BUT TWO SPANS ONLY OF THE IRON SUPERSTRUCTURE HAVE BEEN BUILT, ‘The wind was blowing down thertverthis morn- ing at the rate of 25 knots an hour when a Stan Teporter crossed the aqueduct bridge to see how nearly faished was the new bridge, which, accord- ing to the terms of the contract, was to have been completed to-day, under the penalty of a forfeit of 3355 per cent of the contract price. The contract ‘Was awarded to the Mt, Vernon Bridge Co., of Mt, ‘Vernon Ohio, on the 21st of March, 1887. Since the Sran's last report of the progress of the work upon the bridge, about a month ago, very little has been accomplished in the construction of the tron su- perstructure. ‘The masonry during that time has n pushed, but there yet remains to be done the leveling of the second south pler and the building of about 15 feet of stone upon the first south pler, ‘nd the putting in position of the coping upon thé abutments, all of which work it is thought will be completed in a few weeks. ‘rhereis a sufficient ‘amount of iron on hand for the erection of three or four spans of the bridge, but the failure to ship first the pleces to be first used necessitated a de- lay of the work. However, two spans have been erected. An extension of Lime has been requested by the contractors, It 1s thought that the original contract of $80,000 will be suiticient to carry the work a ee ‘The Seized British Sealers, WHY THE ATTORNRY-GENERAL'S ONDER WAS NOT OBKYRD—IT WAS CONSIDERED TO BE A FRAUDULENT DISPATCH—THE CORRESPONDENCE. ‘The corespondence between the Department of Justice and its officers in Alaska, in regard to the Telease of the British vessels setzed during the Summer of 1886, for the alleged violation of the Seal-fishery laws, has been made public.

WONDERFUL GROWTH. ‘What Gev, Church says of it. STATEMENTS FROM HIS ANNUAL REFORT—WHAT EE SAYS OF THE PROFOSED DIVISION OF THE TERRITORY. Louis M. Church, the governor of the Territory of Dakota, in his annual report to the Secretary of the Interior upon the condition of affairs in the Territory during the past year, states that “the ‘Territory has had another year of wonderful growth in population and wealth. The reports from all sections tell of a decided increase of imm!- gration as compared with the same date of last year, and that therush of newcomers has kept Well up to the average of previous seasons. A’ matter of course the localities along tho line of the Tailway extensions and the dristricts having large areas of the public domain subject to entry under the homestead and pre-emption laws are recelv- ing the greatest number of settlers.” yee acres of land ren 1,586, acres were acquired cash’ entry, and 2,387 acres by land scrip. ‘There has been 4 LARGE DOMIGRATION uring the year to the Deadwood, Devil's Lake and Bismarck districts,¢where, the report states, much of the public land remains unsurveyed. The area of unsurveyed lands taken up but not filed on during the year is estimated ‘be about 200,000 acres, while the sale of lands to settlers by the Northern Pacific Railroad and by private owners Gaone the same Period is estimated to be about 400,000 acres. ‘The governor estimates that the ‘od total of lands newly filed on and purchased y immigrants for settlement for the year closely Stir ake Sarma areata nae ‘four tes greater than Rhode Island, about three times that of Delaware, or nearly that contained within the boundaries ‘of the State of Connecti- cut.” ‘The vacant area now open to settlement 1s stated to contain 23,811,445 acres. THE GAIN IN POPULATION. The population of Dakota 1s given as 568,477, & gain in the population during the year of 68,477. ‘The governor states that the Large proportion of ‘the foreign 1 ts are Canadians, and that the vast numbers which have crossed the inter- ational boundary line “have fairly startled that Country, and the matter of loss of population ‘uh bh ‘ton to Dakota has become a sub- feet ‘of inquiry by the provincial it.” whe total assessment of rty in the Territory for the past year was $157,084,305, an Increase of 20 per cent over 1886. “The' total bonded indebted- ‘ness Of the Territory is given as $1,006,000. The mileage of railroads constructed during the past ear Is stated to be 717, and the total now Eins inments toe pags 3 Cm. gress of the Dawes Sioux DILL which sims to re luce the size of the Sioux reservation, and the ap- Potntment of at least two additional judges. ‘The Feport states that on the first Monday of Novem- Der the people will vote on the QUESTION OF DIVISION OF THE TERRITORY, and the report adds that deep interest is taken in the question of division and admission, “and, whether admitted as one or two States, there are many reasons why the people should not be longer deprived of the right to manage their own affairs.” ‘The governor suggests that while tbe allen land law by the last Congress was of benefit to ‘the Territory it might be modified so as to enable capitalists or moneyed corporations to loan money in the Territory. ‘The Estimates for Street Improvements, ‘THR COMMISSIONERS INFORM MR. LARNER THAT THE ONLY OFFICIAL OOPY OF THESE ESTIMATES Has N SENT TO THR TREASURY DEPARTMENT. ‘The District Commissioners have sent the fol- lowing letter to Mr. Noble D. Larner, of the Citi- zens’ Committee of One Hundred: “Sir: Referring to your communication of the ‘7th instant, to which you call attention in yours of the 19th, asking for an oMctal copy of the Com- missioners’ estimates for the improvement o1 the streets and avenues for 1888-'88, I have to state Uhat the clause tn my acknowled; ent of your Jeter of the 7th, stating that it had been ‘referred to the engineer department for prompt attention,’ Was erroneous, In fact, the ation Was sub- mitted to and considered by the board, who direct. me to reply that the only official copy prepared by {he Commissioners has been forwarded to the Sec- retary ‘reasury, as required by law. “Very respectiully, W.

It will be Temembered that when the contract work was awarded by the Commissioners to Dunlap & Clark over the bid of Judd-# Detweiler, the firm of Washington printers whohavefor the past few years been the printers for the District, there was ‘some dissatisfaction on the part of the local print. era, They said that the smal! difference between the two bids would be more than offset by the delay and inconvenience which would be occas- ‘sioned by having the work done in Philadelphia. Another objection they made Was that the District Would have to pay the cost of freightage. To this the Commissioners replied that Duniap & Clark had agreed to pay these chat But it was. not generally understood that the freight would be transported by Water, as has been the case. ‘This 4s the cause of the general complaining. ‘WHAT DR, TINDALL SAYS.

BURROWS SAYS. Capt. Burrows, superintendent of streets, said ‘that while he has had no difficulty about getting his blanks in time he thinks the quality of sta- Uonery 1s inferior to that furnished in past years. COMMISSIONER WHEATLEY FIRST HEARS OF THE COMPLAINTS TO-DAY. Commissioner Wheatley stated that he knew of Ro complaints, and sent for Secretary Tindall. He askea the doctor if it was @ fact that com- ts have been made and the doctor replied in e affirmative. Mr. Wheatley then sald that the Commissioners have received no oficial noufca- Uon of Dunlap & Clark's deficiency, and he does not think it at ali serious in character. He said that the Commissioners usually give the printers two woeks’ notice When they want any work done, and if there ts anything that must be done tna hurry they give 1 to District printers. ‘The Commissioners, he said, reserved the right in sue contract with Duniap & Clark to do this wuen- ever it became necessary. Mr. Wheatley sald fur- ‘ther that this firm printed the police regulations, the schedule of hack raves, and Ue ruies govern- ing the District offices, and’ he had found no fault With them either for the time they took to do the work or its quality. COMMISSIONER WEBB HAD NOT WEARD ANT COMPLAINTS. ‘Commissioner Webb said be had not heard com- Plaints from subordinates of the inconvenience caused by the delay in getting the printing done. ‘The umount of Judd & Detweller’s bid was $5,154.50, and that of Dunlap & Clark $5,338.95.
