THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D. C., FRIDAY, cITY AND_ DISTRICT. © A recently published work on “The Artof Advertising” says: “A point which will afford reliable information as to the value of a publi- eation as an advertising medium is the close- ness with which the publisher adheres to his advertising rates.” Tue Star invariably holds to its rates; and, what is of greater importance to the advertiser, it*charges everybody the same Brice for the same service. This few papers do! A DISGRACE TO THE CITY. The Reeking Open Sewer Known as the James Creek Canal. 398 DANGEROUS CHARACTER—UNSUCCESSFUL EF- FORTS TO SUPPRESS THE NUISANCE—THE CANAL SHOULD BE ARCUED OVER AND THE SAND BOATS SEEK OTHER LANDING PLACES. “There has not been a case of drowning in he old James creek canal for several months.” said Lieut. Vernon of the South Washington Police station toa Stan reporter this morning. “This is rather unusual for the old death trap, but it is true nevertheless. There was atime when every day or two some one fell into the canal, which is one of the most unsightly and filthy places in the cit Below the arch at G street the stench in the summer time is almost unbearable and the health of the residents along the line of the canal is endangered.” THE HEALTH OFFICER'S EMPHATIC CONDEMNA- Tiox. Kealth Officer Townshend made an inspec- tion of the canal two years ago and called the attention of the Commissioners to it in a letter as follows: ; “I desire to ask if it is not possible to secure action looking to the abatement of that griev- ous nuisance known to the citizens of Wash- ington as the James Cree i. This reek- ing open sewer, with its ge floating back and forth with the tides. is a disgrace to the city which it has long enough endured. A con- tinuatien of the good work by arching it over from where it was left off to where it empties into the channel of the tern Branch of the Yotomac would be the most important step which could be taken in the interests of the health and lives of the large population of South Washington. I believe the matter has been considered by the engineer department of the city, as well as other engineer officers of the army. I hope that agitation of this subject will be maintained until the good work is ac- complished. THE OPEN CANAL runs from G street south to the Eastern branch at the east wall of the Washington barracks, formerly the arsenal. Three bridges cross the canal at K, Mand N streets. The bridge that crosses it at K street was constructed at the ex- = of the citizens through the efforts of Mr. Phil Dwyer, and the other two were paid for by the District. m the end of the arch at G street to the branch the canal is entirely un- covered and unprotected. except at the bridges, and there is a rail on either side of the bridge and two of the structures are lighted by gas lamps. The canal is used for draining the sew- erstrom the northeastern section of the city and isa part of what was once Tiber creek. ‘The water in the canal is from_five to ten feet deep. The water is always muddy and FULL OF FILTH PROM THE SEWER: Sand boats froma down the river and up the Eastern Branch lind along the shores of the canal where sand yards are loceted. Nearly all of the sand that reaches thecity by water is landed there. The District owns a strip of 2. feet of ground on cith+: side of the stream, at does not coilect on» cent of revenue from ft The District property yard or “sand lot.” as it is eailed. is located over the arched por- tion of the canal, and the District obtains sev- eral thousand loads of sand from it eve r. THE CANAL SHOULD BE ARCHED OV Several years azo Congress was appealed to to do something with the old was done, although Maj. Hains suggested a remedy for the nuisance. The citizens and property owners the vicinity of the ob- jectionable stream desirous of having an arch constructed over it,so that that part of the city may be improved and the unsightly gap that divides the two sections closed up. The citizens say that should the canal be arched there is plenty of spare ground along the Eastern Branch for the establishment of sand yards and wharves and the haul through the ity would not be a much longer one tuan it now is. I,but nothing in THE SAND ToATS. There is always a long fleet of sand boats along the canal wells. They are boats that could hardly be used for any other purpose. The boats are duilt to carry many cart loads of — sand and are consequently constructed of heavy material Two colored men are usually in charge of a boat and sometimes the number is inereased to three. A cabin in one end of the scows afford ample sleeping room for three persons. Long poles and sometimes a sail is the propelling power and it is wonderful that -_ men are able to make as good time as they jo. Two men often leave the sand yards in the afternoon and go down the river or up the branch and return with a full load of sand by the next morning. ‘The business is a profitable one to the boat owners, but the men who per- form the work do not receive large salaries. INS PESTS IN THE HOUSE. A Scientist Tells How to Make War on Cockroaches. Ina bulletin just issued by the division of entomology, Department of Agriculture, Dr. C. V. Riley, writing of insect pests of the house- hold, after describing various species of cock- roaches, says: In the latitude of Washington and further south the croton bug eats ever: thing which contains paste, and consequently wall paper, photographs and especially certain kinds of cloth book bindings suffer severely from their attacks. In a recent number of “Insect Life” will be found an account of severe injury done to certain of the important files in the Treasury Department in Washington, the bindings of many important public documents being distigured and destroyed. In the office of the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey they have become an intolerable nuisance by eating off the surface and particularly the blue and red paint from drawings of important maps. But I need no* elaborate farther upon the damage which they do. How to kill them and prevent this damage is tho question. Without condemning other useful measures or remedies like borax I would repeat here what I have already urged in these columns, viz, that in the free and persistent use of Cali- fornia buhach or some other fresh and reliable brand of pyrethrum or Persian insect powder We have the most satisfactory means of dealing with this and the other roaches mentioned. Just before nightfall go into the infested rooms and puff it into all crevices, under base- boards, into the drawers and cracks of old fur- niture—in fact, wherever there 1s a crack—and in the morning the floor will be covered with dead and dying or demoralized and paralyzed roaches, which may easily be swept up or otly wise collected and burned. With cleanlin and persistency in these methods the pest may be substantially driven out of a house and should never be allowed to get full possession by immigrants from without. For no other insect have so many quack remedies been urged and are so many news- Paper remedies published. Many of them have their good points, but the majority are worth- Jess. In fact, rather than put faith in half of those which have been published it were better to rely on the recipe which 'T. A. Janvier gives in bis charming article on **Mexican Supersti- tious and Folk-lore,” published in a recent mumber of Scribner's Magazine, as current among the Mexicians: To get rid of cock- Foaches—Catch three aud put them in a bottle, aud so carry them to where two roads cross. Here hoid the bottle upside down and as they fail out repeat aloud three credos. Then all the coachroaches in the house from which these three came will go awa: A Shoe Blacking Institute. The Central Shoe Biacking Institute in Ber- lin undertakes to clean boots and shoes for its clients ag often as required between 6 am. and %p.m. for monthly payments atthe rate of fifty cents a month for men and thirty-five ceuts for omen.

The republicans thought this was done to win the German-American vote. ° Dilatory tavtics were adopted by the republicans, some of whom ran out of the state house to leave the assembly without a quorum with the sheriff chasing them. Speaker Miller (democrat) ex- pounded Speaker Reed's tactics, counting ab- sent members in the negative. After great @onfusion the house adjourned, CAPITOL GLEANINGS, The Montana Contest in the Senate— Notes From Committee Rooms, Etc. ‘There is every probability now that demo- cratic Senators will indulge in a little filibuster- ing on the Montana senatorial contest. The probability springs out of the fact that leading democrats have decided to exhaust every avail- able artifice to prevent the seating of Sanders and Power, the republican contestants. For two or three weeks past some of the shrewdest politicians on the minority side have been in- sisting that it was good democratic politics to make as much noise as possible over the mat- ter, and their colleagues are just waking up to that view. SONS OF THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION. Representative McAdoo, of New Jersey, yes- terday introduced in the House a copy of the Senate bill to incorporate the Society of the Sons of the American Revolution, whose object it shall be to perpetuate the memory and spirit of the men who achieved American indepen- dence by the encouragement of historical re- search in relation to the revolution and the publication of its results, &c. SALARIES OF RAILWAY MAIL CLERKS. Mr. Cheadle (Ind.) introduced in the House yesterday a bill to reclassify and fix the salaries of railway mail clerks. The bill provides for di ng these clerks into seven classes and their salaries as follows: Class 1, $800; class 2, $950; class 3, $1,050; class 4, $1,200; 98 5, $1,400; class 6, $1,500, and class 7, =1,500. In the first class the Postmaster Gen- eral is given the power to fix the salary of cach [re according to the amount of work done, ut he shall not in any case allow a higher salary than $800 per annum. Provision is made 80 that the terms of this bill shall not include | such postal clerks of the classes from 2 and including 5 as are or may be detailed for clerical duty in the Post Office Department or in any of the offices of division superintendents, Provision is made prohibiting the promotion } of persons to class 6 except those designated as | chief ‘clerks of two or more lines and no per- sons are to be promoted to class 7 except those designated as chief clerks of divisions, | NoTES. Congressman L. C. Houk of Tennessee was nominated for Congress yesterday for his sev- enth term. ‘There was no opposition. Con- gressman Taylor was renuminated, but a fac- tion bolted and nominated ex-Congressman Butler. s | RACING ON THE WIRES. i The Telegraphers’ Tournament Yester- | day in New York. Fifty fast telograph operators from all parts of the country gathered in Hardman Hall in New York yesterday afternoon to take part in the first telegraphing tournament that has | been held in the country for several years. Prize money aggregating $720 had been made up by the Western Union and Postal com- panies, the Associated Press and the United Press, Thomas A. Edison, Andrew Carnegie | and a few others. This was to be divided be- | tween the operators in four different classes, who should send in five minutes the most words from acertain speech made by Chaun- cey M. Depew. The prizes were for quantity | only. Quality didn’t count, except that the | matter sent had to be readable at the other | end of the wire. | A small table at the front of the stage had half a dozen different sorts of telegraphic keys upon it, to suit the different tastes of the con- | testants. The wires ran from it to a room in | the rear, where the judges were stationed. They were not supposed to know who was send- ing. Besides this the wires ran to a dozen dif- ferent sounders scattered through the hall, so that every oue who was an operator could tell | whether the contestant was sending fairly or not. The official awards were based. upon the actual number of words sent. Beside this | there was a speed indicating machine that re- | corded on a dial the exact number of impulses | sent over the wire by each contestant. It num- bered the ticks, This was not official, however. OPENING ADDRESS BY WIRE. The hall was filled, at least haif with women, | when Fred Catlin sat down at the table and | began to rattle the key, Ina minute most of the audience was laughing heartily. The un- | iitiated were mystified, but all the operators | knew that the manager was making the open- ing address by wire. He pegged away patiently tor fifteen minutes, with occasional interrup- tions for laughter and applause. He told the ors that the telegraph key was just about est institution in the universe and that its dignity and worth were becoming each year more appreciated by the general public. This tournament, he said, would be but the first of many in different parts of the country, and in 1892 or 1893 he promised there would bea great international tournament, THE CONTEST. The women’s class was the first on the pro- gram and after fourteen of them had com- peted the prizes were announced as follo' First, £50 to Miss Kitty Stephenson; second, 340 to Miss Dennis; third, #20 to Miss Vanse- low. Special prize for best sending, $25 to Miss Froschel. Then came the old-timers, There were five of them. Two had not worked a key for twenty years. All of them had been operators for tweity years. The average in sending by | these contestants in this class was far above the average. and A.S. Ayres, who carried away the first prize of $50 and the special prize of $25 for the most finished and accurate sending, did re ably clever work. ‘Then came th There were four- teen of them, and it was deemed expedient to split up the list and give the evening andiences an opportunity to judge of the capabilities of the contestants. Eight young men played the key in the afternoon and six worked it at night. There were so many good pieces of work that the judges were uncertain as to the definition of merit. It was finally decided to have the four gentlemen, or as many as desired to contest, send over again after the other contests were over. It was then 11 o'clock. There were twenty-four contestants in the concluding competi- tion. 500 words or over in the contest of 1885. ‘The contest did not end until after midnight, ‘Then the struggle between the cracks of class A was to begin. The following was the early record A. J, Swan, 215 words; F. L. Catlin. 241 words: H. S. Wright, 203 words; H. D. Paulharaus, 215 words; W. L. Waugh, 229 words; J. P. Bradt, 224 words; W. Davis, 195 words; M. H. Toomey, 30 words, H. T. Panlhamus, the Western Union repre- sentative from Philadelphia, had hard luck in the afternoon session, He was looked upon as a probable winner of the first prize in class A, which was the highest possible honor. Alter sending about seventy-five words his key broke, or “stuck,” in the language of the operators, It took him fully forty seconds to change over to a new key, but the delay proved fatal. He sent thereafter at an average of fifty words a minute, but the untortunate loss of time spoiled his chances for the high prizes, His record for the tive minutes was 215 words. ‘The first prize in class A was captured by B. R. Pollock, jr., ot Hartford, the second by W. | M. Gibson of New York and the third by F. I. Kihm of New York. The United Press prize for good quality was won by W. L. Waugh of New York. ‘The winners in class B were Frank Catlin, first; W. L. Waugh, second; Frank English, third, nn The C. and O.

In the case of William Douglass Cross, con- victed a few weeks since in the Criminal Court of the murder of his wife, Hattie, on the Ist of October last, his counsel, Messrs, C. M. Smith and Joseph Shillington, yesterday filed a num- ber of affidavits in support of the motion for a new trial, Mary Watkins, in an affidavit, avers that when George Maier came in his mother’s store and spoke of the threats he heard made by 4 man toa woman on 7th street he denied knowing the parties, and the next morning he said he knew Cross well aud he was not the Party. She also swears that Maier made the same statement in the witness room March 28 in the presence of Ellenora Snowden and Susan Robinson, who also make affidavit to that effect. Fanny Hicks, who had lived with Cross, made affidavit that she never knew Cross to | have s pistol and that he was always of akindly ition L.. F. Clements made an affidavit that ho | heard the pistol shot, followed by a woman’ cries for help. Mary Marlow's affidavit is to the effect that in September she heard Hatt ‘ross say she was going to buy a pistol and shoot a girl, and later she saidit she had a pistol she would shoot Cross, — PAN-AMERICAN RECIPROCITY. Important Reports Submitted to the International American Conference. The International American conference yes- | terday afternoon adopted the report of the | committee on customs anion, which recom- mends that reciprocity treaties be negotiated between the several republics of the American | hemisphere, each making tariff concessions, 80 that the peculiar products of them all may be introduced free into the others. This report is in the same line of the amendment suggested by Mr. Blaine to the committee on ways and means of the House of Representatives, The conference also adopted the report of the committee on port dues. The committee recommended that all port dues be merged in a single one, to be known ag tonnage dues; that this be assessed upon the gross tonnage; that each government fix the rate of tonnage dues with due regard to the policy of the confer- ence, which is to favor and facilitate navig tion; that dues under unexpired contracts with private companies be excepted from the pro- ions of article 1, and that vessela of less than 25 tons, transports and vessels of war be exempt from tonnage dues, The Beh of the committee on tea | was discussed at length. The committee believes that commerce could be extended greatly by facilitating direct exchanges between the money markets of the countries represented in the conference, The merchants of the United States now importing goods from Sonth and Central America make these importations almost without exception through the use of English bankers’ credits, The committee does not think the governments themselves should afford financial facilities. The best means of remedying the existing difficulty, the commit- tee thinks, 18 by the passage by the United States of a law incorporating an international American bank with ample capital, with the privilege on the part of the citizens of the sev- eral countries in the conference to take shares in the bank prorata to their foreign com- merce. This bank should have all powers now enjoyed by national banks of the United States except the power to emit circulating notes, The conference did not conclude consideration of this subject before adjournment. RIOT IN VALENCIA, The Military Trying in Vain to Quell Anti-Carlists Mobs. The arrival of the Carlist leader, Marquis Cerrulbo, at Valencia yesterday was made the occasion of an anti-Carlist demonstration Thousands of anti-Carlists met at the station and followed the marquis to his hotel. They mashed many windows of the hotel and tried to set fire to the building, when a detachment of troops charged and dispersed the mob. Many persons were wounded. A mob of two thousand persons next invaded the Carlist club and set fire to the furniture. When the firemen came the mob tried to obstruct them. The mob then smashed and burned a carriage in the court yard. Another mob tried to burn a church, but was prevented by a detachment of troops. The troops have failed, however, to disperse the constantly gatheringyrowds. The latter have built two barricades in the streets. The military authorities have taken posses- sion of the city and the whole garrison is under arms. At midnight the rioting continued. The troops made several charges. Many persons were injured, and it is reported some have been killed, though orders were given to avoid bloodshed as long as possible. a The Wedding is Off. From the Chicago Herald. Society has not finished discussing the Thrift- Clark wedding that did not take place, and many different stories regarding the affair have been circulated. The facts, as learned from | an immediate friend and one of the invited | guests, are that Miss Maud Clark, who has an annual income of $10,000, on her return from Europe nearly a year ago stopped at Lima, Ohio, to visit friends. There she met young Thrift, who isa bank clerk. The pleasant ac- quaintance formed was continued after her re- | turn to Denver by means of correspondence. The lady, who is twenty-two years of age, was evidently smitten, as, when about three weeks |ago Thrift proposed’ marriage and demanded a reply by telegraph, the little word “yes” flashed over the wire to gladden the | heart of the Buckeye. He then telegraphed | back, naming Thursday as the time for the ceremony. While the undue haste rather dis- concerted Miss Clark, she consented. and an | elegant trousseau was prepared, invitations | ‘Thrift ar- rived in the city a day or two ago,and after the first interview with his intended the family and friends were startled by the announcement | that the affair was off. The only explanation Miss Maud would give when asked “what every | one would say” I don’t care what other | people think or say. We have discovered that | We are not suited to each other and think it better to part now than contract a marria; that could only lead to much unhappiness. Thrift has returned to his Ohio home. He did not make a public statement regarding his opinion of Colorado heiresses, = sor Ready-Made Essays.

From the Philadelphia Times, William and Mary White of 2020 Taney street were arraigned before Magistrate Kochersper- ! ger yesterday, charged with cruelty and ne- | glect to their children and Annie Dalligan, aged nine years, who lived with them. It was | in evidence that the couple were habitual | drunkards and that little Annie had been seen drank in their company on several occasions. | The child claimed that she was obliged to sleep | with a pig. It was also stated thut a shed in | the rear of the house was rented to a gang of | small boys, who were supplied with cigars, cigarettes and tobacco by Mr. and Mrs. White. | ‘The magistrate committed the couple to prison | in default of bail and remanded the children to the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to | Children, Highest of all in Leavening Power.—U.
