TARIFF RETURNS.
Custom Receipts from the German
Measure as Compared with
Mckinley Bill.

WASHINGTON. Sept. Sufficient re-
turns have reached the treasury de.
partment as to custom receipts under
the new tariff law to institute q
comparison with custom figures
under the Mckinley law. Under that
law. which was supposed to in
crease tariff rates. the withdrawal Of
goods from the custom houses was
made prior to the law taking effect,
Dot. 6. 1890, to escape increased duties.
Under the new tariff law the with
drawal Of goods took place and is still
taking place after the act became a
law. Aug. 28. Custom receipts rs re.
corded at the treasury are al
ways two days late, aud. In fact, f,
from the Pacific coast are usually
ten days late. so that the true state.
ment of government receipts for any
one day could only be accurately given
by segregating custom receipts by days
from all ports which is not done by
the treasury method Of bookkeeping.
The figures here given, however. are
approximately correct. In the COM
parison here made. only four days are
taken in each instance In the Mckinley
period, including two days after the
act became q law. and In the new tariff
law excluding the custom receipts for
the two days Immediately following the
date when the law took effect.

The ordinance granting the right of
way on Laurel, Church and Bridge
streets to which reference was made in
Mondays TRIBUNE, has not yet been
signed by Burgess Burke, although
week has passed since it was approved
by the borough council The ordinance
is In many respects similar to that un-
der which the Carbondale Traction
company was given privileges here.
Briefly, its provisions are that the
Laekawanna Valley Transit company
shall have the right of way over Bridge
street to. Church street, thence to
Laurel street as far as the borough line,
with the right to make such switches
and turnouts as may be necessary for
its accommodation. Only "T" rails
shall be laid with gauge Of not more
than five feet and two inches The
location shall be prescribed by the
street committee of the council. The
company shall be obliged to furnish an
iudemuifying bond in the amount of
81. 900 conditioned on the faithful psr.
torrance of the provisions of the ordi-
nance. 1t shall keep the road in re-
pair during the construction of the
railway. Cars shall not be run faster
than ten miles an hour under penalty
Of $40. Poles shall not be located so 40
to damage property or interfere with
travel, and the borough shall have the
privilege of using them for fire alarm
boxes. Bridges that 1t may be
necessary for the company to
hal hn at
far as they are occupied by
the railway. The company shall
commence the construction of the
track within one month and have it
completed within one year from the
passage Of the ordinance under pen
atty of the forfeiture of the privilege.
Whenever it Is necessary TO widen the
streets the company shall do so at its
own expense under the direction of the
street commissioner, The street shall
oe left in safe travelling condition and
the borough shall be reimbursed for
all damages legally resulting from the
carelessness. negligence or oversight Of
the railway company or its employees"
The crossings shall be planked at the
intersection Of streets as also shall the
street underneath the Delaware
and Hudson arch at Plane G. Where
ever d the track IS laid in the
middle OF the street it shall be planked
on either side. The company also
agrees to supply drainage pipe where
ever necessary to carry off surface
water. The ordinance also provides
that the company shall have the part
Of the street occupied by its tracks
whenever the borough passes the re-
mainder. There are some provisions
in the ordinance that appear super
iuous and others, highly necessary.
that are omitted. There is nothing
said as to the exact location
of the tracks on any of the
streets. and there are no restrictions in
the matter of fare. II the road is to be
built and operated these matters are
too important to be overlooked. The
borough council might easily have
profted by its experience with tho Car
Oondale Traction company. Even il
there should be necessity for such an
ordinance as that presented to the
council last Thursday night it would
have been wisdom on their part to
have considered it awhile before giving
it their approval
