PotJOHKiKrstK, N. Y Dec. l.-Tho Dutchess
Coupty Mutual Insurnnco Company was to day
made an Issue In tho war so bitterly waged In
Dutchess county between tho Hunter and Vail
wings of tho Republican pirty. At tho last
election an nttetutit wn mado to beat County
Treasurer Ilaubencstel, a Hunter man, by
attacking his credit, but tho olors resented
tho trick by piling iron plurality of nearly 1.000
for Ilaubencstel, To-day President ken Is II.
Vail of tho Dutchess Mutual Insurance Com
pany, leader of the Vail n ing, addressed a letter
to Superintendent of Insurnnco Payn, aimed at
Deputy Superintendent Huntor. Tho letter
road si
"For somo tiino certain parties have Indus
trloiuly circulated false and malicious reports
concerning the financial Mnndlng of tho
Dittcheis County Mutual Insurance Company.
I regret to siy further that threats regard
ing olllclnl action toward this company, Im
peaching Its standing ami calculated lo
do harm to Its butlnoM, have emanated,
as 1 m informed upon rcllnblo author
ity, from ono or moro person' connected
with tho Insurance Department of tho State of
New ork, coupling these threats with the fnlso
charges to which lliave referred, whlili tend lo
Klio them an npparent nlr of truth to the unin
formed. In my opinion, thit Interests of this
company and its natrons demand that the at
tention of tho responsible head of tho depart
ment should bo called to the fiet, and nt tho
earns time that the department be requested, at
Its most convenient opportunity, to make such
Investigation of the ntlatrs of the company as
shall set at rest any rumors or talk of the char
acter to which I bavo alluded. A compliance
with this request at an early date will be ap
preciated. Every facility for such examination
will be furnished by tho com any and its
officers."
Mr. Hunter has repeatedly denied tn Inter
views that his political battle was being waged
In the form of nn attack on the Dutchess Mu
tual. When seen by a reporter to-night Mr.
Vail said:
"The company welcomes any Investigation.
We are able to snow now the biggest net surplus
for the stxty-ono years of the company's history.
Wo are In a flourishing condition. Lotevam.
Inors come on as soon as they please. There
may be a little sting In tho letter, but If there Is
I guess it is all right."

Irani In the County. ,
William Brookdold, who has opposed tho
present Republican organization slnco be was
defeated for re-election ns President of tho
County Committee in 1803, and who has been
loudest in denouncing It as fraudulent and In
his demands for a now Republican organiza
tion in tho county, is disposed to listen to tho
pacificatory propositions of President Quigg
looking to a harmonious union of all Republi
cans. He aatd yesterday:
"If tho machine Is really willing to abandon
its present rolls and hnvo an entirely new en
rollment under the direction of a committee
composed of disinterested men, of such charac
ter and reputation as will Inspire eonlldence In
tho work when completed, it seems to mo not
impossiblo to secure party harmony. Tho
union cannot, honovcr, bo brought about
through the columns of the newspapers, nor can
tho matter much longer bo delaj ed. Another
organization is sure to bo formed, unless tho
machine gives posltlvo ovidenco of its sincere
purpose to abandon its preient attitude."
Tho Executive Committeo of Mr. Urookueld's
faction jvlll moot at Lyric Hall to-morrow night
to consider the matter of a further extension of
the organization, and a union with other Re
publicans who havo recently expressed a dcslro
for a neparnto organization. It wus said last
night that Mr. llrooktteld may suggest a post

of Mr. (julgg's plan for reorganization.

3IVEHERRY STREET'S BASKS.
Horo of Taem Than Saloons, and All with Bis
lTladow Dlsplnjo or ITraltb.
If financial centres were Judged by the num
ber of banks, a roan might be pardoned for sup
posing that Mulberry street was bigger than
Wall street. In six blocks in Mulberry street
there are thirty banks. That Is an average of
nvo banks to the block, and theso six blocks aro
In the humblest part or the street, too.
There are more banks In Mulberry street
than there are saloons. In these samo six
blocks where there are thirty banks there are
only" fourteen saloons, or an average of a llttlo
moro than two to n block, and It is pretty safe
to say that in Mulberry street tho banks get
more of the money of the laboring man than tho
saloons. Mulberry street Is probably tho only
place in the country where the banking busi
ness and the saloon business go band In hand,
too. Of tho fourteen saloons In theso six blocks
no fewer than toven aro nlso banking houses.
Tho wiloon occupies ono-half of the store and
I the bank tbo other half. On tint saloon side tho i
i window is tilled up with bottles with gaudy la
bel and with wbUkcy nnd beer signs. Un tho
bank sido the wide window sill Is covered ami
In koidii Instances Is piled high with bank notes '
nnd money. The proprietor occupies a place
inside tho bank window and attends to the
bunking business, and the bartender on tho
other side attends to the saloon business.
All the Italian bunks seek lo draw customers
by an ostentatious show of wealth. A idle of
money In tho window is tho llm requisite of a
surccsxfnl banking business in Mulberry street. I
and In tho window of evcrv onu of the thlrty
bnnks In tho six blocks referred to there is a pile
of money. Tho bankers resort to all manner of
iloWeCK tn Illlike tho piles look bigger, homo
of them crumple thu hinknotcj upo that tho
I occupy nioru room. Others bulll up it mound
of p per and then imcr It with five ami ten
dollur bills so flint tho wholo pile looks liku
mouc). lnthisnii) urouplouf hundred doll wc
can he made to look like a touplu of hundred
thoUMind. Another devlic Is to cut strips nf
paper of thu size of bunk notes, daub the edges
gruen, nnd then use tbo strips us Hllim-H lor
packa.'CJ of notes. Half n dozen real bills are
then nut on top, unit lixir n dozen on tho bottom
of each pai kugc. The odi n of thoo are turned
up o that the casual observer surel) thinks the
whole package is oniric up of genuine noli-...
Stilt another device is to liiivon hot .n the win

In one of the windows one dnj last ucA tlicio

Position Would Put tbo City at the Mercy
or Iho' Ka.t Jersey Water Company.
Tho Committeo of tho Wholo of tho Jersey
City Hoard of Finance, which has under con
sideration Mayor Hoos's veto of tbo specifica
tions for a new water supply, which were pre
pared by C. C. Vermeulo and Garwood Ferris,
expert engineers, submitted a report hst night
recommending that no action bo taken on tho
veto, nnd sharply criticising his objections to
tho specifications. Tbo report snys that tho
committee has nrrhed at this conclusion for
tho reason tint It believes thnt it would lo
futile at this tlmo to override the veto. Tho
committee, howotcr. feels that the public
should bo mndo ncaunlntod with tho cited tho
ndoptlon of tho recommendation.) mado by the
Chief Kxecutho would hnvo upon tho water
question nnd that tho less alteration mndo in
tho specifications, as at present constituted, tho
better for tho Interests of the city.
The rcputt snys that his Honor's objections
to tho three1, plans proposed seem to bo aimed,
first, at nny plan which docs not dclhcr tho
wholo supply, without pumping, nt high ser
vice, notwithstanding that tbo city does not
use moro than ono-tlfth of its supply at a high
servico dotation; secondly, at any plait whlih
permits of the oxerclso of great economy by
building works at first just sufllclent for tho
city's needs, such works to be afterward in
creased when the city shall be In a better finan
cial condition,
Tho committee says that it his Honor's rec
ommendation to confine the bidding entirely
to plan A Is adopted, tho result will bo to put
tho city absolutely nt tho mercy of tho Knst Jer
sey Water Company, and to his claim that a
supply of 3A,00O,otM) gallons dally for the city
is entirely lundeiiunte, it retorts that last year
tho city uted 2U.00O.00O gallons daily, while
since then tne city haa lost Bayonnr, using
U.tWO.OOO gallons .dnlly, which should reduce
the consumption to tM.lHKMloo gallons dally.
"The natural deduction from tho line of rea
soning followed out by your rommlttce. In con
sidering the objections of his Honor the Mayor','
says tho rciiort, "is that lo adopt his sugges
tions would result, in the main, in placing the
city absolutely nt the mercy of one of tho water
companies. our committee cannot and will
nit l'cllevo that tho Mayor realized tho effect
his veto would havo upon tbc mutter, or it
would not hao been signed by him.
"Your board may err In declaring in favor of
specifications so perfect from tho standfiolntof
fully protecting tho Intercstt of tho oitv as to
ninko n bidding by nny company or contractor
Impossible, but It enn never atford to err by
adopting specifications so drawn as to muko
bidding Impossiblo for any ono but ono com
pany or contractor."

A Sort or Properly That the United States Are
Able to Do Without.
There are. In all tho world, 1,000 submarlno
cnbles owned by Governments besides thoe
owned by Individuals and corporations, and
they havo a length of 20,000 miles. Every
Important country In the world, and nearly
every minor country as well, has somo such na
tional cablo except tho United States. Norway
owns ZU4 cables; England, 2411, including tho
Indian cables; France, 54, with a length of
5,000 miles; Germany, 54; Austria, 35; Greece,
17; Denmark, 00; Spain, 15; Turkey, 23; Japan,
34; Itusila, 0; Sweden, 14; Italy. 39; Holland,
20 and Belgium 2, Tho explanation of this na
tional onnershlp in cables, to nhich tho United
States arc tho only conspicuous exception, is
found in tho fact that in most foreign coun
tries control of the telegraph service Is under
dlrcitlon of the Government, nnd that tho
cables may bo needed for war purposes.
In addition to the cables onned by Govern
ments, there are about .too owned by corpora
t lons.n Ith an aggregate length of 1 50,000 miles.
The longest of these is tho cable hotewen China
and Australia. Tho cable betweon Kgypt anil
British India is another of tho ery long noes,
I and still another is tho Brazilian cablo between
Lisbon and Pcrnambuco. Not ono of the north
I Atlantic cables can compete with these in
I length. Tho French cablo from Brest to Capo
I Cod. with a branch to &t. Pierre, is :t,000 miles
long. Tho Commercial cable fro ji Wulerilllc,
Ireland, to Nova Seotls, is nearly 3.O0O miles
and the Anglo-American cablo from Penzance
to Nova Scotia is about 2.1100 miles long. Cables
owned by corporations pur lietter as n rule than
those under direct or quasi-Got eminent control.
Ti.s Atlantic telcjraph cablo was successfully
laid In littl, nnd the length of tho original cablo
was l.SSU mile i. Tho Great Eastern, which
laid it, mado no higher run than 124 miles a
day and no loner run than 105. Fifteen days
were spent in tho work.

"NOT WISELY, BUT TOO WELL." .-M
The effects of " citlnic an.i drlnklnff, not wisely, but too well," are sufficiently well known t uflfl
not to iieeM ait) lengthy description. . H
When you lvi;lii to feel " Hvcrisli;" when you fill to relislt your food; when you look upon -ill
meal time as rather a bore tlian otherwise; when you cannot eat a good meal without db- 'lH
comfort and distressing symptoms after It; when you become heavy, slujrgish, drowsy, and H
lethart;ici when you are constipated; when bile poison is retained in your systems when you a
are sulTerm from uric acid, causin? incipient gout and rheumatism, laying the foundation for fSI
gouty ece'in and other complaints it is at this sta?e, espec.ally after a busy or trying season, ItH
customary for a medlcarman to order you to " drink the waters " of certain Eurooean mineral ;f
springs. if
This treatment by the experience of tens of thousands has been found to be highly effict- iT'statta!
clous, but is almost necessarily more or less nasty, and invariably so costly that the compari- J
tively poor man or woman Is altogether debarred from such a salutary course of treatment V'H
John Strange Winter (of "Booties' Baby" fame) says: "It does Indeed seem hard when x
doctor orders a course at an expensive foreign spa to one who can scarcely keep himself In H
bread and butler here ; yet what Is a doctor to do f" lH
The obvious reply to John Strange Winter's query is for the doctor to advise, as the most 't-H
eminent medial m.'n of all countries now do, the use of Kutnow's Improved Effervescent Itl
Powder in a tumbler of water, lulf an hour before breakfast in the morning and again upon 'H
retiring at night. ''1
Kutnow's Powd-'r, whilst containing all the curative constituents of celebrated European Ol
mineral springs, and the salts evaporated from them, yet dilTers from both in being palatable
and ertervescent, instead of being nauseous and drastic. s$
INDIGESTION, STOMACHIC COMPLAINTS, LIVER DISORDER, &c. 3D
Kutnow's Powder counteracts acidity and acid dyspepsia, and is beneficial in dispersing '?ll
flatulence, gastralgia, catarrh, and inilammation of the stomach, indigestion. &c "ilH
The use of Kutnow's Powder tends to disperse congestion of the liver. It exerts a coun- ::H
teracting inlluence in cases of fatty liver, causing the dissolution of excessive adipose deposit In "
the liver. It stimulates the bile to a natural and normal flow, and thereby greatly improves tho I'l
general condition of the health, gaiety of spririts, energy, &c. JH
THE BRITISH MEDICAL JOUBNAL 11.1
(Sept. 10, 1802) says: ,
"Messt-s. Kuttiow & Co. showed an Iniprored EHorvcsccnt Powder, decidedly moro iH
f.ilatablc than thu orilltiiry salt, evaporated at the springs, of which it reproduce tho H
heraioutic effects, whilt t'trectually covering the nauseous taste and objectionable bit- H
ter llavor of sulphate of hoda. It is gentle, eflcrvcscunt, and is a very efficient and agree- H
able aperient." H
The irEDICAti TIMIZS and nOSPITAL GAZETTE: H
