Iti objeot It so obrloui and IU reasoning to (trained that It teemed to me to answer Iteelf. "This Is doubtless true to far a those ot na who hare had occasion to consider these ques- tions are concerned, but the consequenoes of the step taken br the Comptroller are so serl-u- s In their effect on public and private Inter- ests that It appears now that a few words of explanation may be valuable to those who hare ' not riven these matters special attention or who ha re not time or opportunity to study the lengthy statement submitted. "In the first place, the contention ot the tOpraptroller Is absolutely new. None ot his predecessors In tho Flnance.Department, none of the distinguished lawyers who have been Counsel to the Corporation, no Mayor In con- sidering the affairs of the city In hts messages, has ever tried before to prove that the margin ot the cltyf J liability must be nffected by con-- r treats rutin' Ig through many future years and I dependent tor their result on unknown quantt- - I ties or by the purchase by the city of lands to be 'paid for by assessment on private property and protected by the fund tor street and nark open-fug- which Is replenished from the proceeds ot tbe tax levy. If this now contention Is left out of consideration and the statement of the city's debt mode as every other Comptroller made It, the old city was on Dec. 31, 1807, In- side the debt limit by 930.803,317.83. (See Comptroller's communication to the Mayor, Page 4.) , "In the second place, the argument and fig- ures !' of the Comptroller are hopelessly confut- ing and Illogical. This Is shown most clearly to those who have not had time to read through the forty-tw- o pages of closely printed figures and explanations which he submits by tbe criticism of both tho Mayor and the President of the Council that they could not understand the statement when It was read to them. These gentlemen are well fitted by their education and their recent studies and experience to con- sider suoh a production, and their despair over It may well satisfy the less qualified citizen V? B that It la an enigma. I desire respeotfully to , )a add my testimony to theirs. i.Hr "In the third place, tho Comptroller's eonten- - t ivIr 'on '" k,s "sure is Inconsistent with his ex- - A jtltj pianattons in tbe text to an extent which fur-vyj- g nlshes a complete answer to all his claims. ' fnln? or tnitanoe. In his attempt to prove the old fffi C"T lQ debt beyond tbe limit, he makes on t igf page 7 of hts statement the following figures: BfK. Former Cilv cf JvlK .Vein Tort.

"It is clear, too, that If he be wrong, either I In tha legal contention that these Items belong In the statement or In the amounts which he has given for the Items, then his argument falls iff' to the ground, and the city Is free to finish Its I schools, comphto its flro and water supply, ( asphalt Its streets, carry out Its scnor systems, build Its bridges and docks and drives, Im- - ( prove and add to Its parks and playgrounds, and manage Us affairs in Uie sane and business- - like manner in whleh they baxo been carried on alnce 1871 by men of various parties. ' "I do not caro to argue at the present time a. l and In this way the question of law which he has 'i' II raised.

Hi alive can tell now, or for ten years to come, what '' ! the city really will ever owo or pay on these i. IS contracts. i VI "Now, lot us see what tho Comptroller is ? obliged to say himself as to this. On page 5 ho admits, 'In many of the city's largest contracts the estimated cost Is bused upon Hxod prices for uncertain quantities of work to be performed, such quantities having been estimated by de- partment engineers. This is tho case in the two large aqueduct contracts for the Cornell dam and the Jerome Park reservoir I. r an touch e, cubic yard for rock excavation and so much for earth. It Is manifest that these engi- neering estimates constitute the only mothod by which tho city's liability can be determined until the completion of tbe contracts, and that tbe actual amount ultimately paid may execea or-fa- short of such estimates.' "It Is clear that his own admission'answers bis figures. "Again, he states ....!.. ac- quired' at exactly $37,705,813.00. If this item goes out bis whole contention is gone. Half of the Item he reluctantly wipes out In the text on pages 7 and 8, as follows: T 'It only remains to state that of the forego- ing total of O7,7e8,813.00, representing the estimated liability or tbe former city ot New York for land acquired in condemnation pro- ceedings, mora than one-hal- or $10,74,U30.:iO, !i represents tbe cost ef opening and widening streets, which expense Is by law cbargenblo to tho "Fund for Street anil Park Openings." This fund was created at a time when it was feared that tbe former city of New York hid reached its constitutional limit of Indebtedness, I and its purpose was to provide a method for I ooenlng streets which would not require tbe city of New York to Incur Indebtedness there-- S (qr in excess of Its constitutional limit. With H this in view, the right to an action at law a against the city was expressly denied to prop-- erty owners, which provision of law still exists If y. The method by which It was lntonded a that the efllclency of the fund sbould be main-5- ) tolned was to lnsort In each year's tax levy Yn Ef amount equal to the difference between tho Ha-- 3 bllltles of tbe fund neper orders of court nnd 3 the cash balance thereof, resulting from pay-- 1 menls of assessment. If it should be t decided that tho peculiar provisions of law regulating proceedings Instituted undtr these I acta Impose no liability on tbe city other than that of Including certain amounts In the an-- I nual budgets, the excess of tbe Indebtedness ot I the former city of New York on Dec. 31, 1807, 1 would be reduced from -' 1,224,840.70 to $1,- - I 481.010,49.' w r 1 f "Any one whit knows these Items at all un--I I I derstands that any statement of amounts Is fit W only a guess at what will ultimately be de-I- W elded to be due In over 200 proceedings, some M i 1 of which will run for years and be appealed in fm I the courts, some of which havo never been a J (airly started, some of which will be dlseon-I'-- J tlnued, and all of which will be decided. If 5t II ever, on evidence not yet taken. Kg 1 " "Let us seo again what tbe Comptroller ad- - if it tnlts about this. On page 0 ho says: 'In all I 1) such Instances It Is, of. course. Impossible to WJ If state the liability of the city with exactness. ffi Ks tlmates of tne value of property differ wide-iF- l ' ' IF, and only upon tbe confirmation of the y I ports of the (!ommimloners of Katimato can aM the exact liability of the city be told.'

Mrs. Rogers said that she believed the words used were: "Until by the providence ot God wo are separated." She stated that as In- compatibility of temper sometimes develops, she thought the ceremony should provide for a separation where living together becomes un- bearable A Juror .wanted to know If she bolleved that If a spirit was seized at n siancolt would material- ize Into the medium. The Juror said he knew ot a case wbero the spirit was selzod and It vas found that the medium was tho substance gripped.

Among them are the contracts for a bridge across the Harlem River from 140th street to 140th street, and the viaduct across the Manhattan Valley, both of which were awarded to John C.

Server, who stated that the question for discussion was "What It tho true power of artt" She read Mre. Cnpe't paper. Among other things, It said; "The true power of any art Is to touch the soul. Art Is n developer of each one of us. True art Is the embodiment ot the good, the true, the beautiful. The best ago of art pro- duction Is the future. As man looks forward to higher and higher spiritual growth, art will be with him. Any work of art In any age has only becn'great when there was a groat soul behind It, High art kindles tbe soul and awakens that which is best In us." Mrs. Elizabeth Sheldon TUlinghast spoke on "Art In Decoration," but before sho opened her subject she gave tho Sorosisters a solemn warning. "It's the very last time that I shall ride this hobby in Sorosls.' sho declared, "I'vo ridden It, about this season, for so many years that thn balr Is all off. "Tho true province of art Is to mako ideals concrote and therefore Intelligible. It Is the common carrier that convoys Idaals from one mind to others. Its power Is in proportion to the purity and intensity of tho manifested Ideal, to the number of people It reachos. and to the universality with which it is underttood. Mcro imitation, however devor. Is not art. It Is artlsunslilp. '1 'io most marvellous technique arouses only gaping wonder and chattering ad- miration, which are alllod to ourloslty nnd our stmlsn ancestors. "True art amuses our emotions, cur imngi-nation- lour aspirations. It uplifts us out ot our animalism, out of mcro Intellectuality, Into the higher realms of ideals, consecrations, and universal love. Truo nrt fa allied to per- fection by its struggle to oxpreis It, nnd this vory reaching out links us to tho Eternal Uod HImelr. "S01110 minimize the power of nrt, because efTectsnroiiot Immediately nnd externally mani- fested. They forgot that tho real roward for doing one's utmost is not w calth, nor praUc, nor fame, but is the ability to do more and bettor. The true power of nil art seems to 1110 to bo Its ability to ralso our Ideals and ultimately to help us, to strengthen, to mellow, nnd to puri- fy our dolly conduct. "My particular part of the question then is. How does decorative ,nrt subserve this end! Decoration has been callod the art of every day. It appeals to us every n hero, at our toilet, at our meals, on the street, in our business, in our pleasuro. In our stndy, in our religion, as an emblem of our patriotism. "1 confess," said the sneaker, pointing to an American flag pin which she wore, "that this is tho only department of docoratlon In which I havo felt the, slightest Intcrost these last few weeks. "Thero Is a limit to our material needs, there is no limit to ourccBthetlc needs. Tho 0110 Is tho need of the Unite body, tho other ot tho soul. Through decoration wo can Berve our starved ttathetle nature, whilo we still min- ister to our pampered, abused bodies. For art in decoration means the marriage of uso and beauty, a marrlago that I can readily believe was made In heaven, whero they claim the only match factory is located." After defining boauty and Its physical and mental effects, the speaker continued: "Every one concedes that tho most lasting knowlodge is that unconsciously absorbed every day from our surroundings. It Is built Into every fibre. r or this reason 1 believe that, shams in deco- ration are positively and actively immoral In effect. They not only reflect a mentally nnd morally undeveloped condition in the maker and buyer but they tend to crcato falso stan- dards in the minds of all. especially of chil- dren, who are less wooden Lb on we older people suppose. "Living among furniture and fittings which seem to be one thing and really are; and are known to be something else and less, dulls the belief In the overwhelming necessity of being, rather than seeming. This I take it, is verita- bly tbe unpardonable si.., and that to which we aro as prone ,vs tho sparks to fly upward. I sum It all up in the phrase with which I commenced. The true power of decorative, ns of all art. consists in making Ideals concrete, not only that they may bo Intelligible to oth- ers and heip them, but also In order that we oursolves may grow to other ideals farther on and farther up toward that inn alto perfection wbero universal love emerges Into divine selfish- ness tho selfishness of service and absolute Mrs. K.

Mrs. Mary Ann Donovan, a fortune teller of 035 Drlggs avenue, Williamsburg, was arraigned yesterday In the Lea Avenue Pollco Court on the charge ot carrying on her business In viola- tion of the law. She moved Into her present quarters six months ago, and soon discovered that halt a dozen women In tho neighborhood were making money at fortune telling with cards. Mrs. Donovan put out a shingle nnd re- duced the price of a forluno told from fifty cents to a quarter. Gradually she drew all tbe trado away from her rivals. Among llicm was Mrs. KmmaMantman ot 123 North Fourth street. Mrs. Mantman pulled down her shingle just be- fore Christmas, when n concerted more was mado by Mrs. Donovan's rivals to break up her business nnd drlro her out of the neighborhood.

Former Cornptroller Athbal P. Fitch gare (rattat following-- statement resterart

"It did not teem to ma at flrtt that tha la-

bored araument la printed (arm which theComptroller ha riven out to prors that the old

.cltr of New York had exceeded Jti debt limitneeded anr answer. Iti objeot It so obrlouiand IU reasoning to (trained that It teemed tome to answer Iteelf.

"This Is doubtless true to far a those ot nawho hare had occasion to consider these ques-

tions are concerned, but the consequenoes ofthe step taken br the Comptroller are so serl-u- s

In their effect on public and private Inter-ests that It appears now that a few words ofexplanation may be valuable to those who hare

' not riven these matters special attention or whoha re not time or opportunity to study the lengthystatement submitted.

"In the first place, the contention ot thetOpraptroller Is absolutely new. None ot hispredecessors In tho Flnance.Department, noneof the distinguished lawyers who have beenCounsel to the Corporation, no Mayor In con-sidering the affairs of the city In hts messages,has ever tried before to prove that the marginot the cltyf J liability must be nffected by con-- r

treats rutin' Ig through many future years andI dependent tor their result on unknown quantt- -

I ties or by the purchase by the city of lands to be'paid for by assessment on private property andprotected by the fund tor street and nark open-fug-

which Is replenished from the proceeds ottbe tax levy. If this now contention Is leftout of consideration and the statement of thecity's debt mode as every other Comptrollermade It, the old city was on Dec. 31, 1807, In-

side the debt limit by 930.803,317.83. (SeeComptroller's communication to the Mayor,Page 4.), "In the second place, the argument and fig-

ures!' of the Comptroller are hopelessly confut-ing and Illogical. This Is shown most clearlyto those who have not had time to read throughthe forty-tw- o pages of closely printed figuresand explanations which he submits by tbecriticism of both tho Mayor and the Presidentof the Council that they could not understandthe statement when It was read to them. Thesegentlemen are well fitted by their educationand their recent studies and experience to con-

sider suoh a production, and their despair overIt may well satisfy the less qualified citizen

V? B that It la an enigma. I desire respeotfully to, )a add my testimony to theirs.i.Hr "In the third place, tho Comptroller's eonten- -

tivIr 'on '" k,s "sure is Inconsistent with his ex- -

A jtltj pianattons in tbe text to an extent which fur-vyj- g

nlshes a complete answer to all his claims.' fnln? or tnitanoe. In his attempt to prove the old

fffi C"T lQ debt beyond tbe limit, he makes ontigf page 7 of hts statement the following figures:BfK. Former Cilv cfJvlK .Vein Tort.

HR Excess over constitutional limit (34.224,(140 71

' ' A 'lanes at these figures shows that If the' kI Comptroller had not dragged In the item for

'Contract Liability' and.tbat 'For Lands Ao--quired,' the old city was nearly forty millions

I below the debt limit."It is clear, too, that If he be wrong, either

I In tha legal contention that these Items belongIn the statement or In the amounts which hehas given for the Items, then his argument falls

iff' to the ground, and the city Is free to finish ItsI schools, comphto its flro and water supply,( asphalt Its streets, carry out Its scnor systems,

build Its bridges and docks and drives, Im- -

( prove and add to Its parks and playgrounds,and manage Us affairs in Uie sane and business- -

like manner in whleh they baxo been carriedon alnce 1871 by men of various parties. '

"I do not caro to argue at the present timea. l and In this way the question of law which he has'i' II raised. The blockade which it may place on

n 1 New York for many years, if,sustalned, will bef.; jl '

so ruinous that I havo no doubt It will beP II fully dlsousscd and heard in tho courts, where

V It belongs. Hut the figures are the Comptrol- -

P I ler'a own. He viorks them out on tho 'ContractI I Liability' Item to 5, To any onet' I hcrknows that the contracts which ho Keen's II sidering nix over 1(H) In number, that work has

5 II not been cuiuuiencrd on many of tbein, thatft ( others have been in progress for many yours,S HI that some of them sre not to bo fulfilled for

HI years to come, that the amounts to be paid un-- iIf, Sex tbem depend on tho quantities of rock or of

lift' HI earth found below tho surface, much of whichtifl will not bo rcuclu-- In tho Comptroller's term of111 Iff IL' ofllce, and on other uncorlninties, that tucaolU Hi! oontracts are affected by disputes between theivL J citv and the contractors, and by litigation often

WlJ of long duration, and by all tho contingencies otcYm! 1 human lite and of buslnoia, it Is plnin that therot ) U must have been a settled determination behind

0 e. calculation so daring as this. Against his'J Itotement Ot the city's liabilities 00 these con-ff- T

0 tracts, down to DO conts. I desire respectfully toHi rt put my statement, founded on four ycar" ex-f-

i perience with these public works, that no man?"' Hi alive can tell now, or for ten years to come, what'' ! the city really will ever owo or pay on thesei. IS contracts.i VI "Now, lot us see what tho Comptroller is

? obliged to say himself as to this. On page 5 hoadmits, 'In many of the city's largest contractsthe estimated cost Is bused upon Hxod prices foruncertain quantities of work to be performed,such quantities having been estimated by de-

partment engineers. This is tho case in thetwo large aqueduct contracts for the Cornelldam and the Jerome Park reservoir I. r antouch e, cubic yard for rock excavation and somuch for earth. It Is manifest that these engi-neering estimates constitute the only mothodby which tho city's liability can be determineduntil the completion of tbe contracts, and thattbe actual amount ultimately paid may execeaor-fa- short of such estimates.'

"It Is clear that his own admission'answersbis figures.

"Again, he states ....!.. ac-quired' at exactly $37,705,813.00. If this itemgoes out bis whole contention is gone. Half ofthe Item he reluctantly wipes out In the text onpages 7 and 8, as follows:

T 'It only remains to state that of the forego-ing total of O7,7e8,813.00, representing theestimated liability or tbe former city ot NewYork for land acquired in condemnation pro-ceedings, mora than one-hal- or $10,74,U30.:iO,!i represents tbe cost ef opening and wideningstreets, which expense Is by law cbargenblo totho "Fund for Street anil Park Openings."This fund was created at a time when it wasfeared that tbe former city of New York hidreached its constitutional limit of Indebtedness,

I and its purpose was to provide a method forI ooenlng streets which would not require tbe

city of New York to Incur Indebtedness there-- S

(qr in excess of Its constitutional limit. WithH this in view, the right to an action at lawa against the city was expressly denied to prop--

erty owners, which provision of law still existsIf y. The method by which It was lntondeda that the efllclency of the fund sbould be main-5- )

tolned was to lnsort In each year's tax levy YnEf amount equal to the difference between tho Ha-- 3

bllltles of tbe fund neper orders of court nnd3 the cash balance thereof, resulting from pay-- 1

menls of assessment. If it should bet decided that tho peculiar provisions of law

regulating proceedings Instituted undtr theseI acta Impose no liability on tbe city other than

that of Including certain amounts In the an-- I

nual budgets, the excess of tbe Indebtedness otI the former city of New York on Dec. 31, 1807,1 would be reduced from -' 1,224,840.70 to $1,- -

I 481.010,49.'w r

1 f "Any one whit knows these Items at all un--II I derstands that any statement of amounts Is

fit W only a guess at what will ultimately be de-I-

W elded to be due In over 200 proceedings, someM i 1 of which will run for years and be appealed in

fm I the courts, some of which havo never beena J (airly started, some of which will be dlseon-I'--J

tlnued, and all of which will be decided. If5t II ever, on evidence not yet taken.

Kg 1 " "Let us seo again what tbe Comptroller ad- -

if it tnlts about this. On page 0 ho says: 'In allI 1) such Instances It Is, of. course. Impossible to

WJ If state the liability of the city with exactness.ffi Ks tlmates of tne value of property differ wide-iF- l

' ' IF, and only upon tbe confirmation of the y

I ports of the (!ommimloners of Katimato canaM the exact liability of the city be told.'HI I "It is clear that this admission takes awayPV-- I Klltslgnlflcanco from a calculation of presentfcv.Vvi Indebtedness carried out to an exact figure.aLt'rtW "In short, with every doubtful liolnt docldedstmt II. by the Comptroller against the city's right toISC' It exist and to buy what It needs for Its existencea 1 the flffuros which he gives aro so In conflict

I with bis onn admissions nnd nlth the knownI facts.' and with the uniform procedure heroic-la- f

I fore, that, evnn If his Isw weru good, his newIS'; 1 poiitlon U iimtnrrHntril und ought to bom! promptly abandoned.In. li "It would not be dilllctilt to glvo other nndaVWk(! equally good renons against the Comptroller's

lavTv contention, but I uui sure that tho good eensoIS' Sk rf the luuxhii'ul authorltle.i will piovail overE" s these imasinary technUallties, mid that thom' city will tie permitted to go on Its natural rauit

-Astoria yesterday afternoon. A largenumber were present, and every womnn ap-

peared to havo on a new spring bonnet. Afterthe regular luncheon Mrs. Demies T. S. Dennl-so-

Flrtt called tha meetingto order, and tho regular monthly literary

followed. Mrs. Mary Dame nail, thePresident, was too 111 to be present.

The Sorosls Carol Club did some very goodsinging,' and Mrs. Kvclyn B. Harrier recited.Mrs. Theroso Douglns sang.

Mrs. Dennlson announced that the Committeeon Art had charge ot the programme and thatIts Chairman, Mrs. Kmlly Palmer Capo, was 111

and could not come. She Introduced Mrs. KatoM. Server, who stated that the question fordiscussion was "What It tho true power ofartt" She read Mre. Cnpe't paper. Amongother things, It said;

"The true power of any art Is to touch thesoul. Art Is n developer of each one of us.True art Is the embodiment ot the good, thetrue, the beautiful. The best ago of art pro-

duction Is the future. As man looks forward tohigher and higher spiritual growth, art will bewith him. Any work of art In any age has onlybecn'great when there was a groat soul behindIt, High art kindles tbe soul and awakens thatwhich is best In us."

Mrs. Elizabeth Sheldon TUlinghast spoke on"Art In Decoration," but before sho opened hersubject she gave tho Sorosisters a solemnwarning.

"It's the very last time that I shall ride thishobby in Sorosls.' sho declared, "I'vo riddenIt, about this season, for so many years thatthn balr Is all off.

"Tho true province of art Is to mako idealsconcrote and therefore Intelligible. It Is thecommon carrier that convoys Idaals from onemind to others. Its power Is in proportion tothe purity and intensity of tho manifested Ideal,to the number of people It reachos. and to theuniversality with which it is underttood. Mcroimitation, however devor. Is not art. It Isartlsunslilp. '1 'io most marvellous techniquearouses only gaping wonder and chattering ad-

miration, which are alllod to ourloslty nnd ourstmlsn ancestors.

"True art amuses our emotions, cur imngi-nation-

lour aspirations. It uplifts us out otour animalism, out of mcro Intellectuality,Into the higher realms of ideals, consecrations,and universal love. Truo nrt fa allied to per-fection by its struggle to oxpreis It, nnd thisvory reaching out links us to tho Eternal UodHImelr.

They forgot that tho real roward fordoing one's utmost is not w calth, nor praUc, norfame, but is the ability to do more and bettor.The true power of nil art seems to 1110 to bo Itsability to ralso our Ideals and ultimately tohelp us, to strengthen, to mellow, nnd to puri-fy our dolly conduct.

"My particular part of the question then is.How does decorative ,nrt subserve this end!Decoration has been callod the art of every day.It appeals to us every n hero, at our toilet, atour meals, on the street, in our business, in ourpleasuro. In our stndy, in our religion, as anemblem of our patriotism.

"1 confess," said the sneaker, pointing to anAmerican flag pin which she wore, "that this istho only department of docoratlon In which Ihavo felt the, slightest Intcrost these last fewweeks.

"Thero Is a limit to our material needs, thereis no limit to ourccBthetlc needs. Tho 0110 Istho need of the Unite body, tho other ot tho

soul. Through decoration wo can Berveour starved ttathetle nature, whilo we still min-ister to our pampered, abused bodies. For artin decoration means the marriage of uso andbeauty, a marrlago that I can readily believewas made In heaven, whero they claim the onlymatch factory is located."

After defining boauty and Its physical andmental effects, the speaker continued: "Everyone concedes that tho most lasting knowlodgeis that unconsciously absorbed every day fromour surroundings. It Is built Into every fibre.r or this reason 1 believe that, shams in deco-ration are positively and actively immoral Ineffect. They not only reflect a mentally nndmorally undeveloped condition in the makerand buyer but they tend to crcato falso stan-dards in the minds of all. especially of chil-dren, who are less wooden Lb on we older peoplesuppose.

"Living among furniture and fittings whichseem to be one thing and really are; and areknown to be something else and less, dulls thebelief In the overwhelming necessity of being,rather than seeming. This I take it, is verita-bly tbe unpardonable si.., and that to whichwe aro as prone ,vs tho sparks to fly upward.I sum It all up in the phrase with which Icommenced. The true power of decorative, nsof all art. consists in making Ideals concrete,not only that they may bo Intelligible to oth-ers and heip them, but also In order that weoursolves may grow to other ideals farther onand farther up toward that inn alto perfectionwbero universal love emerges Into divine selfish-ness tho selfishness of service and absolute
