THE COMMISSIONEXS LOOKING INTO THE MATTER, The District Commissioners have under con- sideration a number of cases where it isclaimed private owners are occupying public streets. The case of the Nicolai Brothers, who have an oil storing establishment near the Long bridge, was mentioned in THE STAR the other day. Action In this case nas been suspended for a few days to allow the Messrs, Nicolai to prepare ‘statement which they desire to present. There Ws also pending the case of Meridian uvenue, whieh, it is claimed, is oostructed. In this case the claim is made that the avenue has no legal existence. Another similer question hus been Taised on Sheridan street, Mount Pleasant. Commissioner Ludlow suid to-day he had no doubt there were many cases in the city where private persons were occupying public ground. The Commissioners proposed to maintain the lines Of the public streets as tuey lad them. It uny ‘One hus @ good Litle to ground occupied he ean prove his ttle in court, “Water street 1s one on which the Commissioners state there are many encroachments on the line of the street, Now that the Commissioners have obtained control of the river front they will give attention to Teestablishing and maintaining the line of Water street. ‘that —.+—__ THE SALVATION Aruy.—Last night when a Srakreporter stopped at the Salvation army barracks, corner o/ 6th and C streets northwest, h@ tound the door cfsed to outsiders.

For example, bis conclusion, after quoting my language (which generalized the law under discussion) and then giving the words of thelaw, is manifestly er- Foreous and absurd, as both convey the same idea, his remark concerning the annals of the nations of Christendom to the coutrary not- withstanding. My only omission in that con- Rection Was Perhaps jin the use of the word ‘annually”—a purely technical one. Further, no inistake was made whatever respecting thé expenditure within the limits of Washiugion and Georgetown of every cent of the item for improvement of streets and avenues,” as the estimites where the above mentioned item is Placed have not “every year since 1879 until Unis year a specific reference” to the streets to be improved. The schedule has been a mere appended statement, and 0 regarded by the ‘Treasury, as evidenced in the printed estt- mutes idr each year. The laws ot Congress alone made “specific reference” by quoting the title of sach appended schedule. Your corre- spondent, therefore, and not i, has made a ‘grave mistake.” The same “specific reterence” will of course be made this yeur, but it will be made by Congress and not in’ the estimates under the head in question. No “conclusive retutation” is needed In reference to my state- ment respecting the unity of the cities of Washington and Georgetown, as I was well aware ol the law on the subject, and merel stated that the latter was (as it is) “regarded” as part of Washington. That Congress bas always “observed and acted upon “this distine- tion” with reterence to the paving and repav- ing of streets I deny emphatically. It your correspondent bad more “caretuily revised and amended his statements” the occasion of this further contribution would have been avolded, and I suggest that as he apparently dwells on technicalities only, to the disregard ot facts stated 1n my communication, the subject’ hud better be dropped at this point. At least it Shall be so (except as to certain other state- ments of the N. Y. Tribune correspondent, Which I can prove erroneous) on the part of One Wio Kxows, Washington, November 9, 18: — Recorder Matthews’ New Quarters.

The recorder of deeds, whose office was re- cently removed from the northeast corner of the court house building to the northwest por- tion of the building, occupied his full allotment of rooms yesterday for the first time.

When te jarmer got in market yesterday evening he sold the Hird for ten cents, ‘the farmer's counsei asked that the defend- ant’s personal recognizance be taken, ‘The judge said that very honorably, and he was incaed to take his persoual bonds” The humane societies ad over the country were greatly exercised over the fearful destruction of these birds to adorn ladies hats, ‘The court wanted it distinctly Understved that all persons found with these birds in their possession would have to suiler the penalty ot the law. The court thought the object of the law was not only to protect the birds in the Disiriet of Columbia, but to par Ually protect virds in neiguboring states, ‘The court wanted ail lurmers to take notice that it caught with auy insectivorous birds in tueir sion they would have to submit to the and he noped the otficers would prosecute Person eaugnt witu any such birds in Ahvir possession, In tnis case the offender bad ucted sv Lonorauly that he would take his per- sonal bonds. ay “I think some of these militnéfs should pé prosecuted,” said Lawyer Jordan, “Bring Your charges,” said the Judge. “I think 20, too.” fr eee a Real Estate Sales. ‘The heirs ot the late ex-Senator Yulee have Uausterred to B.
