siderable attention here. was called up at
the meeting of the congregation of St

memorial was submitted as a basis Of ac-
ton:
The congregation of st. Mary's Church
respectfully represent to the city council
of Alexandria that the recent. order for the
extension of Pitt street south to the cor
poration line will occupy land which they
have purchased and paid for. In view of
the fact that some Misrepresentation exists
on the subject of the right to open streets
through what was lately known as Yeates
garden they respectfully ask that all fur
ther proceedings for the opening of Pitt
street south be temporarily suspended and
that the subject of opening streets south be
referred to the corporation attorney to re-
port:
First. When and how the streets passing
through feates' garden were dedicated or
condemned for public use.
Second. When and how such dedications,
II made, were accepted by the corporation
OF Alexandria.

an opening through their land to the Mt.

tne corporation of Alexandria free, through
lnelr land, the right of way along Royal
rankin street to the south corporation line

CAPTURE OF n sturS con Mt Norwich, Conn.,,
which Rushed In from the Sound.
NORWICH. Conn.,. July 11.-Up the broad
Thames River this forenoon came giant stur-
geon. plunging and leapinR. and right behind
was q shark that had chased the sturgeon all
the way from the Sound. fifteen miles. About
the tranquil horbor here shark and sturgeon
careered for fifteen minutes. while the water
boiled with their impetucus speed Five hun
bred people crowded to the wharves inter-
ested In the sight Now and then they caught
a glimpse Of the sharks dorsal fin. and again
a fash OF Its white belly when 1t flung itself
on it's back to seize Its prey. But time and
again the sturgeon slipped away and the thrill
ing race won't on.
Then five grlmy men from the cutlery shop.
with sleeves rolled up and paper shop caps on.
manned yawl and rushed after the sturgeon.
In two minutes they pulled their craft in tho
surgeons course. and the harnooner. erect in
the bow. drove a spear into the big nsh's side.
Blood followed tho lucky stroke. and with q
mighty leap the sturgeon cleared the water
and tore away shoreward. Then a desperate
chase ensued between boatmen and fish.
whereat the shark turned tail and scudded
away down tho river. Twice the river men
chased the sturgeon across the harbor. and
then the fish. in its needless flight, plunged
upon broad ledge at the shore that was
barely submerged beneath the river current.
A man rushed there in a boat and shot the
fish. The big fellow slipped of tho rock. but
he was done for. He rolled over on his back
dead.
The boatmen dragged him to Central Wharf.
where he was displayed to-day in Powers
Bros. market He was five feet long and
weighed 100 pounds. He was the biggest
sturgeon ever taken in the Thames River.

The Empire City Subway Company has OBJ
tanned from Justice Truax Of the Supreme
Court temporary injunction restraining the
Broadway and Seventh Avenue Railroad Com-
pany from using the cable conduits In Broad
way between the Battery and Fifty-frst street
for tele phone and telegraph wires. The In
junction was obtained by Lawyer Melville
Egleson. who contends that all electric wires
must be under the control Of the Board OF
Electrical Control. and must be laid in the con-
duits sanctioned BY that Board. These con-
Quits are owned by the Empire City Subway
Company. which built them. 1t Is not alleged
that the railroad has put any wires in except
for the use Of the road. but the proceeding Is
brought to forestall any general use OF these
cable subways for such purpose.
