CITY HALL AFFAIRS.
What There Is Of Interest in Various
Departments in the Hall,

The park commissioners have decided to
give the name of Admiral Hopkins park
TO the Hopkins burial lot, and to recon-
mend the name of Burnside park for the
Davis estate instead of Davis park.
The fire alarm service announced at
ll:30 no session of school this afternoon
and of course the weather began to ,aod-
crate at once.
The books on which the names of regis
try voters are kept in the city clerks Of
flee is good place for autographs, al
though, of course, the prominent business
and professional mems names are. not
found there because they are not registry
voters. 1t is noticeable that the hand
writing on the books is quite good ON an
average for hasty writing.
The sealer of weights and measures Is
getting ready for an active campaign in
1892.
The city hall policeman IS in a good
humor and has n fresh supply OF funny
things to say for 1892.
Mayor Potter was busy consulting with
the heads of various departments and
with the members of committees to-day,
but his clerk was unable to be out in the
face of the storm.
The health department man who in
vestigates nuisances, has the grip on his
list as about the worst of all.
The city clerks department is still busy
transcribing the list of registry voters
and will be until the 18th.
The new superintendent OF buildings
had not been in the Office up to this fore
noon. Sut. Cottrell was awaiting his ar
rival in order to install him.
III. X. Horton has been given the contract
10 furnish the department of public works
with cement.

The FINANCIAL NEWS.

The rate Of money is unchanged at per
cent.
The sale of Phenlx Bank to-day at "a
has had no effect in depressing the stock;
That price is readily obtainable, as the bid
stands firmly at that figure.
The feature of the hour in local circles
Is the attitude of Mayor Potter toward
local corporations and toward franchises.
IT, as the Mayor proposes, an appeal is
made To the Legislature To increase the
rate of special tax To be imposed upon the
corporations for the exclusive franchises,
it will be worse than useless. In the first
place, the Legislature will probably not
be so lacking in business sense as TO
change the rate of tax, and IL they did the
corporations would not one OF them
agree to any contract made under
the changed bill. Three per cent. may
not be an excessive rate in some cities
Indeed, 10 per cent. might not he an ex-
cessive rate. But the conditions OF Dusi-
ness here will not warrant any such rate.
There is but one corporation, III iact, tha6
could afford TO make "A contract TO pay
per cent for any period of time, III VIII De
remembered that common business sehse
governs the business of corporations, even
if il is beyond the comprehension Oh some
politicians.

In the House.

WASHINGTON, Jan. Elm the House this
morning the Senate resolution authoriZ-
ing the Government TO furnish "A vessel to
carry the flour donated to the Russian
sufferers by the milers of the northwest,
came up and caused a spirited discussion.
There was strong disposition on the part
of some members to have the resolutions
passed without reference 20 committee
while others favored reference.
Mr.. Blount made an earnest appeal for
immediate action. He said if it went TO a
committee it would be practically killed
Mr.. Herbert opposed Blount and asked
the House to have the matter referred to
the naval affairs committee with the un-
derstanding that it should report within
ten days. This, he said, would give the
committee time 10 ascertain which vessels
were available for such purpose.

DON'T WANT A DAM.
The Court Asked to Compel the
Abatement of a Nuisance,

The supreme court is asked to compel
the city of Providence to abate n nuisance
which Samuel J. Vickery and others, who
live near the Sandy Hook road and adjoin-
ing the Pawtuxet river, allege has been
maintained 10y the city-the damming OF
the stream and the consequent flooding of
the land owned 10y the complainants.
Years ago there was mill on the site in
question, and the stream was damned to
furnish the water force. The mill was de-
stroyed by fire in 1859 and portion Of the
dam was also destroyed. Since that time
there has been no occasion for damming
the stream, 50 the complainants allege.
The case was heard by the full bench Of
the Supreme Court to-day. James Til
linghast for the complainant, Nicholas
Van Slyck for the respondent.

NEW YORK. Jan. 6.-At the meeting Of

former corporation, first as receiver and
then as president. The new route be-
tween Brooklyn and Boston by way of
Oyster Bay is one pet project OF the new
management.
IL means also closer connection with
Reading by the Poughkeepsie bridge.
These two connections may help y. Y.
and n. T.. greatly.
It rs not so clear where Parsons comes
i'm, but il is possible that better connec-
tion between his system and Reading may
yet be secured to compete with II. and o.,
and the Central Vermont for Northern
tier" traffic.
