BIG LICENSE BOW.

The Board of Aldermen meets this evening
for the specific purpose of granting liquor
licenses. About five hundred in all will be
granted. The Excise Committee will prob
ably report that it is inadvisable to renew
the licenses of the J. I. c., the Washington
Garden and Tivoi Theatre. If such re-
port is made there is likely to be the Iiveliest
kind Of row as it was reported at City Hall
this morning that the proprietors had en-
gagged counsel to appear before the board and
extol the merits of their respective places,
and to show the actual necessity of their
maintenance for the welfare of the pub
lie and amusement of certain classes of
people.
AS the Board is constituted at present, any
report made by the Excise Committee will
be adopted. Alderman Dusenbery favors
reporting the licenses which are not to be re-
newed at a special meeting.
An opportunity will again be given the
public tonight to present remonstrances
against the granting of a license to an sa-
loon which is Objectionable,

EXPERIMENTS ON IDIOT CHILDREN

1t is of interest to note the results of re
cent experiments made by surgeons in the
curing of idiocy in children. Like many
other things new in surgery and medicine,
these experiments originated in Paris The
idea was conceived that idioey frequently
was caused, where no congenial causes were
apparent, by the premature union Of the
skull in infants. Acting on this assumption,
the French surgeons removed portion of
the ,bony covering OF the skull on several
patients, the idea being that the brain had
not had room to expand commensurate with
the growth of the child The result in
many instances proved the correctness of
the theory. In some cases the results were
remarkable. In one case an idiot girl of
eight y ears began 20 SLOW signs Of recover
ing intelligence the .yee,y day after the
operation was performed. Louis Globe

"The bride looked very well in travelling
dress, but all eyes were centered on the
groom. He wore a dark suit that fitted per-
fectly his manly form, a large bouquet de-
corated his coat lapel, and In his daintily-
gloved hand he carried bouquet of Ameri-
can beauties. His hair was cut close, and a
delicate odor of barber's oil hoated down the
aisles as he passed. The young people will
miss him now that he is married. He is
loved by all for his many accomplishments,
his tender graces and his winning ways. The

SOME SHIP HIT AN ICEBERG.

NEW YORK, July 2, 1S94.-Captain Magin
of the Hamburg American Packet Com
panys steamship Moravia, which arrived
this morning, reports that at seven o'clock
last Friday morning, while in the vicinity of
the banks, large iceberg was sighted and
that shortly afterwards the Moravia ran
into lot of wreckage of a vessel. The fog
had been continuous, and Captain Magin's
theory is, that some vessel collided with the
mass of ice either during the night or when
the weather was thick. There were unmis-
taxable evidences about that some vessel,
presumably sailing ship, had gone down.

against your own real welfare It is also
blow at the security, peace and rights of mil
lions of people who never harmed you or
your associates
Ny duty to the Constitution and the laws
forblds me to sustain a resolution to legalize
lawlessness The same duty rests upon your
self and your associates
The power to regulate commerce among
the several States is vested by the Constitu-
tion in Congress. Your associates have
ursurped that power by force at Hammond
and other places and have destroyed COM
merce between the States in these particular
instances. You are rapidly approaching the
overt act OF levying war against the United
States, and you will find the definition of
that act in the Constitution. | trust that
wiser thoughts will regain control You
might as well ask me to vote to dissolve this
Government. c. K. DAVIS.

N. Arthur Of the Brotherhood of Locomo-

action of the Illinois Central engineers in
joining the army of strikers had been caused
by any action taken by the Brotherhood.
NO" replied Mr. Arthur, If the angin-

before the Brotherhood, and strikes by
the Brotherhood are not ordered hastily.

ance the matter is thoroughly discussed
and then two-third's vote of all the mem
bers of Brotherhood employed by
the system where the grievance arises

chief, who must approve the action of the
men before the strike can be declared
legal one"
"Do you anticipate that the Brotherhood
will be drawn into the big strike~
mot as a brotherhood. There may
be Brotherhood engineers to the
number of thousands go out, but if
they do, they do SO as individuals. You see
the Brotherhood has no grievance against
any of the roads whatever, and no action can
be taken py its members in body except in
the manner in which have explained.
When asked what his opinion of the
American Railway Union was, and what he
thought of its chances of success, Mr. Arthur

who were employed on the six vessels in the
Navy Yard were discharged this morning
in obedience to an order by Secretary of the
Navy Herbert The vessels are nearly com
pleted, but work had to be stopped because
the appropriation that Congress made for
the building has given out. The probability
of discharge is also hanging over 500 other
men who are drawing pay out of another
appropriation Unless Congress supple
ments that appropriation in thirty days
these 500 men too will have to go out.
