President Mcleod Makes Genera
Denial of the Report of Isaac L. Rice.
In reply to the report of Isaac l..
Rice, the accountant, attacking the
Reading Railroad company's purchase
of the stock of the Boston 6 Maine and
New York Sc New England Railroad
companies, President Mcleod, in a
statement over his signature, explains
in detail that all the transactions for the
purchase of tie stocks to control the
New England railroad were made with
the concurrence and approval of the
Reading directors for the benefit of the
Reading. He also states that he be-
lieves still that if the blow aimed at its
credit had not been struck, the acquIsi-
ton of the eastern roads would, by
giving the Reading the control abso-
lutely of large market for coal, have
added enormously to its revenues. He
Prince for $1S0,000 in commissions for
making transactions to acquire the
sock was unjust.
A letter has been received by a Boston
firm from an agent of the West Jersey
Railroad company, a branch of the
Pennsylvania railroad. 1t is dated May
10 and says: "We can not forward
freight to any points on the New York
& New England road under present
arrangements on JOINT rates. Inc nrm
says: "We were told by the New York
& New England agent that the Pennsyl-
vania railroad had re-established all the
old rates and that we could ship as
hitherto, but the letter quoted would in
dictate that such is not the fact"
The railroad investigating committee
of the Massachusetts, legislature voted
yesterday, II to 4, to report that the
New York, New Haven & Hartford has
not, as alleged at the hearings at the
state house, violated its charter. The
four dissenters who believe that the
New Haven road has violated its
charter, or at least been guilty of dis
elimination against the New York &
New England road, are Senator Ray,
the senate chairman of the committee,
Senator Klmball of Northampton and
Representatives Mellen of Worcester
and Bartlett of Lynn.

BrOOEZN9s Briefs.

The funeral of Dennis L. Fitzgerald
will take place at $50 tomorrow after
noon, with services at st Patrick g
church and interment in st Joseph's
cemetery.
The members of the Brooklyn ORA
matte club and all who assisted at the
recent bazaar of st Patrick's parish are
requested to meet at the Lyceum to-
morrow evening at 1880.
"A petition is being circulated and
pretty generally signed by the property
owners on Charles, South Leonard,
Porter, Third, Fourth, Fifth and Sixth
streets, asking. for the construction of
sewers so as to cover this locality. The
plans for carrying the Brooklyn trunk
sewer south of Washington avenue,
along Simon street to Porter, to Charles,
and thence to the city lines, were COM
pleted by City Engineer Cairns last
summer aud described IN the DEMOCRAT.
There is no question but that the section
now looking for relief is badly in need
of it. 1t is closely buiH up, and many
of the buildings are tenement blocks of
from four to eight families. The waters
from the Town plot flow down and into
the cesspools and make the condition of
things from a sanitary point of view in
many instances deplorable. The assist
ance asked for should be granted, and
no opposition should be offered, even
from those who have not yet erected
houses on their lots.

To the Public il. General and
CuSt( mars in Particular:

1t is new nearly three years since we
outgrew our present large quarters. The
great volume of business dor is q surprise
to ourselves..as we'll as to the public. That
such business cJu,d be done in a city of
this size is without precedent, 80 far as we
can learn. AND IT Is NOT MUSHROOM
GROWTH 1t has been built up step by step
from the bottom. 1t is the logical result
and the outgrowth of sound business
principles. 1t is the result of putting
conscience into business, quality into
goods and words into actions. In these
days, when nine tenths IF the men who
90 into business believe that the people
must be humbugged in order to be success
full in dealing with the m, it is refreshing
as well as encouraging to the youth of our
land to be able to demonstrate that such
is not the truth. The old fashioned
truths taught at our mothers knee are
still the ones to follow.
We have been compelled to seek larger
quarters, but we will be in business at the
old stand for some mo this to come, South
Main and Grand streets. Large bodies
move slowly and it will be so in our case
The weather of late has retarded our pro-
gress in the way of delivering goods, but
we have done our best to satisfy our GUS
toners, and they have been kind in over
looking some delays that leased them
great deal, and for which we are very
sorry. We have never had such variety
of gccds before, and the low prices are
surprising everybody. But this is because
we buy in such large quantities. Our
Quaker Ranges continne to be the favor
lite; they burn less coal and bake the best
of any stove in the world, and we give a
guarantee with every one of them. Our
various lines, Carpets, Crockery, Stoves,
Ranges, Woodenware, Pictures and Fur
niture were never so complete, and prices
were never so low. Our undertaking de-
partment is a model of excellence, and
everybody is attended with great care
and consideration. Night calls are
answered at 80 Grand street, where two
night clerks are always in attendance.
