CHICAGO, May 24.-The indications are that the
refunding- certificate sale at the ub-Treasury is
run in the interest Of aclque, who share the prof
its, on 1.-THE inside OF the building. A lot Of kid-
goyed ladies' are daily served first to the exclusion
Of parties who have waited several hours for their
turn It is fine fun for these ladies' and their CO.
adjutors in the swindle to cheat the outside parties
out OF their rights, hut it is not so much
fun for parties on the outside who have
waited from 3 o'clock in tho morning
getting what they went for. Iwould suggest thnt
q pair pf stairs be erected on the outside OF the
building leading up to one of the windows OF the
Sub-Treasury. thence down again in the opposite
direction, that all parties be served at tno window,
and at no other place, thus removing all suspicion
OF favortisna. aud then il the police will arrange
the past two days at the Post Office, there will
then be show OF fair play.

with little more doing than the previous day, and
were weak in sympathy with decline Of SC per

Fullerton Avenue Conduit.
TO tho Editor Of The Tribune.

CHICAGO, May o4.-Win You hare the goodness
to inform the public, and particularly number OF
your subscribers living in the vicinity OF the North
Branch, why is it that now, the Fullerton avenue
conduit being finished. we should still be obliged
tosutfer this most intolerable nuisance!
For nearly two Yeats the conduit has been prac-
ticalfy finished, and, a1 the writer has been in
formed, only awaits the pumping works to COM
pl.te the job. Why can't this matter be done at
once and then let MS see whether the great under
ground ditch was constructed merely for a LOB, :"
or the purpose Of c1eansing the present filthy cess
and the houses nnd other pestlential factories
appear to along in their business operations.
Yet alas this miserable so~caed North Branch OF
the Chicago River is at standstill. with neither
run nor current NORTH BRANCH.

CHICAGO, May 24--About week ago wrote 3
letter 10 Mr.. SeaYcy, Superintendent OF Police.
requesting him to stop the ball-playing In the al
Icy north Of Haverly's Theatre, as it was ! uui-
sance and constant danger to the people passing.
AZ usual no attention Was paid to 1t. The fright
full accident by which o man lost his life to-day
was solely due to the neglect of the police author
tiles to stop the nuisance, even after their atten
ton had been especially called TO It. Respectfully,
ADOLF HEuE. l50 Dearborn street.
