Board by bidding at ridiculously low,
figure on work which, although in the

such contract costs more in the long run.

PALMEK'S DEFALCATIONS.
lie COnceals Halls Irregularities.

NEWARK, n. j., Dec. 81.
The mayor with several city officials, in
Guiding members of the finance committee,
visited the Jail this morning to confer with
Auditor Palmer concerning his defalcation
His counsel refused to permit an interv lew.
but the examiner of accounts who saw
Palmer stated that he denied having forged
signatures of mayor, clerk or city council,
but admitted he had deceived them in order
to obtain their signatures to warrants. Such
statements of claims as were necessary to OBJ
tain their signatures was concocted and after
ward destroyed. He protested that no one was
in collision with him. The city treasurer al
ways took his word and acted on his instruc-
tons and was deceived as other officials
were.
The examiner says there are other specu-
lations in the sinking fund interest, assess
ment deficiency and tax lease accounts, which
he has not examined sufficiently to state the
details. Palmer knew of Halls defalcation
in the comptrollers office, but concealed them
by manipulating the account to avoid discov-
cry. Holden presumes they knew too much
of each other for either to speak and Palmer
is represented as saying that he hoped legis-
latare would pess law to try all defaulters
by drum-head court martial and shoot them on
the spot.

THE SOUTH STREET FIRE.
Meeting Of the Board Of Underwriters.

New YORK, Dec. ~.
The Board of Fire Underwriters met this
afternoon to make arrangements to protect the
interests of the insurance companies in the
matter of the South street bonded warehouse
confagration, such action being necessary,
owing to the government refusing to allow
any of the damaged property to be removed
from the bond. Two committees were ap-
pointed to look after unidentified property
and confer with the government about the care
of it. No idea could be gained of the
amounts of the insurance or the actual losses
on the burned and damaged property, and
several days must elapse before they can be
stated. The insurance held by the losers at
the fire at Broadway and Franklin street,
that occurred at the same time as the South
street fire, aggregated $3.50, 200, and the loss
es Si50O0O.

WASHINGTON, Dec.

WASHINGTON. Dec. q.
District attorney Corkhill said tonight that
the government expected to submit the Gui.
teau case to the jury this week but the de.
tense having concluded to bring additional
expert" witnesses, he could predict no limit
for the trial. The prosecution had more
expert witnesses and would put them on the
stand to strengthen their case more fully.
These witnesses will testify positively that
they consider Guiteau perfectly sane and tina,
he is acting the part of maniac. When the
time comes for the delivering of the closing
argument Corkhill thinks the government
can present its case in one day, but thinks the
defense will require several days time.

A Steamer Aground.

NEW YORK, Dec. q.
The New Haven boat, c. II. Northam, left
its pier at Peck slip today, at 3 o'clock. en-
route for New Haven, Conn, carrying about
40 tons of miscellaneous freight. She had
not proceeded far up the East River, before
she was overtaken and completely enveloped
in fog that hid even the nearest objects from
view. At o'clock she ran upon ledge OF
rocks that runs for some distance more than
half mile from the southern extremity of
BIackwelfs Island, towards the bay. 1t
being high tide the boat ran upon the rocks
nearly half its length, and keeling over upon
the starboard side rested perfectly quiet,
drawing no more water than the pumps could
easily throw out. The passengers were taken
off without trouble, and were brought back
to the city. and lighters were sent to relieve
the vessel of her cargo. There is danger OF
her being wrecked should the weather prove
tempestuous.
