[Laughter and applause). or ict in Congress, STREET OBSTRUCTIONS. In the Senate to-day Mr. Chandler submitted a Fesolution which was adopted, directing the Dis- trict commitiee to ascertain what rules or regula Uons prevail in the District for granting authority to house-owners to extend the fronts and the door- steps of their residences into the streets and to es- tablish carriage-ways across the sidewalks to and from th ir frogt doors, and to inquire Whether or not such rules’ and regulations and the practice under them are lawful and judicious, and whether Such carrlage-ways across the sidewalks are con- Istent with the safe use of the lauter by foot pas- sengers, ‘A Stan reporter asked Senator Chandler for an explanation of his resolution. He repliea that te practice of permitting carrlageways to cross side- walks where there 18 ample space inside the purk- ing is not so objectionable, but that In some cases, notably on street, such carriageway huve beet mitted to cross and recross tl alk where ‘ere 18 scarcely more than space between tue front of the house and the sidewalk for a carriage. If this practice goes on it will = become full of danger - wo Pedestrians. Mr. Chandler said there are a thou. Sand house-owners in tne city to-day who would like to have the privilege of crossing the sidewalk With cafriag way, and unless something ts done to check the practise many sidewalks will become but a continued series of crossing-car- rlageways. With regard to the steps, Sena. tor Chandler says many houses now being erected are extending their fronts beyond the bullding line. Toe system of parking was adopted, he says, to maintain a line of park- ing between the sidewalk and residence, und not to extend the butlding line. Senator Chandler wrote a letter to the Commissioners inquiring as to two houses on I street with dangerous carriage crossing, but he received no reply. Hence his res- ‘olution adopted by the Senate to-day.

Natural Gas for Locomotives. INTERESTING EXPERIMENTS WITH THE VIEW OF DISPENSING WITH COAL. From the Ransas city Times. Perhaps the most daring tmprovement now being attempted 1s the utilizing of natural gas a3 fuel for engines and to furnish light and heat for cars, Several master mechanics in the country hold that this product cannot be confined and used, and the master mechanic of the Fort Wayne, Cincinnatl and Loulsville road has demonstrated his belief so plainiy that the omcials of that line have placed at _his command all the money, men and material necessary to a rh test. ‘The route of that Toad 1s through the heart of the immense gas regions of Tudiana, many of the wells being of great pressure and flowing from 3,000,000 to 12,000,000 cuble feet_ every twenty-four” hours, Several weeks ago the master mechanic and super intendent had constructed a wrought-iron cylinder 1S eet long aud 2 feet In diameter, with beavy ends screwed in. ‘The cylinder was subjected to the most critical and sclentific tests, and was pro- vided with gauges to register the’ pressure. It was placed on board a car and transported to Montpelier, Ind., Wuere there are located two strong gas’ wells; The cylinder was attached to one of them, Which hada rock pressure of 450 pounds tote square inch. When the gas was turned on the gauge showed that it Was full in less than one ininute. Tue tank Was then loaded on the cars and taken to the suops at Fort Wayne. Here it was attac: to the usual natural gas burning apparatus with a “regulator” that controlled the enormous pressure Of the gas so that It flowed out in a steady, re, lar current of one and @ half ounces to the Squ tneb, the pressure al Which natural gas ts bucued, ‘The gauge showed That the gas had lost but littic Of its pressure, and 1t supplied ligntin the burners in theshops for several hours, besides heating one lange stove and one forge. : So much of @ success was the first test that others have been made with larger cylinders, and the gas transported each time a distance of 38 miles ‘The officials and experts are so weil satis fled with the experiment that orders have been 1s- sued to equip the road engines with tanks, and the workmen in the shops are how making the neces- sary chauges. steel tanks or cylinders somewhat alter the pattern of tne Standard O11 Co.'s cars are being made, and these will be at- tached to the engine in the rear of the tender. ‘They will have # capacity equal to as many thou- cubic feet Of gas a8 Will represent enough of coal to make a trip over the road, which 1s about 120 miles in length.
