INTERSTATE COMMERCE DE-.
CISIONS ON FREE PASSES.

The Inter state Commerce Act, sec.
tions 2 and %, forbidding determinations
and free passes, are copied by sections
4and 25 OF the n. Q. r. e. Commission
Act except that the N. O. Act adds G.
paragraph making 1t punishable by a
than S.. 900 for each and every ffsnc. -.
The decisions of the Inter state Com
mission, composed of five eminent law
yers, and presided over by Judge T.
N. Cooley, author Of Constitutional
Limitations, is OF especial interest,
since Judge Robinson's recent charge
to the grand jury Of Wake.
A synopsis of these decisions are pre-
sented below.

that service to be impartially rendered.
1t asserts the right of every citizen to

street Car Mail service Trnnsrerrsa.

The control of the street car mail service of
this city was transferred from Victor ]. Brad
ley to IN Van Colt yesterday. This is a
result OF a conference held by Mr.. Bradley with
the Postmasters of several of the larger cities in
his district, which covers the Middle States. and
with the Second Assistant Postmaster General.
at which it was agreed that the street car service
would be improved by bringing 1t into closer
touch with other branches of the local postal
system, of which 1t really forms a part. A
similar transfer has also been made to the Post
masters of Brooklyn, Philadelphia, and Roch.

The transfer in this city will result in no ma
terial change in the general personnel Of the

the next fiscal year they will re Give their
salaries from the Railway Mail Service allow

Hebrew Charities Will Investigate Cases of
Alleged Distress This winter.
Tho United Hebrew Charities, which has been
imposed on in previous winters by clamorous
tales Of distress from garment workers who
were really in fairly good circumstances, has
adopted a new policy for this winter. 1t was
stated yesterday that Nathaniel Rosenau, man.
ager of the United Hebrew Charities, had writ
ten to Meyer Schoenfeld. leader of the east side
~tailors, asking him to cooperate with the so.
ciety In determining really deserving cases. 1t
was said last evening that a Cherry street press.
er had So impressed the society with q tale OF al
legged distress that he had received $240 since
last January. 1t was also stated. in reference
to this case, that an investigation showed the
presser and his wife to have been earning from
had kept and paid a domestic during that time.
Another case, where an Attorney street tni.her
is said TO have received $3.50 in various sums, is
to be investigated.
Investigations would likely put a stop to pro-
fessional begging among the garment workers.
Clamoring for relief, he says. Is not q general
characteristic Of the cast side tailors. which
makes 1t easier for persons who have no sense
of shame to 'outshout deserving cases.
Several years ago, when there was a period
of distress on the east side, several Of the east
side restaurant keepers advertised themselves
persons. During one of these dinners some one
came in with a report that a bank In Canal
street had suspended payment. Two Of the
alleged hungry unemployed started a.tedo up lss SiiaPP ? ped
books were, and exclaimed:
my God! I'm ruined"
Then they ran out. 1t was q false alarm, and
they did not return.

Projectors or . Downtown Street Railroad APP
ply Again for Leave to Build.
An effort has been made to revive tho scheme
of building the Fulton. Wall Street and Cort-
landt Street ferries surface road. which first
came into existence in 1855. An application
was recently made to Gen. Coils for permission
to open Wall, Pine, Liberty, Cortlandt and Will
liam streets and Maiden lane for the purpose of
laying tho tracks. and the matter is still pend
ing in the Public Works Department. In tho
papers accompanying the application the OFF,
GERS of the company assert that the resolution
giving them the franchise was passed by the
Board OF Aldermen on July "a, 1885. and al
though it was not approved by the Mayor he
did not disapprovo 1t, therefore the resolution
became u law. The officers also declare that
they have obtained the consents Of property
holders owning moro than 80 per cent. of the
frontage along the route, and that nothing now
stands between them and the construction Of
sioner of Public Works. The amount Of tho
capital stock Is stated to be- 800. 600. divided
into 1000 shares of 800 each.
The Board of Directors named Is as follows:
John 8. Foster, Gilbert NJ. Spier, Jr., c. e. Loew.
ID. ID. Conover, John keenan,. II. ). Beattie, and
Edward Kearney, all OF New York. Edward
Selleck of As William street Is now the Presi
dent of the concern, and ID. Franklin De Freece
the Secretary.
The application was referred by Gen. Coils to
Deputy Commissioner Wilds. The latter said
no thought the document was absurd on Its
face and that the company would have TO wait
o very long time before the permit was granted.

Carlsbad Water
a Natural Alternative

Carlsbad Water is in no sense
a mere purgative, as most people
believe, but is an Alternative and
eliminat;ve remedy, which dis
solves tenacious bile, allays irrita-
ton and removes obstruction by
aiding nature, and not by sudden
and excessive stimulation, as most
cathartic remedies do. Its action
is certain and a cure when effected
is permanent. Not infrequently
patients have to use the Carlsbad
Sprudel Salt, in addition to the
water, as a laxative.
Beware of limitations. The gen
uine Carlsbad Water and Carlsbad
Sprudcl Salt must have the seal
of the City of Carlsbad and the
signature of "Ersner& Mendelson
Co., sole agents. New York;" on
every label.
