ABoUr STREET HARDENING.
Seeming Unfatrness fin Assessment
 Unenrthed.


 A prominent citizen and city official in looking over the matter of street paving assessments in New Haven for the past few years, yesterday unearth- ed some interesting facts. He found that during the years 1SS5-18S7 about $204,975 was spent by New Haven for paving streets with crushed stone, more commonly called street hardening. Not a dollar of this expense was assessed upon the property owners whose properties abut on the streets hardened. On the other hand, during the period 1872 to 1884 the city spent $297, ,000 for the same purpose, that is hardening streets with crushed stone and of this $209,83 was assessed upon and collect ed from abutting property owners. The depth of the hardening for '72 to 'S4 was about fifteen inches, while for the pe- riod 1855 to '97 the depth was only about eight inches. The gentleman referred to above claims that it is unfair that the parties living on streets paved in the last twelve years should have been obliged to help pay for the hardening done during the years '72 to 'S4, while the parties living on the streets paved in those earlier years are relieved, by the assessments laid, from helping to pay for the streets hardened during the last twelve years.

ATLANTIC AND GULF PATROL.
The Navy Department Has Completed
 Arrnngements for It.

Washington, June 16.-The navy de- partment has now completed its ar engagements of the Atlantic and Gulf coast patrol and stretching from East port, Me, around to New Orleans, there are no less than forty auxiliary naval craft, including yachts, recon structed single turrent monitors of the civil war, tugboats, ferryboats, and not 8 few large and we'll armed merchant men. These forty ships are disposed at the several large coast and gulf cities, while a hundred miles or more seaward an outer picket line is maintained by four of the larger steamships. One of these outer pickets is maintained as far north as Nova Scotia and the southerly picket is off the eastern coast of northern Georgia. The largest num- Der of defense vessels is at New York city, the commerce requiring protection being greatest at that point Boston, Charleston and all coast points have their share of the auxiliary craft, mak- ing as whole a naval patrol consid- cred adequate for any emergency in protection of our eastern and southern coasts.

at the Massachusetts and Oregon, fall ing in their wakes.
 Throughout the bombardment the dy- namite cruiser Vesuvius and the Porter lay outside of the right flank. The steam launch of the flagship scurried among the ships, carrying messages. At the close of the action stream of multi-colored flags floated from the New York, thus complimenting the ships, and especially commenting the work of the Texas and New Orleans. The men of the New Orleans raised cheer, which was passed quickly on from ship to ship until every jackey in the fleet was bowling Himself hoarse.
 The destruction and death at the western battery must have been appal- ling. Many of the guns had been mounted during the last two days From this it is inferred that Admiral Cervera has given up all hope of extri- eating himself from the trap in which he is caught and has taken some of the guns from his ships to strengthen the forts. As some of the guns on the eastern batteries did not fire Sampson thinks it possible that they were only dummies. The number of shots fired is not known when this dispatch is sent. Judged from a position near the flag ship, which during the bombardment, with several interruptions, fired two hundred and eight shots, probably no fewer than five thousand shots were fired.

MESS M4RJoN JONES WINS.
Daughter of Senator Jones Victorious in
 Tennis Championship.

Philadelphia, June 16.-Miss Marion Jones of Nevada, daughter of United States Senator Jones from that state, to-day won the final round of the championship tennis tournament at Wissichakon Heights. Her opponent was Miss Helen Crump of Philadelphia. By winning the final round to-day, Miss Jones has the right to challenge the present champion of the United States, Miss Juliette Atkinson of New York. Miss Jones and Miss Atkinson will meet tomorrow to decide the championship. The match to-day be- tween Miss Jones and Miss Crump was not up to championship form. Miss Jones at times was somewhat cratic. Her strongest point was her driving Miss Crump was almost continually on the defensive and her backhand strokes were lamentably weak. In the mixed doubles event for the champion ship, the best performances were by Miss Nicely of Chicago and MT. Fischer of New York, who beat Miss Juliette Atkinson and MT. Thurber of New York in royal battle.

Washington, June 16.-The state de- partment has received report from Consul Williams, who was stationed at Manila before the outbreak of the war, describing the battle of Manila, in which he was a participant, being on board the Baltimore at one time and on the flagship Olympia at another time. The consul says the battle last ed two and one-half hours and that the Spanish were outclassed at every point. He says: "Our guns had great CT effectiveness, our officers and men showed greater bravery. The crews are hoarse from cheering and while we suffered for cough drops and throat doctors we have no use for limiments and surgeons" He says Admiral Dew ey's exploit rivalled that of Paul Jones'
