TWO MILLION SHORT.
Affairs of the Borough Of Brooklyn
In Rad Shape.

NEW YORK, Sept. 2S.-The exanina-
ton of the financial departments OF the
various municipalities, which will be
consolidated into the Greater New
York, has revealed a shortage of from
81 SOC, goo to $4,000, 600 in Brooklyn. I'm
less special legislation is obtained at
Albany to prevent it, this shortage will
be saddled upon the taxpayers of the
greater city Under a clause of the
charter creating the Greater New York
the comptroller Of the present city OF
New York was required to examine and
pass upon the accounts of the financial
officers of the cities and towns that
are included in the different boroughs.
Two months ago, Comptroller Fitch ap-
pointed number of expert accountants
to do this work. The accountants Sc
lected to go through the books Of
Brooklyn found matters in bad shape.
One of the first things encountered was
q discrepancy of s., 100000 between the
books of the comptroller and those of
the registrar Of arrears of taxes. This
was found to represent the unpaid
taxes Of Brooklyn, which had been al
lowed to accumulate year after year,
until the amount due the city is esti-
mated at from S1.500,000 to $4,000, 600.
The largest part of this amount is said
to be for personal taxes, and While it
is included among the assets OF the city
Of Brooklyn, it is non-callectible.

the national congress was called at
IL o'clock. The meeting was largely
for the purpose of outlining the work
of the convention, but it was decided
to"leave the matter of programme and
papers to a committee composed of the
president and secretary of the congress.
1t was decided that the president Of
the congress elected at Phoenix last
year, c. B. Booth, of California, act
SIS president of the present congress
until his successor could be elected, and
that he appoint the necessary Secretar-
les and assistants. There was no par
ticular contest, but the action was con-
sidered a victory for the far West.
II was 2 p. m. when President Booth
called the congress to order in Assem-
bly, hall Of the University of Nebraska.
On the platform, besides the officers Of
the congress, were Gov. Holcomb,
Mayor Graham and Chancellor Mac
Lean, of the university. Rev. ]. G. Mail
ley offered prayer. Chairman of the
National Committee Moses announced
the secretaries, and Secretary Heintz
read the call for the meeting of the
congress. President Booth introduced
Gov. Holcomb, who welcomed delegates
in an address of some length. Chancel-
lor MacLean seconded, on behalf Of the
educational interests of the state, the
welcome of the governor Judge
Emery, OF Kansas, responded to an ad-
dress of welcome on behalf of the con-
gress.
The question of the possibility of
locating and tracing underground
streams of water was the subject OF
an extended and carefully prepared pa
per by DIR. J. G. Sutton, of Rushsyl-
vania. o. Dr. Sutton at the outset adj
n1itted that his subject was an unpopu-
lar one, inasmuch as it invaded field
heretofore held by waterwitches, or
those claiming to be endowed with dl-
vine power aided by a forked stick. His
insistence was, however, that, by fol-
lowing the ordinary rules of scientific
research, the location Of subsurfaca
water was possible, having no connec-
ton with superstition and other rub
bish surrounding the subject.
DR.. Sutton's paper was the last OF
the afternoon, and a business session
followed, but was limited to the ap-
pointment Of committees on permanent
organization and resolutions. Caiifor-
MIA delegates head the list on the lat
ter, but it is claimed to have no 'signl-
ficance, inasmuch as the committee will
meet and select it's own chairman. The
congress will reassemble tomorrow
morning at $50. Tonight the members
of the congress were rendered an IN
formal reception at the capitol build
ing by Gov. Holcomb, other state Off
GERS and Lincoln citizens.

ALL ROADS WANTED 1T.


Scramble for thee business to the
Underwriters, Convention.
The fire underwriters,b convention in
Chicago has had the, effect of disturbing
the Chicago lines even more than re-
ports have recently credited them with
in the line of passenger Generalization.
The lines, and the stronger lines fought
the hardest, all wanted. the Twin City
delegation, and as a result all sorts
of rates were made, and it is charged
that all sorts of excessive commissions
were paid to get the business.
The authorized rate was fare and
third for the round trip, but although
this was slashed, it was at first thought
that yesterday would end the trouble,
being the last day named for the rate,
but several of the roads have announc-
ed that the rate still goes, and passen-
gers to the Windy City yesterday, who
meant to return, could do so just as
cheaply as their next door neighbors
could make the one way trip. The
statement was made late yesterday aft,
ernoon, that a rate Of less than the one
way rate was quoted for the round trip.
The tickets are good returning until

SHORT-HAUL CASES.
Two Decisions by the Interstate
Commerce Commission.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2S,-The inter-
state commerce commission today an
nounced its decision of two long and
short-haul cases in an opinion by Conn.,
missioner Knapp, in the case of FeweU
against the Alabama & Vicksburg rail-
way and others, and In the matter of
coal rates charged by the Alabama s,
ern railway companies. The cases in
volved the transportation of coal from
Corona, Birmingham and Blocton, Ala,
to local points in Mississippi on the
Alabama & Vicksburg railway at high
er rates than were charged for longer
distances over the same line to jack
son and Vicksburg, Miss.
The various carriers from Alabama
mines to jackson agreed upon the
rate to that place, which rate was less
for each line than was charged on coal
to shorter distance points over the
same line in the same direction. This.
the opinion holds, violates the fourth
section of the interstate commerce act.
Coal from Alabama mines to Vicks-
burg must go by railroad. The compe-
tition of such coal in Vicksburg is with
coal brought over long distances down
the Ohio and Mississippi rivers from
the Pittsburg, Pa, district. This COM
petition was held not to be rail and
water competition for transportation
from the same locality, but the compe-
tition of mines or markets for supply
ing coal to Vicksburg, the force and
effect of which is determined by COM
mercial considerations peculiar to the
business of shippers, and wholly dis
connected from the circumstances and
conditions under which transportation
is conducted.
The commission further rules that the
long and short-haul clause Of the law
applies only when the traffic is lover
the same line" and lin the same direc-
ton. and to Transportation under sub
stantially similar circumstances and
conditions" and 1.-The shorter" must
be included within 1.-The longer" dis
lance; and that, Notwithstanding these
limitations, any injustice or hardship
which may result to carriers from COM
pliance with the long and short-haui
rule is removable by the commission
upon application by such carriers I'M
der the procedure authorized by the
proviso to the fourth section.

Omaha's Action Against C. w
Fisher, Ex-Paymaster.

Omaha's Action Against T.. W..
Fisher, Ex-Paymaster.
A stipulation of dismissal was filed
yesterday in the United States circuit
court of appeals in the case Of the Chi
cago, st. Paul. Minneapolis & Omaha
Railroad company against Charles
Fisher, formerly paymaster of the cor
poration. The complaint set forth that
Mr. Fisher was appointed paymaster
Of the Omaha in August, 1889, and
alleged that out Of the large sums of
money entrusted to him for disburse-
ment from time to time, on account Of
the company, defendant had retained
$5,657.16.
In his answer, Mr.. Fisher affirmed
that from the date of his appointment
as paymaster to the time of his sum-
mary dismissal, he disbursed for the
company and on it's account, total Of
about $4,000, 900; that his salary was
$3.50 per month; that while the vouchers
returned by him to- the company
amounted in the aggregate to a sum
less than the amount SO received, all
of the moneys were paid out for and on
account of the company, and that at
the time of his dismissal he had re-
ceived for himself not more than $50
above his salary of $3.50 month. The
stipulation ends the suit to recover the
amount Of the alleged deficit.

THE OLD WAY
Of Treating Dyspepsia and IHdiges-
ton by Dieting a BarbarOms and
Useless One.

Of Treating Dyspepsia and Indiges-
ton by Dieting a Barbaroms and
Useless One.
We say the old way. but really it is
a very common one at present time
and many dyspeptics and physicians
as well consider the first step to take
in attempting to cure indigestion is to
diet, either by selecting certain foods
and rejecting others or to greatly d.
miniSh the quantity usually taken, in
other words the starvation plan is by
many supposed to be the first essen
tial.
The almost certain failure of the
starvation cure for dyspepsia has been
proven time and again, but still the
moment Dyspepsia makes its appear
ance q course of dieting is at once
advised.
All this is radically wrong. It is
foolish and unScientific to recommend
dieting or starvation to a man suffer
ing from Dyspepsia, because 1ndlges-
ton itself Starves every organ and eV-
cry nerve and every fibre in the body.
What the Dyspeptic wants is abund-
ant nutrition, which means plenty of
good wholesome, well-cooked food and
something to assist the weak stomach
to digest it. This is exactly the pur
pose lOf Which, foluo4 . D5opC pf'A$S CIV
lets are adapted and this is the method
by which they cure the worst cases Of
Dyspepsia, in other words the patient
eats plenty of wholesome food and
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets digest it
for him. In this way the system Il
nourished and the overworked stomach
rested, because the tablets will digest
the food whether the stomach works or
not. One of these tablets will digest

The adoption of the Sebastian ticket
by the Western roads for the inter-
changeable mileage ticket traffic is not
final, and should that ticket prove I'M
satisfactory after a short trial. some
thing else will be tried. The majority
of the roads, however, are of the opin-
ion that the ticket will answer the pur-
pose admirably There is no question
but that the ticket will reduce scalp
ing to the minimum, as there is nothing
which the scalpers can get hold of to
place on the market. If the ticket
proves as satisfactory as it is expected
that it will. an effort will be made to
have all the large roads in the country
join the bureau, which issues the tick
cts and then there will be but one form

ADDING TO rrs EQUIPMENT.
Milwaukee Making Some Important

The Milwaukee road is. making some
large and important additions to it's
equipment this fall. The shops at Mil
waukee have already turned out and
put in service 200 coal cars, $50 palace
stock cars and 100 large carriage and
furniture cars. They are now engaged
in building 1000 standard box cars,
turning them out at the rate of ten a
day These are each of $4,000 pounds
capacity and are being used as fast as
delivered to handle the grain crop.
The Milwaukee has also bought
twenty new and very heavy locomo-
tives. Two of these will be used in the
passenger service between Chicago and
Milwaukee, where the schedule time he
tween the city limits calls for a speed
of 56.4 miles per hour. The other eigh-
teen engines will be used in hauling
heavy freight trains.

The six new wheat warehouses, which
the Great Northern road is building in

the storage capacity along that line by
something like 800, 900 bushels In view
of the annually Increasing wheat crop
in Washington, and the fact that the
presence of these mamoth warehouses
reduce the tendency to car shortage,
it was decided to build half a dozen of
