QUAKER fV BIIIS, Mayor Ashbridge Starts into En force the Sabbath Observ ance Laws. HOW THINGS HAVE CHANGED Prltnnrlp* fnlli-d Wlilpli Will n»-*nlt In the I'nanlnc <>f Davlil Murtln From Control <»f tln» Phllndelphla City OrKniilxntlon. (Special Correspondence.) Philadelphia. Dec. 12—Having got tsn tliiough with entertaining the guests of the National Export exposi tion the Quaker City authorities are developing symptoms of reform pro clivities. Rigid regulations about the enforcement of the Sabbath laws went into effect last Sunday for the lirst time, and the director of public safety has been for the last week stirring up the police about lack of discipline anil the failure to keep the streets free from improper characters, who make a practice of accosting passers by, par ticularly strangers. During the progress of the exposi tion, which, by the way. was a great success, "everything went" in town, and blase New Yorkers found all they could do to keep up with the game. The exposition brought visitors from all parts of the country and many from abroad, and every species of entertain ment such as is afforded in continental cities was afforded. RACY MIDWAY SCENES. The scenes of the Midway were Quito as snappy as anything attempted at the World's fair, and it was not until the closing week that various organiza tions of church working women awak ened to what was going on in their very midst. Resolutions of protest against improper exhibitions then piled In upon the management, but the side show men had reaped their harvest, and the merry couche-couche wriggled out shekels from the visitors' pockets until the gates were finally closed and the exposition became a thing of the past. Now comes the retribution. Philadelphia is being treat«d to % reform wave. Pronunciamentos against all things evil are almost daily emanating from the city hall. Mayor Ashbridge and his director of public safety, Mr. Eng lish, are keeping the police on the go suppressing things which have been winked at, but which now must be suppressed. Street walkers have been practically driven from the heart of the town, and down among the children of the ghetto, where meat and provision stores were wide open and doing a rushing business all day long every Sunday they are now closed tight as a drum upon the Sabbath. Cigar deal ers were at first afraid they would come under the official ban and have to discontinue the sale of the weed and the big Sunday papers, but up to date they have not been disturbed. There is no telling what will happen later on. however, if the crusade for the strict observance of the Sabbath continues. The mayor has assured the commit tees of the Law and Order and other societies that he desires to enforce all the laws, and yet he does not wish to deprive the people of privileges which many believe they should enjoy He has certainly started out with evi dence of a determined purpose to rigid ly enforce the law. MAY GO TOO FAR. Many of the men active in public life fear that if the idea shall get abroad that Philadelphia is to be gov erned by what are known as the "blue laws" it will hurt the city from a busi ness standpoint. There is an agitation on at present to get the Republican na tional convention held here next year. A fund of nearly SIOO,OOO has been sub scribed for the expenses of the Repub lican national committee and the en tertainment of the delegates, should this city be selected as the meeting place for the convention. Arrange ments have been made to transform the Auditorium of the Export exposi tion into a great convention hall. Should Philadelphia be chosen thi.-s will be the first Republican national convention held in this city for 18 years. General Grant was nominated for a second term in the Quaker City. President McKinley has on many oc casions shown his appreciation of the cordial receptions he has gotten in this city, and on that account many be lieve that he may favor Philadelphia. Some of the party leaders, in view of the fact that the Democratic national convention is likely to be held in Kan sas City, feel that the Republicans should also take a western city, and for that reason they favor Chicago or Denver. The issue will be settled at a meeting of the national committee which will be held in Washington this week. There have been few happenings in local politics of importance during the last week outside of the meeting of the Republican city committee, which fixed •Tan. 9 as the date for the primary elec tions, and seated Magistrate Moore in place of John Dunn as the committee man from the Fourth ward. This is a victory for Israel W. Durham over David Martin. When Martin had Mayor Warwick at his back he ousted Durham's friend from this ward and putin one of his own followers. This was done regardless of the fact that (he voters of the ward were with Dur ham. Now, Martin's power on tho wane, thi voters took the matter in their own hands and recalled Dunn and elected Moore to his old place. A QUAY VICTORY. At the coming primaries delegates will be elected to conventions which will name delegates to the national and state conventions and to local conven tions which will nominate candidates for magistrates, councilmen, school di rectors and constables. Ward com mitteemen will also be chosen, who will name the new city committeemen. The new city committee will be in the hands of friends of Senator Quay. They have not been in control of the organ ization in this city for a long time Martin, when he and Quay parted, formed an anti-Quay combine, with Warwick and l'orter. What is left of this combine has gone over to the Insurgents. Its Influence In the Republican organization bu been lost. PENROSE'S LABORS SUCCESSFUL,. Senator Penrose was pleased this week to sen the results of his efforts to Improve the channel of the Delaware river and bay bear fruit. The report of Lieutenant Colonel G. J. Lydecker, Lieutenant Colonel C. W. Raymond and Major William H. Blx by, corps of engineers, appointed to examine the Delaware river, was sent to congress by the secretary of war. The amount of money required to obtain this channel of such dimension* as mentioned in the act is $5,810,000, an amount some $(!,000 less than the estimate of cost presented in the re port published in the document men tioned in the act. There are localities near the shore in the lower river and tipper part of the bay where a vast amount of dredged material could be deposited without doing any damage to the channel or hurting the fishing Industry. The board recommended the forma tion of an island opposite Reedy island by inclosing the area between Baker shoal and Stony Point shoal. The board is of the opinion that tho improvement of the channel should first be made where it will be of the greatest and most immediate benefit to navigation, and it accordingly recom mends that the expenditure now au thorized for improvement from Chris tian street, Philadelphia, be applied to the improvement from just above Stony Point to Elsingboro Point and to the construction of a part of the bulkhead required for the formation of the pro posed basin for the reception of the dredged material.
