Attention having been called to the mismanage> ment of the stree> cleaning business by Messra Disbecker & Co., of No. 209 Mulberry street, the public, and especially the taxpayers, will be in- terested in learning what revenue 1s derived from the sale of ashes, manure and swoepings under the present republican Commissioners of Police. Itis notorious that tne old contractor (Brown) realized a handsome sum yearly from the sale oj ‘this stuff for filllag in purposes and as fertilizers; but che taxpayers have yet to learn that Commis siovers Disbecker and Marsell have made it ar articie of profitabie sale, A gentleman well ao quainted with the operations of Dishecker" “Brown Brigade” discloses that mo mas can buy @ pound of this matertal on the East River unless he is @ friend of Disvecker and the Ring; that one of the means dishoneat men can resort to te to mystify the Mgures in cases of payments made forlavor, Hundreds are patd vwenty cents per hour to clean streets, and after working a few days by the hour they ars dscnarged and told to present their ciatms on pay day.

He called the reporters at tention to the Jaw which allows the Board to expend ail moneys so received, im addition to the sums seb apirt. by the Board o! Apportionment for street cleaning.
