ALL WORK STOPPED.
How the AQueduct Tunnel win be Pre-
served.

Under the provisions Of the urgent deficiency
act OF March so, last, making an appropriation
OF 1856, 900 for the completion of the tunnel
extension Of the Washington squeduct, no
work on the tunnel could be done after II
O'Clock last night, although the appropriation
is far from being expended.
1t was necessary, therefore, that some immedi-
ate steps be taken to prevent the tunnel from
filling with water, which would materially dam
age the work already done. An order was
therefore prepared at the War Department
yesterday afternoon, endorsed by the chief Of
Engineers and the Secretary of War, and
dispatched to Major Lydecker by spe-
c,aa messenger mess n in order that 49,. he
This order directs that all work shall be discon-
tinued, but that Major Lydecker shall see that
the tunnel is kept free of water and that all the
muck is removed from the tunnel. The for
mer can readily be done with the un-
as authorized by the joint resolution
approved October 10. The latter must be
done without expense to the Government, a. ii
is a part OF the contract entered into with
Beckwith and Quackenbush. The order also
directs Major Lydecker to continue the exami-
nation of the tunnel lining to find out voids,
and in doing SO to cooperate with and
assist in every possible way the expert
engineers who have been appointed
by the joint congressional committee to investi-
gate the work. When a STAR reporter asked
Major Lydecker how much Of the appropria-
ton is unexpended, he said: 'There are ample
funds on hand I do not know exactly
how much is available Just now, for the
monthly accounts have not yet been computed.
There is something over S200, 600, however,
that can be used for this purpose" 1t is

Election Bets I'm Gotham.

From the New York Sun, to-day.
There was not much betting ON the election
down town yesterday, for the reason that those
who wanted to bet on Harrison wanted larger
odds than the Cleveland men were willing to
give. One block Of $1,000 of Cleveland money
went begging all day, and the best offer that
1t provoked was q, 900. In one case Harri-
son man offered to bet 500 to q, 600 on his fa-
vorite.
Gen. 9. h. 7. Coils, one Of the great repub-
leans OF the stock exchange, offered to bet
600 TO $500 that Harrison would carry New
York State by 10000 majority. Ex-Alderman
jenkins Van Schaick and another member of
the board snapped up this bargain on joint CO.
George Morgan, New Yorker, bet G. G.
thompson, Chicago railway president, o., 900
TO $500 on Cleveland. G. A. Gum, the Chicago
sporting man, bet 81 900 even with J. E. Schuy-
tie.
Mr.. John J. O'Brien, an iron merchant Of VIII
iiamsbulS, stands ready to bet 81 900 even on
the election OF Harrison and Morton. He will
bet the amount in one wager or viii split IL up
into 600 bets TO accommodate takers. Since
the Gays OF the old Atlantic Base Ball Club, Of
which organization Mr.. O'Brien was . patron,
he has been interested in sports and psstimes.
He and his money can be found at Mr. James ].

HE PREDICTS THE REELECTION OF CLEVELAND.
Representative Mills, chairman of the ways
and means committee, was at the Capitol to-
day looking over his mail Though not really
ill, MIR. Mills was feeling badly, no doubt from
overwork, as he has been rendering continued
and laborious service to his party in the can

aspect was favorable to the democracy, and he
predicted the reelection of Mr.. Cleveland.
MIR. Mills expects to leave for his home this

A RUMoR WHICH DIsQUIETED THE PARTICIPANTS
IN THE scRAPPINa MATCH.
A rumor, circulated quite extensively to-day,
to the effect that the prize fight of yesterday
morning was fought on Government reserva-
ton, and that the Departments of Justice and
War had determined to take cognizance of the
affair and punish the principals, hackers and
spectators created some apprehension among
persons who witnessed the battle. A SrAR

OPINION OF ATTORNEY RIDDLE AS TO THE POWER
OF. THE DISTRICT COMMISSIONERS TO MAKE REG
ULATIoNs.
The STAR has heretofore referred to Major
Moore's recommendations to the Commission
ers relative to the observance Of every pro-
vision Of law by the railroad companies. In
one part of his letter he called attention to the
rate of speed which is limited in the act Of the
legislative assembly approved August %, 1871,
to SIX miles an hour, and has since been in
creased to twelve miles an hour. The papers
in the case were submitted to Attorney Riddle
for his opinion. In passing upon the case he
says:
where you have broad and explicit grant
OF power over given subject as in the instance
OF the building regulations, I think You may
change, modify or repeal an act of the District
legislature. In the matter referred to, I am not
80 clear. The grant to the District legislature
was unqualified. When turn to the act Of
June 26, 1887, I find a schedule of the subjects
upon which you may legislate. Among them
do not find railroads and cars worked by steam.
l see also that you can make only usual
the subjects named. These qualities The
courts may pass upon. Now in this matter of
the steam railroads, gravely doubt whether
your regulations can supersede the provisions
OF the act Of August o. So far as could con-
strue them, SO both might stand where they
differ as now advised, should hesitate 10 en-
force the regulation. This more especially re-
10 more harmony, and the regulations may be
held to supplement the act Your ground here
is secure. As guardians Of the streets you can
regulate the crossings, and IL the prOyisions Of
the act are insufcientit is the duty of the Conn
missioners to make such a. are"

The Lowest Cost of Living.

Everybody is Interested to learn Just what

Some men have the ability to decide between
what sort of edibles are beneficial and what
are not; what will put tat upon their bones
and give strength to their muscles. This, in
fact, is SO important that everybody, and
particularly laboring nen and heads of fani-
lies, should know it. Listen to what one of
the best authorities says on this subject:

OF which must be water, and the remainder

show Just how much heat giving, flesh form

and he will soon take as deep an interest liz
what be eats because Of its worth to him as
because of it's taste. When he finds out-as
he can in bali ala hour-thet only n parts IN
every 100 of butchers meat count as flesh
