At the regular meeting last week, owing to the slim attendance, It was decided to adjourn until yesterday, alien the meeting would be held at 5 o'clock in the oflu-ps of the President, Elwin S. riper, at No. 186 Remscfl street. At the time appointed there were but three members present. In addition to the president, there were N.

The matters of special interest that were to have been presented were the recent transfer decision and the action of tho Brooklyn Rapid Transit in reghrd to ths fare to Coney Island.

They produced in 1800. 164,000.000 huehcla of nheat, anti In 1003, 874,000.000 bushels, at a value In 1903 of $233,000,000, their total nheat production being nearly bO per cent, of that of the entire United Staten.

Of oata they produced in 1903, 331.00ft.000 huahela, or 42 per cent, of the total product of the country, with a valuation of $99,000,000. Their production of barley In 1903 ivaa valued at over $25,000,000. and of rye at over nhtle their production of Iriah potntoea in 1903 wna over of bny, and of cotton (1899), $50,000,000.

The value of the fuim animals in these States in 1,890 as $7511.596.000, and on Jgn. 1, 1904, the value nan Add to these easily measured fnrrn JHOdurts the estimated value of the wool, thesugarr-4fcvduiry and poultry products, and the proportion of the live sttick au-nualiy turned into provisions, and it may be safely estimated that the agricultural products of a single year amount to 100 times the original cost of the area; or. in I other words, that its cost is repaid by 1 per cent, of the agricultural productions of i each recurring year.

The product of the mines is also of very great value. The coal produced in this area in 1902 amounted to 30,000,000 tons, against 14,000.000 tong in 1890; the iron ore to 15,859,000 tons in 1902, against tons in 1890; the silver product of 1902 to $37,837,576 in coining value, against $44,799,998 in 1890, and gold in 1902, against $10,650,000 in 1890. The prosperity shown by these figures ia further evidenced by the banking institutions of the Slate formed from this territory. Their capital stock amounted in 1903 to over $103,000,000, against about in 1890; their circulation of $56,453,000, against $15,644,000 in 1890 their loans-and discounts in 1903 to 412,000, against $269,016,000 in 1890, and their total resources in 1903 tip $1,713, 800,000, against $746,903,000 in 1890, while a still more gratifying evidence of the prosperity of this section is the fact that individual deposits in natiminl banks in 1903 amounted to $471,220,000, against $216,609,000 in 1890, an increase of more than $254,000,000 in individual deposits during the period. A study of educational conditions shows equally rapid and gratifying development.

The pupils enrolled in the public 'schools in the States in question In 1890 numbered 2.580,405, and in 1902, 3,426,593 the teachers employed numbered, in 1890, 89,558, and hi 1902, 110,263, and the ex penditure for public schools In 1800 was $30,284,752, and in 1902. $45,301,677. The number of pupils in attendance at high schools in 1902 was 131,271, with 5,004 teachers in attendance at normal schools, 14,033 students, with 580 teachers, and at higher educational Institutions, 45,802 students and 4,446 teachers.

Brackenridge, Acting Borough, President, yesterday took up the condition l)f Hudson avenue with tbe Cranford Company, which constructed a hig sewer in the thoroughfare. Mr. Brackenridge asked the contractor to tidy up the street. Unfortunately the borongh officials have no control over the thoroughfare. Under the law creating a Rapid Transit Commission, that body has the control of all improvements made necessary by the construction of rapid transit subways throughout the city." The sewer hich been placed on Hudson avenue was constructed under the jurisdiction of the Rapid Transit Commission and the work proceeded under the inspection of their engineers.

When the job was completed last December, it was turned over to the Rapid Transit Commission's engineers, and they declared the work done to their satisfaction. "The work of cleaning this street, said Mr. Brackenridge to-day, '1 not the duty of the borough official. The -matter is entirely in the hands of the Department of Street Cleaning. The Borongh Department of Puhlic W.rks had nothing to do with the work on the street.

The entire matter wee in the bands of the Rapid Transit Commissioners, who had sole juris- diction. No responsibility should be placed on the borough officials for the condition of the thoroughfare. We have called the attention of the Street Cleaning Department and the contractor to the condition of the street with the request that they 'do the necessary cleaning.
