STREET RAILROADS. An effort has been made by the Board to re- ire the Washington and Georgetown ratiroad mpany to conform their track to the grad i plan ot improvement of Pennsylvania ave- | eTS0 to fhe the material adopted for the etreets which they traverse. This was resisted by the railroad company, and the matter having been carried to the courts, the decision was in their favor. It is hoped a law may be passed requiring ail rail- road companies to conform to such regulations \n Feepect to pavements and grades as apply to the streets on which their tracks are located. The Board bavye requested street railroad companies whose oharters require their ulti- mate extension into streets and avenues in course of improvement, to place the timbers for their tracks before the pavements should be laid. This request, intended to prevent the ne- cessity of tearing upstreets when tracks were to be laid, has been complied with. The ‘grades of Ist street west and Maryland avenue having been changed, the company controlling the Washington and Alexandria railroad were requested to conform their track thereto, and ample time was afforded for that purpose. No attention having been given to this notification, the Board were compelled to remove the track on these streets, as they were about being paved. It is recommended that where steam railways are given the right to traverse streets or avenues of the city, they be restricted to laying two tracks on any street, and that they be required der the supervision or the Board of Public rks, to enclose them by a substantial ornamental fence between the intersections of streets; also; that when trains are moving, they be required to keep each street crossing, and to lay fiat raiison all reets and avenues of the city through which FINANCES.
