that way again and he was on
hand yesterday to see what the
"great majority" would do.sThey trans
acted considerable routine business,

recent order of Chief Brackett's which
only allows the patrolmen to take one
hour for meals, and compels the man
on the next post to look after things

DISTRICT FINANCES,


The Commissioners to Go Before the
Appropriation Committee.
The District Commissioners have been in
vited to meet the members OF the House ap-
preparation committee at the Capitol tomorrow.
1t is probable that the committee will take up
the District appropriation bill first and put it in
form for consideration. The Commissioners will
explain their estimates, which have been sub
mitted to the Secretary Of the Treasury, and if
opportunity offers will probably have something
to say on the condition of the District finances,
which now seems to make it imperative that
expenditures for improvements shall be much
curtailed.
Mr.. Douglass, in speaking OF the matter OF
the District revenues today, said he thought
the editorial article in Saturdays STAR made
some very important suggestions. It was no
more than fair, he thought that the United
States government should assume half of that
portion of the bonded debt OF the District rep
resentins expenditures up TO the time when
the present system Of sharing tho expenses of
the District went into effect. Such action on
tho part Of the government he said, would
greatly relieve the District.
He thought that in all other cities the system
OF assessing q part Of tho cost of street inn
provements upon abutting property prevailed
and that it was fair, although the conditions
here we're such as might make il inadvisable
to adopt such o course.

New York, Nov. 19-Charles II. Easton, for
five years past trusted omploye of the tobacco
house of John II. T. Mayo Of No. 6s Broad

Easton was in receipt Of q fair income. bus
speculation proved too great temptation for
him, and when, on October 8, he fed from the
city he left victims to whom he owed money -
the aggregate amount of $4,000.
His forgeries were of such nature and have
led to such complications among financial cor
porations that every effort was made 10 keep
the news OF his flight aud peculations from the
public. Not until yesterday did the news Of
his fight and forgeries become known. Every
effort made by the detectives to locate the
fugitive has proved futile. He is supposed 10
be in Canada. An examination Of the books of
Mr.. Mayo show that Easton's crooked work
was carried on for a long time. The raising of
