NEW YORK, Oct. "a. 1S92.-Police Su-

wholesale ballot box stufing scheme of
the Republicans.
Mr.. Byrnes has taken such steps iD the
matter as will insure the arrests of very
large number of persons. non-residents
of the city. should they attempt to vote
on.Election Day.
It has been discovered that several hun
dred negroes were brought from Phila-
delphia for the purpose of stuff
iug the ballot boxes on cleo
tion day. The colony arrived early in the
month. Superin tendent Byrnes has To-
cate the small army of negroes. They
are quartered in lodgin G houses and other
available places throughout the new
Eighth Assembly district.
The presence of a large number of
strange negroes who were seen around
the district in the early part of this
month, was brought to the attention of
Superintendent Byrnes.
This led to an investigation aud the dis.
covery of extensive coloniZing. Detec-
tives have since been Watching the
colonizers and keeping track or their
movements.
Many of them were registered on the
first and second davs OF registration.
Under orders from the Superintendent
the negroes have been watched night aud
day and their every movement is known.
1t has been learned that every man In the
colony has had his expenses and board
paid for thirty days.
The discovery of such wholesale
scheme at fraudulent registration and
voting in one district has led Superin-
tendent Byrnes TO make thorough in
vestigation In various parts of the
city from which reports of Illegal
registration have been received. 1t is said
that there will be over 1000 warrants out
on Election day for persons who have no

fesune OF the relations between the
United STATES and Canada under the
treat 3 between this country and Eny.
In nd during the past ten years, is received
with general favor in both houses Of con-
sress: There is more behind this corre-
tpondence than has been submitted to the
senate, II is well known that Canada has
assumed very arrogant and Obstructive
attitude toward the United States ever
since the exercise OF American jurlsdic-
tion over the Behring sea.
This colonial dependency has taken
every occasion TO interfere IN the settle
ment OF controverted points relating to
Behring sea, the fisheries and the canal
tolls, which were purely International
questions In addition TO this Canada has
violated every important agreement
Concerning Armed Vessels
on the laket. While the United States gov
ernment has rigidly complied with the
terms OF this compact, Canada has been
secretly at work constructing vessels,
claiming that they are revenue cruisers,
when they are really vessels which could
be utilized for war vessels
This action Was regarded az sufficient
cause TO warrant the abrogation of the
present agreement, SO that the United
States nay be free to adopt such policy
of defense and naval patrol of the lakes ~
they may see fit.

houses indicates that

TERMINAL AND SEWAGE.
The Work on Gaspee street Delayed by
the Building OF the Sewer.

the Building Of the Sewer.
The city of Providence has dedicated
the land for the layout Of the new Gas
pee street bridge, the abutments for
which have been finished several months.
But before the street is built the sewer
will be run through to connect two parts
of the improved sewerage plan
The sewer which will run around the
west side Of the city from Norfolk street
through Valley, Rathbone and Promenade
streets must be connected with the Dor
rance street sewer when IL is built and So
the plan is Co run il through Gaspee from
Promenade TO Cove street, thence through
Dorrance, Dyer, Eddy streets and Aliens
avenue To Fields Point.
The right of way from Eddy street to
Aliens avenue has not vet been procured
but there Is no doubt that it will be ready
when needed and the connecting sewer
for this part of the city will be furnished.
The other end of the same sewer rlps
from Norfolk through Benedict pond and
number OF short streets in that section
OF the city TO Elmwood avenue, and
through Sackett, Melrsse and other
streets TO Fields Point, where il connects
with the 9th - end, thus forming com
plete belt around the west side of the
city. Cranston street is the summit
whence the surface water flows north 10
tn. Woonasguatucket, while the sewage
flows nth from Oak street. This is an
Improvement over the Gray plan, which
provided for the pumping OF the sewage
TO make 1t run north with the surface
water.
Therefore until tho sewer is built in
Gaspee street, the street itself caunot be
built. The sewer has been ordered hut
the material has not arrived as yet. but
the work will probably be pushed
through the winter when once it Is COM
menced. The land for the extension of
Promenade street belongs TO the citv and
can be dedicated for street purposes as
soon as needed. The bridge over the
Woonasqnatucket at Thomas streets. aud
that over the Mashassuck at Promenade
stree, have been ordered but IL is not
likely that they will BE- begun until the
spring. as the work on the extension OF
these two streets has not been commenced.
