LOCAL ITEMS.
A peculiar intrument put in an ap
pearance yesterday of significant
import. This took the form of a pe
tition which was then being circu
lated. The petition prays for the
abolition or curtailment of revenue
or position of City Attorney. The
.strangest part of the matter is that
no one appears to know who is res
ponsible for the instrument. It is
addressed to the Council.

WASHINGTON. D. C., April 13—
As an argument for conscription,
Secretary Baker announces that but
4300 men enlisted within the past
ten days, and with this number be
ing maintained, it would take six
years to raise an army of one mil
lion men according to the present
system of enlistments.
This leads directly to the vexed
question of enlistments, but the
whole question of conscription is
to be threshed out this coming
week in the House.
Commenting on the advices re
ceived from Dawson as to conditions
in the Arctic and the report of the
M’Pherson that a wreck, unknown,
was sighted, those acquainted with
the locality state that it is likely
that this is the wreck of the El
Sueno which went to pieces some
where around there about a year
ago. The effort of the Polar Bear
with Steffannson to reach through
to the Atlantic via the Northwest
passage will be watched with inter
est. He has a very staunch boat,
but hardly equipped for that voyage
as was the Kjoa.

It is as good as admitted that i

the policy of conscription as bound j
to come and batter come at once \
for that reason.
Its immediate adoption, it is be- !
lieved, will create less friction than I
later on.
