WARING ISO.K, AFTER ALL. Mayor Strong Says the Streets Clean Before GHMATED ADOITIONAL FUNDS, Fitch Joins in Signing the Be- port After Freeing His Mind, ONLY HALF A MILLION NEEDED. Short Time Health Emergency Bonds Will- Supply the: Cash. Col. George Washington Waring, Com- missioner of Street Cleaning of the big- gest town in the biggest country on earth, had a stiletto finish on his cun- | ning little gray mustache to-day and) was about the happiest man in town. Mayor Strong, Corporation Counsel | Bcott, President Barker, of the Board of Tax Commissioners, and President Jeroloman, of the Board of Aldermen, vnited in telling him what a great street cleaner he is, and topped off their words of praise by tossing him a trifle of half | @ million dollars or #0 to keep up the good work. Col. Waring has been cleaning ftreets for six months nearly, and he has cleaned them, too, leaving not a single speck of dirt from the Hattery to the Bronx when he got through. ‘True, it has.cost more money to do so, and there have been no end of charges that the Commissioner has been extravagant. But the streets are clean and they're being kept clean. In the view of the Mayor and his Cabinet this fact justifies the threat- ened deficit in the Commissioner's ac- counts, ‘A committee of the Board of Extl- mate and Apportionment was appointed t0 see what could be done to make it up. ‘That Committee ‘reported to the full Board to-day that of the $2,306,00 ap- propriated at the beginning of the yeur, ($198,000 was expended for the special purpose of removing mow and ive, which, with.the expenditures above the average, wi) leave an apparent deficit of $001,427.72 tobe made up during the ‘fast six monthe of the y ‘The cost for cleaning the etreets dur- Qe the present month and the average expenditures is $238,000, while the Temainder ef the appropriation on hand ‘will permit of anexpenditure of $152,000, ‘The aggregate of the difference be- ‘tween the two suma represents the ap- parent deficit. Col, Waring figures out that he will need $516,000 or lena. ‘As to the means for making up the de- fictt, the Committee recommended to tho Board the issue of short time health emergency bonds, ap the may be needed from time to time. This is to be done by the Health Board certifying to the necessity for additional money to clean the streets. ; ‘When the report was presented to-day there was no opposition to its adoption. It was signed by all the members, In- cluding Col. Waring’s persistent critic, Comptroller Fitch, who read a letter protesting against the acts of the Street Cleaning Commiasioner that made it necessary to make up a deficit. He condemned the practice of departments in exceeding thelr appropriations, and comments this way: inthis. particular cae ie the But it jency of the api ular department and la to be free after spending ‘the money sot apart for his use to demand more, then the law should be changed and the Board of Estimate and Apportionment abolishs While I desire to record my protest has made thie appli ard necessary, I am still ready to ¥: to. pro- city in’ any legal way whieh can be de- Tised againet the calamities which might follow Tn this case it is roost important for the health and comfort of our-paopie thet please | {ng the streets should not break down for want ef money ond 1 Join willingly tm any leeal Srrancement to Wave 1t contimme erruugh the bal- | Ance of the year. | ‘The Comptroller's comment opened up @ discussion of the subject, and Com- missioner Waring, who sat at the! Mayor's right hand, heard some very Rice things said about himeelf. | All the members of the Board told him that in their belief the deficit in his accounts was justified. because he hes Feally cleaned the streets, and Mayor Strong actually beamed upon the Colo- Del as he said RIVERHEAD, L. 1, June 26 —Three “I believe that the Commissioner has young women of this place went t fave ever been cleaned and that he will Wildwood Lake yesterday afternoon to Keep them clean for less money than bathe While in the water some one a ae aes or what was paid about, Haw Mal Kwang Nota Soldier, — |” their clothing, and they were gue 45 the reporters.” gaid the Colonel] a: the testing of the Lennard i ei) to ile An the pocne Until Anis ihe fret bonds to male un the dee Sveirs in oe “The young Wonten are highly re Bertie of Scister, ond inen Onis in| Keass. ine Chinear Cv ihe otficlais are Looking for the such amounts as ure needed for monthly oe tee f» = = expenditures. titres “ — CIVIL-SERVICE SCHOOL : ae |HIS WIFE READ THE PAPERS. is i HIPPING | = 58 NEWS.

WASHINGTON, D, C., June 2%.—To- day's Treasury statement will show the goldreserve to be $107,447,855. While no in- formation hi been received at the ‘Treasury other than that yesterday's gold deposits would bring the reserve up to the amount given, it is assumed that this deposit covers the entire amount due under the contract. Whether yesterday's deposit of near! $7,000,000 was in foreign gold is regard- «das extremely doubtful, as no infcrma- tion has reached here of the arrival in this country of anything approximating that amount of gold. It ia thought therefore that this de- posit was made by the syndicate In domestic gold in order to save interest. This domestic gold, of course, will be replaced by importations within the next few days, when the formal trans- fer of the bonds will be made. ‘As to the question whether the obliga- ton of the syndicate to use its best efforts to protect the Treasury withdrawals of gold for export ceases on the deposit of the full amount of gold called for by the contract Assistant Secretary Hamlin dec:ined to express an opinion. from From’ other officials, however, it is learned, it was the wu tanding with the syndicate at the time the contract was made that the obligation was ta continue until Oct. 1.) The question, how- ever, has not been formally raised, nor ts It thought that it will be raised.
