Special to the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, Jan. ls.-Many OF the
delegates to the Mississippi river improve
ment convention, which met to-day, were
at the capitol in the forenoon. They
talked freely OF their hopes and projects,
and OF the large appropriations for river
Improvement which they expect to get
from congress, The tenor OF their talk
Indicated that there is not entire harmony
of thought among them. The delegates
from the upper Mississippi and the Mis-
souri, complain that the bulk Of the appro-
priatlor has heretofore been given to the
lower Mississippi, and say they do not
intend TO submit to this any longer. Some
OF them declare that they intend to de-
mand equal shares with the lower river,
and that If this is refused they will fight
against any appropriations for the inter
ior department.
LAMAR's TELEPHONE TACTICS.
Officials who were members OF the
board which considered the telephone

in recommending suit In the name of the
United States is not that the name of the
United States shall be loaned to any rival
company or industry, but the United
States In its own name, on its own be-
half, through It's own agents and its own
expenses, shall bring suit and conduct it

a DETERMINED effort was reported
being made TO wipe out the lottery evil
in Louisville, Ky. 1t is contended that
a recent decision of the Appellate Court
in the gas matter incidentally declared
the laws which permit lottery unconsti-
tutional. In view of this fact petit
ton has been prepared, addressed to
the Legislature of Kentucky, praying
that body to abrogate the lottery laws
of the State and thereby stamp out the
evil. A number of leading, influential,
public-spirited citizens are the prime
movers in this matter, and it is not at
al unlikely that the days of lottery in
Kentucky are numbered.

TIE Growth of the telenbr

THE growth of the telephone is one
of the most remarkable in the history
of inventions. In August. 1877, the
number of instruments in use in this
country was only $50, while in Feb
ruary, 1880, there were Co. 500. 249. 700
in 1888, 307, 010 in 1854. and in Feb
ruary, 1885, 325,574. There are about
$4,000 in Canada and $4,000 in Great
Britain. The number of exchanges
has grown from 100 in 1880 TO 7S2 in
1885. In January last there were 237,-
223 miles of telephone wire in this
country. There are 1876 persons fur
nished employment by the exchanges.
More patents have been issued ON the
telephone than any other single line of
invention IN this country. The total
number for ten years is 1,521.
