BUTTERWORTH FEELS SORE Tt 1s sald by the friends of ex-Congress- min Benjamin Butterworth of Ohfo, who is thd leading counsel for the defense in the d-Breckinridge trial, that he regrets lingly that he entered the o Colonel Breckinridge and Major Dutterworth were for several years members of the louse appropriations committee together. True, the one was a democrat and the other was a republican, but they were warm personal friends. It is a predominating feature of Butterworth's character to sympathize with persons. He is a Quaker, an old-fashioned man, with newfangled ideas, and his friends say he has sympathized deeply with h friend Breckinridge ever since the suit filed against him. When “Colonel Totten grew ill and went south, the fendant in this celebrated case had no head for his large array of legal talent. Butter- worth was not then in sight, but he soon appearcd after the vacancy was created by Tottten's absence. His friends intimate that Butterworth tendered his services, and gratuitously. However that may be, he took Totten’s place promptly, and has worked like a beaver. From time to time during weeks it has been intimated gressman Butterworth has wished himself out of the case. He entered it with so little notice as to be unfamiliar with the line of defense. Soon after he got hold of the he found that his client wass running it. He was changing policies and creating new ones without notice to his attorneys, until, it is #aid, Major Butterworth feels disappolnted, chagrined and wishes he had never heard of the He had no idea that the defense was half so derrading and the lines of de- fense 50 revolting and unmanly. DEMAGOGICAL DEMOCRATS, The democrats are laying the foundation, in their appropriation bills, for the campaign of 1 It is their purpose to raise the cry of “billion-dollar congress,” or apply some equally lurid epithet to the congress which will be elected next November, because it will be required to make good the deficiencies in_appropriations which the democrats in this congress are creating by design. It would appear absurd that a party in control of a_branch or both branches of con- gress should deliberately refuse to appropri- ate enough money to meet the nece s of the government for the sole purpose of com- peliing its successor to increase appropria- tions that it might be arraigned for so doing in the following campaign. Yet this is true. The democrats in the Fiftieth congress de- liberately refused to make suflicient appro- priations to pay the expenses of the govern- ment. knowing that the Fift or Reed, congress, would have to appropriate’ money to meet the deficiency, and then that congress could be arraigned on the stump for “ex- travagance.” This was the Holman plan. It mado no difference that the next congr the Fifty-second, appropriated nearly $50,- 000,000 more than the “billion-dollar” con- gress, the latter had to take the odium. The groundwork for 1896's demagogy is being laid in every appropriation bill. Millions and millions less than enough money to pay the expenses already provided for by law are being appropriated. At the next session of this congress, if the repubiicans secure con- trol of the next house at the electibns this fall—and the democrats are presaging th end by their present work—there will he still less money appropriated, and then the r publicans will have to make enormous ap- propriations and be charged with “extrav. gance' on the stump during the next presi- dential campaign. There is one weakne: predominant with a republican congress; it will_appropriate money to pay the honest debts of Uncle Sam. MERELY MENTIONED, Representative Pickler went before the house committee on rivers and harbors Loday and asked that an appropriation of $50,000 for the rectification of the banks and im- provement of the harbor at Pierre and Fort Picrre, 8.

Some time Thursday night a six-inch water main at Twentieth and Nicholas streets burst. Mayor Furay of the Board of Public Works detalled a gang of men to re- pair the leakage as quickly as possible. The water had been turned on but a few mo- ments when another break occurred within a few feet of the first one. This was re- paired and the water turnod on agaly Both these breaks are in proximity to the motor company’s power house, and the cause is said to be on account of the immense amount of surplus current in the imediate vicinity. Other cities have been troubled in the same manner. Major Furay has been cor- responding with the authorities in a number of cities, and has received advices in most instances to the effect that the officials had as yet been unable to overcome the difficulty In Cincinnati, however, the engineer discov ered a remedy. The damage was overcome by laying a return wire to the power house, which has no other duty to perform than to take up the surplus current and carry it back to its starting point. This expedient will be tried by the molor company h In fact the men are already at work laying the return wires Several weeks ago Mr. that the electricity was injuring the smaller pipes, but this is the first instance where any of the large pipes appear to have been affected. Nearly every of electrolysis discovered has been within a few blocks of the power house. Inasmuch as the pipes have only just commenced to break it is as yet impossible to estimate the extent of the damage done. The pipes taken out are badly corroded and perforated. The smaller pipes, especially the lead oncs pitted and blotched. The iron pipes corrode and can be whittled with a knife in places wherc the electricity has eaten through. When a piec broken oft it can be crumbled in one's fingers and looks very much like stove polish Mr. Hunt of the water works company has been Investigating the matter and considers the situation serious. There is no way of telling how many feet of pipe are impaired by this phenomenon. An engineer, writing for the Engineering News, says: *Having carefully analyzed the whole matter 1 feel justified in recommend- we must adopt the metallic circuit standard for the best electric railway practice. This can best be obtained by the following method: First, by so bonding the tracks as to render the rail joints of as low stanc: and nearly equal “conductivity to the rails, and to execute this work 50 as to maintain’ this improved condition. Second, the track system must be supplied with in- sulated feeders leading direct from the bus bars in the station to predetermined points of the track system, and thus offering a perfectly low resistance path for this side of the electric circuit, the same is obtained by the trolley line and the over- head system. All of these features and im proved methods have been put in practic The only proper system is one that affords a well insulated and complete metallic circuit of low resistance that will give an ample path for the complete unrestricted circula- tion of the entire current from pole to pole of the dynamo, thus affording no inducement for the current to follow such conductors as gas and water pipe Mr. Hunt of the water works company has put a gang of men to work digging down to the mains at different places to ascertain the extent of the damage. If the larger mains are damaged as much as some of the smaller ones it will prove expensive to the water company. Major Furay has taken up several large pieces of the pipe that bas been ruined and will have them photographed.
