City Spends Their Money.

The official inspection Of the budget ex-
hibit. instituted by the Board Of Esu-

terday afternoon at the exhibition rooms,

principal object was to explain to the
taxpayers how the city spent their money.
The official opening for the public will oc-
cur tomorrow afternoon at 2:30 o'clock.
and the exhibition will continue until Oc-
tober 2S
The budget exhibit is new in this city. at
least. and New York is the first munich
pality Of any considerable size TO invite
the active cooperation and criticism Of
its taxpayers and citizens in the running
Of the city government. A striking feat
use of the opening of the exhibit at this
time lies in the fact that it allows the
taxpayers TO get an inside knowledge of
the working of the municipal government
while the appropriations for the ensuing
year are still being considered by the
Board Of Estimate and Apportionment
The budget exhibit was made possible
by Mayor Gaynor, who, in his last official
act before he was shot early in August,
approved the $4,000 appropriation made
bv the Board Of Aldermen for the pur
pose.
The budget exhibit occupies the two
floors and basement Of the building at No.

APPLEY ESTATE SETTLED
Had Been in Litigation Since
Death of Widow. in 1882.

Justice Gavegan signed an order yester-
day for the distribution OF the estate OF
Jacob Appev. amounting 70 about Sl.80@'.
ever which there have been many years Of
litigation Nj. Appley died in this city, in
1874 leaving thirtv-two parcels Of prop
erty which brought in partition sale @46--
o91
The long delay in the settlement Of the
estate was due largely to a question in
volving the Legitimacy Of the grandchildren
Of Applev. who were his direct descend
ants. which was raised by the grand
nerhews and granduieces, members Of the
SErady family including Dr. George F
Shradv former Coroner. A compromise
has now been reached. under which the
AppIev heirs. although their Legitimacy was
esta bIished. accept \ one-third interest
while the Shrady claimants receive two
thirds.
Mrs Maria Appley. widow Of Jacob Ap-
pIev died in 1882, leaving the property IN
he-ited from her husband to her relatives.
including Jacob Alexander Appley. her son
A. that time the latter was living with
Nary Brown Appley. who said that she
was his wife. Appley married Mary Rookie
fellow while Mary Brown Appley was still
alive
The Shradys raised the question Of the
legitimacy Of the children of Appey ny
Mary RockefellOw Appley. alleging mat
this union was void. because he was al
ready married when il was contracted. IN
Ise5 Treadweu Cleveland. who was counsel
to the attorneys for The Appley heirs, had
a law passed in Albany legitimatizing chill
dren born out Of wedlock whose parents
were married subsequent TO their birth
To make doubly certain Of the legality OF
their marriage. Appley and his wife were
remarked by Justice Beekman Of the Su-
