Captain Dravo Loses His Fight iu the Chamber of Commerce. HIS PLEA FOE HOME INTERESTS. V. S. District lttornej Lyon Explains His Position Clearly. THE PECULIAE POSITION OF BOATMEN The manufacturers wiped up the floor with the rivennea in the, Chamber of Com merce yesterday. It was one of the liveli est meetings the Chamber has ever held. The fight was all on Captain Dravo's water way resolution. He wanted the Cham ber to indorse section 4 of the pend ing river and harbor bill, which, pives to anyone the right to make informations in the TJnitid States Court against the persons who infringe on the waterways. It narrowed down to a contest between the manufacturers and the river men. United States District Attorney "Walter Iryon also took a hand and the rivermen were whipped. It had been insinuated that if the Dis trict Attorney had been more watchful the rivermen would have no cause for com plaint. He showed up during the discus sion and made a few remarks about the people in the Chamber. Captain Dravo and Captain Batchelor submitted their report. Colonel Roberts had refused to sign it The report called for a better protection of the waterways acd requested that the Chamber instruct the Pennsylvania representatives in Con gress to see that this section be retained in the bill. The section reads: The Bone or Contention. That any person or persons, corporation or company obstructing a harbor or navi gable waterway of the United States con trary to the provisions of the act of Congress entitled "an act making appropriations for the constmction, repair and preservation of wrrnin -nubile works on rivers and har bors and for other purposes," approved Sep tember 19, 1S91, may be prosecuted or enjoined on the complaint or bill of any private indi vidual or corporation feeling aggrieved by such obstruction, in the United States Cir cuit or district courts bavins Jurisdiction thereof in the name of the United States. Provided, that no nolle prosequi shall be en tered on any indictment for such offense w ithout tLo order of the court. When a motion was made to pass this re port Captain Dravo spoke as follows: The purpose of this report alters no law or proposes no change of legal processes. Against this simple proposition my esteemed fnend 31 r. Hicketson, at our last meeting, made a most unwarranted speech, in hich he Is repoitedas saying that rivermen re spected no person's right but their own. n hen and where have rivermen infringed or disregarded the rights of others? Have they obstructed any of the highways or trade or trai e'T Ha e they interfered with the operators of railroads? Are railroad trains compelled to "tie up" at nUbt In conso qupnee of anything rivermen have done? lia e rivermen made it more costly to opet aie manufacturing plants or railroads? Have mermen appropriated public lands for pnvito use? What single right of the pub lic or of individuals have livirmen violated crdisregaidcd? Itotone. Where the Itlver Men Scffir. Tet river men have suffered all of these hindrances in can-jing on their trade in consequence of the doings of others. The rivers, which they occupied for the use of the public before railways were built, have been rendered dangerous and their use costly, by theoccupation of the beds of the river for mill sites, for the construction of railways and the channels narrowed and madedangeionsby the dumping of cinders and other refute material, limiting the ca pacity of the rivers for floods and ice break-ups. Kiver traffic has been seriously damaged bv the erection of faulty bridges with insufficient headway, badly located piers, with restricted channel ways, making it costly and dangerous to pass these ob structions and nearly Impossible to hold l iver crafts during floods or ice break-ups. Asaiesult of these trespasses upon river lights our steamers have to tie up at night. increasing ine cost oi transportation anu causing the loss of valuable time. In con sequence of narrow channel ways it has be come necessary to employ, at heavy cost, steamers to break the ice on the rivers when frozen over to make it possible to save crafts mooted along the shore. And as a further consequence of the numerous bridge piers and narrow bridge channels, it has become necessary to send out tows, to employ a second steamer as a helper to pass artificial obstructions between Pittsburg and" Beaver and then on retching Stenbenville to tie up forthe night. Thus river men are compelled to pay tribute to all of these obstructions by largelv increased cost of navigation. The Pittsburg and LakeEiie depot is lo cated w here boats were formerly anchored for safety in times or floods. Nearby its en tire road-bed within the city limits ocenpies territory which belongs to the river and is a necessity for the safe passage or floods and ice gorges. The fllling-up work is still going on dangerously going on. The debris from the city is being dnmped into the river fill ing up the channel to the serious detriment of river commerce, and yet river men must not complain or move in the defense of tbe'e great highways which a beneficial Provi dence furnished for the use of the people. Regrets the Chamber's Antagonism. Captain Dravo again referred to the speech of Mr. Bicketson at a previous meet ing and denied that the act gave an alder-, man the power to eniorce the provisions of the act, and then concluded by saying: Allow me to submit that in seeking the in dorsement of section 1 by this Chamoer, I did not attempt by Indirection what I was not willing to challenge the utmost scrutiny. The privilege conferred by the said section 13 so manifestly American and proper that I confess profound astonishment that the slightest opposition was developed. I deeply regret that there exists In this Chamber an uncovered, though occasionally coming to the front, antagonism to immedi ate home navigable interests, My own per sonal experience is in proof that he who earnestly espouses the cause of free and un obstructed navigable rights will meet open as well as secret opposition. The delivery of the Chamber in iavor of water Interests at distant points is not hard to secure, but the Chamber is very chary on home matters where doubtful claims and equally doubtful rights may be affected. United States District Attorney Lyon was present and at the invitation of President Kelly gave to the board his legal opinion of section 4 of the river and harbor bill. He said: Sir. Lyon Makes hd Explanation. It is a step toward striking down an old and well established policy of the Govern ment. There is no such thing as a private prosecutor in the United States Courts, and for this reason it is impossible to have I grafted such a section in an act of Congress. But, conceding that Congress might adopt the section, the question it., Is it a necessity? There is no doubt nut that valuable river land is appropriated Jor manufacturing bites, and I suggested to Colonel Merrell, snme j ears ago, that there ought to be an act ot Congress fixing harbor lines. Subsequently such an act was passed, and it was made as sweeping and as strong as it is possible to draw an act. It gives the United States courts equitable jurisdiction in navigation obstructions and provides a fine and Imprisonment for violations of the net. In all violations reported to my office the law has been put promptly Into force and violations stopped. Mr. Lyon then enumerated about a scote of prosecutions which he had instituted and pushed to convictions. Among these were the firms of Jones & Laughlin, the Oliver & Roberts Wire Company, the Baltimore and Ohio Kail road, the Western Pennsyl vania Exposition Society and Stolzenbach & PheiL He said that he had tried to do his duty in the matter, 'and had never dis regarded a single complaint from any one who thought himself aggrieved. Iron Men Opposed to It. Mr. Quincy, of Jones & Loughling spoke against the measure, and cited the immense capital involved in manufacturing as compared with the river Industries as an argument. Col. Boberts followed in the same strain and said it was not right for the United States to say how people shall dump dirt. He believed cities and boroughs should have a right to make wharves, etc., as they please. Eenben Miller said the Idea oi the act was wrong, because it would allow 50 or 100 people to make informations against some one againBt whom they had a grudge and thus ruin him. He said there was power enough now to keep the waterways clear. Mr. Foster did not think Mr. Lyon's ex planation was sufficient. He said the State had passed an act in 1858 fixing high and low water lines. If these were fixed Pitts burg would get along all right The motion onMr. Dravo's resolution was put and lost A. resolution was adopted instructing the Biver and Harbor Commit tee to look up the law of 1858, and find out what recourse is provided lor the river men to take. ATTACKING THE WILL The Contest or Alexander B. Miller!

More Ladles Would Be Bright, Attractive and Happy If They Followed the Adviee of Dr. Eleanor F. Newton Her Charm ing Little Daughter. - I have often wondered In my journeying! about the city, both for information and business, writes a woman reporter in the New York Tribune, why it is I see so many ladles, otherwise beautiful, who hare had complexions, parched lips, sunken eyes and a general appearance of wearlneai. I presume many others have wonflered at this, as I do, but perhaps all have not been so fortunate as I have been to have a conversation with an intelli gent lady physician, who explained to me many things which I did not know before. Dr. Eleanor F. Newton resides at No. 711 Lex ington avenue. In addition to her intelligence she has an admirable frankness, as will be seen by the conversation which follows: I believe." said Mrs. Kewton in answer to my question, "that the great cause of the troubles of ladles at the present day is nervousness. It is at tributed to the Tapld life New Yorkers live. One cannot but notice it among any elevated carload of passengers dally. Ladles who are nervous will not sleep well, cannot eat well. This gives them the haggard, worn appearance, which. If con tinued too long, will end in breaking down. "And what can be done when such a state of things exists I" I inquired. "I advise care and caution, and prescribe that which is bjt for their condition." "If I follow you correctly, "what curative agent do you regard as the best?" "I prescribe Fame's celery compound, as does mT husband, in connection with other medi cines." "Ton regard it as valuable?" "It is lovely positively lovely, in its effects. It Is a gentle alterative and a .sedative of the first rank. Celery of itself is little less palatable than this remedy, and I regard the compounding of It as one of the happiest discoveries of this age. " 'Is it used extensively" "Bemarkably so; I have two patients now who are using it and with the utmost satisfaction to themselves, to their friends and To me. ' ' Mrs. Newton Is not only a skilled physician, but the mother of a charming little daughter, who is a pupil in the Fifth Ave. Baptist Church Sun day school, under the tutorship of John D. Rocke feller's daughter. She speaks In the highest terms of Mr. Bockefeller as a gentleman who does a won derful amount of good with his wealth. But it was plain to be seen that she regards the discovery of Falne's celery compound as having rendered a greater service to the world and the cause of humanity than was ever rendered oy the most benevolent millionaire who ever lived.
