THE NEW ENGINE-HOUSES. The commitiee to whom was referred the communication of the District Commissioners in relation to new engine houses, (Commis. | sioners Hume and Tait, Building Inspector Entwistle, and Chief Engineer Cronin) submitt- ed their report as follows: “The building committee of this board, to whom was referred the communication of the | District Commissioners, requesting the board to report at its earliest convenience the most suitable locations for the fire engines and hook and ladder companies authorized by the sundry civilexpense bill of June 2), 1873, beg to make the following report: The bill author- zes the purchase and erection of two new engine houses and one hook and ladder house, and for the equipment of the same. In making a proper distributien of the depart- ment your committee recommend (after thor- oughly can¥assing the city) that one of the heok and ladder companies should be placed in the first ward, bet and 24th sts. and the circle and M street north, thereby command- ing Georgetown, and northwestern and central sections of this city; the other truck company should be located ‘on Capitol Hill, between B and D streets northeast and Delaware avenue and 2d street northeast, which vill command the northeast, southeast and center of the city. 7 opt this suggestion it will be necessary onvert the Pucsent hook and ladder house into an engine house and place one of the new engine companies there. We therefore most | earnestly recommend that the present heok and ladder house be converted into an engine Louse and one of the new engines placed there; also to Enpre ss upeu the board the im- portance of this location fur an engi pany. We further recommend that the ot engine company be placed in the northern see tion of the city, between 10th and 121 northwest and N street and Rhode Your committee have ve p of the city, as. w Tsoua! ins} ection of the localitie d feel satisfied that in accepting é ndations a very equal distrivutiva of artment will be mad amit- tee beg to state sons have off tions of and to say that in e. number of suitabl be procured, and suggest the propr: once advertising for proposals for io the metes and bounds as herein deseribec that a!l owning-suitable property may opportunity to present their bids.

CLOSE GAME OF Base Batt YESTERDAY.— About the largest and by far the most enthusi- astic crowd that has been presemt at a game of ball this season witnessed the contest yester- day afternoon between the Nationals and the New Bedfords. The game was well played on both sides, and was intensely exciting. The New Bedfords lead pretty easily till they lefe the bat at the close of their ninth inning. When the Nationals came in the score stood 6 to4. By good batting they—amid the wildest 1iot of uproar—finished the ninth inning by ueing the New Bedfords, the score being 6 to 6. Although it was Betting pretty dark, the New Bedfords took a tent = inuing at’ the bat, making one run. Darkness prevented the game being finished, and it was decided a tie on the score at the close of the ninth inning. Mr. Butler's umpiring was very {i and showed prett The Bed. ¥ good judgment. fords kicked ve “against his deci: but afterwards era ‘ully accepted the situation. One thing they did not accept gracefully was the manner ini which Reilly, one of their nine, was put out after batting Bannon for a home run. He ran around the es before the ball Was gotten home, iled to touch third base. None of the jonals noticed this, and were ready to go on with the game. One of their outside friends yelled to Bannon to throw the ball to third. This he did, and the umpire decided Reilly out. The New Bedfords did not like this, and’protested against being “given away” by an outsider, but had to submit. The ine] ee did have a rather jockeyish look about it.
