all right, but it's one Of the most ex-
p~ensive systems of construction, and in
time the ties rot, the rails sag n the
running of cars makes music like a
VIOLIN he concluded.
The officials of the Public Service
were reticent today on the attitude CT
the commissioners. Although Presi-
dent Thomas N. McCarter was at lis
Office his clerk said that he was busy
and referred a reporter to John L.
O'Toole, publicity agent. The latter
had previously said that he had no
inlxling of the demand and could not
discuss it.
The Public Service operates twenty
one street car lines in this city and
and nave fifty-five miles of track. This
would mean the adjustment of several
thousand miles of overhead wire and
the relaying of it underground, if the
board Is successful.
At a special meeting of the Board Of
Works yesterday every member fred
a volley of questions at Martin White,
who appeared in the absence of Presi-
dent Thomas N. McCarter, of the Pub
lie Service Corporation, and lodged
complaints against the pavement be-
tween the tracks ON all the trolley
lines. They referred to a recent III
spection described holes and ruts
in the pavement and demanded inn
mediate action. MI. White said hat a
gang would begin work IN South Tenth
street today and another on Orange
street
Board Serious in Matter.
I'VE are serious in this matter said
President O'Connell.
There's no reason why we should
not do it soon if you do not" was the
way Commissioner Kraemer put it,
"and if we do you will pay for t."
We'll, it is not Mr.. Whites fault,
commissioners, said the chairman.
1--WE are not talking to Mr.. White.
It's to the Public Service" replied Com
missioner Mungle.
I'm sorry it is not Senator McCar-
ter voiced Commissioner kraemer,
''for we could even be more severe"
During the discussion Mr.. White
spoke of the wood block pavement
alongside of the tracks in various
streets, and Commissioners O'Connell,
Mungle and Kraemer related how it
was buckling and getting out of condi-
ton.
why, that's strange, commission
said Commissioner Ryan. II
thought that wood block was the best
pavement there vas" Commissioner
Kraemer laughed.
Commissioner Mungle denounced the
in Hamburg place, Maya
zine street and other unpayed streets
used by the Public Service.
Mr.. White, when that franchise for
the Ferry street and Hamburg place
lines was granted in 1880, the company
agreed to comply with an ordinance
of 1876, which required the company to
keep all unpaved streets used for troll
leys in condition until such time as the
streets were paved" said Mr.. Mungle.
THAT has never been done to my
knowledge, but it will have to be done
now. In Hamburg place there is six
inches of mud. It is in a d%eplorable
condition.

MYSTERY IN 100000 LOSS
MONEY BILLED FROM CUBAN
BANK TO NEW YORK.
Royal Bank Of Canada Reports II Has
One Of Missing $4,000
Notes.

Havana, Oct, 8.---The mystery sur
rounding the disappearance of $780,
300 supposed to have been sent by
registered mail by the National Bank
Of Cuba to the National Park Bank
Of New York was deepened by dis
covery indicating that the money new
er reached the postoffice in Havana
It now appears very probable that the
r}oney was distracted from the bank
n Havana.
The Royal Bank of Canada, branch
VI which is located in Havana, noti-
fed the National Bank of Cuba that
it had possession of one of the miss
/ Ing $4,000 notes which formed part
Of a large payment made by the latter
to the former bank on October 5. The
note was not discovered until Mon
day, the package in which it was
contail% not having been opened un-
til then. The Royal Bank of Canada
also notified the agent of the COM
pany which had insured the lost remit
lance.
It has been learned that only one
registered package was sent out by
the National Bank of Cuba on Sept.
%, the date on which the missing
package was supposed to have been
mailed. This proved to contain only
printed matter. Whether this envel-
Dpe ever contained money appears to
be most important piece of evidence,
but the bank officials fear it was not
preserved after being opened in New
York .

BY secret service men and private de-
.tectives. 5s al
