NEW YORK, Jan. pa general con-
so]idation Of all the gas. electric light. and
traction systems Of the city under the su-
preme control OF the Rockefellers Is i'm
pending This is clearly indicated by the
election yesterday OF William H. CurJiss.
private secretary of William Rockefeller,
as Treasurer OF the Third Avenue Rail
way Company. and by the election after a
stormy time of William c. Whitney. An
thony y. Brady. and Thomas F. Ryan as
trustees Of the Consolidated Gas Company.
Mr.. Curtiss' election is taken as proof
positive that the mighty influence Of VIII
liam Rockefeller Is behind Kuhn. Loeb
& Co, in the financing OF the new securi-
ties to take L. the 81 900 OCO Of floating
debt contracted by the change in motive
power Of the Third Avenue road. the ex-
tension Of It's system TO the "Hucklebrrry'
line and the purchase % the Dry Dock
and FOrty-seCOnd Street Railway
It was said on good authority in Wall
Street yesterday that the ROckefeIIers had
made arrangements TO take over the Henry
Hart Third Avenue interests amounting
TO about 80. 900 shares. valued al cOnsidera-
bly, more than 50 900 600
Little is known Of Mr.. Curtiss. except
that he has for years enjoyed the closest
confidence Of the ROckefeilers In view
Of the intention OF the Standard Oil men
to increase their already large holding OF
Third Avenue stock. IL was considered nat
ural that representative should be placed
In the management 20 guard their inter

The addition Of Whitney. Brady. and

Ell Gas Company is regarded as another
Z manifestation OF the power Of the Rookie

been powerful onOugl 10 take the Whit

IL means that there has been a general

NEW YORK. Jan 22.-Chief Of Police
Deyery. moved by protests that have been
made since Olga Nethersolc threatened to
play "SaPpho' in a Broadway theatre, will
be on hand at the opening performance
for the pur2ose Of stopping the play the
moment il becomes offensive to public
morals. He has so expressed himself and
gives it as his opinion that New York is
no place 10 produce the vices Of Paris
or to present the iniqUities and shame
Iessness OF the woman OF the shadow. If
all that / have heard about "SaPpho' is
true" said the chief, and if the sections
OF the play quoted TO me are any criterion
Of what We can expect at the production,
l shall see to Il that a stop is put 10 the
performance at the proper time"
Anthony ComstOCk. Secretary OF the So
ciety for the SuppTe sion OF Vice. was
e, lalIy emphatic in his declaration that
the entire presentation should be halted
The law is clear On that point" said
he anG .hc police are perfectly justified
in calling a halt. There is no option if il Is
as bad as has been reported TO me. Such
a pla.- works great injury. The portions
OF Olga NetheTsOles rendition OF 'SapphO'
that are particularly offensive appear in
almost every act OF the play"

SEEKING EXTRA ARMY PAY.
The Claims of MfnnesOta Volunteer
for More Money.

for More Money.
Adj. Gen. J. B. Lambert Of Minnesota,
arrived in this city last niEht. to secure
authority from the Auditor of the War De-
partment to present the claims in gross OF
certain members of the-Twelfth and Four
teenth regiments OF the Minnesota VoIun-
teers before the department These claims.
it appears. are founded upon the precedent
Of the Thirteenth Regiment Of Minnesota
Volunteers, which instead Of furlough
demanded and received the sixty days
extra pay to which they were entitled by
law, having served outside the country.
1t appears from the report that the
Twelfth and Fourteenth regiments were
granted furlough OF thirty days. and that
never having left the country, they are not
entitled by law to any extra pay More
over the claims could not be presented in
gross as every case adiudicated by the
Auditors Office is considered with reference
TO the individual.
The Auditors Office has received many
applications OF volunteers who think that
they are entitled TO both furlOugh and ex-
ira pay, while the act Of Congress March
4, 1898. stiDulates that the one may be
taken in lieu Of the other. but that il the
furlough is given the extra pay is for
feitei
The State OF Minnesota is entitled to the
money which il has already paid for rails

This includes ordnance furnished. subsist-
ance. medical supplies. quartermasters

assault Osher testified that while in the

various sums of money by ,crayon portrait
artists. and the presence Of this man in
the house was Objectionable. He said that
he ordered the man out, but that he re-
fused to 90.
During the scuffle which followed. Osher
received the cuts Potter strenOusly de-
MED that he deliberately knocked the man
down.

had perfect right to eject an unwelcOme
visitor from his home but that in this

AMERICAN FRUIT IN GERMANY.
Increased Imports and Reduced

Consul General Guenther. OF Frankfort.
sends to the State Department the iufor-
nation that local newspapers publish the
following from Hamburg;
The eyer-inCreasing import Of American
fruits has greatly increased the consump-
tion OF fruits IN Hamburg and vicinity The
prices for fruits which formerly. with the
exception Of a few kinds. were high. have
been somewhat reduced by these importa-
tions. so that IL is now possible for the
middle classes 10 become consumers.
Under these circumstances, excitement
has arisen because the Prussian ministry
has now instituted an enquiry as to
whether protective duty should be levied
on American apples. The association of
Hamburg dealers in fruits and vegetables
has protested vigorously There is no rea-
son to doubt that the Hamburg Chamber
of Commerce will take the same stand and
will do everything 10 prevent the carrying
out OF such a plan"
