the Matter.

CAIRO, May 12.-Dr. Zucchinctti has re-
ceived u letter from Emin Pasha, dated
Bagamyo, March 81. Emin says: When
left the hospital found myself between
the English and Germans. My klecision
TO return to the heart of Africa in the i'm
tercst of the Germans was taken when
saw the English were endeavoring 10 de-
rive advantage from the prestige of my
name. With reference to Stanley and
Tippoo Tip have information in my pos
session, which, il published, would create
a great sensation. Stanley would be the
first TO stir the people up against me.
BERLIN. May ll.-During the debate on
East African credits i'm the rcichstag to-
day Baron won Marschall explained that
the mission of Emin Pasha of Africa on
the part of the Germans will be confined
to establishing friendly relations with
those tribes in the interior within the Ger
man sphere of interest, and to estimating
the cost of forming fortified station IN
| the interior. On negotiations with Eng
land, regarding the boundaries of their
| respective possessions in Africa, the pre-
dominating wish of Germany was 10 go
| hand in hand with England aud cultivate
the common interest of both countries.
LONDON, May 11.-Stanlcy in an inter.
view regarding German movements In
| Africa said hc was wcaried by Englands
apathy and pliancy in regard To the OPP
erations by Germans, and said IL England
continued inactive the Germans would
| secure paramount influence i'm Africa
Following the advice given by himself
Germans went into Africa in SO aud his
advice has been repeatedly sought and
accepted by them since that time. The
emperor is backing Major Wissman. Il
is impossible for him To fail to advanc,

The house went into committee of the
whole on the tariff bill.
No one desiring to occupy the one min

by paragraphs for amendments.
Breckenridge of Kentucky, offered an
amendment to come in after the enacting
clause providing that any citizen of the
United States who manufactures or pro-
duces articles and sells them outside OF
the United States shall he entitled to ad-
init free of duty any article of commerce
which he may desire to rsc in his busi-
ness. to the value of the article exported.

products. Rejected; yeas ~, nays ~.
Breckenridge of Kentucky offered an
amendment proposing to change the date
upon which the bill took effect from July
next TO July 1, 1881. Rejected.
The enacting clause was passed over
and the clerk proceeded TO read the dutia-

about boracic acid, when Nietlringhaus OF
Missouri proposed an amendment max

cents instead of five cents. Rejected.
Covert of New York moved TO strike out
the clause imposing a duty OF a quarter

sonality, after which Covert's motto n was
lost. A motion was also made by Covert
TO strike out the duty OH sulphuric acid
which met similar fate. The commit
tee then arose and the house adjourned.

A TALK WITH MR.. DUNLAP,
He Has a Plan for Paying for the
city's Sewerage. s

City Engineer Dunlap yesterday sug-
gested that he would like to add one
little idea to the sewer question now
being agitated by TIE TINES:
"Somo citizens" said Mr. Dunlap,
think after we shall have borrowed
So0o,oo to begin tho construction OF
sewers, wo will have to keep on borrow
ing until the city is properly provided
with them.
81 did not mean to have it so under
stood in my talk OF Saturday last. My
idea is this (and possibly Mr.. Herring's
as welD that comprehensive plan be
adopted which will determine the cost
OF n sewer system adapted to the needs
of the entire city, from cast to west,
from north to south. Thea begin this
system by borrowing s2Q0.O00.
Nov we will suppose that tho csti-,
mated cost Of this entire plan will
amount to S35O,OO0; to this must be
added engineering expenses, q fair mar
gin Acknowledgements, and interest upon
the $500, 600 borrowed money.
when we shall have determined tho
proper amounts to BIO added to the $780,
900 land they are susceptible of calcula-
tion), We will divide the total by the
aggregate number of lineal feet of sew
cring contemplated under the plan, and
the product will be the amount which
shall properly be charged against each
front foot of AUDITING property.
Then we must levy tax upon all
property az we proceed to lay the sewer.
This money il to be collected, as other
taxes are. From it is to be taken, first,
proper sum for the payment Of tine in
terest account; second, certain proper
ton of the whole to provide u sinking
fund for tho redemption of tho $500, 900
bonds at maturity. Then the remainder
shall be applied to the laying of sewers
in the other sections OF the city as it
becomes necessary, from which sewers
as they are laid, other sums will be laid
aside for SINH Ar purposes, and SO on
until the city is severed according to
the plan agd tho 100000 is lifted.
This Will be much better, even if
tho whole cost should bc $500. 900, than
TO borrow that amount out of hand and
pay the interest upon it. 1t will not
require the city to b,como cncumbered
any more dian $500, 900 for this purpose,
thus rcserving the citys credit for
other needs, and it will also secure the
sewers as rapidly as Tho growing wants
OF the community require
