Favors Rebuilding Bridge.

Col. Charles j. Allen, Corps Of Engi-
neers, in his report to the chief of engi-
neers regarding the Aqueduct bridge
across the Potomac river, says the bridge
should be rebuilt, with new piers, abut-
ments, and new superstructure. The
last timbers of the coferdam were re-
moved July Is, 1901. A balance Of $751;
477.96 is available for repairs of the
bridge. Regarding the proposed me-
moral bridge, Col Allen says; "The
specifications and estimates accompany
ing the competitive design which was
selected as the most suitable are full, ex-
plicit, and clear. The estimate is as close
as can be expected of an advance estimate
for a large work of that kind. The plans,
sections, profles, and details twelve in
number) are in good shape for use. In
case of an appropriation for this much
needed bridge there will be nothing, so
far as known, to prevent prompt COM
mencement of the work including the
preparation of materials, special detail
drawings, such borings at the precise
sites for piers and abutments as aprudent
constructor wouldEmake, not withstanding
that a full survey, including borings, had
previously been made, &c.

TUBERCULOSIS INoCULATIoS.-Dr.
Granaut of Paris, who, on June II,
inoculated himself with matter taken
from a consumptive COW in order to dis
prove Prof. Koch's theory that it is inn
possible for human beings to catch
tuberculosis from cattle, has written to
the Paris Temps announcing that the
incubation has produced tuberculosis
tumors. He says this proves that man
is quite as susceptible to bovine tuber-
culosis as any other animal He again
inoculated himself July Is, by inserting
under the skin of his left arm a fragment
of tubercular matter from the liver of
diseased cow The second incubation
was performed, because he feared that
the tuberculosis of the skin resulting
from the first would remain too long
superficial. Thesecond form of inocula-
ton when performed on guinea pig
inevitably causes death within eight
weeks. This will give an idea of the
risk DIR. Granault is running.

Police Court Notes.

Justice Joseph Beach presided again
this morning in the Police Court.

Entertained the Veterans.

The Confederate Veterans of the
Seventh Georgia. Regiment, numbering
about 120 men and fifteen ladies, ar
rived in this city about 8 o'clock last
night, after having celebrated the forty
first anniversary of the first battle of
Manassas, at the Henry House, at
Manassas, in the afternoon. They were
met at the Southern Railway depot by a
committee from r. f. Lee Camp, Con-
fcderate Veterans, and escorted to Lee
Camp Hall, where they were rendered
supper prepared by the Woman's Aux
iliary. Afterward informal speeches
were made by the visiting veterans.
Today they will visit the various places
of historical interest in this city. The
hall was tastefully and appropriately
decorated with palms and ported plants
for the occasion, and three long tables
were spread with all the delicacies of
the season. Variegated lights adorned
the tables. The hall was packed to its
utmost capacity. After indulging in the
delicacies for three-quarters of an hour
the assemblage was called to order by
Commander f. G.. Graham, of the local
camp. The various members of the
Georgia regiment were then called on
for informal speeches, in which nearly |
all OF them paid a glowing tribute to the
|1ost cause" and related interesting /
war "reminiscences of the first battle of
Manassas. Miss Peake, of Atlanta, Ga,
recited a war poem, which was greatly |
enjoyed. The Georgians will leave at
1870 o'clock tonight for Fredericksburg.
From Fredericksburg they viii 60 to
Richmond, where they will spend one
day, and they will then leave for At
lanta, Ga, arriving in that city the lat
ter part of this week. The veterans of
the Georgia regiment are in charge of
Colonel Carmichael, who is the last
colonel of that regiment. There were
only forty veterans of the original regi
ment present. The members of that
command are now scattered all over the
country. This regiment fought Duryea's
Zouayes at the first battle of Manassas.
They assisted in the capture of Ricketts,
and Frazier's batteries at that battle.
They have with them the first flag that
was captured from federal battery.
The first colonel of the regiment was
Col. Lucius j. Gartwell, and the second
was William T. Wilson, who was killed
at the second battle of Manassas, and
the third was Col. w. w. White, who
was wounded near Richmond in the year
1862. The battle flag of their regiment
was carried by the veterans, and bore
the words: "Repel the Invader" The
flag bore evidence of having seen service
for it was pierced in several places.

unseemlx Conduct in the Street.

Justice Beach, who is presiding in the
Police Court temporarily, this morning
gave instructions to the police to arrest
all women making indecent exhibitions
of themselves in the northeastern portion
of the city. He said complaints had
been made of the unseemly conduct OF
women in that locality who often attract
attention by going into the street in a
half-clad condition. The complaint is
chronic, as the same species of conduct
has caused protests to be lodged at police
headquarters on other occasions.
