THE COUNTY'S BAD CREDIT.

Those Claims May Be Passed Because
Snake Hill Horses Are Hungry.
1t is probable that the horses at Snake
Hill in the future will be compelled to
study DR.. Tanners treatise on fasting.
This morning Warden Ryan, of the
Aims House, discovered that there were
no oats on the Hill to feed the animals
with. He drove to this city and visited
nearly all the. feed stores and asked to
have some feed sent to the Hill. He was
refused in each place, because the store
keepers would no longer trust the
county"
Ryan then sought Andy Boyle. chair
man of the Committee on County Institu-
tions, and told him these facts. Boyle
went all over the Hill and begged for
some oats, and finally, after much plead
ing, w. R. Cook agreed to send ten bags
to the Hill, although don't expect any
money" said he.
Some people claim that this decrying
the credit of the county is only for
the purpose of forcing the Freeholders to
pay the $4,000 requisition bills, to show
that the finances OF the county are good.
1t is expected that a special meeting OF
Board of Freeholders will be called at an
early day next week to pass the claims in
their hands.

OH, HOW CLARK GREW.
He Attained to a PoIiceman's Stature in
Two Minutes.

He Attained to Policeman's Stature in
Two Minutes.
There must be something about the
atmosphere in Police Headquarters that
tends to make man grow tall. This was
illustrated yesterday afternoon. The
Commissioners at their last meeting ap-
pointed Michael Clark patrolman and it
was understood that he would be de-
tailed to do special duty in the place of
Special Policeman Donovan, of the Second
precinct. One of the requirements of the
Police Department Is that a candidate
must be at least five feet seven inches in
height, the inference of the Police Board
being that man who does not reach this
measurement is not capable of protecting
the lives and property of the community.
Michael Clark, the newly appointed po-
hceman, appeared in Police Headquarters
yesterday afternoon to be examined as to
his eligibility. He had been regularly ap-
pointed by unanimous vote, but this
was not sufficient. 1t was necessary to
examine and measure him. Mr.. Clark
was measured. He took off his shoes and
stood in his stocking feet against the
measuring instrument. He stretched
himself the best he could, but all his eff
forts could not make him reach the mark
representing five feet seven inches. The
examiner placed his hand between Clark s
head and the protruding stick, which
marked the required height, and told
Clarkt hat he was about two inches short
of the required height. Clark looked as
tonisheds and disappointed, and the
visions Of a handsome police uniform,
with shining brass buttons and white
shield, disappeared.
President John P. Feeney, of the Police
Board, happened into headquarters just
as Mr.. Clark was putting on his shoes, and
bewailing his misfortune that he had not
been born giant Mr. Feeney and Mr..
Clark are very good friends, and the
President of the Board became interested
in the case of his constituent. He was
told that Mr.. Clark had failed to stretch
himself to the required height of five
feet seven inches, but Mr.. Feeney would
not believe this story. He knew Mr..
Clark, and believed that he was a tall
man. So he ordered Mr.. Clark to go
through a second examination.
Again Clark took his shoes off and
stood against the measuring instrument
and stretched himself He stretched him
self we'll at the second examination, and
it is presumed reached the five feet seven
inches notch. He had grown two inches
in as many minutes and he was accepted
as eligible. He put on his shoes again
and walked out of Police Headquarters
satisfied that the air and influence about
the place make short man tall Mr..
Clark will act as a special policeman in
the Second precinct

NEW POLICE QUARTERS.

Active Preparations for Building on the
Gregory Street Site.
! 1t begins to look as though the old
Gregory Street Police Station, which has
so long been adisgraee to the city, would
soon be replaced by commodious mod
ern structure.
Wednesday City Surveyor Van Keuren
surveyed the land on which the station
house now stands for the Board of Works
and Assistant George w. La Baw is now
engaged in making pencil sketch OF
building and an estimate of its cost for
the Board of Finance.
The first steps necessary to be taken in
the matter will be the issuance by the
Board of Finance of four per cent twenty
year bonds to an amount not exceeding
S45, 900. When this is done the Police
Board will select the site and then the
Board of Works will advertise for pro-
posals for the erection of the building and
proceed with its construction.
The first building which it is proposed
to put up will be for the use of the First
precinct police, and the First District
Police Court will occupy the land upon
which the present Gregory street station
and Headquarters stand. 1t is proposed
to build a modern station house in every
particular, with cells as near perfect sani-
tarily as possible, and all the modern con-
veniences for the comfort of the men.
The Headquarters Department will
have temporary quarters in the new build
ing, but will not be located there per-
manently as it is intended to place the
Police Department in the new. City Hall
when that building is erected. Besides,
the First precinct is now composed of
sixty men, and in order to house them
properly and fulfill the requirements of
the modern station house. besides pro-
yiding proper facilities for the police
court, will require all the land occupied
by the two buildings.

Now They Want Our Brickyards and
Have Formed Combine for Them.
BIZ Gable to the United Press
LONDON, July 10, 1Ss9.-A joint stock
company was organized here today, which
Is of the nature of a trust, for the pur-
chase of the principal brickyards in the
United States. The negotiations have
already been practically concluded
with George w. Moore, well known
Michigan attorney, so far as the brick
wards of the city of Detroit are concerned,
the English syndicate agreeing to pur-
chase the plant and material of the several
yards there for about $500,0
The propositions made include the real
estate and good will of each firm selling
out. The brickyards of Detroit are said
to have an annual aggregate capacity
and output of $4,000, 900 brick, at from $6
to 81 1000, the yearly business
amounting to over $400,00 This capital
combination will be of an entirely differ
ent character to that recently organized
to operate the American breweries.
The plan of the brickyard trust is
to extinguish the smaller yards and con-
centrate the business in one or two large
yards. New and improved machinery is
contemplated which will produce brick at
reduced price.
The syndicate will take charge of the
Detroit brickyards within thirty days, ac-
cording to the agreements made.

Association.

And More for the Young Mems Christian
Association.
The Young Mems Christian Association
took fifteen car loads of excursionists
along with them to Ocean Grove yester-
day. Over 5000 was cleared, of which the
Tabernacle Band will receive $40 as its
share of the profits. About fifty persons
boarded the train at Marion. At Ocean
Grove the eXcursionists spent delightful
day in testing the diversified amusements
of the splendid resort Bathing, rowing,
strolling and posing for pictures were the
chief pleasure of the majority.
A party of 200 entered the surf together
The Tabernacle band serenaded Mr.
George w. Clerihew and his family at
their cottage, and gave several concerts,
for which they were greatly applauded.
General Secretary Arthur Lucas had the
entire charge of the arrangements, and
engineered the movement from the
start.
He deserves the thanks of both the as
sociation and it's patrons-the first for the
financial success, the latter for the pleas
ant trip which they were afforded. Not q
single accident occurred. The train con-
ductor complimented the behavior of the
party, who arrived home early in the
evening

CURRIE ESTATE DAMAGES.
How Much Would the WaverlY and New
York Road Hurt 1t?

How Much Would the WaverlY and New
York Road Hurt 1t?
President Allen, of the Board of Alder
men, John D. Carscallen and Henry
Dusenberry, the Commissioners appointed
by Judge Knapp to assess the damages
likely to be done to the Currie estate by
the passage of the Waverly and New York
Railroad through the Currie's property,
met this morning in the law library.
Mr.. Vredenburgh, who represents the
railroad company, objected TO the Com
nlissioners' considering any property
other than that belonging to the person
mentioned in the Commissioners ap-
pointment. This gave rise to long dis
pute between Mr.. Vredenburgh and Law
yeIs Newbold and Black, representing the
Curries, which was brought to close by
Mr.. Carscallen, with the suggestion that
valuable time was being wasted.
Mr.. Newbold then stated the grounds
upon which they would base their appll-
cation for damages. He said these should
not be based alone upon the value of the
land for building, or for park site, but
other matters should be taken into con-
sideration. Not only should the present
damages be taken into consideration, but
also those which will arise within a rea-
sonable time in the future.
He then produced map and showed
how completely the water front is taken
up by railroads, and pointed out how the
road, which would obtain the approach
through the Currie strip to the bay, would
shut out all others.
A profile map of the county was then
produced, and Mr.. Newbold showed ON it
how the strip sought to be condemned
was the natural gateway from the West
to the great improvements which are
bound to be made in the bay within the
next twenty years; Improvements which
Mr. NeWbold declared would be un-
equalled by anything now in existence.
All the surrounding country is about
forty feet high, while the Currie strip is
but fifteen feet high.
To approach the bay another route will
cost for tunneling and grading at least
81, 600, 600 more than by the Currie strip.
Another matter which Mr.. Newbold
urged that the Commissioners should
take into consideration is the damage
which the approach of the railroad
through the Currie estate would cause to
the improvements in the bay of the Point
Breeze Ferry Company, upon which the
latter has expended hundreds of thou
sands of dollars.
Mr.. Mungo j. Currle was then exam
ined as to the owners of the land in the
vicinity of the proposed railroad and a
recess was taken.
