THE FAMILY WASHING.
Il May Become the Subject Of Interna-
tional Complications.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1S.-An amusing
neighborhood controversy has been
brought to the attention of the district
officials, which illustrates one of the
possibilities of life in this metropolis.
Dennis sMurphy, who occupies hand
some residence at the corner of New
Jersey avenue and street, complained
to the commissioners that p. w Bud
neck, of the German embassy, who lives
opposite, shows a woful lack of pro-
priety in displaying his family washing
on the parking in front of the house. A
similar complaint was made some years
ago, but nothing could be done by the
commissioners, owing to the chancellor
setting up his official connection with
the German embassy, which exempted
him from prosecution under the district
laws.
DR. Is. Nelson, who lives in the second
house from the chancellor, said; "This
is an old matter with us, and MIR.
Murphy and myself talked over the
drafting of bill to be presented to con-
gress to give MS relief. If should at
tempt to hang out the clothes in front
the police would quickly stop me. But
the chancellor does as he pleases."
One of the district officials said: "This
may lead TO an international question.
The complaint will most likely be in
vestigated, and perhaps note sent to
the chancellor with the intimation that
hanging clothes in the parking is OBJ
jectionable to the neighbors. Then if
the chancellor refuses to abate the
nuisance letter might be sent the
German minister reciting the facts in
the case. and calling his attention to
VIRI .as.I .ol, Nc
prieties on the part of his subordinates.
If the minister fails to come to time
and calls down his chancellor the next
step would be an appeal to the secretary
of state to exert his diplomacy in secur-
ing the required concessions. 1t prom
ises to become celebrared case before
the end is reached

New YoRK, Feb. IS. -Manny Russian
Jews are applying daily at the Office of
the Russian consul general in this city,
to be sent back to Russia They are un.
able to make living in the United
States. The Russian vice consul. &, G.
Petersen says that The talk about these
people being expelled from Russia was
all nonsense. The Jews in Russia" he
said, "are restricted to certain provinces,
and in none of these provinces does
famine exist. It is not the Hebrews who
are suffering from famine, but the great
mass oi the Russian peasantry."

NEW JERSEYS INVESTIGATION.

Reading Of1icials to Be Called Be-
fore the Committee.
TRENTON, Feb. I8.-In the house Mr..
Lane chairman of the special committee
appointed to investigate the Reading
coal combination, offered a resolution
authorizing the committee to issue sum-
monses, order papers and documents
produced and exercise whatever powers
might be necessary in the prosecution
of its work. The resolution was unani-
mously adopted. The leading officers of
the Reading, Jersey Central and Lehigh
Valley railroads are to be summoned to
appear before the house committee to-
morrow to tell what they know about
the combination.
Assemblyman Tine has introduced
bill that is evidently intended to affect
the new coal combination so far as
freight rates go, and is probably part of
the attack that is TO be made on the
Reading deal on the part of the state
authorities. The measure provides for
the creation of railroad commission,
to be composed of the members of
the state boald of assessors, who
will have control of the regulation
of the freight rates of railroads, and
shall have power to prevent unfair dis
elimination. This commission would
have the right to regulate the freight
rates for coal, and that it is doubtless
the ostensible purpose of the bill. The
measure has been referred to the COM
mittee on railroads and canals, which
has charge of the fight under way
against the coal deal.

Parker Still in Danger.

PARKER, Pa, Feb 19.-The ice gorge
is still intact, and great alarm is felt at
Parker and other towns on the Allie
gheny river. The ice is jammed in a
series of gorges. One is at Brady's Bend,
another at Monterey, another ut Parker
and one short distance above the last
named town. The citizens of Parker
have tried in vain to cut passage
through the gorge. Dynamite has been
used but seems to have little effect on
the ice.
