In case recently heard by the Police
Court SO DR.. VIM. c. Woodward, the Dis
trict health officer. has been informed,
Judge Scott held that, inasmuch as tenants
of house in the vicinity of 18th and r
streets northeast were properly using Poto-
n &C water. furnished them by the munich
pality, and the District had obstructed the
natural flow of the water down grade by
filling in street, it is the place of the Dis
trict to abate the nuisance by providing
means to carry off the water. The Judge
therefore discharged the persons who were
II Is said. charged with maintaining nuts
ance by causing water to run on to certain
lots in that locality. The defendants, it IS
further stated. were prepared to prove that
prior to the filling In of 18th and r streets
no water ever stood on the lots
In view of this decision of the court DR..
Woodward has recommended to the Com
missioners that steps be taken by the Dis
trict to abate the nuisance which exists at
the intersection of 18th and streets.

MEN ANTICIPATE VICTORY.
Striking Steam Filters Encouraged by
the Outlook.

There is no change to report in the status
Of affairs regarding the strike of the steam
filters of this city which has now been in
progress for about ten days. The usual
daily meeting took place this morning, and.
as heretofore. there was a large attendance,
thus showing that the ranks remain I'M
broken. 1t was reported that during the
last few days about twenty filters have ar
rived in town in response to advertisements
of the employers. but it was said they were
returned to their homes by the members of
the local union.
1t was stated that all jobs where it is
probable non-union men could get work
closely watched and in several in
stances where filters had gone to work
they were persuaded to abandon the same
1t was further stated that a number of
union machinists from Baltimore had ar
rived In this city with the intention of go
ing to work in place of the strikers, but
when the situation was explained to them
they refused to do so.
Secretary Gaut of the local union has. 1t
was announced. communicated with the
Machinists' Union OF Baltimore, informing
them of the condition of labor affairs in
Washington. and he has been assured that
no more Of the members of the union in
the former city are likely to come here I'M
til after the settlement of the existing
troubles: but. should any come, owing to
misrepresentation on the subject. their eX-
penses back to Baltimore will be paid by
the union Of that city.
So far, II is declared. the employers have
not been able to substitute non-union men
for strikers on any Of the jobs which Were
In progress when the men quit work.
The leaders of the strikers report that
they are very much gratified with the out
look. and are confident that the men will!
be victorious in the end. 1t Is asserted that
not only have there been no OBJECTIONS. but
that the membership of the union has in
creased since the strike began.
