Committee Appointed TO Investigate
Engineers Office.

The Board OF Aldermen held a meeting
o'clock, although 1t was regular meeting
day. Alderman Fuller moved tnat the
matter of the engineers salary be taken
from the table.
MIR. Clark, through Arnold Greene,
addressed the Board on the subject Of his
communication, showing the few facts
which Mr.. Clark had to suggest. lie first
told that Mr.. .Shedd does not comply with
the ordinance relative to residence in the
city and is prepared 10 show that prior
10 July ]. 1895, MIR. Sbedd and his family
were residents of Woonsocket, as they
are now, but since then Mr.. shedd, to
make his actual residence coincide With
his claimed residence, hired a house in
Providence, which Is vacant. No man
can claim any rights in viol alton OF or
contempt of the statutes. He did not
have his name taken of the voting or taa
lists as a nonresident, as ne ought. The
second point Is the extravaganza with
which somebody has conducted the city
engineers department.
The items in the auditors accounts
charged TO engineers department and
sewerage departments did not properly
connect, and Mr. Greene spoke guardedly
and thought il looked baJ, because S50,-
Geo charged to city engineers department
and s1l,000 charged to sewerage depart
ment would make it appear that Mr..
Shedd's department was really getting
over s6o,0C0. Mr.. Greene then quoted
from the Boston auditors report, intend
ing 10 show that the proportion in en-
gineer's department Is larger here than
in Boston.
A third thing ia very important, Mr..
Gre ne said. MIR. shedd is at present oc-
cupying two contradictory positions. ttat
OF city engineer and as mem ber OF the
harbor commissioners Mr.. Greene told
how he appeared before the legislative
committee for MIR. Clark as to the bulging
ont of piles at his coal wharf, because OF
dredging under direction OF MIR. Shedd's
department. lie referred TO the Pomroy
Coal Company getting damages from the
city on similar account, but Mr.. Clark
got left because he conld not get the city
10 help him out. Ms. Greene finds fault
when the same man IN the city OF Pro-
vidence turns his overcoat INSIDE out to
favor one and disfGvor another. Mr..
Greene said, finally, that his client, as
large taxpayer OF the city, was entitled
TO recognition. He also touched up Red
Bridge and Fruit Hill reservoir. 49,,
Alderman Fuller moved that a commit
tee of three be appointed 10 investigate
the charges against the city engineer and
Messrs. Little, Fuller and Pierce were APP
pointed by His Honor. The commission
er OF public works report naming Mr..
shedd's salary was referred to the same
committee.
The resolution for the payment OF the
city's portion of the State lax, amount
ing to over $50, 000, was passed in con-
currence.
Alderman Mccarthy presented a COM
munication from the inspector OF milk

FINANCIAL NEWS.



NEW YORK, May 26-There was moth.
10 the rumored steps toward Tobacco
settlement. The fact remains, however,
that people IN the A. NJ. 4. trade and
not stock operators, bought Tobacco Sat-
urday In considerable quantities on what
they considered evidence OF prospective
Improvement In trade relations. An
officer OF the company says it will be
found upon investigatioRthat the princi-
pal dissa tisfaction with the situation is
among outside companies. The Ameri-
can Toabcco Company is strong enough
TO keep up the light es long as the outside
companies want TO keep u up.
The sharp decline in A. NJ. T. Just be-
fore the close faturday was attributed by
traders to the discovery that there had
been extensive profit taking from 90 10
ca. Specialists claim that insiders are
opposed to an advance ar this time, as
their plans In relotio to an accumulation
of scrip have not come TO hand.
The Times financial article, which oc-
casionally has effect on market talk Is IN
very bullish strain on the crop outlook
and the consequent effect on Granger
stocks.
Manhattan Is thought to he in favor
able position, although the recent ad-
vance is likely to attract realizing.
The unfavorable factors today are Ms to
the political outlook and gold exports.
There is no London market today.
j. S. Bache * Company say: "If the
market closes up here good today we shall
thereby set the pace for foreign trading
tomorrow. 1t Is understood that we
shall ship from s., 000, 000 TO "a, 900, 600 gold
this week, but these exports are for paE-
poses well understood. II but one-tenth h
of the reports concerning Manhattan Ei-
evated can be relied upon this stock Is
likely TO sell at 12O before 1t reeches the
prices of week ago."
Joseph says: "Something of vital and
beneficial Importance is going on in Man

About al, 800, 600 gold will be shipped
abroad tomorrow.
Councilman Il Day OF Chicago say tnat
the local trade sold Wheat early and
bought later on. The volume of trade Is
very small, and the sentiment bearish on
Wheat. The opinion prevails that quite
a line is held with stop loss orders at go.

vther ball fired at Conners entered the
chest on the right side and pierced the

II will be seen by the results of the
medical examinations that all four shots
took effect, two in each victim Of the IA
tsllty which is contrary To the first ac-
count OF the random shooting and a stray
ball. The friends OF the dead men argue
that there is no ground for seif-defence
on the part OF Nerney because his own
protection did not neccssiiate the shoot
ing of any one man twice.
The bodies win probably be delivered
this evening or tomorrow forenoon to the
families in Pawtucket where the funerals
will take place. And as soon as the re-
sults.of tho autopsy are known officially

THE WIND CHANGED.
BY II a Very Serious COnflagraIion
Was Averted.
Early Morning Fire I'm n summer Col
ony Near New Haven City.

New HvAEN, Conn.,, May 25.-Early
this morning a disastrous fire broke out
in a row OF summer cottages at Wood
mont, a well known suburban resort. A
high wind was blowing and the flames
spread quickly. Help was summoned from
Milford and vicinity, and the entire hor-
ough fought the flames. At o'clock the
fire was raging fiercely and WAS appar=
emily beyond control. Ii was necessary
to tear down two buildings to prevent
still further spread. AT 8 O'Clock the
fire was still burning and spreading, and
at that hour the whole of the little town
seemed doomed.
The trolley line from this city is carry
ing hundreds TO the scene. The loss will
reach many thousands. The summer res
idence of United States Senator Joseph
X. Hawley was in the row in which the
fire started.
The high wind which prevailed at the
start of the fire died down and changed
to direction which prevented greater
loss. Aided by the change.in conditions
the borough people managed TO get con-
troll of the fire after three summer cot
tages and one barn had been destroyed
and several others had been badly DAM
aged.
The fire started from an open fire in the
cottage occupied by Frank Baldwin OF
nicated to two other houses and barn.
The milford fire department was sum-
moned and arriving aided greatly IN
checking the blaze. The femily of p.
t. Hayes Of Waterbury, consisting OF
Mrs. Hayes and five children, narrowly
escaped from one OF the burning houses.
Burt Hotchkiss was badly burned and
sustained a serious strain while fighting &
the fire. At o o'clock this morning the
fire was under control.
