A VENERABLE OFFICIAL HONORED, Clerk R. J. Meigs Presented With » Hand- some Cane by the Justices. ‘This being the ninetieth anniversary of the birth of Return J. Meigs, the venerable clerk of the court, the justices of the Supreme Court of the District caned him handsomely, but notin a public manner, the affair taking place in the consultation room. The cane, a handsome ebony stick, fs sur- mounted by a heavy carved gold head, seem- ingly made for the grasp of the venerable clerk's hand. On the side is inseribed “Return ‘J. Meigs. On hie nineticth anniversary from his frignds, the justices of the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia.” "On one end of the head is the monogram “R. J. M.” and on the other the date, “April 14, 1891. When Justices Hagner apd James sent for Mr. Meigs he was found standing at his desk in the office, busily engaged in lool over the minutes ‘of the General Term. He at onee complied with the request and Major Williams and one of his granddaughters accompanied him. On enterin, the ‘consaltation room, entirely oblivious as to what was wanted, the granddaughter was introduced and the justices rising Judge Hagner, holding the cane in his hand, made a neat little address, in which he, for the court, congratulated Mr. Meigs on his robust health at his advanced age and expressed the hope that he would remain with them yet for many years. The old gentleman was taken by surprise and pleasantly remarked that a plain old hickory stick would better suit him, but that he had never walked with a cane in his life. Judge Hagner suggested that perhaps he would reach such an age 4s to make the stick useful. Ina conversation following, the fact was al- Inded to that the first judge ‘appointed in the District for the old Circuit Court was on March 3, 1801, and that Mr. Meigs was, therefore, but a fow woeks younger than the courts of the Dis- trie Mr. Meigs then retired, first asking pleasantly, “Shall I not enter order in the minutes of the court ‘In re Return J. Meigs caned by the court,’ and at my time of life, ninety years.” When Mr. Meigs returned to the office he was for some time besieged by his friends, extend- ing congratulations und admiring the memento of the occasion. It was somewhat singular that one of his friends said that on going to Nashville, directly after the war, one of Mr. Meigs’ cases, commenced in the thirties, fell to him and he recognized the handwriting of Mr. Meigs at that day to be the same as at the present. —_-—-- SECRETARY PROCTOR’S POSITION, No Intention of Kesigning at Present—Will Accept the Senatorship if Offered. Secretary Proctor's position in regard to the Vermont senatorship was unequivocally de- fined last night when he made publie the fol- lowing statement, being largely in the form of a personal explanation: ‘T have been absent from Washington for a month on the business of the department, and have returned in the regular course of my trip, having simply timed my return so as to see the President before he leaves the city. All rumors that I have any present intention of resigning are without foundation. “Asto my business interests, I have none which require my attention or to which I should give any considerable attention if I were out of office. I suppose that it is_unnecessary for me to say that my relations with the Presi- dent and my associates are, as they always have been, of the most agreeable and harmonious character. vith respect to the senatorship I find on my return, by the receipt of letters and the press comments from Vermont, that a good many of my friends are anxious that I should succeed Senator Edmunds. ‘The position of Senator from my state has for a good many Years been somewhat unique, and it is not and never been within my memory considered lace permitting any candidacy in the sense. Vermont has a number of men capable and worthy to represent her in the United States Senate, though it could not be hoped that any one could fill the place of Sen- ator Edmunds, whose resignation has been re- ceived, as it must naturally have been, with the test regret, and who, for twenty-five years, | sezenabonires| Vermont in the United States Senate to the equal honor of himself and his state and the great advantage of the country. “Should the position in due time be offered to me with the hearty approval aud good will of the ‘of the state t should scarcely feel at liberty to decline the honor and opportunity to serve them who have so many timex showed their confidence in me. But the Senator's resignation does not take effect until next No- vember, and in the meantime Gov. Page has plenty of time to carefully weigh the matter and tuke such action as ke deems to be best for the interests of the state and most in accord with the wishes of her people. oe RATES ON PERISHABLE FREIGHT.

The points decided are brieflyas follows: For & special service by a carrier, such as the trans- portation of perishable freight, requiring quick movement, prompt delivery at destination, special fitting up of cars, their withdrawal from other service and their return empty on fast time, all involving greater expense to the carrier, 8 higher rate than for the carriage of ordinary freight is warranted by the conditions of the service and is reasonable and just. But the higher rate for a special service should bear a just relation to the value of the service to the traffic, and is not wholly in the discretion of the carrier. While a carrier should be fully compensated, the public inter- ‘ests require that the trafic should not be ren- dered valueless to the producer, if the charges of the carrier have such an effect and can be reasonably reduced. The requirements of the statute that all rates shall be reasonabie and just involves a con- sideration of the commercial value of the traf- fic and implies that rates should be so adjusted that producers of traffic as well as carriers may carry on their pursuits successfully, if prac~ ticable for both and * without’ injustice to the carrier. The public good requires whut is plainly the spirit of the law, that the trans- portation interests are not alone to be con- sidered, but that in the just exercise of regula- tion care should be taken that the lawful and necessary occupations of citizens are not un- The complaint was that tho defendants, charges for the tation of specific perttiabie articiee of trock farming from ste- tions on their lines of railroad to Jersey City and Philadelphia were excessive and unreason- able, and 03 charges were higher for the shorter distances from their stations on the ninsula in Delaware land than for the longer distance from Norfolk, Virginia.

Among the last things the President did last evening before sweeping off his desk tory to leaving it for hie month's tour in the south and west was toattach his signature to the Paper left with him some days ago by the Rock Creek Park commission and thereby approving the project of condemnation. It was feared that possibly this matter, which has been on the President's desk for over a week, might be lost in the general shuffle of things that took place at the executive man- sion last night. it the President is not in the habit of doing such things, and he gave tho stamp of his assent tothe acheme levised bs the commissioners and the schedule of prices Accompanying re was a map, showing the exact cows and bounds of th park. his was also approved, and the commis- wioners were notified this morning of the fact. A COMMISSIONERS’ MEETING. There will probably be a meeting of the com- mission this week, at which the map will be formally signed, and then it will be taken down to the oifice of the recorder of deeds and filed in compliance with the la i offering of prices This act stipulates th to private owners at the rates agreed npon shall be completed within thirty days from the filing of the map, and hence the commission will lose no time in writing to each of the holders announcing the rate which the government will pay for the land. In case sales are not | concluded by this od within the thirty | days application is to be made to the court for condemnation proceedings. THE PRICES OFFERED. The prices that are to be offered are kept a secret at present in order to prevent undue combinations on the part of property owners in the tract selected, but itis possible that aa soon as all of the offers have been made the commission will consent to a publication of the schedule. ‘The map that is to be filed this week is re- garded by the commission as one of the finest pieces of work ever done. It is about four feet ¥y twelve and is very complete in its detailed description of the proposed park. A TALK WITH GEN. BOYNTON. Gen. Boynton, a member of the commission, said to a Stan reporter this morning: “Capt. Rossell had full charge of this work of survey and preparing the map, and I must say that he has done magnificent. ‘He has given | us the finest possible survey and one of the most complete maps I ever saw. It shows the exact boundary of the park, the bounds of each holdi character of the land, whether marshy, hilly, rolling, flat, wooded, clear, smooth, stony, agricultural or otherwise; it indicates every building and all improvements and is, in fact, a most complete picture of the whole territory. ‘THE WORK WAS PUSHED. “Ido not believe I ever heard of « public work that was pushed forward with as much zeal and skill and intelligence. Not a moment's time was lost, and bad weather did not delay the surveying any more than was positively unavoidable. “The captain put his men in rubber boots and had them out in the field all through the win- ter, working durimg all kinds of weather, ex- cept when it was raining or snowing so hard that they could not get their sights. . Rossel “had full control. If he wanted any- thing he received itand when he made an | estimate that he could use a certain number of men he was told to get twice as many or three times as many, if they conld be found and utilized.’ No stone was left unturned to shove the work ahead at top of speed, and to Capt. Rossel is due all of the credit.” MR. PERRY AND THE LEGAL MATTERS. Mr. R. Ross Perry, the legal member of the commission, has in preparation a letter to the Attorney General asking for a full intepreta- tion of the law constituting the commission, particularly upon point as to whether or not that body has the authority, in case sales cannot be effected within the limit stipulated—$1,200,000—to go beyond that sum. Mr. Perry will submit a number of direct quee- tions, the answers to which will greatly facili- tate the work of the commission. THE REPORT IN CAPT. ROSSELL'S HANDS. The valuation report made by the commis- sion to the President, and bearing the Presi- dent's signature, was’ lying today on Capt. Kowsell’s desk at the District buildings. It is a voluminous package of papers, em- bracing both the reports of the committee appointed to appraise the land and also that made by Capt. hosscll, who was instructed by the commission to have an appraisement made of the houses and other improvements on the land that the government will have to pay for. The next step in the proceedings will be the filing of the map of the proposed park, which has been prepared by the commission. CONDEMNATION PROCEEDINGS MAY BE COMPLETED IN A MONTH. Mr. R. Ross Perry, a member of the com- mission, said toa Stan reporter today that the work now before the commission would be pushed without delay. After the ma is filed and the thirty days allowe for private arrangement with the prop- erty ‘owners have elapsed "Mr. Perry sald the commission would be prepared to at once file its petition with the court. Under the law, he said, the park commission will con- duet the condenmation proceedings, and he be- lieved they could 80 expedite the work as to have it all completed within a month. In the cases of property owners who accept the offers of the commission the amounts of- fered will be paid as soon as the titles are ex- amined and approved. CANNOT ANTICIPATE THE PROCEEDINGS. There is a contingency which may make farther legislation necessary. After the park commission has purchased tracts here and there by private agreement, it may happen that the commissioners, to assess the land to be con- demned, may fix’ upon prices so great as to make the whole amount required exceed the appropriation. In that event the ground can- not be paid for without additional appropria- tion. The commission, however, will go ahead with its work, ‘paying ‘for ground where their offers are accepted. One of the commission said to a Stan reporter to- day that they had no right to assume or an- ticipate what the amounts to be awarded by the assessing commission may be. It seems to be s general opinion in which the members of the commission share that little if any of the land will be obtained by the govern- ‘as the result of the offers about to be made by the commission. HOW VALUES WILL BE FIXED. ‘The principles of law which the commission expect to have applied to the case are those laid down to govern the post office site com- mission. The value to be fixed for each of ground; Mr. Perry suid today. was its value to one who wanted to purchase it for farm- ing purposes or for a villa site. Its value for park pur; could not, he thought, be considered, for the separate parcels in them- selves had no value for park put It was only when they were all ¢ ‘that the jue as a park. THAT TERRIBLE GRIP. Large Number of Deaths in This City Re- ported Last Week. EFFECTS—GOOD WEATHER WILL DRIVE IT AWAY. ‘With a few more days’ good weather the grip will be virtually over, so doctors say, as many Patients who were confined to their homes last week improved under the inftuence of the bright sun yesterday and Sunday and today many of them were out again. “The only dificulty,” said a doctor to # Stan reporter this morning, “is that just becansethe weather iff so fine people are likely to get care- less, One trouble is that too many persons change their thick clothing for thinner wearing apparel and in many cases their colds, which grow from bad to worse, end in pneumonia or the grip. With alittle care ina short while I think there will be but little grip left in the ty. THE GRIP IN MONTGOMERY COUNTY. Dr. Chas G. Stone of Brightwood, speaking toa Sran reporter, said that the grip had raged in Montgomery county along the line of the District worse this year than it did a ir ago. “Whole families,” he said, “have been sick with the diseate. The disense is not as bad as it was a few days ago.” “Has the grip proven fatal to any extent?” inquired the reporter. “No, there have been but few deaths consid- ering the nature of the illness,” replied the doctor. “The grip this year has generally come in a violent form, although the symptoms were different with different patients. In most casos the grip started with a violent head- che and a flushed face and, in many instancos, severe neuralgic pains were combined te in- crease the suffering. In some instances, ospe- cially among the younger children, the patients are delirious.” DR. BOVEE'S OPINION. Dr. J. Wesley Bovee, the visiting physician at the Washington Asylum, has had a great deal of experience with the grip. Speaking of the dis- ease to Stan reporter today he said: “I regard the grip as being a very dangerous disease. It, in many cases, when mild, seems to be but a bad cold, and as the sufferer progresses toward recovery, danger is not thonght of, and the first exposure to open or bad weather brings on severe bronchitis or worse pneumo- nia. The more severe forms of the disease immediately produce intense depression, both hysically and mentally. It is probably for this reason that some people suffering with the grip have committed suicide or have at- tempted to take the lives of others. In nearly every case there is more or less depression, 1d ‘convalexcence from it is quite similar to that from long illness. The pain in the head, k and extremiti usually of a dry, hacking character, and almost incessant, causing severe pains in the chestand abdomen. I have not only seen others suffering with it, but was myself unfor- tunate in having one attack that clung to me with wonderful tenacity. I think the grip is rhaps more prevalent and severer than dur- ing the epidemic of it of one yeur ago, and I think its prevalence has not been affected by the few warm days we have recently had. I am called to new casex of it every day. It seems a little remarkable, however, that at the Was ington Asylum Hospital last. winter there were treated about 600 while this season there have been very few ing from this malady. Last year every trip of the work house van for some weeks broughtrecruits for the grip beds.” ‘THR ACTING HEALTH OFFICER. Mr. Benjamin F.

Last week there were 181 deaths, the largest number of deaths that has ever occurred in any one week, and is an increase over the corresponding woek of last year of 91.” “This increase,” he continued, “is chiefly the result of lung troubles following an attack of the grip. Exposure in the open air and drafts indoors immediately after the, violent sym toms of the disease have abated is no doubt the cause of most of the pneumonia, bronchitis and other troubles of the throat and lungs, causing this increased mortality. All convalescenta, he concluded, ‘should be extremely careful not to expose themselves too soon after recov- ering, and should not leave their homes just after getting out of bed because the sun hap- Pens to be shining.” GREAT MORTALITY LAST WEEK. week was made out to today and it shows the enormous mortality of 181 deaths in seven days. The cause of this large increase is shown in the number of deaths from such diseases as pneumonia. bronchitis and congestion of the lungs. such as follow the grip. The Classification shows 46 deaths from pneamonia, 18 from congestion of the lungs and 17 from bronchitis, In many of these cases the grip was given as the primary cause of death, whi in others, while the grip was not designated, that was the disease which was followed by the one stated in the returus to the health office. The highest number of deaths during the prevalence of the epidemic last year was 161, which occurred one week in January.

Bond was at the health office today making inquiries about some cases of scarlet fever and the putting up of the warning signs. He had eight casos in one houss, four in another and two in another, but the houses were in different sections of the city. When asked about the grip the doctor said that nearly one-half the doctors are in bed with the grip, and those who were not in bed were sick on’ their feet. He said that there were more cases of the grip this year than last, and 80 far as his experience went he thought the disease of: the, pationte in © more prostrate condition, especially so faras the pulmonary ° were concerned, and they were moro likelf to take the pneumonia or congestion of the Tungs unless considerable care was exer- cised. j ‘THINKS THERE 18 LESS THAN Last YEA.
