It is said that Tammany Hall and tho County Domocracy havo como to an under-standin- g in the Harlem judicial district. Jus- tice Honry P.

Cherished and defended as a ro. ligion, it manages to rvado law nnd defy justice. Tho bulwark of this Bystom is the Mormon hiorarchy. Thls'is a despotism within the Bcpubllo. It exacts from its mem- bers and victims an allegianco outranking that due to the National Government. The rellglo-civi- o Mormon Church is in reality inchoato rebellion.

Mr. Blalno has now been in Paris for two weeks, and many of his friends who havo socn him thoro, as well an many who met him in Germany, Aus. tria and Switzerland, havo lately passed through Loudon en routo to America. Thuro is somothing strango in tho feet that all of theso friends havo gained tho impression that Mr. Blainn does not desire to bo nnmi. nated for tho Presidency next year. Homo of them, indeed, put it that ho docs not intend to be a candidate If asked, how-ove- r, whethor they speak authoritivoly, theso gentlemen Invariably say \ no\ but still givo their Impression with great confidence. Whon asked, as many of thorn hud been, whether this nssumed intention of Mr. Blaino's originates from consideration of his health, they answor that such consideration is impossiblo, for Mr. Blalno is in better health and looks gayer than ho has for ten years. Nor do thoy infer that Mr. Blaino's position is hnsed upon any discouragement in tho political situation. It is well known by all who havo talked with him that Mr. Blaino regards tho prospect of llopublican success in 1888 as infinitely bettor than it appeared in 1881, when the defeat was so narrow. I stato these facts without coloring or with-o- ut speculation thereon, further than to say that such conclusions may bo taken with cau- tion so long as Mr. Blalno authorizes no pub. lie statement. But the fact remains, that all of Mr. Blaine's friends who have been in Eu- rope this summer carry home tho impression that the llopublican condidato of 1881 will not bo in tho field next year. MRS.

Mrs. James Brown Pottor came back from Europo yosterday Imbued with tho cxcollont idoa that \ actions, not words\ will best suit her purposes. Tho hackneyed utterances of transatlantic dramatic arrivals sho posithely scorned. Sho declined to gush auout tho door publia, did not nmko a point of tho fact that she was glad to bo back in America, and told no stories about tho Princo of Wales and tho English aristocracy. Tho only llttlo luxury sho allowed herself and it was an oxquisitoly pardonable, one was a description of tho costumes which sho will wear in \ Mile, do Bressier.\ Mrs. Pottor has what Worth would coll sundry \dreams\ in tho way of drosses, and as she was interested in thorn herself, sho rightly imagined that other people would llko to hear about them. Mrs. Potter declared that she had no inten- tion, whon sho went to Loudon, of starring in England. Sho was anxious to socuro an engagement in tho stock company of tho Hay-mark- et Theatre, for the sake of tho experi- ence It would givo hor.

' A Nrciio ol\ I\rltrnirnt In the Western Union Operntlns ltaoni. John Moffatt, ono of tho best known and most skilful olectrioions in tho operating de- partment of tho Western Union office, 105 Broadway, had a onconuter with a dynamo buttory lost Friday which ho will remember as long as ho lives. IIu was engaged In testing ono of tho loops which runs from tho main office, in Broad street, and had occasion to use u dynamo bat. tery. Mr. Moffatt went hohiii-- th switch-boar- d to handle the Ires n r elec trician was directed to put ci dvnnmo. X moment later thero was an awful yell from behind the switchboard, and the 000 em- ployees in the room thought their day had come. Help went quickly to tho creaming Mr. Moffat, who had a ground wire in ono bund nnd tho dynamo wlro in the other and was unable, to let go of either. Tho hucoud elec- trician had connected tho powerful battery boforo Mr. Moffatt was ready, and, aside from tho turriflo shock, ho now carries around two badly burned hands, the electricity having passed into ono hand, thlough tho body and out the other hand, burning tho tlesh wherever the wlro touched it, Had Mr. Moffat been nfllloted with any cardiac trouble the shock would havo killed him.

President French and Henry Cleorsje Think the Democrats WMI HafTer Most. President Stephen B. French, of tho Board of Police, is an intenso partisan Republican, and novcr falls to score a point for his politi- cal frionds when ho can. To an Evemiho World reporter he said yesterday: \Tho Republicans will carry this State this fall as sure ns my name is Frenoh. Evory report received shows that tho pooplo aro ripe lor a chutigo, and tho division In the Domocratic ranks by a separate labor party will add greatly to tho Republican majority.\ \ Wlioro do you place the Labor voto ?\ \ Tho Lobor voto in Now York and Brook-ly- n alono will reach 100,000, in my opinion,\ Mr. French said exultantly, \ and that will givo tho Republicans tho State.\ \ How much of tho Labor vote will come from the Republicans r\ \Not over 15 per cent., or 15,000, ns against 85,000 drawn from the Democrats. I am not prepared to say how largo the Labor voto will bo in tho Sttito, but it will be heavy in all tho largo citios. Tho Frohibf. tlon voto in this Stato will bo about 60,000 so that It Ik easily seen that the bulk of tho loss will fall upon the Democrats. This assures tho Stato to tho Republicans. It will be tho first gun for 1898 and menus the election of a Republican President. Who our candidate will lie I am not prepared to say. but unless all signs full Junius G. Blalno will bo tho man.\ After this bit of political wisdom,, Mr. French was ready to attend to police busiuebs on a strictly \ n \ basis. Whon an Evenino Wobld reporter asked Henry George this morning what ho thought his voto would bo, Mr. Georgo pulled out tho '250 watch voted to him at tho y Fair, mid bald that he would have to be brief, as ho w as in an awful hurry. \ I am not a good gneBser,\ ho continued, \ but I think tho lowest figure for tho United Labor party will he 200,000, and I beliovo it will reach 300,000. Wherovor I havo spoken, I have received the attention of everybody, especially tho farmers. Tho peo- ple aro ready for a change, Tho old party lines aro down, and tho people want some- thing new. ' Who will bo the next Bocrotary of State?\ \ Henry Georgo or Col. Frod Grant. I do not beliovo tho Democracy lias a ghost of a chauvo in tho coming electidh. Our voto will como very largely from tho Democrats.\ Mr. Georgo then hurried awoy to cotch a train. Ho will speak this week at Albany, Poughkcepsie, Yonkers uud other cities. His debate with Mr. Shevitch will take placo next Sunday evening. It has been proposed that tho Anti-Povcr- Society forego its meet- ing on that night, and the debate tako plaoe in tho Academy of Music. Mr. Shevitch favors this arrangement, and it is believed that Mr. Georgo will. AS OTHERS SEE US. What Ihn World's Itrlght HxrhauKes Aro Saying of the livening Paper. tyom tht poeh.

Ten Jmllees of the Chll District Courts to be Chosen nt the Coining l'.lrctlon The ODsrcs to he Untried Off by Tauimnny If sail and the County Democracy Who Are Most l.tkcly to Draw the Prizes. nnd poor nliko to the Civil Dis. courts for their rights. They aro, over, better known courts of tho xvhero many of poverty, oppression and tlOH aro doily landlords told. to theso courts tenants, and somo evictions are as us thoso on tho other of tho ocean. Tho umituro and effects of an unfortufiuto ten- ant of a rear, top floor, six-sto- barracks, are placed on tho sidewalk and then carted to tho Corporation Yard, while a poor sow. ing girl who has obtained a judgment against a dishonest nnd unfeeling employer will havo hor decroe entered in a great big book, and hor employer will hide his indebt- edness behind a fraudulent assignment. If thoro should bo any jubtico disponsod in this olty.it should be in theso courts.whoro tho poorer people have to appeal for their rights and their wages. Thoy aro people who know llttlo of the meshes of tho law and who, above all others, need the protection that tho law gives. Tho justices of the Civil District courts, therefore, should bo men who would reoognizo tho right in rags as against tho wrong in silks or broadcloth. Thero are eleven of these petty but impor- tant tribunals scattcrod throughout tho city, and politics has a grip on nearly every one of them. The Justice may bo kind-hearte- an honest law-giv- and may try to meto ont mercy with iiis decrees, but the fact remains that politics is there jubt the same. Tho lowest of politicians hung around the court rooms to rob poor people who come to ask for justice. Clerks who owe their appoint- ment to maohine influence aro over ready to make overcharges, while burly and greedy city marshals, with red faces and stony hearts, are always in a hurry to throw the household goods of n poor widow out of windows for of rent. It must bo said, howover, that a few of the justices do all In their power to prevent subordinates from extorting blood-mono- y from thoso who enter tho portals of tho courts. At the coming election ton civil justices are to bo chosen. Thoro will be no election in the Tenth District, Twenty-thir- d and Twenty.fourth Wards, as Justlco Andrew Jookson Rogers was recently elected for a term thot does not expiro for somo years. Successors aro to bo elected to Civil Justices Michael Norton, Charles M. Clancy, George W. Parker, Alfred SUjcklor, John Henry McCarthy, William II. Kelly, Ambroso Mouell, Frodcrick G. Gednoy. Henry P. McGown and Leo 0. Dessar. They are all candidates for renomtnation and with the possible exception of Justice Parker, who 1b oqed and who is weary of tho duties of the position There are also hoBts of candidates in each of the judicial districts who are striving for tho justiceship. Lawyers with small prac- tices but plenty of political influence aro the most untiring in their effortB to bo made jus- tices of the courts of the poor. From tho pres- ent appearance of things the civil justice- ships aro to bo rollled off in tho harmony pro- ceedings between Tammany Hall and the County Democracy. The judicial districts aro for the most part the same as tho Sena- torial districts. If Tammany Hall is awarded tho united nomination for Senator in a dis- trict tho County Democracy will probably name the candidato for Civil Justice in tho samo political borough, Michael Norton is the present Justico of tho First District Court, which comprises tho First and Fifth Assembly districts. Ho xvns elected as a County Democracy man, but ho is now the Tammany Hall leader of tho Fifth Assembly District. Ho will be renominated. Frank Fitrgorold, son of the late James Fitzgerald, is an aspirant for tho bench. Ho is a of James Walsh, nephew of Warden Tom Walsh. Tho Second District tnkes. in tho Socoud and Third Assembly districts, nnd Justioo Charles M. Clancy, Taminnny Hull, wants another term of six years ut tyil.OOO per an- num. Thou Warden Walbli would like to heo his nophow take Clancy's place. James Oliver would accept any nom- ination thut ho thought would result in his being called a judge. \ I uni tirod of being called Jimmy,\ suvs Oliver. The next Justico of Iho Third District Court will probably secure his election by a deal within his pnrt,v organization, (leofgo B. Deuno, jr., of tho Ninth Assembly District, has been nu Assoiiiblyman nnd an Alderman. So bus his father. Now. George U. Dump, jr., is slul d to succeed Justico Georgo W. l'urkcv.

The sluta is Fiio Commissioner Cornelius Van Cott, of the Seventh Assembly District, for Senator in Gibbs'H old hunting ground, nnd young Deuno, of thu Ninth District, forjudge. Tho Seventh and Ninth nominate the Judge, and the Sox enth. Ninth nnd Thirteenth the Sen- ator. The judicial district is n Republican stronghold. The Fourth District is a lurgn German dis. trict, which six years ago elected Alfied Sleekier n Justico against nil mucinous uud combinations. It includes the Tenth uud Seventeenth wards, or thu Eighth, Tenth and ' Fourteenth Assembly districts. Justico Sleekier has no opposition for os.- - cept fiom John J. O'Hricn nnd Police Jus. tico Jacob M. Patterson mid the Republican machines behind (hem. The iudiptiideutt,, ' various trades and workingmen's tiuious have iiomiimted Justico Steckler and he is to re-- j ceivo tho indorsement and union nomination fiom Tammuny Hull and the County Democ- racy. Police Justico Patterson uud John J. O'Brien will probably run Hepty C. Botty, a machine Republican politician and lawyer, ngninst Steckler. Bets nre being made that Sleekier will havo 0,000 votes to sparo niter the returns uro counted. Thrio promises to be Rome fun in the Fifth District, xv hich is composed of tho Seventh, Kleviulh and Thirteniih wnrds. If Senator Edward V, Reilly, Tnummnv Hull, is renom- inated the Civil Justin ship, on the union deal, will go to the County Demoeruey. John Henry McCntthv, who now liniiilb down ile. lisions in Clinton struct, is not identified with either urgnniulioii. He is likely to bo shunted out.

While he lay on a bench in tho roar room Police Surgoon Luoien Damainvillo was sent for.
