SALARIES HAVE BEEN CUT.
Captains of Sound Liners Affected by
 a New Schedule.

t
 Salaries of captains of the Sound steamers of the fleet of the Consoli- dated road have been cut in a recent order that has been promulgated from the headquarters of the marine dis trict The only ones who escape the reduction are those who command the palatial steamers of the fleet running on the line between New York and Fall River, among which are the Puri- tan, Priscilla, Pilgrim and Plymouth. Those who command the steamers on the Providence line and the Chapin and Peck now running on the route be- tween New Haven and New York are affected by the cut Those on the steamers of the Norwich line are not affected yet, it is said, but it is not cer- tain that they are immune under the new order of things.
 The old side wheeler, the Providence, one of the oldest boats on the Sound lines and which for years has been running on the Providence line, is to be sold by the company, if a purchaser can be found to pay the price that is asked for her The boat is now laid up at Providence and is being stripped of her furnishings. The Providence was inspected last week by representa- tives of the Maine Central railroad, which wanted a boat for carrying freight, but the company has since se- lected the steamer Long Island.

TRACING BL0NDIN's TRUNKS
An Expressman Says He Checked
 One to Springfield.


 One to Springfield.
 Boston, Mass, June 15.-The belief that Mrs Margaret Blondin was mur- dered in her room at 43 Green street on the evening of April 27 is gaining ground in police circles in this city. The congressman who took the Blondin trunk away from the boarding house on Green street was William Dean. Dean remembered the incident as it was raining hard and as the man who engaged him rode with him.
 Dean says he saw check placed on the trunk before he left. Bfondin had ticket for Montreal, Blondin met no woman at the station. The baggage checker at the station corroborates Deans story.
 Special Officer Chapman of the Joy street police station, this afternoon, al so found the congressman who called for Blondin's trunk at the latters lodgings on Howard street last Wednesday. He took 1t to the South Union station. The expressman told the police officials that he checked the trunk to Springfield.
 Word reached Lowell yesterday af- ternoon that the state police have giv- en up hope of locating Wilfred Blondin in Montreal and will give their atten- tion to Lowell and vicinity. There is a theory that Blondin had the aid of some other person in this vicinity.

BROOKLYN BRIEFS

 Miss Sadie Kennedy, student at St Vincent's convent. Georgetown, is spending the summer vacation at her home on North Leonard street.
 A number of his friends rendered William Siepert a reception at his home on Riverside street last night. The evening was most pleasantly spent in games of various nature
 Charles Daly of Railroad Hill street has left Waterbury for Atlanta, Georgia, where he has accepted posi- ton as salesman in large dry goods establishment.
 The flower bed in the yard of Plume and Atwood's concern has been fixed up as in years past. It is one of the prettiest flower beds in the city and 1t attracts considerable attention from passersby
 A surprise party was given i'll hon. of Frank Reid at his home on North Riverside street last night. Among those who contributed to the evenings festivities were Julius Zibeland the Misses Elizabeth Pryor and Margaret McCarthy, who were heard in vocal solos While piano selections were ren- dered by the Misses Ella Mccarthy and Rose De Liguori Dancing, was en- Joyed. Refreshments were served.
 --In regard to the communication in Wednesdays evenings issue of the Democrat, in which a correspondent praises the services of Alderman Ma nancy and Walker in behalf of proper protection at the Porter street crossing which resulted in a hagman being se- cured. The communication also urges the above aldermen to continue their good work by having sidewalks laid on Porter street from Simons street to Bank street. In regard to this one of the above aldermen remarks that news paper talk will do no good unless a pe- tition for such sidewalks is sent into the city boards The boards cannot act In the matter unless there is a peti- ton. Consequently if any persons de- sire sfdeWalks they should send in a petition to the proper city board. Then the aldermen will have an opportunity of expressing their opinions on the sub- ject.
 The old building of Thomas Kelly on Bank street, which was rendered use- less by the change of grade on Bank street several years ago, is in miser- able and wretched condition at once unhealthful and unsanitary. In the in- terior of the building ruin is present on every side. The place is used as a roost for tramps There is door in the rear which has been nailed up and bolted thousand times but as often have the lilies of the valley broken it in. Anything that was of any use in the building, such as lead pipe, has been carried off by these marauders. Plaster has been knocked down and holes cut in the floor. On the upper most floor is a bundle of hay. It is s here where the weary Willies make their bed Some night match will be accidentally dropped in this bed and then one of the biggest coniagra- tions that ever was in Brooklyn, will take place. The timber in the housesis so old and rotten that the entire build- < ing will be enveloped in flames in a short time. It is situated so closely to the large brick block at the corner of Bank and Riverside street that the lat ter will be in danger The old, dilapfdated building should be, either torn down or repaired.
