THE STREET SCHEDULE. Why a Detailed Statement of Proposed Street Improvements is Delay A question has been raised as to the action of the District Commissioners in not sending to the Secretary of the Treasury with their esti- mates a detailed statement or schedule of Streets upon which they propose to expend money appropriated for street improvements next year. The law says the Commissioners shall submit to the Secretary “a statement showing in detail” the work proposed to be un- dertaken by them. Heretofore the Commis- sioners have sent with their estimates a sched- ule of streets to be improved. Col. Ludlow, speaking of the maYer to a Stak reporter, said he understood the Commissioners had com- piled with the law in submitting esti- mates showing how they proposed to divide the money among different departments and public works of different character. So mueh tor schools, so much tor police, so much for sewers, so mueh for street improvements, and soon, He did not understand that they were obliged to send to the Treasury Dep ment list of streets to be improved, and did not think such a course Would be wise. The Secretary of the Treasury, or the subordinate officer 16 whom the estimates were could not have any facil'tk the needs of aifferent streeis. ‘The Commis- sioners propose to submit such a schedule to Congress. As a matter of tact, be said, the Commissioners had not prepared such a schedule yet. They had a list of streets upon which improvements are demande | ing in amount two and a quarter milion dollars, They usked for $405,000 for such work and proposed to select irom their list those streets upon which there appenred to be the most urgent need of improven “Ifwe made outa schedule now, and public,” said Col. Ludiow, “the Commissioners would’be harrassed to death by the property owners on the streets not ineluded in the sche: ule. We will take our time a schedule befure Congress meets. missioners in making thelr estin ni the estimated local revenues of the | District, which amount to about $2,000,000, Counting the $2,000,000 to be appropriated | nuress in Addition to this the Commissioners, fixed their estimated expenditares for various purposes at $4,000,000, This sum they divided among the diferent objects of public expendi- ture, providing so far us this amount wouid permit for needed additions to school facilities, to the police and to other departments, and giving xs large an increase as they could, aiter providing for other objects, to street improy ments. The sum thus allowed would pay for about one-fourth of the street work on their list. Commissioner Webb, speaking of the matter, said he saw no moré need for or obli Upon the Commissioners to send to the treas- | ury a detziled schedule of proposed street, im. | provements than to send similar detailed statements of alleys to be improved, street mps to be erected, streets to be sweeped and sewers to be laid. iS The Descendants of Robert Morris.
