The greatest harmony prevailed at
the. special city meeting which was
held last, night. in the Council Chamber
in Haviiand street, for the pbrpose of
appropriating sufficient money to con-
struct the sowar in Washington street.
whsrethe proposed vitrified brick is
going to, be laid, and also for the our
pose ’of appropriating sufficient money
for the betterment of the city's water
system. -
The sum of 814,500, which was voted
at a pmvioas city meeting for the sow-
er construction and repaying. was up.
proprlated without a dissenting voice.
. and although there was morediscussion
when the resolution came up for the
appropriation of 380,000'to improve the
water system. there was no one to op-
.poas the move in fact it was not
thought to be sufficient money to do
what the city ought to do in connection
with‘the water system. and it was pro-
posed. that 010,000 extra be appropriat-
ed for the same purpose. making it
$40,000 instead of 330.000. As the tax-
payers could not vote for any more
money than was called for in the reso-
lution, it was decided that 830,000 be
apppopriated. and that another city
meeting be called at some future time.

Commissioner Hatch answered that
it would take about 010.000 more.

came up. Mr. Salmons thought that it
would be a great mistake to lay vitri.

Commissioner. Nash stated that it
was an error in thinking that connec-
tions could not be made with vitrified
pips as well as with iron pipe. He said
that iron pipe was very much more ex-
pensive. ile thought there would be
nothing gained by using iron. lie was
not opposed to carrying the proposed
line down to the present system. ,
Mr. Solmans thought that the pres-
ent system should draw directifrom the
reservoir independently from the new
system.
it was then that Mr. Swarts cut the
discussion short by stating that the
taxpayers would have another oppor-
tunity to discuss the matter.
Ex~Ccuncllmsn John McMahon stab-
ed that he thought the price of the
iron above that of vitrified pipe would
be offset in the laying. He stated that
in some places vitrified pipe would have
to be sunk about fifteen feet. where, if
iron was used. it could be run over the
top of hills.
The same tellers passed ballots and
there were eighteen "yes" votes for the
resolution.

Ionara Present at the Hearing
This Morning—Reporters
Imod Out.
The trouble which has been brewing
for a long time between St Paul's par.
lab and the rector. Rev. J. Morris
Coerr. is being investigated today by
the standing committee of the Episco-
palian diocese, of Connecticut. which is
composed of the following members:
Rev. S. O. Seymour. D. 1).. Litchileld.
president; Rev. Samuel Hart. D. 1)..
Middletowu: Rev. William C. Andrews,
0. D.. Guiiford: Rev. John Binney. D.
D.. Middletown; Rev. George T. Lins-
ley. Newtown.
The days' proceedings were opened at
10 o'clock. by the celebration of the
Holy Eucharist. The rector. Rev. Mr.
cocrr. was the celebrant.» While the
tropism; 1 mmmmombvs
of t s a _ ug committee and the bis-
hop of the diocele, Right Rev. Chaun-
ce'y iii. Brewster. arrived and took seats
5in the pews with the rest of the congreh
gallon.
At ii o‘clock, the parishioners ad-
journed to the Sunday school room in
the basement of the church. and the
standing committee repaired to the
choir room, where they held a secret
conference, after which the session. in
the basement was begun. The attend-
ance was good. over seventy-five being
present during the morning session.
There was a disposition on the part
of the standing committee to exclude
everybody from this meeting. with the
exception of the officers of the church.
but Mr. Coerr demanded that every par-
ishlooer be admitted. as the matter in
question was one in which everyone of
them was concerned. By order of Bis-
hop Brewster. all reporters were bar-
red. and much against their will. they
took leave of the place. The rector. Mr.
Coerr. was very much in favor of hav-
ing the meeting as public as possible.
as he confidently believes himself to
be in the right.
it is expected that the developments
of the day. will be of a sensational char»
actor. and many predictions on the out-
mma are being made. Mr. Coerr has as
his legal adviser. Attorney .l. J. Walsh.
Before the session between the stand-
ing committee and the parishioners
opened Bishbp Brewster requested that
everyone present. who was not a mem-
ber of the parish wouldleave the room.
The business of the day was immod-
lateiy begun. and a letter from the ves-
try of the parish was ..read. and Mt.
Coerr stated his sidepofthc case. after
which all the time until the adjourn»
merit of 1:16 was passed by witnesses.
in picking both the letter and Mr.
Coerr’s testimony to please.
No interruptions were allowed while
the testimony on either side was being

and covered the ground so thoroughly
that there was not much occasion for
questions in the short discussion which
followed her address.
Mrs. A. S. Gibson sang “The Promis-

especially full report on this work in

where there was a perfectly organised

The evening session opened up by the

WINBTED. November 12—«Damage
by fire. smoke and water. estimated at
about 350.000 was caused this morning.
by. a fire which broke out shortly be-
fore 9 o'clock. on the stage of the Wln~
sted Opera House. The theatre was
gutted; storeslend offices in the struc-
ture were more or less damaged by. the
lam». while in the Wetmcre block-ad-
lacent. in which was located tthe main
» post office. the occupants suffered loss-
s entirely due to smoke and water.
he opera house is located in a four-
story brick structure at the corner of
Main and Elm streets. in the heart of
the borough. Adjacent to the east is a
similar four-story building —of brick,
known asthe Wotmore block.
Smoke was seen issuing from the
stage doors and windows shortly before
3 o‘clock this morning. and when at
(3:50. an alarm waarung. the homes
had gained good headway. A general
adiarm followed and the firemen soon
had seven streams of water flowing.
Shortly after the general alarm the are
deemed 'to take an alarming proportions
and at 9:30 it was feared that surround-
ing building would become ignited. and
a disastrous fire result. Shortly after
11 o‘clock, however. the lire was under
control. The theatre proper, as stated
above was gutted. The other tenants
in the opera house building. which is
owned by the Music Hall Company.
were: William ~l-‘l. Mills. drugglst; E.
.Persons. dry Goods; Baldwin t biof-
‘ ti. grocers; Harry Overton. harness-
maker. and three private odious. Mills

LETTER coo YEARS OLD.

PROVIDENCE. R. l.. November 12—-
A letter. 200 years old. from Captain
Kidd, the notorious pirate chief. to
John Bailey. Esq.. of New York. which,
from evidence contained in it. is be-
Iived to be genuine by those to whom
it has become an heirloom. has been
deposited for safe keeping. with other
papers. in the office of the record com-
missioners of this city.
The letter is the property of Edward
Field. clerk of the municipal court of
Providence. aud‘hlllnrisn. a descend
out of the Warner family. which was
among the Irst to settle in what is
now the town of Warwick. It was
found among family papers.
Apparently the communication was
written after the capture of Captain
Kidd. it is dated Boston, 170041. and
it says in part: '
“i fear we are in a bad situation: we
are taken for piratgi and you must
come to Boston be soon as you get

to make the capture assisted by Sher-
