BL LAcKSTONE SEWER ROUTE
IS CHANGED IN CABANNE.
Councils Committee Recommends q
Natural Course, Which Satisfies
All Parties Interested.

The proposed Blackstone district sewer
for Cabanne will have a natural course in
stead of the route described in the ordi-
nance. which Is In the hands OF the City
Councils Committee on Public Improve
ments. This decision was arrived at yester-
day by the committee after meeting with
those interested in the project.
The sewer. according to the latest plans.
will commence at point on De Baliviere
avenue near Waterman avenue, and run In
southeasterly direction to River des
Peres, via Delmar. De Giverville and Belt

through Forest Park and into the River

The old plan was seriously objected to by
Sewer Commissioner Hermann and the
Park View Realty Company. the former
because it took the sewer from its natural
course, and the latter because 1t gave the
city a right-of-way through Waterman
avenue, on both sides of which thorough

Comptroller Player has assured the Sewer
Commissioner that he Will include IN his s
500. 900 for sewer construction. and this as
surance has served to satisfy all who are
interested in the proposed sewer.
Mr.. Hermann estimates that the Black
stone district sewer will cost about $s26-
Co., Of which amount property owners Will
have to pay about $z260O0. The work will
be completed before the end of this year.
The Councils committee instructed Mr.
Hermann to prepare an amendatory ordi-
nance providing for the new route. It
probably will be submitted to the Municipal
Assembly next week. and the bill now in
the hands of the committee in the interim
will be reported unfavorably.

This disease may be caused in several

of much misery in the stomach Under
such conditions the digestive organs are
thrown into disorder. so that the supply
of gastric juice is either too scanty or
too weak: therefore, there is not enough

PRESIDENT MAY WITHDRAW
NOMINATION OF CRUM.
Own Party May Cause Him to
Relieve Senate.


REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
Washington, Jan. 2s.-If the Senate Com
mittee on Commerce had voted to-day upon
the nomination of Doctor W. d. crum to
be Collector Of the Port Of Charleston. g.
c.. an adverse report would have been the
result Twelve Of the sixteen members
we're present.
1t was understood that vote on the
nomination was to be taken. The case was
freely discussed as 1t was shown that sew
eral members were opposed to fayora BILE
action. and only five sustained the an
poiEtment. Three Republicans-Messrs. Ell
kins of West Virginia, Jones Of Nevada
and Perkins Of California-voted with the
Democrats against Doctor Crum. The five
Republicans who. favored Doctor Crum did
SO on political grounds. and with a view
Of maintaining friendly relations with the
Republican organization.
At least two Of them privately admit that
the appointment Is unfortunate and they
would cheerfu!ly join IN movement to
have the nomination withdrawn. Further
consideration Of the case was postponed un-
til next Thursday. In the meantime tie
President will be advised of the situation.
and the hope Is freely expressed that he
may see his way clear to withdraw the
Such action Is not altogether improbable
for Mr.. Roosevelt admitted on several oc.
casions pf1or to sending Mr. Crum's nomi-
nation to the Senate that he was not en-
thusiastic over the prospect of being forced
to make the appointment.
Republican Senators have no intention of
discrediting the President. but many of
the most Conservative freely assert the un-
wisdom OF forcing Doctor Crum upon
charleston simply because he is a negro
politicians who has figured censpicuOusly
IN several Republican national conventions.
y was asserted in the Senate to-day that
thorough understanding of the social and
commercial conditions in Charleston render
II exceedingly doubtful whether the nomi-
nation will be confirmed II the President
should refuse to withdraw it.
