Mr. Cotton said that in report- ing this bill the committee had followed the or- ders of the House. There was a total indebted- ness of the school fund of $158,379, bat the com- mittee hed reported @ bill providing for the teachers only. Mr. G, F. Hoar spoke in favor of the bill as so Mr. Frye, who said there are from lve to fourteen thousand government clerks, | hose children attend the public schools, and id any taxes. There are mewbers ot Con, who send their children to the public schools of the District who have paid | not a dollar for the schools. Should the people of the District, they are puor, pay all the expenses, and the government, which owns | all this property and brings all these people here, pay nothing? He knew aboat the schools of the District, and sent his cbild to them. | When he came here he examined them to see if | it was desirable to send his little girl, and he could say that there are few cities in the United States where the schools or teachers are supe- rior to these in Franklin building, where his child goes. Three of the teachers there are from the Normal school in his own state, and they come to him often for advice. The teachers had not a dollar ad not been paid for many months. How much longer must this go on? The District has no money, and cannot to this advance if it did no more. i Messrs. Willard and Speer opposed the bill as establishing @ bad precedent. Mr. Cox also op posed it. Mr. Eldridge argued that there is a manifest equity in Congress paying mene tor the sopport of the schools. ie referred the fact that Congressmen and clerks send th children to the schools, and when the people here do not own more than one-half of the prop- erty taxed it ls Just that Congress should aid them. If he had hi« choice he would not provide that the money should be returned, but he would give it as a free gift. Mr. Pelham advocated the bill, but would like to have @ greater amount appropriaced, and he would move to appropriate $30,000. That would hot do more than pay the expenses of the schools for a year. Mr. O’Brien believed the bill should pass as a measure of humanity and justice to save these teachers from starvation. Mr. Pelham’s amendment was rejected. Mr. Merriam offered an amendment autbor- izing the District authorities to levy a tax on personal property equal to the gmount proposed to be appropriated by this bill, the same to be paid into the Treasury of the United States. ‘The amendment was adopted. The committee then rose. and the several bills were reported to the House. The House passed the bill giving the approval and sanc- tion of Congress to the route and termini of the ANACOBTIA AND POTOMAC RIVSR RAILROAD nd to regulate its construction. The bill as assed provides that Congress give its approval and sanction to the construction, operation, and maintenance of a street railroad by the Anacostia and Potomac River Railroad com- pany, a company incorporated under the act of | Congress of May 5th, 1578, over the following route: Commencing for the easterp terminus of said road, at or near the northern end of the navy-yard bridge, on Ith streeteast; along Lith street east to M street south; to 3d street east, to N street south; to Water strost; to 12th street west; to Obio avenue; to Lith street west; thence along lth street west tersection of Pennsylvania avenue and said 1ith street west; and also on M street south irom Jd street east to Water street, and on lith street west from Water street to the intersection of 12h and B streets southwest; conforming to the grades of said streeta and avenues as the | same now are, or may hereafter be, established by law: Provided, That said company shall construct at least a single-track road over s4id rbute, and open the same to travel. within six- teen months after the approval of this act: And provided further, That wherever the toregoing route shall coincide with the route of any other duly-invorporated railroad company, or con. nect portions of such route, but one sct of tracks shaii be used,and each company using the tracks shall contribute equitably to the expense of laying and maintainmg them; the amount to be contributed to be ascertained. when the companies disagree, by the Supreme Court of he District of Columbia, upon application of company interested, and on notice to aud hearing of the parties interested. i Sec. 2. That in the manner of laying its tracks, and paving the same, this bp gee shali be under the control of the Board of Public Works for the District of Columbia; and it shall pave its track, and the spaces between them, and for the space of two feet beyond the ov'er ling thereof, and keep the same in good order, with- out expense to the United States or the District | of Columbia; and tbat said pavement shall be ‘@ prescribed by the said Board of Public Works; and the rate of fare charged and received by said company shall not exceed five cents a pas- Senger tor any distance between the termini of | grain to-day.

To-day in the House. MR. HALE’S PLEA FOR JUSTICE POR THE DIS- TRICT. The House, in Committee of the Whole yes- terday, struck out the enacting clause of the bill authorizing the construction of an iron bridge across the Eastern branch, near the Anacostia bridge, but that did not necessarily | defeat the bill; and this morning, District mat- ters coming up as unfinished bu#ness, Mr. Hale took the floor, and explained the necessity for the passage of the bill. He had not tne time, nor was he prepared to speak on the relations of the | gor mig to.the District of Columb! That had been ably done by the di ‘te from the District, and he wished évery member of Congress would read it. It contains much information, all of which should be pos. — by members of the Hi retted louse. He @ disposition which he noticed in the House to avoid doing anything which | would result ip bene! to the District. Again, the action of the House in Committee of the Whole yesterday was disrespectful, it seemed to him, to the Committee of the Dis- trict of Columbia to which the matter had been | reterred for investigation and report. He arguea only that asthe governmentowns nearly | one-half the real estate in the District it | aught to be ible for ite share of the expenses for improvementa, As to the necessity for a bridge across the Eastern Branch and the justice the government building it there could be no doubt, and he hoped would not sustain the action of the Committee of the Whole yesterday.

The pill states that he is a resident of the District, en broker, and brings suitin hey i and also ent for certain parties; that Blumenberg has ab- sconded from the District and departed for parts upknown; that the Blamenbergs, Mandel, Frank | and other parties were partners‘until February | 20, doing business as lenders of money on col- | Jateral secarity; that they procured from plain- tiff sums of money amounting to $1,766.56, aud delivered to him several promissory notes of parties for whom he procured loans, which amounted to £5.00879, bearing interest at the ‘ate nominally of ten per cent., but which were | in reality discounted by & Co. at the rate of 18 per cent. per annnm; that the parties for whom complainant negotiated said loans dep3:- ited at the time of the notes certificates of in. | debtedness signed by the auditor of the Board of Public Worgs amounting to $13,474.72; that the defendants, B. & Oo., long before the ma. turity of the notes, immediately transferred tha securities to parties unknown at about one-halt their face value and appropriated the proseeds. He charges that the business was established tor the express purpose of defrauding. He states that he does not know to whom the notes were [aya and that he fears they have been paxe! innocent purchasers; and charges that the certificates are not negotiable paper prot-cted in the bands of innocent holders for value, bat is infurmed that itis the enstom of the Board of Public Works to pay the certificates to those presenting them; and that the Board refuses to issue duplicates for the certificates; and states that he is ready and willing to pay the amoant of loss and to fully satisfy the notes on the re- turn and surrender of the certificates. He prays that B. & Co. may be enjoined from negotiating said notes and from receiving payment for the certificates, and the board enjoined from pay- ing them; that an account may be stated; that the notes be delivered to him to be canceled, and such certificates be delivered to him upoi the amounts being paid, and that duplicates be issued to him or the parties.

Phillips, in another column, were as valuabic as they re are, and at the price he holds them, they would no doubt be purchased as fast as he could execute deeds for them. We predict that within five years these farms, located on the ‘North Arlington Heights,” will be valued at three times the price they are now being sold at by Mr. Phillips, and he is selling them on long time and on easy terms. e EXTENSIV8 SALe or SUnUgpAN Property.

Last evening I eee and lady hailed car No. 11, of the Metropolitan railroad going west. and inquired if it was going to Georgetown’ The reply was no; that the next car, No. 33, was the last car for Georgetown. After wait. ing about twenty minutes No. 38 came up and the parties went in and paid their fare, but when they arrived at I7th street the conductor said he did not go to Georgetown, and they were compelled to resort to the avenue lins to get home. Wonld it not be well for the proprie- tors of the line to let the public know when these cars run and when they stop running? X.
