NO POWER TO GRANT PRIVILEGE.

City Solicitor Gives Opinion on the
Matter OF the WILMINGTON City Railway
Company Tearing Up Tracks on spruce
Street.
At the meeting Of the Board Of Street
Commissioners last night Hubert Cas-
sley made an application for the privilege
of building a siding from the B. q o.
railroad across the intersection Of Tnir
tesnth and Union streets Mr. Cassidy
stated that parties wish to locate in that
vicinity provided they can get railroad
facilities. The matter was laid over
until Mr.. Cassidy can assure the direc
tors that the privilege Is not intended
for speculation
City Solicitor Harman was present and
rendered an opinion in regard to the
application which Willard Sauls bury,
representing the Wilmington City Rail-
way Company, made of the department
some time ago. The application called
for the privilege Of tearing up the tracks
on Spruce street, and that permi sslon be
granted to relay them at any time In the
future, when the company would pave
two feet on either side Of the track
Mr. Harmsp's opinion was to the effect
that the commission has no power to
enJef lnbO any bucn agreements he sal1
that the Wilmington City Railway, as
any other corporation gets what It has
for nothing. While It no doubt is OF
great advantage to the people it has no
right to usurp the exclusive right of that
street, whether It's tracks be down or not
The railway company, he said, can
violate its contract as often as it wishes
without dlctAtion from the city, the
state being the proper dictator and alone
having authority TO Rnnul the charter
The city, however, can compel the rail
way to pave between its tracks
Sewer permits were granted to John
Doherty, Edward Johnson, Mary G

Ambassador BAyard was interviewed
to-day respecting the report circulated
In the United States that he had been
instructed by Secretary Olney to submit
an ultlmatum to Great Bdtsin on the
Venezuelan question, In the form Of a
dispatch, the substance Of which was
said TO be that the United States will
never consent TO British occupation Of
the disputed territory In Venezula unless
that nations right to it Is h,st
determined by arbitration.
Mr.. Bayard rldiculei the statement OF
an ultlmRtum having been drawn up by
the United States. a said he could not
seriously discuss matter. The fact,
however, remained hat since the dlplo
matte break between Great Britsln and
Venezuela some years ago. the United
States had been anxious to bring about
friendly settlen ent OF the question. and
bad rendered It's good offices TO Great
Britain with this object In view, and had
repeatedly ondeavored to find means for
It's satisfactory solution The same
situation continued, and the longer the
matter was allowed to drift, the more
anxious would the United States become
to see II defnitely settled. That was al
Mr. Bayard could say about the matter.
TIE Foreign Office officials were ques
toned to-day as to the truth OF a report
that an armed British force Is marching
through Brazilian territory, and that its
objective p1iut is that part Of Venezuela
which is claimed by the British govern
mept. They said there was no truth In
theStory, that there Is no British force
there aud that there would be no object
in marching through that portion OF
Brazil, even n British force had been

variety.
So far the Anconas are practically I'M
known in this country, but we will
doubtless have them in time. They are
described as notified throughout in
plumage and of a neat and attractive
appearance. They resemble the Min
orcas in many respects, but are gener-
ally rather smaller. They are great
layers and non-sitters. The eggs are
white shelled and of good quality. They
are of rather small size when from pull
cts, but this defect is corrected the next
season. The breed is generally con
sidered to result from the crossing of
black and white Minorcas. but many be-
lievc that they are closely related to the
Leghorns instead. This theory would
seem to find confirmation in the habits
of the birds, which possess the activity
and foraging qualities of the Leghorns
They also mature early and are small
