FORCED INTO FLATS.
People Of Moderate Means Must Live
in Small Space or Move to the
Suburbs

Rich and poor alike abide in flats
in New York city. Rather than move
to the outskirts the people turn to ho-
tel and apartment life. The only citi-
zen able to build house for himself
on Manhattan Island is the million
aire The decline in the building of
individual dwellings has been start
ling. This is due to the constantly in
creasing value of real estate. The in
vestor must go up in the air to get
his money back. It is estimated that
there are at present 1,625,46s fiat
jewellers in Manhattan. Thirty-six
skyscrapers added to New York's rich
est borough in one year presents q
new illustration Of the manner in
which the residential population of
New York is being driven from private
roofs to semi-public life, not only by
giving up its home for sites for the
new hotels, but by finding shelter in
them afterward.

Bowman act. It would take upwards
of 100000 to pay all of the claim
set forth in these two bills, for the
Pennsylyanians and the southerners,
and all of the just claims ought to be
paid. They have been favorably re-
ported from the court of claims. But
it seems most likely that they viii
never be paid. If the government were
an ordinary debtor, honest indebted
ness could be collected in the courts
But no one claimant is big enough to
prosecute the government.
AS an example of favorable report
on an individual bill of this character
the committee clerk handed the writer
a report on bill No. 2944, which says:
''The committee on war claims to
whom was referred this bill for the
relief of Frances King beg leave to
submit the following report and rec
ommend that the said bill do pass
The report then goes ON to show that
the committee on war claims, OF q
former congress, not being fully and
clearly advised Of the facts In said

making provision for the payment Of
claims under what is known as the
Bowman act, of 1883. This bill is an
omnibus bill, like the Spanish war
claims bill. The proposed benefciaries
of this bill are all residents of the
southern states, and their claims
against the government are for dam
ages alleged to have been committed
by federal soldiers during the civil
war. Some of these claims were
brought to the attention of the con-
gress Immediately after the close of
that war, but a majority of them were
fled within the past IS years.
Opposed to this Bowman act claims
bill is the bill making provision for
reimbursement to the people of Cham
bersburg, Gettysburg and contiguous
places, for damages sustained when
Lee with his army Of confederates in
vaded Pennsylvania in June and July,
1868. The southern congressman for
years have opposed this bill for the
benefit of the Pennsylvanians, claim
ing that their southern claimants are
as much entitled to consideration as
the northern claimants. It thus hap
pens that the money undoubtedly due
to many of the claimants of the south,
and to all of the Pennsylvania claim
ants, remains unappropriated, year
after year, because of their antag-
onisms. As matter of fact, however,
the southern men have no right to
make their fight against the Pennsyl-
vania claimants, because all of the
Pennsylvania congressman are ready
to allow the southern claims to be
paid; but there are numerous other
congressman from northern states
who oppose the payments of the claims
of the southern people. Thus, while
the Pennsylyanians are willing to be
fair, the southern men are unfairly
attacking them, in order to force con-
of the claims under the
