Evening Star Newspaper, November 21, 1887, Page 2

THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTO that of any other daily paper published in Washington, and much greater than that ofall the ether daily papers here added together. ‘The reply of the Commtsstoners to the inquiries Of the Senate special committee, inctuding the re- ports of District Attorney Riddle and Capt. Grima, ip answer to certain of the questions, constitutes & mine of interesting and valuable information concerning the different branches of Washing- ton’s railroad problem. The earnest and thought- ful labors of the Commisstoners have resulted in a ‘Vigorous presentation of the District case against the ratiroads, which, backed by a strong pabite sentiment and support, and addressed to a special committee of which the known fmclinations are in the direction of justice to the city and proper restrictions upon the rafiroads, cannot fail to be of benefit to the community. Attention ts pointedly directed in ‘the reply, to the evils of the reign of the railroads fm Washington, to the occupancy of too numerous streets, the multiplication of grade crossings, dan- gerous to life and limb and injurious to property, the unauthorized crossing of streets, the extension and multiplication of side tracks, the seizure of Public space far beyond chartered rights and priv- ileges, the unlawful use and occupation of pubiie streets as freight and storage yards, the cutting and disfigurement of the mall, the planting of ugly butldings and tracks in the immediate vicinity of the Capitol, ‘and the paralysis of northeast and South Wash- ingtoo and the damage to the whole city resulting theretrom. The route, and the site of the union sta- ton recommended by the Commisstoners suggest a Yast improvement of existing conditions The surface track in northeast Washington would be Nmited to @ short stretch near the boundary on Sth street, where there are few improvements; and local passenger stations at 5th and boundary, and, descending to the tunnel, on East Capitol street at Lincom Park, are sug- gested. Northeast Washington would be relieved of the two branches, gridironing its sur- facé and checking all improvement, and would hail with satisfaction the disappearance of the surtace tracks, the “Y" and the antiquared Baiti- more and Ohio passenger station, Rellet for South ‘Washington 1s proposed In tue removal of the Bal- timore and Potomac station and tracks from the mail, 6th street and part of Maryland avenue, in requiring other provision than the pubile streets tobe made for freight and storage purposes, in narrowing to 50 feet the space which may be occupted by tracks on Maryland and Virginia ave- nues, and in depressing the trackson these avenues Detween 44 and 12th streets west, so that these and the intervening streets can cross the cut com taining the tracks with little or no change ot grade, on briiges or ona roof ot girders built over the cut, If this scheme 13 practicable in view of the ‘topography of the section, and the Commissioners report that it fs, the most serious obstructions to the development of South Washington between the railroad tracks and the river front will be re- moved. ‘The Commissioners seem to attach too little im- portance to the growth of South Washington as a residence quarter, and the objections to thetr plan ‘Will doubtless come most strongly from that section, and from those in other parts ot the city who have hoped to see the mag- nificent avenues named after Maryland and Virginia, cleared of railroad tracks. But in contrast with existing conditions the plan pro- Posed, if it succeeds tu breaking the railroad wal Detween 43¢ and 12th streets, will bestow solid Devefits upon the southwest section, and wil @nable it to develop far more rapidly, both for Tesldence and business purposes. The location of the union depot at the convenient point suggested ‘will recommend ftseif to the northwest section and to the traveling public, and the clean sweep of Failroad tracks and buildings from the mall will delight every one who takes pride in Washington's picturesque beauty. + =—_____ ‘The B. and P. road will naturally make every effort to retain its present control of 6th street and ‘the mall, and release from its clutches as little as possible of the streets and reservations illegally Seeupied. South Washington is already threat- ‘ened with a revival of the scheme to fasten upon it immovably the present evils of the B. and P. ‘occupation by clearing the B. and 0. from North- east Washington and sending {t over or adjacent tothe B. and P. tracks to the present station on th street. Should this be accomplished the cry for rel’ef and a change would cease in Northeast ‘Wasbingtsa, the B. and ©. having its southern ‘connections would no longer be restless and ready ‘to make concessions, and South Washington, the special sufferer among the sections, would De left to fight singie-handed against the combined raliroads for redrew of the pres- ent grievances. With the tracks depressed Delow the surface for seven or eight squares, and a union station, withdrawn from the mail to the intersection of Maryland and Virginia avenues, a great gain would be made, though not all that has been hoped for. This location for the ‘union depot is said to be favored by Senator In- galls, and has veen recommended by the Commis- sioners. It is im the nature of a compromise Detween tne present site on 6th street and the location proposed by the citizens’ sub-committee to which the objection of pubite inconvenience 1s forcibly urged. Unies there is something tmprac- Ueable in the suggested plan of partial reliet to South Washington, it may be well for that section to consider whether, on the principle that halt a loaf ts better than mo bread, it will not be wise to assent to a proposition, which has enough elements of support to give It a pros- pect of success. Hot dispute over the matter be- fore Congress will inevitably result im leaving ‘Uhings as they are. It might be suggested, also, to thecitizens’ committee that in accordance with its assumed representative character, a strong pre- sentation of the evils under which the city suffers, and a demand for relief on certain general princi- ples, may be more forcible and effective than to commit itself to a thick-and-thin adherence to a Particular form of relief, shutting it out from ren- dering assistance to any more practicable or more success promising plan which may be developed, ——- A map prepered for Tux Stak and printed clse- ‘Where in this paper, shows the differeat routes and stations recommended by the Commissioners and the citizens’ sub-commitiee on railroads re- spectively, and also indicates which parts of the proposed routes aren the tunnel, which depressed im apopen cut and which on the surtace at or about grade. It will be of great convenience in ‘comparing the respective plans. Serious existing evlis are corrected by each of the routes proposed, and there are some objections toeach. But Wasb- ington will be glad if Congress accepts any one of ‘them or any combination of them, which will re- ‘sult in driving the railroads from the mall, in free- jag northeast and south Washington from the ‘most serious evils which oppress them, and in giving to the public a creditable and reasonably convenient union passenger station. ——— ‘The irrepressible conflict between ““Sisero” and “Kickero” has broken out afresh. It 1s desirable that the pronunciation of Latin be as nearly unt- form a8 possibie among scholars in all parts of the World. The tendency is towards the so-called Ro- man method. If bis fellow Romans called Cleero Kickero, we might as well humor them and pim in the matter, especially as we willingly hazard longue dislocation by attempting to follow the foreign progunciation of modern European,proper warned, ——— The Commissioners’ suggestions to the Senate Committee tp reference to street railways in Washington are sensible and up to the times. ‘They recommend strongly the adoption of the grooved rail, and a more effective motive power than the Loree, either the cable system or eiec- tricity.
