The Board of Aldermen of <lb/>
now have a query on <lb/>
hand that if not soon will <lb/>
rob them of sleep or turn them <lb/>
gray headed. The question is, <lb/>
what is erecting a house, and <lb/>
what is repairing a house T <lb/>
The trouble all came about <lb/>
this wise; There is an ordinance <lb/>
in the code of laws, based <lb/>
on a provision in the charter, pro- <lb/>
the erecting of a <lb/>
building within of Evans <lb/>
street between limits. In <lb/>
the recent lire, among the buildings <lb/>

to straddle this feet limit when <lb/>
it was The lire depart- <lb/>
with no malice aforethought, <lb/>
not knowing what trouble they <lb/>
were heaping up for somebody, <lb/>

part of the front are while <lb/>

is left of the front arc still there. <lb/>

parties. Another change is <lb/>

kings are allowed to exercise, <lb/>

It was also in keeping <lb/>

which baa grown to such <lb/>
magnitude under his Bret ad- <lb/>
I ministration as to stagger and <lb/>
frighten the conservative <lb/>
of the country, that more <lb/>
money should be spent upon his <lb/>
second inauguration than was ever <lb/>
spent upon the inauguration of <lb/>
other President. how much <lb/>
this inauguration has cost the pub- <lb/>
Treasury will never be known, <lb/>
but that it is an enormous sum <lb/>
anyone can see. Four companies <lb/>
of troops were brought <lb/>

and the regular troops from every <lb/>

Some wag started a story that <lb/>

line to his declared intention of <lb/>
pulling the Senate on record, Sen- <lb/>
Morgan, offered his Nicaragua <lb/>
Canal resolution, providing for ac- <lb/>
quiring the right of way as an <lb/>
amendment to the Sundry Civil <lb/>
Appropriation bill. It was kill- <lb/>
ed, as he expected it to lie. The <lb/>
vole was to Hi to the <lb/>
chair's ruling that the amendment <lb/>
was not in order. Thus ended the <lb/>
disreputable though successful <lb/>
light to prevent Nicaragua Canal <lb/>
legislation, which is overwhelm- <lb/>
favored by the people of this <lb/>
county, which the republicans <lb/>
pretend to favor to the extent of <lb/>
having had a bill passed by the <lb/>
House before the Presidential <lb/>
Senator Morgan cannot be <lb/>
blamed having naked to be re <lb/>
of the duties of Chairman of <lb/>
the Committee inter can <lb/>
and he never spoke truer <lb/>
words than when he <lb/>
republicans arc not friends of this <lb/>
canal and they know <lb/>

amendment to the Army <lb/>
hill, which heads off much <lb/>
contemplated looting by prevent- <lb/>
the granting of long time <lb/>
and the disposal of public <lb/>
land- In the islands, but he did <lb/>
not to veto the bill on account <lb/>
of the amendment, as that would <lb/>
have been a dead give away, show- <lb/>
his disappointment because <lb/>
the whole looting could <lb/>
not lie carried out. <lb/>
The Senate Cuban investigation <lb/>
cast about and amounted <lb/>
to nothing. The report of <lb/>
farther investigation <lb/>
is unnecessary, the frauds <lb/>
are now being handled by the Cu- <lb/>
ban Courts. It is understood that <lb/>
several prominent republicans felt <lb/>
very much relieved when the report <lb/>
was announced, owing to their <lb/>
knowledge that any real invest i- <lb/>
would make things very <lb/>
