mittee «>f the Sorlety for the FrevetHlon
of Cilnje-The Senate Commute# Charg-
ed with Favoritism—Senator Lexow will
Reply—Farkhnret will Continue the
Investigation.
New York, Deo. 31—Jamei J. Mar-
tin, president of the board of police,
will resign in a few days. lie made
this announcement just after his ar-
rival at his office at police headquar-
ters today. These ere President Mar
tln’is words: "I have read the evidence
by Superintendent Byrnes before the
investigating committee of Saturday,
as well as his interview given the
newspapers. I have no desire to enter
into a controversy with the superln
tendent. My official acts have been
under investigation for a year. I am
wiiliog to stand on the result of the
investigation. As my friends know, I
nare been anxious to retlie from the
department for some time This has
lever been a congenial piace forme
end my resignation will, in a few days,
be in he mayoi’s hands. Now the in
vcstlgatlou is over and 1 am r o longer
tinder fire I feel I am justified in re-
signing and I hope Mr. sjtroug will ao
cept it at once when ho gees into
office.” __
ParkuurAt. m-n ih» Police.
New York, Deo 31 -Police Superin-
tendent Byrnes’ appearance be ore the
Lexow committee and his offer to
Mayor-elect SiroDg to rosign, and
accompanying a tender of his servioe
in re organizing the poltoe foroe are
variously received. Dr. Parkhuret
has Intimated the inquisition when
Byrnes w«9 upon the stand was not
made sufficiently searching for prao
tloal purposes. Parkhuret insists
Byrnes i-> responsible for most of the
corruption exposed by the senate com-
mittee and is indignant over the polloe
captain’s pompous vanity and self
glorification, as ho torm.d it. Mayor
elect StroDg is said to hold Byrnes in
high estimation and would be inollned
to orgs the withdrawal of the superln
tendent’s reiignation were it not for
Ms reluotacos to antagonize the
Parkhurst eco!«ty.
It is known that Messrs. Larogne,
Smith, Taylor and Good, the govern-
ment element of the committee of
seventy, entertain a oordial dislike for
the superintendent. Superintendent
Byrnes has given out this statement.
“In my examination before the
Lexow committee Sa'urday, when I
referred to the police commissioners
interfering with ms, I said I did not
intend to inolade the present members
of the board. Slnoe the latter have
become oommlusioners, they done
everything to assist me and have made
it possible for me to take some aotions
which I bad hitherto been unable to
take.”
General Karan, the newest member
of the police board of commissioners
and a Republican, said today the board
had not hampered Superintendent
Byrnes during the period be had been
a member. (Jommlsslouer Kerwin also
said he had no knowledge of the sup
erintendant’s • application for retire
ment and the recommendation of the
Lexow ooramlttue for the retirement
of Captain Creadon could not in the
least affect his opinion.
Be sure and name y nr brand. Don’t
ask for baking powder simply, ask for
Dr. Price’s, or write your order.
paiklinrel’i Hin'vmcnt.
New York, Deo. 31—Mr. Parkhurst
tonight gave out the subjoined state-
ment, at er it had boen read before
the executive committee of the sooloty
for the prevention of vice and endorsed
by that body:
“In stating my position touohlng
certain questions now lylug before the
pubiio mind, 1 cannot, express myself
too appreciative of the splendid work
that has been done by the senate com
mittee and its talented counsel. There
has been orea'ed throughout their in-
strnmentality an epoch in the history
of our city aud there has been avenred
at the polls a municipal revolution
that would have been impossible except
through their agency, or the agency of
a similar kind. And it is but just that
we go furt her than this and recognize
the work of this oommtttee and of its
counsel as being tho infiuer.ee which is
contributing very largely to elm liar
municipal upheavals throughout tbs
entire country. Mr. Lsxow’s commit
tee, Mr, G,;ff and hlo associates do not
stand in need of onr commendation,
but it is a pleasure, as well os a duty,
tonoorrdond it is accorded with car
ns*t cordiality.
“It may be furthermore promised
that any slrioturee that wo may feel It
ueosetary to pass me prompted by no
spirit of animosity toward any man or
any association of men. The personal
element does not enter into the ques-
tion with us. There is a partioular
line whioh our society has laid down
for itself and partioular ends whioh
have been for a considerable time
prosecuted and in all our efforts per
sonallties aro mere an incident.
“If the readers of this statement will
put themselves to pains of recalling
what transpired last spring they will
remember that at that time the writer
of this statement, and a few aseooiated
with him were the only ones who be
lteved in the honesty of purpose of the
oommtttee.
“The newspapers were almost a unit
iu their oonviotlon that to rely on Mr.
Lexow and hie colleagues for our
municipal deliverance was to lean upon
a broken reed. I remember very well
saying to Mr. Lexow at Albany in the
presence of ail his associates that I bad
just come from New York where the
entire atmosphere was pervaded with
utter disgust of him and all the mem
bers of his committee. I beoame con-
vinced however, by my personal asso-
ciation with Mr. Lexow, Mr. Bradlyand
two or three of their oolleagues that
the committee oould be counted upon
to do honest and faithful and thorough
work clear up to the end. 1 gave to
them my entire oonfideDoe; I used my
besk efforts to break down the spirit of
distrust which prevailed, and, In oon
junction wlthjthe other members of the
executive committee of the soolety for
the prevention of orlme, put at the
service of the senators the entire re-
sources of our office and they have
been availing themselves of these re
sources op to Saturday ulgbt last. We
have watched tho actions of tbe oom-
mittee with honest aud unqualified
assurance They have bored into the
rotten tissue of the police department
with utter Indifference as to the
character, political or otherwise of what
they struck
“Kuowing their report would have
to be reud*red the first of the new
year, we too become a little solloituous
lest they were not allowing sufficient
time for examining their officials, but 1
supposed they knew what they were
about and they would not do anything
that would even look like stopping
their work without finishing it. Mat-
ters had been for so long a time con
dacted In the entire thoroughness that
we had even forgotten we had ever
been distrustful, but late in November
tbe indications were dear that the in-
vestigation was not to be pushed to its
close in tba seme energetio and un-
sparing manner that had been follow-
ed up to that date.
“In vlswof all this, wo are justified
in saying that while the oommtttee
stood' up to the rack maguifioently
through all the other portions of tbe
Investigations they flinched at the
crisis. As long ego as when Mr. Moss
undertook to adduce evidence against
Mr. Byrnes in a direct manner, the in
vastigatlon committee sprang to
Byrnes’ assistance. Now is that not a
thing to do debated?”
Dyspeptics, naturally enongh, are
afraid of hot cake, biscuit, pastry, pie

Whet Will Foster Do ?
Washington, Deo. 31—Speculation
in diplomatic oirolos is active regard-
ing the capacity in which General
Foster will figure in the negotiations
between the two belligerent powers
It is thought unlikely he will take
pare in the conference, as to do so he
mast be appointed by China as a
plenipotentiary anddorbtis expressed
whether under international usages or
foreign he could be appointed to a con-
ference for either nation. If not com-
missioned as plenipotentiary, be might
he present at the negotiations in a
subordinate capacity, but it is doubted
whether a diplomat who has been
secre'ary of state and United States
minister to a foreign Datlon would
care to play an inferior part. No In-
formation has been received at the
Chinese legation regarding the em
paror’s action In depriving Li Hung
Chang of military authority and
superseding him in command by Liu
Hud Yl, viceroy of Sian lvlang.

Washington, Deo 31—Owing to mis-
apprehensions caused by the publica-
tion of statements that the deoree
concerning secret societies was to be
submitted to bishops in order to secure
from them their opinions thereon,
Monsignor Sakolli authorizes the
Associated Press to make the following
brief statement:
Tbe archbishops of the United States
have taken counsel with respeotto
three societies: The Odd Fellows, Sons
of Temperance and Knights of Py-
thias. The arohblshops decided the
whole question should be submitted to
the Apostolio See. In a communica-
tion from his eminence, Cardinal
Monaco, to Monslgnor Satolll the ao-
tion of the general congregation of
cardinals, to whom his holiness com-
mitted the question, was made known.
The congregation after considering
carefully tho matter made a deoree.
This decree his holiness fully con-
firmed end gave it complete effeot.
The deoree is, therefore, transmitted
to all archbishops, bishops and other
ordinaries in the United States to be
by them carried into sffeot. Mousigaor
Satoili has acted m»rely us the medium
cf transmission. But In view of the
contradictory and confusing reportswgggi
emanating from various parts of the's'.
country, the faota are thu9 briefly
stated. _

Knights of Pythias and JohaC. Barns,

ohaneellor RPohle said:
“The oknrch is able to take care of
its own business. The Knights are
able to run theirs. Wo do not propose
to run theirs nor will they be able to
interfere with us.”
The Weather la KoRluad.
London, Deo. 31—Tho weather is
very cold throughout Great Britain.
Ssvf-ral trains are 6nowod under in
Soociand. In Scotland the snowstorm
was accompanied by lightning. A ter-
rible gale is raging over South Dur-
ham aud another storm is sweeping the
coast of FiSEex, doiDg much damage in
the east and north of that oountry.
1'he sea is very high and much damage
has been done to shipping. Tbe gale
in the channel continues and lifeboats
at various points along tbe coast have
aooompll&htd most heroic rescues.
