Noyes, Treasurer Evening Star Newspaper Co. Subscribed and sworn to before me this twenty-second day of April, A. D. 1399, Joux T. CO, Crank, Notary Public. ed, The question of the extent of the control of the District Commissioners over the public streets in the matter of granting permits for side-tracks to the railroads is one of great in- terest and importance to the people of the Dis- trict, Capt, Symons in his report on the snb- ject, published on Satarday, boldly grapples the complicated legal problems involved with | the same unflinching courage that our army is | expected to display in assaulting the enemy, and that our army engineers reasonably exhibit im undertaking to build a bridge or dig a tun- uel. He is of the opinion that the Commission- ers, with the public interests in view, have the | right to permit the laying of side tracks into | property lying along and in the vicinity of the tracks specially authorized by Congress, even to the extent of crossing other streets. The Commissioners, however, considering the ques- tion as one of law rather than of engineering, | Easter His Coxe Axo Gosr, AND THE HEART OF MANY A “MALE IN- BABITANT™ OF WASHINGTON WAS MADE GLAD ON THAT DAY BY THE STYLISH SUIT OR OVERCOAT THAT WENT OUT FROM OUR STORE ON FRIDAY AND SAT- URDAY.

In the case decided by the latt court the extension of a side track across 14th street by the Baltimore | and Potomac road was opposed by the Commiszione the lenguage used in the decision seems to indicate that fall control of the streets in this particular is still in Congress, and is not delegated to the Commissioners or unybody else. The court say (Distri B. & R -& The title tot eets of Washington is in the United States. and not in the city, or in the owners of the adjacent lots. It is therefore eminently proper that the right to use them for any other than the ordinary use of streets suould proceed from Congress; and when we consider the expressed reservation of the power of Congress to allow this use in the original grant to the company, found in the third section of that act, and the detsil and precision with which every foot of the track or tracks has been preseribed by Congress, and thet every change which expe- dieney required has been previously author- ized by Congress, we can see no place for the assertion of any right in the company to make other tracks or changes in the location of those now existing without an act giving the consent f that body. . . . We are of the opinion that when thi any wishes to depart in any direction from the line of its present track as prescribed for it by acts of Congress, it must obtain permission to do so from that body.” If the Commissioners have a control of the streets which will enable them to grant to the railroads the use of additional street-room for railroad purposes they ought also to have such control as will enable them to exercise the re- served powers of Congress in respect to the re- moval of tracks, caange of grade, and elimina- tion of surface crossings, and favors to the railroads and benefits tothe public should be made to go hand in hand. The suggestion of Capt. Symons that the public is more inter- ested in the retention of the alleged illegal tracks than the railroad, is a mere repetition of the railroad threat that unless it is per- mitted to use the streets of the capital, ille- gully and gratuitously, for its freight and stor- age purposes, it will distribute the local freight outside of the city or outside of the trict. The railroad should buy land for freight and storage purposes, as it does in other cities, and in seeking permission from Cougress to use this property it should be willing to have coupled with the privilege a requirement that it reduce for the public good the evils of its occupation of the public streets. It enjoys gratuitously in this city rights and privileges which would cost it millions anywhere else; and it abuses these privileges, disregards the law, injures unduly the portion of the city occupied, and threatens further damage if itis not left undisturbed. The Commissioners themselves have mildly stated the condition of things in their report to theSenate committee, signed by two of the present board: “In the oceupation of space to which it is not entitled—in the crossing of streets not authorized by law, in the extension and multiplication of side tracks and switches, and in particular in the unlawful use and occupation of the public streets as freight and storage yards to the obstruction of public travel and the great detriment and annoyance of private rights—the road has exhibited that tendency toward the protection of its own interests, disregard of those of others and the violation of public rights which large basiness corporations of this character are sure to dis- play in the absence of watchfulness and need- fal restraining influences.” The railroad suffers slightly in respect to freight and storage facilities by the inaction of Congress: but the public suffers far more from the failure of that body to consider and act upon the existing evils of railroad occupa- tion. Both sets of grievances should be re- dressed at once Se What a rousing welcome is awaiting those lucky people from the cabin and forecastle of the Danmark when they get safely into port! To all intents they are as men risen from the dead, We call this « small world, but it is astonishing tosee howeasy a band of several hundred human beings can get lost in it. $< a oe It was doubtless with surprise that most per- sons heard of the dangerous character assumed by the illness of Mr. Murat Halstead. Rheuma- tism is so common in its lighter chronic forms that sympathy with the sufferer usuallytakes the place of apprehension for his safety. It is to be hoped that the confidence of his physicians is well founded, and that the brilliant editor is on the high road to recovery. << It is worthy of note that, of all the persons who have abused the press for its forebodings of bloodshed in Oklahoma, and declared them mere sensational imaginings, not one has offered bis services as umpire between rival claimants of the same quarter-section. ‘¥ MEN HAVE AN IDEA THAT COVERING FORK THE FOOT, AND FOOT IS COVERED, If MAT 4 sete’, cece LIGUT CALF, 4.00, $5.00, $6.00 $7.00.
