off. The knife was next aimed at her

A Defective Tunnel.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 28.-In view of the
continued accusations of fraud in the
construction of the Washington acque-
duct tunnel, joint congressional com
mittee took the matter in hand and have
submitted a report. The report says
that it appears from the report of ex-
perts and testimony taken to be beyond
all question that subst antially the whole
and every part of the lining of the tunnel
is absolutely and enormously defective,
and that it is scarcely too much to say
that there Is hardly any continuous
ten feet in length in the
whole lining where the backing, particlar
Iy over the arch of the line, is not either
absolutely wanting or only partly filled,
or where fully filed in, so badly con
structed as to make the whole backing of
the lining entirely worthless" The
committee find it would cost 100000 to
put the tunnel in proper condition, with
doubts OF success at that, and suggests
that an iron conduit can be built for half
a million.

An Honest Answer.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-Secretary Fair
child has sent a letter TO Chairman Mills,
in answer to his request for further in
formation as to the general effect the
senate substitute for the house tariff bill
would have upon the customs revenue.
After charging, that in spite of its dec
laration in favor of specific rates, the
senate bill has in many instances in
creased the high ad valorem rate.
The secretary says: "If, therefore, it
shall be policy for the government TO
continue and to aggregate as is proposed
in this merciess system of customs taxa
ton, it would be better, think, that bar
barism be made complete by the adop-
tion of specific rates than that present
carnival of fraud and deceit shall con-
tinue"
