CITY IMPROVEMENTS.

New Buildings in the Center
 Change In Grand Avenue-Other
 New Places.
 Ground will be broken to-day for the new building to be erected in Orange street by MT. H. B. Armstrong, the carpet dealer, and to be occupied by him in his business. The old wooden building on the north side of the alleyway will be pulled down today. John Coyne, of Halloak street. will tear it down and excavate the cellar for the new building and expects to have a lively call for kindling wood, doors and window sashes from customers alive to bargain. The work on the new building will be pushed forward rapidly. The new struc- ture will be further i'm provement of Or ange street in this section.
 Ground was broken in Grand street this week for a three story brick building to be erected by Major W. D. Hendrick and wife, formerly of Branford, the latter daughter of the late Eleazar Ransom, who resided in the street, and died a year or two ago. The nursery, formerly the Lundberg nursery, stands next east of where the new structure will stand. It will have stores on the lower floor and tenements above. This nursery lot is about the only unimproved real estate on
  vener, still far from venerable or decrepit, can we'll remember when Grand street, or Grand avenue, the name it has late ly been digpifed with by the city, was almost destitute of houses stores. This was no longer back than forty years ago. There was one store, Blanchards, on the corner where P. McKennas block now stands. One old landmark of those days is still standing, the little old cottage near the head of Jefferson street, where the late Mr Phile resided for many years. But a very few other houses on the street were standing forty years ago. Among them is an old wooden dwell ing near the entrance to Manville & Dudley's carriage manufactory. Thompson's store, corner of Grand and East, is still remaining and Reilly store on the next corner above, and probably there are one or two others of the old-time buildings. The old lot back of McKenna's block now built upon was famed twenty years ago as the circus lot.
 MT. H. W. Mansfield, formerly for years 8 natter on Chapel street, has erected very tasteful large cottage on Mansfield street in the thickly settled part of the street. It is commodious and of unique design, yet very harmonious in the general effect and attrac- tive.

WAsH1NeToN, May 19.-For some reason there is great delay in filling the places in the Interior department that have become vacant through res1gnations and other causes The commissioner of education, General Eaton, resigned some months ago, but his successor has not yet been appointed. General Eaton is now dischsrging his duties is president of college in Ohio and still drawing his salary as comm issioner of educa- tion. Colonel Oberly, who was appointed to succeed Dorman B. Eaton on the civil ser vice board, held the position of superi ntend- ent of Indian schools and his place has not been filled, although the vacancy has existed for some time. There are also three vacan- cies in the corps of principal examiners in the patent office still thrilled. All these of fees pay large salaries and the applicants for them are almost without number and yet no appointments are made

The Testimony Against Brooks.

ST. LOUIS, May 19.-Brooks this morning will neither affirm nor deny the authenticity of the confession published yesterday. The first witness this morning was L. E. Hunt, room clerk of the Southern Hotel, who testi- fled to the circumstances connected with the stay at the hotel by Preller and Brooks. He had never been introduced, but knew him as Preller, just as he knew ali the guests. Af terward he saw the body in the morgue, but could not identify it as that of Preller. He could see no resemblance to Preller; in fact it did not look like human being.
 Thomas Mauion and John Lyons, porters at the Southern, testified Go handling Prel- ler's baggage and to Maxwell saying the mys- terious heavy trunk containing the body had some good stuff in it. Manion was certain the corpse found in Maxwelrs room was that of Preller. This point will be the main ob stacle that the State expects to meet, few witnesses caring to swear positively to the identity of the mass of pu5rid flesh found in the heavily corded trunk. The testimony on this point was unsatisfactory
