Last Teams The Sa A MYSTERY CLEARED UP. The Body of Maggie Thompson Found— Her Murderer Confesses. CixvzLaND, Onto, June 10.—About a month ago Maggie, the little daughter of Jake Thomp- son, an employe of the Valley railway, myste- riously disappeared, since which time @ steady search has been made for _ her. Various theories for the child’s absence have been advanced, among them, one to the effect that she had been spirited away by nuns and hidden in some con- vent. The mystery was cleared up last night, when the dead “and horribly mutilated body of the little irl was found in a hole leading from the cellar of Adam Leuth’s residence, No. 42 Merchant avenue, For several days the family has been annoyed by a sickening stench which emanated from the cellar, and it was while trying to locate the source of the odor that THE GHASTLY REMAINS WERE DISCOVERED. Leuth, his wife and son, Otto, a boy about seventeen years old, were placed under arrest and taken to the Central police station, where, after being entangled ina net of cross-ques- tions, Otto confessed to having murdered the girl on the day she disappeared. His parents were away from home at the time and he enticed little Maggie into the house, where, after monn es to outrage her, he beat her brains out with a hammer aud then tore the clothes from her body and accomplished his purpose. He afterward @ragged the corpse to the cellar and hid it in the hole where it was found. The boy’s con- fession clears up a mystery that has caused a sensation throughout the state. He is now un- der arrest for murder. pees FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.

The High Service Reservoir Not Likely to Send a Mimic Flood Downthe Streets. A statement was made in one of the Sunday papers to the effect that the high-pressure res- ervoir at Georgetown was in a precarious con- dition and was lable to give way at any mo- ment. There were no facts presented in support of the statement, but the mere rumor was one which would be apt to startle even careless people whose homes are near the reservoir, A'Srar reporter went up to the place this morning in search of the alleged weakness, and spent a good dealof time in examining the | reservoir and the plans from which it was con- structed. HOW IT IS BUILT. It was built in 1853 under the immediate per- sonal supervision of Gen. Meigs, and its sta- bility has never been questioned. ‘The interior of the reservoir is of brick set in lib- jeral layers of the best cement. The wall is thick enough to withstand thrice the pressure ever exerted upon it; in fact the pressure tends tothe center of the bottom and not to the concave sides, The bot- tom is amply protected from the force of the water, concrete and masonry of the best de- scription having been used throughout. Heavy masonry shields and braces the exte- rior and subterranean portions of the big bowl, and then an embankment of the most solid kind of earth, varying from 60 to 100 feet in thickness, adds its weight to make things fast, The final security isa wallof masoury five feet five inches in thickness, surrounding the entire hilltop in which the reservoir sets. No where is there the least perceptible leakage, In two places the exterior wall on the street shows moisure, but a brief examina- tion sufficed to show that the water was drain- age from the steep slopes and not from the re- servoir. Inside the structure the brick, both above and below water, was apparently sound. The quantity of water in the reservoir is much less now than it was two or three months ago, Rev. A. Van De Vyver, whose appointment as bishop of the Richmond diocese was an- nounced several days ago in acablegram from Rome. says neither himself nor the cardinal has information of his appointment. The burned district in Seattle, W. T., cov- red an ares of thirty-one | blocks, and the Coast Review (newspaper) places Proper loss at $7,000,000, ‘This is covered bya Noted insurance of @2,250,00.

Report of Surgeon-General Hamilton to the President. DICTATOR SCOTT IN CHARGE—FEATURES OF THE DISASTER—THE FEARFUL JAM AT THE RAILROAD BRIDGE — JOHNSTOWN'S WATER SUPPLY — XO FEARS OF & GENERAL EPIDEMIC. Pr. Hamilton, surgeon-general of the Marine hospital service, returned from Johnstown last night, and to-day submitted to the President his report upon the disaster. It givesa very clear idea of the situation there. The report says: THE SURGEON-GENERAL'S TOUR OF INSPECTION. I have the honor to report for your informa- tion that I visited Johnstown, Pa., according to your verbal instructions, leaving this city at 10 p. m, on Thursday last. I arrived at Johns- town on Friday at 2:30 p. m. On arriving I immediately visited the “head- quarters” building, where 1 found Dr, Groff and Dr, Libbett, of the Pennsylvania state board of health, anda miscellaneous mob of people in the building, most of whom were en- gaged in some sort of work connected with relief measures, Finding that there was nothing for me to do at that office I started out on & tour of inspection of the place. After some difiiculty I pushed my way through the crowd to the desk of Mr. Scott, who has as- sumed the powers of a dictator, and procured —— to enable me to go through the guard a, SCENE OF TAE DISASTER. The newspaper statements of the devastion are correctin the main. ‘he disaster occurred on the 3ist of May. at about 3p. m. The busi- ness portion of the city of Johnstown occupied the area between the large stream known as Stony creek and the small stream known as ee river, and isa triangular area of ground, wing for its two sides the rivers aforesaid and for its base a high hill, at the base of which there is a fringe of wooden houses yet untouched by the flood This main triangle is joined by a triangle on one side, the apex extending up the Cone- maugh valley,and on the other ty one ex- tending up Stony creek. The Pennsylvania railroad entered by the Conemaugh wally and the Baltimore and Ohio by the Stony creek valley. These sub-triangular spaces are in- cluded in the general devastation, Scarcely a vestige of the plan of streets remained on Friday, except that Main street had been cleared in its center by gangs of men em- ployed by Messrs, Booth ‘lynn, contractors of Pittsburg, but by Saturday morning there were several streets passable. Curbstones were visible in a few places on this vast area and here and there a house, store, or other public building was standing in ruins to give a land- mark to the workmen, REMOVING THE DEBRIS, It is estimated that about 3,000 men are en- gaged in the work of the removal of the debris, The debris consists of saw-logs, house-timbers, wreckage of furniture, floors, roofs and wooden side walls, with acres of splintered and crushed wood. Among the debris are found the re- mains of persons drowned, or killed by the fal- ling timbers, and dead animals of all kinds, The work of clearing up the — surface debris is going on well, and in my judgment ten days more ‘of the same systematic work will suffice to clear the sur- face of the main portion of the late city, but the debris of the Conemaugh valley proper and that of the Stony creek valley has yet only been touched by the gangs of laborers of the two railroads, while their respective tracks have been partially cleaned. THE DRIFT AT THE RAILROAD BRIDGE. The Pennsylvania railroad had a stone arch bridge across the Conemaugh just below the junction of the two streams, and at this bridge there is an area of drift of about twelve acres, This drift consists of saw-logs, locomotives, iron boilers, wire from the wire works, debris from wrecked buildings, and dead bodies of humay beings and ‘animals. A strong stench was plainly perceptible at this int, aud but little success had ad been met with in the attempt to clear it out. Many charges of dynamite have been exploded in the vain attempt, and in my judg- meut nothing but the most persistent effort will remove the drift, and the efforts should be in- telligently directed; grapple irons and tackle, such as are used on the U, 8. snag boats, are necessary, and the work should’ be directed’ by eome one familiar with that class of work, Adjutant-Gen, Has- tings, of the Pennsyivania national guard, on Saturday employed Messrs, Coburn & Co., of Altoona, with 150 men to work at this drift and hand-grappling irons, The general says that 3,000 men could be employed at this work. Mr. Goburn informed me that at the sate rato of progress as that made on Saturday he thought the drift could be removed in ten days, ‘Through the generosity of Altoona this force is city, but it paid by that is apparent that the force is inadequate, and their work would be more intelligently divided if an officer of the engineer corps of the army were instructed to advise with Gen, Hastings as consultory engineer. This suggestion I had the honor of making to you by telegraph. THE MEDICAL RELIEF WORK. On Saturday the medical relief work was divided into districts by the board of health and ten local physicians placed in charge of them. There is a la beer hall converted into a hospital, which is in charge of physician from Philadelphia, To this hospital all the wounded are brought by the police and the different attendants. The sick and wounded are now mainly con- fined to those persons working as laborers, and in the various relief organizations outside of the laborers there are few citizens left, Many are lost and many gone away from the scene of their great calamity. There are some twenty physicians, ten of whom are able to work, but no more are needed, and it would be a great relief if many of those from a distance would go away. ORDER SUCCEEDS CONFUSION. For a time there was great confusion in the issue of supplies of clothing and food, but on Thursday that portion of the work was turned over to the commissary general, Gen, Leach, accompanying Gen. Hastings’ command, and system has taken the place of the chaotic con- dition, All supplies intended for the sufferers should be sent to the care of Gen, Hastings, and clothing supplies are believed to be now no longer necessary. Fifty dozen pairs of rubber gloves for the use of the persons handling dead bodies would be a welcome present to the workmen clearing up the debris, especially for those at the bridge ft. There are many private organizations having tents and temporary sheds, each working on its own plan, Some public-spirited towns, hav- ing «ent relief supplies, send along a corps to attend to their issue. This is no longer neces- sary, and this plan reminds one of the COUNTY DONATION PARTIES where the good people of the parish, having resolved to send in a lot of good things to their minister, go along and eat them up ina single evening. It is safe to say that the relief work would be much better done by the national uard under the intelligent command of Gen, Nanings Wea inneny otter way. The Red Cross association have a hospital above the town in the Stony Creek valley and on Saturday started one at Kernville. At the latter place. there being no other hospital, the Red Cross hospital may be of some service. The first location served a good purpose at first. but when the regular hospital was started the patients were few that found their way up the long distance to Stony Creek valley. Kernville is now accessible by means of the pontoon bridges placed by Capt, Sears, of the engineer corps of the army. That village is immediately opposite the area lately occupied by the business portion of Johnstown, aud shared in the general wreck. Although many of the buildings are still standing they are badly wrecked, and the question of applying the torch to them was being considere DICTATOR ScorT. The government of the place is at present rather a peculiar one. No semblance of muni- cipal goverment remains, and acitizen of Pitts- burg by the name of Scott, has by consent, more or less general, assumed the functions of dictator. The national guard were not given control of any part of the duty at first, as itseemed would have been natural, at a time when all civil government was overthrown, and the able, ac- tive and efficient Gen, Hastings and his com- mand are simply acting as a guard to the ruins the exception above noted. As a painful evidence of the lack of concentrated control in this form of government, it is to be noted that Mr. Scott has constituted fifteen committees, some of whom are now functus officio and others have been superseded, [The list of committees is here given by Dr. Hamilton, I have not spoken of the work of rebuilding, which will oceupy months to get the cellars cleared so that it may be begun; nor have I riven paps dln = = pm of individual suffering, jut the charitable people of this country ought not to cease their contribution of money for some weeks to come, NO DANGER OF A GENERAL BPIDEMIC.

A Delegation of Chinamen Among the Few Callers at the White House. ‘This was the President's day of rest from Office-seekers. The only callers he received, aside from those at the public hand-shaking in the east-room, were Secretary Blaine, General Schofield and Assistant Postmaster-General Clarkson. When the President went to the east room at 1 o'clock he found himself suddenly in the midst of ® colony of Chinese. Forty-eight Chinamen stood in line with their yellow, ex- Legererene pared some sort in bis ried a ‘age or of some band as if intended as an offering, Some of them had odd musical instruments of Chinese construction under their arms, They looked as if upon some idolatrous mission to the shrine of a heathen god. The President looked relieved when they passed with merely a hand-shake, making no attempt to pile their offerings about him or to greet him with the wild notes of a celestial air, But they were not heathens, They were Christian ‘Chinese. They were the aaa e schogl class from Mount Vernon place, Balfi- more. They were in charge of Mrs, Crook and Rev. Mr. A. H. Tuttle, PRACTICAL CHRISTIANITY. The Willing Workers at Willard Hall Still Busy. A STEADY STREAM OF CLOTHING, FOOD AND MONEY FROM THIS CITY POURING INTO THE RECENTLY FLOODED DISTRICTS—NEARLY $50,000 coNTRIB- UTED HERE. The corps of packers at Willard hall were hard at work to-day. Clothing for the flood sufferers was piled about on the floor and the chairs, These piles showed some signs of dimunition, but those in charge said that the wagons had not come in yet from their col- lecting tours, A large amount of clothing has already been dispatched to Johnstown and other points and it seems likely that the dona- tions will continue for a short time yet. The great work of relief which has been entered into with so much spirit and generosity by the people of the city is drawing to a close, how- ever, The money and supplies contributed during the past few days has reached the GRAND TOTAL OF NEARLY $50,000. Treasurer Johnson said to-day that he had requested all solicitors to report at once to the committee, as it was the desire to close up the subscription lists by to-morrow night, The measures to relieve the flood sufferers in this locality have been promnt and efficient, and the committee view their work with considera~ ble pride and are especially gratified by the cordial and sympathetic support which they have received from all classes of the com- munity, A DISPATCH PROM MR, EMERY, The following dispatch was received to-day from L, 8. Emery, at Johustown, Pa, “Supplies abundant here for the present. Are there any further directions to give or in- formation desired? There will be a change of management in a day or two. I will return to- morrow or next day, unless requested by the committee to remain longer. Six thousand laborers are now employed im clearing away debris, The dead are being foundat the rate of 60 to 70 daily.” THE STRANDED CANAL BOATMEN, Mr. F. L. Moore, a member of the George- town committee, who are disbursing money for the benefit of the canal boatmen stranded between Georgetown and Great Falls, was at headquarters to-day. He stated that there were some forty canal boats between these two points. In connection with Mr. Greenless and Mr. Mitchell, members of the committee, they had distributed from $7 to $15 to each boat. ‘{nis morning they sent to their homes six per- sons, the B. and O, furnishing transportation free of charge. There are about thirty-five men, women and children who will be sent away to-morrow, The committee have fur- nished these people with boxes to pack up their goods. J. F. Trazer, whosaid that he represented the soldiers’ and sailors’ department of the Woman's Christian Temperance union, was at Willard’s hotel to-day, He said that he had been giving assistance to the boatmen at Georgetown, UP THE CANAL. Treasurer Johnson to-day directed that as- sistance be given as follows: Box of clothing and $100 to Darby & Embrey, Williamsport, Md.; $100 to A. Spencer & Co., Harper's Ferry; 100 to E. W. Mer » Point of Rocks; $50 to Keedy & Snyder, Antietam, Md. Mr. Jobnson said that the committee would not send any more money away until some definite information was obtained of the needs at the different points throughout the country affected by the floods. It was the desire to send the money #0 generously contributed to places where it was most needed, Contributions To-day. Subscriptions received to-day by E, Kurtz Jobuson, treasurer, up to 2 p. m.: H.

THE CHANCES OF SECURING A RAILROAD—TALKS WITH HON. GEO. PETER, CANAL DIRECTOR TAL= BOTT, AND DELEGATE LAIRD—THE LEGAL PEB- PLEXITIES SURROUNDING THE CANAL QUESTION, Correspondenceof Taz Evextxa Stan. Rockviixe, June 10, 1889, ‘The entire damage done to the business in- terests of this county by the recent flood in the upper Potomac and the partial destruction of the Chesapeake and Ohio canal cannot yet be computed, but enongh is known to show that the county is poorer by this cause to the extent of several hundred thousand dollars, The tak- ing away of the means of transportation from a belt of country averaging 10 miles on the side of the canal, and which at present has no out- let except by wagon over inferior roads to sta- tions on the Metropolitan Branch of the Balti- more and Ohio railroad has had a tendency to greatly reduce the price of lands in that local- ity, while the uncertainty of future transporta- tion has caused almost a panic among the land owners, The direct damages to property along the line of the canal can only be appreciated by being seen, Hundreds of acres that a few days go were covered with luxuriant crops of grain and grass are now as bare of vegetation as a turnpike road, the entire crop and soil being washed away. Buildings of all kinds have shared the same tute. From the mouth of the Monocacy to Georgetown nothing but ruin can be seen, while the prospect of a better state of affairs seems gloomy. For many years the canal has been iooked upon as a toy of aspirin: oliticians, and many were the curses, loudan leep, heaped upon the heads of those who it was claimed used its control to further their own personal ends; but now, with its loss, its advantages as an outlet for the produce of a large part of the county is fully appreciated, rhe subject of the quickest and best way of escaping from this dilemma has engaged the thought of the leading citizens of the county for some days and various plans have been pro- posed, the leading idea being, however, that the canal will never again be used as a water- way, but will be superseded by a railroad, to be built upon the present route of the work or upon @ line parallel with the same and so far from the river as to avoid the freshets of the future. Should any company desire to build a road on the line last indicated it is thought that land for the same will be freely donated or can be acquired at a nominal value. The aub- ject of building a branch road from Barnesville station on the Metropolitan Branch to Pooles- ville is much agitated in that section of the county, and, if built, would do much to ad- vance the interests of the farming community in that region, ‘The construction of graded turnpikes from different points adjacent to the river to the railroad has also many advocates. This subject is receiving the earnest attention of leading citizens. MR. PETER’S VIEWS. Hon. George Peter, president of the Maryland senate, said to Tae Srar correspondent: “As to the future of the Chesapeake and Ohio canal it would be presumption for me to sug- gest. Of one thing there can be no doubt; that is, that a water-way like the canal was will not pay expenses in competition with railroads, Unless a different kind of water-way can be constructed to supply the place of the old canal it would be folly to rebuild it, for practical experience has clearly demonstrated the pres- ent prices for tonnage on coal will not pay for the necessary and ordin: y working expenses, regardiess of unusual and extraordinary ex- penses to which the canal has always been subjected. The trade outside of the coal ship- ments is comparatively nothing. Not more than ten days before the freshet, in a conversa- tion with the Hon, James C. Clark, he ex- pressed a decided opinion that at present rates. the canal could not possibly be sustained, and its existence was only a matter of time. Again, in the state of New York its canals are now virtually free high- ways supported by the state. The destruction of the canal is a terrible blow to Western Mary- land and Georgetown, D. C. “The most fertile lands along the river are al- most valueless, except for grazing purposes, without the canal, With my present views I can see no way out of the dilemma except to supply its place with arailroad. At the same time the dams already constructed across the river might be utilized in supplying. wherever practical, water powers for industries of various kinds. ‘Iam confidenta railroad conldbeconstructed to withstand the freshets. I am led to this be- lief by the condition of the canal viaducts across Monocacy and Seneca, both of which have stood for years and are standing to-day as monuments to the skill and fidelity of the engineers who constructed them, notwithstand- ing both are fully exposed to the effects of the Potomac river and the streams which they span. For years I have been in favor of the state’s disposing of her interest in that great work, and granting the franchise for the construction of a railroad, The state could have handsome sum (about $2,000,000), which I sup- pose now is virtually lost. This condition of affairs has not been the fruits of politics so much as conflicting interests, both private and public. The interests of Cumberland in boat- puilding and shipments of coal were 80 ex! sive that Allegheny and Garrett counties alway opposed any change. Washington and Fre ick counties were supplied by both the canal and B. and O. railroad, and were opposed to any change. A railroad on the canal would have come in competition with the B and O., and also diverted both freight and travel from the city of Baltimore. All of the large number of persons owning boats and carrying on busi- ness over the canal were opposed to any change. These were the obstacles which prevented a sale of the canal and have prevented the build- ing of a railroad.” WHAT STATE DIRECTOR TALBOTT SAYS. Mr. H. W. Talbott, for many years interested in public affairs and at present a state director of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, said to the correspondent: “The loss sustained by Mont- gomery county and by its people through the recent flood is very great. I am informed by county commissioners that it will take fully 000 to repair damages to roads and bridges. ‘The loss to individuals will be from that sum to $50,000. This is the direct loss. The indi- rect or consequential damages will reach far beyond that sum if the canal should not be restored ora railroad built to take its piace. Hundreds of persons in this county are depend- ent on the canal, directly or indirectly, for their sustenance, Various industries will have to be abandoned unlees the canal is restored or arailroad takes its place. Asa consequence many persons will be thrown ont of employ- ment, and, being unfamiliar with any other kind of work than that in which they have been employed, will have difticulty in supporting themselves and families. “The loss on account of depreciation in value of real estate along the line of the canal will be very heavy. Another indirect loss, in case the canal is not restored or a railroad built on its bed, is the change in roads which will be necessary. The canal is the objective ee of many roa in this county. These will have to be changed or closed, and new roads laid out, to enable people to get to market. The canal officials think it will cost from 500,000 to $1,000,000 to fully restore the canal. This looks as if it was the end of the canal question, As to whether a railroad will be built along its bed from Cumberland to Georgetown remains to be seen, To persons looking at the river when the water was at its highest, the idea of a rail- road being built ou the line of the canal seemed preposterous, but Iam informed that Col. Rich- ard Randolph, a civil engineer of fine reput: tion and much experience, says it is perfectly practicable, and that he can builda railroad along the line of the cana} and will guarantee its safety. If he is correct and a railroad should take the place of the canal the flood will have roved a blessing in disguise to our country. ew and varied industries will spring up along its line, giving employment to many more than were formerly employed and at more remunera-~ tive wages. The value of land will be greatly enhanced, and the territory bordering on the Potomac will be surpassed by no portion of the country in wealth and prosperity.” DELEGATE LAIRD’S OPINION, Hon. Philip D. Laird, member of the house of delegates, who has given this subject of the canal attention for years, gives his views of the crisis to Tux Sraz correspondent as follows: “The Chesapeake and Ohio canal was of im- mense importance and benefit to the people of Montgomery county, and its destruction will cause a shrinkage of at least 50 per cent in the value of the lands which are dependent upon it fora market. What is to be done now is a se- rious and em! ing question. The result of legislation and —— that the canal question is surrounded by legal as well as prac- tical questions, The status of “he creditors of the canal, except that of the state, cannot be altered by legisiat and J. have no doubt that the state freely uish the power to construct a railroad over its route. An independent company conld not employ this route until there was actual abandonment and non-user of it by the canal company. Either scheme requires legislation by the state of Maryland before it can be even As to repairs, two difficul- ties stand in the way: 1, The bankruptey of the canal company. It is absolutely without credit, and the legal questions are so numerous and perplexing, that it is unreasonable to ex- ‘t private capital to come to the rescue. 2. y the provisions of the constitution, the legis~ lature is prohivited from involving the state in the construction of works of internal improve- ment, or granting anyaid thereto, which shall involve the faith or credit of the state, and from making any appropriatien therefor. So there is no hope of assistance from the public treasury. There are are two things the legis- lature can do: 1. Amend the canal company's charter; and, 2. Dispose of the state's interest in the caval. The latter could not be accom- plished in time to be of service without an extra session of the legislature. The board of public works is authorized by the constitution so sell the state's in- terest, “subject to such regulations and conditions as the general assembly may from time to time prescribe,” but such sale shall not go into effect “until the same 8 ratified by the ensuing geueral assembly.” I am hotaware that the general assembly has ever prescribed any regulations and conditions for the guidance of the board of public works in the premises. An extra session, called to meetearly in July, could make them, and a sale made thereunder could be ratified by the regu- Ber session in January, 1890. An extra session at the time named might also formulate amendments to the Constitution. to be voted for at the general election in November, which would get rid of some of the legal perplexities which surrounds the case, It is worth while to consider whether the large material interests of western Maryland, which are involved in the canal problem, do not justify an extra ses- sion. I simply make the suggestion without committing myself to it, Further reflection might show that it would be useless, Undoubt- edly the franchises of the canal are valuable, I do not think that the spirit of modern enter- prise will allow them to be forfeited, but I do not believe that private capital will embark in itso long as the state owns a controlling interest. The solution of the matter will come through the sale or donation of the state's interest, and the enlargement of the powers of the corporation. 8. A.M. —_-__ WATER METERS IN HOTELS. The Commissioners Suspend the Orders Requiring Their Use After July 1. WHAT COMMISSIONER DOUGLASS SAYS OF THE AC- TION OF THE BOARD—EE REVIEWS THE LEG- ISLATION IN REFERENCE TO WATER RENTS— HIS CONCLUSIONS. The Commissioners this afternoon again took up the subject of water meters, and after some discussion issued the following order: “All orders notifying residents of the Dis- trict to set water meters within their estab- lishments before the Ist of July, 1889, are hereby suspended.” VIEWS OF COMMISSIONER DOUGLASS, In conversation with a Srar reporter upon the subject totday Commissioner Douglas said: “TheCommissioners, in suspending the order to attach meters before July Ist, 1889, have felt con- strained to take action for severalreasons, As you know the act of July 14, 1870. provided that the supply of water to all’ manufacturing es- tablishments, hotels, livery stables and other places requiring a large quantity shall be de- termined by meters erected and maintained at the expense of the consumer; and the proper authorities shall charge and’ collect for the quantity so determined a price not exceeding 3 cents per hundred gallons, i. act,” said Mr. Douglass, ‘for some rea- son has been allowed toremain a dead letter for nearly twenty years, Now, while the past fail- ure to enforce a law is never of itself a full justification for present neglect, it always is a reason for the close exawination of a proposi- tion to resurrect, THE LAW oF 1879. “The law stood as above under the act of 1870 until June 10, 1879, when the following section became a law: Be it enacted, &c., That the Commissioners of the District of Columbia shall have all the powers and be subject to all the duties and lim- itations| provided in chapter eight of the Revised Statutes of the United States relating to the District of Colum- bia, excepting such powers and duties as belong to the chief of engineers; provided that water main taxes and water rents shall be uniform in said District; and provided further, that the rate of interest specified in section 202 of said Revised Statutes shall be increased to ten per centum per annum from and after the passage of this act. IFORM RATES PROVIDED FoR. “It will be noticed that the act provided that ‘water rents shall be uniform’ in the District In pursuance of this act the Commissioners adopted, to take effect January 1, 1881, a schedule of water rates, which some places were taxed by specific sums for a car; others so much per tub; others according to stories and feet front; locomotives certain sums for once or twice per da hotels by th bed or furnished ruoms; market-houses b stalls; boilers per horse power; street-washers according to nozzle or tip and minutes before sundow: wimming-baths, &c., a meter at ten cents per thousand gallons, &c. “It is a serious Teal question.” continued Douglass. “whether this multiform schedule is in accord with the proviso that ‘all water rents shall be uniform,’ and the board have feared, in an attempt to enforce this regula- tion, a deluge of litigation in the shape of in- junctions, with consequent cost and vexation to all concerned, instead of a fuller supply of water, ‘THE ACT OF 1882. “Then came the act of July, 1882, as follows: ‘That hereafter the operations of the water de- partment of the District of Columbia shall be under the direction of the engineer's ofiice of the District, subject to the control of the Com- missioners.’” This act simply in effect, desig- nated which Commissioner should primarily have the water question in his department, the board controlling the whole question when final action is to be had. REPRESENTATIVE HEMPHILL'S REPORT. At the first session of the Fiftieth Congress (the late one) a bill was introduced in the House to repeal so much of section 218 as “requires hotels to maintain meters,” &. The bill was referred to the committee aud Mr. Hemphill reported as follows: ° “The object of this bill is to repeal so much of section 216 of the Revised Statutes relating to the District of Columbia as requires hotels to erect und maintain meters to determine the quantity of water used. This section was passed in 1871, but has never been enforced in the District, The Commissioners, under au- thority given them by Congress, adopted a schedule of annual water rates, which virtually abrogated the former law, and which have been found satisfactory. As this law has never been enforced, and as there has been no demand for its enforcement, your committee think it should be repealed, The Commissioners of the Dis- trict see no objection to the passage of this bill, The committee therefore report ine bill back to the House and recommend that it do pass.’ “The report,” commented Mr. Donglass, “shows that the committee were unanimously of the opinion that the act of June 10, 1879, under which the above schedule of rents was made, virtually abrogated the former law. The former law was the act of July 14, 1870, under which the order now suspended was is- sued, The House of Representatives wnani- mously ed the bill on this report, and the present board are seriously impressed with the force of the opinion thns indorsed by a branch of the law-making power. CONCLUSIONS, “It will be observed that among the sched- uled items above cited hotels are specially rated at so much per bed, &c., this, under the well-known rule of — inte: tation that a special enumeration of a subject matter always takes that subject out of general one, of it- self relieves hotels from the meter provision in the last paragraph of the schedule. These embarrassmente about the meter question have convinced the board that the Woteer treatment of the whole subject is to suspend ings and refer the matter to Congress for solution. “The very able of the missioner heretofore noc & early om for an and authoritative solu- tion of the At Charleston, Wie Saturda; as memorial ex-conti = " alike ves of the blue and the i 4 exercises, was cele- who THE FILLED UP CHANNELS, Col. Hains Estimates the Damage te the River by the Freshet at $150,000. Col. Hains’ special report om the subject of the damage sustained by the improvements in Progress on the river front during the recent freshet has been received by the chief of em gineera, He states that at Long bridge the level of the water reached a height of 2 feet 7 inches above the freshet line at the same place in 1877, Om section one of the fists the growth of weeds and willows protected the fill from washing, so that prac- tically no damage was sustained by that part of the practically reclaimed flata Section 2 did hot fare so well. The water swept with com- siderable velocity diagonally across that section from its northwest corner to ward the site of the reservoir ontlet, and as the macerial comprising the fill is more sandy it had a small growth of weeds, and consequently considerable material was washed into the tidal reservoir, At the site of the latter the water poured over the coffer-dam, carrying with it all loose timber and tools of various kinds, swept away the em- bankments connecting it with the W: shore and the fill om the west side of the causeway of Long bridge, but did little damage to ‘the dam itself and none tothe masonry, Section three suffered but little, The material that was pumped up on the fill, but a few days before stood well, though quite so! THE MOST SERIOUS DAMAGE was done in the dredged channels, The Vir- Sinia channel above the Long bridge was filled to such an extent that there is not more than about 14 fect at low tide over the shoalest part, where there had been from 17 to 20 feet. The same channel below Long bridge filled up but little. except at the extreme souther! end, where it meets the Washington peat Here the fill is considerable. The Washington channel is filled up some, but not to such an extent as to seriously im- mode commerce. The report conciudes: fo determine with accuracy the amount of damage sustained on the river front will neces sitate further examination and surveys. “Lroughly estimate it, with the information now available, at about £150,000, the most of it being caused by the fillmg of the dredged channels,” oe WASHINGTON NEWS AND GOSSIP.
