NORTH WILLOW BITULITHIC.
Engineer Cairns Thinks the Boston
 Contractors Should Repair It.

City Engineer Cairns, who was up taking a look at the pavement on North Willow street this morning, said that in his opinion he did not think 1t would cost the city anything to have the street put back in proper condition. The street was badly dam- aged by the storm of Tuesday even- ing, the water getting between the curb and the bitulithic, causing the street to be severely damaged. The bitulithic was laid by the Warren Bros of Boston and Mir Cairns sees no reason why the firm should not be made to. repair the street for the street if properly laid would not have been gutted as 1t was.
 The engineer and his aids are rath- CT, busy Nthis month with maps and plans in connection with all the work in which the city and the Consoli- dated road are interested. The mayor wants these matters hustled along so that one grand settlement can be made in regard to grade crossings, street extensions which will come in contact with the tracks of the Con- solidated and other matters which Mayor Thoms thinks should be fixed up at this time.
 The city engineer in discussing street extensions said that in his opinion the Liberty street extension looks like a sure thing now. He de- clared that with careful management everything will in all probability be arranged in such way that in short time the extension will be reality and the expense being much less than 1t would have been had the work been done some years ago.

THE DEBATE IN PARu|AMENT
 VAS CONTINUED TO-DAY The Leaders of the Constitutional Democrats
 Are Afraid to Call Halt THE ACRAR|AN QUESTION N0T YET ASSIGNED LEADER OF THE PEASANT FACTION MADE A STATEMENT OPEN LETTER SENT TO EMPEROR ASKING IN THE NAME OF JUSTICE AND HUMANITY FOR DELAY IN THE DEATH
 PENALTY BILL AND TO SUSPEND EXECUTIONS

St Petersburg, June 9.-The de mand for an opportunity to speak or the agrarian question in the lowe, house of parliament is so pressing that the rule against the house sit ting,on Saturday has been abandoned and the debate on this important sub ject was resumed to-day. Every member seems to feel that he should make known the views of his con stituents upon this issue.
 The leaders of the constitutional democrats. who realize the necessi- ty for action. dare not propose to limit the debate as that would savor of restriction of the sacred right of free speech. A month has elapsed since parliament met and the agra rian question is not yet consigned to a committeee, which must be done in order that the details of the bill may be elaborated. The few conserva- tives no longer attempt to defend their views and by tacit consent the constitutional democrats, who feel certain that their program will pre- vail, are abandoning the field to the radicals. who continue to urge the full naturalization of land.
 NJ. Annikin, one of the peasant leaders, declared that the theory that the peasants are conservative is ut terly fallacious. They were now as firmly convinced that the land be- longs to them as they were in 1861 that servitude should cease and were utterly incapable of grasping the idea of private property in land. He con- cluded:
 We were elected to give the peo- pie land and liberty. We find it is necessary to appropriate private prop erty and confiscate the land of the crown and church. The government must beware or soon 1t will be too late and the people will take what the government refuses to give.
 Prof Maxim Kovalevsky of khar- koff and a score of members of the lower house supplemented the action of the house yesterday in accepting the governments decision to insist on a months delay in the case of the death penalty bill, by addressing an open letter to the emperor appealing to him in the name of justice and hu- manity to suspend all executions until the question of the death penalty is finally decided.

For the Third Time.


 Baltimore, Md, June 9-.Governor Edward Warf1eld announced last night that he had appointed William Pinkney Whyte to fill the senatorial vacancy caused by Senator German s death.
 MT Whyte will enter the United States senate for the third time and for the second time by appointment to fill an unexpired term, having been named by Governor Swann to fill out the term of Reverdy Johnson upon the appointment of the latter as United States minister in 1868.
 William Pinkney Whyte was born in Baltimore August 9, 1924, and was admitted to the bar in 1S46. He was elected to the legislature in 184- and was comptroller of the state terasury in 1853. After filling out Johnson's term in the senate he served as governor of Maryland from 1871 to 1874. He was elected to the United States senate in 1875, but declined reelection as senator in 1880 and in the following year was unanimously elected mayor of Balti- more. He was attorney general of the state from 1887 to 1891.

ONE LAST APPEAL.
Fuckers Attorney Will Interview
 Governor Guild Again.

Boston, June 9.-James H. yahey attorney for Charles L. Tucker, un. der sentence of death in state prison announced to-day that he intended to send a letter to Governor Guild ask. ing for a reprieve for Tucker.
 Although under the law the execu. tion may take place any time after midnight tonight, Warden Bridges had planned to wait until Sunday had passed before executing the sentence and 1t is thought possible that he may consent to a further delay.
 MT Vahey declined to announce the basis for reprieve, stating that lie would visit Tucker at the prison be- fore sending the letter to the gov ernor.
 It was said at the prison to-day that Tucker showed signs of break ing down under the strain, but on the other hand was singularly cheer full and calm.

ANOTHER BEAUTY SPOT.
Floral Five Pointed Star for Uniorsa
 Square Park.

The handsomest flower bed yet, fixed up by Florist Saxe in the city parks was got into shape yesterday at Union square. It is a representa- < tion of five point star and beats all previous efforts in that line, not even excepting the one in the green. Can 1t be possible that the artist put few additional touches On this one of-his own accord or is it the result Of an order from Mayor Thoms to do his prettiest in the stronghold of de- mocracy? But that makes no differs ence. Look at that flower bed in the little beauty spot made a few years ago by E. B. Kelley, and see what you think of it.

Ashley and all the rivers in this
section Of the state are higher than
they have been for fifteen years.
The bridge near the Cotton place was
torn out by the county commission
ers in time to save the timbers. A
danger sign is on the bridge near
Preece's farm, and the east end of
the Kabell bridge is sunken some,
and 1t is feared the bridges lower
down on Ashley creek will go out.
The torrent has been rushing around
all of the bridges and washed out the
road in many places. The bridge
across the Uintah at Fit. Duchesne
went out Wednesday and 1t is feared
the one at Leland will also go. The
Myton bridge Is still in place across
the Duchesne, although the water is
