Boating matters are already beginning to wake up In the city, and the weather of the past week or so makes the blood of the local oarsmen tingle to get out on the river. Already some of the Potomac men have been out on the water, and the Ana- lostan Club will be there also in a short time. The Potomac Boat Club is the first or- ganization to start things moving for the season. They held their regular monthly meeting last night, outlining several plans for the year, and taking some important steps for the interest of the club and the sport in this city. The report of Treasurer Warden showed that the club had paid off every debt outstanding and had, moreover, a handsome surplus in the treasury, but the big event of the meeting was the vote of the club authorizing the captain, Mr. John Hadley Doyle, to Immediateiy pur- chase a new eight-oared shell. The cost of the shell, including the expense of its transportation, which is, of course, very heavy, will not fall below $700 in all prob- ability. Capt. Doyle will muster a senior four and a junior eight this spring. The junior crew will probably be taken from Oliver, Roulette, Exner, Rohrer, Gaddis, Johnson, Jones, Von Dachenhausen, Quin, J. and W. Nolan, Spurgeon and Mavis. Fitzpat- rick will likely be the coach. On the 2ist of this month the Potomacs will bold a meeting to perfect the arringements for converting the club into a joint stock com- pany. At the A At the recent meeting of the Analostan Boat Club all the old officers were re-elect- ed to serve another year, and three new men were elected to the board of govern- ors. The re-elected officers are Samuel W. Maddox, president; Richard ‘airo, vice president; Augustus Crane, jr., treasurer; F. W. Flowers, financial secret W. W. Boarman, recording sec! Marshall, Howard Goodrich and Robertson were elected to the board governors to serve a three years’ ‘There On and lieutenants will be selected, after which the club expects to pick out its erews and get down to work. They expect to get their float out by April 1, and will bave a sentor and junior four and a jrnior eight to represent the club this summor. The organization of a Potomac river navy will probably be the next thing in order. The idea, first suggested by Capt. Doyle of the Potomacs, has been welcomed b the oarsmen, and the Potomac and Analostan clubs have both appointed committees to confer with each other in regard to the matter. As soon as the Columbia Club names a committee, a joint meeting will be called and the scheme pushed right through.

The Analostans have appointed L.A.Fischcr, Harry McKenny and R. Ross Perry, jr., to represent them in the question. - > To Get Damages. Thanks to the sense of equity of the Mext- can government, the State Department has finally succeeded in adjusting and providing for the settlement of the claim of Mrs. Janet M. Baldwin of San Francisco for the killing of her husband in Mexico about six years ago. Baldwin was a miner, and was killed by outlaws while on the way to his claim, Although a nation can hardly be held accountuble for sueh a A due diligence is used to keep the pes preserve the lives of sojourning foreiy \the Department of State succeeded in im= | pressing the Mexican government with the | belief that the claim of the widow was a Just and equitable one, although the amouut of the 2Mowance ‘vill probably be reduced from $1000, originally claimed, to one- i | fourth of the amount.

Mr. Paul T. Bowen of Washington, who | was, in 1887, chairman of the committee on legislation of the general assembly of the Knights of Labor, and is prominent in that order, has written Chairman McGann of the committee, opposing the bill. He says the bill has been thoroughly discussed py the laboring people, but has few supporters, a majority considering it wiser to continue the department as an independent bureau rather than to make a political office of it.

He thought it would be out of place for him to make such a statement now. Mr. Mattingly said that now was the proper time under the authorities and the only time when such an objection as he raised could be made. This was the first case in his expe-teuce in any important case where depositions were taken right up to the time of the trial. Mr. Carlisie said most of the depositions referred to would be, as he was informed, offered in rebuttal. He renewed again hi waiver of any right the plaintiff might have on account of the time the objection was made. Mr. Mattingiy insisted that they had a right to a ruling before the trial proceeded. Nothing for the Court to P On. Judge Bradley said the objection seemed to be raised on a pure hypothesis. The dep- ositions were not taken by an officer of the court or were not in any way before the court. There were many contingencies that might prevent them reaching the court. If offered objection could »e mude, but at present there was nothing for the court to pass upon. The Plaintif™s Objections. Mr. Wilson next took the floor. He said the plaintiff desired to object to a large number of depositions taken by the de- fendant, in fact, to all, upon the grounds that the testimony given was wholly ir- relevant, and, secondly, that a great deal of it was hearsay. He gave notice in ad- vance of this objection. Mr. Mattingly said that this was merely an Objection to the competency of the testimony to be considered when the testi- mony was offered. Then there was a halt in the proceedings while the lawyers went over the jury lists and held little conversations, Mr. Butter- worth and his silver-haired client took no | special interest in this proceeding and chat- ted together in an andectone, Mr. Rreck- inridge stroked and pulled his beard, and oceasionally smiled, showing a handsome set of teeth. At last the little consultations were over, jthe baili silenced ihe buxz of conversation by rapping on the edge of the judge's bench, and Clerk Hodges called the names of twelve men selected as a jury, and as their names were called they took ‘their seats on the raised platform at the judge's right provided for the jury. The jury was se- lected on the plan known as the “long panel” plan. Twenty names were drawn from the jury box and the list of twenty v submitted to counsel on both sides, each side having the privilege of striking off four, The Jury Chosen. The twelve names left—the twelve men who will have to try the case—were as fol- |lows: Sidney G. Hunt, Andrew M. Green, | Albert R. Cator, Allen Dale, Lewis C. Den- ham, James L.

The Commissioners today received a let- ter from the Secretary of State relative to the establishment of hospitals for conta- gious diseases in foreign capitals. It for- wards the following letter from Austri: “The isolation of persons affected with contagious diseases is one of the first meas-! ures adopted in Austria, in order to prevent | further spreading of the disease. In view of the fact that perfect isolation within the Place of domicile of the patient is possible only in an insufficient manner, owing to the confined space of the localities at the dis- posal of the family, instructions were 1 sued that such sick persons should be tran: ferred for treatment to a hospital. The more the necessity of early isolation in the first stage of a contagious disease became apparent to the population the quicker and easier took place the transfer of such sick persons to isolated hospital care. Small- pox, and more recently the danger of intro- duction and spread of cholera, have given the impulse to the erection of numerous buildings for the reception and isolation of Persons affected with contagious diseases. “Nearly all the public and the greater num- ber of private hospitals in Austria are pro- vided with localities, or connected with greater or smaller buildings, isolated from the other wards, where persons affected with contagious diseases can be treated. As the number of such institutions, however, is a limited one, when compared with the number of communities,and as the principle prevails not to send such sick persons from one community to another without a permit from the authorities, 1t follows that these institutions could not be made available in case of necessity, and the political authori- tles, therefore, ordered that every com- munity should, if practicable, possess a building completely isolated or that two communities bordering on each other should at least have one building in common, in order that the first case of an infectious disease, and, in the course of the epidemic, those persons who have homes and could find no proper care or who could not be left with their families without endangering the latter, might properly be taken care of. A large number of such hospitals have been built during the last ten years, and during the years 1892 and 18% it was not only the imminent danger of cholera which added in great measure to the increase of their num- ber, but also the fact that in the greater part of the provinces of Austria the ex- penses of maintaining these hospitals for the reception of cholera and other patients will be paid from public funds and that the communities will be reimbursed. In the year 1805, for instance, there was, of 335 communities in the Bukowina only one without its own hospital; in Karnthen, of 231 communities, only twelve, and in lower Austria (not including Vienna) of 1,611 communities, only 125. Maint. ed by Each Community. “With the exception of the ‘Franz Josefs’ Hospital at Vienna, which, with its an- exes, was built from the general hospital fund, these hospitals are, throughout, hos- pitals belonging to the respective communt- ties, and built and maintained by them. In the Bukowina and Galicia legislative power granted to the communities pecuniary ald for the erection of such hospitals. In dense- ly-populated localities with a fluctuating populatior these institutions are now to be found, almost without exception; in com- munities, however, the population ef which is scattered over a large extent cf terri- tory and more stationary, such hospital: for isolation are yet wanting in many in- stances, “When building such institutions, which must be sanctioned by the political au- thority, perfect isolation of the persons in an effective manner will be enforced, pre- venting any possible danger of further spreading of the disease. Aside from this, the butlding must be situated at a distance from any town or village, and not in im- mediate vicinity of frequented roads of communication; it must also be supplied with the proper means of transportation, and must have at its disposition a sufficient staff of employes for nursing and attending on. the patients, which staff of employes is likewise to be kept isolated from contact | with the outside population. Many of these hospitals, modeis and plans of the inner ar- |Tangements of which have, in some pro- j Yinces, been furnished, are surrounded by a | fence to keep visitors at a distance. “Particular importance is attached to the keeping on hand of a steam disinfecting apparatus, either stationary or movable, or at least some improvised method for dis- infecting by steam. “The large isolated hospitals, such as the Franz Josefs Hospital at Vienna, have an- nexed to them special outhouses furnished with the necessary comfort, where patients with means can be accommodated on pay- ment of fixed rates. “The experience which has so far been gained in these epidemi2 isolation hospitais speaks highly in their favor and shows that in many instances they have materially | aided in checking further spread of con- tagious diseases, especially when the first | case could be successfully ascertained, traced to its source and isolated in hospital, when it was very rarely followed by others, or, at least, only by a few sporadic cases, when the infection had taken place before the Patient had been admitted to the hos- pital. “Transmission of contagious diseases from such hospitals took place only in very few | instances, and only when contrary to regu- | lations traffic of the inmates of the hospital with the outer world had not been sufficiently supervised. | “The immediate surroundin, ple living in the vicinity of exposed to no danger by this close prox- imity, provided the isolation is perfect and the interruption of communication ts kept up in the proper manner. ‘Nothing is known as to whether the trans- | port of sick persons to the hospitals is ac- | companied by fatal results. In Vienna, where the Franz Josefs Hospital, destined to recetve patients infected with contagious diseases, is situated, on the southern out- skirts of the extended city mits, and where | the transport of patients from’ the north- } ern and eastern districts, even when effected | in carriages, requires comparatively speak- ing a long time, any unfavorable result of | such removal has not been obs-rved" Infection Hospitals in Hungary. A memorandum of the ministry of the in- terior of Hungary is appended as follow “Referring to the establishment of hos- pitals for infectious diseases, I have the honor to report that almost every town and | @rser place in Hungary has a stationary hospital for infectious diseases, which are | invariably located on the outskirts of such town or village.

Chief Parris of the fire department has recommended that Police Surgeon Percy Hickling make a report explaining his action in not attending Private Dixon on the night he was taken sick. From the re- port in the case it seems that Dr. Hickling was telephoned for and replied he did not know how to get to the engine house, but would visit the patient the next morning, and asked if he could do without him until then. The patient replied that he would try. The doctor called the next moraing The Western High School. The Commissioners this morning gave aM audience to @ delegation of citizens from Georgetown, composed of Messrs. Jesse H. Wilson, William A. Gordon and E. P. Berry, that called to urge the favorable considera- tion at the hands of the Commissioners of the proposition to build a Western High School. The Commissioners promised to Co all in their power to get the appropriation, and later sent the letter of Trustee Wilson, which has heretofore appeared in The Siar, to Chairman Compton of the subcommittee on appropriations, with the following €x- planation: “The Commissioners believe their recom- mendations made in their estimates for the next fiscal year for graded school buildings should be considered and favorably acted upon; but in connection with said. recom- mendation they believe that the erection of a high school building for the fifth division is urgently needed, und they will be greatly gratified if an appropriation should be made therefor. They have not had a full oppor- tunity to consider the exact amount needed, but believe that $100,000 would not be ex- cessive.” Must Connect With the New Sewer. Captain Derby in a letter to the Engineer Commissioner today states that the oid sewer on the north side of Kast Capitol street between 34 and 4th streets is not in good sanitary condition and a new sew- er has been constructed to take its place. Owners of abutting property should con- nect with the new sewer as promptly as possible, in order that the old one may be cleaned eit and abandoned. Such con- rections have invariably been made by owners at their own expense and there are no appropriations made by Congress against which such connections can prop- erly be charged. Teday’s Orders. ‘The Commissioners today ordered that the roadway at the intersection of G and 14th streets northwest be graded, and cost of same paid from appropriation for cur- rent repairs to streets, avenues and alleys. That the proposal of James H. McGill to furnish 450 barrels of Portland cement at bidder's warehouse at $2.29 per barrel is accepted. That fire plugs be erected at the north- west corner of Kirby street and New York avenue and at alley on north side of M street between 9th and 10th streets north- west. That a sewer be constructed in the south side of P street northwest to serve houses 704 and 706 under the provisions of the permit system. That a sewer be constructed in the west side of 34 street northwest between P and Q streets, under the provisions of the per- mit system. Erecting a Frame Structure. The attention of the Commissioners has been called to an alleged violation of the building regulations by the erection of a frame kitchen in the rear of 1346 41-2 street southwest. It is stated that the work of construction is done in the early morning and late in the evening to avoid the penaity of the law. The building inspector has been ordered to look inte the matter. Gas Payments. Relative to the protest of the Washing- ton Gas Light Company against a deduc- tion for defective lighting, the Commissivn- ers yesterday transmitted a copy of the at- torney’s opinion, and add that the penalty of two cents per hour must apply for con- sumption of three feet per hour or less, and state that no payment will be made for a consumption of less than six feet per hour. Bal ing Permits. The following building permits were s- sued by the inspector of buildings yester- day. Fred M. Herrmann, to erect a three-story brick dwelling at 522 8th street southeast, to cost $5,000, Robert F. Bradbury,to evect two two-story — dwellings at Twining City, to cost Miscellaneous. The attorney for the District has been or- dered to investigate the case of Plumber J. J. McCann, who is continuing business without a license. When Col. Truesdell Will Report.
