has engagements IN the principal cities

Work began to-day on the trenches
for the extension of the city water
works. Pipe laying will commence at
once and will be completed as soon as
possiable. The new line will start at
the tank on upper Broadway, going
east one block, south one block thence
east one block and ne.half block north
to the city lots where stand pipe will
be erected in the spring. The action
of the council in arranging for this
work deserves commentator. The old
wooden tank has served its time, and
as it is leaky and poorly located, a
stand pipe that will furnish water
power at amy part of town will be a
great improvement.

At the headquarters Of the Typographical

action of Staff Captain Milsaps, who dis
charged the two soldier typesetters because
they asked Cen. Booth to order the War

On the other hand, Staff Captain Milsaps
is equally obdurate. He declares he is the

A Mngnetic Storm.

A magnetic storm centered over WASH
ington last night, deranging the telephone
service of the city. The connection between
these electrical phenomena and the weather
has not been established. Early in the
evening there was a display of aurora bo-
reals, but the sight OF this electric light
of the north was due to the clearness of the
atmosphere The relation which exists, IL
there be such, between these displays and
storms cannot be fixed. One theory is that
they presage cold waves, but this theory
falls when 1t is known the displays are OBJ
served by reason Of clear atmosphere,
and that this condition of the atmosphere
does not ordinarily precede cold wave. AI-
rora borean are concomitant with solar ac-
ton, and at o'clock this morning eight
large spots were visible on the surface OF
the sun. peculiar way with the aurora is
that 1t blazes, as 1t were, in cycles; that
is, it reaches its maximum of intensity once
in each fifty-six years. Its next maximum
of brilliancy is due early in the next CEN

LONDON. February 27.-The Telegraph
has a two-column dispatch from a reporter
who was sent by it to investigate the Ar
menian outrages. The dispatch describes
tho attempts on the part of the Turks to
destroy the proofs of the outrages. and
especially to obliterate the telltale pit in
which hundreds OF mutilated bodies were
piled-heads, arms, hands. legs and trunks
mingling in one fostering mass. Barrels Of
petroleum, that were originally intended to
be used in burning villages, were poured
into the pit and set on fire. The flames
failed to consume the mass, and a hill
stream was then damned and diverted from
its course, but even this failed to wash
away the horrid evidence. Now the re-
mains are being removed piecemeal. The
details Of this massacre are sickening and
most fiendish. The Bulgarian atrocities ap-
pear mild in comparison. The fugitives
were pursued and butchered. Some, how
ever, escaped and went to testify before
the commission. They were seized and i'm
prisoned on various pretexts. Spies and
policemen stalked the highways and
bounced upon any Armenian who was sus-
pected of an intention to testify.

The Difference Between the Officers
and Men of u Railroad.
The differences between the officers and
employees of the Southern Railway Company
have not been settled. A reporter for The
Star was told this forenoon that the end
of the controversy is not in sight Some of
the representatives of the employees main
tain that the demand for a general increase
of pay has not been abandoned. 1t is given
out that the only points of difference now
under advisement by the conference are
those affecting the application of that gen.
eral schedule which has been substituted
for the several schedules hitherto observed
on the various parts of the Southern sys-
tenn Although the federated board repre-
senting the employees and the unions has
plenary powers, yet the decision will prob

fication. A conclusion is not expected to-
