Hewitt, Cooper and Others In- vest Heavily in the South. Sr. Lovts, March 25.—Information comes from Florence, Ala., that a controlling interest in the Tennessee Coal, Iron, and Rail- way company has been sold to Messrs, Abram 5S. Hewitt, Edward Cooper, Mr. Murphy and others, of New York city. The Tennessee coal, iron and railway company is the largest and wealthiest corporation doing business in the south, being a consoli- dation of the Pratt coal and | coke company, the Coalburg Coal and Railroad com- pany, and one or two other important com- panies. They own millions of acres of coal and iron lands besides the famous Pratt {and Coalburg mines near Birmingham; also several important branches and mineral rail- roads in Alabama and Tennessee, besides large | blocks of stock of several of the prin- cipal furnaces in the two states. A private telegram vouches for the correct- ness of this information, while Mr. Nat. Baxter, jr., of Nashville, president of the | company, is reported as disclaiming all knowl- edge of such a transaction. However, he does not positively state that the transaction has not | been made. “It is said the new company will | meet and elect an entirely new board of direct- ors on the Ist of April. —_ TWELVE BURIED.

Several mills report slight gains in tho number of looms running. and the total number in operation to-day given as 4,000. Several mills which had s up ready to start abandoned the attempt on account of the small number which come in, and others which did start shut down during the morning for asimilar reason, The strikers held a big mass-meeting on the park this morning at which 5,00¢ were present. They voted unani- mously to continue the strike, A WEAVER ASSUALTED, Annie Lancaster, a weaver employed in the Pocassett mill, was assaulted on South Union street this morning as she was going home. An unknown man, supposed to be a striker, hurled a brick at the woman, knocking her senseless. He then escaped down an alley and has not been captured. The woman was taken to her home and is reported to be comfortable. —_ ONLY A TRAFFIC AGREEMENT. The Wiconsin Central Not to be Con- solidated with Northern Pacific. New York, March 25.—The reports of a lease or consolidation of the Wisconsin Cen- tral by the Northern Pacific, are denied by the ofticials of both companies. It is officially stated. however, that a traffic agreement be- tween the two companies will be consummated at the special meeting of Northern Pacific di- rectors on Wednesday. The Wisconsin Central company is absolutely controlled by C. L. Col- by. Colgate Hoyt and E. H. Abbot, the stock certificates not carrying voting power, and the three gentlemen nained have been directors of the Northern Pacitic road since 1887, when went in with Henry Villard. Since that the Wisconsin Central has worked as a close connection of the Northern Pacific and understood that a traffic agree- mately be made, ultin ment would A STONE-SHOWER IN BROADWAY. An Electric Subway near the Fifth Avenue Hotel Blown Up. New York, March 25.—At about 11:45 this morning a loud report startled the crowd of passers-by at the junction of Sthavenue, Broad- way, and 23d street. A terrible explosion had taken place. A large portion of the sidewalk on 23d street just off the junction and on the side of the street next to the Fifth avenue hotel, was blown high up into the air. Showers of stones fell on the passers-by. but fortunately no one was seriously injured. The windows of the store on the corner under the Fifth avenue hotel were shattered. A BIG HOLE IN THE SIDEWALK. There is a huge hole in the sidewalk, next to the hotel, beginning at a point about 10 feet from the corner on 23d street. At first it was thought that the boiler in the Fifth avenue hotel had exploded, but later it was discovered that the explosion was due to an electric sub- way. ircular Saw. Wm. Driver, the mill of J.

The White House Redolent with Their Fragrance To-day. BUT FEW OFFICE-SEEKERS ON HAND AXD NO PUBLIC RECEPTION—SEVERAL SENAPORS IN- TERVIEW THE PRESIDENT, PRESUMABLY ABOUT APPOINTMENTS—JUSTICE MATTHEWS’ FUNERAL. Sweet violets! Numerous and odorous! The White House was full of them this morning and their fragrance overpowered the bouquet of rapidly expiring cigars,and even competed with the more powerfully aromatic smoke of the cigarettes which several visitors brought with them, The little bluish-purple flowers were worn by ninety out of every hundred of the people who came either to see the President or to look at what was visible of the interior of the mansion. The atmosphere was as full of the scent of violets as the White House was empty of office-seekers. Between the main entrance and the east room there wasasteady flow of travel, for hundreds of visitors thought to shake the Pres- ident’s hand, forgetful of the fact that Justice | Matthews’ funeral would take the President | away just at the reception hour, but the traflic | up the stair -y light, ‘for Monday is the President's “off” day. SECRETARY WINDOM WAS THE PREMIER CALLER, and after a little while he gave way to Secre- tary Blaine, who monopolized the President's attention for fully an hour, and then went away in the rain with Senator Plumb, looking as though he was very much puzzled over some- | thing. Senator Hoar talked to the President for a few minutes and introduced the Hon. | Charles Noyes, ex-speaker of the Massachusetts | house of representatives, who wants to be in- | terstate commerce commissioner. Senator Teller was also admitted,and not far behind him was John ew, with whom was ex-Representative Pierce, a gentleman who avowed himself an interesting novelty—a Hoosier who wanted no office. Senators Spooner and Paddock both went up, the latter declaring that Nebraska did not ex- pe et anything, but was trying hard to get all it a ‘TAREE DISTRICT MEN. But three persons interested in District af- fairs were visible during the day. M. M. Parker, E. Kurtz Johnson and Father Donnelly. The first two saw Secretary Halford and said noth- ing to anyone else; the last one also saw Mr. Halford, but he publicly acknowledged that he- was moving in the interest of N. H. Shea for District Commissioner. ‘THE MEMBERS OF THE CABINET ARRIVE. Shortly after 12:30 members of the cabinet commenced to arrive. They had agreed to meet at the White House and from there to go to the Matthews funeral, Secretary Rusk was the first, followed closely by Secretary Noble and Attorney neral Miller, Mr. Noble trot- ing upstairs with the agility of a boy. No less active and close behind was Postmaster-Gen- eral Wanamake: Even Secretary Windom would not walk. At 12:55 the party left for the funeral. Sec- retary Halford led the way, followed by the President and Mrs. Blaine, Secretary Blaine and Mrs. McKee, Secretary Windom and Mrs. Russell Harrison, Attorney-General Miller and Secretary Noble, Secretary Rusk and Postmas- ter-Genéral Wanamaker, Secretary Proctor and Admiral Porter (the latter representing the Navy department, Secretary Tracy being out of town), while Mr. Russell Harrison brought up the rear. Mrs, Harrison's cold has almost dis- appeared, but she did not think it wise to ran any risks on a damp day. THE INTERSTATE COMMERCE COMMISSIONERSHIP, ‘There is every reason for believing that the rumor of Gen, James H. Wilson's appointment as interstate commerce commissioner, vice Walker, resigned, is correct. The nomination will probably go in_ to-mo’row, although the Massachusetts candidate, Charles Noyes, will do his best to have his name take the place of Gen, Wilson’s, FOR CIVIL-SERVICE COMMISSIONER. So far there has been no struggle for place on the civil-service commission, but it may be that one candidate will bring out another. Gov. Sherman, if Illinois, is in the field for one of the vacancies, and he expeets to get it within the next few days. So far he is alone, but by to-morrow half a dozen candidates, disap- pointed elsewhere, may be contesting for the jonor and the ve KENTUCKY APPLICANTS FOR OFFICE, John Wanamaker Sayers is the name of one of the Kentucky republicans who wants to be collector of the port at Louisville.

Lewis and aM. Armstrong are candidates for the same office. Col. John Falkner, the ex-surveyor of the port at Louisville, is here seeking reinstate- ment. Ex-Representative Hunt is one of his rivals after the office, Senator Beck took Col.

THE CHANGE MADE ON REPRESENTATIVE PAYSON’S RECOMMENDATION NOT A PRECEDENT—80 DE- CIDE THE WRESIDENT AND THE POSTMASTER- GENERAL, Republican Congressmen are agitated over the unexpected announcement by Postmaster- General Wanamaker that offensive partisanship is not to be considered as a valid charge to secure the dismissal of postmasters before the expiration of their commissions. A few days ago Representative Payson succeeded in securing the removal of the democratic postmaster at his home in Illinois upon the grounds that he had been over-active during the last election, The man was very active during the campaign, and was one of the proprietors of « paper that was especially bit- ter in its partisanship, When Mr. Payson asked for his removal some reluctance was shown by both the President and Postmaster-General Wanamaker to take any immediate action in the matter. Mr. Payson was asked if there was not some reason besides partisanship for the removal, but he refused to make any other charge, and, as will be remembered, the removal was made. The action of the department in this case has led to the filing of many charges of “offensive partisanship.” and there was a very general ex- ultation on the part of members who wanted to “clear up matters” in their districts as speedily as possible. They have been pressing these cases upon the attention of the President and Mr. Wanamaker, and have been looking for a rapid clearing out of old postmasters. On Saturday Mr. Wana- maker made the positive announcement to a member who had a very offensive partisan of a ostmaster he was working to have removed, Bhat the charge of offensive partisanship would not be regarded as sufficient cause for removals, Some other good reason would have to be given, and it did not matter whether or not that charge was attached, The member then called attention to the re- moval made for Mr. Payson. To this Mr. Wana- maker said that the President and himself had talked the matter over since then and had de- cided not to begin making discharges of post- masters on those grounds. He stated the case very positively, et 9 a hope that the parti- sanship charge would considered. ie criticism was provoked in certain newspapers by the Illinois case, and members think that it is sensitiveness to this criticism that has caused a halt in such removals, This policy applies, of course, to those offi- cers who are commissioned for four — It is likely that removals of fourth-c! post- masters will be speedy. It is expected that all the division su itendents of the railroad mail service will be replaced within a few days. Suiont Free at THe Wasutnaton Banracks.— THE BAD TUNNEL WORK. [Continued from First Page.) lowed to be employed. The cement was to be and not allowed to become wet. The last tests were conducted toward the close of the work by a special man at the head of the: shaft, at first by the sub-inspectors. There were no checks upon the amount of cement that went into the mortar until the latter part of the work, when it began tobe suspected that bad work was being done. Then a special inspector was appointed. THE VOUCHERS FOR PAYMENT were based on measurements made in the tun, nel by an assistant engineer. Latterly the chief inspector also made reports for this pur- ose. When the work was closed under the rst contract Maj. Lydecker and Lieut. Town- send spent two days in the tunnel, inspecting, and the payment was made on that basis. No special tests or soundings were applied to de- termine the character of the work done. BAD WORK. The witness said that he had discovered a number of pieceg of bad work, some had been found by the chief inspector, and others by _ the _sub-inspectors. Abont the Ist of last July a bad piece was found, about 40 feet of dry packing and_cavi- ties, The sub-inspector was discharged and a change made in the force of men. A short Gare chee this there had been ® reorganization of the inspection force by placing two subs in each heading instead of one. THE WORK WAS EXAMINED by those superior to the inspectors at differ- ent times, such an examination as could be made in passing through the tunnel. There was nothing to indicate bad work. Then the witness did not know of special tests as to soundness, but since the discovery of the | New York frauds the sounding process had come to his knowledge. The text-books offered no suggestions as to means of discovery of bad. work behind lining, and this sounding was a new art, THE EXTENT OF MAJOR LYDECKER’S SUPER- VISION, “What was the extent of the supervision of the work exercised by Major Lydecker?” asked Major Davis, “He made himself familiar with the details, exammed the reports, and made personal in- spections,” “Lo what extent did he devote himself to the work of inspection?” “He went through the tunnel with me several times when I first reported and afterward on ‘ral occasions,” Did he have any stated intervals of visiting pre nb “No.” ‘How long a time have you known to elapse without a visit from Major Lydecker?” “I have known two months to go THE KENDALL BROTHERS’ DISCLOSURES, Lieut. Townsend then detailed the story cf the Kendall brothers’ letters and disclosures and the manner in which the matter was brought to the attention of Major Lydecker. “Thad no idea,” said the witness, “that there existed anything of this kind: The possibility of fraud had always been in my mind, and the absolute impossibility to catch bad work if the sub-inspectors were crooked. I thought that the sub-inspectors were honest, capable men, and I could see no evidence that bad work had been done on our tunnel.” THE DISCLOSURE OF BAD WORD IN NEW YORK had aroused his suspicion as to the integrity of the inspectors, but nothing had pointed this doubt. The only thing he could do was to make the time of visits ir- regular. No especial orders were given to Kirlin to be unusuaily active in his supervision, The discovery of the bad work fast July caused the discharge of the sub-inspector, but that was the only thing resulting. The mere act of packing was not difficult of itself, but the circumstances were such that there was little chance to discover bad work. There is a large part of the work where cavities exist, other parts where the packing is utterly dry; and other parts where the pack- ing “is ' in layers, good and bad. A SMALL SUM TO LINE THE TUNNEL. It should require a comparatively small sum to line the tunnel—about 2100,000—much less than has been expended. There are portions of the tunnel of which witness would be afraid, but on the whole he thought that the tunnel, in its present condi- tion, would carry water. This ended the direct examination, and Gov. Bontweil took the witness in hand, CAPT. SYMONS CROSS-EXAMINED, His questions related mostly to details of the work of packing. He elicited the fact that Lieut. Townsend re- ported to jor Lydecker every morning at the aqueduct office. ADJOURNED. At3 o'clock the court adjourned to meet at 10 o'clock to-morrow morning. This will here- after be the regular hour of meeting. COURT NOTES. Gen. Schofield escorted Gen. Crook to the court room, and when he entered, exclaimed that it was the best court-martial room he had ever seen. There were several ladies posh this morn- ing, who seemed very much bored by the legal lore which the judge-advocate read. They re- tired while the contracts were being read to the consulting room. Mr. Maurice Pechin, of the War department, who acted in the same capacity for the tunnel court of inquiry, served to-day as stenographer. Gen. Crook is not such an elderly manasa major-general is supposed to be. He has light brown hair, without any particular lock, and long brown side whiskers. He has a rather kind face, and his hands are soft and white. Altogether the general does not present any such formidable appearance as his reputation as an Indian fighter would pre-suppose. Col. Black is a more elderly-looking man, with a me gray beardand a slightly bald head. He looks like a Frosns os merchant rather than a soldier, and somewhat resembles in ap- pearance Gen. Duane, who recently retired from active duty as the chief of engineers, Col. Dodge looks a little like Col. Black, ex- cept that he has more hair and a shorter beard. ‘ol. Townsend has a short, sqyare-cut gray beard, and a keen, shrewd look. He looks like a lawyer or a politician. Col. Poe is one ef the most soldierly-lookin; men on the court. He wears a moustache an imperial, iron-gray. ‘ol. Comstock looks like the newspaper cuts of Attorney-General Miller. Col. Mendenhall has a long white beard, and deserves the rank of the patriarch of the court. Lieut.-Col. Flagler rivals Col. Dodge in size. He has a short-clipped, pointed beard, a la Boulanger, just turning gray. Col. Piper is a small man, with a very white beard and a watehful, quick manner. During the readings this morning he was somewhat | nervous, and followed the words of the judge- advocate with various nods of his head. Col. Gillespie has a somewhat ministerial look, with short English side-whiskers and a clipped moustache, here is not a decidedly bald head in the court, although Cols, Black, Comstock, Menden- hall, and Gillespie have slight claims in that direction. Col. Whittemore is the youngest looking man on the court. Mr. John F. Swift, who acts with Gov. Bout- well as counsel for Major Lydecker, is a’ good- looking young man and affords a contrast for the governor's age. He sat at the governor's ~ elbow, and Major Lydecker on the other side.

Steam Railroads in South Washington. ANOTHER LETTER OF COMPLAINT TO THE DIS- TRICT COMMISSIONERS FROM MESSES, PARKER AND DWYER—IF RELIEF IS NOT AFFORDED THEM THEY WILL APPEAL TO THE PRESIDENT. The war on the illegal railroad tracks in South Washington continues with unabated vigor. Not a day goes by but that the subject is brought to the attention of the Commissioners by Messrs. Parker and Dwyer. Saturday they called and presented the following letter: Wasaincron, D. C., March 23, 1889, Hon. Commissioners District of Columbia, Gentlemen: A few days ago we submitted affi- davits from Messrs. John T, Webster and Pat- rick Sullivan as to permanent unlawful obstruc- tions of Delaware avenue, of Virginia avenue, and E street at Virginia avenue southwest, in the shape of fences maintained by the Balti- more and Potomac Railroad company, and we must say that we are surprised at the tardiness shown in removing the obstructions. One day should be sufficient for any capable inspector to remove the fence, as was done in the case of the poor citizen who had a shed on the Potomac flats on the line of 15th street southwest. We have been parent in awaiting answers to all of our complaints, but in thig instance we are tired of non-action and now demand « reply, be it favorable or unfavorable. Should the official written reply not be forthcoming in a few days we will feel it our duty to complain to the President of the United States that we don’t receive proper consideration at the hands of the Commissioners, Also be kind enough to oficially inform us whether the police have been instructed to carry out the police regula- tions, It was only this ‘morning that a train of cars blocked D street and Virginia avenue for fully five minutes, and an officer standing on the corner of E street and 6th street southwest, viewing the violation of law, and like the Com- missioners, seemed not to be troubled in the least about it. But look ata poor fellow with both legs off, shooting crap—he is captured and run in—he could not well escape. A good pay column could be made for the pr egless crap player on one side arrested—big strong railroad companies violating the laws and not molested. Very respectfully, 4 Cuartes H. Parker. ir N.

Conklin, an employe of the city gas-works, charged with an attempt to blow up the gas-works Saturda; night. The accused had been discharged, and, it is alleged, was very angry with the manager of the works, It was charged that while under the influence of liquor he went soon after mid- night on Saturday, turned on all the stop cocks in the cellar between the retort house and the gas reservoir, and set the gas on fire, Analarm of fire for the second w: was sounded and the engines hurried to the gas-house, but the em- ployes there had turned off the gas and extin- guished the flames before the engines arrived, and they did not go into service. It is thought that had the fire gotten well under way it would have caused the explosion of the large gas tank aud dealt destruction to life and property in that neighborhood. The mayor sent Conklin on to the grand jury, and in default of bail he was committed to jail, Hiouway Roppery.—On the West End road hag eal as Wm, Deavers was i alleges that a colored man snatched his watch and chain and ran off.

Impressive Funeral Service Over the | He Would Rather Play With the Bos tons than Manage the Washingtons. The New York World to-day publishes the idence of the late Justice Stanley Matthews following interview with John Ward. “No,” he replied; “I have not signed yet, an@ there are no prospects of my signing for some time at least.” Ward denied strenuously that he had been interviewed by any one aw | thorized to speak for the Boston club. “Thad a talk to-day,” said he, “with a gem tleman from Boston who wanted to know if I Would like to play in that city and whether I would go if matters could be arranged in a sat isfactory manner. I told him that I would much prefer to remain in New York, but that influences were at work among those in author- in the club that would probably make it | better for me to leave. I had arranged terms with Boston previous to my departure for Aus- | tralia, and I told this gentleman that I would ne — to fo to Boston for the same terms w. io not want to play in any club where Iwill be handicapped GC the feeling me. Under such circumstances I rth gs ps the ball which I feel I am capable of with appier surroundings, “T have learned that the Boston club will not Megotiate with the Washington people for m | release, and if I play in that city it will dey = | | ina great measure on my own exertions, What Ihave learned of this matter has been from am unofficial source. The Boston people are will- ing to trade two players for my services, but of | course the whole thing rests with Mr. Day, I | understand that he will not return before April 15, and I suppose my affairs will remain in obevance until it time.” “Did Mr. Hewitt call upon you fo-day?” was ed. “Yes,” replied Ward; “he came in this after- noon and set the ball rolling by asking how I would like to go to Washington. I told him frankly that I did not care to go to that city as I thought thet too much would be expected of me. I told him that I thought he had arranged matters in such a way that entirely too much depended upon my services. The people ina small y like Washington are much harder to satisfy than those of Boston or New York. It strikes me that he was rather injudicious in ex- pending the money he is said to have done for the services of one man. With that amount he | might have boughtseveral players.equal, if not superior, to myself. Linformed Mr. Hewitt that | his terms were satisfactory, but that 1 would not | consent to go to Washington until I had seen Mr. Day, and that I hed much rather go to | Boston. If I can neither go to Boston nor re- | main in New York, Imight sigu a provisional | contract to go to Washington. I look upon | this city as my home, and would hate to leave | it, but I can neither do justice to myself or to the base ball public so long as I feel that there is any feeling against me among those in au- thority in the club, By the way,” said Ward, as the reporter rose to take his leave, “you may say thatif there 1s to be a meeting of the Brotherhood next Tuesday, as reported in the papers, I know nothing whatever of it.” see — The Defective Third Section. A DECISION BY THE INTERSTATE COMMERCE CoM- MISSION. A decision was filed to-day by the interstate commerce commission in the case of the Little Rock and Memphis R. R. Co. against the St. Louis, Iron Mountain and Southern, and the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia railroad companies. It is to the effect that while under the present English legislation the Little Rock and Memphis railroad company would w doubtedly be admitted to participate in through passenger business betwee points east of Memphis and points west of Little Rock at through rates, and while it was apparently the intention of Con- ress to incorporate the substance of the En- &lish law in this respect into the third section of the act to regulate comme: m in failing to provide the necessar: for the formation of the through ®pportionment or division of the through rate, Congress has left this part of the third section practically inoperative without co-operation on the part of the carriers themselves, mendations for amendment to the law designed to meet this difficulty were made in the second annual report of the commission, aud those recommeudations are again renewed, vertheless Rip YOURSELF of the discomfort and danger ab tending a cold by using Dr. Jayne's Expectorant, an old established curative for coughs, sore throat, 4nd pulmonary affe: HAUGHTON—A at S26 South Pac Charles T.
