inches of water now. I feel confident that
there is more water in the channel than
that. When the river gets down so low
the gauging of the height of the water
is mere guesswork. The scale on the
wharf is useless. 1t is a shame that city
the size of Wheeling cannot have better
marks than they have. The fgures are
incorrect. Below five feet there are two
sets of figures and they are both wrong.
stranger, and sometimes rivermen, can
look at the marks and not know the height

Another prominent riverman when seen
expressed about the same opinion as the
above, only he suggested that channel
be cut in the stone marks We have, and In
this steel rails be placed the entire length
of the stones. After being made secure by
pouring lead around them we should have
the correct river marks chiseied IN them.

Birds blood Is several degrees warmer

| boys in the neighborhood The lieuten-
ant states that DR.. Lewis has entered
several complaints about wagons, push
carts, etc. standing on the street Lieu
tenant Heffner is of the opinion that the
boys entertain no ill-feeling toward DR..
Lewis; that the boy who broke the win
dow was one of : party who live in the
vicinity of Sherman and Whitney Ave-
nues; that on the evening of the break
ing of the window. they were on their way
to the theatre, and that scuffle ensued
at that corner, aai that one of the boys
threw a small golf ball at another one
which went through the window. He says
that officer Barnes Was at the moment
not half a square away in the act of re-
porting to the precinct at the patrol
box.
Lieutenant Heffner states that a po-
liceman has been in constant attendance
on the corner in question on market days,
and that in his opinion the officers give
the locality as good protection as is pos
sible for the amount OF territory they
have to cover.
In forwarding this report to the Com
missioners Major Sylvester says.
I'm this connection l beg leave to state
that have frequently given this locality
my personal attention. with a view to
regulating conditions in the vicinity of the
market house on Street, between Four
teenth and Fifteenth streets. and on mar
ket days an officer is continually station
ed near by. The patrol box is but half a

cry half hour. and feel that the locality
is given every attention. possible with the

my active interest in regulating affair
in this vicinity is largely prompted by Il

teenth and p Streets. He informs the
Commissioners that he has had occasion
frequently to complain of this matter
and that his various protests have result
ed only in temporary relief. 1t may be
true, he admits. that the police force is
inadequate to the needs of the District
as whole, but he is of the opinion that
there is mismenagement of the force re-
sulting in the failure to keep the indi-
vidual policeman to the strict discharge
OF his duty.
DR.. Lewis then recites the circum-
stances connected with the breaking of
show window In building belonging to
him. He states that the boy who did 1t
will probably be punished, but when that
is done 1t does not pay for the window,
the repair of which, $75 at least, must
come out of his pocket. He therefore
comes to the conclusion that he and the
boy are sufferers on account of inefficient
police protection.
The complaint having been referred to
the Police Department. the Suierintend-
ent forwarded IL to Lieutenant Hetfner,
with the request that he should inform
Headquarters "as ito the number of COM
plants he had received from DR.. Lewis;
IL the boys have cherised any ill-feeling
