SENATOR sAB1N,s FINANCES.
A Receiver Appointed for His Company
But lie Has Not Failed.

ST. PAUL, MINI, May 11.-Upon applica-
tion made yesterday to the proper court, Mr..
l.. S. Bean was appointed receiver of the
Northwestern Car and Manufacturing COM
pany, of Saltwater, of which Senator d. M.
Sabin is president. Mr.. Stimson, vice
president and general manager of the COM
pany, states that the suspension will be but
temp orary, as the liabilities are but $l,110,-
900. and tho assets $4,oOo,00o of which
100000 are in accounts and bills receivable
The failure is duo to general depression and
slow collections from farmers. Mr.. Stimson
asserts that the business will undoubtedly
proceed under charge of the receiver, and
that the large excess of assets over the liabili-
ties will bo turned into cash. TO be used
in liquidatng the indebtedness and
the company be organized and continue in
business as usual. The company has largo
amount ofraw material ON hand and on the
road which, to be available, will have to be
worked up into engines, cars, threshing ma
chimes, &c. Mr.. Goodhue, secretary of the
company, says the failure isindirectly attrib-
utablo to the failure of Grant Il Ward, of
New York. Mr.. Sabin had been negotiating
in that city and had nearly completed a sale
when the Grant failure came and the parties
about to invest withdrew and declined to
purchase.
The Touring firm of ]. II. Townshend & Co.,
intimately connected with tho car company
suspended operations at the same time and are
awaiting the result Of tho investigation into
the car company's affairs before taking fur
ther steps.
Senator Sabin was seen last evening at his
residence on NJ street. He said that the COM
| pany, besides building cars also manulac-
| tured agricultural implements. 1t was the
| large number Of outstanding farmers notes,
| amounting to $1,000, 900, that had caused the
suspension on Saturday. The Northwestern
Car company'S works were started about ton
! or twelve years ago, and employed 600 mon
Senator Sabin, in reply to question, said
| that the assets OF the company were 81 100000
and their liabilities $1,000 100. Rather than
sacrifice the assets of the company 1t was
| thought best to temporarily suspend, so as to
| get the full benefit of the notes maturing and
tho sales made for the next nine months.
! These will cover all the Indebtedness of the
company. The company has large amount
of quick assets. The financial troubles in
New York, and the general distrust caused
thereby, rendered it impossible to float a large
amount of farmers paper due the company
The senator took occasion to say that the
New York papers had placed his name too
prominently in connection with the failure
II have not failed" I" continued the senator
speaking in an easy way, "but ii Is the com
pany in which j am one of the largest stock
holders" Senator Sabin said that he did no
apprehend any personal loss. He could no
say when the business of the company would
be resumed, but stated that he would leavt
Washington for st. Paul this evening.

The Senate Committee on Cities continued in the
citv Hall Yesterday its investigation into the man
apement of the Public Works Department. Civil
Justice mike Norton, Thomas p. Walsh, e1-
Alderman Tuomey, James j. Mooney, e1-Coroner
Quinn Sheriff Davidson and other friends Of Com
missioner Thompson were among the specta-
tors. Robert Fl. Clifford, chief clerk; John
s. Routh, contract clerk Theodore A. Hamilton,
as inspector on the Croton Aqueduct, and several
other salaried employees Of the Public Works De-
parment were also present. John Barry, the hotel
keeper who at the request and the requistion OF
James j. Mooney, one of Mr.. ThOmpson's subordl-
nates supplied sand and gravel to the Department on
5000 orders had been subpenaed but he failed to at
tend as he had gone to Troyto witness cock-hght.
Thomas Keech, formerly Superintendent OF Supplies
in the Department, testified as to the expenditures
of that bureau, as shown by the vouchers for the
three years of Mr.. Thonpsons administration
and the three preceding years. In 1878, 1879 and
1880 under Commissioner Campbell, the total ex-
pendtures from the appropriation for fubnc Dulid-
ings construction and repair" were $S4,S5O; 1or
the three succeeding years, under Mr.. Thompson,
the expenditures from the same fund were Sl54 600
an increase of S59l50. For the supplies and
cleaning of public offices for 1878, 1879 and 1850,
the total expenditure was $225,352, including an
appropriation of nearly $4,000 for furnishing
two new district court houses. For the three
years under Mr.. Thompson there was expended
S2s5, ,5s1. and no new building, was furnished
By transferring alleged uneXpended balances Mr.
Thompson increased his expenditures for supplies
by $4,000. Mr. Keech gave, instances In which
Mr. Thompson had evaded the law in regard to
contracts One instance was the Job OF work for
building a new brick sewer In Fifty-slxth-st. Mir.
Thompson built this on five orders given TO
Richard A. Cunningham, each one for $999 OF less,
the combined expenditure on this one job amount
ing to nearly $4,000. The work was all done within
a few weeks ,
Stevenson Towle Chief Engineer of Sewers in the
Department of Public Works, was examined III re-
gard to this job He gave confused and connlcting
answers to the questions and proved inte esting
witness. The first requisition made by Mr.. Iowle
covered nearly all the length of sewer built, the
other requIsItions which the orders were issued
covering parts of the same ground covered by the
first order Mr. Towle testified that the reason df-
ferent orders given for this work was the ne ne
cessity of keeping each order within the LOU
limit liked 10y statute for job of work not done by
contract. After consultation during the recess
with Mr. Thompson's counsel, Mr.. TOwle endeavored
to explain his original answers, but without success
