Mr. I!auuig.irdner stated that the original reursa hail been somewhat changed and In atcail of go lug dlrectly out Orange stroet and encotiiiterliigasenoraud the street railway, It will be eiW laid by taking the new courae and will lie Xi feel higher than if run out Orange street. The resolution was adopted. Helc t council concurred. ttm (Juntleu of LlBlittue tha City. Mr. t.eng presented the report of the lamp committee, recommending the acceptance of the bid of thoTheinpsoiiit Housten company te light the clly with the 1,200 candle power light at te cents per lamp per night ; all rtarta 01 the clly net lighted with electricity te be lighted withgaa and gasoline at the prices itated in their bids, and the public buildings of the city te l lighted by the Lancaster Uas LlahtHnd Tuel cetnptny. The committee ft von s that It perleruied its duty sole! v w lth a low te the best Interests of the city, confining itself te the relatUe merits of ttectrle aystems, bocause of the almost universal demand of the taxpayers for finch a light. The grounds upon which the Thompson-Housten system Is recom mended are these : "At prlce new paid, vlr: 40 con la per lamp per night for 12.1 lamps for one year, would amount te $18,250. Fer the .10 cent lamp, ier same number of lamps for same time, would amount te il3,H7.fj0, making a (lltlerence saved, If adopted by the city, of J,E2.&0. Tills amount invested In 30 cent lights will place41 additional lamps. These lamps can se be placed as te displace 123 gas lamps, or a saving of gas of (.1,411. And should your honerablo Indies deem It ex pedient te further continue this method of :t0 nt IIkMs, this amount would further place aiiutttenai tamps, or n total or iiw lamps. Your committee saw the twelve hundred candle power lamp burn slde by side with the two thousand candle power and are fully satlKlled that it requires an expert te distin guish between Ihotwellghts. This system Is amongst but few that can suspend their lamps In the mlddle of the street, thoreby fialnlng Infinitely better results from the ghts. The parlies reproentlng this sy stem eel se confident of the steady and contin uous burning oftheir lampsduring theuight that they are willing te forfeit three times the cost of the lamp per nlpht Ter each and every witch lamp net burning. Klectrlciana em ployed by and representatives of ether sys tems have stated te your commlttee that the Thompson-Housten has the best are light In 1110 worm. Appended was a list or 1(Q illuminating companies operating Ireui :10 te G00 lamps, using this hystem. Vtu Tha ULcumIeu, Mr. f-'chum moved that the report of the 'oniuiitteo be laid ou the table. Mr. Heard asked the gentleman bis reasons ler Uying the report en the table. The chairman decided the motion net de batable, but as this was an important ques tien, 110 weuia permit ueuate. Mr. Hchum roplled that he had his own reasons for w Ublng this done. Mr. Heard said he thought all the members wero seeking light, and asked the gentleman whether he preferred te lie in the dark in this matter. The question being called the motion te lay the report en the table was carried by the following vote : Yeas Mews.

Ilare'i aujenduisnt, but bolere a Tete could be UksnMr. Bare arose and ald II this light iiuestlnn had net been fully dls cussed slnoe hut Docembcr, he would lie In favnr of referring It te the lamp committee. He believed, howevor, that the cnuncllmen have all the light they need ou the aubject and nothing could be gal nod by referring the matter te committee. The oeminlttoo had made their repert and council had net neon preper te adept thelr rocemmondatlon. The commlttee will be changed at the next rogu regu lar meeting, and he thought the question should be decided te-nlgbt. Mr. Heard said he would like a representn. tlvoeftho IMIseii company te mrerm him hew they propose te light the city hew many lamps they propose placing in a square, Permission being given Mr. W. - Hener, who was present, te explain, that gentleman Bld that the preposition or Mr. Mhaw covers the ground entirely. The company propose te light the entire illy according te the chart subtultled with thelr bid. Ue then explained the plan submitted and said that in addition te placing nil the lamps marked en the chart the company had 40 mere lamps te be placed wherever councils saw preper, and he would net hositate In premising that If these 40 ex tra lights are net sufllclent te thoroughly light the outside wards, twlce 40 lights will be nut up. Mr. Beard Dees the company proiieso te kuep the lamps In repalr at thelr own expeitBO, or will the city be compelled te de that T Mr. Soner We proposed te light the city, and in order te de that our lamps must bn In geed enler. Of ceurse we will keep tliem In repair at our own exonse. Mr. Hhlrk remarked that the Kdlsen com pany say If 40 rxtra lamps are net stilhclenl, they will glve the city SO, and aiked whother that preposition had been embodied in their bid, in black and white. Air. Ixing replied that the paragraph about the 40 additional lamps was in thelr bid, but nothing was In It concerning M) lights, in case 40 is net HiillW lent, Mr. Hhlrk asked whother the city would be compelled te pay extra for these additional lights. Mr. Hener replied that they would enlall no extra cost ou the city. The company had ollerod te light the eity for $20,000 and pro posed te de it. Mr. Heard was opposed te taking things for granted. He wanteil erythlng in writ ing. The cemiany new lighting the city premised te put In an extra dynamo, but they did net. They also premised te gi e us additional boiler capacity, but did net Mr. Ijeng said Mr. Hhaw in Ills bid enu merates the number of lamps his company will erect, but says nothing in referonce te putting up as many inore as are necessary te light the town. He was opposed te the 1MI mn light for the reason that It wa. demon strated at the recent exhibition held under the auspices el the Franklin lnstltute that the lamps iloterlerated in candle power. Ifthe question el economy Is te be considered, why net Uke gns, which certainly has mero ro re ro llectUe power than the Killsen light, Messrs. Kbcrman and Leng read several loiters from persens In towns whero the Cdl urn light was used, In which the writers said ttiev prelorreil gas te It ler lighting the streets. Mr. Heard had seen ttie Incandescent lamps t Itflrrisbtirij and West Uhester. It was a goeil Inside light, but did net give satisfac tion 0.1 the strcetA. Tliere were about thirty Uniw in the train shed at Harrlsburg, and lieilld net consider It well lighted He was Infaier of eloctrle light, and did net care which light the city adepts, but he wanted te obtain the best that could be obtained. He was afraid councils would make a mistake U they adopted the IMIsen light. Mr. Kvarts wes in favor of economy, as well as electricity, and the IMIsen is the cheapest light nllered us. We want an equal distribution el llcht. We don't waut the corners brilliantly Illuminated and the mid dle el the squares dark. The iieeple in the eutside wards want light, and this the Kdlsen company proposes te gie them. Mr. MiirK saui no was nappy te learn mat Heme of the councilman ham become se eco nomical. Tliev did net think se much el economy in December last, hewever, when the Maxim company put up thetr price. Mr. Mentzersald hobellovod money could be made for the city by delaying action en the question, and otlered as an amendment te the amendment or Mr. llare that the mat ter lie postpenod until a special meethig te lie held Wednesday evening, March IT.

All Fers New 1'rl.en, Hut line Man, This morning the state beard at charities held a Joint meeting at the County house, with the county; commissioners, prison In spectors and local beard or charities, for the purpo'eof examining the condition of the prison, with a vlew of ascertaining whether a new ene should be made. The following gentleman were present: Lewis 1'otersen, Pittsburg, Cndwalader Hid die and Philip C. Garrett, Philadelphia, and J. W. C.O'Neill,Oettysburg,ef thestAte beard; County Commissioners Myers, Ilartman and (llngrlch ; Prison Inspectors Carter, Weaver, Mlller, eilers, Martin nnd Nlssley, County Solicitor Hhenck, Prlsd Solicitor Kennedy, Koepor Ilurkheldcr, J. M. W. Oelst and Samuel II. Zalitn represented the local beard of charities. The party were taken through the prison by the keeper, and they made an examination of the entire building. About half-past 10 o'clock they met in the Inspectors room, where a formal meeting was held. Solicitor Kennedy slated that what they wanted principally was mero room, and they desired te knew the opinion of the beard upon It. The solicitor read the reports or the tne last grand Juries, recommending the building or a new prison along the Conestoga creek. m:eii r a Nnw rniseN. The members or the state beard all soemed te be or the same opinion, and that was that a new prison should be built en the county grounds. Tliore is no doubt that the present building Is two much crowded and at least twice the room Is needed : the present sys tem nt draluage is very bad and the building Is net properly heated. On the whole they thought it would be better te build a new prison en the grounds owned by the county; that would make it less expenslve than if new ground had te be purchased. If n new prison was erected new all the latest im provements could be made In regard te light, heat, security, etc., and it would be clicaper en the w hele for the county. The members of the dlflerent beards were asked for their opinions, Mr. Myers, presi dent of the beard of county commissioners, stated that slnce two grand Juries hive re commended a new piiseu, his beard has bo be f;an te think ever the matter. The beard, iew ever, seems te be divided en the ques tion, and the court is also said te be. what te de is new the question. As far as he was concerned he was net in favor el spending any mero money en the old prison by making u new wing or anything else. He would rather go te work at ence and erect a new prison en the Conestoga creek near the almsheuse. He thought that the members of the grand Juries, coming from dlilerent parts of the county, knew pretty well what the peonle wanted and two or theso bodies have already recommended a new prison. lnsjiecter Carter was opposed te putting mero oxpense en the old building and Hpoke favorably te a new one. He said thattuere were some folks In his neighborhood who were opposed te It while etheis lavered It. ItUMAUKS or mi: VISITORS. Mr. Hlddle, of the state lieard, thought Unit Lancaster, with Its reputation for Intelli gence, Ac, should have a geed prison, whi h it has net. He thought tliat our prison could net lie compared with then In some ether ceuuties or tlie state. Fer instatue he would take Schuylkill county. They have a tine prison, and Lancaster's Is nothing te it, Tliore was considerable talk ever the prison and the members of the state beard expressed themselv es v cry streugly in favor ofaliew prison. In speaking el the cost or llie proposed new miiiuiuganu tue unanctai condition of the county, Mr. Myers explained that the debt vv as $200,000. M r. Garrett said that the money could be easiiv borrowed at '1 per cent, te erect a new prison, and for as long a time as the county desired it. After sotne further talk the members of the state beard left and stated that they would glve their opinion In regard te the prison iu the annual report. Solicitor Kennedy thinks that they may be able te secure a special report en the subject. Tin: i.ecvt. neAitus. Afler the state beard had left the members of the local Isiards held a meeting, and each gentleman was asked te give fiis opinion. Mr. Myers said that be had given his opinion bofero and it was favorable te a new prison. He resides in the city and could euly speak for It. He belleved that nearly everybody In Lancaster Is faverable te a new prison He knows there are lioeplo opposed te it, but someof these would oppeso any improve ment. He was natistled that ir they waited ler every body te beceme favorable te it a new prison could never be built. Mr. Gingrich said the majority of the peo ple In his section or the county were opposed te bnlldiuga new prison at present. 1 1 some thing really had te be dene new, he himself would be lii favor el anew building, but he did net think the people of the county were ready ter It jet Ot the peeple he knew, who were opposed te it, some hive seen the condition of the old prison and ethers have net. Mr. Gingrich thought that labor is no J nliftannfiinitfllKin nt fint' nllmr" tlnw, lint litlN admits material is. Commissioner Ilartman thought that the peeple wanted a new prison. People from all pal ts or the county and In the city have spoken te him often and all want te knew why a new building is net erected. He thought it would be better for the county te Have tne prison en tuecreeK man nt us pres ent location for many reasons S. H. .ahm said that the local lieard or charities, of whkh he Is a member, had ro re ro ceinmouncd a new prison tliree .vears age; the present building is tee small, nud he thought it would be a sav ing te the county te eretta new ene en their own ground; seine-tlilnc- must lie dene at once. Inspector Mlller said that he had net heard much talk en the subject in Ills scojjeu (Maner) and was net prepared tn give the opinion of the people. Inspector Weav er thought no mere money should be spent en the old prison, and if any tiling is tn be done n new and substantial ene should le erected. Inspector Nlssley ravered a new building and biid tint asutaxpaver he was willing te pay hW share or additional tax for IU Of ceurse It Is Impossible in cot every ene favor able te It. Inspector .eilers was net in favor of Investing any mere menci en the present prison and favored n new one. Mr. Myers thought that the Increase of tax te make the new prison would net be much ever a hair mill. He believed that (100,000, tngetber with theprice of the ground en Kast King street would Dtiiiu iu tie ueuoveu in erecting a geed prison nud did net think the taxpayers would object te expending 5150, 000 ler lb Mr. Glngiic'i thought It would require (200,000 te de the work, and Mr. Hurkholder said that the odlmated costs or repairs made en the old building since its erection was K.0,000. Inspector Martin said that snine et ids peeple were opposed te a new prlseu and ethers lavorable te it. These who had neon the condition or the old favored a new ene. Mr. Myers in Hpcakiurref the objection some people have te a new prison, said that when the new almshouse was erected there was a great howl by some people. That was seen ever and the people are proud et the building. As fur as he was concerned he really would rather net build a prison vvhile he Is In efllce but II is necessary nud must be dene. We cannot wait until everybedy is satisfied. J. M.

TIIK catSKMt OVTRAQK.y What Impelled tha l're.lilent le Prepare a Me.iage en Them The Demand, of tha Imperial Kingdom. Washington, 0. C, March 1. The tVfc te-day publishes a celiltnu explanatory of the circumstances which led te the pro mulgation or the Chlnose message by the president The Investigation of Cel. Bee, consul general of China at Ban Francisce, Inte the Reck Springs massacre, convinced that officer that It wm a cruel outrage perpo perpe trated by wlilte men, whom he supposed le be Americans, upon an Ineflpnslve people. He se reported te his home government. His report was forwarded te the Imperlal Chinese legation here and transmitted te China through the proper official channels. The instructions the Chlncse minister re ceived from his government were startling. He was directed te demand from the United State the total disavowal of the atlair ; the condign punishment capitally If killing could be preved against individuals, and a pecuniary Indemnity te the sufferers for their losses, te be paid by the Unlted States. This was the ultimatum, ir the Unlted States refuse te comply with the demands, the presldent was te be informed that the Chi nese government would Immediately preceed te collect the Indemnity from American citi zens In buslness in the the Imperial territory and " withdraw Its protection from them," which meant that they would be notified te leave China at ence. Simultaneously with this, Information came te the state depart ment from a semi official source in Londen that the Marquis Tseng, Chinese ambassador te the courts of SL James and St. Cloud, was about te return home te take a high position In the Imperial council of state, and that he would insist upon stern measures being taken against the United States te mark its displeasure at the outrages which the Ameri can authorities permitted Its citizens te com mit against his people without any attempt being made te prevent them or punish these who openly avowed their participation in them. This was the situation when the presldent sent the message te Congress en Tuesday last. It will be seen that he denies the right of the Chinese government te demand an Indemnity for property dostnued. This is a point upon which the instructions at the imperial council te the minister here admit of ue concessions. It has been known for a month past that the Chinese minister here Is te return home very seen. It is learned that he will take with him the final conclusions or the president In regard te this matter. These are the simple facts, the Critic says, from undoubted authority, and they are given te the country as aids te the compre hension of the president's last message in its lull importance.

Unless there is a speedy settlement of the trouble in Texas, It is probable that the members of the order of the entire Gould sj stem will be called out. KxteuiUuj; Inte Missouri. Sr. Letus, Ma, March 4. The Texas rail road strike is about te extend te this state, nt least that Is the feeling, based en reports from dlilerent railroads centres in Missouri. The men are expecting It, and are only awaiting orders from Sedalia, the headquar ters of the Knights or Laber, te quit work. The complaint is that several empleyes have been discharged without any cause being as signed, which they claim is against the agreement entered into during the big strike a year age. The local railroad branch of the Knights or Laber met last night and discussed the situation and the reeling was that a general strike was imminent. The Gould reads here, the Missouri Pacific and the Iren Mountain, have issued orders te their agents te receive no freight for Texas points until further no tice, en account of the strike In Texas.
