THE UNION LEAGUE DIsBANDs.
Republicans Give Up the Idea of
Having n Great Club.

Having n Great Club.
The Union Republican League. an or
ganization formed Just after the late
Presidential election, with the object of
establishing q great national club to be
conducted something after the order of
the Union League clubs Of
Philadelphia and New York, held
meeting at the Riggs House
last night and decided to dlsband. The
league had about Us members, among
them being many Of the most prominent
Republicans connected with the Admins
tratioa and official life in Washington.
The club had been holding sessions
monthly since its organization, but these
meetings failed to bring out any great
representation of the members. This was
largely owing to the fact that official life
and other duties engrossed the time Of the
members The treasury was ia a healthy
condition.
W. S ShaIIenberger, First Assistant
Postmaster General, who Is vice president
Of the organization, presided at the meet
ing held last night =. T. Chase, the sec
retary, acted in his official capacity. Let
teTS from . number of members were
read. expressing regret at their inability
to attend. The question Of dissolution was
brOaChet-- Many Of the members were in
favor of continuing the organization in
the hope that eventually it's purposes
might be realized A general discussion
followed, and representations were made
concerning the impracticability Of contin-
uing the league. in view of the approach
ing summer sea son and the absence of
many members from the city and of the
ren1oteness of the next Presidential cam
paign. This view Of the situation finally
prevailed.
Authority was given TO the secretary to
meet all obligations against the club and
to sell the furniture and uarsr hernaIIa
belonging to the organization The bal
ance in the treasury will be divided
among the members, and the league will
then be extinct

The question Of using yitrified pipe Tor
the drainage of two houses on the Ten
Ieytown Road. near the District lire, has
been the subject of discussion among the
authorities for several days. The question
was raised by an application made by +.
! and W D. Heider for permission 10 use
the material mentioned.
Charles 3 Ball. the Inspector of Plumb
ing first considered the application. and
reported to the Commissioners as follows
The Two houses in question are on the
TanIeytgwn Road near the District line
The water supply Is to be furnished BY
a windmill pump. 1t seems improbable
that public sewerage viii be provided for
this locality for very long time, and
that when such public main IS available
q reconstruction of the plumbing viii be
necessary. The improvements in this To-
caIity are quite widely separated. and
there appears TO be no reason to suppose
that nuisance or damage would incur by
the use of terra Gotta sewer lines from the
house TO the street.
I therefore recommend that the aPpii-
cants be given permission to use four-inch
terra Gotta sewer lines from point tEen-
~ feet distant from the house wall TO the
street gutter for the wastes of kitchen
sinks"
The matter was then referred 10 Dr.
William c. woodward, the Health Officer,
who reported as follows.
This request for special dispensation
from the Inspector of Plumbing allowing
the use of terra Gotta sewerage lines in
stead Of cast-iron pipe does not appear to
require action by the Health Department.
If the general question as to the ad-
visibility Of permitting this drainage to
flow to the public roaR Is, however, to
he considered I would suggest that this
determination requires a knowledge Of the
grades and construction Of the gutter and
OF the ability OF the Engineer Department
to keep it in proper condition
If, therefore, this point is TO be con-
sidered, I would respectfully request that
this paper be returned with information
as to these points

ment - called upon for a statement
