It will cost very little to remove the present trouble, but the’ city, acting upon the advice of the Law Department, will do noth- ing, lest the removal of the scow in question should be construed as an assumption on the part of the city of control of the stream, which might lead to untold costs.

Atarecent meeting of the Council a petition was presented calling upon the Department of Public Works to dredge the river south of Ash- land avenue. which was referred, with power to act. The mutter was referred to the Corpora- tion Counsel, and yesterday he gave um opinion, which was, in effect. that the river at the point named could only be dredged by ordinance, and that Mr. Waller had Hgpeuthority whatever to act, Mr, Adams boids it the work can be done by the city, but that it, must be done by ordinance, and that the money’to pay for it must be provided either by general tax or special as- gessment, and that the Council cannot delegate its authority i the matter to Mr. Waller or any one cise. The opinion willbe laid betore the Council to-morrow evening. THE ANALYZING BUREAU. Some weeks ago an analyzing bureau was added to the Health Department, and a gentle- man was imported to take charge of it. Since then, except when sick, he has been engaged testing samples of vinegar, and yesterday he about completed his labors. \ His report was not ready for the public. but it will be given to- morrow, and {t is understood that it will show that sulphuric acid has been and is a prominent ingredient in the manufacture of “pure cidar vinegar” in the city. He bas examined twenty- six Samples of the article retailed, each sample representing 2 manufacturer, and is, disclosures" promise to be of consider- able ‘interest. His next attack will be upon the milk-dealers, and here he has a bi field, for there is scarcely a doubt but nine out o! every ten gallonssold in the city are adulterated in one way or another, or are absolutely the Product of cows fed at the distilleries. Teport on this question will be looked forward to with considerable interest, and it is to be hoped that if there appears any basis for pros- ecution that the Health Department will not be as slow as ithas been. THE COMMITTEES. The strife about the appointment of the new Committees of the Council continues, and yes- terday another of the Slay org Committee re- pelled and identified himself with the: opposition, things in n @ecidedly mixed con- ition, from the fact that two members of the Committee on Committees now stand pledged to oppose the report agrecd to, first, last, and alt the time. It is not known who gave the work of the Commitice away, but it ig known that one or more Aldermen had conics of the proposed new committco list last night, and were exhibiting it, and that there fs a pros: ect that by to-morrow evening a new list will save been prepared. backed by enough votes to carry it through. The opponents of the Com- mittee’s list persist in insisting that the Mayoris at the bottom of the whole alfair. and this geems, on the surface, to he the peincipal ele- ment of dissatisfaction. As a whole, they arc not specially opposed to the list, but they object to the spirit: in which it was pre- pared, and are determined to fight it to the bit- ter end, and in their fight urze that tho Mayor has interfered where he hadno right to. But the contest, they would have it appenr, is not so much for piace on the part of themselves as for organization against the Mayor, on the assump- tion that he has sought to fix things to his liking without = regard to Aldermanic preferences, otc. The whole thing is a small one’ to quarrel over, secmingly, but there is more tocommittee positions than the uninitiated think. For instaace, if one is on the Raflroad Committee, and nas freights to pay in business, one, is supposed to enjoy some ina- terial advantages that one upon another Com- mittee cannot thoroughly appreciate;_xnd then, again, being on the Gas Committee has its legitimate benefits. But. aside from such considerations, each Alderman has moro or less of persona} pride, and their position on committees fo BEFORE way toward uilding them up or tearing them down in the political world, and here, probably, is the real cause of the contest, thourh. as before stated, they desire to be understood in this caso ns hav- ing no other grievance than the Mayor's inter- ference. which leaves ALDRICH’S BILL. SEXATOR LOGAN AND THE MERCHANTS. Sonator Logan held a short conferenco rester- day afternoon at bis room in the Palmer House with Jobn Tyrrell, of the firm of Burley & ‘Tyr- rell, John E. Wilson, of Wilson Bros., Appraiser Ham, and John G. Wilson, of G. W. Sheldon & Co., in relation to the Aldrich Inmediate-'Trans- portation bill. Senator Logan explained that the measure had alrendy passed the House, and was now in the hands of the Finance Committee of the Senate. An umendment has been sent in by the Treasury Department, however, provid- ing for quadruplicate instend of triplicate in- wuices, and bis own opinion was that, if Mr. John G. Wilson, who understood the subject very fully, were ta go down to Washington and plain that the imendiment was wholly unneces: sary, the Committee would recommend the pus: sage of the bill in the Senate without it. In fact, allof the members of the Committee ex- cept Senator Bayargl its Chairman, were in fu- yor of the bill a§ It stood, and Senator Logan believed that even Bayard could be persuaded that the amendment really cut no figure, aud that to report it to the Senate with a recom- mendation that it be tacked on to the bill would only Kill the mensure,for the reason that the DIN, as thus amended, would have to start on iis travels nguin through the two Houses, and there would hardly be time for that this session. Tho Senator further snid that be would not discuss the question whether he should be in Washington now or not, but he cer- tainly should return there before the close of the session—which he did not think would occur as early as some Beanie imagined— and work for the passage of the bill with ail his might. The first. thing to do, howevor, was to {an early and a favorable report from the Committee on Fjnance, and this important end, he believed, could be accomplished if Mr. Wil- son or somebody equally well posted were to go down to Washington and appear before the Comuittee. Mr. Wilson acknowledged the value of tho Senator's efforts in bebulf of the bill when he was in Washington before, and Mr. Tyrrell, with a good-natured laugh, remarked that if the Senator were not out here now the importers would not have this opportunity of talking with him on the subject. The importers were certainly very much obliged to him for the friendly interest he had taken in the bill, and hoped he would renow his previous efforts on his return. Senator Logan said he should certainly do so. After some further tulk of a similar nature, and a shrewd suggestion from one of the gen- tlemen that the ‘Ireasury Department amend- ment referred to was presumably invented in the hope that it would drag the matter along and kill the bill for this session, it was decide: that the only thing to be done was to send Mr. Wilson to Washington, as suggested, and that Senator Logun would codperate with the other friends of the bill to the fullextent of his power on his return to Washington. Mr, Walson will probably leave for Washington Monday night. <<< DREDGING RINGS! To the Taxpayers of Chicago: Much has been said through the papers about “Dredg- ing Rings,” all of which evidently emanates from the fruitful brain of our worthy Com- missioner of ‘‘ Public Works.” Te who styles himself the “ Watchdog of the Treas- ury,” who for personal aggrandizement and the hope of continuing in office has made more false statements about ‘saving the people’s money” than any person who has ever occupied any official position in Chicago during my twenty-seven years’ residence here,—he does all this, I repeat, to tickle the fancy of the Commune leaders and chronic tax-fighters, thereby hoping to retain for himself a lucrative eflicial position. He states, among other things, that Judge Jfarlan in rendering a de- cision refers to collusions among dredging contractors and enormous prices paid by corporations, ete., ete. In this particular I was the plaintiff, and can speak to the point. The facts are as follows: During the season of 1875, when prices for dredging and dock- building were 3) to 40 per cent higher than all the profit made by nro & is With four dredges, cightdump-scows, five pile-drivers, three tugs, and all the perunernal thereunto belonging, as shown y their books, was $14,603, which amount my experience dearly gained satisfies me was not enough to_pay for depreciation of property in use. Now, to further show the enormous profits of ‘ dredging rings,” I will say to the taxpayers whom this “ wateh-dog” wishes to save from* being robbed by con- tractors, that the Chicago Dredging and Dock Colupan y have never been able to make an; dividend upon actual capital Invested—and, as I believe, cheaply and economically man- aged—since its ormanization. Believing that Thave as much interest in defending taxpay- ers of Chicago as our worthy Commissioner, Imake this statement: that if the city buys dredges and scows, and attempts to do its own work of dredging, it will cost the eity 50 per cent more than if Jet by contract. And further, if the city wishes to purchase, it can buy our entire “plant” at actual cost to our Company, or upon valuation by any competent, disinterested parties, ‘This gteat and goad man is not satisfied in abus- ing contractors alone, but upon all oppor- tune occasions speaks with much disrespect of lis predecessors in office.

Its last crowning victory was at the Interna- tional Exhibition at Melbourne, Australia, where nearly all the leading European and American piano manufacturers were repre- sented in the exhibits. As usual, the Chick- ering carried off the highest honors, and its supremacy is now acknowledged wherever civilization has penetrated. By the way, we notice that Messrs. Pelton, Pomeroy & Cross. the Western agents for the Chickering pianos, have just received one of the finest speci mens of theart of piano-making ever brought to Chicago. It is of course a Chickering u right, in massive, solid ebony case, beauti- wy carved and inlaid, and is valued at Gladstone’s trousers bag at the knees. This is all the information the London para~ graph contains, but it is true, you can just et money that his coat “hikes* up behind and “dukes” down at the corners, That kind of a coat always goes with “ those sort” of a trousers. By all odds the busiest place on the West Side last week was Horner’s Vienna milli- nery store, 316 West Madison street. Choice siyles, moderate prices, and fair dealing are always sure to win. The instinct_of reptiles is not to be de- pended on. The angle-worm never comes near the surface of the earth until the very time of the year when the fish begin to bite, and the boys’ side of the Sunday-schoo! be- gins to assume the populous aspect of the great desert. Something that will prove a great conven- fence to business-men is the opening of a splendid café at 92 La Salle street by Messrs. Isham & Sercomb, The place has been hand- somely fitted up, and the superb bill of fare includes all kinds of cereals and cold meats. When a man sees a red spot developing on his toes, he shudders and says, in a horrified whisper, “Corns!” And, when his neighbors see a red spot develop on his nose, they smile and go on with the coniugation, whis- pering to each other, * Corned!” K.G.C.: You were Wronely informed as to who did the splendid job of painting and enciling on the Doane’ Block, corner Wa- ash_avenne and Lake street. It was exe- euted by the wel!-known contractors, O’Brien Bros., 367 State street. A West Point Professor solemnly declares that a cadet will not lie, under any circum- stances. Now, if we could only find some- body to prove that much forthe witness ——? Don’t fail to visit Weidman’s New York dairy, lunch-room, and ice-cream parlors at 19 and 21 South Clark street, and see the beau- tiful Baxter engine churning buttermilk in a glass churn in the window. “What about the electric light?” asks a neighboring journal. Nothing, we believe. There used to be some “glass globes about it, but we understand they are all “busted”? by this time. , ‘The Chicago vapor, stove; no dirt, smoke, wick, or chimneys; does all the work of the family; expense 34 *to‘l gent. an hour; safe ands a household blessing; four sizes. t 311 State street. Yes, Melancthon, you are correct. Base- ball is the oldest recreation on record. It was in Adam’s inning that we all went out. Teissler & Junge, 349 State street, whose celebrated Vienna and ‘milk bread have at- tained such an enviable reputation, have been compelled to enlarge their salesroom in order to accommodate their enormous trade. “ Steam and horse railways,” moralizes an exchange, ‘“ compel 100,000 men in thiscoun- labor on Sunda Yes, that is all very well, but what have the steam and horse railways to do with the 300,000 men in, this country who go fishing ry Sunday? [n your anxiety to hold the railroads to a strict responsibility, don’t let the Sabbath-breaking fish escape, The popularity of Skinner’s restaurant and sainple-room, 47 State street, is shown by the erowds who daily throng the. place to par- take ef thesumptuous repast which that genial gentleman always provides for his patrons, Some of the striped stockings this spring are made with one continuous spiral stripe, so that when the wearer stalks across a mud- dy street, the spectacle creates, in the minds of the spectators, tue impression of a pair of twin augers morticing the crosswalk. Lovers of art are invited to inspect the new etchings, engravings, and photoxravuras just received at Thurber’s Art Gallery, 210 Wa- bash avenue, - Col. Tom Scott, who retires from the Pres- idency of the Pennsylvania Kailroad a man of immense wealth, went to housekeeping in 1847 on $50 a month. We call the attention of the public to the nobby style of garments now making up at Roche & Neil’s new tailoring establishment, 81 Dearborn street. The fashionable pose at the photographer’s, affected by the London beauties, is leaning against the jam of a kitchen door, feeding chickens, The future of Chicago can be seen in the happy expressions of the baby photographs at Joshua Smith’s studio, 206 North Clark street. . A young man who has recently taken a wife says he didn’t tind it half so hard to get niarried as he did to get furniture. The June monthlies—Harper’s, Atlantic, Young Ladies’ Journal, Demorest, and Mag- azine of Art—can be found at Smith’s cheap book and news store, 122 Dearborn street. A professor of French in an Albany school recently asked a pupil what was the gender of academy. The unusually bright pupil responded that it depended on-whether itwas a mile or female academy. Hiram Brush, 272 East Madison street, will furnish a complete outfit for housekeeping at the lowest prices on easy payments. Heil’s Hollow is the name of a place in Ne- vada where Col, Ingersoll has been invited to deliver a lecture. Ninety per cent saved in heat and expense by using Seavey & Co.’s vapor stoves, No. 49 State street. _A couple of plumbers are talking of buying ‘Niagara Falls this summer and presenting it to the Government. It is understood to be a sort of a bribe offered the signal service. Americans are the most inventive race on the globe, and it seems singular that_no plan for making flies stay in. bed until the entire Ronsehold is up has yet been patented. e Emperor of China writes spring poetry; and a little of it on atea-box goes a good way. ee G. P, RANDALL, architect, and in business in Chicago -the last twenty-four years, has removed to Room 1, 8 Dearborn street, where he will beglad to re- ceive former clients and as many ‘new ones as are willing to extend to him their patronage, and where he will attend to the duties of an archi- tect with the fidelity and vigor of former years, Friends will take due notice and govern them- selves accordingly. $$$ —_—— HAWLEY’S FLOOR-WARMING AND VENTILATION. Various of our city architects and builders, as well as others, have expressed the fear that by putting the warm air from a furnace or steam coil under the floors of buildings the timbers and floor boards would be unduly warped, sunken, or possibly semi-charred, so as to endanger the building. All such parties, and any interested in the subject of scientifically warming buildings, 1 are invited to visit my old bome, 1710 (now un- dergoing repairs) Fortieth strect, just east of Drexel boulevard, and examine the floor of the muin story, which has been warmed on this plan for five years. Many havo looked at it. and pro- nouneed it less curled and sunken and in better order than the floor of an ordinary room heated in the old way. We challenge the world to hon- est criticisms. B. R.
