A Connecticut Mans Friends Alarmed
by His Disappearance.
Friends and business connections in this
city of R. Z. Able of Enfield, Conn.,, are
considerably alarmed over the fact that he
has been missing since Wednesday of last
week. He arrived here last Tuesday from
Williamsburg, Mass, where he had been to
order shipment of 800 barrels of apples
fer a Washington firm, and was seen on
that and on the following day. Having
some business in Alexandria, Va, and sup
posing he had gone there, search was in
stituted, but no trace Of him was found.
He is about fifty years old, wears a mus
tache and full chin beard is five feet eight
inches in height, and Is slightly deaf 1t is
feared that his mind is temporarily af-
fected from a recent attack of the grip.
The disappearance Of Mr.. r. E. Able
was reported to the police several days
ago, as stated in The Star. When he came
here last Tuesday he stopped over night
at the fremont House. The next day he
charged his quarters to the Indiana House
At this pls ce he borrowed a satchel from
one of the boarders, saying he wanted to
bring some small articles from the hotel in
t. He went out and did not return.
After his disappearance was reported it
was ascertained that two car loads of ap-
pies consigned to him had reached the de-
pot here, and they are fast decaying.

CHARGES AGAINST MIR. MUNRoE.
Inspector Brady Reports ON the
EederntiNn'A Alterations.

Federntinn's- Allegations.
Building inspector Brady today submitted
to the Commissioners his report of the an
vestigation which has been made by him
into the charges of the Federation of Labor
against Contractor Charles r. Munroe, of
gross violation of the contract and specifi-
cations for the construction of the new
school building on E street between 18th
and 14th streets southeast. The report,
which is in the hands of Commissioner
Truesdell, has not been read yet, and under
the new order of the Commissioners any
facts concerning it will not be made public
until the board SO desires.
The charges were presented on March l,
and alleged that the contract and speciiica-
tons for the construction of the building
have been violated in workmanship and
material. the chief defect being, it was
claimed, that the walls were built hollow
to an extent that admits the hand of a
man between the bricks.
MIR. Brady has made a full and complete
investigation of the matter, and in his re-
port, it is understood. sets forth that the
greater number of charges. including those
that the brickwork has been executed in the
worst possible manner, the walls being
neither plumb, straight or level; that sal
mon brick have been used in the walls
above the grade line; that the joints in the
select brick work are of extra thickness
and out of plumb. and that the joists are
supply, DIRK cage anu knotty anu ieVeicu up
to the walls with from two to three courses
of dry brick and upon wooden blocks, are
without foundation.
1t has not yet been determined whether
the allegation of the Federation that the
walls are hollow is true or false, as they
have not been tapped. Superintendent Cox,
who is supposed to have witnessed the lay
ing of every brick on the building, declares
that the walls are not hollow and Building
Inspector Brady apparently is willing to
abide by that decision, for in the report
submitted to the Commissioners, so far as
can be learned. he states that ii the Fed
Grafton of Labor will file a bond, pledging
itseil TO reimburse the contractor for all
damage resulting from tapping the walls.
If they are found to be solid and in accord
ance with the specification, such action will
be taken at any and all spots the Fedora
ton may point out to be examined

STREETS, SEWERS AND WATER.
Interesting Data In a Report Drawn
for the Senate.

Interesting Data In a Report Drawn
for the Senate.
In compliance with a Senate resolution
of February % last, the Commissioners
have had prepared considerable interest
ing data relating to the paving of streets,
the laying of sewer and water mains, ETC.,
in the limits Of Washington and George
town.
Assessor Trimble reports that the as
sessed value Of private property is s23.-
524, S5S, while the estimated value of gov
ernment property is $1O.256.266.
A list of streets showing the number of
linear feet of each wholly OF partially sup
piled with sewer facilities has been pre-
pared by Capt. Beach. There are TO-, 800
feet OF unsewered streets running east and
west and 72,25O feet partially severed. OF
streets running north and south, including
Georgetown. there are unsewered los, $50
feet, and partially severed 81 ,450 feet. In
Georgetown there are $500 feet of unsew-
$500 feet partially severed running in the
same direction. The total estimated cost
of building sewers where they are lacking
Is 81 DOS, $50. Capt. Beach states that there
city in such condition that they must be
replaced in order to provide the city with
proper sewerage facilities. There are about
fifty miles of such sewers.
Capt. Burr has submitted list of streets
and avenues partially or wholly without
water mains, together with the estimated
cost of laying mains. The list includes the
number of fire hydrants required and the
cost of their erection. According to Capt
Burr, in order to properly supply the city
with needed water mains, there are re-
quired 4O4, $50 feet of six-inch pipe at 80
cents per foot, or 1854 1927 1850 feet of
twelve-inch pipe at $3.50 per foot. or s24.-
S25, and 1856 fire hydrants at $50 each, or
S15,725, a total of $40, 612.

rom the New York World.

From the New York World.
The method by which the Vanderbilt d.
vorce was arranged is n scandal to our
Jurisprudence. Worse than that, 1t is m
| influence for the degradation of public
morals and the breaking down of the popu-
lar sense of right and wrong.
Practically Mr.. and Airs. Vanderbilt d.
vorced themselves. There was no hearing
before a court. The parties did not appear
before the tribunal. There was no public
proof Of infidelity on either side to serve as
a punishment to the guilty party or as a
deterrent influence in the case of others.
The whole matter was arranged by dicker.
The criy function of the court was to give
legal effect to the terms of the bargain
Is it, then, the privilege Of the rich to an
null their marriages at pleasure by mutual
agreement? The law, rigidly enforced
against all ordinary citizens, prescribes
that collision between husband and wife
shall be an effectual and peremptory bar
to divorce. Yet this rich man and woman
have sent their lawyers into court with a
collusive agreement already made; the
court has suppressed the evidence agreed
to be presented, by sending the case TO a
referee instead of hearing 1t in open ses--
sion; the referee has made a report in ac-
cordance with the terms of the decker; the
court has affirmed it, ordering the papers
sealed so that there may be no scandal
which means simply that the guilty party
shall be spared all social shame and in
cenvenience-and the terms of the collusive
agreement have been embodied in a decree
which authorizes one party to marry again
at pleasure, and imposes upon the other a
prohibition of marriage, which is as enef-
fectual as bull against a comet.
Unless we accept the unclean doctrine of
free love, marriage and divorce are not in
any sense private matters. The family re-
lation lies at the very foundation of society.
Divorce equally with marriage is matter
Of public concern, and should be decreed
only after public hearing and public proof
of statutory cause.
A case of this kind sets an example of
the most pernicious character imaginable.
1t means to the majority that there is one
law for the rich ana another for the rest
of us. 1t means that If you have money
enough your marriage vows may count for
nothing. 1t means that your misconduct
will be carefully guarded against exposure
by all the authority the courts possess. 1t
means that while collusive divorce pro-
ceedings are peremptorily thrown our of
court in the case of ordinary persons a
mulu-millionaire and his wife may arrange
such a proceeding in full assurance that it
viii! be ratified by the courts, and that all
the scandalous details will be securely hid
den beneath the sacred seal of the tribunal

was not so great. The hotels were suffer-
ing most, as the usual visitors from the
north had been kept away by rumors of
war Then, again, merchants in the United
states who usually consign goods freely to
interior points in Cuba were unwilling to
take the risk.
Betrnycr of the Cause.
The Cubans here, and the insurgcnt rarty
generally. are greatly incensed at Julio
Sanguiliy, the former Cuban leader now
confined in the Cabanas, in Havana. They
assert, with much evidence that he has
betrayed the movement. According to
many accounts he was paid by the Spanish
government not only to betray the upris-
ing, but to betray Manuel Garcia as well.
For the betrayal of the latter he Is said
to have been paid $500.
The story is going all over Cuba that
Sanguilly lured him to his death by means
of a letter. in which lie advised a raid on
Fraguelo, where the ambuscade was form
ed.
How long ago was this movement Of the
Cubans planned? One year, or two at the
outside. However long it may have been,
S9nguilly was certainly on the inside of the
scheme. Soon after it was formed he took
out the papers of an American citizen.
According to the best Information the re-
volt was to take place on the first carnival
day, February %. Everybody knows how
thoroughly prepared the government was
against the move. The Cubans say they
have indisputable evidence that Sanguilly
betrayed them. At any rate, there is very
little doubt that he will soon be set free.
The American consul is even now making
strenuous efforts to have him released.
had long talk with a prominent citi-
zen of Havana few days ago. in which
he expressed some very decided opinions.
Cuba will never be free" said he, until
the resident Spaniards themselves take up
arms against oppression. They are coming
to 1t slowly and surely. The majority Of
Cubans do not complain, because they are
well fixed financially"

The Value of Light.

From the Popular Medical Monthly.
A sunbeam is small thing. yet 1t has
rower to fade the carpets and curtains, to
rot the blinds, and for this reason some
folks carefully exclude the sunshine What
is the result? The family is always ailing,
the young girls have a waxen, white skin
and a weary, pinched expression of coun-
tenance Their appetites fail. they fall into
such bad state of health that the doctor
is called in. In olden days he would have
shaken his head, perhaps, and friends
would have whispered that dreaded word
"decline!" Nowadays he notes the pale
gums and waxen skin and says "anaemia;"
prescribes iron and milk, fresh air and
exercise and often a change. If he knows
nothing about the darkened rooms he will
be puzzled as to why no permanent i'm
provement manifests itself, and, possibly,
the patient will seek other advice

THE SMALLPOX HOSPITAL.

THE SMALLfOA f1OSfI1AAs
The Appropriation Not Considered
Sufficient for the Purpose.
The Commissioners are in somewhat Of
quandary regarding the new smallpox hos
pital to be erected on reservation ID, east
of the Jail. For the erection Of the hos
pital, together with disinfecting plant
and a high masonry wall around the place.
Congress appropriated $4,000, and the
money is now available. The Commission
ers, however, do not see their way clear to
accomplish the great things provided for
with the small amount of money at their
command, and therein lies the difficulty.
The Senate suggested 100000 as the
proper amount for fitting up the hospital,
but in conference that sum was cut down
to the figure named in the foregoing, and
Commissioner Truesdell stated to a Star
reporter this afternoon that after building
the wall of masonry not a very lavish sum
will remain to cover the balance of the
work. Nevertheless, within very short
time the Commissioners will order the
preparation of plans for such a hospital
building they deem proper and will
erect as much of it as the money in hand
will permit This may only be one ward,
but such Is the action to be taken, and
at the next session Congress is to be i'm
portuned for the wherewithal to complete
the structure. No provision was made for
physicians, nurses and other employees for
the hospital, and that Is another import
ant matter to be brought to the attention
of the next Congress.
