The pumping sta tions got the bulk of what remained in the ap propriation. The Burean of Public Light spent $92,964 86, of which the East End Elec tricLigbt Company got $70,783 06, and the Pitts burg Gas Company, which once had the big end ot this money, received but $6,002 7L In the appropriations asked for 1890, the same nroDortions are maintained.

'' In their yearly report to Chief Bigelow, j5the Board oi Viewers show the amount oi J work done by them as follows: s They made 88 preliminary views on street VUopenings and C2 final views; 65 preliminary y -Jviews on sewers and 52 final views; 48 jpre-- fliminary views on grading, paving and , . curbing streets and 15 final views; 8 prelim- inary views on street vacations and 19 final 'views; 7 preliminary views on boardwalks, jS views on damages by grade and 1 special ' preliminary sewer view, making a total of 370 views, the receipts of which were $8,116. The-receipts of the Board of Viewers' of .fice for the year were $12,673, but part of this is for preliminary views that were held in 1889, but the fees are not collectable until 'the final views are held in 1890. Thus there is the sum of $4,557 for which the labor has been done on 217 preliminary views, but the amount will come in after the final reports ,od which it will be entered. - ' The expenses of the Board of Viewers for the year were: To viewers, $5,712; to trans portation, $109 89; salaries of clerk, draughtsman and messenger, $3,400; total! $9,221 89.

The Randall Clnb Will See Campbell In ancarated A Train of Pnllmaa Car Hired. The trip of the Randall Clnb to Columbns in January promises to be one of the big events of that lively and progressive organi zation. Already the number of members who have signified their intention of going number upward of 200, and many to hear from. The clnb has arranged for a special train of Pullman sleepers, with dining car and buffet attached, and which will be their home while gone. None but members ot the club, and subject to club discipline, will be permitted to accompany it One car will be especially reserved for the use of mem bers accompanied by ladies. The train will leave the Union, depot on Sundav evening, January 12, arriving at Columbus for breakfast. The Jackson Club, of Columbus, will be in waiting ta escort them to their post in the grand procession which will terminate at the Capi tol grounds, where the inauguration of Governor Campbell will take place. The afternoon will be devoted to visiting all the prominent places, including a visit to the Old Roman," Governor Campbell and an ex change of courtesies with the visiting clubs from Cincinnati and elsewhere. In the evening the inauguration ball will take place, and to which the club has a special invitation. After the ball the train will be in waiting, and the club will arrive in Pittsburg for a late breakfast on Tuesday morning. The Great Western Band will accompany, and furnish the music for the occasion. The entire expenses for the trip, including sleeping car and meals, will not exceed $11 per man.' President Frank J. WeLrel will accom pany, and General P. N. Guthrie act as marshal for the occasion. The committees in charge are leaving no stone unturned to make the trip an enjoyable one, and if the details are all not carefully attended to it will not be their fault. The announcement that the club would attend the inauguration has been heralded in all the papers in Ohio, and from the reception that has been prom ised and assuredt it behooves the boys to have a care for their good health. HE. JONES HON-COMMITTAL. He Doubts Whether the Free Bridge Prop osition Wonld be Popular. Mr. B. F. Jones was asked yesterday what he thought of the Counsilmanio reso lution requesting him to fill the vacancies in the Appraisers' Board on Free Bridges, and he said that until Common Council con curred there would be no action expected. The board originally consisted of Messrs. Jones, .Tames Park, Jr., George B. "White and Joseph Dilworth. They were given certain powers to condemn bridges. They had discussed the matter years ago, but judged it inexpedient to buy the bridges, as they thought the city could not afford to pay lor them then. Mr. Jones could not say whether the board would be filled or not, as he seemed to think the outlook no more favorable now than formerly. If the other branch con curs the subject will be considered. Mr. Jones thought it doubtful whether the people generally would care to pay for the bridges Those who did not use them to any great extent would not be benefited, and he was inclined to think they would ob ject to being taxed to tree the structures for those who made most nse of them. THE HOSPITAL COLLECTION. It Did Not Meet With the Snccesa Expected bythet Mannarers. "When Treasurer Charles B. McVay, of the Fidelity Title and Trust Company, counted up the cash which had been placed in the 28 hospital boxes which were dis tribute! about the city Saturday and Sun dav. he found only S150 39. where he had expected to find $5,000. It was described as a miserable failure bv a member-of the Hospital Saturday and Sunday Association. In one box only 38 cents was lonnd. "The people do not recognize the neces. sity of keeping up the hospitals," said Mr. McVay, "and they will have to be made cognizant of the fact that the number of charity patients who had to be cared lor in the West Penn, Homeopathic and Alle gheny General last year was 2,293, and the total number of days of hospital care for free patients was 86,842. which would make the cost of caring lor them $86,842, reckon ing at $1 per day for each patient. Al though we are greatly disappointed by the result of our scheme we are not discouraged, and will try again." BUILDIKG A HEW CHURCH. Teldell Is Now PrrncUmir In Huntingdon His Ln wycr Unpaid. The John Wesley Church has broken ground on Arthur street fdr the erection a church, parsonage and firebrick dwelling. The church is in a very prosperous condi tion.

Mr. Clinton is the gentleman who went South some time ago in behalf ot Yeldell, the colored man charged with murder by the South Carolina authorities. Last night Mr. Clinton said that Yeldell wai now pas tor of a church in Huntingdon, Pa. Some 350 is still owing Yeldell's lawyers, which he has made no attemptto pay.

A Member of the Charcfa Think That a. Pre ponderance of Opinion Favors Him. A member of Trinity Church said yester day: "Why don't you get some opinions from church members outside of the vestry on Mr. Maxwell's retention. Ycfn would find that fully two-thirds of the contribut ing members sympathize with the rector, and wonld vote for his retention. "A vote of the membership would cer tainly declare largely in favor of Mr. Max well, who has filled the pews ot Trinity Church for so iany years."
