New Principles in Physics.

\ Mr.. Lewis, Of this city, claims to

pressure Of the atmosphere could only

il has not been found possible To raise
water quite that distance 10y means of n

THE COMMON COUNCIL
Regular Meeting Held
Last Night.
LITTLE BUSINESS DONE.
The Republican Members Refuse to
Organize Committees.

When the members of the Common
Council began tn gather at the City Hall
last evening, they were surprised To find
the City Hall locked and in darkness
Immediately cries arose among the most
rabid Republican members that it was a
scheme OF Mayor Carroll and City Clerk
Sbley to freeze them out in punishment
for the action OF the Republican members
OF the Board of Aldermen.
When Clerk Getchell arrived President
Pierce despatched him To the home of
Janitor French To see what the matter
was. When that official arrived he dis
PEELED all fears by stating that il was en-
tirely an oversight on his part and neither
Mayor Carroll nor City Clerk Sibley had
any hand in it.
As II was after s o'clock by this time,
President Pierce called the meeting to
order as soon as the Council chamber was
reached and the only absentee was Mr..
Tingley, Chairman OF the Republican
City Committee, and Councilman from
the Fourth Ward.
After the reading OF the records, ii was
discovered that there was no hour fixed
for the monthly meeting and on motion
OF Mr.. O'Brien il was voted that the hour
OF meeting for the regular monthly meet
ings be s o'clock p. m.
The order Of business was then called
by the President until he reached the call
of committees, when he suggested that in
asmuch as none of the committees had
organized, the roll call might be omitted.
There was no objections to this course.
Mr. O'Brien suggested that recess be
taken to allow the committees To organ
lze and Mr. McCabe moved that "A recess
OF 10 or 20 minutes be taken for that pur-
pose. This was lost on a roll call vote rs
follows.
Ayes Messrs Clark, McCabe, McDuf,
McKeough and O'Brien-5.
Nays-Mr. President Pierce and Messrs.
Binford, Bryant, Collins, Davis, Delany,
Gorton, Lennon and Whipple 9.
Absent and not voting Mr.. Tinglcy-1.
Mr.. O'Brien presenteda a joint resolution,
directing the City Clerk To prepare and
have printed and bound the usual num-
Der OF copies OF the city manual and it
was adopted.
Nobody else seemed to have any busi-
ness to present, so, on motion OF Mr.
McCabe, the Council adjourned.

WON'T Do IT AGAIN.
The Pay Rolls Now
Properly Signed.
WHO GAVE THE ADVICE?
The Republican Kickers Get Down
From Their High Horse.

A conference between the City Solicitor,
Highway Commissioners, Chairman
O'Reilly of the Committee on Streets and
Bridges and His Honor Mayor Carroll
was held in the Office of the City Treasurer
yesterday afternoon at = o'clock, and the
pay roll OF the police, highway and street
departments were signed.
1t transpired during the conference that
either wrong advice was given by the So
licitor or else the Commissioners OF High
ways interpreted it wrongly. 1t could
not be determined very clearly as both
are very polite gentlemen. There is no
danger of the same thing occurring again
as all promised allegiance to the powers
that be in the future. The conference
then separated.
Mr.. Winters was to have been present,
but, at the last moment, 'ound it impossi-
bic to attend.

The dialogue published in the TRIBUNE
on Monday took place at the meeting Of
the so-called Council on Saturday and
was correctly reported.
As to the correspondent better serving

they surrendered the Itata because they

A REMARKABLE SPECTACLE.
Big Fire at Leeds-Loss said to BE
E.5OOOO.


LONDON, Jan. 1.-THE great fire at
Leeds is said by those who witnessed it to
have furnished n most remarkable specta-
Gle. The railway station beneath which
the fire started was jointly owned by the
Midland the Northeastern, Northwestern
and Sheffield and Lincoln companies and
was built upon stupendous arches adjoin-
ing the canalized river Aire The spaces
in the arches were rented for warehouses.
In one of these warehouses, Watson's
stores, the fire originated, The stores
contain hundreds of tons of the most in
fammable commodities-soap, rosin, tai
low, oil, benzoline, tar, etc. Water was
powerless to eXtinguish the flames fed by
these materials. and the efforts Of the fire
men 10 control the conhagration were
futile.
Within two hours the fire had forced it's
way to through the roofs of the massive
arches and attacked the railway station,
which covered ten acres Of ground. The
building soon yielded to the fury of the
flames and fire spread TO adjacent prop
erty. The railroad tracks for a consider
able distance were ruined, and several
bridges over the Aire and across the arches
were also destroyed. The girders of the
bridges, warped by the intense heat, fell
nto the river, and some Of them. striking
5arges moored in the stream, sank the
after and their contents, thus adding to
.be loss caused by this singular disaster.
Meanwhile the masses of boiling rosin,
tallow and tar poured into the river, until
il resembled a vast seething cauldron.
When the station building fell in. and Mr..
Schoteld was buried IN the masss, his
brother, who witnessed the awful scene,
tainted Traffic on all the roads centering
in the station was stopped for many hours.
The loss by the fire will, it is estimated,

Discussed by a Committee OF the Pres

NEW YORK. Jan. 1.-THE committee Of
the Presbyterian general assembly On the
revision of the confession Of faith met
again yesterday. In section ill.,, of chap
ter g., the words 'innumerable multi
tude" were substituted for the words
''some of mankind" on the recommends
tion of large number of presbyteries
The words mot on account OF" were sub
stituted for without" in the same chap
ter. The doctrine of preterition will be
either sustained or expurned from the
confession. The committee is divided On
