HE OBJECTS VIGOROUSLY.
MIR. Morris Does Not Want a Cross
Town Line on l. Street.

Mr.. W. J. Norris writes to the Commits
soners today concerning a cross-town
railroad follows:
at is announced that the Engineer Com
missioner has under consideration a Senate
bill granting further cross-town privileges
to the Belt Line, and that on account Of
some mechanical difficulties in crossing
the cable line at Thomas Circle. the line
was to be showed another block further
south TO l. street. 1t is understood, how
ever, that vigorous kick by II street
property owners has been largely the cause
of the proposition.
1T would seem that before seriously con-
siderng the ACCESSIBILITY of giving up so
narrow a street as l. to the almost com
plete occupancy of a corporation the pow
ers that be should have borne in upon them
the fact of demand for q cross-town
line in the locality. Is there any such pub
lie demand? ] assert that there is no such
demand and that there is absolutely no
necessity for present sacrifice of the rights
of l. street residents and property owners.
Laying aside as not entitled to Il moments
consideration the hOrSe-leech demand of the
corporation which would take the earth and
fullness thereof If il could get the same
for nothing the owners of badly To-
Gated hall who would have street car lii eS
in every street, provided they bid in their
direction. the question is have the people
who have no personal interests to serve
who would be most injured, any rights that
should be respected?
IL street is one of the narrow streets
already given uD west of 18th street TO
the occupancy of the telegraph monopoly,
whose huge masts, bearing 100 wires dark
en- our windows. theaters, our lives and
shut out just so much of air and space
Why should it be contemplated to take
away another of some few comforts quite
without necessity? Is it on the prn ciple
to him that hath shall be gwen AMI TO
him that hath not shall be taken away
even that he hath" The j. street Iesi-
dents are in the latter category. Massachu-
sets avenue, just north. four times ~ wide,
is free from distractions, aud none are
proposed to him that hath shall be given
in the way of light, air, space. quiet and
freedom from corporation occupancy.
There is no existing need for multiple
cation of cross-town lines between II street
and G street and Pennsylvania avenue west
from 18th street. 1t is ten years too soon.
And when there comes a public demand
it can better be assured by allowing an ex-
tension of the existing line westward on
Z and O streets, the exact midway between
L and G.. 1t is certainly an outrage TO pro-
pose another crosS-town line SO FAR south
as L street at this time

McKANE'S ASSOCIATES.
JamisOn Convicted and Newton Pleads
Guilty.

BROOKLYN, March 22.-After being out
all night the jury in the case of Constable
Andrew Scott Jameson of Gravesend
brought in verdict of guilty this morning.
Jameson was charged with perjury in
connection with assaults on Col Bacon
and the republican election watchers at
Gravesend on election day, last November
He signed four complaints against members
of the party of republicans handed him by
Justice r. V. B. Newton, and which were
grossly false.
Justice Newton appeared in court this
morning and pleaded guilty to "offenses in
connection with Gravesend election cases"
He was sentenced to ten months in prison,
with a fine of $780,

Counsel for Jameson in closing yesterday
made a scathing attack on Justice Newton,
denouncing him the guilty principal and
Jameson as the ignorant tool.
Newton is in an unenviable situation in
this case" said Mr.. Patterson. IF the
facts were as he himself represented them
he was a much more wicked man than has
been supposed. He was magistrate. Did
he not know there was a conspiracy to pro-
cure fraudulent vote?
IF there was such a conspiracy, Newton
was in it, aye, ten times deeper han Nc
Kane himself. Newton was the architect
of that wonderful puzzle of election dis
tricts. He knew when Col. Bacon and his
friends were put into thar van that they
were guilty of no offeuse against the law
He went to Coney Island, probably with an
agreement with the other conspirators that
he'd better let them so. He was told TO let
them go.
IF he got Jamieson 10 sign the COM
plants he was guilty Of subornG ton of
perjury. even on his own testimony. New
ton knew the complaints were false. What
did he do? If he had any heart or con-
science or nerve blood ne would have
refused to let Jameson swear to what he

black in his heart, by his own evidence
He was five times worse than Jameson,

Mr.. Ston continued the ~elding of Nj
Browns deposition. Mr.. Carlisle objected
to this part of the deposition because it was
a reference to Mr.. Browns diary as 20 Ger
tain visits he made to Mr.. Rodcs Judge

competency of the evidence. At best It was
very remote. Several visits were made 10

Deponent was certain that Mr. Breciin-

reasons. Was also certain hat Mr. Rreck-

Then Mr.. Carlisle read the cross-examfla-
ton of the deronent. The occasion of his
first meeting with Mr.. Breckinridge was
gone into at some length. MI Brown said
he was not 4 politician and had never done
any political work for Mr.. Breckenridge.

CITY IMPROVEMENTS.

Now is the time to agit8te the m8cad
 amizIng of Congress street, we have re- cently had an experience of dust, fol- lowed by mud knee deep. Pedestrians passing to and fro on the sidewalks were bsspattered with mud thrown up by the hoafs of passing horses. It seemed i'm
 possible to escape deluge of mud if person was compelled to walk a block or two, when the mud was at its worst. If it became necessary to cross Congress street, the shoes were incrusted with a coat of mud requiring determined ef- fort on the part of the pedestrian to keep on his way. This is an execrable and wholly unnecessary state of affairs and should be remedied with as little delay as possible. Congress street is so narrow that it can be easily and econo- mically paved with broken rock. The rock abounds ip our immediate neigh borh ood, and should be utilized without further delay, as the street is at times a disgrace to the city. Both in dry and wet time a macadamized pavement would serve our purpose until some bet ter substitute might be found. The street committee do all in their pow CT, but without a pavement it is impos- sIble to keep the street In good shape.

HoN. j. A. KAssoN, of Iowa, thus defines national protection, which is now and always has been advocated bv the repu blicsu party: "It means leRisla- tive encouragement to the employment of American capital and labor at home in the development of all our natural sources of wealth and prosperity, instead of sending our capital abroad to aid ID the production of foreign wealth and to pay for foreign labor. Itmeans legis- lative security against the dependency of the nation upon foreign countries for its means of defense, and of our people for their pecessaries and comforts of life. It means legislative barriers against the exhaustion of the wealth of the country by sending It abroad in ex- change for perishable articles, instead of using it at home in exchange for the like articles produced by American labor from the earth or in the factory. In the former case both money and the article it buys are lost to our country; in the latter, the money stays at home and goes on buying"
