PUTTING ICE UP,
One Of the Large Companies Advances
Its Prices.

Some day wise man will rise up in the
land and explain why it is that the mercury in
the tube and the price of Ice always 60 up to-
Gether. AS is now it can only be called an
axiom, or self-evident proposition, which can
not be proved by any logical reasoning. but
whose truth is SO clear as really to need no
proof.
Some little time ago when THE STAR an
nounced that there would be rise in the price
OF this luxurious necessity number of deal
ers protested that it was a false alarm.
Would that it had been. Some
time ago the American Ice Company
present prospect that they will come down.
The manufactured ice companies said at the
time that they would keep to their fixed sched-
ule, as the fuctuating Maine supply had no
effect on their output.
At the Office of the Great Falls Company
this morning STAR reporter was told that
there had been no raise nor would there be- SO
far as they knew III their own case. They we're
unable to speak for the other companies as
it was denied that there was any such thing as
combine or agreement among the companies
All companies are supposed to act independ-
emily. A number Of housewives in this CITY
however. have been told by the Great Falls
drivers to look out for rise to a cent pound
for small consumers, but that it might not
come Just yet.
The Independent Ice Company raised their
prices this morning from so to 60 cents per 100
pounds for quantities Of more than so pounds
For smaller quantities the price has gone up
still higher. They do not deny the raise at ali.
but 60 on the principle that il you do not care
to buy ice Just try and see how well Won can
get along without 1t at this time Of year.

TWO IMPORTANT ORDERS.
The Commissioners Take Action to
EQualiZe the Pay Of Laborers,

At q special meeting Of the board this after
noon the Commissioners issued two important
orders, the first one being THAT the regular
meeting of the board of Commissioners
shall be on Monday, Wednesday and
Friday of each week at 2 o'clock In, when il
IN expected that each Commissioner will have
his report in detail Of the operations of his
special branch and make such recommends
tions as he may think the public interest
requires"
Heretofore the Commissioners had no spe-
eial time for meeting, and only went into board
sessions when the work. which had accumu-
lated demanded it.
The other order is even more important than
the above.
II is In relation to the pay OF laborers in the
county and the order reads as follows: THAT
the pay Of laborers of the same grade through
out the District Of Columbia shall be Uniform
on or after today"
The matter Of the pay Of laborers employed
ON District work In the county has long been
the subject Of much complaint, for the reason
thst they received about rs cents less per day
than those engaged on the same work in the
city.

Although there will be game of ball today
between the Washington and Hartford clubs at
Capitol Park, the weather permitting,
it is not at all sure that there
will be much, if any, more professional
base ball played here this year. The
crisis has come in the situation, which careful
observers have known to be shaky for some
time, and unless there is help received from
some source within week it will be necessary
to sell the club and its franchise and play
ers under the hammer at public
auction. President Hewett. after many months
of weary struggling against adverse circUm-
stances and lack Of support, has come
to the conclusion that he has
had enough of posing a
magnate, and yesterday afternoon he.
as the holder of a majority of the stock of the
Washington ball club. made an assignment to
Mr.. A. W. Coleman. of the law firm Of Coleman
d Coleman of 1904 street.
MR. CoLEMAS's INTENTIONS.
Mr. Coleman, the assignee, in a conversation
with STAR reporter today said: The situa-
ton is just this: the board of directors saw
that they were losing money and as is the case in
all lines of business, they took the only proper

play today's game, and, in fact. to complete

looking forward with some interest to the
games that we shall play ON the
4th with Baltimore, as il may be
that we shall have large enough crowds then
to help us out of the hole we are now in OF
course, if 1t should rain, or if the people
should not turn out, We would be very badly
left.
II shall have a talk with Mr. Hewett and
some of livestock holders tonight and We may
then decide upon our future actions. shall
look out carefully for a purchaser and shall USE
my best efforts to organize a new company
on different basis from the old. The trouble
before was that the stock was non-assess-
able and consequently every time there

to pay it himself and depend upon the
earnings of the club for reimbursement |
shall make first effort to find parties to a pri-
vate sale of the club, but if they are not forth
coming We shall have to resort to a pub
lie sale, that is if il is found
that there is no chance for profitable contin-
uance of the business. 1t is too soon vet to
say whether or not the return TO Capitol
Park will help us out, although there
have lbeen much larger attendances
there than at the old grounds. The stoppage
of the sunday games had nothing whatever to
do with the assignment. There will be no
changes made at present either in the players
or in the manager"
