Siles Casey, at New York, president the board appointed to superintend the trial the new gunboat Concord, as follows: « aa speed of the news indicated that something was radically wrong with the vessel. She be- gan her trial a week ago Monday, and started Gineers Kreisted, Wharton and Aston, The vessel was built by N. F. Palmer, jr., & Co., of New York, the successors to John Roach's business, and should have been com- pleted over @ year ago, since which time she been earning money for the government in the form of penalties, amounting to a good many thousand dollars. She was to develop, according = = — of her er an average indicate: orse power 3,400 during a ran of four consecutive hours, For every Power over this figure she would have earned a premium of @100 for her uilders, with @ corresponding in case of failure, Altho tl h there are no data yet at hand con- cerni: e trip, it is being assumed that in view of the usual slowness of returns from the trial trips of the ships, this announcement of failure signifies either a break in the engines ora large deficiency of horse power, such as could be quickly ascertained. Her sister ship, the sae built by the same firm, has not yet been tried. The Yorktown, a simiiar vessel built by the Cramps of Philadelphia, mate 3400 horse power on her trip, or 400 over her require- ment. This performance was at the time thought to be quite above the range of th ordinary, aud there was a good dei 8 n criticism when this record was made the standard for all future peformances of vees- sels of this tonnage— 1,703. OUR WORLD’s FAIR EXHIBIT. A Board of Trade Committee Discuss It With the Commissioners, It will be remembered that at a recent meet- ing of the board of trade a resolution was adopted to the effect that a committee of three be appointed to present to the Commis- sioners of the District of Columbia the necessity and importance of the District of Columbia making an exhibit at the world’s Columbian exposition to be held in Chicago in 1893, with the assurance that the board of trade would heartily co-operate in every effort to promote this patriotic move- ment, This morning acommittee composed of Messrs, E. Kurtz Johnson, Myron M. Parker and A, B. Anderson cailed upon the Commis- sioners in connection with the above and were accorded a special hearing in the board room. Mr. Johnson spoke of the necessity and im- portance of the District of Columbia bein; properly represented at the worl. fair anc urged that an appropriation of $100,000 be asked, for to be appro riated in two instal- ments, $50,000 by this Congress and 250,000 by the next Congress. He also urged that these amounts be embraced in the Commissioners’ estimate for the expense of the gov- ernment, He gave as a reason for this, “that he was of the impres- sion, in fact, he understood that Chicago would ask for a veparate appropriation for the Chicago directory and also a separate appropriation for the board of lady managers, and if this sum asked fur by them was included in the Com- missioners’ estimates it would not attract the attention that a separate appropriation would,” THE LAW AGAINST BUCH A COURSE. Mr. Douglass said he did not think the Com- missioners were authorized bv law to embrace such an expenditure in their estimates, and he read the law on the subject, which says: “The said Commissioners shall submit to the Secre- tary of the Treasury for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1879, thereafter, for his statement show- P d to be under- J year mext en- taken by them during the suing, and estimated cost thereof. ‘Also the cost of constructing, repairing and maintaining all bridges authorized by law to cross the Potomac river within the District of Columbia, and aiso all other streams in said District; cost of maintaining all public institu- tions of charity, reformatories and prisons, be- longing to or controlled wholly or in part ae the District: of Columbia, and which are now by law supported wholly or in part by the United States or District of Columbia, and also the expenses of the Wash- ington aqueduct and its appurtenances; and also an itemized statement and estimate of the amount necessary to defray the expenses of the government of the District of Columbia for the next fiscal year.” Mr, Douglass said that in view of this he did not think that it could be properly embodied in their annual estfmates, but that he thought it was a proper subject to discuss in the Com- missioners’ annual report. Mr. Parker called attention to the last por- tion of the last clause, which was to the effect that the Commissioners forward to the Secre- tary of the ‘Treasury an estimate of the amount necessary to defray the expenses of the govern- meu of the District of Columbia for the next fiscal year, He thought that the Commis- sioners could properly include the worid’s fair appropriation in their estimates under this clause, Mr. Ross said that he was not decided on the point, but that he would talk the matter over turther with Mr. Douglass, He asked the committee if they did not think $100,000 was exorbitant; that the people might object to sucha large expenditure, when there were so many streets that neededimprovement. Mr, Johnson replied that he thought that the good which would enure from the exhibit would more than compensate for the expenditure, Mr. Parker said he thought $100,000 was not exorbitant, and that it would tke at least this much to make a proper showing. Mr. Auderson referred to the fact that the pies of all the sister republics were going to submit exhibits at the world’s fair and that he thought it eminently proper that the District of Columbia, the capital of the United States of America,should also submit an exbibit which would compare favorably with the othera, THE WASHINGTON CENTENNIAL. As the committee were leaving Mr. Parker said he desired to call attention to one other thing before they left, and that was the ques- tion respecting the celebration of the centen- nial here in Washington. This celebration, he said, should be under the direction of the Commirsioners of the District of Colum- bia, He assured them of the hearty co-op- eration of the board of trade, and finished his remarks by saying thathe thought the hotel men of the city would contribute handsomely, 8o that the District need not be put to any ex- pense, A grand ball’ in he pension office uilding, he thought, would be the proper way to celebrate. The Commissioners will discuss the matter of embodying in their estimates the amount asked for the exhibit of the District of Colum- bia at the world’s fair and decide whether or not they can properly so embody it, Transfers of Real Estate.

Facts From Inspector Entwisle’s An- nual Report. ‘THOSE ERECTED IX THE LAST TEAR EXCEERD Ix VALUE THOSE OF THE TEAR PREVIOUS BY OVER A MILLION OF DOLLARS—ESTIMATES FOR THE NEXT FISCAL TEAR. The inspector of buildings today submitted to the Commissioners his annual report cover- ing the transactions of his department during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1890, together with estimates and recommendations for the coming fiscal year. During the year 1,725 brick buildings were erected at an aggregate cost of 5,156,456. During the same period 106 private stables were erected, 23 ware houses and shops, 41 stores, 10 office buildings, at a cost of $367,650; four churches, two school houses, one depot, one bank, one market house, four boiler houses, two absttoirs, two club houses, two asylums and onekiln. Per- mits for 288 frame buildings at a cost of €478,965 were issued. The above, together with the repairs to buildings, awnings, railings and vaults, 4, ye an estimated cost of 97, 752.733, ere were issued di the ear 941 permits for the use of water for build- ing ‘ite and the fees from building Permits amounted to $10,696.15. which, together with the $2,192.16 charges for the use of water, amounted to a total of $12,888.31 of the fees collected. During the year there were 2,113 dwellings erected. The increase in the cost of new buildings and repairs, &c., over those last year amounts to @1,587,018. Con- sidering that there are but fifty-four ne buildings in excess of buildings erected the previous year in value 587,018, in excess of the value for the same year, shows, says Mr. Entwisle, that the build- ings are of a better class as the city progresses. The work of his office, he says,has n steadily increasing and there is great need to increase the force. The assistant tor is charged with the inspection of all new buildinge and re- pairs in course of construction and he thinks that at least two more assistants on gep- eral city inspection are needed. There has been d the year 19 brick and 61 frame buildings condemned and taken down and 23 Rotices to vacate dangerous buildings. The proper numbers have been given for 1,700 new buildings, and 334 old buildings have been examined and notices sent to correct the num- bers on the same. NEW SCHOOL HOUSES BUILT. During the year plans and specifications were prepared and there were erected five eight-room and one four-room and one two- room school buildings, together with an addi- tion and extension to the High School, the Mott school and the Benning white and the Benning colored schools, The Madison school building im the third division was completed at 8 cost of $32,102.30; the Jackson school building cost 38,031.20; the Garrison school cost $32,790.82; the Ambush echool building cost $32,605.52. These buildings, Mr. Entwisle says, are of the most substantial character and will compare with any in the country in point of sanitary arrangement, light and ventilation and convenience. ‘The addition to the High School cost $39,987.20, the Monroe school building cost ‘€27,138.86, the Hillsdale school building cost €8,126.59, the Good Hope school building cost $5.212.69, The appropriation of — €20,000 for school repairs was expended in the follow- ing divisions as follows: High School, $2,005.67; first division, 1,567.87; second ' division, $2,189.71; third division, $2,281.22; fourth di- mn, $1,778.78; Gfth division, $1,225.36; sixth division, $3,598.42; seventh division, €2.162.90; eighth division, $3,271 Mr. Entwisle says that the appropriation for repairs to public school bi i aay should not be less than $35,000, as the small amounts previously ap- propriated barely keep them in a habit- able condition. The exterior of a large por- tion of many of them, he says, need painting to preserve them, and there are 361 which should have tie walls kalsomined. When built, be says, the walls are sand finished pre- paratory for kalsomining, but for want of suffi- cient funds they are yet with the bare sand finish, and as they are all first-class buildings they should be kept in good condition. ENGINE AND STATION HOUSES. During the year $1,991.71 was expended for repairs to engine houses, These he says have been put in good condition, but on account of the great wear on them from constant use it is necessary tomake the appropriation $3,500, Mr. Entwisle saye he finds that the engine houses of the city are equal to the most im- proved in the country. Speaking of the sum alloted for the repair of market houses Mr. CEntwisle calls attention to the fact that the amount appropriated last year was $700, and of this amount €568.10 was expended. He thinks an appropriation of €3,000 should be allowed to ut them in thorough condition. The station eds of the city, he says, are all in good con- dition, with the exception of No. 7 in George- town, which should be removed to some healthier location. It stands on a dry stone wall, he says, atthe edge of the Chesapeake and Ohio canal, and is constantly settling from the perpendicular and approaching an unsafe condition, The following are the estimates for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1892, tor the expenses of | his office: ESTIMATES FOR NEXT YEAR. Salary of inspector of buildings, $2,400; chief clerk and architect, $1,600; one assistant in- spector of buildings, $1,200; two assistant in- spectors of buildings, @1,000 each; one clerk, €900; messenger, 480; contingent expenses, 2575; total office estimate, $9,155. For care of District office building: One engineer, $900; one janitor, #700; three laborers, at €1.50 per day; total, $12,163.50: repairs to public scivol buildings, €30,000; repairs to po- lice stations, $2,500; repairs to fire engine houses, $3,500; ‘repairs to market houses, €1.000; repairs to hay scales, $250; repairs to Police Court, 600; repairs to interior of the District office building, $500. The above esti- mates the inspector ways should not be cur- tailed, as ineach case he has placed them at the smallest amount that will be necessary. He urges an increase in the salary of Mr. Brady, his chief architect, as ‘well as the salaries of two assistant inspectors of buildings, —_— WILL IT MATERIALIZE? The Opposition to Senator Cameron, Washington Correspondence Philadelphia Ledger. There is foundation for the talk about op- Position to the re-election to the Senate of Mr. Cameron, but it is not likely that any- thing substantial will come from it, This opposition was latent, but none the less earnest, prior to the election, but since then it has found expression, and leading re- publicans are known to be willing to co- operate with a movement to send another in the place of Cameron if the right man can be found. A strong man from Philadelphia who could command the support of the repub- lican delegation from that city would be cer- tain to receive large accessions from the coun- ties outside of Philadelphia. The defeat of Mr. Delamater has strengthened the desire to supersede Cameron. Mr. Quay is undoubtedly favorable to the re-election of his colleague, but could Mr. Quay control the republican members of the legislature in this matter?

FAILED TO WORK. “There was s story in some of the papers this morning about a couple of Polish exiles,” said a Minneapolis millionaire to « Stan re- porter today, “‘but the true inwardness of the affair was not made plain. The facts in the case are rather interesting, for they show how great an interest at least one foreign government takes in some of the peo- ple who make this country their abiding place. The principal character in this matter is Frank Grygia, an intimate friend of George Kennan’s and a man weil known to many Wash- ingtonians. He was bere for some time before and after Harrison's inauguration. Grygle is in the builders’ supply business in Minneapolis, Sent ea eats ® Polish exile the National Polis Ailience | sae “About four years ago there came to Minne- apolis another native of Poland, Leo Heilpern, who secured employment in one of our mam- moth flour milis Strangely enough be rented rooms near the residence of Grygia, ou Stevens avenue. Then he proceeded to become s0- quainted with Grygia, aud with much patient gentioman. endeavor be cultivated that Mr. Hetlpern was very much interested in the Polish alliance, and in his ouly manner endeavored to get inside information from his new-found friend. He failed, for the reason that Grygia, to use a street phrase, was “on to him,” and was doing a little pumping on bis ownaccount, Then another scheme came to the surface. Heilpern sent to Poland for his wife and two children, and when they rrived established them in a cozy home pear the Grygiaresideuce. Intimacy between the two familios sprang up and was, superficially, of @ most cordial nature. Suddenly things put on acloudy appearance. Heilpern was ch with infidelity and several other things and he left Minneapolis quite hastily. Not unnaturally the Grygia family did their best to com- fort the forsaken wife and children, but they soon ceased to be kind It became evident that the disappearance of Heilpern was ® part of the scheme, for Mrs. Heilpern did ber best to find out matters of importance con- cerning the work which the Polish alliance is doing to aid Poles who are in Siberia The Grygias and the Heilperns do not «peak as they = by.

The Russian secret service is an expensive luxury, but it proposes to get all the news.” MADE A BLOODY SIGHT, A Blow With a Beer Glass and Its Se- quel in the Police Court. Charlie Lee, a colored man, who is employed in Sullivan's saloon, near 13th and E streets, wore a white shirt to his service place this morning. When he appeared before Judge Miller about noon his shirt was stained with his own blood. He was assaulted while at- tending to his own duties in the saloon Law- rence Johnson, a barber, who works in a shop near Sullivan's, was the person who caused the spilling of the gore. Johnson was once mixed up ina saloon fight and Lee was one to give evidence contradictory of what Johuson gave. Johnson said that when he went in Sullivan's this morning he saw Lee with his hand in his pocket. He said he thought that Lee had ® pistol or some other weapon and he threw a beer glass at him. ‘The giass was a heavy one and it inflicted two painful cuts on his face, which Dr. Middleton dressed at the Emergency oe: Jobnson was fined €25 or sixty days — Verdi’s Ancestry. As many people are in doubt about the an- cestry of Verdi, the composer, the following ‘translation from an Italian paper of recent date will be of interest: “Joseph Verdi was born at Roncole, a little villagea few kilo- meters from Bussetto, province of Parma, from an innkeeper, October 9, 1813. He passes the winter atGenda and the balance of the year he divides between Milan and St Agota, to.” —_——— Do You know the location of Wesley Heights?
