Suggestion has been made that The
city ought 10 procure centrifugal
pumps instead of the big Menee
pumps now in use While he former
would not have as great capacity as
he latter It is claimed they would
DO an the work that will ever be re
CURED of them. and at perhaps one
fourth the cost of the Menge pumps
in the matter of fuel The centrifugal
pumps would force the water through
the levce against the river. while
the Mongc pump must lift IL twenty
feet or more over the top of the levec
even though the river may be ten
feet below the top. Another sugges-
lien f. made that gates be set into
the inner side of the cietern into
which the water flows from the pump
which may be opened as The river
goes down and obviate the necessity
of lifting The water 10 the top Of the
cistorn NO matter what stage the
river may be-. This would ave tho
pump some work and save something
ir the way Of fuel Put Aldermen
NaEner believes The centrifugal
pumps would be in every respect and
by long odd- the most efficient and
most economical that can be had.

Harry pillans was unanimously adopted that the chairman write or telegraph con eressman Taylor in Washington urg- ing him to use his best efforts to in- crease to H,ooo.oo0 the appropriatioh p for Mobile work under the plans re- commented by the Board of Engineers, and for S100,000 annually for five years for maintenance.
 The chairman was requested in this resolution to notify Congressman ray Tor of the desire of this committee to get an appropriation of at least s56o,- 900 as recommended by the Board or Engineers It was the opinion of the members of this committee that since the general appropriation for rivers ana harbors work had been increased the appropriation for Mobile workshould be increased accordingly.
 Harry IIartwell moved that the chair- man appoint committee Of not more than fifteen members to go to Wash ington and explain to Congressman Taylor exactly what the Mobile people want and to use their influence to- ward getting reasonable appropria- tion. In connection with this, Major w. r. Tebbctts moved that the chair man appoint a committee to put out & dragnet for more funds to defray the expenses of this delegation. saying that the life of Mobile and this port de- pended upon the advancement of the port and thatSall the people of this city should be interested in 1t. Both mo- tions were adopted.
 Capt. A. c. Danner, the chairman. announced that there was about $500 in the treasury, and that this amount would take care of about three mem bers.

Hearst as Mayor. Attorney General Jackson, acting under orders from the Supreme Court. caused raids to be made early today at such storage places throughout Greater New York as wore known to his representatives.
