The District Commissioners Row as Good
as a Circus,

The District Commissioners Row as Good
as a Circus.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, April 4.-The row between
the District commissioners has been as good
as a circus to the residents of Washington.
The fight, so far as results are apparent, is a
victory for Judge Edmonds, the newly ap-
pointed Democratic commissioner. The
Judge is a cold-blooded person, of consider
able shrewdness, and General West, against
whom he has been pitted, is a testy gentle
man, of rather domineering disposition,
who is apt to fly into a passion, and when
in that state of mind say and do rash things.
As president of the board the latter assumed
airs that were offensive to the other commits
sioners. They protested against being treat
ed as interiors, and insisted on less might
ness and a more equitable distribution of
honors and duties. The General was stub
born, and when the others proposed to take
away some of his powers he threatened to
resign. That was what the other fellows
wanted, and they aggravated him until he
did resign, and Edmonds was reelected.
West doesn't like his place on the back seat,
and not only says he was reduced in the
ranks to put stop to the police investiga-
ton, but intimates very plainly
that he suspects rottenness in
the engineers department. over which the
civil commissioner, Major Lydecker, pre-
sides, department which directs the ex-
penditure of 81, 100000 year on streets and
other improvements. Hints al an investiga-
ton into the workings of that department
are now heard and as General West is full
of fire, venom and perseverance he may yet
succeed in getting himself disliked by his
colleagues and liked by the public

THE TEWKsBURY ALMsHoUsE.
Some of the Horrors Governor Butler In
tends to Expose.

BosToN, April 4-The Tewksbury aims
house investigation was resumed to-day.
The chairman asked to have the answer as
to whether the bodies had been delivered to
medical schools eliminated, as that would
not be disputed. Governor Butler replied
that he expected to prove that the bodies had
been delivered elsewhere, some to be skinned
and the skins tanned, He proposed to show
that after the bodies had been buried they
had been taken up and sent away, and said
he wo aid go into the graveyard at Tewks-
bury and produce some of the alleged ire
mainl rs This investigation was to go on to
prove! i!XorssN- ,'ony which had been given
to be absolutely false. The books which had
been sent to him as records of the almshouse
were not complete These were copies of
the original books. He wanted the latter,
embracing those recording the deaths and
sale of dead bodies. The chairman said it
was claimed that no dead bodies had been
sold, hence there were no records to be pro-
duced, but the Governor said ne would
prove the contrary.
Mrs. Thomas resumed her testimony, cor
recting the statement that pound of butter
| a week was given the inmates; it should have
been pound a meal. Honora Conners, an
inmate, was kept as ''show woman" for the
benefi. of visitors, who were taken to see her.
Thomas Hall, who worked at Tewksbury
from 1874 to 1877, testified that he had all the
dead to bury while he was there. He took
them from the dead-house under the orders
of Thomas J. Marsh, jr., and Captain Man
ming rsed to come and get the dead bodies,
carrying tIIem away in two zine air igbt
trunks. During the winters he was there,
the bodies taken to Boston averaged sixty
five to seventy-five they were not sent in
hot weather No picking was done while he
was there. Bodies received from the State
prison for burial at the alms-house were.
with one exception, sent away for dissection.
When witness left he was paid 800 for his
winters work and for handling bodies.
He thought Tom Marsh used to collect money
from Harvard College. Witness acknowledged
that he knew be had been doing something
wrong.
The hearing was adjourned to Monday.
