What Some of the Signers of The Star’s| Local Marksmen Preparing for the| A Wowax Fouxp Dzso—The Petition Have to Say. With the signatures to Tax Sran’s petition come many letters from citizens whose feel- ings on the railroad question are so strong that the formal language gf a potition is not ade- quate to express them. The thousands of names voluntarily attached to Taz Sran’s pe- tition shows how general i¢ thé demand for | legislation against grade crossings, The many letters written in addition by signers indicates the earnest spirit of those who thus appeal to Congress. TRE PEOPLE AGAINST RAILROAD MONEY. A prominent resident of tne northwestern section sends his own signature and with it those of a number of his neighbors. Ina note to Tux Stan he says: *Inclosed find a few sig- natures, such as I could get time te call on. One citizen says: ‘It is no uso; that has money and will use it, and they can beat | Us every time. But I give you my sig- nature.’” 4A PLEA FOR THE CITY's BEAUTY. A lady who signs the petition writes: “Let the beauty of this lovely city and the rights of | ts taxpayers be forever paramount to the in- terests of all railroad corporations.” THREE NARROW ESCAPES FROM DEATH. Another signer writes: “I gladly avail myself of the opportunity to siga the petition against legalizing murder. I am a semi-mute and three times huve I hada narrow escay from death while crossing 7th street and Vir- ginia avenue. I, for one, thank Taz Stam for the firm stand it has taken to see that justice shall be done the people, who have appealed to Congress in vain. BLOCKING THE CROSSING. A citizen of the northeast, who sympathizes with his fellow townsmen residing in South Washington, sends with his signature a note | saying: “It is of every day oceurrence to block the Baltimore and Olio crossing at Massachu- setts avenue and E street from twenty to twenty-five minutes ata time.” COULD GRT EVERY NAME. Another resident of the northeast writes: “If @ petition were sent around every name in this quarter could be got.” SOME NEW IDEAS. A physician residing in the northern portion of the city sends with his signature « letter in which he expresses objection to railroads in the heart of the city on hygienic grounds, alleging that the carbonaceous matter from the locomo- tive smoke is the cduse of much sickness, also that the smoke besmirvhes the white marble buildings of the government. He writes: “Tam against the Baltimore and Potomac depot remaining on 6th strevt from the fact of its obstruction of the street from Pennsylvania avenue to the river. The street should be cleared of all tracks from the baltimore aud Potomac depot south to its turn off. Further, the depot is on the wrong side of the street. If the depot was on the east side of 6th strect the street could then be cleared of the railroad tracks aud aclearance could be made to the river front.” —_—_.___ THE BALL PLAYERS.

A Man Run Into and Knocked Down by S. P. Brown, jr., Stabs the Latter. 8. P. Brown, jr., of Mount Pleasant received a severe cut in the email of the back in an alter- cation at the corner of 14th street and New York avenue last night. Brown was out driving and ran intoa mac et that corner, knocking him down. Mr. Brown reined up his horse to see if the man was badly hurt and some angry words were exchanged between the two men and soon a fight ensued, in which Brown re- ceived a cut about four inches long just over the kidneys, Several persons, prompted by curiosity, bad come up during the quarrel and parted the combatants, but uufortunately, not until the cut was given. Ihe man who did the cutting was taken into the office of a physician near by and Officer Clawson went there to arrest him, but did not do so. Brdwo went to the first precinct station and demanded the arrest of his xstailant and subsequently called on tre Moore. He then went to the Emerg- ency Hospital and had his wound dressed. ‘The police have the name of Brown's aseailant and the case will be further investigated. ‘Mr. Brown stated today thut he was not driving rapidly when the accident occurred.

WHAT THE GUARD TEAM B48 BEEK DOING LATELY— MAKING GOOD UsE OF THE TIME—A8 TORR’ COMPANIES—THE INSPECTION OF ARMS AXD 178 RESULTS, But little activity is visible in? the District National Guard just now, the brigade being in the uninterrupted enjoyment of « well-earned rest. None of the companies will do any drill- ing until next month opens up, so the armories are by mo means overcrowded. The only work- ers are those who are practicing for Creedmoor, and they are feeling as though they would like to work a little more, Time between now and September 8 is becoming abbreviated at the rate of sixty seoonds to » minute, and every minute of practice is valuable. From two or three quarters has come the insinuation that there will be no rifle team this season, and those who ought to know their duties as offi-’ cers have endeavored to discourage the pea shooters’ plans, but there will, nevertheless, @ team, and the indications are that it will be strong enough to worthily represent the District of Columbia. No oneconuected with the team is claiming any of the prizes which will be shot for on Long Island—there are many well- seasoned competitors in the field—but every man is going to do his best. There are men on the team who are new to the work, and it can hardly be expected that they should administer defeat to the veterans of New York, New Jer- sey, Pennsylvania and other states, to say nothing of the regular army team, Yesterday the riflemen held their fifth reg- ular practice and it was an improvement over any work they have done yet. first practice was on the 8th instant, and the total score of the twelve men was 906, the shooting consisting of ten shots at 200 yards and tive shots each at 500 and 600 yards. On the 12th the total rose to 927 and on the 15th dropped to 891, On the 19th the first total of 908 was reached, while yesterday it crawled up to 931, ‘The comparisons offered by the totals is an un- fair one, for on no two days has the make-up of the team been the same, Absentees-—godd men in other respects—and a very windy were largely responsible for the 891 total. HOW THE “STARS” su0oT, Some of the shooting has beon of the ‘‘star” order. Lieut. Graham reached eighty-nine one day. Capt. Bell did the same thing on another, Three times has Maj. Pollard touched eighty- eight. with Capt, Cash right on his heels and within a point or two each time. Such scores as these are hardly to be looked for from the jess experienced men on the team, but several of the youngsters are gradually closing up th gp and come in bunched around the seventy ves and eightys, occasionally going a coup! of points better than the latter. 48 TO NEW COMPANIES, During the past three or four weeks attempts have been made to raise new companies, which, the projectors invariably said, were to become portions of the District National Guard in the near future. It may be that time will show those statements to be true, but itis a certainty that none of the promoters wore possessed of any authority from Gen. Ordway. In connec- tion with the enlistment of one company in the northwestern section @ local weekly stated that the gentleman who was persuading men to join his command enjoyed the close personal friend- ship of Gen. Ordway, and this allegation hes been worked for all it was worth Gen. Ordway says his uame is being used without his knowl- edge or consent. Asa fact, there is no vacancy, no place where & new company can march in. LOOK OUT FOR THE ENGINEERS, The only new organization likely to get in the guard is the engineer company, which will probably reach the earliest stage of existence about September 15. At that time a meoting will be held, called by Gen. Ordway, and thereat will be discussed the personnel and the ways and means, Preferably the general would have liked to arm the scientific and working platoons of the eugineer Corser with re- volvers, but it is most proba hat he will defer to the wishes of those who have already announced themselves as would-be recruits and will arm them with nfies, GONE AFISHIN’, Gen. Ordway and Col. Long have gone to Woodmont for a few days’ fishing. The genoral ssid he wasn’t going to return until the fish ceased to bite. KEEP YOUR GUNS CLEAN, ‘The second battalion arms were inspecte d on Tuesday evening by Adjt. Anderson, Lieut Surguy and Lieut. Harries. The general con- dition of the rifles was about fair, but there were altogether too many of them without firing pins and with broken locks and ejectors, A hurried cell for the militia would have dis- closed the total usclessness of more than 10 per cent of the guns. Qne of the results of the inspection was a tired janitor. Instead of tak- - personal pride in the condition of their rifles the majority of the men allowed them to rust badly, and when the inspection was or- dered they turned the work of cleaning over to the janitor. No man who has and suldierly pride would do anything of that kind. A soldier with @ rusty gun or disabled gun is much lees effective than » mac armed with a bric! ELECTROCUTED.

MANUFACTURE OF PIG IRON, AMUSEMENTS. _ ——$$ = SS Phenomenal Growth of the ladustry— | KK ®¥4¥s NEW WASHINGTON THEATER. Great Strides of the South. The production of pig iron is the subject dis- cussed in @ census bulletin just issued. In his introductory remarks Superinteudant Porter says: “The production of pig during the year named aggregated 9,579,779 tons (of 2,000 pounds to the ton), as compared with 3,781,021 tons produced during the census year of 1880 end 2,052,821 tons during the census year of 1870. It will be gratifying to notice the great strides which the southern states have made in the manufacture of pig iron since 1880, the to- tal product in that year being 350,436 tons, as against 1,780,309 tons in 1890. The decade bas brought about the most marked change in rank in this industry in the state of Alabama, which in 1880 occupied tenth place, with an output of 62,396 tons, and which now, in 1890, obtains third place, with an output of 890,432 ton an increase of more than 1,828 ba cent over the juction of 1880. The development of the manufacture of pig iron in the United States during the ten years from 1880 to 14% has been phenomenal and at the present rate of increase in production this country is destined soon to become the leading Producer of pig iron in the world, possibly reaching this distinction in the calendar year 1890. uring the calendar year 1989 the pro- duction of pig iron by Great Britam, which has annually produced more pig iron than any other country, is shown by official statistics to have been 9,321,563 tons of 2,000 da, It will be seen from these figures the quantity of Pig won produced by the d States during the census year 1890 was 258.216 tons in excess of the production of Great Britain during the calendar year 1889, No statistics are available for the output of pig iron by Great Britain dur- ing the twelve months ended June 90, 1890, so that comparisons cannot be made for the sa Period as that covered by the census statistics.” PENNSYLVANIA FURNISHES NEARLY HALF, In the report, which is by Dr. Wm. M. Sweet, itis shown that Pennsylvania produced 4,712,511 tons of pig iron,49.19 per cent of the total pro- j @uction, The smaliest producer was North Carolina with 8,377 tons. Virginia, which in 1880 produced but 17,906 tons and waa in seven- teenth place, appeara this time in sixth place with a total of 302,447. Maryland made more iron in 1890 than in 1880, but its position has notimproved. It was im eleventh piace ten years ago and produced 59,664 tons; today it has 96,246 tons to its credit, but it is thirteenth on the list, ‘The total number of furnaces in operation has decrersed from 681 to 562, although the production trebled in the same period. THE PRODUCTION OF BESSEMER PIG 1RON in the United States during the census year 1890, which is included in the figuros of total production of pig iron, amounted to 4,288,372 tons. Of this quantity Pennsylvania made 2,567,818 tons; Illinois, 616,659 tons; Ohio, 526,- 654 tons; New York, 174,574 tons; West Vir; 101,178 tons; Maryland, 77.754 tons; Missour! 68,629 tons; Wisconsin, 43,728 tons; New Jerse: 41,479 tons, and all other states a total of 14, tons, The production of spiegeieiven in the censi year 1890, which is included in the figures of total production of Big iron, amounted to 149,- 959 tons, as compared with 12,875 tons produced inthe census yenr 1830. Four states made spiegeleisen in 1890, viz: New Jersey, Penn- sylvania, Illinois and Colorado, while in 1880 only New Jersey and Pennsylvania were en- aged in its manufacture. THE SEAL POACHERS, Activity Among Them Stimulated by the High Price ot Skins, A report has been received at the Treasury Department from Mr. Max Pracht, the customs collector at Sitka, in reference to the American schooner Mattie Dyer, which was recently seized for violating the seal fisheries law. He remarks: The Dyer and her consorts, to the number of between thirty and forty, the greater portion of them hailing from Victoria. worked up the coast from the straits of Fuca with the herd of seals bound for the breeding places on the Pribyloff islands, Behring sea, The evidence Proves that most of the seals killed are females, mauy of them with unborn “pup.” The great rise in the market price of seal skins, due to the extraordinary high price .bid for the Pribyloff islands — privileges by the Present lessees, has stimulated the seal bunters and poachers to an unheard-of degree. The future consideration of this great source of revenue calls for immediate restrictive and protective measures on the part of the general government. Acting Secretary Soley, speaking for the Navy Department, says that there is no sig- nificance in the presence of the cruiser Charleston at Newport, Orogon, as she is simply taking her summer cruise in northern waters to avoid the unhealthy districts of the the south. Government Receipts and Expenditures. The Treasury disbursements this month have amounted to over $30,000,000, including $19,- 000,000 paid out on account of pensions, but not including payments made on account of silver and bond purchases. The total receipts So fur thie month aggregate $28,000,000, but they will probably exceed the expenditures be- fore the firstof September. ‘The surplus terday was stated at $11%,400.000, but this does not include yesterday's operations, Drax Aix: Oves Is the expression @ lady used in Gescribing her con- dition before using Hcod's Sarsaparilia. ‘Ibis prep- aration is wonderfully adapted for weakened or low state of the system.
