Bolivar in a new dress will find himself more
at ease among us than formerly. He used to
look like a rheumatic bronze patriot poured
into a hand-me-down military costume of the
seventeenth century. In his revised aspect he
will do credit to both countries-the one that
gives and the one that takes. He is to shine
forth in the same metal distributed in new out
lines this time the correct ones. inviting no
rectifca,ion of boundaries. Its sculptor wishes
the image to be placed in Union Square near

for Constantinople from New York
early last week.
The secretary Of state received about

minister that he was about to proceed

that Selfeddin Bey, first secretary of
the legation, would act as charge

report.
State department officials deny that
anything but the most cordial relations
exist between the representatives of
the two countries, but this denial is
naturally weakened by the fact that

SADDLED UPON TAXPAYERS.
Unpaid and Uncollectible Taxes Had Been

New York. Sept. 2S.-The Herald

The examination of the financial de-
partments of the various municipal
tiles which will be consolidated into
the Greater New York has revealed a
shortage of from sl,600,000 to s., 600, 600
in Brooklyn. Unless special legislation
Is obtained Mt Albany to prevent It,
this shortage will be saddled upon the
taxpayers of the Greater city.
Under a clause of the charter Great
ing the Greater New York the comp
troller of the present city of New York
was required to examine and pass up
on the accounts of the financial off,
GERS Of the cities and town that are
included in the different boroughs.

pointed number of expert account
ants to do this work. The account
ants selected to go through the books
OF Brooklyn found matters in bad
shape. one Of the first things en-
countered was discrepancy of ST.
SOC, 600 between the books of the comp
troller and those of theregistrar of
arrears of taxes. This was found to
represent the unpaid taxes of Brook
Ign, which had been allowed to ac-
cumulate year after year until the
amount due the city is estimated at
from Sl,500,0OO to $2,000,000. The larg-
est part OF this amount Is said to be
for personal tax, and while 1t is in
cluded among the assessments of the
city of Brooklyn, 1t Is non-collectible.
