Work Now Progressing rapidly at
Mt. Pleasant.
THE MANUFACTURERS WASTE,
Dredging at the Mouths Of the Sewers
VIII lie Done But Not 30 Much AS
Might be Done ProfitabIy y Had Smells
From the River.

Matters at the City Hall are rather
quiet, and except the regular routine
there is nothing Of interesc going on. The
street work is being pushed forward rap
idly. and the workmen have already be-
gun on the Mount Pleasant sewerage
system. The work began on the main
trunk sewer at Valley street, and when
that is done the latest sewers will he put
in. and Mount Pleasant will be well off
for drainage. Three gangs of men are at
work there
The sewage from the Gorham Works Is
now running into the main sewer, and
emptying at Fields Point.
There is considerable dredging to do at
the mouths of the old sewers, and bids
have been advertised for. 1t is stated by
members Of the committee In charge that
there is a great deal Of this work needed.
but that only the smaller jobs are likely
TO he done this year.
The smell from the river off the Cont-
mental steamboat landing, and, In fact,
all along the river as far up as Wanskuck,
attracts attention again as the weather
grows warmer. That the worst OF 1t is
not caused by sewage Is plain when one
goes as far up as kinsley avenue, or
farther. and finds it just as bad or worse
II is unfortunate tina: Summer visitors

port or down the Bay should get so bad
an impression of our drainage facilities,
which really are not bad, SO the officials
say. The river along Canal street, for in"
stance, Ia very unpleasant to reflect upon.
The plans of the city for taking case OF
the manufacturers waste in some way
are yet in allegiance. but the committee
in charge of the matter has investigated
it carefully during the past year and the
engineer has been securing facts from
abroad during the winter.
The committee will meet in a short
time and may be prepared before long TO
report some plan for the work. The main
question involved is whether the city
shall take care of the wastes itself or
compell the manufacturers to do so.
There is no question as to the practical
bility OF the scheme and in many cases
profit has accrewed to the manufacturers
by the process.

WILSON'S QUEER EXIT.
A Missing Boston Jewe|Ier Left
Heavy Liabilities.
HE BORROWED AND DEPARTED.
No Criminal Proceedings Yet Taken He
Has Liabilities In Providence and At
tleboro. but q Boston Firm 10 the
Largest Loser.

BosroN, May 1s.g-On Saturday, Il. r..
Wilson, who has beeu doing business at
400 Washington street under the firm
name OF Il. F. Wilson & Co.. as wholesale
dealers in watches, diamonds and jewell
ry, disappeared. A superficial examina-
tion of his accounts shows hat his liabili-
ties are much more than his assets, which
are perhaps 1000. 1t appears, too, that
the firm has overdrawn its accounts, and
it is Inhabited to several of his friends for
more or less loans. The amount OF busi-
ness which Wilson q Co. did last year
amounted to about 100000.
One of Wilson's creditors in New York
says that the heaviest creditors of the
firm are in New York, and that the
the balance distributed In Boston, Provi-
dence and Attleboro; about 10000 being
in Boston and a similar amount divided
between Providence and Attieboro.
Among the creditors in Boston ara ID. G.
Percival Il Co., Morrill, Bros. Il Co., III. q.
Speare q Son, Il. j. Boyce, Bay State
son, Floyd, Pratt < CO. The Arm m Of Per-
cival q Co. are probably in for the largest
amount.
1t is said that Wilson borrowed $500 or
$500 on Saturday before he disappeared; |;
and 1t is thought, by those who claim to
know, that he had no thought of abb
sconding (if he did abscond) before Sat-
urday, and that he acted under sudden
impulse.
1t Is claimed he became discouraged.
so far no criminal proceedings have been
instituted against Wilson. His books
will be examined today. 1t is thought
that he did not go to New York, as he
said he would, but that Montreal was
his destination.

Two Horses Started at Constitution Hill
and Created Excitement.

An exciting runaway occurred on North
Main street this afternoon. Two horses
attached to awatering cart started to run
from the foot of Constitution Hill. AS
they ran they became more and more
frightened until when halfway down the
street both were tearing along with the
speed of the wind. Foot passengers
sought safety in convenient doorways aud
held their breath while the team dashed
by; the water squirting up In n hage
column from the top of tide cart at every
leap of the infuriated beasts. The dri-
vers of the various carriages and carts
urged their horses into lanes and down
side streets until the team passed. AT the
street the horses slipped and fell and
were then secured.
