Suit Against the City.

1t now begins to look as though the
trouble between the gas company and the
city would be settled amicably and at
comparatively small expense. 1t is said
by those who should know that the gas
people are not at all inclined to be unrea-
sonable, but merely demand that they
have such protection as they believe they
have right to. The question of damages
may be looked upon as Waived-at least
any such damages as are claimed in the
complaint recently lodged. The committee
appointed by the council has not yet had
meeting with the representatives of the
gas company, the latter prefering to await
a meeting of the board of directors before
they take any further steps in the matter
Mayor Armstrong condemns the practice
of laying the sewer lateral in the center of
OF the street, as was done on Main between
fourth and sixth south. 1T will not be
many years. he says, "before that portion
of the city is included in the sewer district,
and then the houses on that street rlust
necessarily be connected with the sewer
main. With the lateral in the middle OF
the street, the expense of laying drain
pipes from the houses will, OF course, be
much heavier than if the latterals were
LAID on both sides OF course, the property
owners pay forit no matter how it is done,
but the expense will be much lighter in
the end by going down both sides and thus
making a better job of it than can other
wise be dOne.n

Appearing in Figaro.
MUTINY OF MEXICAN RECRUITS.
Bloody Encounter Between the HatGeld-Mc-
Coy FOrces-Prosecution of Political
Assessors Case of Eva Craig.

Especial to THE HgRAID-Examirer Dispatch. !
PARIS, Nov. 1.-ISpecial cable to the N.
Y. Herald. - Figaro has commenced the
publication of a series of notes on Bou-
langism, the anonymous author of which
appears to be thoroughly at home with re
gard to the private action of the party. He
gives some curious details respecting the
project discussed by Boulangcr's immedi-
ate advisers, after his elevation OF January
%, and the divergences of opinion which it
aroused among the leaders Of the National
party. According to these notes, there
really was a question of attempting a
coup-de-force after the victory of January.
Paul Deroulede and Thiebaut were ener-
getic in their support of the idea, and de-
sired that it be attempted before the fall of
the F'loquet cabinet, the resignation of the
ministry being regarded by them as q
pledge of success.
On the other hand, Naquiet, Rocherfort
and Dillon opposed any attempt of VIC
lence. They advised only calm work, and
desired to contine the fight exclusively to
legal action and electoral grounds. La
guerre, La Herisse and Vergoin remained
neutral. AS for The general he was I'M
his own pleasure. Deroulede pursued his
projected plan of keeping troops, meaning
to accustom the members of the Patriotic
league to continual expectation he fire.
quently placed this army in review, going
from one reimbursement to another, to
strengthen the zeal of agents. He called
meetings frequently and made frequent
illusions to possible attack on
the Palais Bourbon. The illusions werc
always fraatically applauded. After the
SagallO incident, the Impotence of De
roulede and the league became greater and
and the men more difficult to control.
Naquct ard those opposed to the use of
force only succeeded partially in calming
them. At that moment the protest was is
sued which brought about the dissolution
of the Patriotic league Soon afterWard
the trial by the high court of justice com
menced and Boulanger's flight followed.
If the facts related are correct, there
really did exist plot in the Boulangist
party against the safety of the state, but
the high court of justice would have given
proof of very little discernment and equity
in condemning Boulanger, R0chefort and
Dillon and sparing DerOulede and Thiebaut
while the first named were opposed to the
employment of force which the latter ad-
vised and prepared. The story must be ac-
copied for what it is worth.

Councillor Blaisdel, of the sanitary CON-

committee:
SALT LAKE CITY, Oct. 30, 1889
DEAR SIRs-We beg to inform you that
we are now conducting negotiations with
Rudolph H. Herring, Esq, of New York
city, the eminent specialist in sewerage,
and expect within ten days to be able to
submit to you an offer by US
with Mr.. Herring associated to de-
sign yau complete sewerage system.
The gentleman mentioned is now reorgan-
izing the sewerage system in New York
city, as you are doubtless informed. No
one street of sewerage can be laid with
out the whole system being previously de-
signed. AS soon as we can complete ar
rangements, which we expect to within the
time specified, we will submit the PROPOSE
ton. Very respectfully yours,
STURGEs & BRYANT
The street committee presented report
and communication from the city engineer,
which, on motion. was adopted as follows:
Inasmuch as it is deemed desirable to adopt
uniform method of opening streets
in this city, north of Ogden river,
respectfully submit that the
system shown upon the annexed
diagram Is as feasible as any. 1t is obtained
by producing the present city avenues par
allel to Washington avenue by leaving the
sixty-six feet county roads known as Brig
hams miller's, Shaw's and Higginboth-
ANS lanes, and by intersecting the large
(half-mile) blocks between these. by four
stand west streets eighty feet wide.
This will leave blocks, approximately, 600
by $50 feet, convenient size for subdi-
vision by avenues, and will bring First
street one block north Of what is called
Lynne's five points This system of divis-
ion might be prescribed as as governing

PARIS, Nov. 1.-[Special cable to the

O'Clock this morning at the Gymnase on
the Alphonse Daudets, ia Lutte pour La

and attacked to be passed over. The piece
is the great topic of conversation today.
Not only the papers discuss it, but it has
just been published, with capital illustra-
tions, in LcttreS But does the play de-
serve all this attentions Had it borne a
less well known signature it would scarcely
have been so much lauded, or condemned :;
it would have been considered a bold,
rather than paradoXical attempt. The
plot is extremely simple. Paul Astier is
young, handsome, ambitious and unscrupu-
lous. He marrics a rich old duchess, ruins
her. runs after y rich young Austrian.
Knowing his wife will not allow him to
divorce her to marry Esther de Seleny, he
is about to poison the duchess. She
guesses his purpose, stops him, loads him
WithcOntempt, buttouched byhis repentance,
agrees to divorce. Paul is about to marry
Esther, and vice is to be rewarded, but
NJ. Daudet knows that would be revolt
ing. so the father Of the girl seduced by
Paul shoots him. This childish plot re-
quired no imagination. The piece IS well
written, but without emotion. 1t is bitter,

Kutiny of Mexican Recruits.

CRY OF MEXICO, Nov IA serious uIu-
ii occurred among the escort on the up
t. II from Vera Cruz last Tuesday even
ing. a corporal and four privates attacked
their superior officers, severely wounding
lieutenant, and killing a sergeant. The
object Of the 1nutineers, who were forced
recruits, seems to have been to stop the
train and escape. When the train was al
most due at Soltepec the mutineers
climbed on the engine with view of fore
ing the engineer to halt. The engineer and
fremen were heavily armed, and seeing
that they would probably fail, the ring
leaders jumped from the train and one was
run over and cut in TWO. The other four
men were more or less injured, but they
escaped On arrival at Soltepec detach-
ment of rural guards surrounded the car
and disarmed the remaining mutineers.
Two were taken to Mexico. 1t is under
stood that the men who escaped have since
been captured and brought to the city. 1t
is probable that the whole party will be
shot.

believe that the regular rates are fixed at

to give excursion rates, he characterizes

when railroad companies thus so dis

their regular rates are more than a fair

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-The Church Nc,cs,
Catholic weekly published in this city,
contains two columns of editorial in which
it is asserted the policy which those in
charge of the public schools for Indians
are pursuing is so directly antagonistic to
the principles on which our federal insti-
tutions are founded that I'VE have every
reason to hope it will be reversed after the
public understands the bigotry by which it
was inspired" 1t is then charged specific
ally that Dr. Dorchester, superintendent Of
Indian schools, represents spirit SO
hostile to Catholic thought that he seems
to be unable to do justice to Catholic
Indians. Commissioner Morgan, il IS as
serted, has proved equally bigotcd. AS
superintendent he appears equally anxious
to exclude Catholics from the Indian
schools. The writer charges that the
present management of the Indian schools
IS sectarian and that recently eleven out of
fourteen Catholic teachers were dis
charged. The specific charge has been sup
ported by Senator Plumb who has been
