BUFEALo IN THE BIG LEAGU UE.
Belief That That City VIII Succeed Cleve-
land In the Circuit.


Buffalo, N. Y, Nov. 10.-Nick Young,
president of the National league of
Baseball associations, and Pat Powers,
president of the Eastern league, arriv-
ed here to-day en- route for Chicago,
where the National leagues annual
meeting will begin on Thursday. TAX
en- in connection with the many stories
afloat to the effect that Buffalo or De-
troit will succeed Cleveland in the
major league, the visit was looked upon
as significant, but Mr.. Powers said
that it was nothing but break in the
long journey westward.
Besides, Mr.. Powers himself wished
to have a few words with Magnate
Franklin in respect to the affairs OF
the Eastern league in general and those
of the Buffalo and Toronto clubs in
particular He seemed to be of the
opinion that Toronto would retain Its
place in the Eastern league, as num-
ber of capitalists are about to interest
themselves in the club. If their Ell
forts come to naught, one of four
cities is, a. possibility. These are Wor-
cester Fall River, New Haven and
Hartford. Mr.. Powers thought that no
mistake would be made in choosing
any one of the four
Mr.. Powers was chary about pre-
dieting any changes in the National
league circuit, and seemed to be OF the
opinion that the status quo would be
maintained.

GUARDING CITY'S MONEY
BOARD or FINANCE GAVE COMMITS
SIONERS 4 HEARING.

Appropriations Asked For by the Police,
Fire and Lamp Departments Several
Thousand Dollars More Than Those
of Last Year-The Claims of the Boards
Strongly Urged.
The board of finance considered last
evening the estimates of the police, fire
and lamp departments for the ensuing
year. Commissioners Moran and I'LL.
man and Superintendent Smith were
heard first in behalf of the police esti-
mates. The members of the board and
the superintendent were closely ques-
toned by the committee.
Alderman Rourke's pencil was close
at hand when each estimate was read.
1t took the combined power of the two
commissioners and the head of the po-
lice department to persuade the
doughty calculator from the Seventh
ward that everything had been calcu-
lated at bedrock, and but little could
be taken from the estimates submitted.
One of the lists, at least, provided
by the auditor for the use of the mem
bers of the board of finance is consid-
erably marked, and is slowed away in
Alderman Rourke's breast pocket for
reference, when the matters come up
for final action. The total estimates
this year are about $4,000 more than
last year.
A recaptiulation of the estimates of
the police department and a COM
parison with last year are as follows:

BosroN,s SHOCKING BAccHAsrE.
Now Possible 1t May be Admitted to the
Public Library Courtyard

Boston, Nov. 10.--There is a possibili-
ty that the statue of Bacchante may be
given a place in the courtyard of the
public library. The trustees of the Ii
brary have asked the art commission
to reconsider it's decision against the
propriety of placing the statue in the
place for which it was intended by Ar
chitect McKim, and the commissioners
promised to consider the matter of re-
consideration. This action of the trus-
tees is based on the fact that the com
mission has never seen anything but
copy of the statue and the hope is ex-
pressed that after it has viewed the
original it's views will be so far modi-
fed as to admit it to the seclusion of
the courtyard

The fire department was represented
by Commissioners Walker and Mac
donald and Chief Engineer Kennedy.
Ten additional men will be put on
this year, provided the board of finance
include in the appropriation a sufficient
amount of money to pay them. This
will give the members of the depart
ment a longer vacation than it has
been possible to give them heretofore
Included in the estimates is an ap-
preparation Of $4,000 for an engine
house in the Twelfth ward, Fair Haven
Chief Kennedy explained that the pro-
lection against fire in that portion of
the city was entirely inadequate. Fif-
teen thousand people live in the E1ev-
enth and Twelfth wards and they are
exposed to the danger of fire to a de-
gree that should be at once remedied.
When the bill for sundrles was called
the demand of the board to have it ex-
planned was unanimous. Acting Clerk
Fancher read an ftemized account of
what was included in the sundry col
umn last year, and it included vari-
ETY. of items from a bar of soap to the
expenses Oh CHleI heHHeuy anu one
commissioner to Salt Lake City.
This was inventoried as necessary
travelling expenses"
THAT you will not need, chief, this
year" said Alderman Rourke, to which
the chief replied. mo: the association
will be@here this year, and we want
81 500 with which to entertain them. !"
Both commissioners and the chief
thought if they were allowed to use
the unexpended balance, as has been
requested, the department would need
so much less of the appropriation ask
ed for next year
The total amount asked this year by
the department is Sal, 1856. This will
probably be cut down, as the commits
sioners and Chief Kennedy conceded
few of the items last evening. The to-
tai amount asked for last year was
$116,625.
The necessities of the lamp committee
were illustrated by drawings by In
spector Henry Hopkins The depart
ment this year asks $SS, las. Last year
it was $75 485.50.

How to Prevent Pneumonia.

At this time Of the year cold is very
easily contracted, and if left to run it's
course without the aid of some reliable
cough medicine is liable to result in
that dread disease, pneumonia. We

cough or cold than Chamberlin's Cough
Remedy. We have used it quite ex-
tensively and it has always given
entire satisfaction. -Olagah, Ind. Ter.

Offensive
(jatapPh.

Catarrh is seemingly one of the
most complicated of ailments, and
one which the doctors are absolutely
unable to cure. The reasons for
this are easily explained. Catarrh is
a blood disease, and only a blood
remedy can effect it. The various
sprays, douches and washes which
are employed as a local treatment,
may, for time, alleviate the
trouble, but no one ever knew of
such treatment producing a cure.
They can not reach the seat of the dis
ease, as the experience of many
sufferers will prove; nothing can do
so except a real blood remedy.
In the treatment of Catarrh, S. S.
S. has demonstrated the fact that it
reaches deep-seated diseases, which
other remedies can not touch.
