Alderman Everett spoke In favor of the
passage of the ordinance. Ho nald the com
pany had taken advantage of eve > * y legal
technicality to got out of Its obligations to
the city , especially in in the matter of paying
for tho' paving between the trucks , which It
Is compelled to pay by the terms of its con
tract. It had proved itself anyrtilng but a rit
recipient for past or future favors.
Wind wns afraid the council was getting
itself Into tioublo by considering such an or
dinance ; supposing some day the city should
want tlio company to put down some tracks
somovvhurcl Then this ordlnmica would
stnro thorn In the face. But it didn't take
him two minutes to come in out of tlio wet ,
nnd the ordinance was passed without a dis
senting vote.

A stout opposition was looked for from the
saloonkeepers whoa It caino to collecting tbo
monthly lines for February. Ono reason for
this was thnt when the fM per month line
was adopted tlio saloonlsts , or least many of
thorn , thought that they could not make any
thing nt that rule , but they decided to try'it
a month and sco how It turned out.Vhcn \
the month began to near Its end the SOUK' and
dance bc an again. The saloonkeepers de
clared by all that was good and bud that
they ' would not pav 10 , nnd that they would
run their places in"jplto of everything , In
caao nny trouble was tnndo they would
bring ttio city authorities Into the state courts
nnd light the line ordinance on the ground
that It was opposed to the stnto law. All of
which sounds very ferocious Indeed ,
Yesterday was the last day , according to
the ordinance , on which the lines wcro to be
paid , and the result showed that n largo part
nt least of the saloonkeepers' threats wcro
inadouf wind , At 5 o'clock forty-eight had
deposited their ? 50 npleco with the city
clerk. There are laid to basevcnty-tlirco
running nt present , so that twenty-live of the
number have not yet been heard from. Although -
though > cstordny was the last day , it has
been the practice to give thorn n day or two
of grace , nnd the marshal will not be or
dered out to look after the delinquents for n
day or two. U Is not thought thcro will be
any trouble over the collection of the rest of
the llnoj.

ono of the most popular plays of her roper-

In a manner that left nothing to bo criticised ,
nnd added many to tha long list of admirers.
Miss Mitchell's ' methods nro peculiarly ner
own. She enters Into the spirit of her part
with her whole heart and soul , and her audi
tors can always feel sure of witnessing a
thoroughly conscientious and paln taklne
performance. She Is supported this season ,
as In the past , by a thoroughly competent
company , nnd every attention is paid to the
.stage settings nnd details of her presenta
tions. Mr. Howard Gould as Kclnhnrt , the
artist , pave a iiiunly. artistic portrayal of the
role. Mr. 11. F. McClnnnin mayed the Lin-
denhost as ho does all things , well. Mr.
George W. Deyo was handsome and dignl-
lied ns the piinco. Shcridnn Tuppcr as Baron
Aithur made much of a small part ,
which in less cap.ihlo hands would
hardly receive attention. Mr. Bdward Poland
was hardly up to tlio requirements of
Christoph. Miss Jennie Carroll ns Bai' ol ,
and Ida Burroughs as the countess wore both
very satisfactory. Taken as a whole , the
play gnvooiitlro satisfaction , ana furnished a
very pleasant evening's entertainment. Tills

A Pennsylvania Deficiency.
llAitiusnui'o , Pa. , Feb. 10. A local paper
published today n story that there Is likely to
bo found a deficiency of $30,000 in the adjut
ant general's ofUco and the governor will in
vestigate. Adjutant General McClelland
said tonight : "This office Is in no manner
responsible for such reports. As to tbo un
paid bills the amount of them cannot .vet be
determined. There Is nothing that In anv
way reflects upon General Hastings , ox-ad *
] utnnt general. "
Ex-Adjutant General Hastings will tomor
row print a'lengthy statement regarding his
management , of tlio affairs of the ofllco dur
ing his Incumbency. Ho emphatically de
nies that there Is any shortage and says that
on the contrary ho loaves a balance'for his
successor.
Tonisht It Is stated by a member of the
legislature that the story Is probably based on
the fact that there will bo necessity for n de
ficiency bill to meet the requirements of the
mllltln. Extensive Improvements in the
equipment of the national guard lust year ,
several division encampments , etc. , caused a
largo Increase iu expenses , which was mot
by paying the bills out of the coming year's
appropriation. This practice will probably
be stopped.

appeal is taken to the higher court. If tlio
rate is now enforced nnd the decision is re
versed by the supreme . .court of the JLTnltoil
State ? , the company will have cause of action
for damage agtmst the stafo. If , on ttio other
hand , the decision Is tifllrmed In after years
the Intention of the law will have been nl-
reailv defeated. In an Interview with n
prominent lawjer ho said that the remedy
of the company , however , was in a United
States court , where a petition could bo Hied
fora stay of proceedings , pending the ap
peal. Unless such action Is taken the joint
rate law Is now iu force in tho'state nnd the
railroad companies are subject to penalties
lor not adopting the rates.

BAI.TIMOIIB , Md. , Feb. 10. The Sun will
omorrow publish n dispatch from Waslilng-
on , referring to the report that the conclu-
lon of Governor Hill of Now York to como
.o the senate was because of a letter written
by Henry Wattorson last November.
The letter is printed in full. In it Mr.
Wattorson says thnt outside , of the
Into of Now York tlreio Is n
, vcll nigh unanimous demand among
democrats for the nomination of Cleveland
.00 strong for party lenders nnd managers to
resist. H Hill should como to the national
convention with the New York delegation
solid against Cleveland ho would bo over
whelmed , "You uro powerless to prevent , "
adds Waters-oil , "but jou can defeat the
election of the ticket. There arn democrats In
every part of the union who bchovo you
did this in 188S , I know It to bo tnlw , but it
will cling to you as long as you live nnd will
meet you In every national convention If it
bo not dissipated bv some acton your pirt
grc.it enough to blot it out. In default of
this If you hmo any hope of the presidency It
will defeat that. If you could reconcile
It with jour Judgment to mnko pence
with Cleveland and take a delegation to the
national convention In IbtU to put him in
nomination you will save the party and place
yourself upon nn elevation you can never
attnin if YOU full to do it. You would bo re
ceived by the country with enthusi
asm and I don't see how you
could bo kept out of the succession.
On the other hand , even If you succeeded in
defeating the nomination of Cleveland , you
will stand upon sinister and dangerous
ground , with a stormy future before you. "

mltteo today. The report tolls of a gen
eral suspension ot sentences pro
nounced , principally in tbo dis
rlcts of West Virginia and northern
Georgia and in the Northern , Mddlo nnd
Southern districts of Alabama , thus eiicour-
aclng ttio methods of foe-making practices
by United States district attorneys , mar
shals , etc. The evidence shows , says the re
port , that In some parts of the country met
are Induced bv deputy marshals and United

against each other for violation of the Inter
nal revenue and timber laws , are arrostei
by deputy marshals and brought before

from $2,000 to $3,000 , Commissioner

talnlng fees by practices such as theso. Ho-
port says that most of these prosecutions nro
frivolous , nnd if prosecuted In the courts
would bo frowned on. The ronort views in
detail the Illegal practices existing elsewhere
than in Boston , nnd recommends the substi
tution of salaries for foes as the only moans
of putting an end to corruptions o
the fco system. Tbo practice prevailing -
vailing in Boston of allowing court clerks
nnd deputies Iu naturalize foreigners , charg
ingn fee ranging fromfl to M for each fito
of the process , is condemned In strong terms
The sub-committee recommends legislation
for other phases of the evil aud also the dis
missal of J. T. Green , United States cir
