This in the face of Ube most conclusive testimony from a large number of respectable citizens as to the lusufferable nature of the nulsance maintained by the defendants. It Is safe to say that there never has beep a nuisance case in the District courts in which the testimony was 30 direct. conclusive, and from so large a number of responsivie witnesses. As stated by District Attorney Corkhull in his letter to the Dis- trict Commissioners, (given elsewhere,) the plea put Im on behalf of the defendants was that they are contractors under the con- trol of the Commisstoners, and are occupying thetr present location by authority of the Com- * missioners. eceupted by Cranford & Co. ts public ground, ‘nd they have used it for some eight years without the payment of any rent whatever. ‘This fact explains why they hold on so te- naciously to thts locality, and insist upon matn- taining thls outrageous nuisance within a stone's throw of Peansylvania avenue, despite the protests of the citizens in the matn rest dence and business portion of the city. and in violation of their repeated promises to move at definite times named. The tact that they refuse to follow the honorable example of Davis & Co., (who had a similar establish- ment at another point on B street), in pleading guilty to the charge, and closing up business, and that they have fought every attempt to force them to move, shows that they mean to id the fort in their squatter, rent-free arters. In this condition of affairs, the District Commissioners will violate their duty to the public, if they do not at once take steps to put it out of the power of these insolent paving contractors to screen themselves from | of the District j ts puntshment under the government. skirt. The republican siembers ot Congres formally resolved that they will not tak single backward step In resisting the pas the Mowgan resolution, and the democrats have determined that it will never do for them to back out. Uelans th: of the country have had enon; awhile, and would gladly rest trom any further H of this character Upon the whole, well that Congre: its ume tn aera es ona r of words. The country is prospering. All its affatra are work- z smoothly, and mischievous legislation is at the only thing that can Interfere with thls prosperity. There 1s no danger of such egisiation while a he: polliical dispute ts in progress. Upon the theory that the less legisla Uon there fs, the better for the country, the for a couple Perhaps, it is should occupy pending debate Is not without Its good. ‘The passage of the appropriation bills and of a funding i is all that Is really ; ded at the hands of thts Congress. The ap- fonment can well go over until the next Congress, and should the river and harbor bil! tail.only a few unknown streams and dry creeks will suffer. Fortunately, the people are not obliged to read the Congressionai Revord. They can go ahead with their business and ignore the little oratorfeal breeze that datly shakes the southern wing of the Capitol. congres=tc al orators supposed for a moment fervid words were not being read by timents, the debate would tnconti "creditors: and perhaps a a few per- sonal friends of its members, it is not likely that any body will feel much Interest in or sympathy for the firm of coffee dealers who suspended payment in New York the other day with HMabilities amounting to nearly a million dollars, The concern was one of a -ombination or syndicate, as it is now called, formed to control the importations of coffee into this country, and to force up the price accordingly. Some of their calculations fatled, and they falled also. In other words, they wagered their capital on an advauce in price, whereas a decline came instead, and swamped them. right.
