old saying that the way to mans

These menus are undoubtedly at

in this city do not offer their mem
bers a greater variety. BBut-and the

as attempting to dissuade young men
from enlisting in the navy-it is on

lists under the impression that he is
going to be fed fat throughout his

HOLDS MONOPOLY OF PIERS.
Investigators Of the Old Dock Board
on the Trail Of Another Holder OF
Valuable Dumping Privileges Un-

IN his investigation Of the Tammany
Dock Board District-Attorney Jerome
received further evidence Of the remark
able profits OF Brown & Fleming. In
which firm Richard Croker 10 said TO
be q silent partner This 10 the con-
Germ which, by the admission In an
affidavit Of one Of It's members. started
without capital and cleared in three
years 81. 100000.
Mr.. Jerome found that what Is called
the "Tammany Dirt Trust" has a prac-
tical monopoly Of the pier dumps con-
venient to the subway. He has affidavits
from William Barclay Parsons. John B.
Mcdonald and others connected with
the subway showing that out OF the Elm
street section alone Brown & Fleming
made s125.OOo. This was paid by the
Degon-McLean Company for the prtv-
iege of dumping earth at the Canal
street pier.
Contractors Protested.
The Dlstrict-Attorney will show that
the subway contractors protested ana
applied to the old Dock Board for a
dump In another section OF the city.
The board refused. The case was taken
to the courts. Brown & Fleming won.
and were able to hold up the subway
contractors for any amount they cared
to. They boosted prices to IS cents a
cubic yard for cellar earth. After getting
this amount for the dumping privilege
Brown Sc Fleming were able to sell
the earth for hlling-in for II cents q
yard.
In an afidavit in F1eming's suit for
q dissolution Of the partnership. Brown
says about Fleming:
THAT the plaintiff was originally an
employee of the defendant. and at the
time that the deponent took him into
business with him. now about twenty
years ago, the said plaintiff was COM
mon laboror with absolutely no edu-
cation.
"That his development since that time
has not been very great. and that
though he Il at present a man Of large
means, owning q one-half interest in
said business. his habits Of life have
always been primitive, and his expenses
necessarily very small. This has re-
suited In the plaintiffs failure to draw
from said business as much Of his share
Of the profits as the deponent has done.
