CITY AND DISTRICT. ————— @& Tue Evexta Sraz is read every day by more than two-thirds of the population of the city in which it is printed who are able to read! Can this record be matched by that of any other mewspaper in the sorld? THE CANAL AND THE BUILDERS. Interests that are Affected by the Sus- pension of Traffic. VIEWS OF BUILDERS, ARCHITECTS, BRICKMEN AND SUPPLY-MEN—THE STONE-QUARRIES UP THE CANAL--WHERE THE LIME AND CEMENT sUP- YLIES COME FKOM--THE CUMBERLAND COAL, The building interests of the city are affected to some extent by the suspension of traffic on the Chesapeake and Ohio can: A portion of the supplies of lime. stone. building stone and cement. besides the Cumberland coal used in the brickyards, have come by way of the canal. There is a diversity of opinion, however. as to the extent to which such interests are affected. Star reporters have interviewed a number of builders, architects, brick men. and dealers in building supplies on the subject. ARCHITECT FLEMING'S VIEWS. Col. Robert L Fleming. architect and builder, said that he regarded the loss of the canal as a matter of serious consequence to the city. In the building trades. he said. the lack of water transportation for lime, cement. coal and stone will be felt in the increase of prices which will be charged for these articles. The cost of building. he thought, would be increased con- siderably. The supply of lime was mainly from local sources, and that would now be cut of the supply obtained from Baltimore, The same is true of cement. although not to the same extent. He said that there would naturally be an advance in the tof brick as Cumberland coal would increase in value. Col. Fleming. who is in charge of the work of build- ing the tower of the Chrrch of the Covenant, said that work had stopped owing to the lack of brick and stone. The former was obtained from the quarries owned by A. L. Barber. They are located about four miles up the river. and the stone when quarried was brought to the city by boat on the canal. Since the recent freshet. Mr. Barber has directed the to be abandoned and all the workmen have been discharged. He said. however, he had no objection to others taking out stone and so Mr. W. C. Morrison. the builder, has sent men up there to quarry the stone and it will be brought | to the city in wagons. Fortunately, Col. Flem- | img said, there was not mach more stone needed to finish the church tower. The bricks would be supplied when the connection with the brick yards on the Virginia side had im- proved. “Street improvements,” continued the col- onel, “will also be affected by the damage to the canal, for considerable quantities of cement from Shepherdstown is used on them as well as in building operations. and the stock now here cannot last long. This, of course, will affect the price of cement other points, It looks now as if the disaster which has fallen on West Washington in the damage to the canal will be felt by the District generally, and if the canal is not putin rat once the trade is gone. I do not know ef the damage, but I am with a Is force of workmen : ‘Ke well managed the banks siiould be restored in thirty days. But the locks wonld likely require longer time. There should be hereulean efforts put forth to effect a restoration of the canal that trade may be resumed. It ix not only the lime, cement and stone. the prices of which e from fifteen to twenty per ce tha d, but the milling interests also, and it will not do to perm em to be aban- doned for want of water. The coal trade must not be abandoned before every effort is made to have the canal repaired and business re- sumed. EFFECT ON PRICES. Mr. W. P. Lipscomb, the builder, said he sup- posed that prices of certain building material would be higher in consequence of the lack of canal facilities. He had already been informed that brick would advance dollar on the thousaud. and he supposed that there would be a slight advance in lime and cement, He did not expect that the advance would be sufficient to interfere with building operations to any great eqtent. It might check what is known as sp: ve building. but he did not think that 1: would prevent anyone from build- ing who wished to have anew house. He did not know what the advance in lime andcement would be. Mr. J. B. Hammond. proprietor of planing mill, said a his opinion the cutting off of the canal would have a bad effect upon the business interests of the city generally. As far as his busiuess was concerned he would not be affected except in the event that Cumberland coal advanced price, as he supposed it would. All lumber supplies came over the railroad. He had not heard Y expressions of opmion from the builders, but whatever effected unfavorably one class of bus- iness had an influence on all the others, and he believed that the building trade would suffer, if uot so much direc ‘ate indirectly, if other interests in the comman were affect- ed unfavorabiy. Mr. W. Bruce Gray. the architect. was of the opinion that the increase in the cost of build- ing material, in consequence of the canal stop- in Page, would not amount to enough to effect upon buildiag operations in He said that lime and cement obtained elsewhere than in Maryland. he said, hi er be and even with the low ment and lime could in outside markets. stone from the quarries ed With the amount of stone from other sections of the country was small, and the cutting off of that supply, he thought, would not have the slightest influence upon the cost of building.

Walker, of Walker & Son, deal- when asked what he The people of he phrase, ‘slightly by the loc canal tolls not compete with The proportion of thought of the situation Georgetown should ade distigured Lut stillin the ring, at forth all energy to restore and business, If bus: in the old) burg” is ruined the interests of the whole District will sutfer. Much cement, lime and stone has Leen brought down by «l in the past, but it is virtually cut off from the District. It is time that the Ime and cement from way up the river may be bronght here by rail, but a little experieuce will soon show that the freights by rail run the prices higher than persons are willing to pay.

James | Dripps. and others in extensive building opera- | jon of the canal, if | amity for the entire | _Mr. C. B. Pearson, the manager of the Vir- gina brick company. which is located on the irginia side of the river, said that he did not think that the cutting off of the canal facilities would have very much effect upon the building interests. The materials brought over the canal are not much cheaper than when trans- ported on the railroad. “The canal anthori- ties,” he said, “have ail along been complain- ing that they could not compete with the rail- road rates, andsothe latter are probably quite reasonable. Unless there is a monoply and ad- vantage is taken of that fact.I don't look forward to any increase in the prices. Coal, I suppose, will be dearer, although I have no information as to that. Just now it can’t be had at all, but probably next week a supply will begin to come in over the railroads, The brickmakers on the Virginia side are just now dependent on the railroad company. They are in hope that the road over the Long bridge will be repaired. At present they have a long haul over the Aque- duct bridge. There has been no advance in the price of bricks so far, and I have not heard that there is to be. Our company is just now refasing orders, as we are going to look out for our regular customers. Mr. W. Morrison, the builder, said that he did not see how the abandonment of the canal would effect the building interests of the city, Everything, he said, that comes from upper Maryland can be procured in other directions, and in many cases at more favorable rates. Even when the canal was in operation a good deal of the cement, &c., was brought to the city by rail. He thought that the Georgetown milling interests would be affected for a time, but when a railroad was built the mills would be in a better condition than when the canal was being used. King & Emmons, builders, thought that there would be a slight increase in the cost of build- ing materials, but it would be so slight as not to be materially felt. There would. they thought. be some delay in getting bricks and coal, but in the course of a few weeks that dif- ficulty would be adjusted an ee DOWNED THE PHILLIES. The Washingtons Won the Game Satur- day and Captured a Shortstop. The Senatorial aggregation made a fine spurt in Philadeiphia Saturday and succeeded in cap- taring the third game from Harry Wright's ponies by the score of 7 to 5. This victory is not allthey bring away with them from the City of Brotherly Love, for close on the cheer- ing words about the game came a telegram from President Hewett saying that he had se- eured the release of Arthur Irwin, the short- stop of the Phillies, and wonld bring him home with Lim. Between these two statements the home patrons of the game were considerably exhilarated all day yesterday, and the deal and the victory formed the mai: topic of conversa- tion. TUE GAME. To speak of them in the order of their occur- rence, the game was won by the Senators by means of better fielding and more timely hit- ing. although their opponents outbatted them. Ferson and Mack, and Casey and Clements were the batteries. While some of the States- men could not touch Casey's delivery at all, others of them aceon upon it with all their power and banged the bail with great delight and still greater effect. Connie Mack was the hero of the day, making a hit every time he had a chance. “He was three times at’ the bat, and made two doubles and a single. every one of which helped the run-getting. Wilmot hit twice safely. while Myers, ight and Shoch each found the The fielding by the Phillies pf a ow tinge, and the ele- ment that aided the visitors to ti a scalp, Washington made $ hits and 4 errors, and Phil- adelphia 11 hits and 9 errors, OTHER GAMES, Cleveland won two games from Pittsburg and thus took second place in the league. The score of the first, in which Bakely and Snyder and Morris and Carroll were the batteries, was to 5. The Infants made 18 hits and 4 errors nd Pittsburg 8 hits and 6 errors. ‘The second game was calied at the end of the fifth inning, with the score standing 3 to 2 in favor of Cleve- land. O’Brien and Zimmer and Galvin and Miller were the batteries. Cleveland made 7 hits and no errors and Pittsburg 6 hits and 2 errors.

Pittsburg at Cleveland, Indianapolis at Chicsgo. The game played on Saturda; at Capitol park between the reporters and the policemen for the benetit of the police relief fund, was a revelation to people who had an idea that it would be a repetition of the first of the series, The score was 8 to6 and the game was close from start to finish. The policemen won be- cause they fielded better, and the reporters Jost becau on hitting.

He is usable a man to let go.” ‘The new deal will probably result in the lease of Shoch, who is at best utility man, Carney will more than fill the bill as an all- round player. There are one or two more re- leases on the gridiron, and they will un- doubtedly be announced this week. Irwin will play to-day against his old team.

THE BRICK INTER “What effect will the demolition of the Chesapeake and Obiv canal have upon the brick business of Washington?” asked a porter of Mr. T. L. Holbrook, preside: Washington Brick Machine company. “For tine the business will be seriously embarr said Mr. Holbrook, “on se- count icient supply of as fully three-fourths of the brick for this market are burned with coal brought down the canal. ‘The freight on canal coal was cousiderabiy less than that on rail ec makers received canal coal within tance of their brick yards. being forced to get their coal supply by rail will enhance the cost of coal and necessaril increase, to some extent, the cost of brick. Th increase, however, wil! not, in. my opinion, deter auy one from building. as brick required for a $20,000 house, if the price were increased a doliar a thousand. would not make a differ- euce of more than $200 in the cost of the house.” tof the m in: short dis- Sran re- | Most of the brick- | Tie brick-makers | suppressed, and it was not until alter the that Morrill has been after me | with | | | in and | | Parson, lots 1, 2and_ 3, block CATHOLIC KNIGHTS IN LINE.
