(Journal Special SrrTlea.) New' York. Nov. 21. Tim next msg nlflcent public building to be erected In New York Cltv will be a courthouse coating $26,000,000. The lt will prob ably bo on Mulberry Bend Park. a lte convenient to tho city hall and midway between the Brooklyn and Williamsburg bridges. The building will be an enor mous affair, planned and built with ao idea of furnishing ifflcient court apace for a city three times the alia or the present one. Vow York's Orowth. At the present rats It will not be long before New York will have a population as largo as that of London, for this city seems to b growing much faster than Its English rival. Tho population Is gradually approaching the 4.000.000 mark, and of the S.71S.0S people record ed In tho health-department estimate. 1.211.67 live In Brooklyn. The others are scattered in Now York City and other boroughs. Whea Tammany Boles. Despite the fact that Tammany will be In control for the next two years, there Is a growing hope that Kew York will hare a fairly respectable city gov ernment Even at tts worst an improve ment over the Van Wyck administration Is assured. Tammany paid dear fur the flagrant crimes of that regime, and men close to Leader Murphy assert that the ' latter will not rick another popular up rising by a repetition of the baleful ex cesses of tho Van Wyck rule. Another deterrent to license and open Corruption Is Murphy's ambition to attain a cora- . mandlng position. In national pontics. Water-Color Club. An Important event In art circles will bo tho opening of the 14th annual ex hibition of the New York Water-Color club at the galleries of the American Fine Arts society this afternoon. The exhibition will continue until December 13, and many handsome original water colors and pastels never before publicly exhibited In New York have been re-1"! celved to form the largest and best dis play that has been known In the history of tho society. Primaries Best Monday. The primaries for the election of a city committee of the Cltlsens' union will, be held Monday night next, and po litical gossips have It that R. Fulton Cutting, whose work among the fuslon Ists has been so conspicuous In this city, will retire from the presidency of tho union. There Is no doubt '.lat the members of tho organization would be glad to re-elect Mr. Cutting, but he Is aid to prefer being chosen chairman of an organization committee, which ho hopes will greatly extend the organlsa- tion throughout the city. The present suggestions for the head of tho union to succeed Mr. Cutting are Dr. Elgin R. lu Could, the present city chamberlain; Francis O. Huntington or Calvin Tomp kins, all of whom are Independent Dem ocrats. Tho present hope of this move ment Is that In time tho Republican party will be entirely superseded as a municipal quantity and that the union will be left alone as the antagonist of Tammany Halt. Tiro Island Ialst. Tho proposition that has been agitat ed for a long time by the entire south ern section of New Tork state Is the enlargement and deepening of the Fire Island Inlet with a stone breakwater guard. It la now very probable that congress will bo asked to make an ap propriation for a survey of the Inlet, to be followed by an allowance for tho con struction of the work.' It Is stated that the Inlet would make an .deal inside anchorage and harbor for ocean-going vessels. It would also offer a strategic haven for war vessels in times of need, and In many other wava prove advan tageous. Oreat Thanksg-lvln New York probably makes the greatest preparation for Thanksgiving of any city In the country. Almost without excep tion elaborate services are preparod for the various churches throughout the city and apart from these services the com mittees for the relief of the poor make great provisions for these unfortunates who have no means of getting a good Tbanknclving dinner. Besides the churches there are the feasts given the poor by the Salvation 'army, the Charity Organisation society and other phllan thrnplc Institutions, and then prlvat wealthy individuals supply a large num ber of poor families with Thanksgtvln baskets. This year on account of the scarcity and Increased prloe of turkeys a great many chickens and ducks will l used Instead. Cranberries are on a sym pathetic strike with tho turkeys and it will take 15 cents to buy a quart of them here. The price Is 4 or 5 cents highs than last year ut this time. Increase of License. JOURNAL'S POPULARITY (Continued from Page One.) Salonmen are much excited over the report that licenses in Brooklyn una Manhattan will be Increased when the leglxlature meets. According to the ru mor the increase in Manhattan and Brooklyn will be to $3,000. Now the Brooklyn license Is I97B. while that of Manhattan Is 11,200. The reason for the expected Increase Is the heavy votu polled In favor of Improving the canals All up state people voteil "no" on the canal proportion, not caring to bear any of the expenea entailed. As soon as they learned that the proposition had been endorsed, they demanded that they be exempted from taxatldn. The only wsy by which this can be done is to make the saloonkeeper pay a higher fee for his license. Magnificent Churches. The churches are not behind the times In erecting magnificent new edifices in New York, and, comparatively speaking. keep good pace with the commercial buildings. Only last Sunday the hand some three quarter million Christian Scientist church at Central Park West and Ninety-sixth street was dedicated with elaborate ceremonies. On Novem ber J9 the new white marble building of St. Francis de Sale's Roman Catholtc church, which is also on Ninety-sixth street, will be dedicated. The new church has one of the most beautiful exteriors of any church building lately erected in New York. Aliens Beturnlnf. Much la heard about the swarms of aliens that pour into this port, but when the tide turns the other way. as It oo caslonally does. It Is hardly noticed Just now thousands of foreign born persons are, for various reasons, return ing to their native land. Football rushes and old time cavalry charges are noth ing to compare with the crowds that swarm around the piers of outgoing steamers. A decrease in the demand for labor Is said to be one of the causes of the present rush for Europe. State Constabulary. It is very probable that Republican politicians will make another attempt to pass a state constabulary act. placing tho control of the police forces of th larger cities of the state In the hands of a state superintendent, to be appointed by the governor. This is a favorite scheme of Senator T. C. Piatt, and he will control the next atate senate by one vote over and above the Democratic vote, strengthened by the three Republi can rebels, Senators Elsberg, Brackett and Brown. Football enthusiasts are busying their minds over the outcome of the contest between Yale and Harvard at their usual Thanksgiving game next Thursday. A large number of lovers of the gridiron will go from here to witness the game, besides the members of the Yale and Harvard clubs established In the city. Q.

General Young makes an urgent appeal for the re-establtsliment of canteens. He aaya he hesitates to take the matter up, be cause congress failed to take action' on heir re-establlshment, but he doesn't feel at liberty to Ignore the measure which Is unanimously advocated by of ficers having the best Interests of the army at heart, and their recommenda tions are entitled to close consideration. Oeneral Young says the canteens pro mote morality, sobriety and discipline. The report further Bays that the work of the general staff so far shows the wisdom of the authorities in prompt- ng the measure. Oeneral Young pays glowing tribute to the army of the Philippines, as both regulars and volun teers have shown remarkable efficiency. devotion, patience, forbearance and humanity throughout the entire cam paign in the Islands. He says under the circumstances, where the severest measures were Justified, officers and soldiers, both regulars and militia, showed forbearance to the utmost poa- ible limit, and that Instances of mis conduct were very rare and generally arose through misdirected seal. Under the new law the organized ml- ltia has attained a dignity and standing that they never had before. The grow- ng dignity and efficiency of the whole force is one of the most encouraging features, and Interest should-be taken to Tecommend that the coast army be lit creased on the lines suggested by Gen eral Chaffee. The report Invited atten tion to the necessity of Increasing the commutation for officers and soldiers, especially In the far East where the cost of living Is so high. cxnrxsB aoatwst jats.

The receiver, Frank B. Cole, ,was appointed upon Mr. Lewis' application, but the officere or the company have protested against the" appointment and la their brief made serious charges of erabessle ment and fraud against Colonel Lewis, at one time president of the company whlcn the courts have declared to be nothing but fraud from atart to finish. Colonel Lewis says In his answer, which covers 14 typewritten pages, that he never got one dollar of the com pany's money or property, that the com pany paid him for organising It and for about one year's services in Its behalf, 1.600 shares of stock and $760 In caali; that this covers everything he ever re ceived from the company; that tho 1759 cash waa paid him for aervlcea and ex penses in his trip to Washington, D. C, where he was engaged In pushing the company applications or patenta. Confusion of Affaire. Ha -states that his application for a receiver was caused by the confusion Into which the company's affairs had fallen after he resigned as president In October, 1902; that the recent decisions of tha couj-ts In favor of stockholders who wanted their money back would hajve resulted In swamping the company and that three different aets of officers were claiming the right to act and that one set, those now attacking Mr. Lewis' character, had bored Into the company's safe and were selling the company'a properties so that a judgment creditor had gotten out a restraining order to prevent them. In a brief filed by his attorneys, "Jim Ham" Lewis goes on record a beng willing to forfeit his license as an at torney If the defendants' charges sre rue, and challenges the attorney for the defense to a like fate if the charges are proven untrue and made In pure wan tonness to Injure tha colonel's char acter.
