SEVERAL CLAIMS FOR DAMAGES.

The appraisers on behalf of the government
who have had the fixing of q value for the Penn
sylvania and Courtstreet property required for
p~ostofics extension purposes, presented their re-
port to the United States District Court yester-
day. The appraissment sets forth the values
heretofore given, q separate reports being filed
for each piece of property. the tenants being
disposed OF without any allowance whatever;
and before the business Of the day ia the
United States clerks Office was through, a
half dozen Of them had thoir petitions
and schedules for damages on file in
that Office. John Wsilacher, who says he is
q yearly tenant in the room next to the post
Office. asks for So. 741.4O, which he will lose by
being compelled to move. He first enumeraies
his loss on licenses, that from the city being
ment at 1914 He also claims $50 for a sewer
connection he had made, 5000 he spent for q
furnace, and s7S for a new floor. The damage
to saloon fixtures through removal will be
81, ZOO, and in loss of business 60. 900. A few
other items are added to make up the aggrs-

he wants pay for decorations, valued at $3.50,
and a tile floor which cost 500. In all. MIR.
Walker would like to have $40, $50. Henry

always has n stock of $50, 900 on hand, and that
he does a large business, the suspension OF

cause an additional loss of $500, and. TO get
his goods to another place, he
must expend at least $500. There
is also an add ton of 80, 900 difference between
the rental value of the place he now has and
any other one he may obtain suitable for his
business, the excess of rent being in favor of
the latter, he wants covered by an allowance.
He asks for 81, $50 10 reimburse him for an ex-
penditure he has made in having the room in
which he Is now improved, but the largest
specific loss falls in the way of trade and good
will. which he estimates at So, 800. To retain

extra advertising, and as he will have TO pay a
bonus in obtaining o lease on property equally
as good for his business, he would like to
have additional 5000 for that purpose.

Charles Bates. jr., has a job printing Office on
Court street and places his damages at 81, 000.
Ed 2. Fulmer asks for only $GlI.50, while Ed
+. Clark, a saloon-keeper. specifying solely his
three years lease on the Couri-street property
he occupies, is willing to leave the rest TO ap-
praisers. There are only a few other tenants
and it is probable additional claims will be filed
today.

An Arbitration Law Desired.

The present trouble has revived among rail-
road employees the talk about the necessity Of a
national arbitration law. "The Locomotive

law for years said one of them yesterday.
''The most encouragement We ever received was
from General Harrison in one of his addresses

could not do a greater favor TO the railroad em-
ployes Of the country than to pass such a Law.
There ought to be g railroad arbitra-

for the selection OF a commission by both sides
wheE q difference arises. In the case OF the
s~witchmen. there is no doubt but that three

au hour so that both sides would be satisfied.

There was a meeting of the Council last night,
called for the purpose Of extending the time by
which the Vulcanite Pavement Company is re-
quired to complete the Wasning,on-street pave
ment. According to the e~ontract, the time would
expire Dec. /. The company presented a petit
ton, calling attention TO the fact that the work
had been greatly delayed by forty days rain in
two months. The only member OF the Council
who opposed the proposed extension OF sixty
days. Was Mr.. Hicklin. DO gave no reason for
his opposition. and the petition was granted.
A resolution suspeuding for sixty days that
section OF the gas ordinance which provides tia
20 connections should be made after Dee. / was
introduced by Councilman Trusler. He stated
that many poor people on the South Side had
put all their summers savings into the Con-
sumers' Trust Company, and now found that
they could not get cas- this winter. because the
company bad been behind with its work, and
because the ordinance would not permit con-

VIII. Probably Settle with Him.

The County Commissioners are showing a dis
position to make a settlement with Coroner
Wagner, and it is probable that som kind of a
compromise may be reached when the board
meets next Monday. DR.. Wagner has received
nothing for his services for twenty-five months.
In case the commissioners refuse to settle with
him on a satisfactory basis he proposes to bring
suit on each separate bill before a justice of the
peace, a proceeding which if permitted to go on
by the commissioners, would cost the county an
enormous sum OF money in the way of costs.

The first Masquerade of the season
Got up with the greatest of care,
Was quite success. For this reason,
We give to our readers, to-day,
The names If a few that were present;
There never has been display,
To us more attractive or pleasant.
Professor Wind furnished the band
Miss Autumn had sent invitations;
The costumes were dazzlingiv grand;
Attendance beyond expectations.
The fair Misses Maple wore red;
The Oaks came in purple and yellow;
The weather was fine overhead
Delightfully."- hazy and mellow.
The Vines shone in crimson and gold;
The Willows, with graces enhancing;
Young Spruce and Miss Larch, as of old
Were noted for exquisite dancing.
The Pines were resplendent in green,
They only looked on, quite delighted;
To make a success, it was seen
That not the least detail was sighted.
We might mention names by the score.
Professor Winds music was splendid,
And couples who ne'sr danced before,
Entranced by his melody, then did.
Delight reigned till sunset, we hear,
And then every dance was completed.
Until ft Their notice, this year,
These Masqueradcs will be repeated.

Gen. Sheridan After Gravelotte

The headquarters now became the
scene of much hustle, dispatches an
nouncing the victory being sent in
all directions. The first one trans
m;tted was to the queen, the king
directing Count Bismarck to prepare
it for his signature then followed
others of more official character,
and while these matters were being
attended to [ thought would ride
into the village to find, if possible,
some water for my horse. Just as
[ entered the chief street, however,
I was suddenly halted by a squad of
soldiers, who, taking me for French
officer (my coat and my forage cap
resembling those of the French) lev
eled their pieces at me. They were
greatly excited, so much so indeed,
that | thought my hour had come.
for they could not understand En-
glish, and could not speak German,
and dared not utter explanations in
French. Fortunately a few discon-
nected German words came to me in
the emergency. With these | man
aged to delay my execution, and one
of the party ventured to come up to
examine the "suspect'' more closely.
The first thing he did was to take
off my cap, and looking it over care
fully his eyes rested on the three
stars above the visor, and pointing
to them he emphatically pronounced
me French.
Then, of course, they all became
excited again, more so than before
even, for they thought | was trying
to practice a ruse, and ! question

count the adventure had not an Off

he told my wrathy captors who |

course, and made the most profuse
apologies. promising that no such

on; but not feeling wholly treasured,
for my uniform was still liable to
mislead, | was careful to return to
headquarters in company with my
delverer. There | related what had

would also permit me to go wherever
