In a former trial this boy, Charles Richter, testified that he made out the Hauck bilis and they w ere all right. Yesterday he retracted the statement as to ir genuineness, He sald that his mother andseveral Younger children were uependent upon him: for Support, and he was obliged to testify in the for- mer trial as he did in order to to save hissituation.

By the District ap- the additional sum of $3,000; ‘which was appropri- ated, 8 more desirable m. The ty of te alte now settled upon was never disputed by fhe Commissioners, and their matter was that such a location should be upon by the people as would be suitable and ry. Some of the reasons urged against the 13% street site were that it was not in a desirable location and that there was no necessity for a school north Of the railroad tracks. But it was proven con- clusively by Inspector Entwisie that the purchase of another site was not feasible for the reason sim- ply that even if the Commissioners sold the lot on 1334 street and added $3,000 to that amount it Would not be suffictent to purchase another suit- able site.

They have aroused the wrath of Grand Master Workman Powderly, and in the Journal of United Labor be has caused a circular to be pubilshed, in which he says: nat Leer, Working for a corporation I would ave resigned long siice On account Of o regardless of whut the salary might be; and il even the slightest part of the abuse and insult was Offered me Uhat has been offered me, nay, heaped upon me, by members of the order, I would quit in dheguat Tam not working for the grumblers and fault-fnders; I am not laboring for the malicious rascals who rush into print with every grievance against the general omhcers; Tam not working for ‘the carrions who sit on the fence and never at— tack a living issue, Dut walt untii they feel thar some one else has killed thelr prey, and then pounce on its carcass only togorge selves With filth, create a stench and drive all decent birds away from thelr ill-smelling work.

IRVING BISHOP PEARS HIS WIFE 18 INSANE, AND SHE SAYS HIS MIND I UNBALANCED. Washington Irving Bishop, the mind-reader, 1s almost prostrated, says a New York dispatch, over his desertion by his wifey Mra. Bishop, as stated in yesterday's Stax, is the divorced wife of Thomas J. Loud, the banker. She met Bishop in Glasgow, and they were engaged to be married before the divorce was pronounced. ‘The lady’s maiden name was Helen Mack, and she ts the daughter of Wil- lam B, Mack, the millionaire tube manufacturer, oft Boston. Her parents gave their unreserved sanction to the marriage, which was celebrated In the Hub. After the houeymoon, the mind-reader left his wife in Boston and started to fuflll his en- gagements, On Monday last he was very low ‘consequence of a surgical operation, and his friends telegraphed to Boston for Mrs. Bishop, but received no reply. Her whereabouts could ncé be ascertained from her relatives. Two letters were eventually recelved trom Detroit, by Bishop, from ‘his wife, Which, though couched in affectionate ‘terms, the mind reader believes to have been writ- ven under restraint. On Saturday a mysterious telegram, signed “Helen,” came trom Detroit, re- questing’a meeting at Albany. Bishop sent a re- ply demanding that she should return immedi- ately to New York, and not give the world reason tosuggest that she was unfaithful to her mar- riage vows. No further communication was re- ceived from the lady.

This is the law and of course, if said ‘gum 1s to be used, {t must be expended accord- Ingly: that 1s, for the “pavement” of said New Jersey avenue and the residue on streets named in the Commissioners’ estimates, The pretense that that provison of law can be construed vo meat merely a modification of the Commissioners esti- mates seems to me visionary and frivolous, It 13 the province of the Commissioners to submit esti- mates, but Congress determines the amount and manner Of the appropriation; and this order of ‘things cannot be reversed at the discretion of the Cominissioners, Thad no agency in this provision of the law and have no personal interest in its execution, But 1f it was merely a question of expenditure-as be- tween New Jersey avenue or New Hampshire ave, T think it 1s eminently equitable and expedient. A8 compared with New Hampshire avenue, New Jersey avenue has not been fairly treated. For seven years the Commissioners had_ estimated for the replacement of the old wooden pavement thereon from M to O streets, including the fiscal year 1886-87, in which it appeared as the only rotten wood pavement ; and hhav- ing covered it over out of sight with ‘or rare: dropped it from their estimates entirely for she coming year. Under these circumstances Congress scems to have discovered that More than estimates and discretionary tures was required. ‘As long ago as December 6, 1878, this avenue was. ag one of’ the avements nearly if not quite img and us.” And two years after in their repo it appears that “the replacement of the’ worthless wooden pavements has continued to be the principal work ‘on the streets during the past year,” and that “the remaining 2% miles are included in the estimates Of work for the next fiscal year, so that by the 1st of January, 1885, It 1s expected that the last Yestige of rotten Wood will have disappeared from e streets.” But two years still later, the Commissioners again submitted uneir estimates for the fiscal year 1886-87, in which was the same old item for the “replacement of wood” on sald New Jersey avenue.
