RAISED POSTAL NOTES.
a Sharper Buys II for 10 Cents Each
aud Raises Them to 54.IO..

Jacksonville, Fla, May 16.-Last Sat-
urday young man appeared at the post
office in Fernandina and purchased sew
enteen postal notes, each for 10 cents.
The notes were mum bered from 10, 764 to
Il. $50 inclusive. The young man proba-
bly, spent Sunday in raising the notes
from 10 cents 10 $40, for on Monday
morning well-knOwu merchant of this
city presented one of the notes for
payment at the Jacksonville postoffice.
The clerk called his attention
to the fact that the strips denoting dol
lars on the side Of the note had been torn
of, but as the merchant was known; and
as pOstmasters sometimes, make mistakes
in tearing of strips, the note was paid, con
ditionally, that the merchant should re-
fund the money if the note was u frand.
THE FRAUD EXPOSED.
Postmaster Clark wrote the Fernan-
dina postmaster, who telegraphed i'm
mediately that the notes mad been drawn
for 10 cents, and that seventeen of
them had been issued to one party.
After the merchant presented his note
two others came in for payment-one of
them from lady and another from a
well-known bank. The merchant who
presented the first note said that on Mon
day a stranger appeared in his store and
asked him to cash postal note, saying
that he did not have time TO go to the
pOstoffice, as he was in a hurry to catch
q train Said the stranger: The note
is for S4.l0; Just give me 81 and keep the
10 cents for your trouble
The young man has disappeared, and
has left no trace, save a number Of swim

this morning charged with keeping a
piggery. John thought the easiest way
to prevent on argument with the Jus
tice was to act the part of n deaf mute.
You understand the charge" asked
Justice Steers.
O'Brien pretended he did not hear. and
pointing to his mouth and ears shrugged
his shoulders. Justice Steers then wrote
on piece OF paper: You are charged
with keeping pigs, which Is not per-
mitted in the city"
O'Brien smiled, and producing n paper
handed II the Justice. The paper was
signed by John Mehl. and read: have
bought all Mr. O'Brlens pigs and he has
no more"
"Ah," said Justice steers, throwing
down the paper, then you havn't any
pigs"
o'Brien was of his guard and fell into
the trap.

YACHTS SPOIL A SAILOR.
Mr.. Dunphy's Opinion on the
Strike of the Navahoe's Grew.
He Says tho Better They Are Treated
the More They Kick.

when q sailor finds himself good
enough to get a berth on a yacht he
gets sassy" said Mr.. r. Dunphy, owner
Of the yacht Listless and other sport
ing craft. this morning.
Mr.. Dunphy was at IIaveron & Bren-
mans shipping agency. in Broad street,
when a reporter for 1.-THE Evening
World" called there to learn what was
thought about the strike on Royal
Phelps CAROLS yacht Navahoe at New
port.
Strikes on yachts are becoming com
mon features OF pleasure cruisers.
Richard Mansfeld's crew left him be-
cause they didn't like his style. and all
hands on me sqSb OF sb1r:
on account OF a grievance. There have
been numerous other rebellions on prl-
vHtc vessels. and now the men of the
famous Navahoe desert their ship.
"A sailor is like some dogs are said to
he" added MIR. Dunphy. ''If you knock
them around with hand duty and poor
fare they love their master and theii
ship. but give them little to do and plenty
70 eat and lots Of leeway in everything
they Kick for more
Mr.. Carrolls yacht has lain for
under command OF capt. Crocker. Thc
crew, consisting Of eleven men, has had
nothing to do but keep the craft ship
shape and raise and lower bunting.
When Mr.. Carroll came aboard yes
terday the men said that they did not
get enough to eat, and what there was
of II was inferior. Mr.. Carroll went
into the galley and inspected the food.
lie pronounced II satisfactory, and
came up and so informed the mutineers.
They begged TO differ. and went ashore,
being rowed thither by the cook.
You cant do anything with sailors
when they take a grumble into their
heads" said Mr.. Skidder. at Hayeron &
Brennan's. They find fault with them
selves when they are well used, and
always begin kick by complaining OF
the grub.
Now. I know the difference between
working on pleasure yacht and a
merchantmen.
when sailor steps on trading
vessel he doesn't get match or a
piece of soap that he doesn't furnish
himself. When he goes on yacht
he Is furnished all his clothes, and they
are handsome. comfortable garments,
including oilskins and weather coats.
"They are paid more on yacht and
are usually given a gratuity at the end
OF the season. As for the food. II is
usually the best that the flrst-class gro
ceries and provision-houses of New York
can supply.

kick. and I suppose that they Will do sc

WILL he WEDtALOIE?
Senator Cantor Will Not Deny or
Affirm the Runner.
Any Statement, He Says, Must
Come from Miss Fuller.
Friends Declare that the Engage
y ment Is of Long Standing.

State Senator Jacob A. Cantor, when
seen to-day at his office, 96 Broadway,
by an Evening World" reporter, would
neither affirm nor deny the report which
has reached this city from Paris that he
Is to marry Miss I.oe Fuller, the dancer,
who recently closed an engagement In
the French capital.
'It Is a matter that I really cannot
talk about said he. ~ there Is any
thing to bc said in regard TO the matter,
It must come from Miss Fuller"
Senator Cant tons manner was such as
to give the Impression that the reported
engagement is true.
Continuing he said that he had for a
long time acted as Miss Fuller's counsel
In business affairs. He met her ln Paris
Europe with Miss Fuller and her
mother.
Although the Senator would not dis,
not hesitate to talk Of Miss Fuller's
professional plans. He said that she was
now making tour OF Holland and that
last week he received cable that she
had danced before the Queen of Bel
GUM
After Holland Miss Fuller will go to
Germany and then back to Paris. Then
make a tour OF South America.
According to her present plans" said
he. miss Fuller will not return to the
United States for a year and a half"
A friend OF Miss Fuller said to-day
that the dancers friends had known for
some time OF her engagement to the
Senator. He has been married before.
His wife died about three years ago. He
Is member Of the Lexow Investigating
Committee.
Miss Fuller. It will be remembered
attracted considerable attention few
years ago by charging William r. Hayes
with bigamy. She alleged that she had
entered into a written marriage agree
ment with him. Hayes was afterwards
convicted Of perjury In another case

UNDER THE EAST RIVER.
Revival of n scheme for n Railway
Tunnel TO Brooklyn

The scheme OF the New York and
Brooklyn Railway Company for per-
mission to tunnel the East River from
Spruce street in this city to Myrtle ave
rue, Brooklyn. was revived to-day. and
referred to the Committee on Tunnels.
Benjamin T.. Henning is president of the
tunnelling company. 1t was organized a
few years ago. and first made the
application for tunnelling the East River
early in 1893.
At the regular meeting of the Board
of Aldermen to-day. application was
made on behalf OF the Forty second
street. Manhattanville and St. Nicholas
Avenue Railroad Company. by Presi-
dent John ID. Foster. for franchise for
double track car line over West
Eighty-sixth street from Eighth to
Tenth avenues.
The permit would give the Company
n continuous line from East to West
OF the city. and enable them to cary
passengers across town without the ne
cessity OF n transfer to other lines. A
hearing on the application will be given
by the Railroad Committee on Thurs
day, Oct, T. at II o'clock.
The Police Commissioners were given
permission to arrange for the printing
OF ballots and the manufacture OF ballot
boxes for the forthcoming election, with
out the necessity OF advertising.
Alderman Parks was present. but the

Every additional passenger thus Sc
cured represents the velvet upon which
the company is conducting its business.
It Is a matter OF common knowledge
that the profits OF all the street rail-
road companies of New York are enor-
nous. and in almost every instance
their stock Is SO valuable that II seldom
comes into the market. The rate OF
these profits IL increasing every year
with the rapid growth OF the city's
population and the increasing demand
for travelling accommodations.
Ah evidence OF this is the organiza-
ton ~ big syndlCates of capitalists. which
have sprung into existence during the
last few years and which now have al
most exclusive control OF the street rail-
way business. not only In New York but
in the other great cities of the country.
In almost every instance the original
companies had secured from the munich

proved to hc OF enormous value as time

session OF rights and privileges which II
could be hardly possible to obtain at the
present time from any municipal author
ity should they apply for permission to
construct new lines.
what the people demand is that the
managers OF these corporations should
operate their lines with some regard for
public comfort and convenience, and not
solely as IL means OF putting millions in
their pockets year after year. 1.-THE
Evening World" proposes to ind out
why 1t Is that the people OF this city
are not receiving the accommodations
to which they are entitled from those to
whom 1t has granted such valuable fran
chses.
why Is II that no law or ordinance
has been enacted which will do away,
at least In some degree, with the dis
graceful overcrowding of the public
convcyances OF the city?
There Is no one who will not say that
there Is plenty OF room for wise and
intelligent legislation on this subject "

protection to the people in their rights
