These pay rolls are certitied to by the Commissioners transcript sent to the City Clerk to enable him to make out the warrants.

It has not been the practice until within the last three months to foot this transcript or to certify to it ILS being a correct copy. and it was upon similar transcripts that Mr. Van (Brooklin was enabled to perpetrate his frauds on the city, the same thing might easily have occurred in this department had the clerk been dishonestly disposed. the tissue copies of the pay roll on file never being compared with the warrants on issue. The report goes on that in some instances warrants drawn eXceeded the amount called for by the pay roll, but says Mr.

Hamilton: I found. they had been incorrectly footed. These incorrect footings had been certified, which shows that the Commissioners had not taken the trouble to verify the statement "This applies to the former as well as the present board." The report says that since the Fire Department exposure this neglect has been rectified. DOG TAX. Records of dog licenses issued by the Superintendent were kept on loose sheets.

C. C. Gale of Boston, F. C. Hamilton of Evausville, and Mack Wilson of Cleveland.

the committee ou a home site for the Commercial Travelers' Association of America, arrived in Buffalo last night and today will inspect the site offered for the location of the home here. It is proposed by the commercial travelers of the United States, now numbering 480.000. to form an association to which all commercial travelers of good character and moral standing will be admitted for the small sum of $2 membership fee and 81 annual dues. This would entitle them to the benefits of a suitable home in case they were overtaken by old age or disabled at a time when they could not provide for themselves. The work will stop not bere.

Provision is to be made also for. the dependent wives and the infant children of commercial travelers. The Arst step toward the desired end was to incorporate under the laws of the State the Commercial Travelers' Association of America. This was accomplished by a special act ofpthe Lexislature and. was approved by the Governor Feb.

25, 1892. Incorporation under the laws entitled the home to exemption from taxes and assessments the same as other benevolent organizations located in the State. Owing to the advantages to be derived from such an institution there has been considerable rivalry manifested in the matter of securing home. Many good sites have been offered, and moneved inducements besides. Buffalo has no organization which gives its attention exclusively to securing enterprises for the city and AC-: tion somewhat tardily, but owing to the enterprise of the North Main Street Land a site comprising 60 acres valued at $60,000 has been offered by that company, and subsequently.

at joint meeting of the real estate men and the local branch of the Commercial Travelers' Association a bonus of $25,000 Was pledged. Whether this compares favorably with offers made by other places is not known, but it is certain that it the matter had been presented to our citizens at an earlier date an offer would have been made that would have ensured the capture ot this splendid concern. The site committee of the association, accompanied by representatives of the real estate interests and the local branch of the association, will be driven this afternoon to the proposed site and points of interest about the city and will afterwards return to Syracuse where a report will be prepared and submitted to the annual meeting of the association, which will be held in Syracuse Oct. 10. The question of the location of the home will be finally decided at that meting.

A strong delegation of Buffalo commercial and real estate men will go to Syracuse and make a final effort to secure the home for Buffalo. In Arcadian Rutherford. NEW YORK, Oct. W. Griffin of Rutherford.

IT IS HARD TO SELL BONDS.

Comptroller Gavin -Has Returned from New. York with Buffalo Bonds Unsold. The hard times have affected other lines of trade besides the live stock and money markets, and they have even gone so far as to make the sale of good bonds undesirable. Comptroller Gavin is experiencing some difliculty in unloading a large and valuable consignment of Buffalo City bonds and says he found the New York market glutted with Western municipal securities, calling for live and seven per cent. interest.

while Buffalo bonds only pay but as prudent financiers always prefer sound securities to big interest on flimsy stuff' he bas no fear of being unable to sell the bonds at their face value and the usual premium as soon as money matters get a little easier. Mr. Gavin declined to hawk abont "giltedged" securities and kept bis bonds to himself. He thinks he can unload within about 60 days. TO CURE HER JAG.

Dose Given to Kittie Lang Which Seemed Like Arsenic, but Friends Say it Was Asafetida. Kittie Lang, a domestic in George Spencer's boarding house, South Division street. went with a young man she called McCue to R. J. Calvert's saloon at Washington and Mohawk streets last evening.

She drank beer until she was dazed and then her Jim" left' her. She remained in the ladies' apartment of the saloon for an hour when a woman friend and a man with a silk hat entered. She was asked to. have something with them. She consented and took several drinks of port wine.

It did not mix well with the beer and she was soon prostrated. She was carried upstairs and there the' man, with the tall hat administered some drug which he said would bring her around all right. She became unconscious, however, soon after taking it and the Fitch ambulance was called. She had all the symptoms of arsenical poisoning and the stomach pump was used with excellent results at the hospital. The people at the saloon said she was giveu to cure a jag.

Panorama of Paris. Paris is the city of the present, as Rome is of the past. Others may imitate it, but no metropolis of modern times can really be compared to the French capital for its elegance of decoration. the refined gaiety. of its manners and the superb arrangement of streets and boulevards, together with the magnificence of its: architectural triumphs.

If Switzerland is "the playground of Europe," Paris is its favorite place of Amusement. Hither come yearly hundreds of thousands of pleasureseekers from every quarter of our globe. There is everything in Paris to please, instruct and charm. Almost every window is an exhibition of art. Each prominent street is frequently the 'center of some carnival.

The river Seine. which divides Paris into two very nearly equal sections, shoots arrow-like beneath 28 bridges, many of which are eloquent of history. This French metropolis has a population of nearly two and a half millions, but exceedingly compact on account of the French custom of living in apartments rather than in separate houses. It is a beautifully clean city. The care bestowed upon its thoroughfares is something which excites the admiration of all tourists, and is in painful contrast to the way in which the streets of many, of our great American cities are neglected.

Perhaps this is one out of many reasons why "good Americans, when they die, go to Paris." The above is John L. Stoddard's description of the famous Panorama of Paris. The photographic view which accompanies it is 11x13 inches in size and would alone cost you $1.50, yet the first series of our art Portfolio contains 16 large. photographic views, and can be secured by our readers for only four 2-cent, stamps.

M. HAS A CIRCULATION IN 460 YORK TOWNS AND IN WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA. NEW FIFTH EDITION NO MONEY UP Corbett and Mitchell May Not Meet at Coney Island After All. THE CLUB HASN'T POSTED. Afraid Gov.

Flower Will Not Let the Match Come Off There- -Mow the Law May be Dodged. NEW YORK, Oct. Sun says it has leaked out that the Coney Island Athletic Club have not lived agreement with Corbett and Mitchell. It was stipulated the club should post $10.000 as a guarantee that the contest not be stopped. This money is not up and rumor has it that the club will not post it at all.

The agitation against the fight and the attitude of Gov. Flower have caused the Coney Island people to become anxious, and it is said they will not. put $10,000 where Mitchell and Corbett can get hold of it in case the battle is stopped. In other words, their agreement to forfeit this atnount of money is generally regarded in the nature of a bluff. Mitchell is growing quite anxious.

He wants to see the money deposited in a bank. but AS he has already signed the club's articles he feels that Judge Newton holds the big end the stick. Corbett came to this city from Asbury Park on Saturday, and is said to have inquired particularly about the $10.000 forfeit and the club's ability to pull off the match. When the question of law is taken up the Coney Island Club will offer a novel argument. They will say that the fight between Corbett and Mitchell comes within the law.

as it is a limited bout of 20 rounds, They claim also that the men can still fight to a finish and not violate the law by this method of procedure. If at the end of :20 rounds neither man is knocked out, the referee will call the contest a draw. Then in a few minutes a new contest of 20 rounds, limited, will begin. If no decision has been arrived at the referee will again call the contest a draw and a third contest of.20 rounds will begin. This will be continued until one or the other is knocked out.

It is in this way that Newton and Co. expect to avoid a violation of the law. SHEEHAN DOESN'T APPROVE. He Cannot Really Uphold Mr. Oleveland's Appointments and in Considering How Hard His Gang Has Been Hit.

Lieut. -Gov. Bill Sheehan was sad last night and is reported like Rachel to refused to be comforted because Gen. Doyle and genial John J. Kennedy had been appointed respectively Collector of the P'ort of Buffalo and Appraiser of the Goods and Chattels going through the Custom House.

Hesides Bill's people have been getting the knife in their gullets all down the State and there was wormwood in his cup of gall. So this. diplomatic chieftain is quoted as having declined to approve of the President's appointments, an attitude which leads to the inference that, with the aid of his pals in the United States Senate, he may. try to defeat the confirmation of the appointments or at least to hang them up until after election. when their effect will not have a chance to be so disastrous as it might at present in causing a scurry of the adherents of the Sheehan-Croker wing to the Cleveland camp where national pie is cut and dispensed.

Of course, Ald. Kennedy will accept the Appraisership; there never was the slightest doubt that Mr. Doyle couldn't accept the other office quick enough to suit self, and so another blow is struck straight between the eyes of the Sheehan Democracy. Both Messrs. Doyle and Kennedy will have patronage to distribute, the former the lion's share, but the latter will -be able to wield considerable power to influence votes against the machine and in favor of clean politics.

Sheehan caucuses are to be beld today at these hours: In Buffalo 5 to 9 P. in the towns from 7 to 9: Delegates, will be chosen to the county and Senate conventions of Oct. 9. to the city and Assembly conventions Oct. 10 and school district conventions Oct.

The building was named, however, the "Grand Central Palace of Industry." but it sounds like a mockery when the building is a great cave of emptiness and idleness. The capitalists who put up the building are behind the scheme. But the projectors of the Feir are threatened with a local danger.
