Freaks Of the Telegraph

Names are always great stumbling block 70

writing should be plain, this advice like most
otner advice. Is but TOO often neglected. Hence
many tell grams get altogether astray.

error has been made, forthwith act upon them.
IL Is related that woman residing IN some

stormy, wintry weather, reached Leeds In the
evening, and was told by the landlord that he
could not see his brother that night, as he was

DOCK DEPARTMENT FINANCES.

Several men owning property along the East
River front, in the neIghbOrhOod of South and
MOntgOmery-sts., appeared before the Dock Com
missioners yesterday, and made statements In op-
position to the building of sheds, etc, along the
bulkhead, and requesting that structures now on
the bulkhead be removed. They represented that
the distractions to the river view had deprecated
the value of their property 10 such extent that
there was no demand for it. The Commissioners
requested that formal protest be presented at the
next meeting.
Justice Campbell appeared as counsel for Warren
Roosevelt and requested that the contract for filling
in and building cTib-wOrk across Coentes-sllp be
awarded TO Mr.. Roosevelt, i'll accordance with the
law. Mr.. Laimbeer moved that the contract DO
awarded to Mr.. Roosevelt, and that the terms of
the contract he referred to the treasurer with
power. Commissioner VOorhis said that he should
vote against the resolution because the price named
by Mr.. Roosevelt eXorbitant one, and because
there was no uneXpended balance in the hands of
the Controller TO the credit of the Department This
last remark caused animated discussion. MIR.
Lainbeer said that he should not vote a dollar not
to the credit of the Department. Justice Campbell
then said that, for the sake of harmony he
would reduce his clients estimate to S23, 1000 The
matter was finally laid upon the table to the dis
gust of Mr. Roosevelt and his counsel, who threat
cned 10 sue the Board 'Or damages.
On the motion of Mr. Laimbeer, Chief Clerk Whit
ney was ordered to present statement showing the
exact condition of the finances OF the department.
He stated that the Department had incurred liabll
ities for work TO he completed before May |, 1882
amounting to about $3.50, ,0OO and that only about
81 AZ 900 held TO its credit.
