Charter Almost Finished.

Two important matters were finished
by the charter commission Tuesday
night. A provision was adopted giving
the people right to have reasonable
rates fixed by corporations holding pub
franchises The revision of such rates
depends on petition signed by five
hundred people. Then the mayor is to
appoint commission of three to fix
reasonable rates. The corporation has
the right of appeal to the city council
to the district court, but in that case
the presumption is that the councils
rate is fair. No franchise may run for
more than five years and every franchise
must carry a gross earnings tax.
AS to the city printing it was finally
decided that the rate should be left at
two-thirds of the full legal rate.

DEER IN THE "cooLEas
A Pair of Them Run Amuck in Streets Of
Relfast and One Is Locked Up.

Belfast, December 8.-Two deer that
strayed into the city this afternoon,
afforded considerable excitement In their
frantic efforts to reach more congenial
surroundings. One OF them gained the
open country but the other, after some
minutes of careenings was finally secured
and looked up at the police station.
The two animals dashed down Main
street, entirely unheralded. but it was
not long before a crowd of men, boys and
dogs were after them. One of them turned
suddenly and plum ged through large
plate glass window Of furniture store,
and running through the store. tried to
butt his way out through window. One
of the men in the store dragged the
animal back 10 the street, but before IT.
could be secured the deer broke away,
and started off in another wild run. Tbs
chase, however, suddenly ended by the
deer's leaping into the river, and two
men going out in boats performed gal
liant rescue and brought the animal Safe
ly ashore. AS all game of this kind is
protected in Waldo county, the deer viii

game has been seen in this vicinity

EaEs SPANISH FlNANcIERINa.
How Regular Troops Were Cheated Out Of
Their Pay.

Havana, December S.-via Key West.
December 8-Serious problems confron1
the last days of Spain's sovereignty in
Cuba. One Of the most delicate and
most difficult of solution is the question
of returning bonds given by civil offic.
ials and employees upon ceasing to hold
office. Many of these are cash bonds fur
nished years ago, the lefundiLg of which
now becomes imperative.
All such moneys having been appropri-
ated and spent, the government is there
fore unable to meet these obligations or
to fulfill the guarantee.
The settlement of the arrears of pay
due the mobiiized and all tGsir regular
troops offered a brilliant opportunity
for mastery nnanciering on the part OF
the military intendant. With money in
hand for full settlement of all pay due
to the troops. the quartermaster general
devised an ingenious plan. Paying the
men off in notes, payable in Madrid he
offered, through trusted agents TO dis
count such notes at twenty or thirty per
cent for cash. AS practically every one
of the 3rregulars and modified troops
will remain on the island, the men Gag
erly embraced this opportunity to have
their notes csshed and handsome profit
therefor accrued to the astute originator
of the scheme. The first mortgages
held by the Spanish bank on municipal
property here amounts to ST, 900, 900.
Propositions for the acquisitions of
these mortgages have been made by Lon
don, New York and Berlin bankers. AL.
though the 1nortgaged property represents
a most solid investment, the Spanish
bank appears reauy to transfer the title
to the foreign corporations. through .
lack of confidence in the stability of the
future government.
