I should say that he was enjoying himself, Mr. Reid has been very happy in all his speeches, It seems that his newspaper training serves him in good stead and teaches him what to say and what nottosay. He has gone ahead and dwelt on the sympathy and fraternity that should exist between the two republics, There is a class of Frenchmen who are forever plotting the republic, and who lose their. hea they get beyond @ certain point, and I hope they always will.

Rudd of Cincinnati have issued a call for a general congress of the in the city of Baltimore November 11 and 12, 1889, to celebrate the centennial of the estab- lishment of the Catholic hierarchy of the United States. “The people of the United States,” says the call, “lately celebrated by appropriate religious nary of the formal establishment of our free government. Catholics justly shared in the general joy, asthey have likewise participated in the advantages our Constitution guarantees to all citizens, especially the precious boon, re- ligious liberty, the seed *of which was first planted and cherished in Catholic Maryland.” ————-20e $3 To THe Szasnone anv Back.—8; I train 1s rang Shortiide Medis Acad- Sree Page sea Noune Men.

On the 4th day of June last = permit was issued to the Washington and Georgetown rail- road to construct a cable line on 7th street. The order, it will be remembered, contained regulations governing the construction of the road and required that not more than 400 feet of street be opened at a time in one stretch. Mr. Daniel Bontecou, the chief engineer of the road, wrote to the Commissioners to-day calling their attention to the above require- ment, which, he says, was evidently imposed without a full knowledge and appreciation of the peculiar character of the work. He requests that the Commissioners give this matter fur- ther consideration. There are, he says, 33,000 feet of single track conduit to be built in three months, which would re: the pk eae of 550 feet per working rhe . As the horse car service and general travel on the street cannot be interrupted, one track will probably have to be built at a time. The work, he continues, consists of several distinct operations, neces- sarily consecutive, as follows: Taking up cob- blestone pavement, taking up old track, ex- cavating for tube, laying track, setting concrete forms, placing concrete, setting 5 Ay plastering and paving. He says, further, that the above operations are necessarily carried on by separate gangs of men, and it has elsewhere been found impracticable to do the work fast and give the concrete time to harden before turn: ag on travel within a short length of opened streets, It is probable that the Commissioners will in- crease the number of feet of street allowed to be opened at a time. es What it Costs to Deface the Monument. John Wilson of Fort Wafne, Ind., paid a visit to the Washington monument yesterday and ascended the shaft. When he came down he saw where the names of distinguished per- sons had been cut, scratched or written on the marble and he thought it would do no harm to add his name to the collection, He scratched in the marble his name and place of residence. Just as he fifished the inscription Watchman Evans arrested him, This morning he was fined $10 by Judge Miller. ——_—____ Excursions.

Swollen Streams and Damage to Rail- roads—Choked Sewers in the City. Capt, Dunwoody, the prellictions officer of the signal service for August, began his work this morning by predicting that to-day will be marked by threstening weather and light showers, with stationary temperature, while it will clear to-morrow, with slightly higher temperature, THE FOLLOWING HEAVY RAINFALIS occurred in this vicinity yesterday: Washing- ton, 1.32 inches; Harrisburg, 1.24; Lynchburg, 1,90; New York, 1.38; Philadelphia, 1.01; Bos- ton, 1.22.

The trains leaving Washington for the south last evening by way of the R., F. and P. rail- road were stopped at Alexandria in conse- quence of the report of a washout on that road between Quantico (the terminus of A. and F.) and Fredericksburg.

Over the Eastern branch, on some of the low grounds, the lower floors of houses were flooded last evening. Among the fami- lies thus incommoded were those of Officer W. T. Anderson and Bryan Downey. In some in- stances the gardens were badly damaged. In this city a number of sewers were choked up for a time, but no serious was done, ° THE OBSTRUCTED SEWERS. The Commissioners have lately received a great many complaints from persons that their Private sewers were stopped up and that when- ever a heavy rain occurred the water would back up in their houses, During the recent heavy rains, particularly, the Commissioners have received a number of such complaints. A Srar reporter in seatch of information called upon Captain Lusk, who has charge of the city sewers. The captain said: “Everything considered, the sewera have stood the pressure well, and where there has been any trouble it has been caused by the obstructed sewers, of which there are a great many inthe city. These sewers were laid rather hurriedly during the’ time of the old board of public works, and, not being pe tected, soon filled with the roots of trees. t year there was an appropriation of $15,800 passed for the replacement of unobstructed sewers, The unprecedented rainfall during the last two months obstructed many more by the sand brought into them, and consequently they have caused a great amount of trouble. The appropriation was insufficient, but I am in hopes that it will last long enough to doctor the worst cases, Next year I intend to recom- mend that a large appropriation for the work of replacing obstructed sewers be asked for.” 4 FLOOD AT RICHMOND EXPECTED. A special bulletin from the signal office, is- sued at 10:30 a.m. to-day, was as follows: “About two inches of rain has fallen in the upper valley of the James river during the past twenty-four hours, which will doubtless cause floods to become more destructive in the vicinity of Richmond to-day.” GOVERNMENT TELEGRAMS. Payment of Them Suspended Until Rates are Fixed. Postmaster General Wanamaker in a letter to the Secretary of the Treasury under date of July 26 states: “Inasmuch as the question of fixing rates for government telegrams during the current fiscal year is still unsettled, I have the honor to request that you will please sus- pend the payment of any telegraph bills against your department or any branch thereof until the official promulgation by this department of the order fixing the rates in question.” George 8. Batcheller, the acting secretary, has issued the following notice to the officers and employes of the Treasury department: “As requested in the appended letter of the Post- master General, payment on all bills against the Treasury department for telegraphing dur- ing the current fiscal year will be suspended for the present and until otherwise ordered.” WHAT THE WESTERN UNION WILL Do. In a dispatch from New York President Green saying: ‘(After consultation with our attorneys, the Western Union has concluded to go right on doing the government bnsiness and then test its claim to a fair compensation for its work in the Court of Cluims in Washington, should such a course become necessary. Our lawyers say that the government cannot, under the Constitution, force us to take messages at one mill a word.” WHAT MR. BLAINE SAYS, Everything Done Has Been in Compli- ance with the Act of Congress. As Secretary Blaine passed through Bangor, Me., last evening en route to Bar Harbor a re- porter called his attention to a declaration of a | Boston paper of yesterday to the effect that it would be impossibls for the national govern- ment to “sustain the pretension of Secretary Blaine that Behring sea is distinctly American water.” The Secretary of State simply remarked that it might be well for the paper in question to indicate the occasion, official or unofficial, where he had said anything at all on that point. Mr. Blaine made the further statement that everything done on the fur-seal question since the 4th of last March was in literal compliance with the directions contained in the act of Con- gress which was approved by President Cleve- land on the last day of his term.

The delegates from the department of the Potomac to the National encampment of the Grand Army, which will meet in Milwaukee the latter part of this month, have not been in- structed in regard to extending en invitation tothe national body to hold its next annual meeting in this city, It is thought that such a suggestion would be received with great favor by the national body, as the members would like tocome here, There has been no @ssion of the National encampment held in this city since the early days of the organization of the Grand Army, when Gen. John A. Logan was commander-in-chief. At that time the head- quarters were in this city. WHAT THE DISTRICT DELEGATES SAT. A Sra reporter to-day saw a number of the delegates who will attend the meeting in Mil- waukee and asked them if it was their inten- pe ed national — — swears city. y ex) emselves as desirous that this sity chould be srlected, vet they said that the Grand Army in this city di not feel like assuming such « responsibility. The cost of entertaining such a large body of men was very great, and, of course, if they came here this city could not afford to do less than others in the way of hospitality. But the embers of the Grand Army here were, as a rule poor men and could not afford to give large sums of money. There was no source of revenue except the VOLUNTARY CONTRIBUTIONS OF THE CITIZENS, and it was not thought that they could be ex- pected to contribute $50,000, It is estimated that some 200,000 people are brought together at these annual gatheri and the amount of money that such a crowd leaves ina city is of course very large. While the advantage toa city is manifest, yet the Grand Army men here do not think that it would be wise ‘to assume the burden of envertaining the National en- campment, While it is possible that some mem- ber of the delegation from this city will pro- pose at the national encampment the next session be held in this city, yet several of the delegates will oppose it on the grounds mentioned above. THE REPRESENTATIVES FROM THIS CITY are as follows: Thos. H. McKee, Benjamin M. Elliott and Jas, W. Butcher; alternates, Nathan | B. Prentice, Geo. H. Cooper and Chas, King. The following are entitled to seats: Depart- ment Commander Wm. 8. Odell, Senior Vice Commander Jas, M. Pipes, Junior Vice Com- mander 8. E. Faunce, Assistant Adjt. Gen. C. H. Ingram, Member of the National Council Amos J. Gunning; also all past department com- manders, DEPARTMENT COMMANDER ODELL FAVORS IT. Department Commander Odell, in talking with a Sran reporter to-day, expressed himself strongly in favor of holding the next national encampment in this ¢ity. He thought that the people here were accustomed to manage such affairs, and that it would not involve a very = expenditure of money. He said that | ‘50,000 would be, in his opinion, an extrava- | gant estimate of the cost of receiving and en- tertaining the members of the encampment. He said, however, that the Grand Army men hers did not feel like undertaking alone the work and responsibility. If the citizens, he said, would organize and authorize an invita- tion to be given he had no doubt that it would be accepted. Unless this was done he did not think that the National encampment would be iavited to this city. “__»__ A BOY WITH A PISTOL. A Game of Crap Followed by a Fight— There Might Have Been a Murder. Several small colored boys who sold papers yesterday morning collected at the corner of East Capitol and 3d streets about 8 o'clock, and |some one proposed a game of “crap.” The proposition was favorably received by the boys and four of them went into the game, There were four cents in the “‘pot,” when Robert Bar- ten made a “pass.” He claimed that he had won the “pot” and pocketed the four cents. His companions charged him with cheating. He resented the insult by striking Daniel Webster with his fist. Daniel was not large enough to stand up to his antagonist and could only use words in asserting his right, which he did to such effect that Barton got excited and, with a threat, drew a loaded revolver from his pocket. He cocked the weapon aud would have taken Webster's life had not fied to a corner store. Just as the crowd col- lected Policeman Boland came along and ar- rested Barton. When the case of concealed weapons against Barton was called in the Police Court this morning the boy's counsel, Lawyer Bacon, asked for a postponement on the ground that he had witnesses fo prove that the boy had just received the weapon from another boy to whom he had loaned money. ‘The judge told him that such proof would do the boy no good, as the court intended, if pos- sible, to prevent not only the carrying of weapons, but also the handling of them by per- sons who are liable to kill some innocent per- son. The court then heard the Lon’ of the prose- cution and imposed a fine of $50 or 90 days. Barton was also tried on a chi of assault. He said thas yesterday was the it time he had ever carried a pistol, The judge told him that when he had no pis- tol he did not get in trouble, but as soon as he was armed he was ready for a fight. He was given sixth months for the assault, ———aaa GEORGETOWN, A Bap Sreeer.—Residents in the county and other persons who have to travel over 32d street from the corporation limits to W street com- plain bitterly of the —— condition of this portion of the street.
