THE REASONS WHY.
Report OF tho District Committee Adverse
TO tho Establishment OF Opposition Ga

Report OF tho District Committee Adverse
TO tho Establishment OF Opposition Gas
Works.
Following is the full text of tho report Of
the house committee for the District of
Columbia, to which were referred house bills
relating to tho organization of gaslight COM
panies in this city:
That house bills Nos 924, 1868, and 1705
are bills to incorporate companies. and house
bill No 1897 is general law upon the subject.
Tho committee arc of tho opinion that in
the furnishing of illuminating gas in the city
Of Washington, tho United States, tho Dis
trict of Columbia, and the people Of said
district have common interests to wit, good
and cheap illuminating gas. The price of
such gas depends upon the cost of construc-
tion and maintenance Of gas works and the
appurtenances, and the amount of gas con-
sumod. The gas works would double tho
cost without any increase Of consumption of
gas. The construction of new gas works
would necessitate the tearing up Of sidewalks
and the streets at tho crossings.
law authorizing other parties construct
gas works Is liable to abuse and do great
public injury, in this, in forcing the present
company to buy them off, and thereby neces-
| sarily increasing its capital stock or labili-
ties, and thereby increasing the price which
the said company would be reasonably justi-
tiable in charging for gas.
For tho above reason, the committee arc
OF the opinion that authority should not be
given to any other person, company, or cor
poration to erect and maintain gas works in
the city of Washington, unless there exists
an imperative necessity therefor
| That there is no necessity therefor Is appa-
rent, because tho United States by law has
the right land has asserted such right, and
which right tho Washington Gaslight COM
pany recognizes, not only to fix the quality
OF tho gas furnished by said company, but
also its price, and to make such regulations
for the government of said company as may
be necessary to protect tho United States, the
District Of Columbia, and the people thereof.
There is now an act of congress regulating
the Washington gaslight company, not only
as to the quality of the gas furnished, but the
price to bo paid therefor, and for inspections,
&c. The provisions thereof are as guarded
and stringent as can bo found in the law OF
any state.
There is bill now pending in this house ia
reduce the price to be paid said company for
gas furnished
| For the aforesaid reasons the committee
recommend that neither one of tho aforesaid
bills do pass.

Opinions OF MIR. Newcomb Upon the
Management OF tho Joannette Expedi-
ton.
expedition was resumed yesterday, and Mr..
Arnoux, counsel for Mrs. De Long, continued
his cross-examination Of Mr.. Newcomb, who
was asked to specify instances in which
Capt. De Long had fomented strife between
the officers and men, and in reply
referred to his trouble with Capt.
Do Long about erasing thes words Sin
charge" after tho witnesses title, naturalist"
to his trouble with Dunbar and to his arrest
on the ice, although in part Of the Dunbar
case he thought De Long rather prevented
than increased strife. Mr. Arnoux then read
| an extract from Capt De Longs private
journal setting forth the details Of contro.
versy between Mr.. Newcomb and Lieut.
Danenhower, and stating that he de Long,
| intended to put Newcomb under arrest and
bring him to trial by court-martial for
conduct tending to produce insubordination
among the men and for insolence to Lieut..
| Danenhower.
Witness said tho facts as recited by Capt.
De Long were true. He did not think DR..
| Amblers objection to the odor Of his wit
nesss) dead birds and request to have them
removed was duo to any ill-feeling toward
him, nor were the objection and request made
| In an offensive way. Inc treabment OF D1r.
Collins by some of the officers of the ship
was marked by sort of quiet contempt;
could not say that 1t was due to ill-will
The witness thought that the retreat to
the Lena delta was a heroic achievement.
! The escape Of the whalc-boat party was
largely due to the skill and oSertions of
Lieut.. Danenhower. Many things should
have been carried out which were not among
them sextants and compasses.
| The witness could not remember that he
had ever told DR.. Collins that he and Jerome
| Collins had "a hell of life in the Arctics." +"
Witness denied ever doing anything deserv-
| ing punishment while on the expedition. He
had never heard Dc Long swear, and never
said he was profaue Catholic.
Concerning the treatment of Collins during
| the retreat tho witness said he did not know
| that Collins was deprived of his liberty. Col
lins sometimes went hunting seal with rifle.
| Witness could not remember telling any one
that the men were 80 disoontented during tho
retreat on accounl of mismanagement that
Do Long had to read tho articles of war to
them. Witness thought there was some .jeal-
ousy and hard feeling between Danenhower
and Melville.
The witness was examined ct great length,
but nothing of importance was learned from
him. As he left the stand he said, in answer
to question of Mr.. Boutelle, II would rather
go through q dozen retreats than have to
stand this sort of business" The investiga'
tion will be resumed to-day.
