Yesterday Dr. Townshend, the health officer, visited the place, and found that the descriptions of this place had not been overdrawn, and gave orders to disinfect the mass temporarily. He will consult with the District engineer as to permanently abating the nuisance. ‘ome of them, how. National Yellow Fever Commission. MEETING OF THE EXECUTIVE COMMITr2s.

A Card. WASHINGTON, Sept. 21, 1878. Editor Star:—The following extract from the text of a special dispatch to the Baltimore Gazette trom its Washington correspondent, appeared in that paper on the 4th inst. : “It is rumored that some of Benson’s friends have questionable claims against the govern- ment, and his hostility to guere Raynor can only be accounted for upon the ground that the solicitor (Raynor) has always turned his a against the recognition of claims of this class.” J pronounce the statements therein contain- ed, So far as it was intended to apply to me, as having no foundation in truth. And no per- son knows its untruthfulness ;better than So- leitor Raynor. I never presented a claim in my life against the ——— (except for my salary,) nor was I ever interested in any claim against the government directly or in- directly. Neither have any of my friends,so far as I know, any claims of any kind agaiust the government. Therefore Solicitor Raynor never “turned his face against the recognition of any ¢leim” in which I was in the remotest manner interested. If I am wrong, let the Solicitor speak for himself. eee S. B.

HE REFUSES 10 BE 1NS"..TED BY THE DISTRICT COMM <8]0NERS. Themes L. Hume and Gen. Peter F. Bacon, the well known ‘jxerehant grocers, and W. R. Collins, news euitor of THe STAR, const the Board of Five Commissioners up to afew Gass ago. Some weeks sinee, ty accord: ance with the action of Congress at its last session, the District Cominissionei® requested the fire board to select sites for two new engine houses and a truck house. The board did so and transmitted the result of their ac- tion to the District Commissioners. Instead of acting upon this report, no attention what- ever was paid to it and shortly afterward, the Commissioners appointed a committee, com- paned of Messrs. Coilins, of Tug Stak, and Fire Board ; Bohrer, of the board of assessors, and Dodge, District treasurer, to select sites and report them. This committee has ex- amined the sites which had been properly adyveitisea for yy the fire board, but has not yet reported its action to the Commis- sioners. AS soon asthe determination of the Commissioners became knuwa to the fire board, Mr. Thomas L. Hume promptly sent in his resignation, and at the meeting of the board on Tuesday night informed his former colleagues of his action. His etter, ich fs Said to be “mighty interestiug reading,” is brief and to the point. It sets forth his rea- sons for r ning, closing with the following sentence: “I deem the action of the Cominis: sioners an unwarranted and unmerited in- sult.” Mr. Collins, the president of the fre board, refuscd to let this letter see the light of day, or, in otuer words, “pocketed it,” not even showing enough newspaper enierprise to ublish it in his own journal. The public are, owever, informed by the vigilant Post that Mr. Hume is the only man of spirit in the fire board. Mr. Hume for the lasi four years has been recognized as one of the mosi efficient members of the fire board.—[ Post, this morn. ing. The above publication is hardly fair to the Parties most interested, in justice to whom I will make the following brief statements: The recommendations of the fire board in re- gard to the neighborhoods where the new com- anies should be located were accepted by the istrict Commissioners. The subsequent re- Port of the fire board recommending the pur- chase of certain lots was not disregarded by the District Commissioners, but was referred by them with other papers relating to the mat- ter, to the committee to “arrange for the pur- chase” (Dodge, Collins and Bohrer), none of whom cot the position. The fire board was recognized by the appointment of its president toa ee on the purchasing committee. For Mr. Hume's “pluck” and his other manly qual- ities, no one, eyen thip Post, has more admira- tion than his late collengues, who highly esteem him, and greatly regret that he should have felt compelled to tender his resignation of 2 Position where he has been so useful to the public. His letter of resignation to the Dis- trict Com, ‘iohers states no reason for his course. His letter to me, both Gen. Bacon aud myself considered private, and when I was asked fora copy of it by the Post reporter, 1 told him that f would cheerfully give it to him if he would get the written order of Mr. Huine. This I thought fair. Gen. Bacon informs n: that he calied on Mr.‘Hume next day and asked him whether he desired the publication of his letter, and that he answered, certainly not; that the letter was for the information of his colleagues. L acknowledge that I have not enough “newspaper enterprize” and never expect to have, to publish private letters with- out the consent of the writer and reesive: and will add that in the oficial positions I have held I have never allowed my “ newspaper en- terprize” to prompt me to reserve matter for THE Star which legitimately belonged to the morning papers. On the contrary, [ have been careful to avoid even the appearance of taking any unfair advantage of Taz Star's contempo raries. and in this I think the reporters of tue morning press will bear me out.

Sergeant Acton testified that Robinson struck him in the side of his head with a brick, cutting him acy aed he lost much blood from the wound. He, in return, struck him with his baton on the head. Other testi- mony was heard on both sides, aud the case was sent to the grand jury. James Bryant, colored, was arraigned on the charge of refusing te assist the officers im ar- resting Robinson. Bryant’s plea was that he was afraid of the crowd, and he did refuse to act. The court remarked that noman had a right to be a coward under such circum- stances. The law makes it the aur or every citizen to answer to the call of an officer. He imposed a fine of $5. CHARGE OF PERJURY.

Other witnesses for the prosecution testified to the gun having been pointed by defendant; but they heard nocapsnap. For the defence it was testified that Kidwell asked Mr. Wood not to allow his wife to come there and drink liquor, when Mrs. Wood kicked him and threatened to shoot him, and got a revolver, when he went to his house and et his gun, which was empty, and pointed it at her, telling her to come on with her peter The Court required Kidwell to give his personal recognance to keep the peace.
