STANDING BY WASHINGTON. —_—.—_ Public-Spirited Citizens Whe Wish to Protect Lif Adorn the City and Re- move av Obstruction to Trade and ‘Travel—A Sample List of Names, -_ — ‘The petitions against grade crossings and the Atkinson bill have poured into Tax Stas office by the thousand and they continue to pour in. Iu very many cases the printed form has been cut out and pasted upon a slip of note, letter or foolscap paper and a number of signatures at- tached, so that the petitiong are of all sorts of shapes and sizes, and the mass of expressions of public opinion presents « formidable ap- pearance. Here all the adults of « family have signed, bere business man and his adult em- ployes. ‘Phen there are long lists containing signatures collected by volunteer circulatdrs of the petition. These voluuteers have been most numerous. of course, in South Washing- ton, but the other secfions have aot been lack- ing in public-spirited citizens who were ready 0 take a little trouble im the interest of hu- manity and good citizenship. One young lady who served as an enthusiastic canvasser in & part of East Washington collected several hun- dred names. Business men gave of their time to collect signatures, A number of store keep- ers Kept copies of the petition for signatures their counters. An important feature of this expression of opinion is ite voluntary character, and the large extent to which the signatures indicate a real decision and an act of Inbor, however slight, to give it expression. Meu have not been paid two cents a name. as in the case of the railroad’s petition to secure or invent sig- natares, and there is consequently no pecuniary inducement offered +o any one to pad the list with the names of dead men, or fictitious names ascribed to fictitious residences, or to forge names, or to secure proxy signatures, as where a head of a room was induced by the railroad canvasser to sign for the government employes under him. The petition has also been printed nd discussed in Tux Stan and the opportunity has been given to sign with a fuli understand- ing of what the act meant. This fact has pre- vented the obtaining of signatures under false pretenses, a frequent complaint on the part of signers to the railroad petitions. A number of the signers of the railroad pe- titions have signed the one prinféd in Tae Sran, Especially is this the case among the business men. Between one and two hundred signatures were obtained a good while ago by the railroad im favor of the Atkinson bill, and these are the only petitioners who direcsly op- poss the thousands who have signed the pro- test against the bill A considerable number of the business men who signed for the Atkin- son bill in this original petition did so, how- ever, through a misunderstanding of the situation and of the meauing and effect of the bill, and they are now found enrolled in the list of those who protest against the measure. A mere handful of the signers to ihe potion for tfe Atkinson bill remain unchange‘ The letters accompanying many of the peti- tions sent to Tue Stak and known opinions of other signers indiente that a very large major- ity of the signers of Tux Stax petition favor the more radical method of remedying the avil of railroad occupation of the mall bya re- noval of the station; there are. however, a considerable number of the signers who are indtferent om this point or who favor a reten- tion of the station on the mali, but indorse the other sugzested nuprovements, ‘The latter in- names on the unpadded $ petition against the clude some of the be: poztion of the railroad removal of the station. Two or three indicate their preference for the second alternative method of treating the tracks on the mall by striking out from the petition all suggestion of the removal of the station. The signatures to Sue Sram petition are notable not only in quantity but in quality. They include, ws stated. most of the weighty Bames on the previous petitions, and bundreds of others. who have “unftinchingly stood by Washington from the first. The business men, the merchants of the city, muke a fine showing on the petition in spite of the intimation of the advocates of the Atkin- sou bill that they as the class upon whom the railroad could exercise the greatest pressure would hesitate to say a word even for the pro- tection of life, the adornment of the city and the removal of a trade obstruction. The mer- chants have nobly vindicated themselves from the imputation of cowardly selfishness, Almost every line of trade in the sented in the list of petitioners Atkinson bill. It will be reulembered that the board of trade at an extraordinarily well atteuded meet- ing on March 19, 13%, at which the Post reported that fully 300 of Washington's “solid citizens” were present. adopted, without a dis- senting vote, the report of the railroad com- mittee condemning the Atkinson bill, and directed that committee to urge the views of the report upon Congress. This unanimous action of @ mearly full board meeting remains as the action of the organization. The railroad has attempted to break the force of this con- demunatign by causing it to be published that some fatty of the members of the board favor the retention of the station on the mall. If favoring the present station site meant indors- ing the Atkinson bill, as it clearly does not, the alleged revolting board of trade members would coustitute only # fraction of the full member- ship of several hundred, and most of this frac- tion have confessed that they failed to per- form their duties as members of the board and were absent from the meeting at which the board declared the policy in respect to railroad matters which binds the organiza- fiou. The signatures of many of the members of the board, a very large number. however, being now absent for the summer, indicate clearly that the board does not go back upon iteelf, but 1# still im line upon this subject with the people and business men of the city. Some bog! apna number credited with opposing the policy of the board have signed the petition against the Atkinson bill. The worfingmen as well as the merchants Baturally figure largely on Tux Srax petition. The Federation of Labor. representing nine- teen workingmen’s organizatious of the city, bad condemned the Atkinson bill fh the Strongest terms, and the condemnation was in- dorsed by the local assembly of Knights of Lavor. Very readily, therefore. the repre tentative men among the workingmen attached their names to the printed petition. In this connection THs Siak has just received a com- munication from the Federation of Labor , pub- ished elsewhere in this paper) in which it is stated that the federation. by a unanimous vote. bas instructed its officers to sign, officially, for the organization Tue Star petition. The ministers of South Washington have Sent « Vigorous protest against the Atkinson bill to Congress, and their action is supple- G@ented by the signatures of # number of the clergymen in other parts of the city to Tux Svak petiuon. The clergy is naturally inter- ested in & movement to decrease bloodshed and is practically a unit against grade crossings and the Atkinson bill. The ladies have not availed themselv: any cousiderable number of the ege which was granted them of voting in this mat- ter. Probably they rely upon the men to pro- tect them in protecting themselves, Prominent men from all sections of the city, eld and young, rich aud poor. of all occupa- tions, trades and professions, have signed this petition. In publishing few sample names from its het of signers Tux Stan is embarrassed by ex- sess of riches. Space will not permit the pub- lication of more than a very small number in today's issue, and there are many other names fully as representative m character as those published im the mass of petitions, for the thorough examination of which there has been bo convenient opportunity, aud among the ad- ditions to the list which are pouring in every hour of the day.

A Naval Board Designing Plans for a Torpedo Cruiser. VESSELS FOR WHICH BIDS WILL GOON BE ARKED— TRE TRIPLE-SORRW CRUIAEA AND THR BIO BATTLE SRIP#—A RAM WITH 4 TURTLE BACE WHICH NOW EXINTA ON PAPER, The board of commodores, constituting the construction and designing body of the navy, is at present ongaged upon a consideration of the plans for the torpedo cruiser or torpedo chaser for which provision waa made in the Tecent naval appropriation bill. This vessel is to be @ novelty as far as the American navy is concerned, her nearest prototype being the Vesuvius as regards size, shape and apoed, She will practically have no rival, for the pres- ent atleast, She in virtually to be an over- sized torpedo boat of the protected type, fitted with torpedo tubes and an offensive gun bat- tery and is designed primarily to attack the small torpedo boats of the Cushing class, MER PROBABLE DIMENSIONS. There inas yet no definite conclusion reached as tothe dimensions and general charaeteris- tics of this vessel, although those figutos are quite likely to be adopted: Length, 260 feet; breadth, 26 feet; draught, 8 speed, 23 knote; horse power, 6,000." She will probably be fitted with coil boi nd will cost about €350,000. She will differ from the Ve thix material point: that she will hav. der guns of a practically umiversal range, whereas the dynamite cruiser is hindered in her scope of operations by the fixation of her three pnenmatic guns, which can only be trained by the movements of the ship. A NEW TORPEDO BOAT. There is also to be one additional torpedo boat built of the Cushing class, the appropria- tion for this purpose being $125,000. It is thought likely that the contractors for the Cushing, the Herreschoff Company, will be asked to duplicate that remarkable little ves- sel, with certain modifications designed to lessen the vast amount of machinery which she carries in order to give more room below. FOUR BI@ SHIPs. It is expected that the bidding on the four new big ships, the .three great battle ships and the three-screw cruiser, which is to take place October 1, will be quite spirited, as those old rivals, the Cramps of Philadelphia and the Union Iron Works of San Francisco, declare their determination to oppose each other again. Some naval authorities are of the opinion that bidders will be more eager for the swift cruiser than fur the battle ships on ac- count of the opportunity offered by the three screws to make large premiums, but as the requirements as to speed are to be very high—twenty-two knote—the rivks are great. On the other hand there are some who believe that the battle ships will be sought after with the greater avidity on ac- count of the very novelty of the three-screw plan, which 18 yet to be demonstrated a si cess,’ ‘The appropriation for the battle ships is $12,000,000, or €4.000,000 for each vessel, and that for the cruiser, which some one in the de- partment has, for the lack of a better name than a number, duffed the “Pirate” is $2,750,- 000, each exclusive of armament. MAY BID ON A BATTLE SHIP. There isa rumor thatthe Bath Iron Works, which is now building the two 1,000-ton gup- boats, intends to bid on one battle ship, the facilities and tool plants having been lately enlarged with this view, SHIPS ON THE WAYS. Work on the Maine and the Cruiser Number Seven at the New York yard is progressing well. The Maine isin so advanced a state of con- struction that her launching is expected to take place by the Ist of November next, The other vessel wili probably be launched some time next summer, The two ships correspond- ing to these, being built by the government at Norfolk, the Texas and Cruiser Number Eight, are not going ahead so rapidly. Work on them has almost come to a standstill, owing to the absence of the constructor in charge in Europe on leave and some trouble that has been had of late with the stern post of the Texas. It will probably be a year yet before the Texas is ready to go off the ways, A TURTLED-BACKED BAM. ‘There is another vessel undergoing the pro- cess of puper preparations in the Navy Depart- ment, the Ammen Ram, or Turtle, as she is facetiously culled, She is to be a very peculiar crvtt, with a sioping back, the edge of which goes under the water line. Her prow will be 1m the shape of a ramming beak and she will be provided with a heavy gun and one or two torpedo tubes, Her plans are nearing the stage of readiness that justities advertisement, but there issome doubi being expressed ae to whether she will ever be built. There are some officers who believe she will suffer the fate of the “John Thomas,” as the ship designed by ex-Congressman Ihomas was called and which now gathers dust as a paper roll in the mortuary chambers of the Navy Department, DOWN WEN¢ THE HORSE. An Animal That Kicked Itself Through the Floor Into # Cellar. Ahorse had a strange adventure yesterday according to the story told by Policeman Kim- mell this morning. In the neighborhood of Massachusetts avenue and 2d street northwest the officer says there are two rival dealers in the same line and each runs a horse and wagon. The horse belonging to one of the dealers broke loose from the stable yesterday and managed to get in the feed room, under which there is a cellar, The floor was an old one and one of the ani- mal’s feet went through the boards, The ani- mal kicked so hard that the entire floor went through aud down went the horse to the bot- tom of the cellar, “Say, Mr. Kimmell,” the owner of the ani- mal snid to the officer, “don’t tell that man down the street about it, because he will laugh until he swells up like this.” putting his hands out about three tect from his waistband, A derrick was obtained and after consider- able dificulty the horse was extricated froin the cellar.

A trotting matinee will be given at Bennings Tuesday, August 12, at 3 o'clock. ‘The gates will be throwa open to the public with the ex- ception that objectionable characters will be denied udmittance.

The testimony, which has been prepared in book form, fills three books. As soon as Maj. Moore reads over the evidence it will be truns- mitted to the Commission:rs for their approval of the findings of the trial board, which, while not yet made public, is thought to be favorable to the officer. Not Affected by the Tie Up. The'tie up on the New York Central railroad will not affect the New York and Boston trains from this city, so Passenger Agent Parke of the Baltimore and Potomac railroad suid this morning. The trains from New York and the cars from Boston all arrived on time this morn- ing and all trains for those points are leaving on the scheduled time. The Grand Army ex- cursionists, Mr. Parke thought, would not be delayed by the tie up, but would continue right straight through to Boston. ‘Temporarily in Command. While M. Emmet Urell, the commander of the Department of the Potomas, G.A.R., is ab- sent from the city at Boston he has assigned Mr. Harrison Di @ past department commander, to the command of the depart- ment. —- His Eloquence Overcame the Court.

PRECOCIOUS AND DEPRAVED. EN pra we If a Quorum is Present the Railroad | An Alabama Colored Roy a Burglar and Swurs Stearn Matter May be Quickly Settled. PARSENT STATUS OF THE ATKINSON BILI—TEE BALLBOAD LOBBY QUIBTLY AT WORK—ALTERNA- TIVE MEASURES THAT MAT BE CONSIDERED IF THE BILL GOES BACK TO THE COMMITTEE. Mondéay is District day in the House. The Atkinson bill is expected to be finally disposed of if it is possible to get a quorum. On the last day the District had in the House a motion torecommit this bill with instructions was adopted by a majority of almost two to one. A motion was made by the friends of the cor- poration to reconsider this action, and» Mr. Hemphill then moved to lay this motion on the table, Mr. Hemphill’s motion was carried by a strong majority, but there was one less than ® quorum present and the matter wont over until another District day. WHAT 18 IN ORDER. Tho first thing in order is a renewal of the roll call on Mr. Hemphill’s motion, which. be- ing carried, will leave the bill in the hands of the committee to be amended so as to include provisions for the protection of the people as well as for the benefit of the corporation. The exact form of the motion to recommit, which was carried, and which the vote Monday should confirm, was to recommit with instructions to reports bill removing the passenger station from the mall. All those members who oppose the bill as prevented by the attorneys of the road, drawn Up #0 as to give the corporation all the rights and privileges it asks for, regardless of the rights of the public, do not necessarily favor the removal of the station from its present site. But all those who are opposed to the bill in the railroad torm will vote to confirm the action of the House in recommitting the bill. To recon- sider this action would be a surrender to the railroad, uniess it oes back to the committee. Amendments to improve the measure will, in most cases, be ruled out of order. ALTERNATIVE PROPOSITIONS, These are a number of alternative proposi- | tions for the protection of the public. Some members prefer one plan and some another, But in order to get anyof them on the bili must be recommitted. So all those who want the bill amended will vote with Mr. Hemphill, and the friends of the Peunsyiva through as it is, wili vote against Mr. Hemp- hill’s motion. ‘THE LOBBY AT WORK. The railroad lobby has been hard at work, but more quietly than heretofore. An immense pressure has been brought to bear on some of | the members, but it is believed that very few, if any, of those who took the side of the peopie | on the last vote can be induced to go over to the corporation. There has probably not a sin- gie member gone ovef to the railroad who cast his vote ou the public side of the question on the last District day. ‘The only anxiety of the friends of the District | found, but the latter had disappeared. is lest there be not a quorum present on Mon- | day.

From Good Housekeeping. A tooth in its normal condition consists of four parts or substances—enamel, cement, dentine and pulp. Enamel is the outer cover- ing of the crown or exposed portion of the tooth, and by 4 wise provision of nature it 1s thickest where most subject to use and wear. It is the hardest tissue of the human system, possesses of itself no sensibility, and contains not over 4 per cent of animal matter. Yet it is an important fact, and one which should not be lost sight of in caring for the teeth, that this indispensable coating is almost entirely | soluble in acids. Cement is the boue-like | covering of the roow and neck of the tooth, corresponding for the covered portion | to the enamel, with which it blends and unites abont the edge of the gums, for | the exposed part.
