The soldiers, Monument.

Every citizen interested in the growth and
adornment of our city, will welcome the action
OF the Soldiers and Sailors Monument Asso-
citation. No city Of the sizeof ours in New
England, has done so little towards beautify-
ing its public grounds as Portland. The move
ment to get statue for Longfellow, is one
step In the right direction and when the can
wasting committees have been met with the
response to their calls, that we need soldiers
monument, the reioinder has been, that q
soldiers monument was q certain thing-an
association for that end being in existance,
which would act in good time, and. If the
Longfellow Statue Association was success,
we should surely have a soldiers monument at
an early day Giving begets giving, and there
is not probably citizen who subscribes to the
Longfellow statue, who will not give as liberal
ly to the soldiers monument. Both are
needed, and if every public place In Portland
eventually has some work of art to adorn il,
50 much the better. One thing should be
avoided; namely, soliciting subscriptions fre "a
our citizens for both objects at the same time.
The Longfellow Statue Association will, in a
few weeks, be through with its work, and
then subscriptions can be started for the
soldiers monument without interference.
Should both committees be in the field at the
same time soliciting, it will be an injury to
both, and we cannot afford TO have either er-
terprise fail j. P. B.

Accidents.


Frederick S. Green, while at work at Cur
tbs & Soule's ice house on Gross street, was hit
by an ice pick in the leg, Friday, and received
severe cut.
The eldest son of Stephen Plummer was
playing in the barn at East Raymond when he
fell from the great beams and broke his arm.
Mrs. Griffith, an aged lady of Gorham, had
fall day or two since, breaking one of her
hips and otherwise injuring herself.
Saturday, Alvin Moulton, son of w. s.
Moulton, 5705 Congress street, tried to stop
Mr.. George Hudson's horse. Moulton caught
hold of the bride, when the horse broke away
ard struck at him with both feet, hitting him
on the right arm, breaking it just above the ell
bow and fracturing the bones above.
Mr.. John FAIRY, who lives on Larc street,
was unloading some wood, Saturday, at York's
saw mill on Commercial street, when his
horse was frightened by a locomotive
and started forward. Mr.. FAIRY was pitched
out of the cart and struck heavily on the ice
upon the back of his head. He was taken to

Fire Hydrants for Commercial Street.

Fire Hydrants for Commercial Street.
To the Editor of the Press:
OF late considerable interest has been mani
tested by the city government and our citizens
in the matter of affording better protection to
our wharves and property on the water front
from large fires. A committee of the city
council have before them the able report of an
eminent engineer, which, If adopted, will
cover the whole ground and is complete in it.
self. The plan is to divide the city into dis-
tricts of high and low service, the 20-inch
main to supply the high and the 4-inch main
the low service; the capacity of the two being
100000 gallons per day lin addition to which
the reservoir supply will pc available for use
at fires in the low service district). The low
service supply will now be considered: there
will be 20-inch pipe laid from 24-inch pipe
at Congress, through st. John street to Dam
FORTH thence will be extended a 16-inch pipe
through Commercial and entirely around the
city, back to Congress street and connected
with that pipe.
Through this pipe the water will flow direct
from Sebago Lake and the available pressure
per square inch for fire duty from MIGRANTS
oohAOOtou "Ath ~ WILL uo oV pOuuucB WHICH 10
ample for putting out fires without the aid Of
steam fire engines. From this pipe 20 hose
streams of 200 gallons each per minute can be
used without reducing the pressure below 50
pounds. The entire wharf property and ship
ping can receive full protection by simply lay
ing down on each of the following wharves
(Which are filed solid the greater lengthy an
8-inch pipe, and the setting of hydrants on
each capable Of furnishing at least six hose
streams, viz: Commencing at Eastern or Rail-
road wharf and going east, we have Deakes',
distant $50 feet, next Holyoke's, $50 feet, next
Boston and Maine, 600 feet, Browns, 450 feet,
Union, 800 feet, Central, 375 feet, which has
4-inch pipe. Six hundred feet east Is Port
land Pier, 300 feet farther Custom House
wharf, and 800 feet takes us to Franklin
wharf.
The greatest distance between wharf hy-
drants will be 400 feet, so that comparatively
short lines of hose will be required to protect
the intervening property. When it is consid
cred that simply attaching hose and let
ting the water into the hydrant ia all that is
required to be done to handle the largest fire,
the value OF this supply may be estimated.
At present Commercial street ia supplied with
water for all purposes through a 6-inch pipe,
the supply coming over Congress street hill.
This plan brings the water around under the
hill. and the pipe being large delivers the wa
ter where required without loss of head, and
in any desired quantity.
The cost of this work is estimated at not less
than $150000 which does not include piping
the wharves (Which will cost, with MIGRANTS,
gates, &C., about $4,000 additionally, The
committee have asked the water company to
consider on what terms they will lay down
this pipe, and the company Is expected to
make its reply at an early day. So

from the Gland Trunk depot, and to save time
he thought he would jump on board and ride
across. AS he attempted to step upon the plat

Matthew f. Whittier, brother of John G.

seventy. He had long been out of health and
some three months ago the disease assumed a
more serious form, necessitating his resigna-

The January term of this Court will begin tomor-
row morning There will be two juries In attend
ance and assignments will be made immediately af-
ter the call of the docket on the first day.
State " The City of Portland. At the September
torn, 1881, an indictment was found against the
city for nuisance in allowing deposits from Union
Wharf sewer to accumulate in the dock.
The counsel for the city demurred to the indict-
ment on the ground that municipal corporation
could not be indicted for nuisance of that nature.
It is comparatively new question. The following
rescrpt has been received from the law court over
ruling the exceptions and demurrer and holding the
indictment good:
Rescript by Barrows, IA municipal corporation
Is iaole to Indictment il they so construct their
public sewers that the outfals thereof create pub
lie nuisance, noisome and prejudicial to the public
health, provided the aecumulations of filth thence
proceeding are not promptly removed. 1t is not
necessary in such indi tment to allege negligence
In the adoption of the plan of their sewage system
or careless execution of the same 1t is not suffi
Gent legal answer in such that they exercised
care in adopting their sewage system AID construct
ing their sewers. They are bound to remove any
accumulation OF filth which they thus create when
ever they are likely to be prejudicial to public
healtn or any other public right and if such depos
its are not removed by the reflux OF the tide, the
corporation which has caused the accumulation
must remove it, by dredging some other etfectual
mode.
Exceptions and demurrer overruled.

Saturday morning cutting ARRAY took place
at Brownrigg's clearinghouse on Fore street.
J. W. Huston, who halls from Indiana, says
he went into the house and was talking with
another man named John Mcdonald, when
they got into dispute AND Mcdonald stabbed
him with penknife, inficting a cash in the
abdomen. Mcdonald admits the dispute but
says Huston was intoxicated and attempted to
strike him when, by accident, Huston was cut.
Officers Rice and Sterling arrested Mcdonald
DR.. Cammett had Huston removed to the City
Hospital.
DR.. Cammett said last night that Huston
was out of danger.
