A BRITISH SHIP THIS TIME.

England and Uncle sam May Have
Common Cause Against Spain.
It is stated by officials that the reported
firing by Spanish gunboat on the British
ship Ethelred. bound from Boston to
Jamaica, If confirmed, will give the United
States and Great Britain a common cause
in demanding explanations and indemnity
from Spain. Official confirmation of the
indignity on the Ethelred has not yet been
received here. either at the State Depa-t-
ment or at the British embassy. 1t is said
that the usual course will be for the COM
foreign office. AS he was bound for
Jamaica, he may first report to the govern
or general Of that British colony. who, in
turn would present the case to the foreign
office.
Great Britain is quick to take cognizance
of any interference with her merchant
marine, and it is not doubted that IL the
facts are as reported the foreign office will
speedily ask of Spain first, an explanation,
and second. compensation. The circum-
the firing on the Alliance. 1t is not yet
clear. however, whether the Ethelred was
On the high seas or within six miles of
Cape Maysi. which is the jurisdictional
limit claimed by Spain. II within the limit
the case may present an interesting COM
parison of the British and American poll
cies on marine Jurisdiction.
In Mr.. Greshams demand on Spain he
took the advanced position that American
vessels on the regular routes could not be
molested. even when within the jurisdfc-
tion of Spanish waters If Great Britain
takes a similar position as to her mer-
chant vessels on the regular routes to
Jamaica it will go far toward the termina-
ton of Spain's claims Of the right of
search and seizure within Cuban waters.

THE GARBAGE CONTRACT
The Commissioners Will Not Take the Pub
lic Into Their Confidence.
Specifications Believed to Have Been
Determined Upon by the Board and
Everything Now Complete.

Some OF these days-maybe during the
present week-the people of the District Of
Columbia will be permitted to know some
thing about the specifications upon which
would-be garbage contractors will be ex-
pected to base their bids. In the District
appropriation act for the fiscal year ending
June 30, 1895. 1t is provided that the Dis
trict Commissioners may. ION and after
the passage of this act enter into contract.
after due advertisement. as required by
law. under such regulations and specifca-
items as they may establish. for the col
lection and removal of garbage and dead
animals, as hereinbefore mentioned, for a
period not exceeding five years. and for
ii.cfnerating, or otherwise disposing of the
same, for gross sum of not exceeding
$4,000 per year for such collection and
disposal"
For more than three hours yesterday
afternoon the Commissioners were in ex-
ecutive session as tc the specifications and
regulations the law permits them to pro-
mulgate, and in this work they were as
sisted by Attorney Thomas and Health Of
fcer Woodward. After the board had
reached it's conclusions, the draft was turn
ed over to the attorney and the health Of
ficer for the purpose Of affording them the
opportunity to make such amendments as
they might deem necessary. A number Of
amendments were made by those officials.
and this morning Health Officer Woodward
returned the decidedly interesting matter
to Commissioner Truesdell, who will pre-
sent the amended specifications and regu-
lations to the board, possibly this after
noon. 1t is not at all probable that the
Commissioners will take exception to any
of the changes that have been made-Com-
missioner Truesdell himself stated to a Star
reporter that everything was practically
complete-but the general public will not be
given any opportunity to criticise or make
suggestions before the regulations are CIV
en- out in company with requests for bids.

NEW YORK, April 3.-Opening prices
were fractionally lower this morning as
the result of moderate selling for London

ing element. The reported decrease Of
$31i,O0O in Rock Islands earnings for the
month of March, followed by a decrease of
100000 in St Paul for the fourth week Of
the same month. had a discouraging effect
on the railway list in general. Such re-
ports as these are likely to displace senti-

The market for sterling and continental
