Charges" against Simmons fully looked
into. Then. II he was confirmed 1t would
be a complete yindication. If he were not
confirmed he could go before the people as
a congressional candidate and thus get
their Endorsement in a very practical way.
1t Is said that the Vance fight against Sim
mons will not be taken up and that Sena-
tor Jarvis will support him with all his in
fuence. Simmons, friends, comprising the
vast mass Of the democrats In the state,
have always insisted that the luminosity

The people are very quiet, politically in
this state. This applies with marked force
to the farmers. OF course. nearly every
body talks politics." but there is no ex-
element. The farmers are working very
hard. They have plenty to eat and good
crop prospects and are less hampered by
debt than at any time In twenty years.
There Is no unemployed labor either in the
factories or on the farms. The North Caro-
linian reads Of the "Coxey armies" the

the value of homogeneous population. of a
community mainly agricultural and singu-
larry simple in it's tastes and inclinations.

"A Harrison Price, aged flfty-two years,
second cabin passenger. committed suicide

steamer at Southampton. He was very
quiet and reticent mingling but little with
his fellow passengers. On last Tuesday
morning, the 24th, he not appearing at
breakfast, a steward went to his room, and
on entering found him lying in his berth
dead. his hand tightly grasping revolver
He had shot himself apparently during the
night or early morning hours. The bullet
had entered his mouth, lodging in the brain
The body was buried at sea on the after
noon of the same day.
Price was a native of the United States
and is supposed to have been going to Jer-
sey CITY Heights. He had resided in Eng
land for the last ten years or more.

To Have N street Cleaned.
The attention of the Commissioners has
been called to the filthy condition OF NJ
street between Connecticut avenue and I1th
street and the superintendent of street
cleaning has been ordered to have the same
cleaned.
To Test the building Regulations.
There is to be a test case Involving the
validity of the building regulations. Builder
Frank Harvey recently applied to the build
ing inspector to issue him permit TO con-
struct dwelling in the county. The permit
was refused on the ground that the regula-
tons forbid projections on any suburban
street less than sixty feet in width II is
the regulation OF November 10, 1893 which
operates against the permit. 1t reads:
That no projection other than oriels whose
lowest portion shall be high enough above
the sidewalk to leave at least twelve feet
Roadway shall be allowed on any suburban
street sixty feet and less in width
Mr.. Harvey proposes to test the law to
the fullest extent.
No Special Hack Permit.
The attorney for the District holds in an
opinion to the Commissioners today. that
regulations in regard to hacks should be
general in their character and apnsys to ell
persons in the same occupations, trades or
callings alike. This opinion was the result
of a complaint from the hackmen occupying
the stand at the corner OF 18th and Pennsyi-
vania avenue against the hack or cab which
stands in front of 0gram's drug store. A
special permit was issued for this, but the
attorney has recommended its revocation.
