RING RASCALITIES.
How Property Holders Were
F1eeced.
Remarkably Strong Points in Ev1.
dence Against the District Board of
Public Works.
uisville Courier-Journal.

From the Louisville Courier-Journal-
WASHINGTON, d. c., March 25.-The
result of to-day's work by the District In
vestigation Committee was the establishing
of the following points:
1. That the Board of Public Works has,
since the commencement of the present
inquiry, procured contractors to sign con-
tracts and execute bonds for work done
months and years before, on the mere YER
bal order of Shepherd.
2. That over two millions of dollars of
work had been done without any written
contract, which is in plain violation of the
organic act.
3. That under the old corporation, grad
ing was done at the average cost of fifteen
cents per cubic yard. In 1865 and 1869,
when laborers received two dollars per day,
grading cost from ten to eighteen cents per
cubic yard. Now, with labor at one dollar
and fifty cents per day, the board pays fifty
cents per cubic yard for grading.
4. That in numerous instances con-
tractors carried off old material, and prop
erty holders were never allowed for the
same. When they attempted to obtain
drawbacks on their special improvement
bills from the Board of Public Works, they
received no satisfaction.
One witness testified that brick pavement
was taken up in front of his house and
caTted off by contractor and used 10 build
a stable. This witness swOre positively
that he followed the carts and saw the
brick dumped at the contractors stable,
then in course of erection, and saw them
worked up into the same He applied for
a drawback in his bill for improvements,
but could not get any one of the officers to
even listen to him. He had written letter
after letter, and no attention was paid to
his complaint.
Another witness, Mr.. Miller, one of the
largest coal dealers in the city, showed how
he and other property holders on c street
north, between Fourteenth and Fifteenth
streets northwest, had been assessed foul
times more than the improvement cost.
Contractor z. Jones testified that he paid
a prominent ring lawyer $4,000 to Obtain
a contract from the Board of Public Works

ATTEMPTED MURDER
On the streets of Kingston, East Ten.
uessee.
From the Kingston News, March "a.

From the Kingston News, March "a.
Considerable excitement was occasioned
on the streets on Thursday morning last,
about 10 O'Clock, by a cowardly assault up
on boy by the name of Columbus Renfro
by March FORESTER, well known charae-
ter of this place. During the preceding
night FORESTER, while under the influence
of whisky, had created quite disturbance
by an attack upon the house of Mrs. Rem
fro, the boys mother, compelling her to
leave home in the height of furious storm,
and, with her children, seek protection at
the house of a neighbOr. The next morn
ing, still under tine influence of liquor, For
rister, having previously borrowed a shot
gun ''to go squirrel hunting" was noticed
standing around at various places in town,
evidently waiting for something to turn
up About 10 o'clock, while Renfro was
standing in Mr.. Denning's drug store, For
rister came up the street, with the shot gun
in his hand, and, calling the boy out, after
a few angry words, commenced the assault,
beating him over the head and arms with
the gun with such force as to break the
barrel from the stock. From those who
| were witnesses of the affair, We learn that
as he struck Renfro the first time the latter
staggered and fell to his knees, but soon
recovering himself, he was about to rise
when FORESTER struck him again, probably
in the head, causing him to fall fiat.
Whether he struck him the third time or
not seems to be matter OF doubt, though
it is asserted positively that even after the
boy was down FORSTER struck at him
again.
At an early hour in the afternoon, For
rister was brought before Esquire Wester,
who, after hearing the facts in the case,
bound him over for trial at the next term
of our Circuit Court, fixing his bail at
$1,000. Being unable to give bond in this
sum, he was committed 10 Jail for safe
keeping, where he now lies. ......
As the affair occurred in one of the most
central points of town, it was witnessed by
quite number of spectators, and, among
| others, as we are informed, by an aspiring
Deputy Sheriff; still, no attempt was made
at the time to arrest the would-be murder
er, and it was not until an hour afterwards
that he was taken into custody blythe Town
| Marshal.

ANOTHER RAILROAD sOB.~

WASHINGTON, March 24.-The House
Railways and Canals Committee heard ar
guments to-day in favor of the bill granting
Government aid to a projected narrow
gauge railroad to connect the Central Pa
cIfic Railroad with Columbia river, via
Portland, Oregon. The road is TO be seven
hundred miles long, and two hundred miles
of it will be built by the State Of Oregon,
and TO aid in the construction of the re-
manning five hundred miles the Govern
ment is asked TO guarantee the railroad
company's five per cent bonds at the rate Of
Sl00,OOO per mile. 1t is asserted that So
DOC, 900 have been subscribed to build the
road, and that ten per cent of that amount
can be at once realized, if this bill passes,
and the construction of the road immedi-
ately commenced. The committee are in
clined to regard the proposition favorably.

THE famine in Bengal presents a
grave problem for the English govern
ment to deal with. In one district
alone. which embraces onl y one-thlrd
of the famine-stricken province, l,l70,-
600 we're reported to be starving on the
LIST of March. To save these people
would require $780, tons of rice, cost
ing Ct, $4,000. The Spectator esti-
mates that food for the whole province
would cost 95,OO0,000, and the extra
public works f5,OO0,000 more, or S5O,-
100000. The large towns of England
refuse to do anything, upon the ground
that it is the duty of the government to
provide relief. The government, there
fore, finds itself in a dilemma. 1t can
not leave the poor wretches to starye,
as that would be inhuman; if it spends
this large amount of money, 1t must IN
crease taxation and be accused OF ex-
travagance. This is not an enviable
position for a new government. Mean
while, between the question OF human
ity on the one hand and expense on the
other, the people of Bengal are starV-
ing by thousands.
