BROOKLYN BRIEFS.

Mrs Edna Santanna of South Main street has completed arrangements for the purchase of the farm on Town plot in the vicinity of the school building. The price paid was $5,5 500.
 Bridget Walsh of 36 North Leonard street, an employe of Holmes. Booth < Hayden's, had the index finger of her right hand caught in a foot press to-day. Dr Benedict dressed the injury.
 John Dunphy, II North Riverside street, an employe of the Watch shop. had the index finger of his left hand smashed while at work this morning. pr BenedNt amputated the member at the first joint.
 There is open war among the electors of the South BroCk klyn district and the election which took place for school officers is to be stubbarnly contested. It is al- legged that the names on the ballots were misplaced and that four persons who have not yet acquired a residence in the district attended the meeting and voted. After the election the defeated candidates secured the ballots and found out all these facts and several other irregularities which will be brought to the notice of the town school board this evening. The moderators and all others interested held an indignation meeting last night and appointed Michael Harty and E. r. Green to fight the case. Maurice Fitzgerald and James ByrAes were the moderators.

by which in return for 3 800, GOO ounces of gold coin a hatch of about S65, GOO, 900 in United States | per cent bonds was is sued. iS now closed
 ''Sune very important concessions have brCn made by the government toward the bond syndicate by which the latter is rC'- liCVtd from the expense and trouble of bringing here several millions of foreign gold. Domestic coin seems tu have been credited tH the syndicate as imported gold
 "rhr terms Uf the contract wcrv very explicit that one half uf tho gold bargain- cd fnr was tn cnmc from ahr,,ad and was to hc imported by the syndicate and dCliv- Cr,tl Ia the guvCrnmcnt
 In addition the syndicate was t0 use its best rnLravurs during tho continuance "f the contract to protect the United States tr,aSury against demands on ii for gold in exchange for paper.
 The Terms Were Plain.
 The section of the contract with the syndicate which covers the point as Ia de livery of foreign gold k aS follows:
 At least one half of all coin deliver ahlc hereunder shall be obtained in and shipped from Europe
 The contract also provides that no bonds shall hr delivered Ia the parties of the s,H'"nd rart Cthr syndicatcl or either of them except in payment for coin from time tn time received hereunder.
 These two provisions would SCCm tu mon of ordinary Intelligence to mean first, that half the coin sold Ia the g,rvern- mCnt must hr actually imported, shipped from Europe, and. s,'Cund, that no bonds should hr delivered except upon r,ccipt of coin hereunder iS, of coin half i'm ported under the provision of the contract
 'E remains to he explained by what tcChnicality l1,0O0, GOO ounces of domestic coin that never went to Europe could bo considered as having been constructivcly shipped from Europe. or how bonds can bc delivered in payment for coin not re ceivcd hereunder Is, within the terms of the contract.
 Outside of gold for hnarding here the only demand on the trrasury for gold Is by exporters who cannot find credit from the sale of cotton or grain or petroleum or other exported articles with which to meet demands by American importers to pay their accounts abroad.
 In such a case gold must be sent over When American securities were coming this way in rush, there WAS a cOrrCSpond- ing outflow of gold cuin-thc only intE- national staudarl-to meet the payments necessary.
 since the Belmont Morgan syndicate opened it's deal there have been no exports of gold coin. Any shipper could go to the

Why the Waterbury Furniture Co GIVES SUCH R LARGE
RMOU>T OF REDr1

"
 Rankers brokers and all authorities on finance practically agree that 95 per cent of the business of the country is done on Credit. All good housekeeperS will pay spot cash to the grocer and baker. the butcher the ClOthier. etc, etc, but when II comes to the furuiture dealer the bills are so large that they do not feel abl" to pay Ii all At once. And if all men waited 10 have plenty of cash before they got married the population of tbe country would suffer very materially. If everybody waited to get ALI. the money before getting home Waterbury would still bea hoWhnS wlldeI- pess. We may as We Il be frank with IOI and say that the very best and richest peO- pls do not pay CASH for their furniture We have had an expert accountant on our books lately. and he finds that in all the years that We have been doing business the amount of bills which We lost are so small that he can hardly beIleve his own figures And yet il Is well known to every body. all over Western Connecticut that the Waterbury Furniture Co bAS never taken advantage of anybodyS shortcom- lncs. Bet what shall We say 10 the dealers who boldly announce to the world that they Will Give Twenty-Five Ter Cent ot To The Cash Customer. That means II you buy your gods on credit il costs you twenty-five cents on every dollars worth more than if you bought for cash. This Is Robbery Pure And simple The most that anyone should expect would be bank interest. which is per cent. We are not in favor of charging anybody more than that amount. Look well t0 the character of the house before you buy; ani If you don't have all the money at one time. doa't [ allow yourself to be robbed We will Ar- commoiate you on any reASonahl" sum ; besides.

New YORK, Jan. 3.-MarQuise Mathilda

who, as a member of Maximilian's staff,
was killed in Mexico in the Franco Next
can War. died in abject poverty in her
comfortless apartments in this city last
evening. The expense of her funeral was
borne by Miss Julia Cooper. niece of the
late Peter Cooper. Nine. de Greville has
been more or less dependent for five years
upon Miss Cooper and ner friends.
The mother of the deceased woman was
a direct descendant of Louis XVI and her
father was of royal Belgian family. one of
adviser to the King of Belgium.
General Pierre Chicola de Thier, the
dead woman's father, served through five
wars with Napoleon |, being with the
great COrsiean. by whom be was decorated

Waterloo. Bonaparte also presented him
with gold and ieweled snuff-box
Nine. de Grevile was born In London

years of age she was presented at the
French court, where she met her husband.
After the death of her husband. who was
decorated for bravery on the field by
Napoleon III, Mme. de Greville settled in
Cuba, where she lived on the little money
left her by her husband. Fifteen years
ago she came to this city, and for five
years she and her daughter, who is 10
years of age, have endeavored to support
themselves by curling feathers, but the
mothers failing health made il impossible.

He referred to Secretary Carsle's cur
rency-reform scheme as containing some
good features and some decidedly obJec-
tionable ones. Its provisions for the
safety of circulating notes he considered
ample. Currency should be issued against
ali the assets of bank, not any specified
portion. The proposal to relieve State
banks OF all taxation while levying tax
OF half of / per cent upon national bank
circulation was discrimination which
would place the national banks at disad-
vantage. similarly the restriction upon ma
tional banks agains st notes of less than $40,
while no restriction was placed upon State
banks.

TOO MANY TRAMPs.
Los Angeles Is Short of Proper Ac.
commodationS.


Los ANGELES, Jan. 3.-While the tramp
problem in Los Angeles is not as serious as
that reported from Sacramento, 1t was,
nevertheless, considered grave enough TO
cali a joint meeting of the members of the
City Council and the Police Commission
this afternoon to formulate a plan by
which this evil could be suppressed.
A report submitted by the Chief of
Police shows that there are over $50 pris-
oners now quartered in the city Jail, which
has not the proper accommodations for
third of the number.
Twenty-four mem bers of the nomad tribe
which Is now pouring into the city were
brought to the police station in one body
this morning and as the jail accommoda-
tons have been exhausted the matter is
taking on serious aspect.
Numerous plans were suggested, but no
definite one for housing the criminals was
adopted. Depred ations are frequent and
during the past two weeks forty applica-
tions have been made by citizens to carry
weapons.
The necessity of establishing vigilance
committee similar to that formed at Sacra-
mento was earnestly preached and it was
recommended that the City Council obtain
some available place where the overflow
of the City Prison can be kept and to take
up the tramp question and act on some
plan of remedying the situation at the
earliest possible moment.
