NO POLITICS, THEY SAY- Horses and Wagons That ‘Don't Exist Declared to Be Recorded as in Use—Rights of Removal. Mayor Low to-day received David Mc- Kay, James J, Daly and James Clancy, representing the Citizens’ and Taxpay- era’ Association of the Borough of Queens, who presented a long list of gharges against Borough President Cas- sidy, of Queens. They informed the Mayor that they were prepared to verify their allegations with sworn affidavits, and denied that there was any political motive behind the charges. The Mayor informed the committee that the matter would receive his careful consideration, and that he would in- struct the Commissioner of Accounts to make an exhaustive examination and report at the earliest possible date re- garding the charges, which include the padding of payrolls. It {s alleged that there are dead men being carried on the payrolls, that horses and wagons that don't exist are rated as in use, and that several men draw salaries from the clty who hoid other positions. The Mayor was at first opposed to making public the charges, because he is a member of the Board of Estimate with President Cassidy, but finally he consented to give out a portion of the memorial. It is declared that poorf of the charges may be readily secured by consulting the city's books. A few cases are cited in support of the charges.

There was great excitement in the back room of Kerrigan's, Thirty-eighth street and Broadway, to-day over the news from Paria that a judge has de- clded that every actress's husband has the right to go behind the scenes to visit her during a performance.
