VILLAGE FINANCES.

EDITOR OF JoURNAL:-I your issue
OF last week, notice, is contained a
statement under the title "Corporation
Finances" addressed ITO the Tax
payers and signed by N. V. Hanson,
Chairman Finance Committee.
AS the statement does not so say
directly, l suppose the Chairman in
tended IL to be understood 1t was the
Village Of Perrysburg, of which have
also the honor to be member, although
was not consulted in regard TO the
correctness OF the statement, and
hereby disclaim all responsibilities for
the inaccuracies it contains. 1t is not
often that one member OF Committee
OF n public body like our Village Coun-
Gil, will assume to himself the author
lty to make report upon any matter
within the scope OF the Committees
business without at least consulting
with one or more of his co-committee-
men, but can truthfully say 1t has
been done at least once, to my personal
knowledge. Why l was not consulted
in making this report cannot say un-
less it was believed would not concur
in all its statements, which / however
would have done had / believed them
to be correct.
[ believe am as desirous OF having
the financial affairs OF our Village
justly, honestly and economically ad-
mipistered as the Chairman Of the
Finance Com, il l do not charge in
directly the members OF proceeding
councils with having looted the treas
ury. So far back as my acquaintance
extends my belief is that the members
Of preceding councils were as honest
and were as much interested in the
general welfare OF our village as any
member of the present council, and
they did not feel called upon to inform
our citizens through the public prints
for fear it would never be known. They
were willing to let their acts speak for
themselves.
Although I may be unable to com.
prehend how an Indebtedness of $4,000
can be paid from levy of $4,000 as was
done by this council in 1896, according
to the official report in March 1897 OF
the Finance Committee OF that Council
OF which Com. the Chairman OF the
present Fin. Com, was member, yet
l believe there are very few citizens, if
any, Of our village who would hold me
liable for an illegal disbursement OF
whatever amount was levied and col.
lected.
AS truly stated in the latter report
"this has no parallel in the history of
the town and has required care and
watchfulness." 1t is well that we have
one or more "watchdogs of the treas
ury," who will keep our credit good,
so that we may be able TO pay for the
improvements which we are now ready
for. A. w. DEGNER

COMPOUND FRACTURE.
John Weigenstein Struck on the Head
by Falling Stone

John Weigenstein Struck on the Head
by a Falling Stone.
A falling rock struck John Wejeenstein
on the head in the shaft of the Moonlight
mine last evening, giving him a compound
fracture of the skull which will incapaci-
tate him for labor for some time to come
though 1t Is not believed his injury. Sc
rious though it is. win prove fatal. Weig-
enstein was employed as a machinist at
the Moonlight. Last evening he was sent
to the bottom of the shaft to take meas
urements for some new pipes to be put
In for the pumps. A rope man was sent
along to assist him. While engaged in
taking the measurements piece of rock
fell down the shaft and Weigenstein was
luckless enough to have it strike him on
top of the head. He fell over unconscious
and but for his companion might have
fallen into the stump, 300 feet below and
heen drowned, as the bottom was filled
with water The rope man Immediately
summoned assistance and Weigenstein
was removed to the surface and the am
buiance from st. James hospital sum
moned.
In the meantime he recovered conscious
ness, and arriving at the hospital was able
to walk up stairs to the operating room.
Because of this fact and as he did not
nave anything of the appearance of a man
badly hurt. the attending surgeon was
greatly surprised upon examining the in
jury to the head to find a bad compound
fracture of the skull.

Saved Disastrous Fire on East Park
Street.
"A fire surrounded by rather suspi-
cious circumstances occurred yester-
day morning about o'clock at 1928 East
Park street in a two-story frame build
ing owned by ]. s. Lagro and occupied
on the ground floor by small grocery
store conducted by Mrs. Succo. When
the fire department reached the scene
Chief Flannery and Assistant Chief
Sanger found small blaze in the rear
OF the grocery store. The fire was in
pine partition against which stood a
pine box saturated with coal oil The
stove, in which there was hot fire.
stood only a few feet away. The pro-
prietress of the grocery lived in the
rear of the store with her daughter,
and Chief Flannery states that when
he arrived they were up and dressed.
Chief Flannery stated that he asked
Mrs. Succo if she had any insurance
and she replied she had not, but that
he was subsequently informed by the
owner of the building that there was
$3.50 insurance on the grocery stock,
which was very small one. The de-
partment was so prompt in responding
to the alarm when the fire was dlscov-
cred, that the damage was only nom
inal, but had the firemen been less ex-
peditious a disastrous confiagration
would doubtless have resulted, as the
basement of the building was occu-
pied as a lodging house, filled with
dodgers, most of whom were asleep.
An attempt of an incendiary to burn
down the same building was made one
night last June. when a man was dis
covered in a store room in the base
ment in the act of touching a candle
to the walls, which he had already
saturated with coal oil. When discov-
cred the man dropped his candle, and
running stiff bluff on the dodgers who
found him, got away and was never
captured.
