The Water Situation.

It's no common scare that we have now
over our water supply. There is only
about three feet of water in the village
reservoir which, at its bottom, doesn I
mean much. Worse still, the inflow is al
most nothing and the level is constantly
falling.
Everything is frozen up. J. H. Lamson
had six men working at one time Satur-
day. There were no late fall rains, and
winter started in with springs and streams
low. The intense and continued cold. and
the absence Of snow protection has sent
the frost dow n To an unprecedented depth,
not only choking the running water, but
freezing pipes far below the surface.
Springs have given out entirely, including
some OF the largest in the village system.
Little water flows in the brooks. The
recent break in the village main wasted a
large quantity OF the precious fluid
Every new break means more trouble, and
the supply is so low that the usual circu-
lation through the pipes cannot be kept
up.
The main on lower South Main street,
which is a "dead end, is supposed To be
closed BY frost. number of the homes
on the hill, as well as on Weston fiat and
School street, are deprived OF water by
trouble with their branch pipes. A break
in the supply pipe flooded the cellar OF the
Noyes store Tuesday evening. but was DIS
covered in season to prevent damage to
goods.
The water commissioners held meeting
yesterday TO consider the situation. While
Il is impossible TO increase the supply at
present, every step has been taken 10 pre-
vent unnecessary use of water. Watering
iroughs have been cut on. reduction
gauges placed at various points; all the
motors in the village, including those that
pump ne church organs, shut OF. the
sreameries cut down TO the limit; and the

TRYING TO CROWD THE SENATE
House Aims to Reduce Unlimited De-
bate to an Absurdity.

Washington, Feb. 13.-The United
States senate seems to have embarked
upon we'll nigh impossible feat, that
Is, of disposing of the business neces-
sary before the close of the session, and
also trying an impeachment case where
many witnesses will have to be sum-
moned and great deal of testimony
submitted, to the followed by the argu-
ments of the attorneys for Judge
Swayne and the managers of the house
who are conducting the impeachment.
There is suspicion that the house
of representatives put the impeach-
ment case into the senate at this ses-
sion for the purpose of taxing the rules
of that body to the utmost, and to show
that it's unlimited debate is impractical
BILE in legislative body. But what
ever may have been the purpose, it is
evident that the house has unloaded
upon the senate job which makes it
almost impossible to conclude public
business and adjourn at the time con-
gress expires.
Senators say there is no question
about this, and that they will be able
to get through with the impeachment,
and also to pass the necessary legisla.
ton, which must be concluded by noon
on March 4.

causes Three Arrests.
New York, Feb. g. DR.. Lewis o.
Wilcoxson, who is under arrest here,
together with Joseph A. Taylor, of
White plains, N. Y, and James A.
Smith, of this city, i'll connection with
the recovery of $40, 900 United States
government bond stolen from the Man
haitian savings institution in 1873, has
resided with his wife and child at one
OF the leading uptown hotels here for
nearly three years. He claims Chicago
as his native city, says he owns extern
sive mining interests in Alaska, and
has an income of $1,000 month.
Nevertheless he spent the night in
prison in default of 10000 bonds re-
quired by the Federal authorities. The
recovery of the bond was made through
the subtreasury in Wall street, where
it had been delivered by bank mes
senger. Thirty of the same series were
taken in the Manhattan robbery, and
this is only the third one found.
Two others were recovered in 1880.
The police are now searching for
Samuel Warren Miller, from whom Will
coxson says he received the bond in
part payment for some Alaska mining
property last Monday.
Recovery of the bond recalls the rob-
berry, 81 years ago, of the Manhattan
bank, one of the richest hauls ever
made in America. The burglars Sc
cured nearly $3,0OO,OO0 in cash and
negotiable securities.

But the pure physician is an entirely
different matter. His fees are stand
ardized not by act of Parliament, but
by that autocratic body, the Royal Col
lege of Physicians. His fees for con-
sultation at his own house are fixed
at 2 guineas the first visit and a
guinea for each subsequent one. For
consultations away from home he re-
ceives a fee at the calculated rate Of
two-thirds Of guinea a mile. Elstree,
twelve miles out of town, is ipso facto
8 guineas, Liverpool (2O1 miles, is 1874

must be remembered that nowadays

Rockefeller Interests Gain Control Of
More Of Country's Railways.

MORE OF SountryS railways.
New York, Feb. s..Positive inform
alton came to light in certain favored
quarters today that Standard Oil,
through Edward H. Hartman, has Sc
cured control of the Atchison, Topeka
& Santa Fe railroad and would be in a
position to practically dominate the
transportation facilities of the country.
By this tremendous coup, and others
of quite recent date, the Rockefeller in
terests now control a total of ~, ,740
miles of railway, representing in stocks
and bonds 1886, 100000. This vast
network of tracks stretches over the
East, West, Northwest and Southwest,
tapping the very choicest territory in
every direction. The only portion Of
the United States not included in the
new map is the Southeastern Atlantic
states.
Prior to securing control of the Santa
Fe, the Vanderbilt Hartman interests
had total mileage of 40,849. The
Gould-Pacifc group adds 13, ,7S9 miles
the Rockefeller group proper 10, ,29t
miles, and the Santa Fe brings in 1905
miles more.
