and we call the attention of the Legislative
Committee to keep a watchfu eye on the bills
presented to the coming Legislature that affects
IL any way the finance of the county. Before
closing we do not deem it amlss to call the at
tention of the taxpayers and the community at
large to the fact that never before in the his
tory of Hudson County were there many
improv ements under course of construc.
tion as there are at present, and
said improvements win be constructed
with the greatest despatch until completed.
The New Public Road is being constructed as
rapidly as possible. Owing to the number of
appeals taken from the awards allowed by the
Commissioners Of Condemnation the work of
grading, etc., Is in certain places retarded. but

final end, we trust this great i'm

construction of a new iron bridge over the
HackeDsack River is also progressing. In con-
cluson your committee are bound to say that
strict care and economy must be used in order
that the appropriations recommended pe sufflci-
ent to pay the expenditures of the coming fiscal
year.
GENERAL BUSINESS.
T. Y. Brown was appointed by the
board yesterday craftsman in Engineer
Harrison's Office at salary of $50 per
month. This appointment, it was said by
Mr.. Harrison, was necessary because the
urlal OF SO many cases OF appeal from the
awards of Commissioners of Condemna-
tion for land required by the Boulevard,
necessitated the making of many maps to
be used in court.
John Berkery was announced to be the
lowest bidder to construct the reservoir
at Snake Hill and he was awarded the
contract for 50. 400.
The board ratified the contract entered
with the jersey City, Hoboken and
Rutherford Electric Railway, the details
of which have been published In The
JERSEY Cry NEWS, and appropriated $3.50
TO repair the cnlvert on Grand street over
Mill Creek and adjourned.

SUING TIE FIRE BOARD.

Rumors that It will Have to Answer
for Exceeding Appropriations.
Michael Rochford recovered judg-
ment Of s21S against the Fire Commits
sioners this morning in Justice Puster's
court. The Judgment embodies claim
of $500 for coal and wood furnished
in 1891, with $1S interest. The Fire
Com mtssioners set forth that sthey did
not pav the claim because the aDpropria-
tion for such supplies had been exceeded.
City Attorney Wears defended the city.
1t is understood that suit fs
to be brought against the Fire
Commissioners individually because they
had violated the Lewis law by exceeding
appropriations. The suits are to be
brought for the purpose of stopping the

THE WHY AND THE WHEREFORE.
In communication explaining the
estimates. the Finance Committee of the
Freeholders say
These appropriations are based upon the
actual needs of the county. as exhibited from
year to year. The needs of the county are in
creasing. Convicts. paupers and lunarics are
inct easing With our our population. and the accom-
must be continually on the increase These
approprat g are made with the strictest
economy, q the board. under 20 circum-
whatever n st be allowed. Most of the fore
going appro .fiationS are fixed by law. and this
Committee can neither increase nor diminish
them.
The communication says further that
the increase OF Si5, 600 for courts is neces-
sary, because the appropriation last year
was Insufficient, although all lines and
costs received by the county were added
to it. The present appropr' ION will
likewise be increased by the fines aud
costs.
The increase of $1,000 for Public
Grounds, Court House aud Jail, it is
claimed, is necessary because OF the in
creased demand for Office supplies and
the increased number of persons in the
County Jail. The increased num-
Der of lunatics In the asylum
is the reason alleged for the increase
of $1,000 over the appropriation made
last year. The $4,000 increase for the
Aims House over the last appropriation

penses of this institution. By recent act
of the Legislature. the board Is compelled
to seperate the sexes az well as to set
apart the boys from all other paupers. to-
gether with the increased number of
paupers."
The increase of $500 for the Smallpox
Hospital is due to the increased number
OF patients. The increase OF 1000 for
n
Asylum is due to the Increased number
there.
The increase of $3.50 for the Board OF
Health is TO be used TO complete the hos
pital for contagious diseases. The $500
Increase for the Board OF Equalization of
Taxes, was made to better enable the
