GREENHALGE DEAD. One of the Most Highly Esteemed Men of Massachusetts. Gov. Greenhalge cled at midnight at Lowell, Mass. Frederic Thomas Greenkalge was born at Clitheroe, near Lancaster, England, July 19, 1842. His father came to this country in 1854, settling in Lowell, and young Greenhalge entered the public schools in that city, winning credit as a scholar and speaker. s He entered Harvard College in 1859, his educational course, hcwever, being cut short by the death of his father. He earned his living as a teacher in 1862 and 1868, and meanwhile studied law. In 1863 he enlisted in the army, and for two years was con- nected with the commissary’s department at Newbern, N. C. After the war he re- turn-d to Lowell and was admitted to the bar. He stumyed ‘he state for Horace Greeley, the democratic nominee for President in 1872, but returned to the republican party in 1876, and ever afterward remained with- in that party. He served two years in the House of Representatives, and in 1881 was a candidate for state senator, but was efcated. He was mayor of Lowell in 1880 and 1881, and in 1868 was elected to the Fifty-first Congress. In 169) he was re- nominated, but failed of election, being defeated by Moses T. Stevens, democrat. While in Corgress he was regarded as a fluent speaker, and was frequently beard on the floor of the House. He was a dele- gate to the nationa’ republican convention of 1834, ard in 1890 was chairman of the repub.ican stete convention. In 1993 he was elected governor of the state, as the successor cf Willlam E. Rus- sell, and, according to state custom, was re-elected in 1894 and 1895. Personally no man was better Mked in the commonwealth. In Lowell, his home, he was regarded by every one as a friend. As an after-dinner speaker he was likened by many to Depew. His speeches were characterized by shrewdness and clean-cut, genial wit. He Ikewise had a wonderful tact that enabled him to seize upon the roints most pleasing to the audience he might be addres:ing. +o. —___ THE COURTS.

Barkman, the insurance agent of Roseville, N. J., who was blown from a Lehigh Valley train Tuesday while cross- ing the Hackensack meadows, was resting easily in the hospital in Jersey City yester- day, and the doctors said he would prob- ably recover. His hip was dislocated, and he was injured internally. Mr. Barkman was for several years, until last spring, the’ principal of one of the public schools in Hackensack, resigning that position to accept an agency in the Travelers’ Insur- ance Company. Another person was blown from a train yesterday, Miss Lillian Strauss, an art can- vasser. She was on the Middletown ex- press, on the New York, Susquehanna and Western railroad, which left Jersey City at 8:30 o'clock. While the train was on the embankment north of the bridge crossing the Erie tracks, at West End, she attempt- ed to go from one car to another. She grasped the hand rail to steady herself, bt a moment later let go to hold on her hat. As she did so she was swept off the plat- form. A scream she uttered in falling at- tracted the attention of some other passen- gers, who notified the conductor, and the train was stopped and backed to a place where she lay fn a ditch beside the track. She was insensible, and was placed on the train and taken to Hackensack. There she was conveyed to the office of the house physician of the Hackensack Hospital, who found that she had been badly cut about the head by thin ice. She was able to re- turn home two hours later. —__ Ex-Chairman Campbell's Death. ‘William J.

[VIGOROUS VOICES Mt, Pleasant Citizens Discuss Com- munity Needs ANTAGONISM 0 OVERHEAD WIRES Early Extension of Street Rail way Lines Demanded. ENLARGEMENT OF CITY LIMITS —_——e Street railways and overhead wires were the matters of greatest interest before the meeting of the Mt. Pleasant Citizens’ Associ- ation last evening. The extension of the city limits was also considered and unanimously favored, as was a proposed extension of the fire limits. Speedy action in the matter of a railway to the western section of the vil- lage was urged upon the Commissioners and Congress, and again a protest was.entered against overhead wires. Mr. Zellers reported that the net sum of $21.25 had been received from the sale of the effects of the village volunteer fire de- partment, donated to the association by the organization. In that connection Presi- dent Somerville suggested that the truck and hose carriage be loaned to the Tenley- town volunteer fire department, and he was authorized to make the loan. From the committee on street railways, Chairman Chapin Brown said that it seemed that the matter of extending a street rail- way line to the Zoo and Rock Creek Parks remains just where it was before the confer- ence between the District Commissioners and the railroad authorities. The Commis- sioners favored a route north on 19th street to Howard avenue, thence east on Howard avenue to 17th street, thence south to Fior- ida avenue. The Railroads Not Suited. The railroads did not favor that route, and it seemed that the present session of Con- gress will expire without the passage of the necessary bill. Then, too, the railroads seek- ing to reach the two parks objected to the Commissioners’ proposal that they acquire lands. They would not purchase land for the purpose, proposing to extend their lines only on existing streets and highways. He thought that the Commissioners should set- tle upon some route, and so report to Con- gress, that it might quickly settle the matter. At a recent meeting of his committee, said Mr. Brown, the following route had been recommended: From Florida avenue along either Isth or 19th street or Columbia road (if by Columbia road or 19th street, by single track thereon) to Columbia road and 19th street, thence by 17th street to Kenesaw avenue, thence along Kenesaw avenue and Park highway to the entrance 6f Zoo, thence along 19th street to Howard avenue, thence along Howard avenue to 17th street, thence south to Florida avenue. - A Resolution of Instruction. Mr. Brown also reported a resolution re- questing the Commissioners to report as speedily as possible to Congress in the mat- ter, the association believing that the roads should be required to be built within one year That as far as practical existing highways should be used, but if not the com- pany being granted the right should be re- quired to acquire the right of way, and that said right of way should be transferred to the District should the same be needed in the future for a public thoroughfare. The repert, so far as it related to the route proposed, led to considerable discus- sien, the sense of the meeting being unan- imous in the desire of the speedy construc- tion of a railrofid to Mt. Pleasant, and the Zov and Rock Creek parks, although there Was some difference of opinion as to the best route. The report was, however, final- ly unanimously adopted. Against Overhead Wircs. Mr. Nick Young offered the following res- olution: “Whereas, a bill, H. R. 5758, has been introduced to authorize extension of the lines of the Potomac Light and Power Company, and, whereas, the Commission- ers have suggested sundry amendments which are not satisfactory to us, and which do not give us sufficient protection against the stringing of overhead wires in that it is left to the discretion of the Commission- ers without regard to the owners of prop- erty frorting on the streets along which it is proposed to erect poles and string ovcrhead wires, therefore, be it “Resolved,That this association urge upon Congress that the bill be amended as fol- lows: At the end of the second paragraph add the fcllowing: ‘That outside of the city limits and within the fire limits, as the same may.be fixed at the time of the pessage of this act, there shall be no over- head wires, except where the owners of a majority in assessed value of property in each square fronting on any street where said company may desire to construct over- head wires may, in writing, filed with the Commissioners of the District of Colum- bia, consent thereto, the Com: ioners of said District may in such case, at their discretion, grant permit for the erection of overhead wires in front of such square or squares.’ Satisfactory to the Company. President Somerville, in supporting the resolution, explained that he and President Ballinger of the Columbia Heights Citizens’ Association had yesterday held two con- ferences with President Oscar T. Crosby of the Potomac Light and Power Company, and he submitted a petition to be presented to Congress, in which a strong opposition to overhead wires in the two sections was expressed, unless the bill be amended in conformity to the resolution offered by Mr. Young. The amendment fs satisfac- tory not only to Mr. Crosby, explained Mr. Somerville, but that gentleman had signed an agreement in which he promised not to erect overhead wires in the two sections. The Commissioners’ substitute for the Sen ate bill Mr. Somerville objected to, believ- ing that it would amount to the very thing which is sought to be prevented. What the two asscciations object to Is the erec- tion of overhead wires anywhere within the existing or proposed fire limits. These limits, he believed, will be extended north- ward to Piney Branch and Spring roads. Street Extension Wanted. The resolution was unanimously adopted, and, aftér’ President Somerville had given notice that petitions praying for the pas- sage of the Richardson street extension bill will be placed in Carpenter and Epp- ley’s stores for signatures, the association, on the motion of Mr. Brown, recommended the erection of the contagious hospital on Analostan Island. Upon the motion of Mr. A. B. Chatfield, the association requested the extension of the city limits northward to Piney Branch and Spring roads, and upon the motion of Mr. H. D. Walbridge, the association urged Congress to apprcpriate not less than $10,000 for the further improvement of Ken- esaw avenue and the extension of the park- ing from Kenesaw avenue to Klingle Ford road. The association also unanimously approved the efforts being made to obtain $1 gas, either by the incorporation of the proposed xew company or the reduction by the existing companies. The following were elected to _member- ship in the assyciation: H. H. Twomley, Wm. A. Whitson and Charles Hampson. ——__ Improvements in Atlantic City. The new steel walk for At‘antic City is now an assured fact. The common council has decided to have the walk constructed and work will be begun in two weeks. The structure will extend along the ocean front and will be the finest in the country. It will cost upward of $100,000, ard an effort will be made to have it ready for the com- ing season. It is also preposed to build a $100,000 new city hall. The city Fall com- missioners were authorized to purchase a lot, formerly the site of the Grand Opera House, for $20,000. This is near the city hall, and when the purchase is made work on the new city hall will be begun. 4 Expenditures of the District.

The St. Louis Prelate Passes Away After a Long Period of Feeblenesn. Peter Richard Kenrick, who for nearly half a century prior to three years ago was Catholic arcabishop of St. Louis, died yes- terday in that city at 1:30, in the eighty- eighth year of his life. He bad been in feeble health for several years, and about two and a half years ago Bishop John J. Kain of Wheeling was elected to an arch- bishopric to relieve him, Archbishop Kenrick’s death will disar- range the elaborate preparations that had been made for the reception and enter- tainment of Cardinal Satolli, who was ex- pected to arrive next Morday morning. Curdinal Satolli will be apprised of the sad event, and his presence in the city will be in connection will the impressive burial services that wifl be given the dead prince of the church. Archbishop Kain, who was not present when death occurred, said that the funeral would take place Tuesday afternoon. “I have telegraphed Cardinal Gibbons and Archbishop Ryan regarding further ar- rangements,” said he, “and will not change the day unless they so desire. 1 will ar- range to have the remains laid in state at the cathedral Saturday.” ae eS Mayor Hooper Vetoes. Mayor Hooper of Baltin-ore last night sent in a message vetoing the ordinances passed by councils, depriving him of the appointing power, and councils, instead of passing the measures over the veto, as they claimed to be able to do, postponed ac- tion. Before adjourning councils rejected the nomination of Dr. J. F. McShane to be health officer and of Dr. Sydney O. Hets- kell to’ be quarantine officer. Both are democrats, and the mayor will be compelled to take further action in these cases, which have been the source of contention.
