OF ANNEXA [: I.|0N.
Mr.. Lynch Offers One Which
Is Adopted in Com
mittee.
DOUBLES ACREAGE OF. CITY

The Ordinance Committee last night,
after discussion by citizens and membc, !
adopted the Lynch plan OF annexation a,
outlined in The Times-Dispatcn OF yes.
| terday, with a slight amendment Offered
by Mr. Minor, taking in about 200 acres
additional on the northwestern border OF
the city.
1t was 1890 A. NJ. when the body ad-
tourned, there having been many speeches
by prominent people. both for and against
annexation. The vote In favor of the
plan adopted was as follows:
Ayes-Messrs. Cannon. Labney, Glenn.
Lynch, Minor and Umauf-6.
Noes-Messrs. Blair. Dickel son ana Bot
tom-3.
The plan practically doubles the area
Of the city and brings in about 10000 adj
ditional inhabitants.
1t leaves out the Cedar Works and thu
Locomotive Works and cuts off ti.e Gar.
ber property IN the East End. The line
then goes practically TO the top OF Fui-
ton Hill so as to allow the.ci to con-
troll that water shed.
1T also runs back to Oakwood Gene
&
source. so as to control the water sheds
in that section, Paramount is taken IN
and the line runs far enough beyond tic
Richmond. Fredericksburg and Potomac
and seaboard Air Line Railroads on the
north to furnish ample manufacturing
sites. Sherwood Park is left out as are
Barton Heights and Chestnut Hill.
On the west, the Dooley property and
Home Place are included and the il,nc
runs to the Roseneath Road and Is praG-
tically that asked by the citizens who
advocated the broader lines.
Messrs Minor, Lynch and Umlauf were
named as a subcommittee to draft the
report, which will be made to the Board
of Aldermen next Tuesday night. The
committee was, on motion of Mr.. Cannon,
Instructed to incorporate in the ordinance
provision to allow the taxes In the am
nexed territory to remain at the county
rate for period Of ten years. j will
also provide for the Issuance of l2 per
cent. bonds equal to the value Of the
territory for improvements
4 The prospects for getting through the
new plan are very bright.

"JAs. A, WYATT,


Mr. Page stated that he expected Ser
geant Wright to arrive with his prisoner
sometime to-day, hut on what train he
could not tell. He denied that he had
made any mistake In drawing OF the ex-
tradition papers. The facts are that the
Governor OF New York desired addl-
ettonal information regarding the caso
and MS soon as this was sent him
through the proper channels he signed
the papers. IS
There has never been any question OF
Smiths being held by tho New York
courts, 1t Is denied by his associates
that Mr.. Davis has any idea OF tnstitut-
Ing habeas corpus proceedings.
TheNcase will be called IN the city
court this morning ut 10 O'clock, and 1t
is thought that Sergeant Wright wifi
have reached Manchester with Smith in
time for the preliminary trial.

After The Stars report of the meeting
yesterday afternoon closed, Admiral Winfield
Scott Schley addressed the assembled vet
Grams. He received a hearty ovation and
was introduced by Commodore Allen of the
old navy, who described him as the
who had done much to cement the narth
and SOUTH and who said, There is glory
enough for US ALL" Il came here this after
noon that I might enjoy the association
with my friends" said the admiral. Il
have served under the national flag for
fifty years, less one. l came from an an
cestry that has participated in every war
OF the republic, from the Indian war of 1884
to the SpaniSh-American war of 1888. In
the civil war l served under that great cap
tain, Farragut. l remember well his mag
niicent presence and his sterling character.
He was man of graceful appearance and
placid temper, and yet in war l never saw
a man whose presence was so grand AID
whose humanity was great.
Il rejoice that after that great war our
flag has new beauties for its friends and
new terrorS for the foes of liberty. The
battlefields of that great conflict are today
the objects of the pilgrimages and Meccas
of our people. They are consecrated by the
blood of our brothers, and our flag is more
beautiful for it. God never rains his privi-
leges down except in blood The principles
for which we fought there in that war have
come to last forever. These states are per-
petuated in indissoluble union by them.
have found the same enthusiastic patriot
ism. The men of our country have purpose
and character and the women have beauty
and brains, and they make this country
an enemy that never will be overthrown."
This brought redoubled applause from
those on the stage and from the audience.
THE Spanish war Is of such recent occur
renee as to need no new mention here" he
said, and then there was more cheering.
