There arc about 500 meters In use in

service for five or six years with tho re-
suit that they do not register all the water
passing through thcm.
They will be replaced with new meters,
and those taken out will be givon thorough
tests. II they re yisser to within 2 per cent
Of tie entire quantity Of water passing
through them they will be used again, as
1t Is claimed by the officials of the depart

set more water than for what they pay.

SAGASTA'S EMOTION
On Learning That the Peace Com
,.,r missioners Had Agreed.
OARLIsT UPRISING IMMINENT.

The Spanish Government Has Ordered Il
the Military and Cvil Authorities
to Maintain the StrIctest Vigilance
Over Telegraplis and Telephones.
Madrid, Nov. 30. - Senior Sagasta
showed much emotion on learning that
the Spanish commissioners in Paris had
formally agreed to sign the treaty of
peace on the American conditions, but
he assured his friends that he was con-
WINGED he had adopted the best course
in the interests Of the country and the
monarchy, adding that the news had
lifted great weight from the minds
of the people.
The government. apprehensive as to
the effects of signing the peace treaty,
has ordered the military and civil au-
thorities to maintain the greatest vigi-
lance over telegrams and telephones A
strict censorship Of newspapers Is con-
tinued throughout the country. and
special severity is shown with respect
to articles alluding to the peace nego-
tiations.
Unfavorable information had been
received, even from official sources,
concerning the Carlist propaganda and
preparations. which are decidedly as
suming serious proportions. FL Epoca
says thar Carlism is spreading, not
only in Blscay, but in Guipuzcoa,
Basque province bordering on France,
and in places hitherto tranquil. The
Bilbao papers report official precau.
tions there owing to the smuggling OF
muskets.
Other papers assert that the Carlists
are openly offering in Madrid and else
where commissions for officers and
daily pay at three pesetas for Volun-
teers. There is much anxiety in finan-
cial and political circles lest the Carlists
seize the opportunity which is pre-
sented by the profound disappointment
of the country at the loss of the Phil
ippincs, after the government had un-
wisely led the nation to believe the
archipelago would be retained.
The Carists do not conceal their in
tention to issue a manifesto, though
the government has issued orders for
the severe rcprcssions of any disturb
ance. Many noted civil and military
Carlist leaders have been abroad for
some time, and there it no doubt the
Carlists have collected funds in SPAIN
If not abroad. Their propaganda in
the army. however, has been unsuc. ..
ccssful, even among the discontenled
rcpatriated soldiers, who were ex-
pected to become willing recruits.

STREETS AND
SEWERS.

New Ordinance Regulating
the Removal of Ice
and Snow. !:

The Street and Sewer Department last
night made step in the direction of clean
sidewalks and uniform sidewalks.
An ordinance providing that snow and
leo be removed from sidewalks within ten
worEing hourSntierths snow has ceased
falling, was given two readings and re-
ferreA .un VI tbe Hext meeting when 1t will
be adobtUN
Tho now ordinance fixes fine Of 81 In.
stead OF 81 as prescribed by the OLD ordi-
nance 1t also apple, to tho sidewalks OF
the entire city.
Rep, e;cntatiyes OF the New York Dredg'
ing Company asked for permission to uso
about four feet OF Chrstiana Avenue on
which to build dixie, so as to hold tha
mud that Is pumped from the bottom OF
tho river. The board will visit the spot
OH Saturday, and will probably grant the
request, provided 1t does not interfere
with travel on the road. =
Mel Simmons presented his proposed
law for uniform sidewalks throughout tho
city. Itprovidcs that in the future any
sidewalks laid in front Of properly stu
atei between Font and Sixteenth and
Lombard and Broome streets DO either OF
flag stone or cement Messrs. Pratt AMI
Webster thought the district too large
and that it would work hardship OH
some poor persons who desire to pave in
front of property they own. The proposed
ordinance, however, wns given two read-
ings, -nn4 when it comes up for passage
at the next meetingit is likely that the
limits of the district will bo changed SO
as not to embrace such a largo territory.
A petition was received and granted to
set curb on the east sido of Lincoln street
between Second and Fourth. The dofec-
tive board walk on West Thirtieth street
was before the department. for some limo
and tho street commissioner was instruc-
ted to order the property y-owners to put
down sidewalks.
Engineer Hatton presented report OH
Clements run sewer which crosses tho
railroad tracks near Liberty strest. The
trunk which puses under the railroad
tracks is too small to carry off tho water
thlt emptes into tho sewer, and The wa
ter has frequently backed up, damaging
some property. The trunk has capacity
of t0o cubic feot per second, while the
sewers emptying into it havo capacity
of 10? cubic feet per second. The secretary
was instructed to write to the p. W. e. B.,
tho W. & n, and the 3. & o. railroads,
tullng them to enlarge the trunk under
plans drawn by tho engineer.
Street Commissioner McClosky was in
structed to repair Lombard street be-
tween Twelfth and Thirteenth. Tho street
at tprossnt is in very bad condition.
Wagons frequently got stuck iu the mud
and ruts and are often damaged. A drive
way Of stone about sixteen feet wide Will
be laid, SO MS to make the road pnssa5!o
during the winter, and in the sprinS 1t
will b. thoroughly repaired.

In Superior Court yesterday afternoon
John Wesley Vernon was released on
$1,000 bail, pending tho result Of injuries
inflicted on James II. Stirling. The teSti-
mony produced by William S. Hilles
proved beyond a doubt that the affair was
an accident ami tho court had no hesitancy
In admitting Mr.. Vernon to bail which
George w. Eornor furnished.
During the afternoon Sheriff elect Tay.
lor gave bond in tho sum Of $4,000 for
tho faithful performance OF his duties
during his term. George W. Vernon.

B. Clerk, and Patrick Fnhey, who sw 'rc
they wore worth $4,000 were accepted by

fore the bond was accepted, however, Mr.
Taylor, ut tho suggestion of the court,
swore that he was elected sheriff of the
county. The court stated that there was
some defect in he law and this was the
safest plan to avoid error.
