Mr. H. G. Brook died this afternoon at about 13.60 o'clock. No words can" describe the deep feelings of regret and sorrow felt by everyone in this city.

He had "been so closely identified with our prosperity as a city, so enterprising and hopeful for the future, so quietly charitable and helpful to the needy, so upright, honest and brave in his pursuit of the right and condemnation of the wrong, that his loss is keenly felt by high and low.

Those directly Interested in the investigation into the Pratt Letchworth contracts before State Prison Labors- Commissioner Blair, met In the pleasant parlor of the Erie County Penitentiary this morning to proceed with the taking of testimony.

Commissioner Alfred Lyth was the first witness, and said his office was known as the Commissioner of the Erie County Penitentiary, and for five years he had acted in that capacity. There were no laws regulating their duties; they received their precedents from their predecessors; made renewals of contracts, audited accounts and signed the discharge of prisoners; in 1SS3 questions arose as to their power and duties; and after seeking legal advice, it confirmed their opinion that they were under the general direction of the Board of Supervisors; this is the first time there has been an investigation reflecting on the conduct of the institution; there is a bill now 1 before the Legislature to abolibh tho office cf commissioner; the articles of agreement between the firm of Pratt Letchworth and the commissioners on the part of the people were read, and a question arose whether the Commissioners had authority to sign such a contract; the contract was drawn by the attorneys of Pratt Letchworth. j. i The old and new contracts for different years were then compared; the last contract showed a higher average rate for labor than former ones; the conference between the commissioners and he firm lasted from morning, till midnight visits the prison onca a month regularly; inquirios were made as to delinquencies of payments, but' nothing new elicited an answer was requested to the question if Letchworth did not have a favorable contract I in that they were not required to pay fpr the convict! labor but once in three months, andi why the firm was not crowded to a settlement; the answer was that it was somewhat the fault of the commissioners, he being the only resident commissioner matttor was left largely with him, and sickness and a western trip were the main reasons for Ithe delay; regarding the" employment of workmen besides convicts, or experts, Mr. Lyth fknew of such' fact, but, it was hot done with Tiis permission but knowlt edge; when', the, I bill was pending in the legislature, which looked to the abolition of the office bf prison commissioner! Mr.

Lyth recommended in a personal letter to the supervisors the appointment of a should have charge of the removal of Pratt Letchworth aud the purchase of the buildings of the firm; he made an' errone- oss recommendation to t'i3 supervisors in saying that the county wero to take those buildings of the firm. The Central laborcpmmitteo then cross-ex-i amined Mr. Lyth and elicited the facts that no bids were advertised for in ihiring convict the i lon.had boon us'edj. but was not considered advisable. Lj man Hubbell, clerk for Pratt Letch-woi th ten years, then; testified about the number of citizens employed and it was found that from 40 to 50 per week the cash paid in advance antTthe delinquent date3 compared and the opinion formed that if interest on prepayment was put against delinquent payments the county would owe the firm.

Apropos to the question which arises regarding the fact that parties owing the penitentiary paid quarterly, it seems pertinent to say that commissioners' and other salaries are only paid quarterly. The only witness who will; be examined further is the convict known as the kicker." He is a Lillie in name; only, arid makes statements which cannot iibe and figures show that his charged of being detained over time are Commissioner George Blair by his c-DoL impartial rulings has succeeded in gaining the respect alike of labor union, the penitentiary authorities auili the public, He loaves tonight fowhis home-and will havehe matter under advisement. about two weeks, when, i he sees sufficient grounds, the case will be laid beforo the Attorney-General.

The place where the slid occurred is just east of East Creek, on the north side of the Mohawk, where there is a high ridgs known as Forest Hill ridge which extends eastward about one mile toward St. Johns; ville.

The ridge Is about 10 feet in height and at its base run the Central-Hudson tracks; Up over this ridge about 60 rods is a pond covering an area of about an acre and having no visible outlet. The soil about the pond is a coarse sand overlaying stratum of clay. Through tbe sand stratum the waters of the pond have worked their way to the river be During tbe past week the wafers from tho i pond and i the molting snow! have soaked into the soil, thoroughly saturating it and moistening the slippery stratum of clay beneath, so that a landslide was likely to occur on the slighteej' provocation. Monday night the brisk wind sweptthrought.be tall trees that border the! southern slope and the straining at their roots disturbed the soil and furnished the necessary, impetus for" the slide. The mass of about four rods in width by six in length and from six to ten feet in depth, began to move down the-steep embankment, carrying tress and and swept out upon tpe tracks below covering all four tracks for a distance of VXf 1 One visitor declaredjthat it looked as if ono of the farms upon the hill had moved! down, wood lot and all." When the tracks w.ere first laid a retaining waU Ave or six feet; high was built from the eastern end of the' ridgo and continued wherever the incline; was steep to a point just east 1 of where the-slide occurred, and there it ended.

The aflidavit of Thomas Loomi set forth in subj-stance allegations to the following eff'ict; I That jthe action Lis brought to! recover; iagainstthe defendants damages for breaches; of certjain contracts set ifortti, in the com-; plaints and that the plaintiffs aroTntitled to-recover; for such breaches ot contract the; sum of over aud abpve all counter claims known to the plaiutiHs. i The first 'cause "of action set forth in thei complaint i3 i based upon! tliie fact that thO; plaintiffs wero; employed by! the defendant company during the period from the first day of JulyjlSSo.to the first day of April, 1880, i as the agents for the cole jof the defendant's coal in Buffalo jmd vicinity, and "that a con tract was made between the parties by which the plaihtiiTs were' entitled tp receive jupon fumji coal and! lump nut coal a special cornL missionjof 24 cents for. each ton of such coal- sold by them over and above all other ordinary commissions.

"3f, at Macedon Centre, about 20 milee east of I paid him a visit last February, and found.bim Jn good health; able to Walk about the house, and eating his, meals regularly, and some of his faculties are as bright as ever. Cannot see much, and hfe hearing is very dull at some times in the samel day, at other times bottor, but he can be conversed with at any time of day, I made bini a visit two and a half-years ego, and found him hoeing in the garden then 102 years old. On my last visit, as; above-named, I could see quite a alHng-off in many ways in the lapse of time, but could see no reason why he may not live several years yet, as his health is quite good, and bis decline in faculties very gradual. I I i This man Thomas Hants was born In Maryland, September 27, 17S3, and is now, if living and if not I should have heard of it in his 105th year. He emigrated, or came into Ontario county, near; Canandaigua, jln 1803, and removed into Wayne on the form where he is and has ever since resided, in 1S17, and there married.

i He was well educated and his early lif before marriage was mosdy spent in teaching school, i As is generally tne case, hi memory is very clear of the events of his early life, and he remembers more about the state of the country and its progress iu settlement and improvements 70 or 80 years ago than of later, events. i I wiU only add that he voted at the last election, and, as he almost always did in his life, voted the republican ticket, and such before as led into that party organization, IL and l(raai. tost that Itelrop mmaesm and tightness the lungs.

He was the first enginser to sound the loco motive whistle in Chautauqua, having boon in charge of the first locomotive that entered Dunkirk In the fall of 1850tor the Erie railway. His age would be 5 next October The following biographical sketch is from the Standard County Atlas: Horatio G.

Brooks was bora in PortsmoutW N. October 182S. In lb3 his parents removed to Dover, N. H. He gave early evidence of a strong predeliction for the locomo tive.

At the age of sixteen, much to his delight, he was allowed to enter the works of Boston, as apprentice to the trade of machinist. His taKtes, however, were so pronounced Bfavor of railway and locomotive service that in lS4fi, with tbe consent of hie employers, he entered the shops of the Boston Maine railroad, then located at Andover, Mass. i Eager for information' upon' the 'subject of the business he had chosen he lost no opportunity of informing himself; and while fond of amusement, appreciating the delight of living as only a perfectly healthy organization can, was still a close student. Never satisfied to know simple results, lie-Constantly sought to secure information as to causes. For this reason his progress weus rapid.

At tho age of twenty he was sontout of the shop to learn tbferoad as fireman, and- was promoted to the position of engineer in the month of May, lKt'J. In 'he kit Boston in charge of engine No. iX), built bv Hincklev Dfury for thoS. Y. E.

HKK6tti at the residence of her father in NorthEdgecomb, Maine. He attended 'thoroughly to hi3 duty "as a' locomotive engineer until November, 1)5-G, when without solicitation upon his part, ho was called to the position of master mechanic of the Ohio Hl-sissippi railroad. In March, he was re-callod to Dunkirk to assume the position of master: mechauicvpf the Dunkirk shops.

In October, ue wa3 appointed superintendent of the western division of the newly-organized Erie" railway, btiil retaining the positiqn of master mechanic of the western and northwostorn divisions. In March, 1SG5, he resigned positions to accept that of superintendent (of motive power and machinery of vthe entire road, which position he resigned in Vim. In 1800, Jay Gould, then president of the Erie railway, ordered the Dunkirk shops to be permanently closed and tbe machinery removed to other To prevent this great misfortune from falling npc-n the home of his adoption, and ujiou many men and their families to whom by long association he had become, deeply attached, as well as to protetft his own Mr. Brooks conceived the idea of leasing the property from the-Erie railway for the purpose of establishing tha business of locomotive manufacturing. He made the proposition to tho company ard it was accepted.

On the luth of November, the Brooks Locomotive works were organized. Brooks leaves -a wife and two Mrs. Frederick H. Stevens of Buffalo and Mrr. 8olnno of Jxjs Edward Nich-oln, whose wife (another daughter) died last yean arrived at Dunkirk yesterday from Cincinnati.

Deatli of l)r. William Dr. William Ring, onof the oldest practicing phyticiaus iu Buljalo)vand thelirst graduate of the Buffalo died yes-, terday afteruoon at Uis- rehhVnce on Niagara street; aged C3 years. The readers were prepared for the'4sad news by the brief statement published yesterday. Ho was stricken down with bilious colic which developed into peritonitis.

I Dr. King was born at Da Rnyter, Madison county, Nov. 19, 1834. Ho entered the Buffalo Medical College at its organization, ahd was the first graduate of the in-stitution in 1S47. He soon afterwards began the practice of his profession in Buffalo, which he continued with success up to.

the time of his death. Eince 1SG4 he had charge of the Providence Insane Asylum as medical superintendent; he was a member of the American Madieal association, the New York State Medical association, the New York State Medical society, president of the Erie County Medical society, and of the Buffalo Medical and Surgical association. About he was elected supervisor for two terms; he was also physician at several public institutions at various periods. Dr. Ring was noted for his charitable disposition, and no physician in Buffalo did so much as be for the benent of the Bick poor.

Among this class bo was a veritable good Samaritan, ministering to their necessities, with as much care and seal as he would devote to the- wealthiest patient. It was no wonder that his services among the poor were in constant demand, and they were always cheerfully and freely rendered. Ho was remarkably successful in his treatment of the insane, and might have risen to great distinction as an alienist had hs devoted himself to that branch of the profession alone. i Dr. Ring leaves two children, Charles A.

and William both physicians, tho former resident physician at the Almshouse. Hi3 two brothers, Allen and George Ring, also survive him, and are i residents of Buffalo.
