INDIGNANTLAW- MAKERS
Threats of Steamship Lines
 Viewed as Bluff"
THEY DO NOT BRIGHTEN THE U. S.

Measures Now Being Considered in Wash
 ington With Regard to the Restriction
 of Pauper Immigrati0n-Mr. Chandler
 Introduces His Bill in the Senate.
 WASHINGTON, Dec. 14.-The London despatch announcing that the North Atlantic Steamship Association would, after the new year, carry only saloon and second class passengers, together with the comments of the agents of the various lines which are members of this associa- tion, has caused no little indignation among members of Congress.
 The action of this association, of which very few people not engaged in the busi ness of bringing paupers at so much per head into the United States had ever heard, is accepted here as being a kind of incorporated blackmail upon the govern ment of this country.
 In other words, it is threat by the as- socated steamship companies that they will raise the rates of passage across the Atlantic, and in that way lessen the tide of travel to the Columbian Exposition at Chicago, unless they are peSnitted to con- tinue their business of unfolding & quar- ter of d million of unwelcome additions to our population, many of them from the slums of Europe.
 Congressman Stump, who is chairman of the Immigration Committee in the House, says that the immigration com mittees of both branches of Congress will hold joint sessions tomorrow and Friday and that the representatives of the steam ship companies engaged in the immigra tion trade have been invited to appear be- fore the committees at their Friday meeting.
 As for the threats of the North Atlantic Steamship Association, he dismissed it as an idle 'bluff'' to which Congress would pay ho heed.
 A similar threat, he said, had been made some time ago by the companies that they would divert their trade to Canada. He could say that there was N determination to restrict, if not totally to suspend immigration, in spite of all the opposition of the steamship companies.
 Senator Chandler has introduced his bill authorizing the President to suspend i'm migration at his discretion.

WORLD OF SPORTS.

Jack Smith of Waterbury, Conn, at present in this city, is trying to arrange a limited round bout with Jack Aikens of the Nonpareil A. c. Aikens says he is ready to fight at 40 pounds. The con- test will probably take place at the next boxing tournament of the New York Athletic club.-New York Herald.
 Dave Foutz has been engaged to coach Princeton's base ball team.
 Willie Beckwith, the champion swimmer, died at his home in England yesterday.
 Billy Madden will not let Joe Goddard fight Frank Slavin for the $1O,OOO prize offered by the Crescent Athletic club of New Orleans. Billy says Slavin has a defeat recorded against him and he don't want his man to fig Int men who have been whipped. He also refuses to arrange a match with Jackson on behalf of Goddard for the same reason, but he says he will arrange match with Charley Mitchell on his arrival in this country. "Goddard will not gain any reputation by defeating Slavin," says Billy. Cunning Billy? Slavin is a pretty tough customer, and so is Jack son.
 P. H. Garvey of Northampton. Mass, writes in regard to the race on Thanks giving day with John Henry of Hart ford: Henry says he is willing to run me square race. will run him 100 ards and I will bet him $500 to $500 that beat him; let the Police News or the Boston Globe handle the stakes. He will not dare run again, and if he ever does I will convince him that I can do him the same as I did Thanksgiving. Henry should not squeal. He lost his money because he could not run fast enough, but there have been men that have lost their good money on hlm in his fake races that did not do half the kicking that he has done in this race.

s75o, ,ooo FIRE AT BALTIMORE.
The Greatest Blaze that Has Ever Visited
 the Water Front of that City.

Tho Greatest Blaze that Has Ever Visited
 the Water Front of that City.
 BALTIMORE, Dec. .14.-Alsxander Browns warehouse, at Bond and Thames streets, and 17, 900 bales of cotton stored therein, were destroyed by fire.
 The fire was the largest and most de- structive that ever visited the water front of Baltimore.
 It started shortly after 8 a. m. in the massive cotton warehouse of Alexander Brown, and quickly spread throughout the adjoining five buildings.
 The six large buildings were stocked with F, 202 bales of cottou belonging to the leading cotton firms of Baltimore, and valued at about $750, 900.
 With the exception of the countless bales floating in the harbor, the entire lot will, it is thought, be 8 total loss.
 The warehouses are a complete wreck.
 The walls of some of the structures have fallen, and the remainder are tottering.
 The entire damage will reach, it is be- lieved, about $750 900, and is covered by insurance.
 How the confagration started has not yet been learned, although the origin of the flames is attributed to spontaneous com buStion.

Thomas F. Devine of Worcester Given
 Temporary Charge of Bank Street School.
 The board of education held a special meeting last evening, which was at tended by every member. The teachers of the evening school for tho French people had been selected outside the list of teachers of the district, and it was necessary that the board of education should adopt the report of the evening school committee, and recommend tn at salaries be paid these teachers by the district committee. This action was taken. The teachers appointed for this school are Stephen Destaler, Mrs Emma Tros and Miss Dastout. The object of can speak both English and French and thus be more efficient in teaching the rudiments of learning.
 The Rev J. B. Bourret, pastor of St | Ann's church, was present by invitation and stated that it was immaterlal to him or his people what the nationality of the teachers were provided the teachers and pupils could understand one another, as Previous night schools for French peo-
 Rle had proved a failure. Of the 150 | Hnen and boys who wish to attend
 School, he said, two-thirds speak Eng
 ksh imperfectly or not at all, and their eesire is to learn the language of their adopted country. Over half have a
 Strong desire to learn arithmetic.
 \ Judge Webster informed the board
 that Miss E. M. Fury of Cheshire, who
 lad been appointed assistant to Miss
 Allen in the Bank street school, had de-
 elined the appointment, preferring to Fait until she be given a room. Miss
 Allen, who had been appointed tenn porary principal during Principal Nelli- 9an's leave of absence, also gave notice
 that she preferred her old position. The
 board accepted both declinations.
 | Thomas F. Devine of Worcester was
 appointed temporary principal of the
 Bank street school until Principal Nelli- gan's return. MT Henderson and DI
 Hayes recommended Mir Devine as a young man of excellent attainments
 after which the meeting adjourned.
