GOVERNOR ODELL'S TRIUMPH Republicans ¢ Attempt No ¥ ntion Yet. | fer and Mee NEW YORK, March 24.—Leading repub- lican politicians of this clty and state met in Senator Platt’s rooms at the Fifth Avenue hotel this afternoon and were in conference for several hours. As a result of the conference it was decided to at- tempt no police legislation this sossion. The conference adjourned subject to the call of Senator Platt, whenever, in his judgment, police legislation seems neces- | sary. Al those who were talked with say the conference was harmonfous. Long before the time for the conferen the corridors of the Fifth Avenue hotel were filled with state leaders and mem- bers of tke legislature. Every one of the leaders summoned to the conference at- tended. There was a large sprinkling of local politiclans and many of the upstate politiclans who were attracted to the place of vonference, but were not summoned as participants. Though no one would say it directly, all who attended the conference admitted that it had come to the views of Governor Odell and it was considered that be had virtually triumphed and that the organization was with him. This evenlng Senator Platt gave out the following statement: “The general opin- fon of those at the conference was that the police conditions existing in New York ought to have the attention of the legisla- ture, but it would be useless to pass any bill, as the governor has declared that he would veto it. Some of those present fa- vored a state police law and others fa- vored a metropolitan district, but it was decided by all that nothing would be done at present “I regret the situation, as 1 believe that some action by the legislature fs important for the clty and the republican party and I think that such will be the general pub- lic opinion ‘soon, But if nothing is to be done soon and If the present bad condi- tions are to be submitted to, the legisla- ture is mot responsible for that. “If it turns out in the next municipal election that the justment 1 have formed has been wrong then I shall be glad that Tammeny has been loft in control of ths police.” Justice Jerome of the court of special sessions visited five police stations today and admitted to bail thirty-three prisoners who were captured_late last night in sev- | eral raids made by the committee of fifteen The proprietor and night clerk of the Hotel Virginia, Henry McGuerk, alleged manager of the Brighton Muslc hall, other- wise known as “McGuerk's Suicide Hall," | with a singer and housekeeper of the same place and a colored woman captured in the “Berlin," were each held in $500 bail. The other prioners, who included managers, bafkeepers and other persons said to be connected with the “Savoy,” “Royal Gar- den” and the “Pekin,” were each held in $200 ball. LANDLORDS ANSWER FOR VICE New York's Committee of Fifteen Would Cleanse Tenements Mo by Prosecuting the Owne NEW YORK, March 24.—The committee of fitteen today sent a letter to Governor Odell warmly endorsing the recommenda- tions of the tenement house committee in regard to the driving out of vice from the tenement house. The committee has de voted considerable time to this question, which was one of the things which called it lnto the field, and it is expected the full committee will go to Albany on Tuesday, when a hearing on the report of the tene- ment house committee will be heard before the citles’ committee of the legislature, The tter reads in part as {ollows “The greatest of existing evils is the in- trusion and wide extension of prostitution in the temement house districts, the dis- trict ip which the great mass of wage- carners are compelled to live. There wijl probably, for a long time to come, continue to be differences of opinion as to how it is possible to check the vice in our cities, but | there can be no conflicting opinions as to the necessity of protecting children of ten- der years from close contact with depravity An intimate acquatutance with adult ivee should at least not be forced upon youug children by permitting such vice to pene- trate Into the very houses in which they live, The cry of parents, who ask merely | for the opportunity of bringing up their ehildren in an'atmosphere free from the pollution of the most degrading forms of moral evils, should surely be heeded.” The letter says that the law on the stat- ute has mot met the situation and what is needed {s a law that will place the respon- sibility for the existence of vice in the tedements on the shoulders of the land- lords. This, the committee says, the leg- tslution proposed by the tenement house committee will do, HYMENEAL. Ga nd-Zuhr, WEST POINT, Neb., March 24.—(Spe- clal)—The marriage of Miss Anna Zuhr and G. A.

March 24.—(Spectal.)—The meoting of the State Referendum league called to review the work of the legis- lature has adjourned. There was but a limited number present, but sufficient to do the business in hand. Numbers of bills were considered for reference, but only four were put upon the list, and three was decided to refer the law providing for the election of count commissioners at large, which law, it is claimed, gives the larger towns advantage over the country and instead of giving a majority of the board members to the coun- try districts, allows the towns to control the boards. ’ The law providing for constitutional officers by uother proposition the league desires passed upon by the people. Also the law | limiting the terms of members of the Board of Charitles and Corrections. These meas- ures are regarded by the fusionists as di- rectly contrary to the best interests of the institutions over which the board has control. Another bill to be referred is that of the selection of official papers by county commissioners. Under the provisions of this bill fusion publishers stand slim chance of getting more than a small crumb of the county patronage. Three bills were ra‘erred to a committec for consideration and, if by them deemed ad- visable, they wlll also be referred for ap- proval or rejection. ‘They are what s termed the “salary grab” law, the ‘“sca enger bill, which provides for the re- publication of tax lists wherein certain ab- breviations.were used in descriptions, and the law creating the office of dairy com missioner, The latter is not as serlously objected to as its companions, although same of its restrictions are regarded as entirely unjust, and the whole proposition unnecessary.

Mr. Woods had charge of the construc- tion of Sberman tunnel and talked inter- estingly friend of the great project | that has just been completed. Contrary to | expectasions, he says, the contrgetors did | not make much money out of the tunnel work, as unlooked-for expenses were in- curred in the work. When the bore was started a pipe was lald between the tunnel and Dale ¢ and a pumping plant established on the stream to furnish water for the men and holsting cogines. locomotives and eleetric light plant. The work of driving the tun- | nel had progressed but u few yards when | water was unexpectedly encountered in| the decomposed granite and at a depth of | less than thirty feet. This water flowed from both ends of the tunnel at the rate of one-fourth of a cuble foot per second and when cold weather came it required a small army of men to shovel out ice as the water froze and keep the ends of the tunnel open. In addition to this ex- pense the workmen were unable to use black powder, owing to the dampness, and dynamite was used instead. Black powder Iifts the rock arth in large blocks, whereas dynamite nelined to scatter the rock in 1 pleces. The extra work necessitated in handling the emall pleces of rock cut the profit of the contractors, Engineers and contractors are unable to explain the strange phenomencn of finding such a fow of water on the top of the mountain at an elevation of over £,000 feet and at a place where never lies for any lergth of time, being blown away by the strong wind Bugineer Woods looks for great actlyity on the line of the Central Pacific the com- ing summer. 3 0 line eok and s snow Accensi 1o King L i BRUSSELS, March ~The extraordinary embassy sent to announce the accession of King Edward to the Dritish throne was received by King Leopold.
