Hoboken Dry and
Deserted Over Sunday
Onlv One Drunk Will Face
the Police Court This
Morning

To the CONSERVATION Of most Of its
inhabitants, Hoboken found itself com
pletcly dry yesterday. The most dili-
gent and thirsty citizen encountered
only locked doors and unscrcencd win
dows. However, there was Jersey City
So presently Hobokcn found ITSELF not
only dry. bot deserted.
Samuel Wilson. law enforcement ON
Ger Of the Anti Saloon League OF Ne"
Jersey. whose home is in Jersey Clty
went TO Hobokon. Mr.. Wilson has VS.
tied that city on Sundays ever since
tho Federal order closing its saloon
was suspended and has reported M

Yesterday he made his report at 20
lice Headquarters. ,

Hospitals Face Big Deficit

Due largely TO war conditions, the
United Hospital Fund Of New York l
IN danger of showing a serious deficit
this year some estimates place the
deficit at Sl.OOO,O 600, and because of the
heavy demands on the contributing
public there is small likelihood OF its
being met.
The increased cost OF living has cut
down the sums usually contributed TO
the hospital fund, officers of the fund
say. Furthermore, there has been a
material increase in the number OF pa
tients the various hospitals have been
called upon TO care for.
During 1916 the expenses Of the
fcrty-siX hospitals belonging 10 the
United Hospital Fund totalled S6,so2.-
$50. and their total income was S6.37l,-
S32. leaving deficit of more than
S4gO. 600. The unprecedented rise m
the costs Of labor and supplies makes
10 certain that the deficit this year will
be materially greater
Among the hospitals which report
deficits for the year ended September
80 are the New York Hospital, S96,sl2;
German Hospital, S52.724; Volunteer
Hospital. S4O,S77; the Nursery and
Childs. $GO.539; Polytechnic. S2l .430, and
the Lyinc-ln Hospital, Sl9,tl6.

Whole System Wrong

after having disclosed plumbers
and after having established
the reason Of high prices paid by the
Russian government. the commission
would be able 10 outline the necessary
reforms. II is not only question OF
individuals. but OF. the system and oil
the organization OF the Russian com
missions here where supreme mel
Cciency seems to prevail.
The Russian public opinion mere l'
afraid that notwithstanding the revo-
luton in Russia the Russian govern
mcnt arrangements here Will not DC
changed. We are not wiling 10 20
into details and name persons, because
we are interested rather in the way oil
nrinciples. but we consider ourselves
entitled 10 expect results from our con-
slant messages Just for that reason.
eve also would like to see the gov
eminent publish a list OF the secret
agents Of the old regime government
here. We think that such measure
should prove as necessary mere as u
was in Russia"
Another letter told of the dispatch
ing of messenger to Russia who car.
RED with him copies of athdavits OF
Russian inspectors here in arms FAC
tories. These affidavits, as set form
in The Tribune yesterday, charged that
members of Russian acceptance com
missions here approved of arms that
had been discarded as of inferior qua
it,. bv these inspectors.

Little RasputIns Here"

Said Mr. Nolgar:
Information in CIR possession shows
that against every one Of the dismissed
Russians tho.e are still ten here in the
employ of the Provisional Government
and still continuing their obnoxious
activities
"Our country mas had revolution.
The corrupt, inefficient. reactionary
officials have been turned out of Office
By the people. But as far as the Rus
sian colony in this country goes there
has been no revolution whatsoever.
The little Cars are still active on
American soil. The little Rasputins
find a haven in this country under the
protection Of the flag of free Russia.
ii ie high time that the Russian Am
bassa6or take action real action. Ii
Is high time that he take sweeping
measures to clean cut the bureaucratic
nests finding shelter here
the overwhelming majority OF the
Russian officials here nave been APP
pointed IT, the good old days Of the
Car. They are entirely cut Of sympa-
thy with the new Russia Many of
hem openly profess their monarchism.
Some Of theme were sent here thanks
10 the pull OF Rasputin.'
