Adelaide Avenue Layout Commission.
ers Failed to Notify Consolidated.

The commissioners appointed on the
layout of Adelaide avenue from Elm
wood avenue to point near the Gorham
Mandatory made an unfortunate blum
der which the City Council have
been called upon to rectify. They failed
Hartford Railroad Company, one of tue
principal abutting owners, the plan of the
layout including the building of wood
en- bridge over their tracks for which an
appropriation OF $4,000 had been made.
One Of the piers upon which the
structure was intended to be built
is located on the land OF the corporation
which promptly protested against the act
OF trespass. The company. jnasmuch as
they would he called upon to maintain the
bridge, desired an iron structure, and the
city accordingly received notification of
the illegality of their proceeding.
Accordingly the City Council is
compelled to rescind its action, and In
the meantime operations must cease until
authority is obtained to proceed in ac-
cordance with the method prescribed by
ordinance. Settlements have been made
with abutting owners and the line of the
street defined and built up TO the bridge.
The City Council must appoint another
commissioner, establish another layout
and make terms With the railroad corpor-
alton before the improvement can be COM
Melted.

TWO KINDS.

The grouty man went into a restaurant
and ordered a steak which didn't suit him
so he called the waiter back and snapped
out briefly as follows: ADO you think
that am going TO pay for such stuff as
that apology for piece of meat. 1t takes
a smarter man than you are
or anyone else in this one-horse
establishment TO impose on one. Now
you won't get cent for that gristle and
want something else right of. What makes
this napkin so damp? That coffee isn't fit
20 drink" The waiter stated the case TO
the proprietor who didn't see what no
could do about IL and the man who
wouldn't pay paid and stalked out while
the other customers laughed at him.
Just nineteen minutes later the good
natured man sauntered In and got steak
off the Same cut and IL didn't suit him, SO
he called the waiter back and spoke
briefly as follows: Look here, old man,
don't want to kick, but this steak isn't
really all that IL ought 10 be and 1
can't eat gristle TO save my life. Pm not
blaming you at ali; it's the butchers
fault or the cooks fault, and nine times
out OF ten a man gets a mighty good
steak in here. Yes. All right ~
you can change IL without any
trouble I guess I'll try a nice omelette
with cheese for breakfast; this coffee Is
ali right" And the good -naturcd man
got his omelette and cheese, only had TO
pay for one order and the waiter brushed
his hat for him before he reached the
tooth pick jar on the cashiers desk.

WHY WAS 1T OMITTED Z
Is There a Motive in the Failure
to Have Weston's Report Printed?

There is growing dissatisfaction
among the member of the Common Coun-
Gil at the action whereby the report OF
Engineer Weston upon the filtration sys-
tenn was not ordered TO be incorporated in
the document which is TO contain the
report OF the city engineer and the special
committee. The reasons for its rejection
are claimed to be based upon the item of
cost and supposed advocacy OF the
mechanical system which the City
Council has temporarily sban-
doned. IL is claimed, however. by
these who have had access TO the report
that the cost Of the printing would not
exceed 900 TO 500. aud that instead OF
presenting an argument confined to the
illustration OF he superiority of the me-
chanical system. 1t contains a series of
tabulsted statistics applied to both sys-
TENS and OF incslcuable value in ar
irving at a thorough and comprehensive
knowledge OF the two systems and all the
dcteils 'of utility, cost and maintenance
under local conditions.

tation a. an authority upon filtra-
tion, and, in fsetS upon All

The WEAvERS APPEAL.
By The Associated Press.

New BEDFORD, Aug. 27.-The Cotton
Weavers' Union has today issued the fol-
lowing appeal:
To the People of the New England States:
ave. the cotton operatives of New Bed
ford are engaged in great struggle with
our employers, the mill corporations.
This conflict is not of our seeking.
1t has been forced upon US by
the most cruel and unjust action OF our
employers. One year ago our wages were
reduced 10 TO 20 per cent. This we quietly
accepted. During the present year this
reduction has been largely increased
in the weave departments by the
great lengthening of cuts without
extra pay, and changing the styles OF
cloth. BY this unjust means some of the
corporations have further reduced the
weayers' wages 10 TO % per cent.
''To protect the operative from this form
OF extortion the legislature OF Massachu-
sets passed law directing the manufac-
turcrs to state TO the wcavers the length
of cuts, ETC., and price for weaving the
same. The manufacturers are now eyading
this just law, treat it with contempt and
announce further reduction i'm our
wages. Many of the operatives were al
ready on the verge of starvation.
"These corporations which are treating
the operatives with such scorn and con-
tempt are nearly all paying their usual
dividends, and the stockholders have
scarcely suffered at all. The operators OF
New Bedford have, therefore, struck
work against this cruel and needless re-
duction in wages aud against the defiance
OF law by the manufacturers.
They appeal most earnestly for support
from all the New England States to help
them in this struggle against oppression
and wrong.
"All money can be fcrSarded to Mathew
Hart, Box 543, New Bedford, Mass, or to
the regularly appointed collectors, having
credentials, sent out by the union. All
contributions received will be acknowl-
edged through the press"
Copies OF this appeal, presented both in
English and French, will DC printed i'm
circular form and sent to the various
labor centers and other cities of New
England.
Twenty collectors have started today to
Rhode Island and Connecticut.
The strikers were very quiet yesterday.
Many Of them took advantage OF the plea

matters involved in the science Of
OF the information in his report migkt
properly be estimated at thousands OF
dollars in determining for the representa-
tives of the taxpayers which system
should be introduced, which should cor-
bine the requisite elements of economy
and adaptability.
The statement is made by one OF this
most influential members of the Common
Council that the advocates of the natural
system do not dare to have the reporh
made public, as it is calculated to desrroy
many of the props by which they have
elevated the gravity system to its tempo
rary distinction. He further states thai
since the meeting OF the Council, certain
members who voted in opposition to tina
tabling OF the report and the resolution
have expressed their determination to iu-
vestigate the subject more thoroughly
and to vote to indefinitely postpone the
matter rather than TO be instru-
mental in the establishment of q
ystem which has not yet passed the ex-
perimental stage and the cost of which ID

conjectural rather than based upon the
estimate OF experienced aud practical
judgment. While it may be claimed thas
the city Council has rejected the mechan-
ical system it is certainly not committed
to the natural system. In fact, the vote
in the Board of Aldermen was in no sense
a majority decision, and the tabiing Of the
report in the Council was accomplished
by vote which lacked only
three Of majority. There were
81 members present, IS voting in the sfiir-
native, 10 in the negative, four refrained
from voting and there were eight sbsen-
tees, The prediction by the infiuencial
members that there was Q prospect Of
indefinite postponement at the next meet
ing involved the vote Of 21 members, and
taking the vote at the last meeting, IL
would seem that the prophecy could be
quite easily verified.

TORACE NO MORE
Prince of Wales Decides to
Lay Up the Britannia Now.
The Sad Fatality Of Saturday is the
Cause of this Determination.
By 7ne Associated Press.


WEYMOUTH, Aug. 27.--Captain Carter,
commander OF the Britannia, has received
telegraphic message from her owner,
the Prince of Wales, instructing him not
to race the Britannia again this season in
any of the regattas.
The action of the Prince of Wales is due
to the accident by which on Saturday last
Chief Officer Simons and Caterer Roper Of
the Britannia, and Engineer Brookman of
the steam yacht Tabura, were drowned.
AS already cabled, Chief Officer Simons
and his companions left the Prince Of
Wales cutter for the shore on
Saturday in a dingy. A heavy gale was
blowing and the men had considerable
difficulty in handling the boat. They
tried to put back, but during q
rain squall the dingy was lost
sight of, and yesterday pprning she
was found floating bottom upward. AS
nothing has since been heard of the
three men it is concluded that they
were drowned.
The Prince OF Wales in his telegram to
Capt. Carter says that unless Vigilant in
sists upon racing for the Cape May Cup,
Britannia is to lay up for the winter.

NO LAKES AT The PARK.
Some of its Beauties That Have not
Been In Evidence This Year.

The park commj ssioners are unhappy.
They have been fondly anticipating that
the dredging of lake No. ] at Roger Will
liam's Park would be completed accord
ing to contract by September /, so that
the water could be turned into
the three lakes and the city
could obtain some revenue from thc boats
and launches which have been stored in
the houses all summer. The average
monthly revenue has been something like
$1,000, but not this year. Eyerson q Lid
die were given the contract, which called
for the removal OF about four thousand,
five hundred yards of mud and pratt
At the very outset delay was caused by
the non-arr:val of dump cars, and opera
tions were not commenced until last
week. The plan OF excavation was
changed somewhat by dredging to the
depth of 2h feet and then filling with
sand and gravel, whereby solid and
substantial bed will be secured.
The work is progressing slowly and it
is not believed that it can be completed
before October /. There might be few
Indian summer days which would tempt
the youth to indulge in rowing, s~t vir-
tually the seasons income from
the lakes will have been lost. 1t is
claimed that the engineering depart
ment has been delinquent whereby the
contractors have been prevented from
pushing operations, and that the City
Council are responsible for failure to
make an appropriation until the
season was well advanced. The
commissioners are inclined TO the
opinion that there should be amend
ments to the ordinances whereby they
may be clothed with additional powers
and have the services or an engineer ex-
clusively at their disposal to avoid a rep
etition of the experiences of the past
season.

AT new BEDFORD
Only the Rowland Mills at
Work on the Old Wages.
Weavers Issue Lengthy Appeal For
Aid Today-0ther Labor Matters.

NEW BEDFORD, Aug. 27.-A crowd of
5000 operatives in holiday attire gathered
near the gates OF the Bristol mill at
the north end between six and
seven o'clock this morning in
anticipation that the mill would start up
under the reduction. Many were present
to see the fun they said, but there was
none, as Superintendent Diman made no
attemps TO start the machinery. Had he
done SO, however, with the aid Of nom
union men, there is no telling what would
have happened, judging by the express
sions heard in the throng. Soon after
$50, the hour for starting,
large mass meeting of weavers was held
near by, addressed by Secretary
Matthew Hart and Vice President Metcalf
of the union. Mr.. Hart urged the weavers
to hold out and resist any such
attempts as it was previously thought the
Bristol would make, "For their aim is to
build a new mill out of your hard earned
wages" He said the Bristol has orders
enough to keep the mill rushed till the
middle of January.
The three mills Of the Rowland system,
the Rowland, Rotch, and New Bedford
Manufacturing Company's factories,
started up on the old basis of pay
with full complement of help this
morning. There was no demonstration,
at Mr.. Howland's request.
II is unoerstood thai the management
of the Bennett and Columbia Yarn Mills
Zone system, have summoned the spin
ners' leaders for conference as to the re-
sumption of work tomorrow morning.
These mills are said to have plenty of
orders.
There is no change at the other corpo-
rations.
The Wamsutta corporation this fore
noon paid off the weavers for the cloth
they left on their looms.
AS result of the conference the man
agcmcnt agreed to start up the Bennett
and Columbia mills Wednesday morning
at the old schedule.
