Portugars Royal Family i'm Danger.

From the New York Tribune.
The situation at Lisbon continues so criti-
cal that the royal yacht is lying, pro-
visioned and with banked fires in the
Tagus. a short distance from the shore,
ready for any emergency that may arise.
That shows how serious are the appre-
tensions of the king and queen of some
revolutionary outrage, which may compel
them to seek refuge. with their children,
on board the yacht. 1t is likewise asserted
in court circles that the majority of the
royal valuables. such as plate and jewels,
are kept on board this yacht, which is
manned by officers and sailors on whom the
king can rely absolutely. The precaution
Is wise, since the first thing that a reyo-
lutionary mob IS in the habit Of doing is to
sack the royal palaces.

PLUMBERS MAKE APPEAL.

Objections to Rule Requiring Per.
manent Deposit to BE Made.
The District Commissioners today listen
ed to an argument by Mr.. John McAvoy,
who asked that an amendment be made to
the plumbing regulations resembling that
portion which requires a plumber to keep
$50 on deposit with the treasurer of the
District as a guarantee for the privilege of
cutting pipe and making necessary con-
nection.
Mr.. McAvoy urged that the requirement
was a hardship to many plumbers who
have but limited capital upon which to
conduct their business; that sometimes a
plumber does make such a cut, but that the
amount received by him is not more than
$3.50; while at the same time the man may
be very busy with remodeling and repair
ing inside work for which the $50 on de-
post could be used in paying OF his en-
ployes. He also said the adoption of the
100 scheme was at the request Of some
of the master plumbers. and at the time
was both fair and reasonable, as mary OF
them sometimes had from twenty to thirty
jobs going at time. Mr.. McAyoy asked
that the board make new rule, 50 that
1t will be optional with the plumber
whether he will keep permanent deposit
of $50 with the board or win make de-
post Of say SO or so for each cut separ-
ately.
The board took the matter under advise
ment.
Charles Nash today pleaded guilty before
