THE arrival of Mr.. White, the
Transvaal agent, in Washington
has placed the administration in an
unenviable position. Hay wants
to keep his son, Adelbert, in Office
and at the same time assure Eng
land of the truculency of the ad-
ministration to her interests. In
order to bridge both chasms it is
proposed to receive Mr.. White as a
private person.

DAMMING UP ROCK CREEK.
Complaint Relative to the Dump i'm
Tventy-Eonrth street

On complaint OF Albion X Paris. rela-
tive to dumping refuse on the south side
of Rock Creek the District Commissioners
recently ordered an enquiry into the facts.
Lieut. r. B. Boyle. of the Third precinct.
Metropolitan police. in reporting on the
matter. stated that the dumring COM
planned OF was in the line of Twenty
fourth Street. He also stated that the fill
ing had been carried so close 10 the bank Of
the creek that any further deposit of ashes
or dirt would act az means OF damming the
water course. Lieutenant Boyle suggested
either that the dumping be stopped or the
stream protected by wall or fence.
After the matter had been referred back
TO the Commissioners. Captain Breach rec
commended thar, il possible, the dumping
be discontinued on the ground that its
continuation would tend 10 create danger
in time Of food by the backing UP Of the
water into Geological Park. He suggested
that the-Tecords in the case by submitted
to Attorney Duvall to ascertain whether
the Commissioners had authority to order
the practice stopped.
The opinion of the Attorney has just
been received by the Commissioners, in
which he cites an ordinance of the late
corporation of Washington (Webb's Digest,
34l which provides as follows:
at shall not be lawful for any person or
persons to deposit earth on the east side of
Rock Creek within the limits of this cor
poration. without having first made wall
sufficiently strong TO prevent the same from
falling into the water Of said creek. Such
persons shall keep the said wall in re-
pair. and for any infraction Of these pTovi-
sions fine OF $50 shall be imposed upon
the offender, to be recovered in the manner
that other fines imposed by this corpora
tion are one-half of which shall be for
the use of the person informing. and the
other half for the use of the corporation. "
Attorney Duvall gives it as his opinion
that the above ordinance is still in force
and applicable TO the present instance. He
believes the owners of the land should be
notified of its provisions. and, upon failure
to comply Herewith should be prosecuted
in the Police Court. He holds that the
Commissioners have authority TO act in the
premises. particularly in the line Of the
street referred to-
1t is understood that the Commissioners
will act in the matter as advised by their
Attorney.

PROTECTING THE YOUNG.
The DeplOrabIe Condition Surround
ing Youthful Prisoners.


The District Commissioners for some days
past have had under consideration the
question of the separation of youthful pris-
oners in places of detention from older and
more hardened criminals.
The subject was referred to the Commits
sioners by Senator Mcmillan, Chairman Of
the Senate District Committee, he having
received communication on the subject
from Mrs. e. B. Russell, of this city. In
her letter to Senator Mcmillan Mrs. Rus
sell stated that she had served for several
years as matron at the District Jail. When
in that position she declared, she had
seen girls not more than eight or ten years
of age brought in on sentences OF fifteen
TO thirty days for theft.
From the time of their arrest until they
were discharged from JAIL" Mrs. Russell
states, these children were never sep
arated from their fellow prisoners, who
were men and women. They were sent to
and from court in the van with old and
hardened criminals, the vehicle often be-
ing so crowded that the women and little
girls were obliged TO sit on the laps OF the
men. In all their associations with those
older in crime than themselves" Mrs Rus
sell says. children and unmarried girls
were compelled to listen to profane and
vile language. separation of the two classes
of offenders being at no time possible, even
in court
1t is the same,' she continued. "in the
cells in the stationhouses, and still worse
at the Police Court, where the young and
old OF both sexes are crowded in to-
gether awaiting trial, and the cells are
not separated. The drinking, smoking,
and chewing OF tobacco, the vile and pro-
fame language make it that a boy or girl
would better be beheaded than to pass
through the stationhOuses, the Police
Court, or the upper court, for the same
conditions obtain there, and then to the
workhouse or the jail. There is in some
of the stationhouses some arrangements
made TO separate the young offenders from
the old, but they are in the same building,
and | fear the improvements will be only
temporary because they were not con-
structed for such emergencies as we have
been forcing upon them, ard yet that Is
not a good word for they (the police au-
thoritiesD have all been so very kind to
do the best they could under the existing
circumstances"
The Commissioners are agreed that the
conditions referred to by Mrs. Russell are
greatly to be deplored. and that they would
favor any feasible measure which offers
remedy. IL was explained TO a Times re-
porter yesterday that the only point at
which the Commissioners can exercise any
control OF the matter is in the police sta
tionhouses. There, il is said, provision is
made. so far as circumstances will allow,
for the separation OF young prisoners from
the old, by placing them in available rooms
under the care of the matron.
