These figures speak for themselves. The
apparent increase of $500 in the expenditures
for the almshouse is accounted for by the fact
that large part of the expenses of the institu-
ton under the old management, paid out
of the cash in the treasury and did not appear
in the annual statement, while under the new
management every dollar expended appears
in the account.
1t - confidently asserted that the public
roads are in better condition in 1896 and S97
than they We're in 1892 and 1893, yet there
was annual saving of over $4,000 per
annun and this with other large reductions
shown enable the County Commissioners with
51T,oO0 less per annum at their command, 10
devote at the demand of the taxpayers $4,000
more each year to the public schools without
increasing the burdens Of taxation.
The above statement is submitted in the be.
lief that it demonstrates First, that careful
oversight OF the County's affairs has resulted
in II large saving to the taxpayers, and:
second, that due regard for the best interests
of our County demands that no backward
steps be taken in the management of the Com
missioners' office. w. II. HARLAN.

An Excellent Showing for The Presen;
County Commissioners.


BELAIR, Sept. l3th.-Four years have passed
since the taxpayers of Hartford County made
Il change in the County Commissioner office,
under the belief that better methods would
produce better results and at the same time
effect ii saving to the county treasury.
IL is proper therefore that the taxpayers
should have Il statement showing succinctly
what, if anything, has been accomplished by
the change.
The County Commissioners published Il
statement in March 1891! giving the result of
the examination of the Couutys affairs us Of
November 27th, 1898, the day the new Board
assumed control. This statement showed that
the retiring Board had incurred debts after the
close OF the levy of 1913, amounting to SIS
9S3 % which had to be levied for in 1894 and
had also expended 3G,s76.ss of the $40, 700
levied to mend the public roads in 1891. leav-

SCHOONER OGDEN IN COLLISION.
She Hns a Narrow Escape from De-
sfructfOu.

PHILADELPHIA, August s0.-Badly
shattered and with loss OF flying jibboom
and bowsprit and other damage, the we'll
known three-mastcd schooner Kate H..
Ogden, Captain Wilbert. bound from New
port News for Fall River syith a cargo OF
coal. was towed into this port for repairs
tonight by the tug Ivanhoe, which had
picked her up at sea yesterday helpless.
The Ogden sailed from Newport News
on August 23d, and the night OF August
24th. shortly after 10 O'Clock. she was in
collision with the huge British steamship
Morse King, Captain Saunders, which was
skirting the coast down on her way from
Antwerp via Boston TO Baltimore.
The collision occurred off Hog Island.
and as the Ogden, whose Identity was not
known until tonight disappeared, 1t was
believed by those on board the British
craft that she had gone down with all
on board. All Captain Wilbert knew was
that he had been run into by an unknown
ship, and he was very reticent concerning
the accident when questioned. IL was
a narrow escape.
Captain Saunders. of the Morse King,
has made a report Of the accident, in
which he claims that all the blame is to
be attached TO the schooner, whose
course, he says was changed contrary to
all navigation rules. These are emphatic
in their meaning that all sailing vessels
must hold their course and allow the
steam vessels to clear them.
