coMmoN COUNCIL cENsuREp.
For Refusing to Pass tho Ordinance Pro.
---- vi0ln& for u Bond lssue

For RefusinE to Pass the Ordinance Pro-
viding for u Bond Issue.
The action Of the Common Council.
Tuesuaoy night in'refuslng to pass the
ordinance authorizing the issuance OF
bonus ~ the amount OF SIS OUv TO uerrns
EXPENSES or constructing overhead
bridges at the Twenry-t1rth and Thir-
ty-1Vurth street crossings was gener-
ally commented on yesterday.
Had the council not passed two ordl-
naness few minutes before one au-
thorlzing the city engineer TO prepare as
soon as possible plans ana SpecinrationS
anu the other giving the Newpur, News
anu Old Point halfway ana Electric
Company the right to use the yiaducts.
the action OF the council might MOI
have been open to such severe critl-
cism.
In this instance the councilmen
crossed the bridge before they gox
to 1t. and the voting down OF the or
dlnance has been characterized an
chilu's play. Business men and cita-
zens generally condemn it. They agree
that such acts have tendency to drive
capital out of the city. Until the via
ducts are built the new electric rail-
way system cannot be put In, and the
franchise granted TO the company fos
putting down tracks and operating an
electric car system may be forfeited
unless some speedy action is taken,
l
befs OF the council are at loggerheads
on the bridge question. for some are in
favor of building the Twenty fifth and
Ihirty-fourth street bridges, but ar~
against closing up the grade crossinn
at Twenty-eighth street by tunnelinG
under it or building an overhead Via
duct. while there are those who are Ia
favor Of building all three OF the cross
inss. and If no provision is made for
crossing Twenty-eighth street they arr
dead against the Twenty-fifth and
Thirty fourth street crossings. Thu:
the Twenty eighth street crossing Is
hazardous to life and limb there is no
ground for a sane man to dispute, and
steps should be taken for building eth
er tunnel or bridge. but there is no
excuse for delaying the work on the
other crossings. Rome was not built
in Il day. and certainly the Common
Council. no matter how august a body
1t may be, cannot do everything at
once. 1t is only a matter Of a short
time when the Twenty-eighth street
crossing will be built. for the public
will demand it. but the failure of the
council to provide for the construction
of the crossings Tuesday night was not,
Gent cause for voting down the bond
ordinance. as that was retarding pub
lie improvements.
Mr.. 7. a. Willett. one of the mem
bcrS who voted against the ordinance.
Yesterday stated that his reason for
doing so was because he thought the
Nawnort News. Hampton and Old
Point Electric Railway Company. Of
which Mr.. Frank Darling is president
was being Disseminated against. and
he deemed it unjust. Then. too. Mr.
Willrtt thought that the Twenty eighth
street crossing was dangerous to life
anu ''''''. -.-.-a Cos. X hat reason should
be closed.

No Attempt Made TO Assassinate the
Captain General
copyright. 1898. by Associated Press.)
HAVANA. June 22.-lO:4o A. M
There Is absolutely no foundation for
the report published In the United
States of an attempt to assassinate
captain General Blanco by n member
ot volunteers whose brother. it was al
legged, had been shot for completely in
IL plot against the government Gencr-
al Blanco enjoys the esteem of all
classes in Havana. including the vol
unteers. and is regarded with the ut
most confidence as the representative
of Spanish sovereignty The Cubans
admit that they are under obliga, tons

nent OF autonomy In the island The
palace guards are from the volunteers.
and several officers OF that body are
aides ON the generals staff. General
Blanco's public appearances are fire.
uuently the occasions OF patriotic dem
constructions. and that he has no fear of
assassination is shown by the fact
that he often rides out without an es-
cort. visiting the fortitications about
Havana without the attendance OF the
usual body guard.
Complete tranquility reigns in Hava-
ma. The greatest confidence is felt that
the Spanish forces will successfully
cope with the American soldiers who
We're yesterday reported to have ar
rived on board transports off the har-
Dor of Santiago de Cuba There is
great enthusiasm among the troops and
volunteers. who are all anxious to fight
against the invaders.
Captain General BlancO denies that
lie has decided that there Shall be no
exchange of prisoners with the United
States. AT the same time the captain
general says he cannot allow the ex-
change of Lieutenant Hobson and the
other members of the party who sailed
the Merrimac into the mouth of the
harbor of Santiago de Cuba. for the
reason that the lieutenant and his COM
panons had opportunities for seeing
the harhor and its defenses. The most
common prudence, the captain general
says. would forbid that these men be
given their liberty as proposed by the
United States.
General Blancco added that he had
not forbidden the approach of vessels
bearing flags of truce. but had only or
dered that no vessel be permitted TO
approach within six miles of the shore
50 that it be made impossible for off,
GERS of the United States to make
drawings OF or inspect fortresses.

WASHINGTON, June ga letter

General Van Reypen. Of the hospital

wrote the letter had an opportunity
to examine the dead as well as the
wounded. and he writes to Doctor Van
Reypen on the subject as follows.
The wound of exit is an entirely
different wound from that made by the

LONDON. June 23.-The Daily Tefe-3
graph publishes this morning long
letter from Madrid. in the course Of
which the writer says:
Peace or war Is the all-absorbing
topic. Every fifth word shouted in the
ever-crowded cafes is Pas or Guerra
and the desire for peace is unanimous.
The feeling of the nation and the mills.
tary party especially is. however, that
the government has betrayed the coun-
sry and now only wants to arrange for,
peace to save the dynasty and itself.
Therefore peace must be made with
the nations express consent, not be-
hind It's bnck. by private letters to the
Pope ard the Austro- Hungarian en-
peror. It may be desirable to uphold
the monarchy but the country must be
saved even though the dynasty We're
to disappear in the effort.
'In fact the government has sue
,eeded in placing the dynasty in an un-S
.nviable light. and in ranging f
against the Spanish army, and it has
.lso made the question of peace and
war choice between the interests of
me dyansty and the welfare OF the
spanish people"
