THE DRAINAGE QUESTION.
An Alderman Wants the Council I
Racaiva .JuStice

An Alderman Wants the Council to
Receive Justice.
An alderman stated yesterday to a repre-
sentative of the MORNING NEWS that some
of it's correspondents were, doubtless, for
want of better information, doing the board
of aldermen injustice. He said that from
the first, in discussing the Warning system
of sanitary drainage, the idea was to use
the lanes, and not the streets, in putting
down the drain pipes, and further, that the
western slope, Yamacraw and Robertsville,
is included in the Waring plan. That sec
ton was not overlooked in considering the
drainage question.
The gentleman also said that instead of
there being 100 man-holes to the present
sewerage system that there are 600, and
that these are not intended for ventilation,
but ere water trapped" so as to prevent
sewer gas from escaping through them.
In regard to uncleaned privies in the
suburbs, the alderman said that such locali-
ties are receiving constant attention and are
cleaned out twice a year, much to the dis
satisfaction of landlords who have to pay
the city for doing the work. He said that
he is heartily in favor of an i'm
proved system of house drainage, and
would like to see the work
begun at an early day. He favored agita-
the public would be aroused to the necessity
of the work and the city authorities
backed up i'll whatever they should do
toward that important work. He simply
desired that justice should be done the
previous and the present board of alder
men, who have done their full share in i'm
proving the sanitation of the city.

AT THE THEATRR.
1.-THE Streets of New York" Played Be-
fore Fine Audience.

1.-THE Streets of New York" Played Be-
fore Fine Audience.
1.-THE Streets OF New York; was played
before large audience last night and was
enthusiastically received. 1t is an old play,
but the older it is, the better it seems to be
liked. Frank Kilday as Badger made a
hit and Miss Laura Palmer in the dual role
of Aida and Mrs. Fairweather" won the
favor Of the audience at the start. Her
costumes were elegant and her acting was a
feature OF the play. Miss Libbie Kirke
caught the gallery with her songs and she
was recalled until she was hoarse from
singing.
Mr.. Kilday's Badger" was re-
markedly fine bit OF acting His
provoking inperturbability in the death
scene in the prologue, his good-naturei
insolence in the bankers parlor on
his return from California, and his amusing
way of keeping himself company with his
imaginary servant "Jeemes," all won NOR.
tied appreciation.
The play throughout was well received.
The spectacular features were admirably
executed. The fire scene in the fifth act was
realistic in the extreme, and the
gallery gods fairly whooped as the
red-shirtod firemen rolled in their hose car
riage and began playing on the flames.
The play will be given at metinee to-day,
and the closing performance will be given
tonight. Manager Jul s. Kusel, under
whose management the play is given, says
that the season 80 far has been very sue.

BIDS FOR NEW SHIPS.
Gen. Alexander Talks About the Cen
trails Affairs.

I
trails Affairs.
what is new in railroad circlesp Presi-
dent E. P. Alexander, of the Central, was
| asked yesterday.
Gen. Alexander replied that he could not
say that there is anything new in Central
railroad affairs. He confirmed the report
Of the MORNING NEWS that he had negoti-
ated the Central's new issue Of bonds while
in New York, but he Is not yet prepared to
state when bids will be invited for the con-
struction Of the road from Eden to Ameri-
Gus The surveys are still in progress, he
aided, but he is not inclined to promise the
date when construction will begin until he
knows he is ready to begin the work.
Have you taken any steps looking to the
addition of new vessels to the Ocean Steam
ship Linep
Ives, sir. We have invited bids for two
new steamships.n
The general said that he had just been
interviewed Try the representative of the
Augusta Chronicle as to what is the best
plan that can be adopted for the better pro-
lection Of that city against freshets in the
Savannah river, and when asked by the
MORNING NEWS reporter what were his
recommendations he said that he was I'M
willing to go into any detailed suggestion
without knowing something of the topo-
graphical situation of the city and outlying
territory. He has no data upon which to
base careful opinion, and would not,
therefore, act until the information is in
hand.
Gen. Alexander, who is invariably easy
of access by the representatives of the press,
was particularly affable and in the very
best Of humor yesterday, which may be
construed to mean that the affairs of the
Central are in excellent shape. Having
successfully negotiated n heavy block of
bonds enabling him to largely increase the
land and marine facilities Of the great sys-
tenn of which he is the executive head, his
happy frame of mind must be drawn from
a contemplation of the fact that he will
soon be able to advance the new enterprises.
