bers were elected, among whom Albion w.
Tourgee, Professor Myron G. Peck, Ed
son Keith. General Charles J. Langdon, John w.
Masury, Johnston Livingston and Gouverneur
Kortright. George b. Butler, chairman of
the Committee of Political Reform appointed
to consider the subject of the city's water supply
and distribution, made report showing the danger
of the proposed dam at Quaker Bridge and renew
ing the petition to appoint commissioners to decide
upon plans and construct works The engineering
features and difficulties of the site and the cost
carefully considered. The report was accompanied
by the following resolution:
Resolred That the extraordinary scheme of the Com
missioner OF Public Works of dam at Quaker Bridge
the CroOn River and the aqueduct proceeding from 1t
the city, the dam TO be OF the height OF S0 feet above
bed rock, and possibly higher In some portion, and con-
stituting height Of dam unparalleled and highly dam
gerons 1t vastly important 10 the interests Of the
distribution shall be as heretofore recommended com
mitted by the Legislature to five commissioners TO be
appointed by the Governor by and with the advice and
consent Of the Senate, and that such commissioners

the necessary works.

as much stone as it would to fill i'll the Brooklyn
Bridge with stone from bnOre 10 SnOTe, OF as mucn
stone as there is in the Egyptian pyramids. The
report was accepted and the resolution was adopted
Mr. Hinsdale offered preamble and resolution in
reference TO the veto of the Chinese bill,
prefacing them with the remark that the
Bill was vicious, dishonorable in bad
faith. and vulgar, in tic extreme,
The preamble declared that the opinion of the club
was that the bill is in violation of the letter and
spirit of existing treaties between the United
States and China; that it is the highest duty of
Government to keep. inviolate its treaty obliga-
tons that the adoption of the policy embraced in
the bill would tend to sever the good feeling at
present existing between the two countries and
that it would tend to embarTass resident American
merchants in China The resolution was as fol-
lows:
Pesored That this club approves OF the veto message
OF the President and comnends his frmness In inter
posing his objections TO the BILL and his craftsmanship in
Placing this important matter before the country In
such light that the people may be able 10 study the
subject IN all its delicate aud IMPLICATED bearings
The resolution was seconded by ex-Judge Pea
body and was unanimously adopted. 1t was
dered that copy be sent TO the President and to
each of the Senators and members of the House of
Representatives from this State.
