CHANGES IN STREETS.

Work Recommended by tho Street
 Committee Last Night-Washington
 Street te be Widened-The Horse Car
 Track RaiIs.
 long meeting of the street committee of of the common council was held last night and much work was recommended. One of the notable recommendations was that for the widening of Washington street.
 The petitioners for hardening West Chapel street between Sherman avenue and Norton street were given leave to withdraw, as were those for tke top dressing of Washington street, between Columbus and Howard avenues.
 The top dressing of Elm street, between Kensington street and University place, was recommended, and the petition for the grad- ing and curbing of Henry street was tabled. Tt was voted to asked the corporation coun- sel whether the Grove Street Cemetery asso- citation could be compelled to pay for sides walk on Ashmun street, between Lock and Grove, if the walk was ordered. J. Fl. Kehoe asked permission to build | through which to lower casks and hogsbeads to the cellar. The matter was postponed and the law upon the subject will be looked into 1 in the meantime.
 Attorney G. H. Watrous, for the Fair Ha- ven and Westville Horse Railroad company, stated that the directors had decided to lay a grooved rail on State street between Chapel and the depot. This course l was adopted by the road rather than antag- onizs the city and other parties interested. Attorney Watrous presented several draw- ings of several.kinds of the grooved rail- He recommended that the committee select a rail with groeves as large as possible, for it would be easier to clear ice, snow and gravel from a large than from small groove. City Engineer Hill was directed to ascertain what kind of a grooved rail is used in Rochester and Buffalo. This will probably be recom- mended.
 The grading of Ashmun street between Bristol and Grove was recommended.
 Sidewalks were recommended on Chestnut street between Greene and St.. John, Lloyd street between Chapel and River, the west
 side of Greenwich avenue, Cassius street
 between Cedar and Howard avenue. It was recommended to grade Canal street
 and the grading of St. Roman street was laid |. on the table.
 The hardening of Whiting street between
 Meadow and State streets was recommended
 to he done after May, 1891. , The hardening of Chestnut street wal l tabled for the present. The petitioners fol [ the hardening of Chestnut street were giver } leave to withdrew. N E Tho wideninG ot WalhinGten stEsst uA =

Ladies Belonging to the R ussian Elm.
 bassy Forcl ply Kissed by a Turkish
 officer and Five Students-The Men
 Arrested and Detained in Prison.
 CoNsTANT1NorLE, May 23.-It has been ascer.ained that the ladies belonging to the Russian embassy who were assaulted while walking at Buykdere, were not the daughters of the chief dragoman of the embassy and
 her governess, but his wife and daughter. Neither were the offenders four Turkish soldiers, as at first stated, but were Turk ish officer and five students. The ladies were walking in 8 garden when they were seized by the officer and stu dents, who forcibly kissed them. A party of sailors belonging to Russian dispatch boat happened to be in the garden. They heard
 the ladies cry for help and ran to their res cue. They captured four of the assail- ants, but the fifth succeeded in making his escape for the time being. The sailors con- veyed their prisoners to the Russian embassy and delivered them into the keeping of M. De Nelidorf. the Russian ambassador. The day after the assault was committed the man who made his escape was arrested and looked up at the embassy, where he and his companions are still detained. The Turkish authorities asked that the prisoners be turned over to them for trial and punishment but M. De Nelidorh refuses to transfer them | to the Ottoman officials, passing his refusal or the ground that Turkish justice is illusory | The affair has created much comment and il | is feared that it will result in complications
 between the Russian and Turkish govern ments.
