PAYING THE CONTRACTORS.
Important Session at the Everett House
for the Settlement Of Unsatishcd City

The third session OF the Commission appointed
by an act of the recent Legislature was held last
evening at the Everett House. The Commission
has been called into existence under the powers OF
the act chapter $780, for the purpose Of paying the
claims Of contractors who have done work for the
city, amounting to about 81, 900 000 in laying down
sewers, pavements, &c. 1t was alleged by the
Comptroller that these contracts had been made
without conforming to the requirements OF the law
and hence he has refused to grant warrants author
izing the payment; thus the contractors have been
unable to receive any money In connection with
these contract for eight months past. The commits
sion Is composed of exJudges Sutherland and Van
Worst and Counsellor Joyce. The act provides for
clerk to the commission, and Mr.. Williams q men,
Der of the Legislature and of the Commit
the rate Of ten dollars per day. The
at the sessions by Deputy Comptroller Storrs Mr.
Justin Storrs and the legal adviser TO the Depart
ment, Mr.. Strahan, whose zeal In seeing that no
fraud Is committed upon the city excited little
vocalized sparrng between the contractors and
himself, which now and then was very amusing
and very spirited. About seveuty-6ve claims have
already been passed upon, and as the act states
that 'the decision OF the Commission shall be final
ana conclusive this complicated question viii
speedily be decided 10 the satisfaction OF all the
parties concerned.

REV, FATHER BURKE AND CATHOLIC EDU'
CATION

The well-known and popular Dominican Friar,
Father Burke delivers lecture this evening In Sc.
PETERS church, Barclay street. on catholic Educa-
t,on.u This subject is at present evoking great
deaf OF interest. Some are In favor OF what are
called sectarian or UNCONVENTIONAL schools, while
others, and perhaps ths larger number, are OPP
Gates of thc purely secular system, "a
it now largely prevails In most Of the
States This question finds Its way each year
10 the halls OF the Legislature, provokes the most
animated debates and returns to the people with
out any satisfactory solution. II Rev. Dr. Burke
can show us some safe mode OF conciating con-
melting interests and doing injustice 10 none In his
discussion or this question his lecture will be profit
able and timely. II, however, he Is unable TO do
this, he may please his coreligionists for the mo-
ment but not certainly the general public.
