$l25, ,l65, ,2l5. She had no territorial debt whatever, but on the contrary had surplus of Sl5,504.sl in her treasury, when admitted. Notwith- standing the increase iu her popu. lation of nearly 100000 and a large increase in her taxable property, on the 30th day of June, 1890, she had bonded and floating debt of S35s, co. From this statement, which is official, and taken from the census report and the reports of the audi tor of the state and territory, it will be seen that Washington had nearly four times the population of Ari- zona. and nearly five times the taxa bic property, while her resources are so infinitely greater as not to be compared with this territory, and yet in one single year of statehood she changed her balsnce-sheet from a surplus of sl5,50i.si to debt of s35S,000 The State of Washington is taken for comparison for the iea- son that, of all the new States ad- mitted recently, this presented the most favorable conditions. It is an easy matter for one, who pays little or no taxes, to sit down and write plausible theories and predictions in regard to this matter, but practi- cal results do not always harmo- nize with theories.

The Needles Eyes, whose editor was an advocate of the confederacy, and if we mistake not was in the confederate army, has a very scnsi- ble comm ent on the following tele- gram:
 ~RIcHxoSD, Oct. 2s.-At the an nual meeting of the Army of North em Virginia speeches were made by Generals Early, Taliaferro, Rosser and Field. The last named said: I understand the Confederate flag cannot be unfurled at the Worlds Fair. If that is the case let us never have another Worlds Fair in this country"
 The Eye says:
 General Field, or General or Commodore or Minister Anybody else for that matter, who hasn't ct any more sense than to give vent to such a fool uttrance in a public speech, in private conversation, or on any other occasion, should be closely, severely, and eifectually mug zled. This is not the sentiment which pervades the breast of the gallant boys who wore the gray and who bore the bruRt of battle in the ranks of the Confederate army, and we are astonished that even Gen eral can be found at this late day who has so great a lack of courtesy, wh is so devoid of true patrio tism, who is so regardless of the feelings of those noble men who fought for the Union and who never fail to show their appreciation of their overpowered brethren. No army ever loved their flag more devotediy, no army ever fought with more gal lant courage, and patriotic devotion. than did the Confederate army, but the war is over, the question is de- cidcd now and forever, and accursed be he who attempts to SOW the seeds of discord. General Field MUST be

News and Gossip From the Commits
siOners Office.
In the reclamation of ground caused by
the filling up of the old canal south of
Pennsylvania avenue, very valuable prop
erty became available, but the reclaimed
ground has never been claimed by the
United States, nor has the District Gov
eminent asserted any claim to it. Believ-
ing that the ground belonged to the
original owners of the land (the Carroll
estate) Mr.. Leopold Luchs purchased from
Chester Goodrich for 5000 a lot which is
west of square $50 and corner Of First and
n streets southwest. Goodrich had
deed ON the property direct from
the CAROLS. Mr.. Luchs has discovered
that his ground does not appear ON the
Assessors books, and, indeed. as far rs that
office is concerned, the lot Is not in cxis-
tence. The owner desires to pay taxes on
the property and thus procure clear title
to il in case he desires to dispose of the
lot.
Some years ago he obtained a permit to
build house from Inspector Entwisle,
who recognized his proprietary right.
Ross A. Fish, attorney for Mr.. Luchs,
has sent the Commissioners n statement
of the facts in the case. with the request
that the matter be referred to the District
Attorney for his opinion.
Assessor Trimble says the property does
not exist, tn the knowledge of his Office,
and cannot be taxed until the District
Surveyor has made a plat of the ground
and reported to the Assessors office.
Frederick d. May is to erect handsome
residence ut 1437 Rhode Island avenue, to
cost $4,000. The building will be of

Is the architect and Charles A. Langley

Regarding the Commissioner action on
LIQUOR licences, Commissioner Douglass
said to CRITIC reporter this morning;
AFTER we have acted on all the applica-
tons rejected applicants will be given q
hearing by the Commissioners, but the
evidence which they produce before us
showing why their licenses should be
approved, must be new to the case. No
attention will be paid TO any old argu-
ments; The rejection Of an application,
after the saloon-keeper has made his argu-
| should he granted, will be final and abso-
| lutte. The money will be returned and
| the police notified to close the place.
The Commissioners have issued the fol
lowing order regarding liquor licenses;
That whenever an application for q
| barroom license Is not accompanied by
the necessary signors, the Assessor shall
at once notify the applicant in writing OF
that fact, and II the requirement is moi
complied with in u reasonable time, not
exceeding ten days from date of notilica
tion, the Assessor shall notify the appli
cant that his application is disapproved
by order of the Commissioners and that
he must withdraw his license deposit al
once, The Assessor will also notify tn,

Protests Against the Incorporation OF

Chairman Grout of the House District
Committee to-day received protests
against the bill TO incorporate the East
and West Washington Traction Railroad
Company. They are from the owners Of
property on Z street, along the proposed
route west of Eleventh street. He also
received petition from the people inter
estcd in the Alexandria fishing interests,
urging the passage of the bill to protect
the fish III the Potomac River in the Dis
trict of Columbia, and to provide spawn
ing ground for shad and herring in that
river. This bill was favorably reported
to the House from the Committee on
Merchant Marine and Fisheries at the
last session and placed upon the calendar.
When a similar bill came from the Sen
ate, the House jurisdiction in the matter
was by reference to that committee vested
in the House District Committee. II is
now in the pocket of General Lee, and II
is owing to him that no action has been
taken at this session.

Editor Critic: With your kind permits
sion we would like to use the columns of
your valuable paper to make statement
in regard to our appearing in the enter
tainmcnt to be given at Albaugh's Opera
House on the evening of the 22d Of Feb
ruary. We wish to state that the Wash
ington Continentals will take no part in
it whatever. The persons who viii take
part in 1t are not connected with the
Washington Continentals. The suits that
will be worn on that occasion have been
hired from the costumers or some other
parties.
They wanted to borrow or hire some of
our suits, which we distinctly refused,
for the managers of the entertainment
had partly made arrangements with us to
appear, which we would have cheerfully
done; but some other parties wanted to
have the honor of appearing in Cont
mental uniform, and claimed to be the
Washington Continentals. We would not
agree, so that ended the matter with us.
We understand that il is stated in the
printed programme that we will appear,
and we wish to state that we will not,

A Hrxpp.u UP WILL CASE.
Hearing In the Issues of the Late Sam
ueI Strong's VIII.

Wei StfOnES WIZ
The issues in the will case of the late
Samuel Strong were taken up In the Cir
cult Court to-day before Judge Cox. Mr..
Strong was well known in the District as
contractor, and at the time of his death
left real estate, as stated by his brother, to
the value of 10000 and a large number OF
debts.
The will that Mr.. Strong left is dated
April II, 1890. In IL he leaves all his es-
tate to his infant children, Caroline, 8
years old, and Samuel Cook Strong, 3
wears of age; Robert Strong and Colonel
William A. Cook are named as guardians
OF the children, and Messrs, Cook and
Strong, together with Geo. G. Peniield,
are nominated executors. William
Crosby, Chas. Il. Peniield, and Alamanda
il. Ross are the witnesses to the will.
The will was filed on May 8, 1890, for
probate and record. Later q cavcat to the
will was filed by Robert and Jacob Strong
and Jane Strong Webb, the surviving
brothers and sister of the testator.
On May 3, 1890, General Benjamin
+. Butler, through o. d. Barrett,
filed an objection to taking the pro.
bate of the will except before n Justice
holding the Probate Court. General But
Ter was the plaintiff in suit in equity
against Strong, which the latter in his
will requests his executors TO defend.
The issues were certified from the
Orphans to the Circuit Court, and ques-
ton whether the testator was of sound
mind at the time of the execution of the
will, whether undue influence was used,
and whether the paper purporting to be
the last will and testament Of Samuel
Strong is really such.
The jury in the Strong will case was
sworn in to-day at II o'clock. After the
noon recess the trial was commenced by
Mr.. G. c. Cole opening for the caveatecs.
The cayeators are represented by General
b. Il. Butler and q. ID. Barrett and the
caveatees by Messrs. Cole and Davis.
The first witness examined was William
II. Grossly, one of the witnesses to the
will of Strong. Mr.. Grossly had known
Mr.. Strong for many years and identified
the will produced In court as the docu.
mcnt which he had witnessed Strong sign
rs his last will. The cross-examination
was conducted by General Butler.

WILMINGTON, DEL, Feb. 10.-The COM
mittec appointed at an Indignation mass
meeting held in st. Paul's Roman Catholic
Church in the early part Of last week de-
nouncing the bishops contest of q free
European trip, held long session with
Bishop Curtis at st. Peters Pro Cathedral
last night. They objected to one-third of
the $4,000 going to the relief of Ireland,
and raised strong circumstances also
against any of the receipts being used in
helping to liquidate the debt on st. Joseph's
colorcd mission.
The Bishop finally compromised on
81 600 for Ireland, 81 900 for the colorcd
church and faithfully promised the COM
mittee that such contest would never oc-
cur again while he was Bishop of the do
cese. The committee failed to substanti-
ate the charge Of fraud against Father
Flynn, winner of the prize. The feeling,
Notwithstanding the Bishops explanation
and earnest appeal for harmony, still runs
high among the friends of the defeated
priest.

The Men Threatening to Go Out on the
Pennsylvania System.
TERRI HAuTE, IND, Feb. l0.-Master
Sargent of the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Firemen has gone to Pittsburg. AS Mr..
Sargent is also president Of the Supreme
Council of the Federation of Railway
Employees his trip to Pittsburg at this
time is significant. The trainmen of the
Pennsylvania system west OF Pittsburg
were out of patience because of the delay
of the company in replying to their re-
quests for increased pay and better ar
rangement for allowance for overtime,
when General Manager Wood declined to
accede to the demands.
1t is expected that there will be meet
ing of the executive officers of the several
brotherhoods to-day, and that IL they
meet with no success Mr.. Sargent will
call meeting of the Supreme Council,
which must unanimously authorize a
strike before tiremen, brakemen, switch
men or brotherhood conductors can 20
on q strike.
