To Telephone Subseribers and others: A due reeard for public sentiment suguested to the officers of thr National Saf Deposit Company the pro- Pret) of a public explauation of certain features of the ding Contr versy between that compacy aud the westeake and Potomac Telephope Company, but the daily expeetation of a full and fual settlement by the courts of all the points has postponed the carrying out of that purpose. Inasmuch as the denial by the court ofa rehearing, And the refusal by the Commissioners of permit to tl ‘Telepuone Company to inter its cables im the pave- ment of this company, fully dispose of all pending lewislation, it is thoug.it proper to correct any misap~ Preheusiows that may exist, especiaily among tele- Phone subseribers, ag to the’ position of the National Sale Deposit Company When the National Safe Deposit Company was en— gaged in constructing large vaults under the sidewalk Conturuous to its building on the corner of 15th street and New York avenue, to be used for storace purposes, Progress was arrested by a lare and cumbersome ‘wooden box containing telephone wires. This Dox was placed near the building ine aud rai tor about 130 feet under the sidewalk and along the entire trout Sud the 1oth strect side of the Safe Deposit Company's property. ‘The permit issued by the District Commissioners to the Safe Deposit Company, and the laws then and now in force, required the crown of the vaulia to reach within six inches of the upper suriace of the sidewalk, fd these six inches were reserved for the sidewalk It was evidently impossible to construct such » vault and pavement without a removal of the telephone wires. this the Safe Company oan in addition advised by ita ‘counsel that tts right to vaulting priv- fleges ‘was absolute and. could not be Lewfully inter- fered with by the Telephone Company, aud toat this Ficht existed fn the amo way and for the’ sum= TeascLs f the right to extend bay windows and front doorsteps beyond the buskiiug line Bestules thia, the sare Deposit oiapany could no consent that ite vaalta should be Gisturbed Trequontiy ani. whenever the ‘Telephone Cuany wintd fo tne or reve fa wire 1 reupon, and on the clevent 1.1887, the Sate Depoett Company wotttet use Fetephowe Co ny to remove ita wines, In a"awer to this notice the Teidphone Company fled ® bill iu the Equity Court, allewing that it 1 notiBed to, reinove ivo {atit apprevended that the Safe.

RIVER AND HARBOR BILL. Numerous Senate Amendments. THE TARIFF BILL IN THE HOUSE. ‘The Senate. ‘The Senate metat 11 a, m. with less than a dozen Senators present, and resumed the consid- eration of the river and harbor bil Various amendments were agreed to, among them the fol- lowing: Inserting in the item of $300,000 for the Mississippi River (from the mouth of the Illinois River to the mouth of the Ohio) the words “and the Amprovement of St. Louis Harbor.” In the Apprapriation for tie Mississippt (from the head ot the to the mouth of Lue Ohio) trom $2,~ {000,000 to $2,500,000." Inserting tteu Ot $1,100,000 for the Missouri Ruver, from its mouth to Fort Ben- ton. Increasing the appropriations for the canal at Cascades, Oregon, irom $175,000 to $300,000; for the mouth of the Columbla Kiver, Oregon, from $150,000 to £500,000; for une lower Willamette and Columbia rivers (veldw Portland, Orey.) from $80,000 to $100,000. Inserting two mew ‘sections authorizing te construction (under direction of the S-cretary of War) of practical and sufficient fishways and the establishment of harbor lines Wherever essential to the preservation and protec. tion of harbors. Iuserting a provision (in lieu of ‘one struck out) for an examination and survey of Rock Island rapids for a canal around the rapids (but making no appropriation). Also. sumilar pro- Visions in relation to other rivers, among them the East River, New York, trom Broome street to 23d street (with a view of removing a ledge of rocks). he amendment, to reduce the appropriation for redging Chincoteague Bay, rom. to $2 000 was (on tecommeddation of Ube cotialt- vee) disagreed vo, a OPPOSITION TO SHIP-CANAL SCHEMES, An amendment directing a survey for a ship- canal from La Salle, Il, to Lake Michigan, near Chicago, (160 feet wide and 14 feet deep), was op- ‘by Mr. Sherman on theground that it might lower the level of the lake, and that its principal uUllity would be to provide’ sewerage for Chicago. He aiso expressed opposition toa similar provision as to the Hennepin Canal, ‘Mr. Teller advocated both propositions as being tn the interest of trade and commerce. Mr. Dolph expressed doubts as to the practicae bility or wisdom of the lutnols River scheme, but he saw no reason why the survey should not be made. Mr. Nest sald he had ty —— stent opposed — putt cau. c thto the “ver dnd’ “harbor iil the friends of ‘the Hennepin canal wanted the appropriation made they should bring it before Congress in a separate bill, and have the mater fuiriy discussed; but the putting of such subjects into river and harbor bills would bring tue whole systein of internal improvements into scandal and dium. Mr, Sherman spoke of the magnitude of the pro- Posed ship canal, He sald that the distance trom Chicago to the mouth of the Iilinois River at La Saile was 250 miles, a greater distance than the Proposed Nicaragua canal from ocean to ocean, and the stated cost of the Nicaragua canal was $95,000,000, ‘he discussion was further continued by Sena- tors Teller, Vest, Call and Allison—Senators Teller and Allison ad¥ocacing both propositions; Mr. Fest arguing agatust the Hennepla project, but having less objection to the proposed survey of the canal from LaSaile to Chicago; Mr, Call favor ing all internal improvement. MR. ALLISON'S VIEWS. ‘Mr, Allison stated that as far back as 1864 a ship canal between the lakes and the Misstssipp! was regarded by military men and by the people as of the utmost importance. If the river and harbor bill was worth the paper on which it was written, this was the most important water-way project in it. It ran through a densely-populated region, teeming With edustries and commerce, and was Congress, he asked, to appropriate $22,000,000 for rivers and harbors, and to higgie about proposi- on which Was intended to comnect the great lake system with the Miasissipp! River, He Tegarded the two propositions as two of the most Important in the bill, and if they were to be “whistled down the ‘Wwind,” and all the little streams of the country were to be dug out and en- lorged, he would feet very little interest to “swab ‘the guns” of the bill. HE WARNED SENATORS ‘that, if they ran the bill on the mere local idea that all that was desirable was to get $5,000 for a little creek or $2,000 for a little harbor, they had mistaken the feeling and sense of the people as respected Internal “commerce. Every civilized nation, except the United states, made large ex- penaitures of public money for canals and water. Ways. France and Great Britain were hones- combed with canals, Mi. GORMAN'S AMENDMENT. Mr. Gorman favored the proposition for the sur- vey of acanal from LaSalle to Lake Michigan, but moved to strike out the words “and capable of carrying nut less than 600,000 cuble feet of water Pex mute, fowing at the rate of two tailes per our.” ‘THE CLAUSE AS PASSED. The motion was agreed to, and the amendment, $0 modified, was agreed to. It reads: “For the Purpose ot securing a continuous navigable water- Way between Lake Michigan and the Mississtppt River, having capacity and factiities adequate for Une passae of te largest Mississtppl River steam- boats and of usual vessels suitable for defense in Ume of war, the Secretary of War 1s au. thorized and’ directed to cause to be made the Proper surveys, plans, and estimates for a channel {taprovement_ ard locks and dams in the beds of the Illinois and Desplaines Rivers from La Saile to Lockport, 80 a8 to provide a navizab.e waterway, not less than 160 feet wide and not less than 14 "feet deep, and to have surveyed and located a channel fromm Lockport to Lake Michig.n at or near the city of Chicago, such channel to be suitable for the purposes aforesaid, the necessary expenses of such surveys, estimates, plans and lo- cation to be paid out of the sum herein appropri- ated for the improvement of the Iilinois River, THE HENNEPIN CANAL PROJECT. The amendment directing the Secretary of Wat to locate acanal from the Ilinols River at Henne- pin to the Mississippi River at the mouth of = River was then agreed to, after a protest by M Vest that {i Would commit the Government abso- lutely to the construction of the canal, Senators Gorman and Beck denying Uhat it did so and Mr. Alltson declining to commit himself one way or the other. ‘THE LAST AMENDMENT TO BE ACTED UPON was the insertion of a provision abolishing the ‘Missouri River Commission, Mr. Vest spoke of the utter decay of commerce on rivers and canals, there not being now a si steamboat on the Missouri River between Kansas Clty and St, Louls, ‘That was something beyond the power of Congress to prevent, because time was the great element in commerce.
