Draney, who has the contract for sweeping the streets of Washington, stated toa ‘Star reporter to-day that if the streets are not cleaned often enongh it is not his fault, as he is compelled to sweep according to the schedule furnished him by the health department, With the exception of Pennsylvania, avenue, 7th street and F street, which are ‘daily streets,” all the streets are swept just when the health department orders it. @ more such orders the more profitable to the contractor, as he gets pay only for sweeping done. As to com- laints about streets not being left clean, Mr. raney said the greatest paius are taken to see that the dirt when Py oad the gutters is re- moved. If any is left behind he is docked for it. Frequent investigations of alleged care- Jessness in this respect have resulted in show- ing that the dirt complained of was swept into the a in the morning after the sweeping machines had done their work and the piles removed, He did not deny that the men, sixty of whom are employed, might be negli- gent occasionally, but everything possible is always done to prevent it. As to the garbage. Mr. Draney said that fre- quently the collectors are unable to get any re- sponse to knocks at back gates, and then com- laints are made that the garbage is not col- lected. He has sufficient force and teams to clean the streets properly and to collect the city’s garbage, and if either is not done prop- erly it is not his fault, =n ROR Mad Charges the Policeman With Profanity. In the Police Court Judge Miller had before him to-day Robert C. Holtzman, charged by Officer Frasier with profanity. The court de- cided to release the prisoner on his personal bonds, but Mr, Cahill insisted on a judgment of conviction or acquittal, A fine of $5 was im- posed. An appeal was noted and a warrant was procured by Holtzman against the officer charging him with profanity, He was Ignorant of the Facts. Mr. Timothy McCarthy, who was charged with Robert D. Ruffin in the Police Court yes- terday with obtaining money under false pre- tences from Robert A. Green, stated to a Stam reporter that, being ill at the time the offence was committed, Ruffin acted as his agent, and he (McCarthy) was ignorant of his having re- ceived money from Green. When he learned the facts he was only too glad that Green should have the money returned to him. The Death Record.

Warren said that he didn’t have the pistol, but Sam Nero bad it. A fine of $50 or ninety days was im- posed. Samuel Nero was charged with a like offense. and testimony was given that Nero and Warren got into a row when Nero drew a pistol. Ofti- cer Amos testified to making the arrests, and that there were others weg easy and knives there, Nero testified that Warren stopped the music and the witness asked why he had done 80, when Warren struck him and drew the pis- tol, and in the struggle he got the pistol from Warren which Thomas took from him.

He feelsand yet he does not feel.” When one of his arms or legs is moved by an attendant it gives him a great deal of pain, but if he is pinched quite vigorously he is unaware of it. Suffering from pain in the right leg is almost continuous, and it has made the sick man extremely irritable and cross. A RESTLESS NIGHT. Throughout the whole of last night Adler was restless; more so than any time previous. What sleep he bad was not of a character which would aid in rene’ his strength. His repose came in snatches of on =. = cites Phe phis a small doses was ed ly admin- istered, but even that potent drug was not as effectual as usual, although ithas given very sparingly. DIFFICULTY IX BREATHING. Much difficulty is experienced in the breath- ing and the capacity of the left lung is appa- rently smaller than heretofore. The right lung has been almost entirely useless for some time, and the whole burden of sustaining life rests on the — bilities of that one tung which e paralysis has not, as yet, affected. The res- Pirations are as distressingly labored as they were two weeks ago, and gradually their num- ber per minute is becoming reduced. This morn- ing they were down to 20. The temperature of Adler this morning was 97 8-10 de; while the pulse (which at 6 a.m. was 106) had run uj to 116 and was very weak—‘‘a mere thread,” said Dr. Wagner, The weakness has now reached a a rally will be almost impossible, and the Adler family realizes that there is now no room for hope. Adler shares in this belief, but he tries to imagine otherwise. ieee EPISCOPAL CHURCHES. The Demolition of Holy Cross—Pro- posed New Church at the West End. The building of the Holy Cross church, Massachusetts avenue and 18th strect, has been dismantled. The pews and other furniture have been sold toa colored congregation on Capitol Hill. Rev. Dr. Harold, the rector of the Holy where Cross, says that the church will hold no services | until the fall, when arrangements will probably be made for the erection of a new church build- ing somewhere in the same vicinity. The ground occupied by the church, as well as the building, was recently purchased by ex-Senator Van Wyck, who will probably erect a house there. The closing of the Holy Cross church will probably give an impetus to the movement which was started some time ago by some of the members of Epiphany church. A fine building site at the northwest corner of 18th and P streets is now owned bya member of the Epiphany vestry, and he offers to transfer the ground for what it cost him to any Episcopal church that may be organized. It is thought that @ paper will be cifculated among the Episcopal families living in that locality to as- certain how many would be willing to go into a new church enterprise. If the responses re- ceived are favorable there is no doubt but that ing Grant Warren was charged with ¢arrying a | # new Episcopal church will be erected there. ANOTHER TENNIS TOURNAMENT.

The old man got a half pint Friday and another half pint Saturday. He (the officer) declined to sayif he nos § drank Jiquor in Dunn's. Bohannan admitted that he got the liquor, but said that the clerk first refused to sell it to him, but then gave it to him. The court asked what he had done with the quarter the officer gave him. “I kept it,” said the old man. “Of course he gave it to buy the liquor, but if I got it for nothing I was that much in” The court said be could not convict on this evi- dence and dismissed case. ——— The Flood Relief Fund.

The estimate he gives of the result of the forth- coming census is somewhat startling, and be- coraes more so when we contemplate the proba- bilities of the future inthe light of the cer- tainties of the past, Without entering upon consideration of the systems of ‘second differ- ences,” &c., which are but mystifying to the reader not versed in the higher mathematics, we accept his conclusions asa basis for caloulstions regarding the future. In thts we feel the more justified because Mr. Loomis, using the same system of calculation, icted the result of the census of 1880 within 18,000 of the actual figures, He estimates that the lation of the country in 1890 will reach 000, an increase during the decade of more than 30 per cent. To allow a reasonable mar- Sancekeen le error, we may the total at 67, the decennial increase at 30 percent. Should this ratio of increase con- tinue, our population at the end of each decade during the next hundred years will be repre- sented by the following figures, the progressive immensity of which will surprise most people and perhaps cause them to wonder WHAT THIS WORLD 18 COMING To. 87,100,000 113,230,000 147,199,000 a enormous & —— how are they to be supported, and many other questions that, though purely speculative now, may assume a vital importance before the close of the next century. The.total area of the United States, including Alaska, is 3,580,242 square miles, or 2.291,354,880 acres, This area necessarily ‘in- cludes the lakes, rivers, and uninhabitable mountains and deserts, yet we find that there will be an average of more than two and one- half persons to each acre of our total area when the enumerators enter upon their duties one hundred years hence. The exact figures are 2.504. This is the outlook for only the ensuing cen- tury. By looking further ahead we find that applying the same ratio of increase there will in the = 2090 be 12,842,501,738 people strug- sling for an existence in this great and glori- ous land of ours, or nearly six persons to each acre, available and unavailable. What will be the result? Tho land, the source of all income, will not support such s population, and the theory of the survival of the fittest will find an ample field for exemplification, But, it will be aot, the figures I have = are themselves but a theory, baxed upon e assumption that the ratio of increase which prevails during the last half of the nine- teenth century will continue throughout the twentieth and twenty-first. Granted that it is an assumption, there is nothing apparent to show that is a violent or an unreasonable one. At to Mr. Loomis, the ratio of in- crease of population by births over deaths, | although much less than it was a century since, is at present 2.01 per cent per annum, or 20.1 each ten years, Accepting, for convenience, the ratio of decennial increase as 20 per cent, and casting aside all accretion from immigra- tion, we find that in the year 1990 our total | age will be more than six hundred and n million, and in 2090 but little lesss than — thousand five hundred million, Vhether these figures are accepted as rea- geration, tie fact still remains that the natural and inevitable increase of the population. not pees our own peered] but of the pred world, presents a pro! that may well en- gage the thoughtful mind. WHAT WILL BE THE FINAL RESULT? “Shirley Dare,” in one of her readable let- ters to Tue Star of a recent date, presents un- wittingly without doubt a solution in her argu- — corte — “~ near at “op — the “thoughtful and refined people,” looking upon the wedded state as being Teetfal in ioaplion and slavish in its effects, will cease to a leaving to ‘the fools” the propagation of the race. But atop of this comes the announce- ment that the eminent Dr. Brown-Sequard has discovered a by which human life may be indefinitely prolonged. Between the theories of the pessimistic lady correspondent and the French physician, one of which is as repugnant to the holiest feelings of humanity as the other is chimerical, — will perhaps be permitted to move along in future very much as they have in the past, A. BB. ee RACES WITH THE VALKYRIE. Yachting Gossip About the Plans of the Earl of Dunraven. From the New York Times To-day. A cablegram from London, published in this city yesterday by an afternoon paper, an- nounced that the Earl of Dunraven, in answer to the challenge of the New York yacht club, had declared he would not send the Valkyrie to America unless trial races were arranged to de- termine the yacht ta be pitted against her and the match be made an international affair, and that he would not allow his yacht to enter the contest of 70-footers for the Paine cup. These statements are so improbable as to suggest either that the noble yachtsman was incor- rectly reported or that the cablegram was man- ufactured without his knowledge. First of all the New York yacht club has is- sued no challenge to Dunraven or anybody else and what the earl probably did say, if he said anything, was that he would not send the Valkyrie over unless special races could be ar- ranged with the New York yacht club, as, by the time she could reach here the re; rac- ing season would be over and it would be scarcely worth his while to send her over merely to take part in the contest for the Paine cup. Asamatter of fact the Valkyrie is al- ready entered for the Paine cup race, but the entry was made on the supposition that she would come over to race for the America cup. There were not many prominent yachtsmen in town yesterday Ex-Commodure James D, Smith, who, ss chairman of the America cup committee, has conducted the correspondence with the earl of Dunraven in such a way as to make Mr, Speare feel donttodiy uncomfortable.

There was break in the dull monotony of “Chestnuts’” life Thursday evening, when ‘4 weird assortment of anacondas from South America arrived at the store. Yesterday morning a big boa made a spring that landed him out of the box on the brick floor of the yard. He wound around at « great rate among the boxes and barrels, The only way to handle one of these tremendous ser- pents is to catch him just back of the head and then to hold on hard. This serpent was so big and strong and made such threatening move- ments when any of the attendants approached him that they preferred to be cautious. Tne boa crawled toward the little monkey under cover of the barrels and boxes. Chest- nuts bad been watching him with much pleas- | Ure, and his little old-man face was screwed into a gleeful wrinkle, when suddenly the heal | of the boa opened directly over him. He stop] attering and began screaming | for Tetp. He dashed at the leather thong which held him, and then jumped right into the folds of the snake. He screamed sbrilly and wiggled, but the boa bad pi him close, and wrapping fold after fold about him crushed him to th.
