Driver OF the Smashed Wagon
Wholly at Fault.
The fire board held a special meeting
yesterday afternoon and selected the
architect for the construction OF the new
fire station house at st. Anthony Park.
j. w. Stevens was selected for the place
and will receive compensation Of 4per
cent of the amount of the contract.
Plans and specifications will bo pre-
pared at once. ~
The board also heard the complaint
or claim Of the st. Paul Foundry COM
pany. for damages arising out of a
broken buggy. The accident happened
at the time Of the big fire at the coal
yards on Como avenue, at which time
the vehicle came into collision with one
of the engine companies. There were
a large number of witnesses OH both
sides. The witnesses for the company
saw the affair from various points, and
did not quite agree as to the cause.
After full investigation 1t developed
that the driver was heading directly
across the street, instead of driving
along the same, and the board held that
the accident was entirely due to his
own carelessness. The fremen were
eXonerated from all blame.

War Between Railroads in New
Jersey.
WORKMEN READY TO use ARMS
Threats Made to Employ Force
if Needed.
ONLY COURTS RESPECTED

WOODBINE, N. j, March l9.-The war
between the South Jersey and West Jersey
Railroad Companies has begun. The South
Jersey railroad people today commenced
the work of laying their tracks at this
place. In three hours it was expected they
would be at the point where they intended
to cross the West Jersey railroad tracks
They said they would cross the tracks at
all hazards. The West Jersey people were
at the disputed point prepared to give the
South Jersey people warm reception when
the latter tried to cross The West Jersey
and South Jersey people Were armed.
At IL O'Clock the South Jersey tracks had
been laid as far as the improvised switch
of the West Jersey road. A West Jersey
official Immediately tackled the following
notice on one of the cars of pig iron stand
ing on the switch
"Notice.-All persons are forbidden tres
sey railroad grounds under penalty of the
law.
by order of A. o. Dayton, Superinten-
dent
March 10. 1884,
The South Jersey officials laughed at the
notice, and said they would tear it down
when they got ready to go through.
But suppose the West Jersey people
have an injunction?'
I'VE can't fight an injunction here and
will have to stop, but If there is no injunc-
ton will go through before night"
large force of detectives, special Off
GERS and section men were scattered along
the West Jersey tracks.

GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE.
Chairman Bankhead's Efforts to Get
His Bill Considered.

Chairman Bankhead of the House commit
tee on public buildings and grounds intends
to make vigorous efforts to call up for con-
sideration the bill reported by his commit
tee providing for the acquisition of a site
and the erection of suitable building for
the government prin ting office. Mr.. Bank
head asked unanimous consent of the House
this morning to take up the bill after the
sundry civil bill, which is now before the
House shall be disposed of. Mr.. Burrows
of Michigan objected to consent being given,
saying that it would be time enough to
make the request when the sundry civil
bill is out of the way.
The bill reported by Mr. Bankhead's COM
mittee provides for a site in square 6SS, be
tween ID street, Delaware avenue, c street
and North Capitol street.
The government now owns portion of
this square, 2uSJS feet and the remainder
of the square can be purchased for 100000.
1t is estimated that by utilizing the parking
around the site basement area can be oh
tanned of 40, eco feet. The House committee
is particularly favorable to this site because
of its proximity to the Capitol. being distant
but one block, and the fact that it is close
to the railroad tracks enabling a spur to
be extended into the basement, thereby saw
ing $4,000 a year, the committee estimates,
in transportation.
Mr. Bankhead will renew his efforts to get
the bill up at an early date.

CUSTOMS FRAUDS,
Reported That Tariff Laws Have Been
Largely yiOluted

1t is reported that L. s. Consul Spence
at Quebec has discovered that Quebec is
the seat of operations of a gang of swim
dlers that have undertaken to evade paw
ment of United States customs dues upon
European imports in New York
More than sixty large packages address
ed to unknown parties in Quebec have
been lying in the examining warehouse
OF the Canadian customs department at
Quebec for long time, and suspicious
having become aroused it was found when
they were broken open that they contained
rothing but few bricks or other rubbish
1t is said that the fraud is a counter
part of that operated in Montreal and
elsewhere in the name of a firm alleging
to have offices in Paris and New York
Information to the operations of the
clique elsewhere is TO the effect that the
goods arrived in New York in bond and
were apparently reshipped to Montreal
and other Canadian points without paw
rent of any American customs duties
ConfederateS in Canada received by the
cases in question an inferior class of goods
altogether, the change of contents having
been made in some cases while the goods
were being conveyed from New York ware
houses to railway stations and at other
times similar packing cases. bearing al
most identical marks, being substituted al
together EN- route for the imported cases
with their valuable contents.
The smuggling into New York of the
contents alone of the packages shipped to
Quebec means a loss of many thousands
of dollars to the American customs.

ADMIRAL BENEAM'S TRIP.
Secretary of the Navy Receives News
of His Movements.

The Secretary of the Navy has received
a cable message from Admiral Benham at
Rio saying that in obedience to depart
ments orders to proceed to Bluefields. Mica
ragua he sailed yesterday from Rio on the
flagship San Francisco for ST. Lucia, w. l..
where short stop will be made for coal.
after which he will proceed direct to the
Mosquito country. His departure from. Rio
leaves Capt. Phillips of the New York IN
command of the naval forces there, he be-
ing the senior officer present. 1t will take
the San Francisco about eighteen days to
make the trip to Bluefelds, so that ii will
be about April when she reaches there.
AS Admiral Benham retires April 10, he viii
have but four days active duty after his
arrival 1t is probable that Commodore
Meade. will be ordered to relieve him at
Bluefeds on the day of his retirement.

Undoubtedly the trial has reached the

courts. 1t possesses legal complications
which give It an interest aside from the
zes- impaired TO it by the very large
ar.ou1r Of scandal which is bound up in
tire dTy-i,ok,ng record of the case.
Already much has been suggested about
the plan OF defense. At first it was limited
tat tire defense would be a purely legal
one-on the technical ground that Mr..
Rre.kinriige had been privately married
April %. and was incapable of entering
irto contract Of marriage after that
date. The defense. however. through
various spokesman. have disclaimed any
ipIention Of evading responsibility in this
way. As matter Of fact, there is evil
