Pittsburg Loses in n Case Ehecting Mu-
nicipal improvements.

PHILADELPHIA, March 16.-Under
the Acts of 1857 and 1889, known as the
street laws, the city of PittSburg pro-
ceeded TO pave, grade streets, and con-
struct other municipal improvements
until million and quarter of
dollars had been expended. The
acts. as construed by the city
authorities, gave them power to assess
the damages for the improvements on
property owners most benefited by the
improvements. A number OF property
owners contested this claim OF the city
and Common Pleas Court No. l OF
Allegheny county sustained their ap-
peal against the city. The city
appealed against the decision
OF the Allegheny county Court
and carried the case to the
Supreme Court Of the State. Argu-
ment was made in the case few weeks
ago and to-day a decision accompanied
by an opinion of Justice Williams was
handed down by the Court.
In its decision the Supreme Court
affirmed the decision of the lower court
and dismissed the appeal, placing the
costs on the city. In the two other
eases arising out Of the city's appeal
from the decision OF the Court
OF Common Pleas, the Supreme
Court handed down the follow
ing decisions, which were also
accompanied by opinion from Justice
Williams: First case-The appeal OF
the city of Pittsburgh vS. Allegheny
county. Appeal in this case is dis
missed at the cost of the appellant.
Second caSe-Appeals of George |.

dismissed at the cost OF the appellants

THE INSANE ASYLUM HORROR.
The Bodies of the Dead are stIll In the
Ruins.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, March To-
Thousands OF people drove out yester-
day to see the devastation wrought at
the Central Tennessee Insane Asylum.
Strict orders had been issued TO deny
admittance to all except those who were
connected with the press Of this city.
A reporter was the first man TO
60 through the heated cham
bers in search Of the bodies
OF the unfortunateS. The smell
of burning flesh premeated the atmos-
phcre, but only one body was visible,
and it was impossible to identify it, as
only a charred mass of flesh and bone
could be seen projecting from the heat
ed bricks on the floor. No effort has as
yet been made to recover the bodies.
The list of dead was yesterday length
ened TO II. Aside from those known TO
be dead there is now only one patient
missing from the asylum-James Bur
ton. As he Is known to have made sew
eral attempts to throw himself into the
fire, il is feared that he, too, is among
those who found fiery grave.

A Rabbi Opposes the Jewish Restoration.

BoSroN March lG.-Rabbi Solomon
SCHNEIDER addressed the people last
night on the proposition to restore Jews
20 Palestiry. taking strong ground
against the scheme. He said that
Americans had no business to interfere
in an European question. Palestine
could support only 1000, 900 people,
whereas Russia alone had 100000 He
brews. Furthermore, Jewish com
monwealth, IL established in the midst
oi the European powers, would either
be obliged to contract an alliance with
one OF them or be absorbed. One Of the
great reasons for the advocacy by
Christians of the restoration OF the
Jews is, in Rabbi Schindler's opinion,
their desire to bring about the fulfill
ment of the New Testament prophecy.

BRIDGEPORT WATER QUESTION.
A Correspondent Says Wheeling Is Not
The Place to Get The Fluid.

To the tdaor or me RegsteT'
SIR. There has much been said upon
the question Of Bridgeport getting wat
er. Whether TO build their own works,
get their supply from Martins Ferry
have franchise company build works,
or get water from Wheeling? The last
proposition ought TO be left out entirely
for two reasons: a. Wheeling's water
was condemned by theWeStNirg iniaState
Board Of Health, and e. there would
be legal objections against such a pro-
position. Now the most important
feature has been left out-viz.-PUK KE
WATER. IL can not be had from the
back river. There was once scheme
submitted To the water board OF
Martip'S Ferry, the principal feature
Of which was to build filter
ing crib at the head OF
the island. Upon investigation the
scheme was considered impractical ana
no hydraulic engineer OF known reputa-
tion would endorse such a make-shift.
The only pure water can be had at or
above Martins Ferry. The city could
condemn a right-Of-way through Mar
tins Ferry, but that with the add
tional piping would entail an enormous
expense. Water unless pure would be
dear as gift. A franchise company
would not be very particular whether
the water was pure or not, as II Is reye-
nue. that they are after besides they
would put in twice the number OF tire
hydrants necessary and the cheapest in
the market at that. A common hydrant
can be had for S25 and they would
charge from $40 TO 500 per annum for
each hydrant. Their works would be
built upon a cheap scale. on account OF
the possibility Of selling the works TO
the city at the expiration OF their
franchise. The talk Of building
good system of water works for
Bridgeport that would combine the res
ervoir System, viz: reservoir made
like the one at Martins Ferry mot
a large Sheet-iron tank for $4,000 is
the sheerest nonsense. Ii might be
done IN inland towns, where the huctu-
alton OF their water supply Is not over
ten feet during the heaviest rise. by
employing skilled and conscientious
hydraulic engineer the city could build
a water works as good as Martins
Ferry, but IL would cost from Sl25,000
TO 5000, 900. The Martins Ferry prOpo- /
sition is the best Of all. and, should be |
accepted, provided the new Council OF /
that city will stick to the proposition /.
made by the old one. The best plan OF /
all would be for the Two cities TO unite /
into one under new name. This would .
settle the water question, besides Civ
ing both places postal carrier system.
No one woud object to this proposition
but the politicians. INDErENDENr.
