They consider it the duty of housekeepers to carry their baskets and boxes of garbage to..and dump the contents into the wagon. And, when they refuse todo 60, the scavenger uses lan- guage and obscenities that would disgust even un occupant of a police-station cell. Several complaints have been lodged, and others are .to follow this week. Paut Hrnscn, U1 years of age, whose parents reside at No. 479 North Franklin street, was ac- cidentally drowned in the North Bracch of the- river at the toot of Crossing street, while bath- ing.

Mr. Hanley. who. is’ superinteud- ing the stone-work, stated yesterday that an ex- periment of a very satisfactory nature bad been jiade with a process of stone-cleansing in the possession of a New York tirm. This tirm have # certain composition paste and acids with which the accumulated grime upon a stone surface is: removed very rapidly and without dumage to the stone. southern facade of the building has been cleaned partly by the old and partly by the result bei that the rest of the buliding will be cleaned by the New York firm, as their work was pronounced not only cheaper but bet- ter than the other. It is ex: that by Sep- tember the chimney stacks, thirty fect of which remain unbuilt, the portico on Randolph one ‘hich pow is only half finished, and the grani work on which has just been com~ will be completed, and a little later the menced, rotund:, which is now hy us far us the second- in story sills, will also be finished. The cleaning Will be done before this time.and It is safe to say that before October next the: exterior of. the building will be just about completed. Y THE HORRORS OF THE MOUGUE. The criminal neglect of those who arerespon- sible for the present disgraceful condition of the Morgue was illustreted by a revolting and vet touching case which occurred last weex. The revolting part isthe sbarcof the county; the touching part is the humanity of outsiders, and children at that. Eddie Smith was a homeless, fatherless and motherless waif of 14 years, who earned a tew pennies by blac boots, A a at No. o#2 State street kind-hearted “lady living gave him manya meal and manyabed. He played with her children, and was well Enown in the nelabbeshoe’ Last Wednes- day hé attempted to jump off a train of cars on the Illinois Centra)_ Railroad at the foot of Twenth-ninth strest. He slipped and wus instantly killed. The body was trans- ferred to the Norgue. Friduy his boy compun-} ions visited the place and witnessed a scene that they will remember for many along day. The littie body had been Inid out without attention, No ice had been used, and not even 2 stream of water employed. The result can be more easily imagined than described. The body was in an advanced stage of decomposition, and flies and vermin were rioting 6n the flesh displayed so cruelly. The little boys were made of softer stuif than their elders, and pro- tested without effect. Nine of them then, whose action will be remembered when goodand bad deeds are: balanced azainst each other, im- medintely started a subscription paper, and b yesterday morning had collected $31.65, wit Which thoy gave the vody of Eddie Smith a buri- alin Graceland, where $10 secured spice fora mound of green turf. Undertaker Elton con- tributed a coffin, although the remains were in such a condition that they had to be kept ina burn and the coffin actunlly made water-tight, while none of the boyish mourners could ap- roich the hearse. “Yesterday morning the ‘boys followed the remains in car- riages to the t graye with .23 much respect ‘aud loyalty to their former companion 1s though he had been the richest boy on earth in- stead. of a friendless orphan boutblack. The boys are now saving their pennies to buy a mon- ument to be placed at the head of the little grave in Graceland. ‘THE CITY-HALL. - 650 have SALOONKEEPERS. to the number of renewed their licenses.

He has agreed upan the list, but could not be persuaded to disclose anything further on the subject than. he gave out over a week ago. Tue tender of the Clark street bridge called to see Mr. Waller yesterdny to explain the acci- dent of the day before by which his assistant, William Johnson, wasinjured. According to his story the tug-boat was to blame, and he intends to urge Johnson to bring suit against its owner for damages. Comrbaints haye been, numerous recently about the filty coudition of South Water street, and yesterday the Mayor looked over the ground and offered tohave the dirt removed twice x week if the business men there would bave it piled up. Some such arrangement will, no doubt, be entered into. “THE Mayor says be will pay no attention to the action of the Committee on Health and County Relations, in reference to the pumping- works, but he will order their erection as soon as a site to erect them on hus been secured and the necessary arrangements have been made with the Canal Commissioners. CompLAINT is made that the breweries: of d Keeley, in the vicinity of the foot of seventh treet, are fouling the water in the inside of -the breakwater, and Dr. De Wolf is secking 2 remedy.- The Twenty-tifth Street trouble bas ‘not yet been settled to his Jiking, and be is threatening to complain to the Grand Jury against the Ilincis Central Railroud Company, which is charged with maintaining the nuisance. ComMISsIONER WALLER has about concluded the negotiations which have been pending for some Weeks with reference to dred, the river, and to-morrow evening will send 2 com- munication to the Coundil on the subject. He is mum us to what has heen accomplished, but itis thought that he bas abandoned the idea of pur- chezing dredges, and will demonstrate, in letting the contract for the work, that the dredging can Be dont for much less than has been heretotore paid. = THE STATE-STREET IMPROVEMENT. Mr. E. J. Harkness, of the Specin!- Assessment Department, says that some mistak made in the papers in reference to the widening of State street. Up to dute 2165,052 has been eoliccted for the improvement, of which 3123,- 966 isin the form of vouchersigsued on accountof damages awarded in the. condemnation pro- ceedings, and the balance ($41.08) is in cash. The amounts or $8,600 on thé block between Twelfth and Thirteenth streets, and $13,000 between ‘Thirteenth and Fourteenth streets, ho explains are due to owners of property in those blocks, and have no reference to the cost of the work; while the balance has been paid in vouchers, and forms a part of the $123,806. The contracts for moving the buildings, he.says, are made by the owners, with which the city has nothing to do, sand he announees that the city is ready to pay all balances due for dumagesin cash as far south as. Eighteenth street, instead of ‘Twentieth, which will require about $40,000. The collections, he sxys, are be- ing made rapidly, and the indications are that enough mouey will be on hand to puy balances due as far as Twenty-eecond strect as fast xg the buildings can be removed. He thinks that the street will be widened to the last-named street by Aug. 15,and to Thirty-tirst street bo- fore the close of the seacon. THE COUNTY-BUILDING.

There were no defects discovered that cannot be readily rectified, and the insinuation that there was anything wrong about the entire work was un- eailed for.

A SEWING-MACHINE COMPANY WOHSTED. ‘The habeus corpus case of Louis Korter was heard yesterday morning by Judge Moran. From the testimony, which was very prolitic, it seemed that some months ago Korter went to- the office of the Wheeler &4Vilson Sewing-Mn- chine Company toinquire the price of machines. .An agent wns scon atterwird sent up to his nouse, in his absence, and an ngreement madein the usual way with Mre. Korter to sell her a ma- chine for $#, her husband's old machine being taken for $0 as a first payinent, A lease in the usual blind form, which the Supreme Court hus decided is a bill of sule, was signed by her and a recvipt given by theCompany, The lease, ‘or contract, provided that in case of failure to Inouthly installnents the Company should hive the right to retuke possession of the machine. Korter having failed to make all is payments, the Company sued him, and recovered two judgments for #15 cach. z Korter then got incensed, and prepared a cir- eulur setting forth his wrongs, which be was just about to sprinkle over the city when the Com- pany heard ofthe scheme and obtained an in- junction aginst kim. He then prepared anew batch of circu whieh were distributed on Madison street last week, Wentworth, the agent of the Company, then had Korter urrested ou a crimmal charge of libel, and be was held to the Criminal Court. He thereupon filed » petition for babes corpus, claiming the mitti-~ ius wns bad, and also that he had not been guilty of any libel, but had only ed justifinble means to warn the community of 2 fraud. The Judge heid that Korter ought to be charged, as by an act of the Legisiature, in cordunce with the Constitution, Korter hnd she- right to establish the truth of the alleged libel, and the publication of his circuige was, under the circamstances, for a justifiable end. The contract in question had on its face the eur- marks of outlined fraud. It was A case sewing-michine — was lensed to persons confessedly in impe- cunious circumstances, und = the Compuny had not only retained Korter's old machine, but had also en the new one, thereby depriving himof both. There was no evidence showing that Korter was actuated by sny improper mo- tive in issuing the circular. By the contract's strict wording, even ufter a purchaser hid paid the full amount exiled for in too “lease,” the Company still bud the right to tnke possession ef tha machine. ‘There was nothing in the con- tract providing that the machine shouldever be- come the property of the persun making the inonthly payments.

A TERRIBLE MORTALITY AMONG WATCHES. The jewelers have been noticing during the past few days what they are very much inclined tocallan epidemic in the breaking! of main- springs in all sorts of watches, littié and big, ehenp and costly, home-made and imported. Hearing of the ravages among watch-owners, for which the epidgmic was undoubtedly respon- sible, a reporter yesterday called upon Mr. Potter, in the I'rinuNe Building, and asked him how he accounted for this t iain important department of the average “ticker.” “Pbhis epidemic among mainsprings,” tho gentleman replied, “is “no new thing, and the subject isone which has been di: i and again in the various borological There ure several theories as to the eause for it, and the one which js most generally accepted is this: thatit is on account of sudden electrical changes in the atmosphere. Our own ol tions are that the wenther has a gz with it. Sudden changes of temperature, in my opinion, have more to do with it, in fact, than any thing else, and » chanee from cold to hot is fol- lowed by a greater amount of breaking than a change from hot to cold.” “Is this peculiarity confined to any one class of watches?” “No, it's true of all sorts. It is s0 common at times that you can henr the springs snap in the watches on the repniring rack. Why, dur- ing the past two dars we've tuken in at least twenty-tive watches with broken mainsprings. Another peculiarity xbout the thing is that the breaking doesn't occur in the springs that throw up the lid of the cxse. One would naturally suppose that, if sudden changes of tem- eriture broke the mainsprings, they would e liable to. break, all kinds of "springs.
