The world’s fair people expect to got a vote on Mr. Durborrow’s substitute for the original Durborrow bill by 1 o'clock tomorrow. When the sundry civil matter is disposed of in the House it has been agreed that Mr. Durborrow will be recognized to call up for passage under suspension of the rules a resolution providing that this Durborrow bill shall be taken up for consideration and be voted upon at 1 o'clock tomorrow. It will require two-thirds to adopt this special order, and there is a possibility that it may fail, but it is expected that if it does the matter will be arranged in some way to carry out the plans of the agreement in caucus and the vote will not occur later than Saturday. There is a possibility that if a vote should be taken at 1 o'clock tomorrow the Senate might agree to it at once and Congress could adjourn | Saturday. If, however, the vote is not taken in the House until Saturday the adjournment can- not occur before Monday or Tuesday, and the indications are that Congress will not get away before that time anyhow. —— +. WILL CARRY ILLINOIS. Representative Forman Thinks That the Are Going to Do It. Representative Forman of Illinois said toa Star reporter this morning that he did not be- lieve the democratic chances in Ilinois this fall would be in any way injured by the fight on the world’s fair item. He got a letter this morning from the state treasurer of Illinois | in which that gentleman said that he had looked the field over very carefully; that the democrats were in a very good condition in Illinois and that he was satisfied that they were going to carry the state. Mr. Forman said that he had no doubt that the two and one-half million dollar appropriation would be passed by Congress and the Chicago peo- ple would be satisfied with what done, and that it would be free from political con sequence. He is very confident, he said, that the democrats would carry Ilinois this fall. ae slits POLITICS IN KANSAS. Representative Simpson Tells of Efforts Be- ing Made to Defeat Him. Representative Jerry Simpson said toa Star | reporter today that there is going to be a very | exciting contest in Kansas this fall and that a desperate effort would be made to defeat him for Congress, He said that they were making almost a national campaign -against him and that a vory large number of negroos were being imported from Tennessee and other places in the south into his district. About 8,000 negroes, | he said, had already been brought into his dis- trict and were employed on the railroad there and he found that it was the belief of the i ‘ople that an attempt would be made hem against him, have, however,” he said, “‘a margin of about 10,000 majority and I do not believe that they can beat me.” “How about the state national election?” was asked. “There is no donbt in the world that the third rty will carry the state by a large majority. e third party is absolutely sure of the electoral vote of Kansas,” Speaking of the election in Alabama Mr. Simpson said that he fully believed that Mr. Kolb was fairly elected bya smalb majorit and that there wasa fraudulent attempt to keep him out. Pe REPRESENTATIVE MARTIN SANGUINE. He Thinks That Mr. Cleveland Will Carry the State of Indiana. Representative Martin of Indiana is very san. guine of democratic success in his state. Some time ago he said: “Idid not believe that we would carry Indiana by any such majority, but witnin the pasttwo or three weeks I have become convinéed that Mr. Cleveland will carry the state by upward of 20,000. Iam receivi gi formation to the effect that a large number of prominent republicans in the state have gone over to either the democratic party or the pro- hibition party and that changes of this sort are occurring all the whil ina very bad shape in various parts of the state. and in the twelfth district they have been unable up to this time to get an; prominent member of their party to serve on the state committee. The tate committeeman from that distnet resigned and others who have been asked to fill his place have refused.” es WILL CARRY NEW YORK. Representative Catchings Tells Why He Thinks Mr. Cleveland W Do It. Representative Catchings, who has just re- turned fram New York, where he has been to attend a meeting of the Mississippi railway commission, said to a Stan reporter today: talked with a good many of our folks (demo-| crats) while over there and I have no manner of doubt that Mr. Cleveland is going to carry New York by a large majority. The men wlio op- posed Mr. Cleveland's nomination are taking a very active part in the campaign, and as an indication of the perfect restoration of har- mony and of the confidence Mr. Cleveland has in them it may be « y looking over the com- mittee list that a very large proportion of the @umittee and mos? of the very active leaders in charge of the campaign are men who were not favorable to Mr. Cleveland’s nomination in Chicago. ‘The fact that they are made so prom- inent in the campaign and that they are per- sonally as active and as mnch interested in it as they are is sufficient indication that all sec- tions of the party are united in a determina- tion that the ticket shall succeed. I have no doubt at all after what Ihave seen and heard that Mr. Cleveland will carry New York by a large majority. == e+ THE JOHNSON ISLAND CASE.

Contractor Clark was before the Commis- sioners at a special meeting of the board today discussing the “arbage situstion. He stated that he hac ty-eight teams in the garbage service today. His principal difficulty in col- lecting the garbage was the fact that house- holders do not respond to the calls of the gar- bage collectors. The Commissioners realized the importance of this difficulty and sent at once for Assistant Attorney Thomas. When he arrived the sub- Ject was considered at length, together with the advisability of issuing a police regulation pro- viding a penalty of fine by a proceeding in the Police Court against all householders who neglect for any unreasonable period have the garbage accessible to the collectors. Attorney Thomas was of the opinion that the Commissioners had the power to make such a regulation and at their request will prepare one at once. The Commissioners were informed that all garbage in Baltimore is collected daily by forty teams and that that is possible because ail garbage is accessible to the collectors. Chief Clerk Bailey, who was present at the hearing, stated that many of the complaints which been investigated have no founda tion in fact, and are from houses containing residents. The contractor before the hearing closed avowed his intention to remove all the garbage without respect to the cost to him,and the Com- missioners replied that they would insist upon a compliance with his contract. Apropos of the complaints received by the Commissioners and ot) officials, Contractor Clark submitted the following letter in relation to the non-collection of garbage: “I wish to report upon a special and import- ant case of trouble with garbage, which isa sample of ma “Dr. A. B.C. Clements writes to the President of the U d States as follows: . 18 N street northwest (Mrs. Gottwall’s) ‘the garbage collector has not collected since | July There are in the premises now five wooden buckets and boxes filled with putrid vegetable matter.

Mrs. Kaylar is ill of malaria, At No. 14 N street a child, Joe Peters, has been at death's door with dysentery. Thirty or more children in the immediate ‘neighborhood are in danger. At No. 20 N street northwest, Mr. Haas, there isa large receptacle overflow. | 974 no business will be ing with the most offensive vegetable matter. “This would indicate a serious state of affairs. The health officer matter. Mr. Slye stated that he knew all about it; that the garbage had been collected when- ever the men could get in; that we were not permitted to b: open the gates, and that while we did it in some instances it'was unin- the of ments. Finaily the chief clerk, Mr. Ba entire alley August 1, excepting Nos. 20 and 22, and that it took a long time and vers persistent effort to get in. When they did get in they found the garbage as bad as reported. I re- spectfully ask that Mr. Bailey aud Mr. Slye be called before your honors and questioned re- garding the matter. COMPLAINTS INCREASING. During the twenty-four hours ending at 1 o'clock today there were received at the health office 180 complaints respecting the non-re- moval of garbage, or forty-five more than were received ‘during the "twenty-four hours ending at 1 o'ciock yesterday, an in- crease of just 25 per cent.” Of this number 98 were recorded on the complaint book at the health office. 45 were received by tele- phone and recorded under the head “anc mous.” arid 37 were received through the police department. 5 ‘As was the case yesterday, the complaints made today mentioned the fact that the non- appearance of the garbage collectors ran from Uays to weeks, in rome cases no collector hay- ng been seen for a month. ck games THE FREE QUARTERS.
