CORRECTING WATER LISTS.
Measurements of Frontages Result
in Many Complaints.

The correcting Of the water lists by in
spection and measure OF the frontages Of
lots causes some friction between the De-
partment and property owners. In some
cases it is found that the entries in the
books of the Water Department are in
error in favor Of the District and vice
versa.
Mr.. Baldwin V. Johnson, OF 11O1 Rhode
Island Avenue northwest. owns lot 1891
@ Street. 1t was first entered on the
books with a 2l-foot frontage. On request
of the owner an examination was made
later and the frontage reduced to twenty
feet. In the inspection and measurement
now going on in the city. the frontage of
this lot was found to be twenty-four feet
and the entry in the books made ac-
cordingly. Presentation OF the bill FOR the
increased rental brought a request for
reduction of excessive rental.
Two other lots belonging to Mr.. John
son. 1906 and 1905 Vermont Avenue. were
found under inspection to have been en-
tered as OF twenty feet frontage when they
we're in fact sixteen feet front In this
case the error was made as the applica-
tion on file in the department shows by
a wrong statement as to the width OF the
lots by the owner.
Presentation of bill for reduced rem
tai brought to the Commissioners n re-
quest for refund of the amount paid on
these lots since 1SSS.
Capt Chester Harding. in charge OF the
department has reported to the COmmiS-
sioners tnat 1t is the practice Of the de-
partment to make no demands for pay
ment OF rental where the lots have been
listed less than their actual width. and
the same practice has been adopted with
reference to refunds when the errors are
of the opposite kind.

Jersey Mosquitoes nnrmIe.s.

After n summer spent in studying the
mosauito Prof ]. B. Smith, New Jersey
State eutomologist, in an address before

mosquito does not bite. He discovered
two species peculiar to New Jersey, and
neither OF these will bite. The m1squi-
toes that bite are of species common TO
all the States of the Eastern seaboard.
but the only two species that are really
Jersey born and bred do not bite In fact,
one species has no stinger, so it could
not bite If it wanted to.-Philadelphia

Commissioners think 1t is due to this
fact that access to some OF them is now
made difficult.
The Commissioners further say that
there is every probability of the section
being built up somewhat rapidly. For
that reason it seems to them that the
grades and street lines now established
should not be changed.

SITUATION UNCHANGED.
Contending Forces in Steel Strike Set.
tIing Down for a Long Struggle.

PittsDurg, July 2i.-The strike sit
uation practically presents 10 new
phases and ii appears now "a If the
contending forces are settling down
for a protracted struggle.
While the company at the Wells
Vile mill received the accession Of a
few men from the ranks Of the strlk
ers, the number IS not large enough
10 justify the mill in starting up in
full. In the meantime the Amara-
mated men are keeping a constant
watch upon the mill and all avenues
that lead 10 it,
Pickets have been thrown out along
the streets and at the railroad stations
so that nothing will escape the yigi
lance OF the strikers If the company
should bring any new men in.
Al Devices Wood mill in Mckees-
port everything is as before. From
unofficial sources. believed 10 be con
versant with the company's plan. il is
said the management have 10 iater-
ton OF resuming the operation OF the
plant AT present. Nevertheless the
strikers are wary and evidently do not
believe this because they continue 10
patrol the streets for the purpose Of
towards the mill.
At Nandergrift and Duncanyille the
men appear to be entirely satisfied and
work is going on there as usual. All
the efforts of the Amalgamated asso-
citation 10 get the men out have 80 far
been futile.
One of the most significant develop
ments Of the strike is the order from
the officials Of the National Steel com
pany 10 have the former rail mill cf
that company in Youngstown fitted for
rail rolling again. The mill was or
iginally a rail mill. but during tn
early part Of the present year. Otter
the consolidation had been perfected
between various underlying companies
as the United States Steel corporation.
the Youngstown rail plant was aban-
doned and its product turned into
sheet bars and bllets.
The fact that the National Steel
company is thus preparing To change
its rail production and shut off its
steel bar and billet production is taken
as an indication that the officials OF
the United States Steel corporation
are anticipating no early settlement
of the strike. but are rather looking
for some considerable delay in opcr-
ating the mills.
