EXTENDING CITY STREETS. Pro ms of the Mill as Modified by the Commissioners. THEY RECOMMEND THAT THE WORK SHOULD BE DONE BY THE COMMISSIONERS, AND PROPOSE AN EX- PENDITURE OF $1,000,000, HALF OF WHICH WILL HAVE TO BE CHARGED AGAINST PROPERTY BENE- FITED. The District Commissioners to-day addressed a letter to Chairman Ingalls, of the Senate District cominittee, returning Senate bill 3028, “to extend the streets and avenues of the city of Washington, District of Columbta,” with such modifications as they consider desirable. The Commissioners say in their letter: “The bill as thus modified leaves the plan for the street extensions contemplated and ail proceedings for carrying such plan into effect in the hands of the Commissioners of the District of Columuta, instead of creating a new commission for these purposes, and it appro- Priates $15,000 for the necessary expenses con- nected ther: with. Untila definite plan for the work proposed has ben adopted, it 1s impossible to make an accurate estimate of the cost of carrying out the provisions of this bilL ‘The benelits to the section asa whole would go far to offset all damages, but in some cases smail holdings and improvements would be much dat aged. ‘The Commissioners are of the opinion that $1,000,000 1s a reasonable approximate estimate of Lie amount necessary to carry the measure Into execution. As the bill provides that half this ex- Pense 1$ to be assessed upon the property bene. fied the expense to the District of Columbia and general Government will approximote $250,000 re- spectively. In conclusion the Comm’ssioners beg leave to Say that they consider tis bill ag one of the most important ever referred to them for con. sideration. ‘The condition of affatrsin the sec- tuon referred to ts highly unsatisfactory. ‘There is great uncertainty regarding the permanency of existing sireets, and in consequence a cloud rests upon such property located tn this section. More- over important engineering questions cannot be intelligently decided until the location of the streets 18 definitely determined.
