Macadamizing Material Easy to
 Secure.
It May Be Brought by Rail from the Hassayampa Canyon and
 Cheaply.

The setting of the street crossings has, as far as Washington street is concerned, we'll exhibited the level of the city's present grades as compared with the grades officially established by the city council upon the survey. of City Engineer Sam Davidson. The crossings are placed upon the proper grade, and in nearly every case the improvement is useless, for it is simply the establishment of trench several inches deep across the roadway. The next thing is to bring the streets down to grade, and when that is done, and it wiN be no small task, the next question relates to the improvement of tlhe traffic conditions of the local high ways. On Washington street, the principal thoroughfare. is this need es- pecially plain, but the cost of biitImi- nous rock, the material generally sug- gested, has served to defeat all such projects thus far brought forward. Davidson has an idea this regard, however, that meets favor wherever presented. He believes that the city should purchase stone breaker and install it at one of the rock pits along the line of the Santa Fe. Prescott & Phoenix railway, and thence could readily be brought macadamizing ma terial for the length of Washington street, to begin with.
 The cost of transportation by rail could be made little, if any more, than the usual cost of carriage Of material in carts, for the rock, ready for use, could be placed upon the cars at the quarry, and the cars, on arrival at the Capitol grounds, could be switched upon the line of the Phoenix street l railway and taken to the spot needed, either by trolley ear traction or by the companys' own locomotives. The rails and equipment of the street car line
 are in all respects suitable for such
 use.
 i The pavement thus made would, of course, not be equal to fbitumen, but would cost less than half as much and
 would last for years. It also would
 need not nearly So much sprinklng as the present dirt roads we are pleased | to term streets.
 An interview of 2 Republican re- porter with Chief Engineer Drake of
 the Santa Fe seemed to confirm MT. Davidsor's premises as to suitable
 rock to be found on the line of the
 road. There's just the proper kind of material for the purpose in Has sayampa canyon, below Wickenburg.
 said MT. Drake. Tt is metanorphic
 in character, not soft by any means
 and yet not too hard for the purpose.
 When we were blasting our way a1cng
 the Hassayampa at the place I have in
 mind a ffteen-fo01 hole would break cut tremendous quantity of rock and
 there wouldn't seem to be a piece in
 the lot larger than your fsSS."

A WILLY OLD APACHE.
How EsAiminzin Expressed His ODin-
 ion Of the Military.

Old Eski-1inzin, who died at San Car los lately, was one Of the first of Ghe Apadhes to claim fer himself the title of cizilized. But ne was precious old rascal for all that He had farm down on the San Pedro and cultivated something of ac eXpanse of farming land early in the 'S0's, as we'll as having a good sized band of cattle and of horses. But it was peculiar fact that at his ranch centered many of the trails of hostiles after they had com miJted deviltry and so the cid fellow was finally herded onto the reservation and watched
 It is of Eskiminzin that the fe,- :. ewing ancient tale is told: He was in Tucson one day buying several rifles and a large amount of ammunition which was sold him on the strength of his peaceful proclivities A bystander, however, sauntered up and remarked: Say, Skim, what do you want with all that ammunition. Going to kill scr- diers with it?"
 Just about that time the troops, un- der General 0. B. Wilcox had been catching merry sheol from the Apa,ches and Skim's reply was to the point.
 "No,' he ejaculated 'No need guns to kill soldiers. Use clubsv'

GERMAN COMMENT.
Generally Opposed to the Monroe Doc
 Urine Idea.

BERLIN, Dec. 19.-A representative of the Associated Press has had an in terview of the subject of President Cleveland's message on the Venezuelan question with a high government off, cial. He said: Europe has never acquiesced in the Monroe doctrine President Cleveland's threatened inter ference in a quarrel between two other nations is not seriously interpreted here. The threats will show England the dangers of isolation
 Count Von Kanitz, the Agrarian leader, remarked: "The United States seems to be spelling for fight She might get her hands full.''
 Herr Richter, the Peoples Party leader, said: q suppose it is an elec- tion trick of President Cleveland But it is doubtful if England will back down."
 Herr Von Puttkaemer said: "The whole thing looks like an American practical joke.'
 Herr Von KoeMer, who recently re- signed the portfolio of the Prussian ministry of the interior, said: Ger many does not see any reason for talk ing sides in this question"
 Herr Schlodie, a member of the reichstag, said: Tt is time to bring about an international definition of the quoted Monroe doctrine and the present occasion might accomplish it. :"
 The Berlin Post during course of editorials, said: we must not forget that the presidential election cam paign is near in America. The means resorted to on such occasions cannot Tbe too drastic

LACKLAND-lCLEMISON.
A Quiet Wedding Last Night at the
 Orme Residence.

Last evening at the residence of H. c. Orme, on North Seventh street. Rev. Preston Mckinney added another good deed to his many thus far in the union in matrimo1y of Norman Lack land and Miss Mayme Clemison. Only relatives were present, but the occa- sion was none the less happy one on account of lack of ostentation. The pair will here reside.
 The groom is well known in Phoenix. having for several years served as bailiff of the district court and as an assistant in the postofice. To him on the opening of the Santa Fe mail line fell one of the positions thus opened in the railway mail service. The bride but yesterday arrived from Warrenton. Missouri, and was met at Ash Fork by her fance. Their engagement is understood to have dated back in the days of childhood and the union is the consummation of affection that has endured the test of time.

SENATORIAL ACTION.
Delayed by Populist Senator From
 Nebraska.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-The house Venezuelan resolution was laid before the senate today.
 Senator Morgan moved to refer it to the committee on foreign relations and was supported by Senator Sher- man. Both made speeches supporting the president, but protesting against haste. Senator Sherman also ex- pressed the belief that there would be no war and the matter could be ad- jused peaceably.
 Senator Lodge followed Senator Sherman in a vigorous speech. He said he was not in haste, but he thought time for committee reports should be limited and gave notice of an amendment providing that the com mission should report by April 1. He did not think the Monroe doctrine could be upheld as a proposition of international Jaw, but he believed it should be supported as we supported the declaration of independence be- cause it was our doctrine.
 Senator Voorhees, took the floor in favor of immediate action. Great Britain took tlhree months to say she would not arbitrate.
 Senator Allen, Populist of Nebraska, objected to second reading of the Ibill which would carry it over until to- morrow. In short speech he said he did not expect there would be any war. He said the amendment proposed by Senator Lodge meant there would be more of 8 political war than anything.
 Senator Hawley said it was not so much case of war as of information No one knew what the facts were. Great Britain herself does not know. l Senator Chandler read a petition in Ithe British parliament urging the arbi- tration of all disputes between Great Britain and the United States.
 Senator Teller said congress should uphold the president. He never ex- pected to see the president who would not uphold the Monroe doctrine.
 At the conclusion of Senator Teller s speech Senator Morgan said he would lie to have the bill referred to the for eign relations committee, but unless the objection to it's second reading was withdrawn it would have to re- main on the table till tomorrow.
 Senator Allen refused to withdraw and so the bill goes over untif tomor- | row.

PARISIAN OPINION.
Great Britain Declared Only Strong

 La Liberte says: Tt is only false alarm and will certainly foe arranged. 3
 The Journal Des Debats says: We can't imagine an election maneuvre in such a grave question. It is probable that the good sense of the statesmen at Washington and London will pre- vent the dispute being envenomed to the extent of open rupture"

A SERIOUS LOSS.
Destruction of Chaplain Scott's Resi-
 dence by Fire.

Upon Chaplain Winfield Scot. has come loss that cannot be estimated in money and for which to him will go the most sincere commiseration. Early yesterday morning, while the family and guests were at breakfast in a nearby building the residence took fire and no work could subdue the flames. The house, a light frame structure, burned to the ground in but few min utes, with all it's contents, leaving the former occupants with but the clothing in which they were habited at the time.
 The main loss incurred is not that of the building, but of the scholarly ac- cumulations of lifetime brought thither by the chaplain upon his re- turn from the army. His papers and books were his treasures, and with them his swords and medals and every relic and memento of his long service to his country in the civil war and in the latter more peaceful years.

EUROPE DOESN'T LIKE IT Opposed to the Monroe
 Doctrine. Comparison of American and British Strength. A Gallic Editor Believes All Europe Should Make Front
 Against Us.

LONDON, Dec. 19.-Officials of the British foreign office declined to ex- press any opinion on the Venezuelan question and the same attitude of re- serve was maintained at the United States embassy here.
 The St. James Gazette says: "The pretensions of President Cleveland and Secretary Olney are so exaggerated and language so offensive that one could not be surprised if there was a similar explosion of violence here. But Lord Salisbury has kept his tenn per and the nation will do likewise un- til the time comes Mhen we shall do we'll to be angry and that time may come. We are all anxious to give the American government an opportunity of forcing it.''
 The Globe publishes comparison of the British and United States navies It says of Americas twenty-six iron clads as against Great Britain's sixty four, many are useless and of torpedo gunIboats Great Britain has thirty three and the United States one. Con tinuing, The Globe states that of tor pedo destroyers Great Britain has forty-two and the United States not one. Great Britain is also said to have ninety-fve torpedo boats against two American torpedo boats. Besides, The Globe points out Great Britain has all ready thirteen ships in her North American squadron, five on the south ern coast of America and six on the Pacific coast
 In commenting today upon the Ven ezuelan question the newspapers gen. erally agree that the situation is more serious than has been thought In the public mind also there is a general feel ing of disappointment at the action of congress. The stock exchange here and exchanges throughout the coun- try continue to be influenced.

 The Figaro asks why should the United States refuse the other powers the right of defending their interests in America, when they themselves in- tervened in Turkey without anyone thinking of opposing them.

NAVAL STRENGTH
Believed to Be the Essence of the
 Argument.

NEW YORK, Dec. 19.-A local paper prints an interview at Washington with Chas. H. Cramps, the head of the great shipIbuilding firm, on the subject of war with Great Britain growing out of the presidents attitude on the Venezuelan question.
 MT. Cramp said the presidents mes sage is just so strong as it represents the National strength on sea. With a single battleship, it would be weak and beneath notice, with one such ves- sell it would demand some attention and so on as the number increases until if backed up by twenty it would be un- anSwerable.
