SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS. MONDAY, MARCH 8. 1886.
KILLED AT ITS BIRTH.
The City Council Turn Themselves Into
Sewer Grangers.
Editor San Antonio Light.
The newer proposition, an passed by
the City Council, kills it before it can
reach the ballot box. The “sewer farm”
project is simply an unnecessary and ex
pensive experiment, one not at all justi
fied either by the natural surroundings
or sanitary considerations. The town
of Pullman, near Chicago, was cited as a
successful instance of the sewer farm
method. It is in no way situated like
our city; it is built on a dead level with
out natural drainage; in fact, few cities
in the world are so favorably situated as
San Antonio to insure a perfect and in
noxious system of sewerage without
other expense than the laying of the
sewers and use of water to flush them.
Our river is nature's sewer for an im
mense area ot country; it falls SCO feet in
the course of 100 miles, dashing over
rapids and tumbling over natural falls;
its stream through our city limits is so
rapid that the sewage of a city
of a million people might be poured
into it and a few miles below
would not be noticed; the sewage
of our present city could be flushed into
it twice a week without aflecting the
purity of the water a hundred yards be
low the point of contact; emptied below
Guenther’s mills it would never be
noticed or complained of.
There are numerous manufacturing
cities built on rapid streams in New
England where this question lias been
fully tested; one city after another using
waters of the same river for manufactur
ing purposes and domestic use. and
finally as a conduit for sewage; It being
proved by analysis that the waters puri
fy themselves within a short run, so that
their chemical purity is unaffected. But
tiiis argument is only of moment to the
inhabitants beyond our city who may
possibly use the river water, to our city
it is of no consequence because the sew
age would be gone beyond our limits,
carried by a racer whose velocity and
force is immense, leaving neither stain
or taint behiad.
The river, at present, is used at every
point, after it enters the ci’y, as a sewer
for water closets and the receptacle for
all sorts of tilth not withstanding the or
dinances forbidding such polution;
from every street crossing the river
the filth of the streets, the accumulation
of weeks, and sometimes months, is
flushed into it at the most convenient
points. In fact, more tilth in a decom
posed and dangerousconditfon is poured
into the river to-day than would be from
a sewer system. With a sewer system,
the river could be protected and its pres
ent pollution prevented.
Had the City Council sought practical
illustration of the action of flowing water
upon sewage, they could have found it
even here, right at home. Our two main
irrigating ditches are used us open sew
ers, receiving, at points, the discharge
from hotel water closets used by hun
dreds of persons tiaily. The use of these
ditches seems an outrage, as the volume
of water is small and is often cut off,
leaving the beds exposed, 'i et the peo
ple have ceased to complain of the pollu
tion. evidently experiencing no incon
venience from this use of ths ditches.
in the discussion before the Council
(if we can call it a discussion) as pub
lished in the papers, not a member of
that body presented a good reason for or
against the “sewer farm” idea. Ai
derman Lockwood, Chairman of the
Gas and Water Committee, said the sew
age would “fatten the fishes” in the river,
just as if aur river wa< a carp pond!
Alderman Gallagher said he was op
posed to using our "historic river;” lie
could more appropriately called it “our
historic sewer.” for so far as the river is
concerned, only its banks are historic.
Aiderman G. has a rich imagination but
the river be gazes on at any given point
is changed in the twinkling of an eye—
it is not the same river of a moment ago.
Aiderman French became classical and
related an ancient fable about a man's
belly being out of order. Mr. F. was the
mover of the amendment to adopt the
sewer farm system ; if the condition was
coupled witli the proposition that His
Honor, the ex-Mayor should be superin
tendent or head granger of the aforesaid
farm it would make It more popular
with the people.
Had tjie Council simply passed a reso
lution to submit the proposition of vot
ing $lOO,OOO for a sewerage system, to
embrace if necessary a water-works sys
tem sufficient for flushing purposes, the
people would feel inclined to favor it,
but the sewer farm with its indefinite
expense, will «ot succeed. Blunt.
The Strike.
St. louis, March 6.—At 10:30 a. in. all
shopmen in the Missouri Pacific shops
struck. Advices from Hannibal and Se
dalia are that all men struck at those
places at the same hour. Knights here
claim that the men at DeSoto, Mo., ate
also out and that by to-night not a mem
ber of the order will be at work on the
whole system. A round of the Missouri
Pacific shops was made by a reporter of
the United Press this afternoon, and not
a man was found at his usual place, with
the exception of the foremen. The shops
were guarded by a committee of the
strikers. The ewitebingof cars was pro
ceeding as usual in the yards, but the
question of how long the engines could
be kept going, without even a man to
coal them up, the strikers say will only
be one of a few hours. Active work is
being done to array the switch
men, brakemen and firemen along
side the shopmen in the strug
gle, and bids fair to develop
soon. Advices from every point upon
the entire system where shopmen are
emploved show them to be out to the
man. General Superintendent
when questioned as to the outlook this
afternoon, plainly stated that be could
I see nothing to do but stop all woik and
wait until the men returned to work, as
| it was impossible to procure men to take
the places vacated. There are in all
about 3000 shopmen now out, almost all
of whom are skilled mechanics. The
strike is more than double the force and
■effect of the famous walkout just one
year ago, when such a signal victory
Iwas gained by the men. “The confident
Ulr of the men is wonderful,” said Judge
Advocate McGarry. “We can win this
I lime much easier than last year. Then
ivc were scarcely organized and won,
(nd now we have 1500 men in our dia
rict, all of whom we may call upon.
>ont it look like we will win?” Ail
>rts of rumors are flying, among which
' one that the men upon the St. Louis
-idge will support the men, even to a
rike.

Studebaker Workmen Walk Out
South Bknd, Ind., March 6.—At 2
o’clock this afternoon 800 workmen In
Studebaker's wagon works laid down
their tools and left the shop. They
marched in a body to the Studebaker
carriage works, where this number was
swelled by the employes of tbat shop to
1100. The men were quiet and orderly,
with scarcely an exception. They were
Knights of Labor and the movement to
day was in accordance with instructions
from that order. Immediately after the
walk out a meeting was held, but its
proceedings were not made public. The
casse of the strike was the refusal of the
company to grant an increase in wages.
The men say that during the last four
years their wages have been reduced at
various times, and it is impossible for
many of them to support their families.
They say that a short time ago the com
pany expressed willingness to give needy
men more pay, but would not agree to
a general raise. It was agreed that the
representatives of the men and those of
the Studebakers should go through the
payrolls and adjust the wages, the firm
to abide by the action of the adjusters.
This had been partially accomplished
when the Studebakers’ representatives
repudiated the whole transaction. The
strikers are quiet to-night, and there is
no indication of a riotous outbreak. It
is believed the matter will be settled by
arbitration at an early day.

Gamblers Raided.
Jesus Gonzales and Blas Villareal
were arrested last night by Gity Mar
shal Shardein and Assistant Marshal
Cardenas in the back room of the old
Occidental Saloon, next to the Fashion
Theatre on Military Plaza, for keeping
and exhibiting gaming tables. The offi
•cers testified that information was
lodged with them that gambling was
going on, and accordingly they arrested
these men, and they found two monte
games exhibited with several hundreds
of dollars on the tables. These men
pleaded guilty before the Recorder this
morning and received their punishment
of $25 tine Jand 20 days imprisonment,
with perfect indifference.
Dangerous Hook.
The hook to which the rope was at
tached that was used by the eight young
men who represented harlequins in the
Turner hall masquerade Saturday night
is in Mr. Max Schunke’s possession. It
was found afterjthe young safely
descended from the reof of the bar-rootn
by the side windows in the hall to the
ball room, that the hook was cracked
and nearly broken in twain,and had any
extra jerks been given the rope, some
body may have had broken limbs or
broken necks.
School Changes.
Miss Llllita Gill has been appointed a
teacher in School No. 8, the old First
Ward School, and Miss Martha Cook has
been transferred from this school to the
new First Ward School. No. 8, in
order to accommodate the large num
ber of Spanish pupils attending this
school and in order thne they might have
the benefit of Miss Cook's Spanish edu
cation.

THE TURNER MASQUERADE.
King Momus Reigned Supreme—Fun
and Frolic on all Sides.
The annual masquerade ball of the
Turner Association took place at their
ball on Saturday eight, and notwith
standing the exceeding inclement
weather and almost impassible condi
tion of the streets, it was a grand suc
cess in point of members, as well as in
Hie enjoyment of the participants. The
Eighth Cavalry Band furnished the
music, and the hall was elaborately de
corated with flags and figures, and in
the center ot the hall was suspended a
large cyllinder appropriately decorated.
The stage was tilled with spectators,
and the body of the hall was reserved
to the masked merry-maker*.
The maskers began to arrive about 9
o'clock, and the first group whs that of
tour negro minstrels and their dusky
sweethearts, four colored chambermaids
with their feather duster*, who after
wards changed costumes to pretty
columbines; they were Misses Sofia San
tleben, Adeline and Mary Hernandez
and Emily Welling, and Masters Louis
Wetling, Henry Wagner, Ed. Froboese,
Jr., and Adolph Hernandez.
The next group were eight harle
quins and eight columbines. The harle
quines came in down a rope from the
roof by one of the high windows on the
west side of the hall, 'they were all
dressed in white, which had a very
pleasing eflect. Their rames were as
billows: Misses Julia Haenel, Emily
Huck, Joanna Schuenke, Emelin
Schuenke, Ida Horn. Emma Horn, Min
nie Heuermann. Bertha Dauenhauer.
Messrs. Joe Beckmann, Luis Fries,
Eugene Griesenbeck, Max Schunke, H.
Michel, Eugene Nordbaus, Otto Roach
and William Kypfer. The first Italian

front of the stage. The Esquimaux were
Henry Schumann. Adolph Scbunke, Ed
Schunke, Louis Drelss. Louis lleuer
tnann. — Hebner, Emil Scholl and Albert
Barbeck.
Among the individual characters there
were many very pretty costumes and
successfully sustained characters, and it
is impossible to give all. Among the
most conspicuous were Miss Virginia
Bossy a* Music; Mies Jessie Evans as
Widow Dunn, very interesting; Miss
Bolz, a German peasant; Misses Lizzie
and Katy Sens, Bohemian peasants; Mrs.
E. M. Stapp, Queen ot Roses; Mr.
E. M. Stupp, courtier of the time of Louis
XIV. The Buraclienscliafters were Ben
Mauermann, Gus Mauermann, Charles
Runge and John Beckmann. Miss Em
ma Degen was a success a* a colored
dudine; E. LJBowsky entered the ball on
h burro nod made n decided hit; Dr.
Adolph iierll a* a Mexican cahallero
and Mrs. G. H. Kalt ever as bis dulce cora
zon were conspicuous for elegance of
costume; Miss Sofia Lacoste wa* a Span
ish Senorita; Miss Maria Lacoste and
Mrs. F. Herff were Sultanas. Lucien La
coste was a Spanish Grandee; Edward
Ducuron an Italian bandit.
The Esquimaux got the first prize ot
$lO for the best group; the negro min
strels and their dual lady attendants got
the second. Mis* Emma Degen, the
dudine, received tirst prize for single
lady masker, and K. I. Bowsky, with his
burro, the first gentleman.
It 11:30 the huge cylinder hanging
from the center of the ceiling parted
with a loud report and showered candy
motto kisses down by the bushel, cre
ating a lively scramble.
At 12 o’clock supper wa* announced,
and dancing was kept up till nearly day
light.

What the Evening Paper Doos.
