Historic Monum.nt Begun.

New YORK, June 1.-THE society OF
the Sons OF the American Revolution,
to-day laid the base of a monument at
Dobbs's Ferry, designed to mark where
Washington had his headquarters In
1888. The monument stands in front
of the old Livingstone house, in which
the Yorktown campaign was planned,
AID in which the American and British
commander arranged for the final evac-
nation of American soil by the British,
and opposite which the British sloop OF
war fred the first salute ever given
by Great Britain to America. June 18th
was chosen for the celebration OF the
laying of the base stone, because II Is
the anniversary OF the date when the
Stars and Stripes were first selected as
the official standard VI the United
States.

A FLAG UONrENrION

Newark, n. J., has flag contention
on hand between the German Mayor
and an Irish Alderman and Chairman Of
the Public Buildings Committee.
Mayor LEBKNECHEE declares that so
long as be continues in Office no other
coIors than the Stars and Stripes shall
be allowed to float from the flag staff OF
the City Hall, while Alderman HARRI-
GAN, with equal posiuveness, asserts
that so long as he is a member of the
Public Buildings Committee there shall
be no such discrimination, but that any
dag, no matter what, may be hoisted
over the City Hall by American orgaui-
zations Of foreign birth when they ceIe-
brate their national festivals.
The popular sympathy is probably
with the mayor, but it is likely the
buildings committee will over-rule his
veto and settle the matter by decorating
with the fags OF all nations including
the emerald emblem dear to true Irish
hearts.
This flag question is an interesting
one, aud this we believe is the first
time it has been left to foreign arbitra-
ton, so TO speak.
Wheeling register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1878-1935, 1894-06-15

a similar sort OF constitutional closure.
The provision authorizing the President
to veto any specification of an appropri-
ton bill is worthy Of American adoption.
We are not so sure, however, that the
property qualification of $4,000 required
Of electors OF Senators is in the mind of
sound public policy.
That the freedom of speech and the
press should be so far curtailed as to in
hibit any advocacy OF monarchial re-
storation is a matter Of course, as also
the exclusion of all Asiatics from the
elective franchise.
But by far the most suggestive pro-
vision of the Hawaiian constitution is
that which authorizes the President
and Senate to negotiate treaties Of COM
mercial and political union with the
United States-an authority which at no
distant day in the future, it may be,
will be exercised in the direction Of an
nexatlon and the contamination OF the
original scheme to this end.

Wheeling Is very proud Of her fire de-

The Allowance for the Fire Department
Not SufIicient-The Foolishness OF Put
thug Down. Four Inch Water Mains.
The IRE OF Wednesday afternoon, at
the State Fair Grounds, demonstrated
two things very fully.
One was that the laying Of four-inch
water pipe in a city is somewhat worse
than foolishress. The other was that
the fra department is dangerously short
OF hose.
The four.inch pipe on South Front
strest-too small for any practical, use
in case of fire at best-is apparently
half-full Of rust and mud, it being a
dead end" and when an engine was
put on it Wednesday, the pumps elected
about equal parts of air, mud and water.
Later, when q second engine was put
on the pipe further up street, the hrst
engine could get no water al all. Had
the usual south wind been blowing,
nothing would have saved stone
town" from being swept clean. The
sooner the pipe on South Front street,
and in some other localities in the city,
is taken up aud replaced by larger
one, the better IL will be for property
owners.
The entire department is short OF
hose, there not being sufficient supply
in anv house in the city. Purchases
during recent years have been alto
gether too small, and now the city needs
four or five thousand feet Chief Haaly
recommended the purchase Of four
thousand feet. This was cut by the
Fire Committee to two thousand feet,
and the Finance Committee again cut it
TO twelve hundred feet That means
five sections to each house-a ridlcu-
lous amount.
Fire hose only costs eighty cents q
foot, while houses are quite costly.

rELEPHoNE OHARGEs-

New York's new system OF telephone
charges is likely to be extended in time
to all parts Of the country. OF course,
constant users Of the telephone, either
at their places Of business or homes,
will prefer the present method OF pay
ing a fixed sum with the privilege Of
using as often as they desire. But such
payment is based on the presumption Of
fairly frequent usage, and, as a
writer points out, there are many per-
sons who would like to have a telephone
for occasional use, but who do not care
to pay, and do not feel that they should
be called upon to pay, such large fixed
amount when they may not use a tele-
phone oiteuer than once a day or may
be once or twice a week.
Such a class Of usage requires the
same amount OF wire and number OF
poles, and the same central station
plant, but il does not require the en-
ployment Of 50 many operatives at
central station. The plan in New
York is to reduce the rate Of toll about
one-third to those subscribers who will
agree TO use the telephone for out
ward messages no more than one thou
sand times a year, and TO pay from .
m IN cantS a MASSAGE for each outward
use in excess Of this ], 900 messages.
Ii is more than likely that if this
method were generally introduced it
would lead TO a great increase in the
number OF telephones in use.

CHICAGO, ILL, June 14.-E :. Dill
lon a few days ago secured his dis
charge a. Jefferson Barracks, st. LOnis,
aud started for his home in Ohio. To-
day he found himself ia the Grand Cen
trial depot with a few hours to spare.
Two strangers made themselves agree
able to him and offered him a drink
ont OF a bottle they had with
them. Dillon took a few swallows
and didn't know anything more until
an officer raped him to consciousness
with few taps of his "billy." With
the officers assistance he was able to
reach the armory station, where little
treatment and rest restored him. Dill
lon could not remember enough about
the men TO help the police, and he was
hurried over to the Lake Shore depot TO
take his train for Bellaire, Ohio.
