Gapt
. Powell and Gol. Elliott Tell
of Plans for Testing.
EXPERTS RErORT DISCREDITED
Both Officials Believe That the Throe Enzi
neors Were Mistaken and Tbcr Snggcs
ticns Are Uncertain and Unreliable
Dsflgsr of Contamination by Drainage
from tho'Qraves in Oak Hill Cemetery.
Tha history ol the construction of the great
tunnel from Georgetown to Howard Univer
sity, gi von in Tin: Tmvb. recently, attracted
general attention to tho project for spending
$20,000 in testing it to soo whether the $1,000,
000 and more put into it cannot bo made avail
able to help supply water to the city. In that
caw it might be hoped to get water above tho
second st orv and to escape general distress in
unusually dry seasons, suoh as last summer,
when a number of trees in 'Washington died
for laek of water.
It Kbould have been slated that tho frauds
which caused the abandonment of tho tunnel j
were discovered In "some discontented briek
nwteORS." It is vndorstood that their diseon
tOHt vws caused by the faet that they baa
UeaaU&ebarged.
To fltMl out ia what tho plan for testing tho
tunnel for which -jrSC.OOO is askod, a reorter
of The Times callod on CoinmisMoner Powell
at tin District building, and on Col. Elliott,
of the War Br-imrlment, at bis oflico near
Boek Creek, on M trot. in Georgetown.
To tbe first quo-tiou Capt. Powell replied
that toe matter was m the hands of tho War
Department.
But yo had some fUen of what was pro
posed before you made the recommendation.
Yob intend to have it inspected by ougiueors,
of course," said the reporter.
TO HAVE THE WATBU l'tWP-D IK.
-Tebiud then to havo the water pumped
in t Sfte whether it will do to use."
"Ia its present condition?"
"Y6."
"Bat what about tho report or tho three en-j-hwsers,
Wilson. Fld and Graff? They say
plainly fiat tbe tuune m its piesoat conditio-
cannot jKssibly be used. Do you thiak
tuw ere mistaken?'
Ifbev may have been. Thoy said the wator
woald leak out and injure surrounding prop
erly, bat it never bn. although the tunnel i-
fuM. Tbey sefa to have been mistaken about
tbtrt. We want to try the tunnel under pr?s
sar and if it Jeaks s as to lose 40 per cent.,
say, of water seat into it, of courso it can't bo
used."
"But it had been tilled beforo it wns in
speeied by the Senate board of experts,
hhtta't JtV
Jo, I think not."
"flic benate report says it took a month to
pump it oat. It is now lull of water at any
rate.'"
"Xes. water that leaked in."
CoL Eii.ott said wbeu asked about the plan:
"I lwve known very little of tbe tunnel. It
was abaudttued beiore I came here in I960.
"What is desired now i. to nil it with water
uader tbe pressure due to ttio head of watt-r
ju Ute diSiriUmin:-n-ssrvoir, that is to &y
346 feet above low water at the Navy Yard,
and see whether it would leak to suou an ex
teat as to render it usoloss."
KXPEETfi' K10T UXBELIABLE.
"Doesn't tbe report already made to the
Edmunds committee show that the work is
worthless in its present condition?"
"Weil, that report Is not exactly infallible.
We eaa't entirely roly on whut the board of
exierts said. One of their suggestions, for
lucutnee. to make tbe tunnel nvailublo, was
to jt ia a six-foot steel pipe. This you
know would b liable to break us our mams
ooeHMonaliy do. and then I don't know how
we should go to work :o rejmir it. It would
be Jtnj'OSsiuie m lhut narrow tunnel, w:th
long distances between the shaits, some ol
unw a lui.e wax, 10 ul one section oi me
pipe out and put another in, as in ordinary
repairs. That suggestion appears to me im
practicable and with others like it stamps
the report as uncertain and unreliable.'"
-They say that no tuuuol was eversuc
cesetul for carrying water under such a pres
sure as this would be subjected to. Is that
true?"
"I tbiuk so. The only tunnel of anything
like tho depth of this is" the Kreat Sutro tun
nel for draining the Comstock mine, and it
mAe no difference whether that leaked, as it
was only intended to draw off w.'iMo water.
The Croton tunnel is not nearly so deep.
The head hero would be about 270 leet. giving
an enormous pressure."
'If it should prove to be as bad as the board
of experts supposed, hate you any idea what
it would cost to put it in condition to be ser
viceable.'"' ''Ko; I have made no investigation."
"The exports placed the figures at
emooe."
''I should think that would be largely in
"excess of the need."
An objection to the tunnel not noticed by
the Senate exjierts is that it runs almost
under one side of Oak Hill Cemetery, and
the water might be contaminated by draiunjre
from tho graes. It is noticeable, also, that a
tunnel into "which water seems to loak Ireely
almost without pressure may bo expected to
leak much more rapidly when subjected to a
pressure of flity pounds to the square inch.
COULDN'T CUKE HER:
Mrs. Slaughter Therefore Caused His Ar

She received one of Lillet's pamphlet recit

The false pretense, she alleges, is that

Death Ba's Dropped Notwithstanding tho
sovcro winter weather for the last week a
condition of good health prevailed through
out tho District. As shown by the reiTUS of
mortality to tho health departmcat there wus
one less death than in the previous report.
The death rate for the whole population fell
to as low a figure a- 15.CG as compared with
20.43 for the corresponding week of last year.
There was a slight increase in tho number of
fatal casus of chronic affections, accompanied
by a relative dei-r -ae iu acute lung attacks.
There seems to be no malignant fevers preva
lent and mortality among the aged over sixty
years aud children under fivo years is at a
minimum and below the average. Tho effort
to limit aud eradicate smnllpox is apparently
proving successful.

"I went to Washington and began to take
his treatment. That was loss than two
months ago. From the very start I noticed
an improvement, which has beon coustant
from that day to this. To-day my cough i3

MR. FICK NEARLY LOST HIS LIFE
Lockwood .Meant to Murder Him Judge
Miller's Opinion of Negroes.
Basil Lockwood, tho colored man who fig
ured, it is said, as a horo at tho terrible
Ford's Theater disaster ny rescuing a number
of tho panic-stricken clerks, was a prisoner
in Judge Miller's pohco court yesterday aft
ernoon charged with the serious offense of
assault to kill. Tho complainant was Ed
ward Pick, who keeps a restaurant at 2o. 520
Teuth street nor hwest and by whom Lock'
wood was employed as a waiter. . .. . .
According to the testimony of Mr. Fick nnd
his wife, tho former ontno as near being
butchered to death by tho drunken and infu
riated negro as any man ever did. About
niiduightMonduy night Mr. Fick heard Lock
wood cursing nnd nbusiug a customer in an
upper room. Ho called to tho colored man
to come down stairs aud ho did so, and en
tering tho bar with an oath demanded, his
wages. Mr. Fick told Lockwood to come
back Thursday for his money. This enraged
the partly intoxicated colored mnn and call
ing Fick n vile nnmo he pouudod on the
counter aud declared that If Fick would come,
from behind it. ho would murder him.
Mr. Fick cleared the obstruction at a leap
nud dealt Lockwood a blow ou tho breast
which staggered him. Lockwood rushed into
the kitchen aad returned with a long-bladed
carving-knife. Fick fled into tho hallway,
when Lockwood pursued him. and seizing
him by the foot as ho was nearly at tho head
of the stairs, throw his employer heavily to
the floor. Then pressing his knees on Mr.
Fiek's chest tho colored man made several
jabs at him with the ugly looking weapon, but
Pick's thick clothing prevented tho knife
ifrom reaching his flesh.
Lockwood then ralsod tho knifo above
Pick's throat aud brought it half way down,
but hesitated, aud with an oath raised it aloft
again. At this critical juncture Mrs. Frick
came to her husband's rescue, and throwing
herself on Loskwood forced him backwards
and caus"d him to tumble headlong down tho
stairs. When the bottom of the stops wns
reachod Lockwood lied through tho door.
Ho was arrested, and iu tho police court
yesterday alternoou tho charge of assault to
kill was proferrod against him. Lawyer
Bicks, colored, defended Lockwood. When
ho sought to cross-question Mrs. Frick sno
answered him hotly.
"Was it not imagination on your part?"
nsked tho colored attorney.
"Address me as a man of your color should.
I will not answer your impertinent ques
tions," sho replied.
Later when Mr. Fick alluded toEockwood
as a "nigger," Lawyer Bicks remarked sar
castically: "If our 'niggers, as you call them, woro
treated more civilly, such cases as this would
bo few aud far between."
Judge Miller then took n hand nnd said in
his long career ho had never found a com
munity where the colored rnco enjoyed as
many privileges as they do in this District,
but in return thoy gao only blovsand mur
ders. Lawyer Bicks then resumod his examina
tion of Mrs. Fick.
"Did you witness tho fight?" ho asked.
"Nono of your black business." was her
boated reply as sho stepped from tho witness
box.
"I'll get both of you in a placo whore you
will be compelled to nnswor mo," said tho
colored lawyer.
Never mind insinuations." romnrkedJ.
Judge Miller. "I will hold Lockwood fortho

gressmen who aro supposed to enjoy tho con
fidence of tho administration that tho Presi
dent will take action as soon as the Houso
shall havo disposed of the pending measure.
As stated in The Times yesterday Mr. Clove
laud is merely waiting with the bond i-suo
so as not to give himself the appearance of
having forestalled or discounted legislative
action. Tho gentlemon roferred to believe
thnt tho bond issue will bo announced Satur
day morning, though it is not improbablo
thiit tho Prosident may wait until after tho
next meeting of tho Finance Committee to
see what it will do with tho House bill. .
The bond isuo is a foregone conclusion,
boenuso no bill passed by the Houso can hope
to pass the Senate.
CONGRESSMEN .MUCH PLEASED.
They Arc Glad Tlsut a Vexatious Ques
tion Is Taken Out of Politics.
Senator Morgan's faco fairly beamed when
ho wns shown tho Associated Press Dispatch
announcing that Queen Liluokalnui had ab
dicated. "That is good news," ho ropliod,
"very good news indeed."
Other Democratic Senators wero of opinion
that this would tend to settle all Hawaiian
problems. Tho Bepublican Senators woro
also pleased. They behoved that tho Hawaiian
government will deal leniently with those en
gngod in tho rnbelion. but they aro also of tho
opinion that it mav bo expedient to have tho
ox-Queen removed from tho islands if her
supporters continuo to ninke trouble.
Tho dispatch was read with Interest by
both Democrats nnd Bepublicans In tho
Houso, but excited littlo surprise. No mem
ber wns beard to express regret that tho
queen had withdrawn, and most of them said
it was the w.sest thing she could have done.
Chairman McCroary, of tho Committoo on
Foroigu Affairs, said that ho hoped this ac
tion would end the Hawaiian troubles, which
had already occasioned moro Congressional
comment than their importance warranted.
Beprosentative Boutelle. of Mttino, said:
"That is tho most sensible thing sho could
do. No doubt tho government bn3 provided
for her in a financial way. If sho has re
linquished her claims iu good faith there
will be no excuso for any ono to inspiro rev
olutions in her behalf in the future. I am
incliued to beliove that tho revolutionists
wil1, ,b,. trea.ed lcniout.v, although no ono
could blame tho government if it should da-
cido to oxecute V ileox. Had the revolution
succeeded;! havo not the slightest doubt it
would hayii been followed by a massacre."

SIGHT OF OLD OCEAN.
That's "VVhat Washington Delegates to
Boston C. V. Convention May Hayc.
Tho Washington delegates to the Interna
tional Christian Endeavor convention which
will bo held at Boston next July will probably
have the pleasure of a ride on Long Island
Sound and a sight nt least of the Atlantic
Ocean beforo they reach tho Hub.
Mr. W. n. H. Smith, chairman of the com
mittee of '93. yesterday afternoon received a
letter from Mr. Josmh B. Wray. chairman of
tho New York City Endeavor Union trans
portation committee of '95, in which that
gentleman said tho New York delegates to
Boston would bo pleased to charter a big
sound steamer jointly with the local delegates
for tho ride f-om New York up the sound.
Tho minimum number of passengers would
bo COO, with tho privilege of carrying several
hundred more.
There is no doubt that tho idea will
meet the approval of every Endeavorer who
anticipates going to Boston. Tho fare will
be about tho samo as by rail. Mr. Smith is
enthusiastio over tho plan. Percy Foster
thinks it is a good thing. Aud as ho is chair
man of the local transportation committee of
'95 the New Yorkers' proposition will proba
bly be promptly accepted.
LIEUT. GEN. SCHOFIELD,

tenant general.
In Sheridan's case tho honor was bestowed
-on him while he lay upon his deathbed.
No move can be mado toward filling the
vacancies that will ensue intho grades of
major general aud brigadier general until
Gen. Scbofleld's nomination has been con
firmed, but already tho applicants aro coming
forward.
Gon. Sehofleld himself was unablo vester

BASKET-BALL LEAGUE.
C. A. C.
Wins n Game from "V. A.
Interesting Contest.
C
Tho unbeaten basket-ball team of Columbia
Athletic Club ndded another victory to its
string last night by defeating tho Washington
Athletic Club team by tho score of 8 to 0.
Tho contest was full of interest and oxcite
mont from the start to tho finish of tho threo
innings of fifteen minutes each, and was uoted
by tho largo aud ence and tho players tho
cleanest, best-played game of the whole series.
But three fouls were called oa plays that had
thosemblance of roughness, which was of the
excusable order.
C. A. C. played a scientific open passing
game, nud was especially lucky and nCcurato
in pass.ng for goal. Oue goal of tho phe
nomenal order was made by Hoakor from
center of field in one minute after tho Lull was
put in play.
Magoe, Wells, and Beall played brilliantly.
W. A.--C. was somewhat hampered in Its
otherwiso good playing by three substitutes
and was unlucky in passing for gual, tho
players thro vying wildly because of laoko.f in
terference. Sandorson, Briukloy. and Akers played a
noticeably good passing game.
Tho next game will be played on Saturday
evening in the Infantry Armory between tho
homo aad Carroll lustitute teams.
