A CUlM itei the UMIMI ?!!>?? la | Commissioner Raymond lo4tr Motived t to ter from the Bentley Knight Co, urging upon the Dlstrfo-t commissioners that before franchises he given (or the erection ot unsightly poles and wires an opportunity be given that company to demon strate that tbe conduit system is to-day practi cable, and that by Its use an Ideal system ot street railways is brought within reach, and offering to appear berore the commis sioners at any time and to exhibit full details, of their construetton and equipments. They claim that the elevated conductors should never be used, except in suburbs or outlying roads between neighboring villages. They suggest that the beautiful streets and avenues of a city like Washington, should be, if possible, exempted from the disfigurement of unsightly poles, and wires suspended across the streets. Their company has, they say, constructed, and is now operating a suc cessful railway, the conductors for which are car ried in shallow sub-surface conduits, laid wholly between the ties and the surface of the street. This road Is a present financial success, and while passing through the principal streets of Allegheny City and supplying effective service to theclwtens, presents none ot the disadvantages which must always be present wherever the overhead system ot conductors is employed. In New Tort, they add. the oondult system has been adopted by the North ana East River Railway Co. NO BETTER VERDICT as to the advantages possessed by the conduit system, they say, could have been secured than the adoption by the West Knd Street Railway com pany, of Boston, of that system, the largest street railway company in the world. That company is contracting with them for the laying of conduits throughout its lines after long and careful stu-ly of everything in the way of improved motive power. In reply to th? letter Major Raymond says that the commissioners have no control over the elec trical arrangements to be adopted by any railway company whose charter authorizes the employ ment ot electricity as a motive power. 80 lar as he Is informed, he says, the only company which at present proposes to construct an electric ralW way in Washington Is the Bcklngton and Soldiers' Home Hallway Co OHM CANADIAN RELATIONS.

It is expected that the debate in the Senate will continue for several days, at least: then the mes sage will be sent to the loreign relations commit tee, and republican sentiment seems to favor the passage of an act such as the President recom mends.

Mcllhaney waited a few moments, then walked around a pile of lumber and Jumped in. Motherahead heard the splash and at once went to tbe drowning man's assistance. The watchman soon saw Mcllhaney rise to the surface and cry for help. Then he swam ashore and was lifted to tbe wharf by means ot a rope lowered by the watchman. Two policemen ap peared in the crowd, which soon assembled on the wharf, aud tbe would-be suicide was escorted to the fourth precinct station, where he was placed behind the bars. Later In the day he was turned over to some friends, who took charge of him Mcllhaney lives on Maryland avenue, near loth street. Some months ago he ended a spree by taking laudanum, but was relieved of the poison, before It nad taken effect. For Uaa Kjre mt tbe Hndlc r?T To the tdltor of The Evinimo Stab: WIU you permit me to Inquire through the col umns of your valuable paper why it is that some of the herdlcs on the line running out 13th street have recently been taken off? Why are we who live on this line subjected to such vexations de lays at our homes and at the Junction when aU the other lines are running regularly. Is the oause of this the opening of a new line on V street. 1 am reluctant to take this view of It, lor 1 can hardly think that the Herdlc Company would be so unwise as to sacrifice the patronage already ob tained on this old line. Whatever the cause mar be, the fact remains that these herdlcs are now run so far apart as to frequently compel us, who live right on the line of them, ana who heretofore have always used them, to go to ,14th street and take the cars. Will the Heroic Company ex olain to its patrons on tnls line tbe cause of this ?sem lngU unfair treatment, and whether or not wa mar expect better accommod .tlonaT H.
