CRUISER ORDERED
TO HAYTIAN WATERS
Federal Government Decides to Send
War Vessel to Protect interests
of Americans During
Revolution
B: Associated Press.

B: Associated Press
WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.-Because of
the disturbed conditions in Hayti, and
as guarantee for the protection of
American interests, it has been decided
to send the cruiser Des Moines to that
island, with her headquarters in the
vicinity of the troubled section. The
Sunboat Eagle Captain MARVEL COM
manding, now at st. Marc, will look
after the protection of these interests
until the arrival of the cruiser, when
she will resume her survey work
around the coast.
The immediate reason for the in
crease of the naval force in Haytian
waters was the receipt of dispatch
today from Captain MARVEL, which in
addition to reporting the fact that st.
Marc had been retaken by the govern
ment forces. added that a number of
buildings had been burned and that the
property of an American had suffered.

USES LAST CASH
TO GET PERMIT
SHOOTING GALLERY LICENSE is
NOW HELD UP
Property Owners on North Broadway
and Court Street Oppose Further
Occupancy of one-story
Structure

Although he sounded the sentiment
of the police commissioners last Tues
day and obtained the signature of most
of the nearby property owners, Philip
Braun, late of Buffalo, was unable to
get permit yesterday to operate a
shooting gallery at 147 North Broad
way, which is the natural continuation
of Court street II 1t were cut through
Objections by representatives of the
Mccarthy company and the title COM
panies which are located nearby caused
a delay on the part of the board of
police commissioners and will prob
ably defeat the permit These men say
the gallery will damage property and
rental values.
Mayor Harper and Commissioner
Woodill expressed sorrow for Braun,
who stated that he pawned his jewelry
and spent his last dollar in fitting out
the prospective gallery after Landlord
Donnigan had given him what he re-
garded tacit assurances that the per-
nit would be granted.
The structure to be occupied, Acting
Chief Flammer reports, is a one-stor$
brick front, the rear wall formed by a
concrete retaining wall built into Court
street.
Attorney Clifton Axtell, for the prop
erty owners, said as long as such small
structures were rented there was no
likelihood of their being torn down, and
owners whose interests amounted to
over $780, 900 wanted to see North
Broadway built up with modern build
ings.
Those who signed the petition for the
title companies were not the highest
officers and the signatures were at
tached by mistake, he said.
Mayor Harper finally suggested that
the case be held over week so that
Braun could interview those whose rep
Presentations had caused him to invest
his savings.
Police Commissioners Charles Fuller
said he had advised both Donnigan and
Braun not to spend cent until they
first had their permit, as usually OPP
position confronted all shooting gallery
petitions.

The Commissioners of Accounts seem 10 have
unear1hed another administrative scandal in
the Bureau of Licenses. While we do not wish
To preiudge the officials accused of CarelesSneSs
and dishonesty in connection with the grant
ing of licenses, it is apparent that the business
Of the licensing bureau has been conducted in
thst happy -go-lucky manner which has made
the general administration Of the City's affairs
so inefficient and so costly. The plea Is gen
erally urged when such disclosures occur that
sutyordinates have abused the confidence Of the
head Of the bureau department. and that the
city administration is innocently led into sane
ticning transactions which have been made
possible bv faulty system of supervision and
accounting. But this is plea 70 which the
taxpayers are weary Of listening.
What the public wants 10 know is why the
present haphazard system of administration is
not superseded by system which would com
pei strict accountability and apply approved
business methods in all departments. Why
cannot the citys affairs be conducted with pre-
cision and intelligence? 1t is laughable that
commissions should have to be appointed to
discover what the city's debt is, and should
have 10 work months before discovering how
near we are TO the constitutional debt limit
II is discredItable that the budget should be
increased each year by millions of dollars and
yet no means should be available for checking
useless and foolish expenditure. The fact
seems to be that the municipalities affairs are
In a condition OF chaos and that no sufficient
effort is being made 10 reduce them TO order.
Salaries are not co-ordinated. responsibility is
dispersed, and the city's work is done on the
theory that il ought 10 yield an extravagantly
liberal profit TO contractors and insure an easy

and comforts of the Officeholding class and
THAR friends are consulted first: the public

THE TREASURY OUTLOOK.

The report on the Treasury's operations for
September shows a material betterment in trade
conditions and points TO a closer approximation
between government receipts and disbursements.
The Treasures income is increasing and is now
almost up TO the level of year ago-befOre the
panic of 1907 began. Total receipts for Sep
TENDER. 1908 were only $311S000 less than
those for September. 1901 Compared with Au-
gust. the Treasury's income has expanded by
S3.0OOOO0. the chief gain being in duties on
imports The deficit for September was only
S45S39T1.
The new fiscal year began badly. In July
and August the adverse balance was about 500
100000. and some reckless critics began 10
prophcsy that.thc deficit for the year would run
10 $175O0OOO0 or over. Septemher's statement
rcfutcs that prophecy. for the first quarters loss
is only S33COOOO0 and the ratio Of loss in the
first quarter is seldom maintained throughout
the year. From October on each month Will
show material gain in receipts over the cor
responding monte Of last year. and though eX-
penditures will evidently he somewhat larger,
the excessive deficits of the panic period Will
not, be repeated. There Will probably he an
unfavorabe balance AT the end of the year,
but IN our Judgment 1t will be much smaller
than the deficit of S59.656.oO0 incurred in the
fiscal year 1q01-'OS
