BROOKLYN BRIEFS.

Charles and Otto Hellmann left today for visit to their aunt, Mrs Adam Hell. mann of Bridgeport.
 When Street Inspector Kelley con- plAined last night that the sand was being stolen from the gravel pit on Green street. Mir Henderson said he did not think the people around there thought it any harm to help themselves to whatever they could find there. The place. he said. is an eye sore to the people and a hindrance to con- tinuation of the street. The sooner it is out of there the better for the property owners. and the people know it. and for this reason he thought 1t would be a good idea to have 1t removed as soon as possible. no matter who took it.
 The city is bent on doing a good job on Bank street above the brewery. Some time ago the property owners at this point called attention to the need of a crosswalk at the corner of Porter and Rank streets. To-day the street inspector has a force of men at work putting down the walk. Per- haps this is the reason the road board last night refused to modify the order of the board notifying property owners to put down concrete walks at both sides of the street. W. J. Schlegel asked permission to put down a board walk in front of the Sperry property until the land would be built on, but it was decided not to change the original order

TALKING OVER DETAILS.
Tariff Conferees Making Slow Progress Toward Agreement.
SENATORS IN A PRIVATE OoNfAB.
It Is Understood That the Concessions on the Sugar Schedule Have Been Decided Upon by Democratic Working For n Compromise Agreement.

It IS tnderntoou That the Concessions on
 the Sugar Schedule Have Been Decided
 Upon by Democratic senators-working
 For n Compromise Agreement.
 WASHINGTON, Aug 2.-It was stated by one of the Democratic senate cunfcroes that there was n possibility of reaching m agreement on the tariff bill about tho end of tho week, with q probability that the bill as finally agreed on would be reported on Monday. It was found by the con ferees that they had n great many ques- tions to go over and agree upon even after thc main points in dispute are settled. It was stated by the house confcrees that they had not made as much progress as they had hoped.
 The agreement, when 1t comes, will be n compromise, as both houses feel that the concessions will have to be made. On the great questions of fdiffcrcnce-coal, iron orc and sugar--there has been no agree mcnt, although it was understood that different propositions were made yester- day and rejected. It is believed, however, that if the sugar schedule was disposed of the other differences would not long be al- lowed to stand in the way.
 Private Conference Held.
 The senate conferces still take the posi- tion that they have nothing to compro- misc on sugar, but 1t Is stated that 0 counter proposition is to be made to tho house on this schedule. In this connec- ton a significant and private conference was held, attended, as near as can be learned, by Senators Brice, Smith, Mur- phy, Jones and Vest. It could not be learned if Senator German was present.
 It is understood that the sugar schedule was the subject under discussion, and the amount of concession which will be yield charge was finally decided upon. It is pos sible that the other differences which ex- list were discussed at the conference.
 The fact that the Democratic house eau GUS was postponed is regarded as n victory for the house confcrees, which gives them n prestige in the contest, although theft friends were confident that in the event of n caucus it would result in an indorse- ment of the stand taken by them.
 The senate managers, who do not like to conccdc that there has been any wavor- ing in their lines, say that the house has never had an opportunity to pass upon tho senate bill and inferentially leave tho impression that they expect n report not of an cntirc agreement, but a disagree mcnt to many matters for which the senate contends, and that the bill will be sent to the house in the hope that concur rcnccs may result It was claimed that this course was felt to be preferable to the caucus plan, and as the bill would be in possession of tho house there would not be a charge of discourtesy to the conferees

DUN TALKS ABOUT wIMAN.
He Thinks His Ex-Partner's Sentence
Was Not Inadequate.

MONTREAL, June 2L-R. G.. Dun, of
New York. was IN the city to-day on his
way 10 his fishing grounds at Cascapedia,
Gaspe. In en interview Mr.. Dun said of Mr..
Wiman's sentence: II think that II 1t had
not been for the Recommendation of mercy
made by the jury the sentence would have
been more severe. I am not vtndictive
against wiman. but I am sure that Judge
Ingraham, who is known as one OF the
most capable judges on the United States
bench, would have imposed a heavier SEN
tence had IL not been for that recon-
mendatfon. In my opinion the sentence was
not at all Inadequate"
Asked If he was prepared to cooperate in
an attempt to procure a Communication Of
the sentence. Mr.. Dun said that he did not
rectiOn, and there was no reason why he
should interfere. Mr.. Dun was shown an
interview in a New York paper In which
Mr.. Wiman Is reported as saying that he
(Wimanl built I'D the business by securing
agents who did the work for nothing. That
IS Wiman all over" said Mr.. Dun, emphat-
ically. THE man Is eaten up with vanity.
and that is one OF his exaggerated state
ments. AS a matter OF fact, We pay our
agents.; men do not work for nothing. OF
course, our travellers through the country
make friends. and we get some correspond
ence in that way But that statement about
10000 agents working for nothing Is just
like Wfman."
