The water supply inquire
MEETING OF THE sUB-sENATE COMMITTEE.
The sub committee Of the Senate District OF
Columbia committee consisting OF Senators
Harris, Rollins and Whyte), which, by direction
of the Senate, Is charged with inquiring into
the deficient water supply in the District, met
at noon to-day. There are already several
plans submitted to the committee. General
Meigs recommends the extension Of the 9-foot
conduit from the distributing reservoir across
Foundry branch by means Of q bridge, thence
by tunnel through Georgetown heights, and
across Rock creek by a bridge. to point north
of the city, there to connect with the city
mains the cost to be 100000. This plan Is
endorsed by the District Commissioners, as q
means to permanently increase the supply; but
they also suggest reservoir at the terminus Of
the conduit extension, and the completion
of the dam at the Great Falls. This
the Commissioners estimate will cost 81 300 900.
Gen. Casey, engineer of the Washington aque-
duct, recommends the laying Of an additional
S6-inch main from the distributing reservoir to
Capitol Hill, ct cost Of s4Oo, 600, which, it is
estimated, Will add One-third to the present
supply and increase its heighth. Mr.. A. Wat
son, Of this city, has plan which contem.
plates the construction Of two night accumu-
fating reservoirs-one on Capitol Hill and one
on the north hills Of the city, at cost of
$15O,OOO The committee Is also In possession
OF the correspondence on the water supply

Commissioners,

Did David Long Die q Natural
neafhl

NEW YORK, Oct. GA special from Lebanon,
Pa, says the community is considerably agi-
tated over the sudden death and burial Of poor
old man by the name of David Long, aged IS
years, who lived alone In little shanty built
for him through the charity Of his neighbors.
The sensation of the affair is this: The old
mans life was insured for about SIC, 900 In diff
ferent companies. The policies are all held by
who, being OF speculative turn, had him In
sured for their benefit and then paid all the
premiums thereon. Long died on the 25th
ultimo after an illness of only few days, and
claims upon being presented by the policy
holders. The body is to be exhumed this week
and an investigation held, to determine
whether or not he died natural dead.

forces from Antofagasta to Tocopilla, gradual
approach to the line Of the Loa, which Chilli In
tends to hold. and also with view of advanc-
ing on the allied army If necessary, is all that
is brought to us by the present mail. On the
part of the allied forces there Is positively no
20 on. Next to the departure OF the Huascar
on another raid, the most important event is
the return Of the Union from her trip south. It
is conjectured that In Montevideo she shipped
several batteries Of field guns, but failed to run
across the Genonese or capture the Gleneleg,
both laden with arms for Chilli. 1t Is now ru-
mored in Lima that two Chilian ships mention
ed were sent to Panama to look after the Oroya,
the last Peruvian transport sent here, and which
sailed few days ago with full cargo OF arms,
&C.. for Peru: In her cargo are topedoes enough
to blow up all the ships of war on the Pacific
coast, while In that respect the Chilians are
amply provided with the whitehead and other
styles Of those Internal devices. Another issue

NEW YORK, Oct. Ga special to the Times
G@ Mew the people Of
question which involves the issue of sectarian-
ism forced by the demands OF the Roman
Catholic priest and his people. There has never
so much excitement and Indignation among our
citizens The difficulty grows out Of conces-
s1ons made by the authorities to the Roman
and the use Of the school monies Religious
teaching, which was to have been excluded, is
almost exclusively practiced so the account
states. and Father Carmody, the priest, now
seeks to extend the same privileges to convent
that has Just been completed. The school COM
mittee without considering the subject granted
level with the schools, and storm of tndigna-
ton has been aroused. An election is about to
take place to fill the places of four members Of
the committee, and there is promise of a very
exciting contest.
