"Petty Cash." Indeed.

From S3o,ooo to $40, 1000 was allowed
annually by the board of directors TO
II. H. Vreeland, formerly president of
the Metropolitan Street Railway Company
OF New York City, which he was allowed
to spend in any way he saw fit for the
interests of the company and for which
he was required to make no accounting.
This was brought out in the testimony
before the recent special grand jury by
Charles S. Ludlam, an expert accountant
Mr.. Ludlam had been engaged by Mr..
Nreeland to inaugurate system of book
keeping for the Metropolitan company,
its business having outgrown the system
then in use. 1t was in going over the
company's books that Mr.. Ludlam came
upon the thousands given Mr.. Vreeland
and for which there was no other &C
counting then under the Petty cash"
column of the ledger,
Mr.. Ludlam testified that this account
excited no comment on his part, nor did
he feel ii his duty to investigate it, as the
practice was almost universal in large
corporations.
1t was common, he stated, for pres.
idents of corporations to spend hundreds
and thousands of dollars in the interests
OF their companies for which they were
asked for no accounting. He cited one
instance where the president of a cor.
poration had been voted $4,000 a month
by the board of directors to spend &C
cording to his ovid judgment.
What was this money charged to?''
asked Mr.. Jerome.
ITO the petty cash account" said the
witnenss.

Potato Crop.

Potato growing on land valued at some
thing like 81 ,ooo, 900 an acre is to be tried
in New York this season if the advice of
experts from the department of agri-
culture il Washington is followed by the
local park authorities. The growing OF
either potatoes or corn is declared nee
essary to get the soil in Central park,
this city's great pleasure ground, into
the right condition SO that grass will
grow luxuriantly. The park soil, it is
stated, needs regeneration.
