WEATHER BUREAU
CUTS EXPENSES
viii DiscOntinueCable Service
From West Indies.
REPORTS TO BE MAILED
Small Appropriation Necessitates
Great Economy.
The observations Proved of Inesti-
mabIe Value During the Late
War With Spain.
REPORTS TO BE MAILED

Attached 10 the regular morning :eport
Of the Weather Bureau today was the fol-
lowing statement:
'Note.-The cabling of regular daily OBJ
servations from Weather Bureau West
Indian and South American stations was
discontinued for the present season on
November 16. The stations will be main
tanned during the winter season and the
cable service will be resumed at the be-
ginning of the storm season next year.
In the meantime special reports will be
cabled in the event of the development
of storm conditions"
The chief of the bureau. when asked by
a Times reporter as to the reason for
discontinuing the cabling of the daily
ports, said that il was on account of the
expense and that as the hurricane season
was confined almost exclusively to the
months of August September and October
no harm was likely 10 result to the Amer
lean naval forces or shipping in West
Indian and South American waters.
As a precautionary measure the serv-
ice had been continued up 10 the present
time, and even now If any extraordinary
phenomena takes place it would be ca
bled to the bureau at once.
1t is not intended to discontinue the
daily observations but they will be mailed
to the bureau instead of being cabled.
The cost of cabling averages 80 cents per
word, and as there are number of sta
tiOns in Cuba and Porto Rico the ex-
pense is very large. The last Congress ap-
propriated only $4,000 for the equipment
and maintenance of these stations. and the
greatest economy is therefore necessary.
During the recent war the information
given TO the naval forces by this serv ce
was of inestimable value as it kept them
constantly advised to the weather in
dicationS for the next twenty-four hours.
The services of the West Indian and
South American Bureau are not alone in
tended to be solely beneficial to the ship
ping interests, but also to the agrcultu
raj interests of Cuba and Porto Rico.
Daily observations are taken as to the
amount of rainfall, temperature and soil
conditions.
The agricultural development of Cuba
and Porto Rico contains great possibili-
ties and it will be seen that by these OBJ
servations a greater familiarity with the
soil and climate will be acquired.
The cabling of daily reports will be re-
sumed al the beginning of the storm sea-
son next year.

at the expiration of that time, if the
plaintiff should so desire, the note would

After this agreement Mckee says that
with the knowledge of Staples he went
to Europe in September, 1897, and re-

returned to Washington In November he
Immediately called upon Staples for the
purpose of taking up his promissory note
and receiving the shares of stock he had
purchased. Up to this time $3.50 had been
paid Staples as dividends upon the stock
Staples Informed Mckee that he had sold
the stock for the sum of $4,000, and re-
fused to receive the money offered him
by Mckee. He also alleges that he had
no notice whatever of the sale of the
stock, and at the time he demanded the
stock he had purchased from Staples it
had increased in value from 81. 200 to s1S,-
600, and that the difference, s6123, was not
paid him by Staples, and since that time
has further increased in value.

tice Cole.
The suit of David R. Mckee against
Oren G. Staples for $4,000 came up for a
hearing today before Justice Cole in
Criminal Court No. l. After hearing the
complaint and answer, and arguments by
counsel. Worthington and Heald for the
plaintiff, and Birney and Woodward for
the defendant, the court took the matter
under advsement and will render a de-
cision Friday next.
The suit is the outgrowth of a business
transaction between the parties, involving
the transfer of 100 shares of Mergentha' er
Linotype stock from the defendant to the
plaintiff. In his complaint, filed June &c
last, Mckee alleges that on April 15 1897
Staples was the owner of 100 shares of
Mergenthaler stock which he offered to
him for the sum of s12 200, or at the rate
Of $l22 per share. 1t was agreed, he says
that he should pay for the stock with his
promissory note for s12.20O, payable in
three months, with the understanding that
it could be renewed if he so desired
1t was also provided and agreed be-
tween him and Staples, he said, that, if
his promissory note should not be paid
at maturity, the defendant should have
the right to sell the stock and apply the
proceeds TO the payment of the amount
due on the note and further that the de-
fendant might become the purchaser of
the stock and hold the same
On July 10, 1897, Mckee says he notified
Staples that at the time of the maturity
of his note, he would give him another
for three months, in renewal of the first

note of April 10, 1897, should be consider

PONIES IN HARNESS
DECORATED WITH BLUE
Interest Keeps Up in the Exhibi-
ton of Equine Excellence ut the
Madison Square Garden.

New York, Nov. 1S-It is conceded on
all sides that the horse show this week
has been a marked triumph for the horse
and every one admits that he has not had
to share his honors with human beings so
much as in past years. The horse show
gives signs of being taken seriously and
the association formed by exhibitors is
pointed out as a token of the fact that
American interest in the horse is to move
on higher levels.
Today's gloomy weather had little effect
on the ardor of the faithful horse lovers
who had gathered at the garden in large
numbers in time to witness the beginning
of today's program.
After the usual exercise hour, a class
of ponies in harness were brought before
the judges. Mrs. r. F. Carmons Jill took
the blue ribbon; John S. Bratton's Little
Boy Perfect, the second prize, and Mrs.
Carmon's Jack, the third.
The ponies retiring, the regular program
for the day, which was almost clean
sweep for hackneys in the morning was
taken up.
