REJECTION OF BYRNE
HAD THE EFFECT OF A BOMB IN
THE ADDICKs CAMP.
Believed That It Will Help Along
Coalition Between Delaware Reg
ulars and Democrats.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
DOVER. Del. February S.-The action of
the committee on judiciary OF the United
States Senate in recommending the rejec-
ton of the reappointment Of William Mi
chael Byrne as United States district at
torney for Delaware was a bomb in the
Addicks camp.
1t exploded with a force that created con-
sternation among the union republicans. On
the other hand, there was rejoicing among
the regular republican and democratic leg
islators. Conservative men like Henry c.
Ellison Irregular republican,. president pro
tenn. OF the senate, exclaimed: THANK the
Lord" Representative John Bancroft reg-
ular republican, said, Its all right" in
tones that were loud, and others were
equally Jubilant.
The rejection is due simply and solely to
the action OF Byrne in running as Addicks'
candidate for Congress against Representa-
tive L. Heisler Ball Irregular republican, at
the late election. thus permitting Henry A.
Houston (democraD to be elected. Had
there been no division Of the republican
vote the election Of DR.. Ball would have
been certain.
1t Is only natural, therefore, that Repre-
sentative Ball should have done all in his
opponent That he did this effectively the
outcome shows.
Senator Hoar, the chairman Of the COM
mittee on judiciary, was in complete &C
cord with Mr.. Ball on this subject. The re-
suit demonstrates that, in addition to hav-
ing been defeated for Congress, Byrne will
now be deprived Of the Office that he pos
sessed before accepting the fruitless nomi-
nation.
Bitter Pill for Union Republicans.
Had the anti-Addicks republicans devised
a scheme to injure John Edward Addicks
they could not have been favored with a
more powerful weapon than the rejection Of
publicans to swallow. and Is, accordingly.
a pleasant potion for the regulars.
It shows the exact status Of the Addicks
and will do more to prevent the acquisition
by the union republicans Of additional SEN
atorial votes than any other move.
It Is the belief that 1t will help along
coalition between the regulars and the
democrats, inasmuch as it demonstrates
the lack Of influence at Washington of Ad-
dicks on all propositions.
One reason why the regulars are holding
off is the fear that such a combination
would not be well received by the national
heads Of the republican party; but now
that Addicks has been turned down 1t Is
understood that they see they can main
tain an independent attitude and at the
same time be Endorsed.
This week will probably show what direct
effect the Byrne rejection has on the sena-
torial issue. The more prominent Of the
tai declare that the matter will be fought
out on the floor Of the United States Sem
ate, but this Is regarded as only being the
dying wall Of a lost cause.

Construction Impracticable.

The Commissioners have cancelled the or
der to lay cement sidewalk on the north
side OF Massachusetts, avenue extended
from the Woodley Inn property to Joliet
street, and on the north side Of Joliet street
from Massachusetts, avenue to Wisconsin
avenue. An opinion has recently been
handed down in the District Supreme Court
denying the Districts title to consider
able portion OF Massachusetts avenue
through which this walk would be built,
thus making its construction at this time
impracticable.

lice Court this morning 1t was continued
until Thursday. Sparrow recently sent a
suit of clothes to tailor shop conducted
by Newton and he alleges that the money,
which he left in one of the pockets by mis-,
take, was missing when the clothes were
returned. The defendants deny the accusa-

MANURE FOR POTATOES.

Is infected by the scab fungus, will

fined and then incorporated into the
soil by repeated blowing and hnr.
rowing. as the action Of the earth
would destroy the fungus. But I be-
lieve this theory not sound. Some
years ago I cleared away the rem.
nants Of an old log house which had
not been tenanted In 90 years and
plowed half an acre around where the
house had stood, thinking ! would
have a fine. rich potato patch" !
was particular TO plant clean seed. but
the tubers proved TO be as scabby a
lot az ] ever saw. How did this fun
gus get into that particular spot?
The last family living In the house
must have left II there. There was
another seeming incongruity con-
nected with this case. II Is generally
believed that an application OF lime 10
potato ground rather promotes the
growth Of the scab fungus. The chin
ney Of this old house was built from
the ground on the outside, as was the
custom in an early day. The stones
were laid In lime mortar. When j
first knew the premises the chimney
had been down for many years, and
the stones and mortar OF which II Ind
been constructed were scattered pro-
m%iscuously about; but, strangely,
where this mortar had lain the tubers
were free from scab. ] certainly can
not o for these eases of scab
and no scab. My experience is that
