Sound Business Policy.

1T appears to be in accordance with
sound business policy now to arrange
the finances and the public works of
the District in such a manner as will
permit of an annual reduction of the
debt and at the same time insure the
carrying forward of the permanent i'm
provements that, for lack of better
word, may be termed extra ordinary,
since it is apparent that these things
can be done without sacrifice Of eff
cheney in the ordinary current work.
THE bill as reported does not confer
additional power on the Commissioners,
but rather enJoins them
First. To limit their estimates to the
combined revenues. whereas until last
year they have been in the habit of sub
hitting estimates exceeding by millions
Of dollars the anticipated revenues.
Second To include in their estimates
provision for payment Of the deft, whereas
preceding last year it has been the habit
of the Commissioners, in connection VITA
their estimates. to seek to borrow large
sums annually in the way of advances
from the United States Treasury.
Third. To put in their estimates for
the action of Congress the things to ex-
ecute which they have been asking large
loans from the federal Treasury.
"All Of the so-called extraordinary
improvements which are authorized in
this bill. except charitable institutions
and hospitals, have either been SUBJ
stantially authorized in existing legis-
lation or have been fully reported upon
in response to past action OF Con-
gress."

Unable to Escape, All Occupants Of
a Coach Are Killed Outright
or Fatally Hurt.

HAVERSTRAW, y. Y, June 1O.-Three
mourners, their pastor and their driver
sat in a funeral coach here yesterday
afternoon and watched certain death
come rushing on them at fifty miles an
hour. With screech of grinding brakes,
heavy West Shore freight engine hur-
rying south to pick up a train at Wee
hawken crushed into the coach, scatter
ing it's occupants along the right of way.
and came slowly to halt 40 yards be-
yond the crossing.
All the occupants were either killed

Coach Caught Between Gates.
The Waterman was eating bite of
luncheon in his little cabin when the tin
kle of an electric bell warned him of an
approaching train. Mechanically he pull
ed the lever that set the heavy, balanced
gates in motion. Just what happened
VIII PROBABLY never De known, out some
eyewitnesses say that the arms of the
crossing gates, late in descending, block
ed the coach after it had crossed the first
Of two tracks and held 1t prisoner on the
rails, while the terrified occupants sat
paralyzed gazing at the onrushing loco
motive. The driver dashed his horses
in futile attempt to force the vehicle
from the track until with sharp crack
the picture dissipated and it seemed as If
the coach literally blew up. Fragments
Of splintered wood and mutilated shreds
of humanity were flung far and wide.
The engine stopped.
Picking Up the Dead.
A search for the dead followed. The
bodies Of Mr.. and Mrs. Seifred were
found side by side fifty yards down the
track The wife was just returning from
the burial of her father. by whose death
she had come into fortune. Young
Beebe, the driver, was the son of a

American Institutions

constitution of the United States recog-
nizes no titles of nobility and asked
the applicant for citizenship to lay his
title aside so long as he may remain
in the United States. To this the
prince assented without the slightest
hesitation, though he informed the
court that the Russian government
would not admit his right to abandon
his title any more than it would per-
NIT him to change his name.
Asked lis reasons for becoming a
citizen of the United States, Mr. Trou-
Letzkoy replied mat he had taken the
step because of his admiration for this
country and its institutions. He hlenied
that he had been actuated by a de-
sire to return to Russia.

prietors of the California Planning Mill

years experience on the stage, two of
which were spent with Benson's well
