It is the inten tion both of the mayor and some of the councilman to employ expert accountants to work with the comptroller's office. At the same meeting it Is Intended to start planning for an improved system of au diting and checking. The mayor says lie does not believe it necessary to go back more than two years lr. the accounts of former City Treasurer Hennlngs. as he is satisfied an lnvostlga. tlon 'made by a -bond company at that time is conclusive In showing affairs to be in proper condition. . "The new council Intended to make a thorough check as now outlined." said Councilman Brucker. "The expose of tho methods used in thu police court simply brought the matter to development a lit tle Quicker than would have been case otherwise. It is proposed to go ovur the. record involving the expenditure of luuney for all purposes. nrasnn to Suspect Fraud. 'We have no reason to believe anything Is wrong, but we wish to satisfy ourselves that affairs are right." Deputy Comptroller Cosgrove and an as slslsnt are still checking over police eourt accounts, but have not reached a stage to show results Miyor Dahlman resents the report that he tins failed to sign pardons for city prisoners, ile explains that the system employed requires his signature after the prisoner lias been released from the city Jail by verbnl orders through the chief of police, and the reoord has been made Complete at the police court. When the proper blanks are filled out they are re turned to the mayor who signs them, makes a permanent record and returns the documents to the clerk of the police court for fling. Acoording to the mayor the deputy comptroller merely got hold of , snme psrdnns not yet properly executed and which were to be sent to his office for signature. With 1 the county Jail the procedure Is different towards city prisoners incsreersted there. The executive signs the pardon first and the clerical work Is attended to later. Charles M. Pepper, a distinguished news paper man, who has traveled extensively, especially in the Latin-American republics, and who Is a member of the permanent pan-American railway committee, is the author of a valuable book on the canal and Its results under the title "Panama to Patagonia." Analysis is made of national tendencies, political Institutions and gov ernmental policies, natural recourses and their lines of development, existing popu lations and bases of immigration and llscal systems. While presenting exact and de tailed information for those who may travel or settle In Panama and South America, the author's aim is to put the very much larger number of people who re main at home In sympathetic touch' with places, scenes and conditions, so that they may follow with Intelligent Interest all the phases of the canal's Influence and devel opment. The economic effect of the Panama canal is discussed with special reference to the commercial and Industrial influence on the west coast countries, at South America. Comment is made on the response of those countries to the action of the United States In undertaking the construction of the waterway. In an analysis of the geographical radius of the canal the opinion Is maintained that the Andes are no limitation and that the grain fields of northwestern Argentina, through the pressure of population west ward and the building of Intercontinental railway spurs, will contribute to the traffic of the canal, while a measure of Amazon commerce will flow to and from the Pa cific. The proposition Is advanced that the Pacific coast trafllc, on account of the facilities afforded by the waterway. In the future will form a larger proportion In the total of South American commerce. The creation of a north and south trade current is declared to be an assured result of the canal. The diversion of traffic from Cape Morn . and the Straits of Magellan, while Important, Is given less significance than the growth of commerce which will result from the stimulus to Industrial and com mercial enterprise. This Increased com merce Is declared to be the overshadowing element In the waterway as an economic factor. THE YELLOWSTONE PARK. Plan your Pacific Coast tour so as to include this, won derland.

This book is well written volume of Action, especially strong In Its subtle delineations of char acter, skilfully achieved by a masterly hand that Is guided by the power to assume different points of view. It Is not often that a writer is able to show the reader the varied opinions of individuals on their fellow characters In the dramatis personae. Wherefore this writer's accomplishment Is the more remarkable. Many of the little trials and tribulations that enter Into fac ulty life are woven into this absorbing story, and It Is most original in Its con ception as being a fresh . presentation of college life, not from the standpoint of the college student's part In things, but in gathering from the inner circles of the real college "machinery," the dean, the pro fessors, the trustees and the alumnae, the threads of interest. Tbat the book's author U no mere novice Is Immediately apparent, and It Is to be hoped the cloak of anonym ity will be thrown aside, since no idle curiosity leads one to be interested in its writer, who seems to desire the book to be received solely on Its own merits. Pub lished by Hubert (Jrler Cooke. "The Scarlet Empire." by David M. Parry, president of the National Association of Manufacturers, is his prophecy of the doom of. the socialists-' theory of .equality, lie has attempted In his story to reduce socialism to an absurdity by carrying out lis principles to their logical conclusion.

It is the aim of each number in the working body to do as little work as possible, since there Is no reward for Industry ; "consequently the dis cipline of the labor supervisors Is that of the chain gang. The daily ration is In sufficient for big men, too large for small ones; this to produce uniformity of stature and strength.

Fifth avenue and the Bowery that's where the author finds the types or charac ter that he reproduces with Inimitable drollery in this collection- of twenty-five tales of city life.
