A Uemoutod Woman Throws Stones a.t Kficr Bracnora, Margaret Cullin, a demented young woman living at Clarenaevllle, made a desperate attempt at suicide Wednesday afternoon. The woman ran from home and attempted to throw herself in front of a passing train. Her motive was apparent to two young women residing near by and by a desperate effort they succeeded in heading her off by getting between the woman and the railroad traok. Thwarted in her plans for self destruction, the woman became frantic and began to throw stones at the other women. Officer Hugh J.

Swift came along and arrested her. She was locked up in the Jamaica town hall. An examination will be held with a view of sending the woman to an asylum. IMISO KVKSTS The Navy club will go on its first annual excursion Thursday, September 6. The boat will leave the Bridge dock, at 10 A.

Corrcapoiidei 'l'et Ttacm by De. partmcnt Bcporttu To th Editor of the hrooWvn Eaale: July 23, under a programme whioh now De glns to explain itsolf, at a special meeting of the board of aldermen, culled by the mayor, authority was given, reluctantly, under great prossur6, to tho commissioner of city works, to.

make contracts for an additional supply, limited to $750, 000. It had been, for some time, understood that this was to be a driven well supply, and tho probaDlo oontrnctor was also understood. Unfortunately the historical monopoly was broken by unexpected bids, under tbe "cut and dried notice iBsucd tho next day; although the commissioner adopted tho extraordinary plan, net only ot compelling every bidder to show his baud, at once, so as to be sized up; but also, outllnnd such conditions of proposal, that by one consent the prominent city contractors refused to bid. One of them in fact, goes so far as to say (Eagle, August 19): The specifications drawn by your'uepartment area positive bar against honest or Intelligent competition." Another (August 17, Eagle), says: To oomply with section 3 of the proposal, a thorough examination of tbe land between Bookvllle Center and Maa sapequa, south of tho existing conduit, is essential to determine the definite water supply. I am of the opinion that no one can pro Mtne to determine suoh oosltive knowledge as to decide exaat location for plant, produce de tails ana run speculations within tho tlmo limit, a fortnight." This means that no one outside of the circle could safely or Intelligently bid.

But the proponont makes an offer which becomes significant in view of the commissioner's reoent action, to give the work, as contractor, his personal attention, with the use of his patents, for "7 per cent on the net cost of the entire work." Messrs. Andrews, underbidden at the start. oame to tbe front, August 28, with the commissioner's announcement of a toviuk commission granted them, under contract, "on the basis of oost of materials and labor, with 15 per cent, added, for the contractor's tools, experience, and superintendence," and, It Is further announced that "the first additions will bo made at Jamaica park station, where it Is probable thai tbe wells will bo sunk to a depth of 100 feet; and wo hope for upward of 2,000,000 gallons of added daily supply, at a cost not ex. oeedinc S10.000."' The commissioner, then, in the zeal whioh he shares with his engineers to force city waste sun ueyona its present rate, has authorized tho Andrawses to boro at Jamaica park for at least two additional millions supply per aay. suppose tnen we use tlie department reports, as Commissioner White eurnly does, to determine the value of this station in the economy ot driven well history.

The reports need no comment on all of the Issubb Report for 1888, p. gut): "Tho station (belmv Laisleys pond, Jamaica reservoir) is nenrly completed reudy for pmnpius ami will probably add not less than 0.000.000 gallons per day to the water supdIj while thu saving of water of Baisley's pond, now pnmped by th enKiiies at this station into the reservoir, whioh has for snmo time past run to waste over the weir, will ndd not less thtm 3,000.000 more." Commissioner J. P. Adams. Page 29 "This station will yield 6,000,000 of gallons from the wells and 3,000,000 of itallnnR from the pond.

The waste weir nt this pond was not hicli crioueh to permit of our currying over 48.000,000 Bullous in the main oouduit without tho water setting back into the pond and wasting over the dam. It vru necessary therefore to raise the dam of the pond and increase the pondage area, or to pump the water into the main couduit and cut ntf tne pond oonpeetion. If we had raised the dam and depth of water in the pond we of course would have lessened tho supply of water and would have been forced to buv a laree amount of land that would be Cooiled. I therefore decided to havo tbe water pumped and to make one pumping station for the wells and the pond water." Ctiief Engineer Van Buron. Report for 1889.

page 15: "About one liair of our supply to day. in times of drought, cmues from theaa well plants. In other words, ws havi necurvd from the old water about 24,000,000 daily st a cost of about Sl.200,000." Chief Enginoer Van Buren. This is 450.000 per million per day. Rei dtt for 1890, psge 22: "The supply in past years from Baiseley's pond was vory small, owinc to tha water in the main conduit, whon runine at 50,000,000 gallons daily, foraing back the pond delivery.

Since the pond delivery has been pumued we get a supply of nearly 6.000,000 per day." Paife 37: "Before thiB station was built, we lost an enormous amount of water from tho fact tlial the (aqueduct) water backed up into Baisley's pond, overflowrd the weir and went to the sea, and was a loss to our supply." "This has been obviated, as a bulkhead wns built in the conduit connecting this pond with tlio main conduit." The brilliant feat of hydraulic engineering, 1 0 givo poor Mr. Andrews fat contract, Is thus ofiloially presented for the education all interested students. There was a driven well station built Immediately below the dam of Jarunloa reservoir. This reservoir (formerly AJiiisiey ponu; is one oi tne lowest of tne six formed under the original oontrant. It hns a drainage basin of 10.88 square miles, with a total daily main outflow of about thirteen million Kalloas per day.

It was very carefully gaugud by Mr. MoAIplne in November, 1851, flowing at tho dam (,233,172 gallons, and in October, tho lowest month, flowing 5,280,000 gallons (Rept. MoAIplne, 1852, p. 117). When the pumping engines were tested in 1850 and 1860, up to over fifteen millions per day, this was the only pond In use for supply and was easily managed so as to maintain the tests.

It has pleased the department engineers to rate it at gallons, but only fow days ago they were obliged to confess to Mr. Whiles they never had made a gauge of Pine creek or any other stream in use. The aqueduct, from Bidgewood engine home to Baisley's creok, 4.848 mile;) Is 10 feet wide capable, nt 5 feet depth, of flowing about 70,1 000,000 gallons per day. At the present city consumption of about 0.000,000. if tho 48 inch pine carries 20, as claimed, the How is 60.

Now the aqueduct fleor, at this junction, is 5.33 feet below the waste wier of Jamaica reservoir, and with abutments 4 feet abovo the wler, flash boards could easily have been set. to raise the flow line; and yet. the branch conduit is actually bulkheaded off, go that not a gallon flows into the aqueduct by gravity, thongh nt least 6,000,000 would flow, ifthe'damwas propony filled at a small expense, and Mr. Andrews has been paid per for no report daren tell how many millions per day: while other outlays have swelled tho sum, as It appears, to per million, and la addition, ever slnoo June, 1890, the city has boen paying an extravagent sum to suck the water out of the pond into steam pumps and redeliver it to the aqueduct. But Commissioner White Is proud of his en gineering ability, and a man proverbially charitable, so he irocs tho engineers 2.000.COO bettnr and gives Andrews 15 per cent, where a far Deuer constructor oaers to do it for 7c.

In 1892 It cost for this pumping to deliver a gulped at, and never muasured, mean of 7,048,470 gallons per day, $4,350.25 for salarios, 612,019.42 for supplies and for about 808 net tons of coal, not less than $5,660, a respectnble total of about $22,038. bcicause the department enginosrs are not to bo committed to the ubsurdity of running a supply down hill! There is another Interesting chapter in this history forthe Brooklyn lamb, who is "dumb before his shearers." In 1890, making 158.3 days actual time, this station is credited with 11,832,600 gallons per day pumped; while another station on tbe same creok, pumping 332.23 days, has 2.101,300 callous per day. In 1802 this station has, for 335 days, 7.143.470 gallons each; the lower station, 2,10.200 gallons. Whon Andrews is being settlod with, a surprisingly large yield and a wonderful comment on the capacity of the stream! This makes the following language instructive: Report for 1888, page 0 The expense of running these (weil) stations is lanre und where tho quantity pumped is only two or throe millions of gallons a duy, the salary account is very lare. I desire to abandon one or two puinpini: stations on the old water shed, or el" t.

increase the supply of onch oue to not less than 3.000,000 per dny. Bearing in mind that for several months in tho year we do not have to pump full time, tho salary uocount becomes important. CITIZEN. Brooklyn, August 30. 1894.

ItKKD's BOOM Kit A NO. 7o thr Editor or the Hrooklvn Itrrgrp; I have read Tom Reed's roview of congress, etc. His tritlcisms seem to me to apply to the acts of protectionists genorally, and especially to obstructionist "Republican Democrats." and to entirely evade the real policy of the administration. There Is much truth in what he says when correctly applied to his own kind. The pledges of the Domoorats, the plans of tho administration and tho expectations of the people have all been moro or less frustrated by tbe nets of protectionists.

First, by tlio Republican protectionists leaving an ompty trfias ury, making unexpected and unwelcome measures necessary to avoid government bankruptcy. Secondly, by tho faithless acts of Democrats (so oaliod) in doing tho enemy's woric in their own eamp and for which they reeeived tho warm congratulations of the rankest Republican protectionists. It strikes me that Mr. Reed is handling boomerang. WALTER CABR, Brooklyn, August 80, 1391.

During the past year sbmo of the subordi nate lodges in Now York and Brooklyn have I seen disciplined because of their persistont violation oi tne ruio against oancing in lodge rooms on lodgo nights or under lodge auspices. The order prohibits this because of the conten! tioas it pursuit introduces.

NEWTOWV CKEKK. A not tier Plan (or Cleiiiibliifr It and Deslraiin; Its Odors. To Hie Knttnr or the Itrtiokluii. Kwlr Many thanks for your vory prompt and most excellent response to my note ot tho 25tb inst. I might havo said at the tlmo that there was another and vory much cheaper way ot ventilating Newtown eronk, as well as Gowanus canal, and that is by the establishment at tho Etit river of vory powerful pumps that would throw a constant Btroam inlo the top or head of tbo canal or creek.

This would cost not more than 8100,000 for tho plant of pumps and pipes. It would, however, involve a constant and annual outlay of 10,000 or 8 15.000. In a talk I had with Mr. Stranahan about two yoars ng, ho thought tidal circulation would bo much tlio best, as that would bo entirely self acting. As to the cost, would It not be prrper to levy an assessment on the property bordering on the oannl for Ihe whole or at least part of tha cest It certainly would ndd Inrgely to the value of tho property far more than the cost of tho improvement.

It would be an easy matter for any ol the city engineers to mnka survey and estimate of tho cost, and it ought to bo done as to the canal. W. J. CBEAJ1EB. Brooklyn, August 28, 1894.

Eastern District Tailors Wi: Quit Their Worlt Three Unions of Rweat Employes to Go Ont and Others Are Likely to Follow. Reason Why the Garment Workers Are Dls satlffl.i!d. The disaffected Journeymen tailors of the eastern district who are victims of the Bweat shop system h51d a meeting last night and resolved to enforce their demand for a change by striking and to night some fifteen hundred or more of them will quit work, not to go back, they say, until the contractors agree to the proposed changes. This decision was reached only after a lengthy debate. A secret ballot was had to decide the matter.

The vote to strike was about, ten to one against and it will have the effect of closing almost every tailoring shop in Dutchtown and probably throughout the city soon after. The meeting last night was held in Bauer's Union Saenger hall, on the corner of Ewen and Meserole streets, 'and was composed of the members of Local Unions Noa. 27. 66, and 83, of the United Garment Workers' union of America. There were about throe hundred and fifty men present and fifty more women and girls, all of whom were members of the union.

The proceedings were conducted entirely In the dialect spoken among the Dutchtown tailors, which is sometimes known as Jehudls, pronounced Yahooda, and was utterly unintelligible to the half dozen news paper reporters who, by some mistake, were admitted to the hall during the first part of the meeting. The only thing said that the re porters could understand was the speech, made in excellent by Charles F. Kelchers, general secretary of the United Garment Workers. It was short and very much to the point and directed to the listening scribes and was to the effect that their further presence in the hall was not desired. Mr.

Relchers was very polite in extending this invitation to get out and sent a young man out who said he could tell all about what was going; to be done. This was Mr. Henry White of the Amalgamated Clothing Cut ters, and he told what the grievances of the tailors were, substantially as related in yesterday's Eagle. Before the reporters were excluded from the meeting two speeches had been made beside the opening address of the chairman, whose name was Isaac Walman. The orators were Morlx Alexander and Louis Grossman.

Alexander in his speech compared the lot of Journeymen tailors who work in sweat shops with other kinds of labor, and he said that they were the vlotims of tho worst form of Industrial slavery in the country. He spoke of the hardship of necessity that women and children should have to work, and told how there was absolutely no let up, but from daylight to long after dark the buzz of the machines and the clanking thud of the smoothing irons could be heard throughout the district where the sweat shops abound. He seemed to find an echo In the minds of his hearers, and they applauded him liberally. They also applauded the next speaker, Louis Grossman. Once only he relapsed into English, and the reporters with reviving hopes picked up their pencils only to be disappointed, as the speaker went back to the Jehudls dialect.

His remark In English was about the laok of all sanitary arrangements in the sweat shops, and the positive danger it was to work in them. In the latter end of his speech he Bpoko of Ward McAllister's name, and a very much be wbiskered looking individual told the reporter that Grossman said that if they had their rights and were paid fair wages they could all live like the leader of the 400. When Grossman had finished Secretary Reichers made his speech in English, asking the reporters to step outside and from the ante room where they betook themselves they could hear the sound of speech making and applause for another hour. Then a secret ballot was taken on the question of striking, little pieces of paper being distributed on which were written either "Yes" or "No" in the Jehudls dialect. It was nearly 12 o'clock when this vote was taken and counted and It was found that out of 375 votes cast only 30 were recorded against the proposition.

The result was hailed with cheers and the crowd speedily melted away. The action taken last night only binds the members of the three local unions, but there is not much doubt that the local unions In Brownsville, whore there are two, will take similar action. it ia thought the tailors in New York, Jersey City and Philadelphia will follow suit and if this occurs the members of the executive board of the garment workers say they can surely win. Just now is the busiest season in the trade, as the winter stock of clothing is being made up and the contractors cannot afford to have their men remain Idle long. An object lesson of one of the evils the tailors are striking against was furnished last night by Mr.

Young. He said that actually half the members of the union could not attend last night's meeting because they were still at work on their day's task. It was then 10 o'clock and he said they went to work at daylight. The sweat shop system Is briefly this: Each man is required to do a certain amount of work in a day, but the amount is so large he cannot do it In less that twenty four hours. The men are paid by the week and are supposed to be paid about $18 a week for six days' labor, that Is If they have dona the required work for each day, or In other words, if they have worked twenty four hours each day for a week they receive their full weekly wage.

As a matter of fact, the average number of days each man is credited with Is about three. Sometimes by working far into the night he can do the required stint for four days labor, but this 1b not very often. There will be no formal demand made upon the contractors for a change to day. The men and women will simply stop work a little earlier, which the always do on the eve of the Jewish Sabbath, and will not go to work again Sunday morning as usual. It is probable that a meeting will be held by the Brownsville tailors to night to discuss the advisability of taking similar action.

Tho Thomas Hall association cake walk, held last night nt O'Connor's Empire garden, wns the bon ton colored affair of the Coney Island season. But it was not all plnln sailing and unalloyed pleasure.

Early In tne evening th leader of the orchestra showed signs of ap pronahlgg Inebriation and the management warned bim to drink no more. This aroused his righteous indignation and he promptly struck, walking out of the place with all bis musicians. Then thoy woro in a fix, for a calo walk without music would be worse than a clam chowder without clams. Emissaries wore dispatched in all directions looking for moro music, and eventually succecdod In finding a fiddler and a pianist, but no drummer could be found. Finally young GrilTo was prsV vailed upon to accept this highly responsible position, and for tho rest of the evening bo pounded both snare und base drum with an much vigor as he pounded McAuliffe a few days since.

There was enly one trouble with tha music, and that was that young Grlffo evinced a decided tendency to go off at a tangent and tako the leadership of tho orchestra into his own hands occasionally, making such minca meat of time, that the dancers were frequently mixed up in an inextricable tangle, as they frantically tried to catch on again. "'Ere, you bloomin' llddler," he cried out several times, "why. don't yer learn ow to play. I cawnt toiler you." "Ve're tnkin' desperate ohawncos with that planer, me was the way he addressed the pianist once when he tried to show him how to Slay. "I'm makin' more music on this here arrel than the whole bloomin' lot of you." Tha two musicians were afraid to say a word.

It was post daylight when the festivities wero Dually couoluqed, and the colored contingent dispersed, not to go to bod, but straight to work. ce.iu:;t hagazi.ne.

Frederick Wilbert Stokes doscrlbes and illustrates In "Color at tho Far North" the scenery there as observed by him while accompanying tho Peary relief expedition.

It certainly has its beauties. Josioh Flynt or the person who has so long followed tramping not" bocause impecunious or unable to write brightly and profitably but as student of that irresponsible species of oxistenco writes in his usual clover way of what should bo done with the tramp.

But tho public it the great tramp maker, Mr. Flynt thinks, by its indulgence to these professional beggars, who eould alwnys keep from want it they wanted to work.

DID THE APE TRY. TO C031M1T SUICIDE? KoUo Gets Hi mac Into Trouble Again at oucy Island. Koko, the big ape at the London zoo, Coney Island, who bit Trainer Paronl in the arm day before yosterday, got into mischief again yesterday aftornoon. As ho was boing transferred from ono cage to another ho managed to escape unci ran down under the old iron pier. From thero he worked his way alonir the stanchions until ho was far out ovar the wuter, then he let go his hold and fell into the ocean.

By this timo a crowd of thirty or forty people were in hot pursuit. Life Saver Aiflo Girard saw him drop into tho sea and put off to tho rescue in a life bont, into whioh he maaaged lo pud tho half drowned creature, which seemed to be makiuu every effort to commit suicido. When half way to shore Koko reoovored sufficient strength to again throw himsoif overboard. Nero, the big Newfoundland life saving dog, sprang to tho rescue, but Koko would not have it and bit the dog severoly on the nose, driving him ashore. Whi nearly exhausted Girard succoeded in again gotting him in the boat and eventually laudod him in a drowning condition on the shore.

Ambulanco Surgeon Pierce, who happened to be near at hand, took tho npo in hand and started to resuscitate him. Alter half an hour'a work ho succeeded, so that when Koko awoke to the eonelousuoss of his surroundiugs he lound htmsoll back iu his cage again. BRuOKI.YMTkS ECKXKD OUT.

SEW TOKK aCABKMTOF MTJSIC. Bronion Howard's "Shenanaoah" has been placed upon the Btage of this theater with the apparent intention that it ihonld remain there all winter. The reception which It reoeived last night must have been gratifying both to the author and to the manager, ir. Howard, before the curtain, expressed his appreciation of the approval which the audience gave to hit work. Ho aald that a large part of the success of the performance was due to the liberality of the manager and to the still of the man in obarge of the stage.

Without belittling the play itself it may be admitted that there was considerable truth in Mr. Howard's statement. The of the Academy Js large ana it offers excellent opportunities for spectacular effect. Advantage was taken of this opportunity for the introduction of a multitude of people and a score or more of horses In the battle scene. The Union army slowly retreating, the halt ana a renewal of the attack on the enemy whan Sheridan rode by on his iiorso and the triumphant ohetsr when dofeat was changed to victory aroused the enthusiasm of the audience to tbn highest pitch.

E. J. Hatoliffe as Eerobival West and Odette Tyler as Gartrude Islllnghatn received a laree share of the applause bestowed on the players. Josephine Hall, Alice Haslam, Joseph Brennan and Brace Meltea were satisfactory. CAPTA1S CLAYTON'S SON BITTEN BY A DOG.
