THE COUNTY REPRESENTATION. ‘The secretary read the report of the committee to which was referred the matter of the delegation from district No. 8, which numbered seven, instead of ive. This report, which was adopted, embodied a resolution “that that portion of district No. 8 which lies between the Anacostla or Eastern i | Branch and North Capitol street extended 13 en- | Utled to be represented by W. J. Frizeell and 8. Coombs; that portion between North Cap! street eXtended and 7th street extended, by W. Scott Smith, and that portion of said distric tween 7th street extended and Rock Creek by two delegutes to be selected by the residents of tha section.” MR. SPRAR PROTESTS. Mr. Ellis Spear, who belonged to the Mt. Pleas- ant delegation, said that he had been furnished With a copy of the resolution, and he wished to protest against {ts adoption. He thought that the comunitiee had exceeded its powers and had vir- tually elected delegates to the committee by seat ing Messrs. Frizzell and Coombs. Mr. Dodge suid that the committee, instead of deciding Which two of the four delegates from Mt. Pleasant should be seated, had refused to pass upon that question, und had referred it buck to the people of that section to decide by thelr votes Whom should represent them. ‘The report was then unanimously adopted. The president stated that the chairman of the delegation must designate members on the stand- ing comuntttees, in order that these committees might be completed. ‘THE RULES. The consideration of the preamble and rules offered at the last meeting was then begun, and occupied the remainder of the evening’s session, ‘The rules, as reported by the committee, were adopted With but few modifications, although a great numberof amendments were proposed which Were discussed at greater or less length. The rst amendment of importanes adopted was the one offered by Mr. John T. Mitchell, changing the Ume ror the annual election of oft cers frou: May to October, the present officers to hold over until that time. He said that by having an election in May tt would occur right in the Inldst of a session of Congress and he thought that October would be a more suitable time. Ab amendment proposed by Mr. Dawson, to change the name of the comintttee on “the ode of laws” to “on laws and resolutions,” brought out the lawyers on the cominittee, who’ informed the committee that if {t was intended that thts suD- committee should attempt codification of the jaws they were asking semething that would be impossibie for them to perforin Unless they gave their entire time for a year or more to arrange and digest the mass of enactments which caine under the denomination of District law. On be- half of those who bad drawn up the rules 1t was explained that the committee was intended to have charge of the matter of procuring from Con- gress a codification of the laws. ‘The amendment was pot adopted. ‘Those takihg part in the dis. cussion were R. Koss Perry, G. F. Dawson, Win. F. Mattingly, W. C, Dodge, Jas. G. Payne, T. A. Lam- bert, and W. W. Upton. GEORGETOWN, OR WEST WASHINGTON. In the clause defining the duties of the commit- tee on streets, avenues, and alleys, which read as follows: “The duties of the committee on streets, avenues, and alleys, shall extend to streets, av enues, ahd alleys in’the city of Washington (in- cluding West Washington”). Mr. S. C. Clarke moved to strike out the words “including West Washington” and Insert “the cities ot Washington and Georgetown.” He said that Georgetown was as much Of a city as Washington, and was so rec- ognized by law. He hoped that the committee Would not assume a name by indirection. If it was the desire on the part of the citizens to Substitute the name West Washington for Georgetown, then 1t should be done in the proper Way,by having Con gress change the law. When the vote Was taken the chair was unable to determine the viva voce vote, and a rising vote was had, Which resulted in the adoption of the | amendwent, WHO SHALL TALK FOR THE COMMITTEE. ‘The adoption of the rules went along very smoothly for several pages until rule 22d was reached. The frst clause of this rule was as fol- lows: “There shall be created from time to time, in such manner as the representative commitiee may determine, special executive committees of nine members each, whose duty it shall be to pre- sent the views of the representative committee to the executive, judicial or legislative depart- ments of the Unfied States, or to the local authori- es Of the District of Columbla, and of all such committees the President of tie representative committee shali be the chairman.” Mr. Dawson moved to strike out the three first lines and insert in eu thereof, “The executive committee shall comprise the presidents of the nine district associations.” ‘This amendment gave Tise to a somewhat prolonged debate as to the ad- Visabillty of placing all this power and responsi- bility in the hands of one committee or aduering to the representative principle and selecting a spe- ¢lal comunittee to take charge of any special sub- Ject and to represent the whole committee before Congress or the District Government, It Was finally decided to allow the rule to stand and the amendment Was voted down. ‘Mr. M. I Weller offered an amendment, to insert the Words “one each to be selected by the respect- ive delegations.” He said that he thought in this way the different sections of the city Would be more fairly represented. ‘OBJECTS TO “SECTIONALISM.” Mr. Simon Wolf arose at this point and sata that he had heard that word “section” once too often. He entered the committee as a citizen of the District, mot as a ciuzen of any section, and he expected’ that all the iembers had come to- gether in the same way, with the intention of act- Ing for the good of the’ whole District, and to see Uhat all sections had thelr fair share of rights and privileges. “ite thougut that the comunittee could relied upon to select men who would represent the whole District in carrying out their will ‘The vote being taken On Mr. Weller’s amend- ment it was lost. toile otner two sections of this rule were read as follows: “The executive committees shall alone be au- thorized to represent the representative commit. tee before the legislative, executive, and judicial departments of the Government Of the United States, and before the District authorities, and only When specially directed so to do by vote of the representative comunittee, and upon the mat- Ver specially entrusted to them by it, “No individual member of the representative committee, and no standing committee, shall, as such, oF in'te name of the representative com- mittee, or of any standing commuttee, communt- cate with tbe executive, judicial, or legislative departments of the General Government, or with the local authorities.” Mr. Perry suggested as an amendment to the 0” the words “citizens’ associations having delegates in the citizens’ committee.” ‘Tue chair observed that an amendment similar 4m effect to this had been proposed by the commit. Vee of presidents When the rules were considered, Dut by some oversight it had Deen omitted. He {uen read the proposed amendment, which was in effect the same as Mr. Perry's, MB. PERRY'S REMARKS, Mr. Perry said that the representative committee of one hundred had been intrusted with certain powers by the district organizations, and that in Unis respect they were a representative body. If Ubis was not the casé, If local assoctations could act independently of’ this committee and perform the functions assigned to the main body, he wanted to know it, because he could not longer Continue as 4 member of Uuls body, He had seen in the news Papers, and, in tact, that was the only source of information, that efforts had been made lately by a local association, the whole tenor of which Was to overturn the present form of District gov- erument. He did not speak of the individuals composing that government, Dut of the plan by Which the people of tae Digtrict are governed. He Was opposed to tuts actiol. In the same way he had received information that a private eltizen, Said to represent one of the citizen's associations, had gone Into the public schools and had under taken to interiere with the operations of the Schools; conduct an examination of the scholars, he Dbelléved the newspapers had termed it. This to, or anything itke it. preveut any local assoctation having delegates to Luis comiuittee to appear betore Congress, the Executive Departments, or the local government. Hf tuts, comunittee was "to be anythlug OF UO do anything this sort of omciousness ie a must be stop- Mr. Pelam said he was opposed to any such | Sinendments. All the power of the committee rested im the local assoclations. It wi Cdk of what we will allow tho local aasseratiosS todo. He sald that his association was composed of property-holders in that section, and they had sent delegates to the general cominittee for the purpose of letting them know what they (the as sociation) wants done. He said that It was wrong for the delegates to attempt to set themselves Up as greater than those who made them. THE VIEWS OF MR. LEETCH. Mr. John Leetch said that he was glad that Mr, Perry had taken the position he had. His under. Standing of, the objects of the committee was to ascertain the needs of each section of the Distri and togive thefr ald and influence if the obje Was a good one. As a member of this representa- tive committee, he felt mortified by the recent ac- counts which had appeared in the daily papers ona certain subject. For his own association he would say that if local associations were to be allowed to usurp the powers of the central com- mittee to dictate to the Commissioners, or any other authority, he could see no use of the further continuance of the central committee, For his part he was proud of the public schools of the District, and he was proud of the present man- agement, and if this kind of examination of the children Was to be allowed, and was to continue, he would refuse to remain any longer a member of the central committee, ME. WILSON SPEAKS FOR NO. 4. ‘Mr. Jesse B. Wilson then took the floor and sald ‘that the remarks of the gentlemen in reference to recent publications in the newspapers were a little premature, He said that this matter which association No.4 had been investigating was simply @ continuation of a movement which was started at a public meeting of citizens held last fall in the Rifles’ Hall, over which the late Judge Cartter presided. HiS association had been deal- ing with that matter. They had undertaken it loug before the representative committee was formed. But now that the committee has com- pleted its organization and 1s ready tor work his assoctation Would Work in harmony with it. ‘They would flnd that uo association would be more loyal to the representative committee than No. 4. ‘The only thing was they had begun the ght and they proposed to stay in it. They ad no other in- ton. Now what did we'ask from the Commissioners?” continued Mr. Wilson, taking a paper from his pocket, “I read jusi What our request was,” ‘He Was interrupted With cries of “Ob, no!” from all parts of the hail. He, however, began to rea when Mr. Perry interrupted and Said that he di ‘hot think it was germane to the discussion, “You ought not to have made the attack,” ex- claimed Mr. Nobie D. Larner, Jumping to his feet, “if you did not want to go into the subject. Now that you have begun we propose to be heard.” ‘The chair asked If Mr. Perry persisted in nis point of order, and, if he did 80, to state tt, Mr. Perry said that his point of order was that this Committee Was not interested in the contro- vers¥ between the Commissioners and a local as- sociation. ‘The cuatr dectded that the point of order was not well taken, Mr. Wilson then went on to say that all they had asked of the Commissioners Was, “Have you any objection to having certain questions an- swered?” ‘That was the extent of their matter ‘with the Commisstoners. Mr. Jas. G. Payne sald that he thought it was unnecessary to go into nis matter any further. What has happened ts done. ‘These gentiemen have signified their intention of abiding by the action of this committee, and there is nothing further for us to do. Mr. Samuel H. Walker thought that there were Hable to arise In each local association certain questions which required prompt actlon, and it would, perhaps, be harmful to their interests to have to awail a meeting of the general committee As citizens he sald that he thought they hada Tight to go before Congress or tiie local govern- ment whenever the necessity required. MR. LARNER SPRAKS. Mr. Noble D. Larner said that in his opinion the comu:ttee was In favor of the amendment offered by Mr. Perry, but there was no reason for making an attack upon something that he knew nothing about. ‘The great dificulty with him was that ne had tried to fire of hls gun without having any Wwder. This whole matter had been begun fore "this association was formed by the association of ‘the fourth district. “it we had not gained our points,” he added, “over the heads Of the Comialssiouers we should hot now De subject to Such attacks. They had not under. taken todo a thing Which had not been cheer- fuily granted to any competent person under former administrations of our local government. They asked Une superintendent of the public Scaools to allow an examination to be made of the Protictency of the pupils by an expert, and the Superintendent granted the request. They did nothing without authority,” ue continued, “and now that this committee 1s organized, une’ facts Uhat we have gathered willbe brought here and uot sent to the Commlsstouers or to Congress.” Mr, M, 1. Weller protested against uie amend- ment. He the city where there Was a hundred miles of un- paved Streets, and they regarded with suspicion anything that tended to deprive them of tueir Tiguts. Whatever might be the result of the vote ou the amendinent be would give them fair no- Uce that East Washington would look out for its own Interests, ‘The rule, as amended by Mr. Perry, was then adopted. Mr. Weller then moved that the adoption of the Tules asa whole be postponed, and that they be Teferred to the local associatidns for thelr actlon. ‘This amendment Was iost, Mr. Weller apparently being the only one voting’ in its favor. Ab amendment changing thé number required for a quorum at the meetings of the representauive comuittee from twenty-five to forty was adopted. THE RULES ADOPTED, ‘The rules as a whole were then adopted. They Provide for the following officers: A president Vice-president, secretary and treasurer, to be, elected annually in October. The standing com- mittees are composed of nine members euch, ex- cept the committee on streets, avenues and alleys, and the committee on schools, which shall bé composed of ten members each, ‘These several committees shall have at least. one member from each local delegation, ‘The sub-committees pro- posed are as follows: On code of laws, on assess- ment and taxation, On schools, on streets, avenues and alleys, on water supply and sewerage, on steam rallroads, on street railrouds, on harbors and Wharves, on light, on roads and bridges, on law and order, on publle charities, on public buildings for thé District, and on pubile reserva- Uons and parks. ICis provided that the regular meeUngs of the representatlve committee shall be held on the first Tuesday in each month, Funds for detraying the current expenses of the repre- sentative committee shall be raised in the Rrst instance by an assessment of $5 upon each mem- ber, and subsequently In such manuer as may be determined by a vote of the committee, In reply to a question the chair stated that the sub-committees could be called together by the secretary of the committee sending a notice to the members, Each comimittee will then elect its own chairman, as provided in the new rules. On motion of str, Perry, 1,000 coples of tie new Tules were ordered to be printed, COMMUNICATIONS FROM THE SCHOOL BOARD. ‘The chair stated that the communication re- ceived at the last meeting from the scttool board inviting a conference on matters relating to school management, which had been critizised in a re- port made to Citizens’ Association No. 4, would now be referred to the committee oa schools, under the rules. He said he had received another com- munication that evening from the schooi board, which would be reierred to the same committee, ‘This communication was not read, ‘The committee then adjourned, to meet the first Tuesday in July. WHAT IT WAS ABOUT. It 1s understood that in the communication above referred to the board returned the “blanks for information” furnished by Association No, 4 with the statement that the board would not con- sider a request of thts kind from a local associatio Dut that ifthe representative committee desired ‘such information it would be supplied, ‘The school committee ts as follows: 1.

York ana Chicago Limited, of the Pennsylvania Railroad, commencing June 15. These cars, the latest production of the Pull- man Palace Car Company, and the exemplitica- ton of the best skill and the cleverest ingenuity Of the car builder, will take the place of the ordi- nary Pullman Sleeping Cars with which this ¢rattt has heretofore been equipped. They combine every good feature of the old system with numerous In. provements which have never before been ele ployed in car construction, Under the new. are Tangement separate coaches lose their identity and are merged into one elongated coach, which contains every conventence a traveler could find in the best hotel. The coaches may be sald to be arranged en suite, so easy 1Sthe mode of commu. nication between them. ‘This desirable result is obtained by the use of vestibules, ‘The vestibules are formed by enclosing the plat- forms. ‘The ends of the platforms are fitted with broad, thick frames of steel extending from floor to root and supported by a strong elastic pressure derived from springs. When the cars are con- hected these frames press tightly against each other, forcing back the steel springs-and giving Close contact throughout the entire surface. By this means a Wonderful steadiness of motion 4s obtained, while there 1s sufficient flexibility at points of contact to enable the train to round Curves, The additional ease secured is a great point, but a greater still {s the protection against Yelescoping in case of coliiston, which the power- ful steel frames afford. Sheets of rubber cover the Junction points, and oppose an unbroken obstruc- Uon to the entrance of wind, dust or rain. ‘The ine terior of the vestibules are furnished, lighted, and carpeted, so as to conceal any break’ in the con- Unuity of the floor.
