Some Legal Points That May Upset Last Week’s Scheming. Cutcaao, Nov. 18.—Speaking of the coming contest between the players’ brotherhood and the {national league, « local paper says: A little information as to the legal status of the league's reservations and also of contracts signed by base ball players may be valuablo in this connection. There 1s probably no man in the United States who is better qualified to give the de- sired erfompad than Barr Loren Mer organi ion org: ion in 1 an pei nane Sea club in an, and 1855.” ae jacas is now a@ resident Chicago. ~ ve with him about ball — a reporter asked if he thought reserve could hold the players they v le said: “They bn hold men, even if under contract, and unless the players are di to carry out contracts docu- ments are not worth the paper they are written on. Ihad some experience in that line and speak from the record.” Mr. Lucas referred to the action of the United —— teed — of southern Ohio Loren in dissolving the temporary injunction grante the St. Louis union psesed club against Pitcher Tony Mullane, now with Cincinnati but then with Toledo, on the ground that a man could not be deprived from earning his living. And Mullane broke a contract with.the St. Louis Unions and deserted to Toledo. Another gentleman said: “If the league has any legal claim on its men it must be established by means of individual damage suits.” Another interesting case in point was cited. In 1888 Umpire Decker, after being signed and guar- anteed against removal for an entire season, was “released,” He sued the league in the Pittsburg courts for his ‘y and the court decided that the national league had no legal existence. A DENIAL. Battrmonr, Mp., Nov. 18.—-Matthew Kilroy, the Baltimore pitcher, arrived here today. He denied that he signed with the Boston brother- hood club and says he will play with the Baltimores next season. —$————_ FOUR BEAUTIFUL SHIPS. Admiral Walker’s Squadron Sails Grandly Down to the Sea. New Yon, Nov. 18.—The first squadron of the new navy left this port precisely at noon today for a cruise in foreign waters that will extend for a period of one year. The squadron was composed of four new entirely completed and equipped ships of war, built wholly of American rolled steel—the Chicago, Boston, Atl and Yorktown. ‘They presented a pretty sight as they steamed out of the harbor and down the bay through the narrows on their way to sea, a space of a few ship's lengths only between them. Acting Rear Admiral Walker was in command and his pennant was flying from the Chicago. The United States man-of-war Dolphin, with Secretary Tracy on board, accompanied the squadron down the bay. As the fleet went by the forts in the harbor it was royally saluted and the guns of the vessels thundered back a response. The weather was fine. The ships are going abroad for the double purpose of showing foreigners that the United States have some war ships and also for exercising the offi- cers and men in the evolutions of a squadron. No definite program has been arranged for the trip. The squadron will be governed entirely by occasional orders from the Navy department. The squadron will touch at Boston, where it will remain a week. From there it goes to Lisbon, Portugal, touching possibly at the Azores. > FOREIGN NEWS. BAKER'S STRIKE.

Lusk’s Annual Re- port. WATER MAINS AND NEW SEWERS WHICH NE THINKS SHOULD BE LAID—SUGGESTIONS ADOUT THE COST OF INCREASING THE WATER SUPTLY —STREET LIGHTING, Capt. Lusk’s annual report, which has been submitted to Major Raymond, Engineer Com- missioner, contains a number of recommenda- tions. The report covers the operations of the following-named branches of the engineer de- partment: The water, sewer and street-light- | sewer division aggregate $354,833, ing divisions, pumps and wells, the survey of the district, the office of the inspector of asphalt and cements and the harbor front. THE WATER DEPARTMENT. Daring the year a total length of 67,932 feet of cast-iron pipe was laid, varying in size from 3 | to 24 inches in diameter, exceeding the number of feet laidjjin any year since 1872. There are 28,045 houses in ‘ise District supplied with Potomac water and 4,954 miscellaneous water takers. Tho estimates for the water depart- — the next fiscal year aggregate €234,- The emtimated revenues for the year 1890, amount to $250,000, and for 1891, . $260,000. The total collections’ for 1989 were $246,454.13 and the refundments amounted to 1.209.69. He recommends that one-half of the cost of tho new main on i4th street, amounting to $27.- 542.78, be charged against the revenues for the beng year and the other half against those of L. THE SINKING FUND CHARGES, After referring to the heavy drain on the revenues of the water department to meet the fixed charges on account of interest and sink- ing fund the report says: “Means of freeing the water fund from this load, ay or entirely, have been suggested as follows: First. That the United States shall assume the entire cost of increasing the water supply. Second. That the United States shall abolish or lessen the interest charges on account of increasing the water supply. Third. That the genral taxes shall beara ® portion of the whole of these fixed charges and that the water rents for domestic purposes shall be abolished, the water main taxes and vents for business purposes being credited to the general fund. _ There seems to be a strong public sentiment in favor of the first or the third of the above measures, and action should undoubtedly be taken to test the willingness of Congress to Provide the corresponding legisiation.” METERS, In reference to meters the report says: “As a general rule, a reduction of water rent has been found to follow the introduction of meters. The contrary is the result in very few instances, The increase in the number of meters in service renders legislation necessary to protect the District from any attempt to make fraudulent use of Potomac water by causing the flow to pass around the meter with- our permission from proper authority. Pro- visions similar to those in force concerning gas meters would have the needed effect.” EXTENSION OF DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM, The lines of new supply mains proposed in last year’s report, Capt. Lusk says, must be modified on account of the laying of the 48- inch main, which was not then foreseen, A 24- inch pipe should be laid from New Jersey avenue castward along L street to maintain the pressures in the northeastern section of the city. Asthe area served by the stand pipe in- creases a supply main of larger diameter must be laid through the high ground supplied. The stand pipe itself may have to be moved in order notto bein the way of the extension of the streets; and it may possibly require an addi- tion to its height in order to give an increase of pressures, The supply main to Anacostia should also be laid as soon as possible. These improvements cannot be undertaken during the current year, PETITIONS FOR MAINS, In reference to petitions for service mains the report says: ‘The Commissioners are in- trusted by Congress with the power of order- ing the construction of pavements and sewers where they are necessary for the public safety, comfort or health. Thegrant of like power with respect to water mains would seem to be most natural and reasonable, aud would put an end to a condition of affairs which yearly works injustice to thousands of citizens and adds to the expense of laying mains without any cor- eters | benetit. The repeal of the existing law should be pushed in the interest of good administration.” GAS MAINS. After referring to the operations of the street lighting division Capt. Lusk remarks: “It is believed that the District Commissioners should have some control over the size of gas mains to be laid in the streets, and legislation should be sought which would secure this control, Furthermore no main of this kind should be permitted to be laid without a definite location of the same, approved by the Commissioners before the laying is authorized.” In reference to clectrie lighting the report says the total number of lamps to be provided for in the next appropriation should therefore be not less than 203, to maintain which, with the necessary inspection, will require £46,000. MAIN AND PIPE SEWERS. The appropriation for the year 1889 was $70,000 and the construction for the year ag- gregated 39,185.2 lineal feet of ‘sewer, varying in size from 6-inch to the 3-foot by 4.5-foot egg- shaped section, The uppropriation for the enr- rent year 1s $90,000. This, the report says, should be increased for the coming year and estimates are presented aggregating ©127,860. ‘The items making up this estimate are given below: Pennsylvania avenue between 17th and 1th streets, $4,675; L streot northeast, 3d and Boundary, 216,485; K street northwest, 4th and New Jersey avenue, $12,300; 14th strect south- cast from river northward, $15,000; 9th street southeast from river northward to N street, 24,000; improving Boundary sewer outlet, in- cluding condemnation of right of way, $15,000; terra cotta pipe sewers, £50,000; receiving basins, #10,000; total, $127,860, ‘The sewer proposed for Pennsylvania avenue between 17th and 18th streets northwest is to replace an existing sewer which is deficient both in size and grade. The sewer proposed for L street northeast and that for Lith strect southeast will provide trunk lines of drainage for rapidly developing areas of the city, ‘That proposed for K street northwest will re- lieve overcharged sewers on 3d and 4th streets, That on 9th street southeast will extend the sewer on the street named to deep water in the Eastern branch, The east boundary sewer now discharges into water course situated partly upon private property. It is proposed to deepen and straighten the channel of this stream and to acquire possession of a strip of land of sufficient width from the outlet of the sewer to the Eastern branch, SUBURBAN SEWERS, Under the appropriation of $30,000 there was constructed a total length of 11,095.22 feet of sewer varying in size from 12-inch pipe to a concrete sewer 7.64 feet in diameter. For the coming year there is recommended an uppro- priation of $86,850, to be expended as explained below: Extension of sewer on Bladensburg road, 3,850; extension of sewer on line of 11th street northeast, #15,000; extension of sewer in Eck- ington valley, $15,000; construction of sewer on Lincoln avenue, $3,000; construction of sewer on 14th-street road, $15,000; extension of sewer in Rock Creek valley, $10,000; extension of Anacostia main sewer, $7,000; construction of pipe sewers, $15,000. “Total, $86,450. The proposed sewer on the Bladensburg road is intended to carry drainage which now flows through the deep ravine on the west side | of that road, The sewer proposed to extend northward from Boundary and Lith street northeast will provide for drainage and sewage which now produce a nuisance in the open | stream in the vicinity. Lincoln avenue and a ! portion of R street eastward from that avenue | are to be drained by the sewer along the latter. ‘The sewer on 14th street road is intended to provide for the surface drainage of the greater part of Mount Pleasant, and will divert storm water which sometimes overcharges the suwer on Sth street west, Pics en be the ccm main sewer required as a preliminary e improve- ment of Adams and Jackson streets, se It is proposed to push the Rock creek valley intercepting sewer as far as usetts ave- nue extended, Capt. Lusk recommends the appropriation of 93,000 for gauging the storm discharges of some of the more important sewers, cotem | oasly with ‘obeervaaions of the rain fall Over the respective areas ed. STREET SWEEPING AND TRE SEWERS, “The present method of sweeping the streets,” the report says, ‘might be modified with great advantage to the sewers and to the streets themselves, As now latter are never clean except Memeo tely after they are swept. Dirt is most <ouwplcaons and unsightly on the smooth stitution has never had an appropriation ard has been in active operation since 1877, _ droppings and other filth into the sewer inlets, greatly mult the work of cle: them and fre rise to offensive in spite of re) and flushing, much better condition than at present tion be paid to keeping them fairly stead of giving them a sweeping once at the most. and neglecting them dur- whole period of daylight.

The streets of Veehincton are too beautifal to be allowed to prow dirtier and dirtier with the advancing jours of each day.” The estimates for the SURVEY OF THE DISTRICT. In regard to the survey of the District the repcrt says: “The superintendent of the coast and geodetic survey estimates that $10,000 will complete the ject as originally contemplated and enable ae i wong he meds Spon that portion of the old District which was ro- ceded to the state of Virginia. It is highly de- sirable that the latter should be entered upon and completed as soon as possible.” ——__—_ WASHINGTON NEWS AND GOSSIP. Anmy Oxpers.—First Lieut. Chas, J. T.

WHY KUNZE CHANGED HIS NAME, The Defense Making a Determined Ef- fort in the Cronin Case. Cuicaco, Nov. 18.—The first witness in the Cronin case today was Frederick J. Squibb, the stenographer, who was on the stand Saturday and who gave testimony touching certain contradictions in the evidence of Frank Scanlan and others as given before the coroner's jury and before the court in the pending trial. The witness this morning testi- fied as to certain questions and answers in the examination of ‘Major Sampson touching his acquaintance with Coughlin. The matters were immaterial, except as they related to the eredi- bility of Sampsou. The next witness was Peter Koch, a worker in hard wood. He testified that he lived in Lake View near the Carlson college, He had known Kunze about five years. Kunze worked for him in 1886 and 1887. He boarded with the witness for seven weeks previous to about the 8th or lith of May last. The witness hada talk with Thomas Lynch, the distiller, imregard to Kunze in April. . ; ‘The prosecution objected to the introduction of this conversation, Mr. Forrest—We have got to show why John Kunze changed his name; why he stated he ex- pected to be arrested, and all about the con- nection between him and Coughlin and the Lynch distillery. Thomas Lynch I will put on the witness stand tomorrow, Mr, Hynes—I submit it is not competent to show it in this way. Mr. Forrest—What I propose to show now is the talk about Kunze at the time of the explo- sion of the bomb at the distillery last year; that Thomas Lynch introduced him to Cough- lin, and he and Conghlin together went first to Coughlin’s house and walked up Lincoln avenue, and then he saw the man that was walking with Coughlin; that he went up to his house; that Coughlin waited up and around that house for the purpose of mecting Kunze; that he met — Kunze at that house; that he gave him, in the presence of this man, the papers; delivered them to Thomas Lynch: Thomas Lynch has the papers; that,Kunze told him he had another paper; the papers were supposed to come from the whisky trust; that Lynch wanted to get that paper, and that the next day Lynch and Coughlin went up to this hous to seo Kunze; that they saw Kunze; that the next day this man drove Kunze out of his house and told Kunze there was a man out there going toarrest him; that Kunze left and went to the South Side; that Coughlin kept following him; that this man wassent by Capt. Schuettler to tell Kunze that he wanted him to come in and surrender himsclf in the Cronin case; that he told Kunze he was about to be arrested; that again he met Capt. Schuettler, and Schuettler offered him $20 to go and point out Kunze; then I will put Mr. Lynch on the stand tomor- row and he will explain why Kunze and Cough- lin went to Peoria together. ‘The witness then told in detail the story above outlined by Mr. Forrest. He said that Kunze gotinto alittle trouble around his house and that the keeperf of little dry goods shop threatened to have him arrested. For this rea- son Kunze left his house and changed his name, —— ee BALTIMORE AND OHIO. The Road Shows a Handsome Surplus Over All Expenses.

Was it Repealed by the Enabling Act Admitting the New States. It is claimed by some persons that the en- abling act admitting the new states into the Union repealed the pre-emption law. It is also said that Congress intended only to repeal tho eighth section of tho law, but instead re- pealed the entire law. In the event that this isthe true situation the rights of all pre- empters who have not made final proof are affected. A number of inquiries have beon made at the general land office in regard ie this matter. Commissioner Groff, however, bas not examined the subject and therefore de- clines to expresg anopinion. He will probably be called upon to pass upon the matter offi- cially. Merely a Technical Error. A Sra reporter asked Representative Hans- brough this morning what he thought would come of the muddle over the unintentional re- peal of the pre-emption law by the wording of the act admitting the new states, “I do not know about it,” he said, “butI think no serious harm can come of it. It is merely a technical error that will either not be taken account of by the department or will be corrected at once when Congress meets. I do not think there can be any delay in an error of that sort,” Work on the New Observatory.

William Carroll, colored, got drunk Saturday night and his wife took him toward home. Be- fore arriving there PolicemanHarrover arrested him for disorderly conduct. Carroll had enough bad liquor in him to make him troublesome, and instead of going peaceably with the officer he fell to the pavement. Another colored man named Edward Fletcher interfered with the arrest and attempted to prevent the officer from taking the prisoner to the station. In doing so he committed an assault upon the officer, Both men were finally arrested and they wore released on collateral. Judge Miller lectured Fletcher this morning on his conduct in interfering with the officer, and told him that it would not be tolerated.

It lasted but afew seconds, making the windows rattle. In South Washington the supposed shock was felt. Many colored persons heard the rattling of the windowsand felt the jarring of their houses to such an extent that they left the premises. The shock was felt very distinctly at the club house near the Big Fails, also in the vicinity of Silver Spring. The shock was ac- companied by a noise as though an explosion had occurred somewhere and had shaken the earth. The report of what appeared to be an explosion was heard by a great many persons, but a majority only heard the windows rattle and felt their houses shake. —_$—»—__ The Boys’ and Girls’ National Home and Employment Association. To the Editor of Tae Evexrxe Sran: This association enters upon its fifth year with renewed vigor. President Hogeland has gathered about him an earnest ret of men that mean business, The incorporation of the asso- ciation will be accomplished in a few days and the work of intercepting the growth of the tramp element,so dangerous tothe peace of the community, will be pushed until it will bea matter of history to find a boy or young man wandering from town to town, beating his way on railroads, stealing from farm houses and growing up into a criminal. This work is national in its character and calls for concerted action among all the states, It aims to rid this city of the necessity of say- ing to the scores of boys who land here “move on,” or of paying their fares to places trom whence they come, only helping them so much to a life ot confirmed lawlessness. The association hopes to rid the jail of the twenty-five youngsters taking their first and second lessons from older and more mature law breakers down there. It aims to help on the work of procuring homes for all neglected boys and girls as soon as they are in a condi- tion tobe placed in them, and procure tho enactment of laws in all parts of the country for the protection of children abused by thoso who ought to protect them, and it is not only a matter of benevolence to support the work, but it must be done in self defense. The boy loafer of today may be the murderer of a policeman tomorrow. The motto of the asso- ciation is ‘Prevention is better than cure,” It decals with those whose ways tend toward law- lessnees, It comes in conflict with no organ- ized charity. ‘The president of the board of the home school is one of its active managers, and all of them are gentlemen whose exertions in various benevolent lines is a matter of pub- lic record.

The young colored women in southeast Wash- ington have not yet forgotten the murder of Mrs. Lee by her husband, Richard Lee, alias “Dick Sparrow,” who was executed for the crime, and instead of taking such desperate chances they now appeal to the police and do not attempt to settle their own domestic troubles when their lives are at stake. Lust night near 7thand L streets southeast there came near being another murder similar to the crime committed by Lee. Policemen Bland- ford and Parker were on their beat, when a young colored woman named Watkins met them and complained that her husband, Robert I, Watkins. was going to kill her. She told the officers that her husband had a “‘seven- shooter” and she was afraid that he would carry his threats into execution. The officers started m pursuit of the dangerous man and in attempting to escape he threw the pistol away, The officers recovered the pistol and it proved to be a “seven-shooter,” and every chamber loaded.
