Wheatley.” It would certainly enhance the reputation of the board were it to select a less blundering spokesman.

The great lawyer, stern and dignified, was asking the court to issue a warrant for Pigott's arrest, and declaring solemnly his intention to bring to justice all who were behind Pigott and | Houston or who had been engaged in the foul | conspiracy. Whatever their actual feelings, | their lordships preserved their judicial equa- | nimity. Certain formalities had to be through with, and it was not until near! o'clock in the afternoon that the court ed on the understanding that Webster and jis clients and friends should, between that and to-morrow morning, decide upon the course } they will pursue. CHEERING PARNELL AND DAVITT. Then Parnell, Davitt, and several of their friends, escorted by a big crowd of admirers | and sympathizers, cheering frantically all the way, walked to the Bow street police court, where they made sworn informations and ob- tained a warrant which will secure Pigott’s ar- rest in any European country. save Spain, in which he may have taken refuge. It is not likely that he has gone to Paris, for his recep- tion there would not be at all cordial, and for the same reason it may be safely assumed that he has not got on board any steamer bound for America. If he has really left England he is | doubtless at the present moment in Antwerp or Rotterdam, wither of which can be speedily | and cheaply reached within a few hours. The impression is pretty general that the Times provided the funds to enable Pigott to escape.

Pigott's flight was bad enough for their case, but there is reason for believing that his further cross- examination would have resulted in revela- tions even more disastrous to the Times, and much more serious for certain high-placed in- dividuals. THE UNANSWERED CALL FOR PIGOTT. As soon as the learned commissioners took their seats Pigott was calledin the usual formal manner and the people craned forward to gaze upon the redoubtable old sinner. Pigott did not respond, and then itseemed to dawned upon the spectators that something was gaing to happen, Instantly the crowded court became as still as a mortuary chamber.

The House conferees on the District appro- priation bill carried their grievances into the House yesterday afternoon, and the result was a lengthy and animated debate on the pro- jected park in Rock Creek valley. Mr. Henderson, of Iowa, one of the conferees, advocated the establishment of a park with considerable vigor. He quoted statistics to show the park areas of other large cities, and then emphasized the fact that this city has no park. He wanted the sentiment of the House upon the matter. Mr. Hatch thought that if the gentleman would include in the bill an iment pro- viding for inclosing .

Continuing, Mr. Hemphill said: Now, is something else’I would like to say in regard to this park, It is well known that Rock creek. flows right through the District from one end to the other until it empties into the Potomae river. Along a considerable portion of Rock creek the banks have been built up with dwelle ing houses, and as a natural uence the creek has become in some parts sewer for every in the shape of refuse com- ing from those dwe Rock creck has thue become a stench in the nostrils of the people in that portion of the city. There has been pressed most urgently upon the District com- mittee a proposition to arch over Rock creek in part and to tunnel another part so as to get rid of these noxious odors coming from the creek. If we should undertake to do that work, although it would apply to only very small of Rock creek, it would according to the estimate, $600,000, and in probability by the time we had finished it the cost would be a great deal more. Now, as @ pure matter of dollar and cents, 1 submit whether it is not better to keep the banks of this creek free from dwelling-houses and dedi- cate the land to some public purpose. I do not hesitate to say that something must be done for the protection of the poeple living in the neighborhood of Rock creek, where bi have been constructed on its border. Unless something be done that whole stream will be- come the deposit of the sewerage and refuse of people living upon its banks, and that portion of the city will soon have to be abandoned or given over to people who can live in the midstef those stenches, NOW THE TIME TO BUY, Besides, Mr. Speaker, there will never be ® time when this property can be purchased as cheaply as it can be purchased to-day. The people who own the land that is expected to be purchased along Rock creek, if any be par- chased at all, are the original owners of the property; and as a member of the District com- mittee I can say that nota single one of them nor the representative of one of them has come yep degen eg to any member of committee, urging this park project upon our consideration. Although I Kine, od | the names of a number of these owners, I know but & single one; and although he bought a piece ot ag ere four or five years ago, he says: “If you want this land for a public park I will sell at a price that any gentleman in whom I have confidence will put it.” 1 think that isa fair proposition. + ag asked Congress to appropriate one cent; but he says that, on the contrary, he would prefer to hold the land that he might realize the ad- vance in price. Itis true that a part of the property along this creek has become very valuable. I know a gentleman in this city who, according to repute—I have no personal knowledge of the fact—purchased seven or eight years ago a piece of property adjacent to this creek which he could now sell for €250,000 or $300,000. If we are ever going to geta park, now is the time; it is in my opinion the only time when the people's representatives will be willing to vote the sum mecessary te secure it, f = i THE DISTRICT SUPPLIES, In addition to that, Mr. Speaker, if this park is purchased the District under the usage and the existing law will have to pay one-half of the expenses. It is proper that the people owning property alonk the line of this should pay their just proportion in view of any increased value which may arise from the dedi- cation of this land to public use. The District is in a better condition to pay its share of this money now than it will probably ever be for years tocome. There is a considerable sur- plus in the treasury of the District, amounting to several hundred thousand dollars—betweem 600,000 and $700,000, Mr. Blount—How about the debt? Mr. Hemphill—Of course there is a debt due by the District; but it is not payable, Mr. Randall—The District is in debt to the Federal government to the extent of a million dollars, on account of the expense of the work on the aqueduct, and I suggest, if there is any surplus inthe treasury, the District should devote it to paying that indebtedness, Mr. He =: ill—1 want to remind the gentle- man from msylvania that, as I understan: this aqueduct was controlled entirely by comcials of the United States, Mr. Randail—The gentleman was stating that the District has $600,000 in its treasury undis- dof. I wanted to say that I thought the est appropriation of that amount would be for the District to pay something toward the million of dollars advanced by the government on the aqueduct, which has proved an utter failure, WHERE THE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE ACQUEDUCT FRAUD RESTS. Mr. Hemphill—I think before the District pays any money on that account there ought to be instituted an investigation to see whether the government of the United States has not swindled the people of this District out of a great deal of that money. As 1 understand, there is an investigation now going on at our expense——- member —The committee has reported. Mr. Hemphill—Yes; the investigation is fin- ished, I believe, and I understa there isa very black report, so far as the government of the United States is concerned. If we have taken money of the people of this District, or at least run them into debt to the extent of » million of dollars, and if, according to the re- port made by members of this body, we bave misappropriated the money designed for the construction of that tunnel—— Mr. Randalli—That was done against the re- monstrance of the committee on appropria- tions. THE DISTRICT NOT RESPONSIBLE. Mr. Hemphill—That may be true, Yet the District is not responsible, as the gentleman willadmit. It is by the fault of officials of the United States government that this misappro- priation has happened, and it is not right to visit our sins upon the le of this District, Now, Mr. Speaker, they talk a great deal about having a “monkey show” here, and all that vort of thing, just the same kind of la we heard when this question was before House on a former occasion.
