greens in East Brooklyn, early yesterday afternoon
The services OF a clergyman were dispensed with
both at the house and the grave. Bolonder, though
not a regular attendant at church, was an adherent
to the Roman Catholic faith, and 1t was intended at
first to have mass said over his remains. Accord
ing TO the statement Of Mr.. Slauson, the employer
of Bolender, who made arrangements for the
funeral priest refused to perform the services
without fee of $25. as the BODY, was to be in
tered In a Protestant burial ground, In pursuance
of a request made by Mr. Boender. 1t was then de-
c1ded to have no religious services. The body was
removed from the house by the undertaken nearly
two hours before the time for the funeral in order
to avoid the crowd which IL was expected would
assemble Notwithstanding this the narrow street
was densey packed with persons living Ill the I'M
mediate neighborhoOd, and the passage of the
street cars was for some minutes INSTRUCTED.
Among those present at the house were a brother,
and half brother of Bolender who. with ms own
family, were the only Immediate relatives he bad In

FOURTH AVENUE ROAD ABANDONED.


The Rapid Transit Commissioners sent to Mayor
Cooper on Saturday their supplementary report,
synopsis of which was published in HE TRIBUNE
one week ago. Accompanying the report was let
ter stating that the Commissioners had
assurances that the stock in the COM
panies to be formed to construct the
RAILWAYS on the routes north of the Harlem River
will be taken up as soon as the subscription books
are opened. The letter further says that the Com
missiOners have become satisfied that the "only
parties who can comply with the conditions pre-
scrbcd for the route down Fourth-ave. do not IN
tend to avail of it. and that they are without evil
dence that any such arrangement can be made with
Mr. Vanderbilt by other PERSONS therefore they have
concluded to abandon that route good deal OF
indignation has been expressed that rapid translt
for the new wards should be defeated
by the action of the commissioners In locat-
ing routes below the Harlem River. An effort
is being made to get the Board of Aldermen to re-
consider its recent action this matter with the
object of getting its approval for the routes In the
new wards, Having once refused TO reconsider Its
action. It is thought there is no legal way to over
come the difficulty.

that Boutelle, ofthe Republican Com

that the Democratic managers have
been secretly substituting altered and
amended election returns, contrary to
law. The Constitution and laws re-
quire that returns sent to the Secreta-
ny OF State by a town clerk shall be

Oft certain Democratic town in one
Of the threatened counties forward
ed his return Immediately after
the election, in precise accordance
with his record. AS late as the second
week of November this clerk was in
formed by other town officers that a
prominent Democrat required a new
return to be made. as there was some
trouble with the returns from that and
other Democratic towns. The clerk,
it is asserted, did make a new return,
which was forwarded about the mid
die of November, in which he cor
rected the errors aud supplied the
omissions complained of, although the
town record shows them Just as they
appeared in the original returns.
