THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D. C. FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1893. 7 EAST WASHINGTON CITIZENS. ‘The Assessment Question Creates a Lively Diesel Ome Part of the Assessor's Recom- mendation Appzoved, but the 10 per cent Reduction is Objected to. The regular monthly meeting of the East ‘Washington Citizens’ Association was held last evening at Baum’s Hall. Secretary A. FP. Sperry occupied the chair in the absence of President Babson, and Mr. F. A. Leh- mann acted as secretary. Under the call for committee reports Mr. F. A. Lehmann, from the committee on streets, stated that while he had no regular report to make, he desired to say that the list of streets that Capt. Fiebeger recom- mended for improvement included those recommended by the assoctation. Fifteenth street, he stated, was under way as far as Southeast Washington was concerned. He understood that members of the Northeast Citizens’ Association had opposed the im- provement of that street in the northeast- mn section. They made a great mistake, if such was the case. If this street were be a direct communica- Washington, ee was emin- ge nish tional railroad facilities, for the Columbia railroad would occupy the street by extending its line. East Washington wanted more railroads that was certain. He desired also to commend Capt. Fiebeger to the association as the most courteous, affable and efticient engineer officer the District ever had. Mr. M. 1. Weiler approved the foregoing, but called attention to the necessity of im- proving 19th street from East Capitol street to Maryland avenue. ‘The Question of Assessments. The call for the committee on assess- ments brought Mr. M. I. Weller to his fect He referred to the recent scheme of Asses- sor Trimble to allow a reduction of 10 per cent,to all tax-payers who paid their taxes November 1, and the postponement of the November half of the tax to May. He de- sired to put himself on record as being op- posed to a 10 per cent reduction, but was in favor of a postponement of the tirst half of the tax until May. He put his views in the form of a motion for the purpose uf getting the indorsement of the association. Mr. Wiliam Birney was opposed to the mo- tion. He thought the future was in doubt. It was not expedient to pass such a reso- lution of this magnitude without careful deliberation. As far as he was concerned, he would much prefer io take his chances in November. He thought the association should wait a little while until it was bet- ter informed as to monetary legislation. He moved that the consideration of this motion be delayed until the next meeting. Mr. C. M. Emerson did not see why the consideration of the motion should be post- poned. He had asked for a division upon the first vote with the idea of presenting an amendment inserting a discount of 5 per cent in lieu of 10 per cent for taxes paid in November. Mr. Weller said he was ready to put him- self on record as being in favor of a post- Ponement of the tax until May. If the con- sideration of his motion went over to the next meeting. {t would be of no avail. ‘the next meeting would be held within three weeks of the time for the first payment of the taxes. In the meantime, the Commis- sioners would have made whatever recom- mendation they intended to. p Mr. H. A. Curtis was in favor of the mo- tion of Mr. Weller, and Mr. Girouard thought the matter should go over until the Next meeting. The previous question being called for. the chair put the motion of Mr. Birney to Postpone the matter until the mext meet- ing. The motion was lost by a majority of two. Mr. Weller's motion, that the association indorse the recommendation of Assessor ‘Trimble relative to the postponement of the first haif of the tax untill May, was then unanimously approved. Opposed to the 10 Per Cent Reduction. The second motion, that the association oppose the proposed reduction of 10 per cent for all taxes paid November 1, was next called up. Mr. Emerson moved to in- sert a reduction of 5 per cent, but receiving Ro second to his motion a vote was called for. Gen. Wm. Birney thought if the associa- tion approved one portion of the recom- Mendation it should indorse it all. He was {a doubt as to the effect upon the revenues, and wanted to know if there would be a deficit, which would affect improvements. Mr. "Weiler stated in reply that there would be no embarrassment whatever. The treasury was in the habit of advancing money, and would continue to do so. If such @ nefarious proposition as allowing a discount of 10 per cent on taxes paid No- vember 1 prevailed it would be a disgrace to the city. People to avail themselves of such a discount would sacrifice the pay- ment of all other debts. Mr. H. A. Curtis thought a discount of 10 per cent would only benefit the rich, and it would be class legislation in favor of the rich man If such a thing prevailed. ‘The presiient pro tem stated that the as- sociation should not put itse‘f on record as indorsing the proposition of Mr. Weller op- posing the discount of 1 per cent on taxes paid in November, as recommended by t assessor, until each gentleman had spoken on_the subject. The question was put, and Mr. Weller’s motion prevailed. The association there- fore puts Itself on record as being opposed to the 10 per cent discount. Gen. Birney raised the point of no quo- rum voting, but the chair ruled that the question had heen settled, and the point of no quorum could only be raised as far as ft affected future business. A lively par- Mamentary colloquy followed, and Gen. Birney appealed. There being a_quorum present when the vote was taken Gen. Bir- ney’s appeal was lost. Messrs. Weller and Walker having withdrawn from the meet. ing Gen. Birney renewed his point of no quorum. He withdrew his point, however, end substitute? a motion to adjourn, which was carried. The chair stated that at the meeting In October the election of officers and the filline of two vacancies on the ex- ecutive committee would come up, and he hoped there would be a large attendance. > — THE ENCAMPMENT ENDS.

Stanley, retired, to be gov- ernor of the Soldiers’ Homeof the District of Columbia, in place of Gen. Kelton, de- As indicated in yesterday's Star, the Sec- retary of the Navy has issued a general order severely reprimanding the officers responsible for the ‘leplorable condition of the cruiser Atlanta when she was put out of commission at the Norfolk navy yard about a month ago. The Secretary says that the fire that occurred on the vessel while in harbor at Norfolk was the result of carelessness on the part of Capt. Fa- ward E. Potter, then commandant of the Norfolk navy yard; Capt. John R. Bart- lett and Chief Engineer Hugh H. Cline, United States navy, ute of the Atlanta. “The neglect which resulted in the fire,” says the Secretary, “appears to have been due chiefly, if not wholly, to a desire on the part of those in authority on board the At lanta to get rid of the vessel as soon as possible by turning her over to the navy yard authorities. “The court properly fixes the responsi- bility for the fire upon the officers herein- before named, but it appears to the depart- ment, If the evidence is to be relied on, that others not named In the report of the court are indirectly responsible therefor, through carelessness in not making a prop- er inspection of the ship before and after she was placed out of commision. “The department refrains from naming such persons in this general order only in consideration of the fact that the court failed to fix the measure of their responsi- bility for the action.” The conduct of Chief Engineer Philip Inch, United States navy, who was named by the court for his fallure t» comply with a regulation which provides that the senior engineer at the navy yard shall take charge of the machinery of « vessel when her senior engineer is detached, Is referred to by_Mr. Herbert as most remarkable Capt. Bartlett is criticized for making perfunctory inspections of the ship and re- porting to the department that her condi- tion was satisfactory. Chief Engineer Cline is also taken to task for neglecting his duty. Secretary Herbert concludes his order as follows: “Under all the cireums-aaces above stated the officers named in the report are re- sponsible for the fire and for the condition in which the ship was found and are richly deserving of a court-martial. It is only because of the fact that {t would be diffi- cult, if not impracticable, to bring to trial all of the parties whom the department deems responsible, and in some measure because of the opinion expressed by the court of inquiry that no further proceed- ings are necessary, that further judicial proceedings are not institu: “The foregoing general order is published to the service and will be read to the ofM- cers and crew of every vessel in the navy in commission, as required by article 265 of the United States naval regulations. In giving this wide: circulation the de- partment hopes tMat such a condition cf affairs as has been \liscovered on board the United States steamer Atlanta will never again exist on board a vessel in the Ameri- can navy.’ DISTRICT IN CONGRESS. Geological Survey. Representative W. J. Stone has prepared a bill, which he will introduce by request in the House tomorrow, appropriating $193,- 000 for the purchase of lots 1 and 2, square 529, with the houses thereon, for the use of the géological survey. It is provided that the property may be obtained by condemna- tion proceedings, if not otherwise. Justices of the Peace. Representative Stockdale will introduce in the House tomorrow the bill offered in the Senate at the last session by = ae of Oregon extending the jurisdiction of Nustices of the peace in’ the District of Columbia. Form of Deeds. Mr. Heard will introduce in the House tomorrow the bill prepared by the District Commissioners simplifying the form of deeds to be used in the District. Bill to simplify the forms of deeds of conveyance, &c., to Mr. Faulkner. Bill_to incorporate the National Light and Fuel Company to Messrs. Martia and tor. water mains and sewers to Mr. Proctor.

Faulkner, McMillin and Senator Peffer’s university bill was re- ported back to the Senate and referred to the committee on national university. Bills Referred. ‘The Senate District committee held a meeting this morning and referred to sub- committees all the bills before tt. The fol- lowing references were made: Bill to extend North Capitol street to the Soldiers’ Home to Messrs. McMillin, Faulk- ner and Harris. Ss Bill_to incorporate the Washington Trac- tion Company to Messrs. Hunton, Gallinger and Martin. Se ‘Today's Nominations. Henry M. Smythe of Virginia, nominated to be minister to Haytl, 1s 2 well-known democrat of his state and has for some time been the editor of the Graham Head- light, a democratic newspaper. Some time ago he was appointed consul to one of the Chinese ports, but the nomtnation at the suggestion of the State Department was held up by the Senate, pending an effort on the part of the administration to get Mr. Smythe to consent to go to Haytl. He is very highly spoken of by the Senator and members of the lower house from his state. ‘Mr. Ellis Mills of Virginia is a citizen of Lynchburg and went with Mr. Blount to Hawai} when he undertook his mission as the special commissioner of the President. Mr. Mills has become conversant with the affairs pf the islands, and his nomination as consul’ general appears to be in the line of promotion. He was a State Department clerk before he went abroad, and had acted as private secretary to Secretary Bayard, and the department thought that his exper- lence would make him the best man for the place. The nomination of Mr. Theodore Runyon of New Jersey to be ambassador of the United States to Germany is simply the elevation of his present rank of minister plenipotentiary to correspond with the change in this country of the German le- gation to an embassy. ———s Army Orders. A board of officers to consist of Col. Jo- seph C. Baily, assistant surgeon general; Maj. Calvin De Witt, surgeon, and Maj. Henry M. Cronkhite, surgeon, 1s appointed to meet at San Antonio, Texas, for the ex- amination of such officers as may be or- dered before it with a view of determining their fitness for promotion. Capt. Henry S. Kilbourne, assistant sur- geon, will report to the board for examina- tion. + oe Silver Purchases. ‘There were offered for sale to the treas- ury today 115,000 ounces of silver at prices varying from 7% to 76 cents an ounce. The whole amount declined at the prices ked and a counter offer of 741-2 cents made. ee “My Trip to Montreal.” Tonight at the M. P.

Senator Proctor Gets Back at Mr. Wolcott on the Question of Maple Sugar. THE SENATE. The resolution offered yesterday by Mr. Wolcott (Col.) calling for information as to the bounty paid on maple sugar having been laid before the Senate, Mr. Wolcott ex- pressed regret at the brusqueness of his re- sponse to Mr. Gallinger yesterday, and sald that he wished now to modify his resolu- tion in accordance with Mr. Gallinge:’s suggestion—to cover all kinds of sugar. He thereupon modified his resolution accord- ingly; and it was agreed to, but not before Mr. Proctor (Va.) had discharged some shafts of ridicule at the junior Senator from Colorado. Maple sugar, he said, added a peculfarly tempting flavor to certain mixed commodities which made them very tempt- ing to the wayward appetite.’ (Laughter.) ‘The Senator from Colorado would proba- bly ask that the government should take the whole product, have it coined into suit- able cakes, and put up another proper sub- sidiary package to be given to Senators and Representatives for distribution among their constituents. It woul! not re- quire to have stamped upon it “In Gol we trust,” nor would it be made legal tender by law. He would guarantee that It would pass current on its intrinsic value. (Laigh- ter.) Mr. Faulkner's Speech. The Senate then, at 12:30, on motion of Mr. Voorhees (Ind.), and without objec- tion, resumed the consideration of the House bill to repeal the purchasing clauses of the Sherman act, and was addressed by Mr. Faulkner (W. Va.) Mr. Tarpie on Bimetallism. After Mr. Faulkner closed his speech the floor was taken by Mr. Turple (dem. Ind.), who addressed the Senate in favor of the principle of bimetallism. + © +_____. PREMIUMS AT ROCKVILLE. Prizes for Poultry Awarded at the Fatr. Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. ROCKVILLE, M4., Sept. §—After the immense crowd of yesterday the attendance at the agricultural fair this morning looked rather small, although there were a good number in attendance.

Confiict With the Military in English Mining Districts. LONDON, Sept. &—Dispatches from Pon- tefract this morning say that one miner was killed and another was mortally wound- ed in a fight there between the troops and the strikers. ‘The rioters. were out all night destroying property ana Aghting the military and po- lce. They burned the wooden bridge over the colliery railway to Lord Masham’s prop- erty. The full military and police force was on duty without pause until § a.m. today. At 5 o'clock the rioters had been brought under temporary control. Most of the mob have been scattered, but they are likely to reassemble at any hour. In the neignbornooa of Wakefield, West Riding of Yorkshire, the mine owners are panic stricken. Last night the rioters went fom pit to pit wrecking the bulldings and often setting fire to the ruins. ‘The damage done before daybreak amounts to thous- ands of pounds. ‘Troops were called for this morning by the authorities, as rioters had gathered near the town and the police were too weak to disperse them. Shortly after toon mob of strikers began to pillage shops and taverns in the suburbs. The troops had not arrived and the police ‘were scat- tered by the rioters. The whole district around the town Is now in the hands of the miners. The saloons have been plundered and many of the miners are drunk. The respectable resi- dents of Wakefield are terrified, and re- Peated requests for troops have been made this afternoon by the authorities, who fear that in the absence of a strong force the whole town may be given over to pillage tonight. ——— Personal Mention. Mr. Paul Hallam started yesterday for a three weeks’ stay at Cincinnati and the world’s fair. Mr. M. Swatzel, professor of Greek and Latin at the Eastern High School, 1s now in Oregon. He will return to this city in time to take his place at the opening of school. Mr. Robert G. Campbell and Mr. Rudolph Courant of Washington, D.

Place o: the Program— Although the details of the arrangements for the centennial celebration of the laying of the corner stone of the Capitol are well in hand, yet as the time draws near there is considerable activity at executive com- mittee headquarters. Yesterday afternoon Mr. John Joy Edson, chairman of the finance committee, had a conference with Chairman Gardner. The subscriptions are coming in, if not so rapidly or in such large amounts as could be wished, at least in gratifying numbers and it is believed that there will be sufficient funds to carry out all the plans of the executive committee. This morning Chairman Spear of the Parade committee was at executive head- quarters looking after matters corrected with the organizations that will participate in the line of march. Owing to the accident to Commissioner Ross he will not be able to nake the ad- dress in behalf of the District of Columbia as he had intended to do and Commissioner Myron M. Parker will take his place cn the program. Chairman Thomas W. Smith cf the com- mittee on railroad rates has recetved a let- ter from the Trunk Line Assoctition of Radrosds announcing that a fare and @ been as the - trip tickets. Sys re ie members of the executive committee are gratified at the progress made by the great centennial chorus. The rehearsals in the various subdivisions are going on actively and last night about Seventy-five members of the Mount Vernon division attended the rehearsal at the Mount Vernon, Methodist Church. The Hyattsville section gave ly attended rehearsal in the lecture Foon of the Presbyterian Church there. Prof. Clow- ard, the director-in-chief of the centennial chorus, was present with several Washing- ton singers and personally conducted the rehearsal. The Alexandria division also held a largely attended rehearsal last night, under Assistant Director Gambrill. Tonight there will be rehearsals of the entire divis- fon, under Conductor W. 8. McArthur, in the First Congregational Church and ‘the Anacostian division at Emanuel Church, under charge of Assistant Director John A. Roeder. The public rehearsal at Convention Hall next Wednesday evening is already exciting widespread interest. —— THE HOUSE NAVAL COMMITTEE. Chatr: Cummings Has Completed '# Organization—The Subcommittees.
