$34, 300 = Specific
Pledges Violated.

In the Journal" of last evening,
Comptroller Hough made strenuous
attempt to diminish the effect and force
of the scathing rebuke which Finance
Commissioner Anthony Brock admins
tered to Mayor Fagan's partisan Board
of Finance for the infamous budget
which they sprang upon the city.
A reporter for "The Jersey City News"
called upon Mr. Brock at his Office in
New York this morning and asked him
If he had seen Mr.. Hough's alleged
reply to his staetment at Wednesday
afternoons meeting of the Board.
"Oh, yes, have seen Mr.. Hough's
reply" said Mr.. Brock, 'and. there might
be just one point on which he is right
| tried to get information upon that
point but was blocked at every move"
I'm what respects is Mr. Hough wrong
in his reply y asked the reporter.
Il am much opposed to making any
statement in the newspapers on this
subject, and would prefer to wait un-
til the next meeting of the Board Mr..
Brock said.
1t was pointed out to him that Mr..
Hough's statements seemed to call for
an Immediate reply or the public might
think they could not be answered. FL
nally, though reluctantly, Mr.. Hough
consented to speak.
THE ASSESSMENT BLUNDER.
He started with the matter in Mr..
Houghs reply labeled charge No. 2
which is as follows:-
Charge NoS1.-The budget makes
no provision for the payment of S3o-
900 into the sinking fund created to
nay off 81. 400 O00 bonds issued un-
DER the act of 1890.
Comptroller Hough's reply-"The
budget makes no provision for the
payment Of the $4,000 because that
sum will be Nealized from money re-
ceived from the assessment account,
which will be fed as usual by the
payment of assessments due and col
lectabe In omitting this S33,O00
from the budget the Board Of FL
nance has done exactly what the
Democratic Board of Finance did

Mrs. E. L. Bogart- Sur
prise All Around.

again been surprised. This time by the
marriage of Miss Juliet Dodds. daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. James Dodds, of No.
232 Garfield avenue, to Mr.. Eugene l..

ston Bogart. of No. 225 Garfield avenue.

Rev. David Luske. pastor of the Sixth
Presbyterian Church of Newark. Mr. and
Mrs. Flemmer, of No. 1876 Linden ave-
nue. acted as best man and matron of
honor.
The two were married on July 6, the
birthday of the bride, and kept the we'd
ding a secret until last Monday, when
both consented to let their parents know
all about the affair. The news was a
surprise to both the groom's and brides
parents.
AIR. Eugene Bogart met Miss Juliette
Dodds about three years ago and has
been quite attentive ever since. Neither
of their parents thought seriously of the
amtter, but the couple came to an agree
ment without consulting their elders, as
they feared they would never get the
corsent of the brides parents.
On Sunday, July 6, together with Mr..
ana Mrs. tlemmer. the two left the home
of Mr.. Dodds. giving their parents the
impression that thev We're "ai''@ n- :
trolley ride to Fort George. Instead, the
two went TO Newark. wnere fIev were
married.
Upon returning they gave a full ac-
count of trip to Fort George and the
jolly time they had. On the same even
ing the newly wed couple We're given a
reception at the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
Flemmer, at No. 1876 Linden avenue.
Last Monday, when the news of the
Wedding finally leaked out, both bride
and groom were forgiven by their par
ents.

NOT PROVIDED FOR.


Gas for Mr.. Hough's assertion that the
long list of temporary loan bonds set
forth in my report has been provided
for in the budget. ! say it is an outrage
on arithmetic. These bonds. as shown
in my report, figure up a total of about
$5S,0OO. Will Mr.. Hough or anyone else
show any figures in the tax budget which
include this amount. ! find only one
item in it for the payment of debt. 1t
is the item for bonds due 19O2-1903, and
the amount of it is $4,000. How is
Mr.. Hough or anyone else going to pay
$5S,OO0 out of $4,000?
/ ''As matter of law there was only
one thing to do with the temporary loan
bonds, and that was to place them in
the tax levy. The resolution providing
for their issue in every case pledged the
city to this course Indeed in some cases
they went further and actually placed
the amounts in the tax levy.

REDUCTION OF CITY EXPENSES.
Great Saving Already Effected By the
Council,

If the city council can extend for 9
year or two longer the work of re,
trenchment so effectively begun, not
only will our little floating debt oil
81, 900 be entirely wiped ont but there
will be money in the treasury as we'll;
an end devoutIy to be desired.
A floating debt of $1,000 ia very
trifing, but it Is against us.
This floating" debt was incurred,
very largely, in securing to Americas
the splendid shops of the Seaboard
Railway several years ago, the finest
investment the city ever made, as all
will agree. The prevalence of a con
tagions disease here three years ago
served to increase this debt.
Therefore, it was extraordinary" ex-
penses that created the floating debt.
Ii Americus could collect today all
the outstanding taxes due it would
pay every cent she owes. And this is
going to be done.
This indebtedness, year or two
ago, amounted to about SCI, 900, but
two-thirds of it has been paid off, and
Council is anxious to cancsl the bal
auce as soon as possible,
1t is small amount, comparatively
speaking. Many business men in
Georgia, in the general conduct of
their affairs, owe $1,000, while other
cities the size of Americus owe great
deal more in the way of a "foa'ing
debt" 1t will be easy to pay it.
And to this end Council is cutting
down city expenses galore
The retrenchment knife has been
welded to some extent already, with
the result that saving of "a, 900 this
year is assured.
In the police department SO. 100 has
been cut off, and without affecting Sc
riously the efficiency of the service.
Our electric lights cost 5000 less this
year than in years past, and still we
''walk in the light" In the water.
works and fire departments saving
of 81, 900 is effected.
There was cutting of several sal.
aries of officlals and employees.
The "watchdogs of the treasury
still figure upon further curtailment oil
expenditures, and if their plans are
put in force Amerlcus, in two years,
will not owe dollar beyond her small
bonded indebtedness; there will be
cash in the till and taxes lowered.
Americas, financially, is in excellent
condition. Few cities in Georgia can
make such showing from the dollar
standpoint.
