NAM SUBURBAN STREETS. The Plan Proposed by Engineer Howell to Capt. Kossell. During Capt. Symons’ administration as as- Sistant to the engineer commissioner he de- vised a plan for designating the streets north of the Boundary by giving them the names of some of the principal cities of the United States, commencing with Albany and ending with Zanesville. The recent addition of new subdivisions has completely exhausted these Bames, and now the question arises what names are to be given toadditional streets. Engineer Howell has given the matter considerable study, and yesterday submitted the following letter to Capt. ossell upon the subject: “Considering the increasing number of suburban subdivisions, especially in the north- ‘west section of the city, the question of names for the new suburban streets has become a question of greater importance than ever and it has occurred to me a more desirable system than that adopted of naming the east and west streets after the principal cities and rivers and lakes can be adopted. At present the city series, beginning with Albany and ending with Zanesville. has been exhausted in the north- west and we now take up the lakes, rivers and series, beginning with Albemarle. Now I respectiully submit for vour approval the following system: Cull A street North First avenue, then W street north will be 22d avenue, omitting J as is done in the city; then Albany street will be 23d avenue, Baltimore street 4th enue, and so on north, adopting the same yle for the east and west streets south. Leaving the north and south streets as they are the numbers can be continued in each di- rection from the Capitol to the District line, and we can tell with ease just bow many blocks such a street is frum the Capitol or from any intermediate streets, and we will be relieved of the present long names and the contusion that may result from having two systems, one of cities and one of lakes, rivers and sounds. The diagonal avenues can remain as at present and continue to be named after the states. The present names adopted, such as Albauy, Balti- more, &c.. can be used for the piace streets, east and west and north and south, the place streets coming in regular alphabetical order, east and west and north andsouth. This change need not take place now within the city limits, but the suburban streets can follow this system Without interfering with the present city plan, aud if future need requires it the east and West city streets could be changed also.” = - DISTRICT SUNDAY LAW. Program of the Sabbath Reform Con- . ¥ention to Meet Here This Week. The American Sabbath union, third district, will hold a Sabbath reform convention at Foundry M.E. churchenext Thursday and Fri- day, The leading purpose of the convention isto urge upon Congress the request of the Commissioners for a Sunday law for the Dis- trict of Columbia, The first session of the convention will be held Thursday evening at 7:30 o'clock. On Friday there will be three sessions, one at 10 a.m.. one at 2 p.m. and one at7:30 p.m. The following is the program of exercises: Thursday evening—Hon. Nelson Dingley, 3LC., of Maine, third vice president, in the PETER JACKSON IS HERE. He Talks About His Coming Fight With Sullivan, Peter Jackson, the champion pugilist of Aus- tralia, arrived on the White Star line steamer Adriatic Saturday evening after an unusually rough passage. He was accompanied by his trainers, Sam Fitzpatrick and William Naugh- ton. Jackson looks well and feels finer than silk, as he expresses it. He was dressed in the very latest English style. In his cravat shone a magnificent pin of diamond and rubies, which Lord Lonsdale presented to him after he defeated Jem Smith at the Pelican club. “England is a great place,” said Jackson. “I am perfectly willing to meet Sullivan for a purse of 315,000, which I am informed the Califor- nia athletic club will offer,” “You have not heard, then, that Sullivan demands @ $25,000 purse, all to go to the win- ner “No, and I am considerably surprised, for the amount mentioned is large enough us far as I am concerned. If I lose I don’t want one cent. I would like to have it understood that I have uot challenged Suilivan. “I have done nothing to bring about this match, The California athletic club has had all to do this far in the matter. I will repeat, to make my position plain, that I am perfect}; willing to meet John L. Sullivan in a finis contest, the gloves to be mutually agreed upon, before the California athletic club, for a purse of $15.000 or more.” Jackson will open at a Brooklyn theater to- night and will spar with Jack Ashton every night this week excepting Wednesday evening, when he will be given a reception in Boston. = ar a EXHIBITING READING STOCK. The Anti-Corbin_ Faction to Display 400,000 Shares in Court. When the anti-Corbin people appear in court again in reference to the suit of the stock holders to regain contro! of the Reading railroad, it is stated that they will be prepared to exhibit to the court stock of the company amounting to a majority of the total issue. This will be done for the purpose of convincing the court that it is the will of the stock holders to resume contol of the road. An exhibit of 400,000 shares of Reading stock, worth 5,000,000, will astonish the bears and a temporary corner in the market might ensue.

Judge Miller, of the Police Court, has adopted a new rule that will work to the interest of the prisoners. Hereafter the dock cases will be heard first and the prisoners who are convicted will be sent away as speedily as possi- ble in order that they may get something to eat before night after spending several hours in prison. Judge Miller smd yesterday that hereafter he would open court in the morning at 5:45 o'clock and proceed until all the prisoners in the dock are tried and disposed of. If that is done it will either ing the team was struck by an express train and Kitzinger was instantly killed. Walker jumped just in time to escape injury.

I have been master of a vessel for twenty years, but I will haul down the colors I have been sailing under.” This stirring announcement was made by Capt. Amsburg of the brig Jennie Harkness in the United States court in Philadelphia yester- day when Commissioner Edmunds discharged the ten sailors who were accused of setting the ship on fire on July 20, 1889, in the harbor of Manilla. W.Amsburg. the first mate, admitted being in the hold smoking a cigar on the day of the fire while the men were loading sugar. Commissioner Edmunds was not satistied that the vessel was set on fire; he thought there was a probability that it might have been acci- dental, He said the guilty man was in the dock, but the testimony was not sufficient to hold’ any of the men and he, therefore, dis- charged them from custody. toe —— Cora May Morris Acquitted.

The judge said that once in a while the Maria is te and the prisoners are not at court in time, The new arrangement, the judge thought, Would assist the officers. They can have their cases tried early aud then return to their duty or homes, Mr. Dumont said he was glad the new rule had been established, as he was in court at 8 o'clock every morning ready for busine: Judge Miller said the witnesses in the United States cases could be summoned to appear a littl Jater in the day, probably 10 o'clock. and then there would be as little inconvience as possible. He said he did not waut the new rule to operate asa hardship on the police and spoke of the men on dog watch i, the morning. A policeman said that if the old rule of per- mitting officers on dog watch to go home and get their breakfast before going to court was again established there would be no cause for complaint. ees Mr. Fowler’s Narrow Escape. Mr. Fowler, the bicyclist, who had a most Miraculous escape Saturday after a collision with a horse and wagon on F street Saturday, saving himself from injury by clinging to the shafts of the wagon while the house was run- ning away, says the horse was not running away when the collision occurred. The horse was being driven rapidly around the 10th street corner and along F street, on the left-hand side of the road. The wagon turned the corner so rapidiy that, Mr. Fowier says. he bad not time to get out of the way and had to let his Dieycle go and save himself in the manner described. After the horse slacked up aud he let go his hold, dropping to the ground, the driver of the wagon drove away without stop- ing to see what damage he had done.
