the funeral party was met BY distin-

funeral train pulled into the Jersey City
station from the south The station was
crowded with nondescript assortment
of humanity. all classes Of wealth and
refinement, from the stately matron and
the dignifed business man, down through
the young school miss to the ragged boys
and girls of the East Side. They had all
been drawn to the station hoping to get
a glimpse of the casket Of the great
actor.
SO great was the crowd thfa it was
found necessary to have the police clear
the station before the casket could be
removed from the train. In hearse
the casket was taken to New York over
the Twenty-third street ferry.

The Finance Board yesterday after

Public Service Corporation. Complaints
for some time have been pouring in on
the 6ty authorities concerning the poor
quality: of light furnished
The resolution authorizing the Mayor
to appoint an expert to investigate gas
and electric lighting was passed on re-
ceipt Of the following Communication
from the Mayor.
Honorable Board Of Finance Commits
sioners;
.Gentlemen.- hare. during the last
few weeks, received a great number Of
letters and personal applications from
citizens. requesting me to take some ac-
ton to compel the Public Service Cor
poration to improve the quality of the
gas supplied to Individual consumers N
this city, and to supply fhe same at a
price less than is now charged, and also
to lower the charge for electric lighting.
This is subject beset with many
dihiculties. There is a widespread be-
lief in this city that the. quality of the
gas supplied by the company is far below
the proper standard, and that it is con
stantly growing worse, and as result,
costs the consumer more to obtain the
same amount Of light as the quality be-
comes more and more inferior; and the
impression exists that the prices charged
for both gas and electric light are ex-
sessive and unreasonable.
II hage endeavored to make such in
vestigation Of this subject as have been
able to do personally. and | have reached
the conclusion that if any substantial re-
suits are to be secured along these lines,
It is necessary to ascertain the exact
facts of Ahe situation here, and to com
pare the same with conditions in cities
sf similar size in this country, 50 that in
the event Of conflict with the company
we will be prepared with proofs to sus-
lain the position we decide to assume.
an order to obtain these facts it will
be necessary to have the aid of experts
who are familiar with the subject and
Eho can make systematic and accurate
investigation of these conditions. After
iuch information is obtained, we can,
with the aid Of the Law Department, de-
ermine what is the nature and extent of
he evils 70 be complained Of and the
remedy which It is possible to apply.
II, therefore, respectfully recommend
mat your Board authorize me to retain
IN behalf Of the city experts to investi-
gate and report upon the lighting condi-
ions as the same prevail in this city at

The expert is to report to the Finance
Board.
