ASKS MORE MONEY.
Park Board Wants Its Allowance
Increased Next Year.

President Wheelock, of the park board,
was authorized at meeting held last
evening to request the conference COM
mittee to place In the budget for next
year at least $55.000, and, If possible, S., 900
more than this sum. The board needs
an increase of $4,000 in its appropriation
in order to carry out the Improvement
of Lexington avenue; to reimburse 1t
for expenditures In caring for Summit
avenue boulevard, and to erect a new
stable and tool house at Como park
The bequest of Martha L. Griswold,
who, in her will, left 81 coo to be used In
placing a memorial fountain in Summit
park, was declined by the board. The
executor of the will, George Hunsacker
Informed the board that the estate did
not equal the requests, and all that the
board could have was about $780, as this
was the basis on which the other Iega-
tees were being settled with. The board
decided the amount would be inadequate
forSthe purpose named and declined the
beQuest.
A resolution thanking the Butler-Ryan
company for a marble drinking fountain
donation was adopted, and the superin-
tendent was directed to set up the same
at Como park in the spring. The fea-
ture about the fountain is that cups are
not needed, a Jet of water bubbling I'D
to allow the thirsty person to quench the
thirst. The fountains are used with
great success in Boston and other cities.
The city engineer submitted maps show
Ing the land and improvements along
Como avenue, from Rice to Dale street
1t is the intention and plan of the board
to have the avenue widened between the
two streets mentioned by taking ten feet
on each side of the avenue The owners
west OF the bridge are willing to give
the land necessary for the widening pro-
V1ding no assessment is laid against
them. From the bridge east to Rice
street the board expect more difficulty
IN making the improvement. At the next
meeting resolution will be adopted re-
questfng the council to pass a preliminary
order directing the board Of public works
to proceed with the widening Of the ave-
nue. from the bridge to Dafe street. After
this has been done the park board are Of
the opinion the widening of the eastern
part of the avenue will be more easily ae-
compliShed.
The plan Of Supt. Nussbaurner to erect
stable and tool house at Como and have
the board own its own teams was dis
cussed. The plan, as figured out by the
superintendent, would save 30 per cent
or the amount now paid out for hiring
teams The building of the barn and tool
house is estimated at $4,000; the purchase
of eight horses. $1,O0O $500 for four wag-
ons, and 500 for harness. The plan will
not be carried out unless the conference
committee will increase the appropria-
ton In the budget for next year at least
$1,000 for the purpose

Der, amounting to 81, 1888. 20, was approved

drew away from them for a lap. placing
his team IN first place by that distance

Fischer broke loose and started out to

Runaway Electric on Chestnut

For the second time since the local
street railway service was inaugurated
Saltwater people have had the oppor-
tunity to witness the work Of runaway

1t did. The South Third street car was
coming down Chestnut street at the usual
speed and when the car reached Second

able to hold It, He applied the brake, but
1t refused 10 hold the ear and he reversed
the current. The car tore down the
street at rapid pace and when it
reached the curve al the corner of Main
ana Chestnut streets it left the track and
started across the street toward Mosier's

the store at the time expected to see the
car crash into the front end of the store
but when it struck the curb 1t DETECTED

bruises. The telegraph pole was broken
into splinterS and the car was consi6-

there was a brilliant display Of electricity
as the wires burned out over the street

BERLIN, Dec. 4-The reichstag today
discussed the governments currency bill
providing for an increase of silver coins
until the amount reached the proportion
OF IA marks per head of the population.
DR.. Won Thtelman, secretary Of the treas
ury, said the increase was imperative,
adding that the other pieces would at the
same time be withdrawn from circula-
tion Germany, in 1897, he continued, i'm
ported 100000, and in 1899, up to Sept
80, 100000 marks in gold more than she
exported.
Regarding the maintenance of the gold
standard and the stoppage of the gold
output Of South Africa, he asked what
would be the result If the war lasted
longer than a year.
Herr Welitzein. Conservative, said the
Beers were gallant defenders, but also
held the keys Of their gold deposits, and
must cut off much of Germany's small
gold supply.
Herr Keiche, president of the Reichs-
bank. pointed out that all the great states
had now adopted the gold standard,
which, he added, settled the question of
metailism
Herr Arendt. secretary Of the German
Bimetallic league, attributed the rise in
the exchange rate to the scarcity of gold.
DR.. Seidt said he regarded the interna-
tiona1 monetary convention anticipated
by DR.. Arendt as impossible of ratifca-
ton, and there was absolutely no pros
