THE DEATH RATE IX WASHINGTON. ‘Washington is often published as a very an- healthy city,as the health officials of this city say, on the strength of the statistics of one week, ora short period of time, when the mor- tality has been exceptionally large. The com- ues statistics ofa year, however, show that ‘ashington is an unusually healthy city. The following is the death rate for 1.000 during the year 1884, given by the authorities of the cities mentioned thi the health officer at Rich- mond: New York, 25.82. Boston, 24.11; Hart- ford, 23.00; ington, 24.07; Memphis, 26.08; Charleston, 8. C., $4.55; Atlanta, Ga., 29.87; New Orleans, 30.53; Richmond, 25.38; Petersburg, 27.36 During’ some of the weeks 1 this summer the mortailty among children has been very large, and has swollen the statis- ties for the week. Upon these statistics com- ments huve been made unfavorable to the city. About 70 per cent ‘of this mortality ‘amon: children, the heaith officer says, has occu among poor colored children, who, he is led to velieve, have not had proper care, CHIMNEYS IN BAY WINDOWS. The communiation of Gen. Meigs to the District. Commissioners in relation to chimneys in bay windows, published some days since in THE STAR, Was relerred to Building Inspector Entwisle, who re- reports to the Engineer Commissioner as fol- lows: “The regulations do not prohibit chim- neys in bay windows, but I was directed by your predecessor not to allow them to be con- Structed with the shafts above the roof outside of the building line. His reasons, as stated at the tlme, were that they were unsightly— especially so should a block of buildings be fin- ished with a llne of chimney shafts at the cen- ter ede of the bay windows. The restriction laced upon them when allowed is that they be carried to the main wall upon Iron beams and topped ont at the line of main or front wall, ‘This [have followed, it being the only order I have received in the case, To discrim- inate as is suggested would open the door to all that may desire to soconstriet them.” * PROTECTION OF EAST WASHINGTON AGAINST FIRE. Commissioner Edmonds told a Star reporter that he was desirous of establishing a new fire engine company in East Washington. He says the District owns a lot 30x80 feet on Sth street, near Pennsylvania avenue, on the old Easby¥ Property, He thought that if the residents of this locality would offer to donate to the Dis- trict the space of twenty feet necessary to con. nect this lot with the alley in the rear the Comn- inissioners could obtain from Congress permis sion to place a house there with an appropria- ton to pay for It, Commissioner West said: “Iam in favor of a tire engine in that locaiity, but I would not require the citizens to contribute; I would give to them on the same conditions as to other localities, Let the District purchase the ground and erect the house.” TRECASE OF PRIVATE WILLIAMS OF THE FIRE DEPARTMENT. ‘The Commissioners request Chief Engineer Cronin to transmit to their office all papers bearing on any former trial of Private R.

Richmond Rapidly Filling Up With Delegates—Wise Apparently im the Lead for the Governorship. ‘Special Dispaten to the EVENING STAR Ricnwonp, Va.,July 14.—About one hundred delegates, one-fifth of those expected to attend the republican state convention to-morrow, were in the clty last night, and this morning's train added at least one hundred and fifty more, Pre- Uminary discussions continue to point to th nomination of John S. Wise for governor, though the friends of Attoriey General Blalt have nowise abated their claims or their efforts. Wise was in the city yesterday and last night.

THE BOOM FOR BOW: The Blair men are protesting earnestly against the efforts made to boom ex-Congressman Bowen and ex-State Senator Wood, both from Blair's congressional district, for elther gov- emor or Heutenant governor, as the interests of the Wise canvass may dictate. The fact that no such attempt to divide Wise’s strength in | the territory peculiarly his, is pointed to as in- dicating the presence of tie “machine” in ac- tive working order for Wise and against Blair. There is an appearance of sincerity in the boom for Bowen in the fact that his friends are seck- ing friendly relations with those of both Blair and Wise, and his nomination would be ex- ceedingly ‘probable but for the fact that be is not an altractive speaker on the stump, MAHONE'S DECLINATION.
