THE SEWER CONCRETE.
A SAMPLE OF 1T BROUGHT TO
THE HERALD OFFICE.
What a Workman Has to Say About It..
He Claims the Sewers Will Never
Stand Examination by Experts-His
Statement.

"Here's sample of the way the
people have been swindled in the con-
struction OF the sewers" said Mr.. Rob-
ert Connor, who lives at the corner of
Tennessee and Newton streets, to a
HERALD reporter yesterday, as he de-
posted chunk OF conglomerate matter
on the table. Mr.. Connor worked on
the sewers for over eight months, and
thinks he knows what he is talking
about.
''This piece of so-called cement l cut
out with a spade at the manhole at the
corner OF Fourteenth and Pine streets,
and thought would bring it to you so
as to show how the people of this city
have been made to pay for what they
did not get.
'The specifications call for six inches
of concrete, and ON top Of that one-half
inch of sand and cement, half and half
each. Now you can see for yourself that
this concrete is at the thickest point
only an inch and half thick, and the
cement and sand facing is not more than
an eighth of an inch thick. Why, sir,
the first sewage that strikes such work
as that will break it like paper.
"Now this coating of sand and cement
which is only one-eighth Of an inch
thick, in place of half an inch. 10 made
out of the sweepings of the invert, as
know. If thie concrete was what it
ought to be, it could not but cut with q
chisel any easier than gray granite, and
it has been set for three months, and 1
cut it out with spade.
II know what am talking about, and
can get eighteen or twenty affidavits
to substantiate what / say. tell you
animation by experts"
The piece of concrete seems to be just
what Mr.. Connor says it is, q dishonest
piece of work. It is soft, crumbles read
lily, and is four inches and half from
being as thick as the specifications de-
mand. Anyone who wishes to see it can
find it at the HERALD office.

PEACE OR WAR.
Uncle Sam Pays His Money and Takes
His Choice.


Uncle Sam Pays His Money and Takes
His Choice.
WASHINGTON, March 24.-The war de-
partment is taking advantage of the
cessation of hostility among the Indians
of Dakota, and has been engaged in
gathering authentic information as to
the probabilities of another outbreak
this spring. A careful investigation has
been made by the officers serving as
agents at Pine Ridge and Rosebud
agencies, and their reports ale not alto
gether reassuring. In substance these
officers assert that there can be, or need
not be trouble, just as the government
desires. An outbreak can be prevented,
or on the other hand a very little will
fan the slumbering feelings of the
aborisines into fashy flame. That is
to say the whole case rests upon the
care exercised in the distribution of
the appropriations. II the Indians get
promptly all that is due them, and if
there is not too much haggling, there
will be peace. But the moment the gov
ernment tries to pinch the Dakota
tribes, the hitherto friendly Indians,
who do not feel very complacent Of late
toward Washington, will, it is predicted,
surely revolt. Most of the hostile chiefs
have been taken by an Indian show for
an European tour, and remaining hos
tiles are thus short of leaders. They re-
alize perfectly we'll that the chiefs are
not held as hostages but have gone as a
matter of enterprise, and so they would
not be necessarily deferred from an out
break through fear of retaliation on
their fellows. These absent chiefs, how
ever, are perhaps the worst fighters of
the nation
