement came at the conclusion of a aerie* of question* by •Mr. Goff aa to disagreements betweeu Mr. Byrnea and the police board. Mr. Goff asked: . "Have there been any occasion* In which any of the police oommlssloncro jnterofer dwith you jvKardta* your ordvid t» tbo captain* In the election of 1892?" "There was a serious difference of opinion." The witness said that pr-sld-nt Mar tin aatme lo the meotln* of the cap-' tain* and nude a speech to the men regarding their election duties. “I did not Ilka what ho raid, as I thought I bod explained mtynWlf anJUxtactorfly.

HOW HE GOT ins MONEY. Preceding this, a searching examina tion as to tvow muvh he wue worm and how he acquired hid fortune waa made. H* said he was worth in real relate nod personal properly J3M.OOO, all exoantlng a t«w thousand doUars acquired In stock spsouMJons. Jay Gould had made 1130.000 for him. and since Jay Gould's death hi* son Georgs had added 113,000 to llyrnes' wealth, die started from a small be ginning. and from hi* saving* and a Mmatl Inheritance received to Utl sffd HAD made for him by Commodore YunilcrbSt. Byrne* found hlseU In 1U0 w>wrt> 111,000. to 130.000. Vanderbilt had tovestsd 12.1X4 tor hhn aud returned W.000. Byrne* had gained Jay Gould's good will by ridding him of a wnter of threatening letters. Gould tendered Byrne* a girt of money, which was d*chaed. anortly afterward, Gould of- fC"d to buy stocks and bold them fur nyram. and Byrne* gar* Gould 110.000 to nperat* upon.

He said: • I had opportunities as superintend ent of police for earning the gratitude of men who could give me valuable information on stocks." "Is It not strange where you simply perfumed your duty as a police official such remarkable result* should fol low?" "No, sir." FRIENDLY TOWARD THE DOCTOR Questioned as to Dr. Farkhuret: "I have nothlne but friendly feeilnga for the doctor and hla sotffety. Al though he haa pounded mo to every way pawilWe, Dr. mrkbursi has cre ated a public spirit in the city, with- ‘out which the reforms could not have been effected." The superintendent said be knew that when he wit* promoted corruption prevailed in the police department. "Nothing went by merit." said he. Everything was either by political In fluence or through paying money for promotion. To Dr. Parkhurat i» due chiefly the credit of cron ting tbo healthy feeling we see today. No ono man could bring tills reform about. I myself did a little toward that end. I drove the keepers of disorderly houses from place to place and kept them on the run. I made It possible for this committee to get evidence. There was loud applause as he con cluded this statement “is It a fact that but tor the efforts of Dr. Parkhurst and tho committee the corruption would have still existed? "I oojild not have stayed It akme. "Had you the power?" "No. sir." The superintendent said he could not detail men without the consent of the commi salonen*. . Hut It was Martin and Sheehan who twtlfled you were the executive head? "I could not df'tntt a single officer without the consent of the board. If a mati on Broad way a rrima I could not H^nd hton uf> If I had adequate powers and the police force wmh In tho condltion. ported to ba then I would ho responsi ble." M'LAUOHUN'8 GAINS, lnspeotor McLaughlin was alas exam ined as to his gains. A'fA?” 1 ?" slons, Mr. Goff figured out that McLaugh lin Is worth 1133.0A but McLaughlin dis puted the correctnew of this conclusion, making the amount 11(8,000. McLaughlin stated that he mad* M*.000 out of a pat ent which h* had purdtasedJointly with his brother-in-law for lea* than *2,W, end had made the rest of hla money In real es tate speculations. 111. wife also, hs said was a Kucccwful builnew worrmn. As to the nature ot her *>«*»•• .ft* .‘“5X tor wiui very reticent and Goff intimated broadly that she was en*fa*«d In —curing appointmenti* on the bollco forco, lor which she rKelved pay. Capt. ltyan was put through tho cruel- bis also, but he seems to be the poorest of all the poilco captains, and be was not long detained. Capt. Martens did not produce his wife In oourt a* he had been directed to do, explaining thut she waa sick. Mr. Ool did not accept the explanation sa being made In good faith and he gave Marlene another aarcnatlc raking over. M BAKIN WAS ABSENT. • Capt. Meaklna waa called, but ho did not appear, and Mr. Goff aaid: "We triad to subpoena Capt. Mcakln laat night, but failed. He has been ac cused of being the chief protector ot the green goods men In this city. They fol lowed him nround from one precinct to. another to got his protection. Capt. Mea- kln haa also tho reputation of bolng the richest captain on tho force. Ho Uvea In a 125,000 house and three servants waif at hla door. I openly charge him with having pollcomen, catiientera and plumb- era working at his country house in Tar- rytownand at the same tlmo drawing their pay from the city. 1 also state that a wurdman of his who was In Bloomlng- dala suffering from paralysis drew hla pay every month." Tho proceedings closed with a long ad dress from Mr. Goff. He praised Mr. Mona and Mr. Travers Jerome for the assistance they had given him sad concluded b yeaying: •pu aaniuiunw aq: euojaq 'sou him t„ Journa, asks If then, in anybody who wishes to bo heard. If . there la let him come forward and not wait until we havo adjourned." Mr. Goff received a great cheer as he concluded. Chairman Lexow then remarked that the committee would fittingly thank Mr. Goff and hla colleagues when they got to Albany.

Not One, bat Several Train loads ot Grain Will lie Gent to Nebraska. MACON TAKE8 THE LEADING STEP Tha Gaorgl*Southern and Florida. Iloari Hake* (ha First Contribution, and That la » Car Load of Corn- Others Will Follow. Old Georgia Is the first state la tie Union to respond to the cry for help from far away, suffering, starving Ne braska, and within 'the next day or two a whole trsln load, and in all prob ability several train loads, of com and provisions will be flying over the rails to tho tor West All of the Southern roads will haul contributions free, bat It was left for the Georgia Southern and Florida to make the Aral donation. This dona tion is a carload of corn and will be sent as soon as directions where to ship can be received. Yesterday Receiver W. B. Sparks tel egraphed to <R. H. ‘Edmonds of the Manufacturers’ Record ab Baltimore, telling him ithrt the Georgia Southern would contribute a carload of com to the Nebraska sufferers and adtlng for directions where to send ft. The fol lowing is the reply received from Mr. Edmonds: “Baltimore, Md., Dec. 29.—Sir. W. B. Sparks, Receiver Georgia Southern and Florida Railroad—Yours la first contribution. Will advise a» to ship ment later. R. B. Edmonds." Thus it will ibe seen that Georgia and Macon make the first contribution to the Nebraska sufferers, and it will be no surprise if Macon alone sends a whole train load ot grain. It would be Just like iMaoon to do It, and by each wholesale denier In grain making a small contribution it could be easily done. Yesterday a Telegraph reporter incidentally spoke of! tint Georgia Southern’s contribution In the presence of a firm of leading brokers, and both members of file firm immediately said they would make a contribution of corn. Macon is not rich, but she Is fortunate in being populated by a generous- hearted people, who aro always ready to divide with those in distress, no mat ter if they are far away, when tho cry of ’dlstrows roaches their oars till sec tional lines aro obliterated : 'atad they know no north, no cast, no-bveat, no south. ' f ? Tho following circular has' been Is sued by the Georgia Southern and Is now being sent out along the lino of road: For Suffering Nebraska—Contribu tions of Corn and Meet Solicited.—lu view of tho groat destitution reported from Nebraska because of tha almost total failure of the com crop, tho main dependence of tho state, it has been suggested that the South contribute a solid train of corn and nicut. und ship It to Nebraska', to bo distributed among those In distress. Nothing that the South could do would do more to cement the feelings of friendship between tho South and tho North, and nothlug dlse would so impriws the country with the blessings that tho South enjoys in tho abundance of Its supply of grain and provisions. It would also be a fitting recognition of the generosity sEawn by the people of the North to 'the South to its days of distress. The section traversed by tho.Georgia Southern snd Florida railway lias been blessed this year with un abundant crop of corn and lto meat houses aro well filled. Believing that the people along Its Hue will gladly avail them selves of an opportunity to contribute from their abundance to ullovlatb the dire distress of those In tho Northwest, the management of tho Georgia South ern and Florida railroad offers to take charge of uR contributions and see that they ore transported and delivered to llio proper parties for didtrbution. A11 contributions can be left with our agents at any tlmo before Tbupday, January 10, 1S95, on which day a oar will tie sent along the I nc to take up contributions. Wo earnestly urge upon every one to contribute someihing to this worthy ob ject, no matter how little. A bushel of corn or u aide of bacon can easily be spared from your abundance, and such a contribution by every ono along tho line nvouid alleviate tho distress of many families. Lot us show to the world that wo appreciate our blessings, and with genuine Southern hospitality stand ready to aharo thorn with our less fortunate neighbor's. J- Lane, General Manager. W. L. Glessner, Commissioner of Immigration. The Telegraph Is Informed that tho Macon and Northern Is getting out a similar circular sad will ship all con tributions free. THE STATE AROUSED.
