FURTHER EXTRACTS PROM ENGINEER COMMISSIONER YMOND'S REPORT TO THE CONFERENCE COM- MITTEE ON THE DISTRICT APPROPRIATION BILL. ‘Some of the facts stated and conclusions arrived at in the written report of Engineer Commissioner Raymond on the subject of underground wires, ‘submitted to the congresstonal conference com- mittee on the District appropriation bill, were printed in yesterday's Stam. As the subject of the Feport ts attracting much attention in many cities where the overhead eiectric lines are a subject of complaint on account of the danger to life and Property from their use, and ts of special Interest Wo the people of this District, where the evil has already been partiaily removed by burying some Of the wires underground, further extracts from ‘this important document are priuted below. IN REFERENCE TO TUE TELEPHONE LINES. Afver stating that tn compliance witu the orders of the Commissioners more than 5 miles of con- quits have been constructed by the telephone company, in which 1,356 miles of wire have been Daried, constituting more Cuan (wotbirds of the ‘trunk lines employed, the report says that the sysem works well, but recent improvements in ‘the manufacture of cabies justify the expectation ‘Chat better results can be obtained. Since the burying of the remaining overhead wires in Luis ser- Involvesextensive excavations in the streets, {isnot considered desirable to undertake this until ‘the result of ex) iments now ip progress has oan anopeateed’ capectaily asthe delay will be short. If these results prove satisfactory all trunk lines overhead should be placed under- 1d a8 9000 as possibie. There are about 1,435 Malies of such lines. The company intends to put about 200 miles of this wire underground and Ww Dury in addition about 200 miles of new wire. When ‘Unis work is completed the phone service wiil Dave about 1,756 mijes of wire in underground ‘trunk lines, and only 450 miles in trunk lines overhead. ‘THE DISTRICT WIRES. ‘The report says that ‘‘a portionjot the wires em- ployed in the District service for fire-alarm, police and other purposes has been placej underground, And the system works In the most satisfactory manner. For this purpose nearly 5 miles of con- duits, containing more than 25 miles of wire, have deen constructed. To complete the system aboat | 550 miles of wire should be buried, and this ougt to be done as rapidly as means permit. ‘TRS GENERAL TELEGRAPH SERVICE “The wires employed in the general telegraph service have not, to any considerable extent, been placed underground in the District, There are about 473.14 miles of such wires, only 25.5 of which are buried. The practicability of burying ‘these wires without great injury to the service bas been seriously questioned. Upon thls point it hesitates to express a decided opinion, since i have not as yet been able to give the subject careful investigation and study, but experience in other cities leads me to believe that this work can be Successfully accomplished. For example, It 1s stated in the reports of the board of commissioners of electrical subways of the city of Brooklyn that the Western Union Telegraph Co. and the Geld and Stock Telegraph Co. have agreed to place their conductors along @ certain rouve in underground conduits, but Iam unable to say at the present moment how much progress has been made. ‘THE GOVERNMENT WIRES After quoting further from the Brooklyn com- mission’s report Maj. Raymond continues: “In addition to the wires included in the above state- ment there are now in the District about 35 miles Of wire employed and controled by the General Government. Of these about 31.2 miles are un- derground. ‘There are also about 13.68 miles of ‘wire employed for private lighting, of which about are ” .68 miles are underground.’ He here tuserts a tabie showing, approximately, the character, quantity, and location of electric ‘wires in the District. OBJECTIONS TO 4 COMPREHENSIVE SYSTEM OF UNDER- GXOUND CONDUITS. Referring to the policy to be followed in to at tempt the construction of any comprehensive system of underground conduits, In the work already accomplished, be says, the diiferent eleo- i Work in accordance with its own peculiar ‘under the careful supervision and subject approval of the District authorities ‘Tue Our streets permits the adoption of this of procedure, and Major Raymond says fully satisfied tuiat by continuing It troubie- com} as Will be avoided and the best tg will be obtained with the least delay. No | .,Ne eays, should be authorized to lay ‘for other tuan Its own wires. ‘RECOMMENDATIONS. If the District Commissioners are provided with the necessary means and power he would recom- mend action during the coming fiscal year as follows: The contract for electric lighting of streets should provide that all wires. now buried shall remain under ground; that existing airlines on Penasyivania avenue shail be removed, and ‘that ft shall be in the discretion of the Couimis- stoners to require other air lines to be placed under Te i ground. No permission should de given for pri- vate Rithout tne condition that the wires shall be The telephone company should be required to bury all its remaining overiead trunk lines. ‘The overhead wires employed in tue service should be placed under ground. AS telegraph service he says) the burying require @ large outlay of capital legraphic busiuess of the country Wo great to permit the treat- stem in a summary manner, but yeasonable progress should be insisted upon. "Tne should submit plans for placing a their wires underground, and upon a id be required to execute them. No erection of new poles or restora should be granted unless the com- ply With these requirements. This should be oootinued until all the wires in city are underground. He does not consider ‘the proviso in the appropriation act as the House, requiring the removal and ‘of wires from all streets, avenues, and wherefrom the District wires have been or may be remov.d,thinking its effect would be Father to delay than hasten the work. LRGAL AUTHORITY OF THE COMMISSIONERS, In conclusion he iavites attention to some very important questions which have arisen relating to the legal authority of the Commissioner to carry out tbis or any other plan for burying te wires ‘The wires now buried, are for the most part, It appears to have been as- ‘sumed that the power of the Commissioners to HI ny ul i 8 g eee LF i Supreme Court in the case of tne Telephone Ca, against the Safe Deposit Co. raises 4 GRAVE DovET as to whether the Commissioners’ authority has any legal basis whatever. In the light of this it appears that the Commissioners have “no power to grant permits for permanent erec ons oF anything that resembles the permanent oveu Of the streets.” ‘The law devotes the ‘upper 6 inches of the street to pavement, and “it is Bot contemplated that the imtervenihy space should be oocupied by anything but pavement.” “It tue Wires are laid lower Luan six inches local vaulting privileges may be subsequently de- manded aid must be grauted and wired removed. ‘He says that under tuese circumstances the vio- Jent removal of the wires by aving hostile interests i legal and Justifiabie witaout regard to public convenience, and that the Commissioners are powerless Uo ‘protect the work they have ‘authorized. NEARLY ALL THE UNDERGROUND CONDUITS ILLEGAL. “It would seem from the above that nearly all the conduits in the city, including howe, used Official purposes, are illegal ructures. Under these circumstances Major Raymond thinks the Commissioners have no right to make further contracts “for electric lighting which Fequires the continuance or extension of such illegal occupation” of the streets, ‘PROPOSED AMEXDMENT TO THE DISTRICT AFPROPRI- ATION BILL.

SUMMER RESORTS WHERE THE HEATED TERM CAN BE PASSED IN COMPORT. There ts, perhaps, no more characteristic feature of American life than that which develops with the opening of the trunks that contain the sum- mer garments, the national custom of sending away the family for a Dreath of sea, or mountain, or country air, a trip to which the domestic mind ts turned at the Deginning of the heated term. ‘Tals season, above ail that have gone before, has produced stich a myriad of good things in the way of homes for the summer that it is hard to choose, and tue prospective vourist, unless he Bas made Up his mind already, must pouder a long while before be ventures a selection. A few notes in this key, struck at random from the seale of summer resorts advertised elsewhere In Tax Stax, may give aclue. ‘The Jersey coast is dotted with delightful resorts, among the best known and the best liked being Barnegat City, where the Hotel Oceanic, Kept by Mr. E.

It is certain that the Swiss aurhorities will ob- tain the extradition of Billy Porter and Frank Buck, the American burglars. who were arrested in London a few days ago on a charge of burglary committed in Munich, Porter had been shadowed from the time he arrived in England, in 1887. The Jewel robbery at Munich was the most daring in the annals of the German police. ‘The robbers forced a Side door, cut through two ceilings, and descended into the Jewelry shop by means’ of a Tope ladder. ‘They left tue ladder in the shop, to- gether with a piece of linen, which was afterward found to be identical with & of linen found in Buck's house, and 1n which some of the stolen Jewelry Was wrapped.

Ca y Camphor, A NEAT BIT OF DETECTIVE WORK BY PINKERTON’S MEX. From the Philadelphia Ledger. Assistant Superintendent Dougherty, of the Pinkerton agency, attributes the detection and capture of Express Agent Huber, of Sunbury, Pa, for the theft of the $29,600 package belonging to the Adams Express Co. on August 20, 1886, to two things—camphor and a woman's indiscretion, He said that Mrs, Huber had been boasting among her friends of what she would be able to wear Some day, and threw out hints of a big legacy. Afterward she gave river parties, dinner parties and other entertainments to her friends, and had had her house returnished and carpeted, and new heating apparatus put in. It was known that her Telatives were not wealthy. Huber also began Wearing better apparel. Capt. Dougherty said! that after suspicion bad been directed toward Huber, a Pinkerton agent, Who got his confidence, borrowed §1,000 trom him, Capt.

From the New York Preas. There seems to be some fear that work on the building intended for the accommodation of tue Congressional Library may be suspended. The debate on the original Senate bill to authorize the Purchase of a site brought out estimates that the Duliding would cost $3,000,000. These estimates were not expert or official, and when Congress decreed that the work should be entered upon tt was with a purpose that an umple structure, worthy of the government's dignity and of te future, as Well as Lhe immediate demunds on 1t, should be built, whatever 1 might cost. ‘There was a general ‘and very proper sense that a rich and prosperous Government could not afford to haggie over the price of @ buliding for its Con- gressional Library and copyright office. Now, however, that Secretary Vi.as bas frankly said Uiat the Dulluing will cost upward of $10,- (000,000, the cheeseparers are alarmed. They tall of aunuiling the contract already made for laying the concrete foundation for tue entire building, and probably they contemplate indenniely post poning the work, or altering the plans so as to ad- mit of 9 smaller’ buliding. There 18 no earthly need of tis. It 1s much better to bulid a Linge and handsome structure now, such as will give plenty of room and bean ornament to W: ton city, than to put up a sinaller building, which would require extension in a few y at the risk of sole such hideous arcpitectural botch as the mansard root uddition to the once beautiful inint building in Philadeipaia, ‘The Press Is glad to see that the Senate library committee, regurdiess of party, favors going ahead with the Work, using the best material and ar- Tanging it in tie best manner for fitness and ehitectural beauty, regardiess of « xpense. ‘The poor accommodations in which tue Congressional brary has long been cramped have seriously hampered Congress in its work.
