THE WASHINGTON LOAN AND TRUST COMPANY. Another Important Business Enter- prise. The Washington Loan and Trust Company, which was incorporated on the 15th day of Au- ust, 1889, has about completed fitting up its tem- porary offices at the northwest corner of 10thand F streets and will open Monday morning ready for business. The company will remain at this location until it can secure larger and more commodious quarters elsewhere. As the loan and trust business is a new thing in the Dis- triet of Columbia and bids fair to do much for the financial interests of Washington some par- ticulars of this new enterprise will be of in- terest. The officers and directors of the com- pany, embracing some of the leading financial men of the District, are as follows: OFFICERS. Brainard H, Warner, president. John Joy Edson, vice president, Charles P, Williams, secretary. Wm. B. Gurley, acting treasurer, John B.Larner,general counsel; J.J, Darling- ton. d 8.

Dobson will address the member- ship cf Beacon lodge on Monday evening next and Friendship lodge on Thursday, 24th inst, Grand Master Frazier desires that at the vis- itation. there shall be no floor work of either of the degrees exemplified. Grand Patriarch Norway and Grand Repre- sentative Dufour were enthusiastic in their praises at the manner in which the secret work of the Patriarchal degrees were given by the officers gf Magenenu encampment, No. 4, at their recent visit. The Patriarchal degree will be fully conferred atthe meeting of Novem- r 8. Harmony lodge, No. 9. Navy Yard, received a visit from Brother Hilton Howard of Mount Roulstone lodge, No. 93, of Fitchburg, Mass. The general memorial day of the order has been changed to the second Taesday in June in each year. The services of the present year will be held on or about October 20. ‘The Sovereign Grand lodge at its last ses- sion deemed it inexpedient to legislate so as to enable a number of lodges in a city to compel others to contribute their funds for purposes Other than those required by existing laws. The chairman of the judiciary committee of the Sovereign Grand lodge, Mark D. Brainard, is an earnest. painstaking worker, not given to occupying the time of that body with speeches, but doing his laborious work in a quiet, effect- ive mauner. Past Noble Grand Sarah M. Sanderson of Na- omi lodge, No. 1, Rebekah degree, gave an interesting account of her stewardship as dele- te to the late convention of the degree at ‘olumbus, which was followed by the eloquence of her colleague, Sister Jeannetta W. Grumiey, in an extemporaneous report. ‘The speech of Clark P. Crandall, past grand master, before the members of Excelsior and Metropolis lodges during the past week was fuil of eloquence and abounded in interesting reminiscences of his connection with the order while in the far west. The fair to be held by Union lodge, No. 11, at Odd Fellows’ hall, Navy Yard, commencing next Wednesday, has for its object the raising of funds to builda home for the lodge. The energetic committee in charge are working hard to make the evenings spent with them both pleasant and agreeable. ‘The fourth quarterly meeting of the 1.0.0.F. Veteran association was held on Wednesday | evening la.t in the Blu» Koom of the 7th street | O.F. ball, John T. Given, past grand master, | presiding. After the reception of two members of the order who have attained the requisite nutaber of years (21) of consecutive member- ship in a subordinate lodge and the transaction | Of routine business the association adjourned to meet on the 15th of January next.

Friendship lodge, No. 12, located corner 20th and Peonsylvania avenue northwest, are en- ed, under the tuition of Past Grand H. W. ings. in preparations to receive the expected Visit from the graud officers. David Hammersley was duly installed vice grand of Federal City lodge, No, 20, located corner of 11th and Maryland avenue southwest. Wasbington lodge, No. 6, will hold their memorial services in their lodge room next Tuesday evening, to which all their friends are invited. Eastern lodge, No. 7, after attending to the regular business of the lodge, adjourned to attend the visitation of the grand officers to Metropolis lodge, No. 16, headed by the noble id, James W. Crampton, Secretary Samuel E' Boyce aud Past Grand Master Petty. The lodge in large numbers made quite a display in their march through the streets to pay the fraternal visit. ——____ PENSION OFFICE WORK. Recommendations of Commissioner Tan- ner in «tis Annual Report. Ths Secretary of the Interior last even- img gave to the press the report of Com- Missiuer Tanner, detailing the work of the pensi nofi-: . ring the past year. This re- port was submitted some time before Mr. Tan- Rer’s resignation. It shows that the names of 61,921 new pensioners were added to the rolls during the last tiscal year, but a number were dropped leaving a net increase of 37.168 names. The total number of pensioners is 489.725. The average annual peusion is 9131.18, and the total amount paid during the year for pensiors Was $88,275,113. ‘The report contains a number of recommen- dations, Li is urged that the law be so amended asto permit the rate of #72 per month to be proportionately divided for all disabilities which are shown to have been incident to the service aud line of duty. An adjustment of rates for total helplessness is recommended. ‘The injustice and unfuirness caused by the law of June 16, 1890, should be corrected. This act, he says, limits the right to receive per month to thosg who were receiving $50 per month at the date of the law. The commis- sioner also recommends “that a pension be granted to every honorably discharged soldier and sailor who is now, or who may hereafter be- come disabled. and without regard to whether such disability is chargeable to the service of ‘the United States or has been contracted since discharge therefrom.” The commissioner renews the requests made by his predecessor for additional clerical force, asking specificaliy for 300 additional clerk and in justification of this request adds: sidering that there are now pending 479,000 claims of all classes, and that it is twenty-four years since the war closed, it seems to me there are sufficient reasons for asking that ad- ditional force be put upon this work to enable those entitled to pension to get the benefit of it while they live.

The Progress of Improvements in the Eastern Section of the City. THE ISSUE OF IMPROVEMENT BONDS 48 ADVO- CATED BY CAPT. STMONS—NEW HOUSES ERECTED IN VARIOUS PARTS OF THE CITY— OTHER MATTERS OF INTEREST. One of the largest real estate transactions recently made was the sale of the greater part of square 855. This square lies near the en- trance to the grounds of Kendall Green and is bounded by L, M, 6th and 7th streets north- east. It was purchased afew months ago by Senator Cameron, Jas. Loundes and W. Pitt Kellogg and by them subdivided. As the Square was unusually deep two streets were opened through it from east to west and the lots were given a frontage of twenty feet on all the streets, The agents in charge of the prop- erty, Thomas J, Fisher & Co., have recently sold nearly all the outside lots, Some of the purchasers were as follows: Allen C, Clark, thirteen lots on 6th street and seven lots on 7th street; Geo. A. Jordan, seventzen lots on L street and eleven lots onM street; R, H. Edlen, six lots on L street and six lotson Boundary street; Mergan Thomas, three lots at the cor- ner of 7th and L streets. The prices obtained ranged from forty to fifty cents per square foot, It is the intention to Se the improvement of the square by the erection of several houses. _ There has na good deal of activity dur- ing the past 7ear in property in this vicinity, and the number of new houses already built or in progress of erection show that the move- ment is a substantial one. Still further east a number of houses haye been erected along the bounds of the city, and in the case of the Trinidad property beyond the boundary lines, All that section of the city lying uorth of H street and east of North Capitol street has felt the influence of the improvements which have been in progress, and now houses are seen where a short time ago the vacant squares formed long stretghes of commons. South of H street to East Capitol street and beyond the new houses are the noticeable feature. Those interested in property in the eastern section of the city predict a continuance of the build- ing activity. They look forward to imcreased appropriations for street improvements at the next session of Congress, and they also expect that the additional street car facilities which are needed will also be authorized by Congress. THE PROPOSED IMPROVEMENT BONDS. The plan of Capt, Symons, as outlined in his annual report, for the issue of three per cent bonds to provide for such improvements as the extension of streets and the establishment of the Rock creek park, is quite generally. dis- cussed. While the issue of bonds to meet the expenditnre for proposed improvements is not @ new proposition in this city, yet it has never perhaps before been advocated so strongly in an official report. A reul estate dealer, in con- yersation with a Star reporter on this subject, said that the bill introduced three years ago in the Senate by Mr. Mahoue provided for the issue of three per cent bonds. This bill au- thorized the extersion of the principal streets and the acquisition of the necessary land for the Rock creek park. “At that time,” he said, “it was thought that two million and a half of dollars would be suf- ficient to defray the expense of both of these undertakings. Now Capt. Symons estimates that it will take twice that amount to do the very same thing. This only shows how the value of property in the vicinity of this city is appreciating in value, and it also points the moral that any further delay will be costly.” In financial circles such an issue of bonds is looked upon as practicable, and a prominent banker told a Stan reporter that, in his opin- ion, a 3 per cent bond issued under the same guarantee as the 3.65 bond would at once com- ports & premium probably as high as 10 per cent. SUBURBAN SUBDIVISIONS. There is another recommendation in Capt. Symons’ report which is of interest to all own- ers of suburban subdivisions not yet recorded, He advises legislation forbidding the recorder of deeds to record any deed of trust or deed of transfer or any papers of similar import unless satisfactory evidence is produced to show that the land in question is properly recorded as deeded in the office of the surveyor of the Dis- trict. As Capt. Symons says, this is intended to Le 2 een the law of August 27, 1838, pro- hibiting the recording of ee subdivision unless made in conformity with the plan of the city. Under the present law it is possible for the owner of suburban land to make any subdi- yision they see fit and file a copy with a deed in the office of the recorder of deeds. This does not make the streets public streets, as ths subdivision t first be accepted by the Dis- trict Commissioners, but it enables the owners to give a title to the lots, and in this way the Jaw of 1888 ean be evaded. INCREASE JN THE REAL ESTATE BUSINESS, A veteran real estate dopler was talking the other day about the number of real estate brokers in the city, He said that he thought there must be between three and four hundred now engaged in that business. A Stax reporter ventured the remark that he probably had found that out by the falling off. of his own busi- ness. “Not at rei said the dealer with a good natured laugh, ‘Twenty years ago all the real estate business in this city was done by two or three men. They could not begin to do it today evenif they had the chance. You see the business has increased. There is more money invested here in a week than there used to be in months. There is more Hpeef to invest. The population has increased an everythin, about the city ison larger scale than it use to be. So you see there is no reason why there should not be an increase in the number of real estate men. Like nearly every other busi- ness it is a good deal a matter of acquaintance. A man has his friends and they deal with him, alihough in doing so they may pass by a num- ber of brokers’ offices.” A ROW OF NEW HOUSES. The southwest corner of 17th and P streets is to be improved by the erection of seven houses. The plans are now being prepared by Mr. Geo, W. Cooper, architect. The houses will be three stories in height and will be built of brick, with stone basements, es a FATHER McFADDEN’S TRIAL. The Story of the Killing and the Priest’s Part in it. Two hundred additional policemen arrived at Maryborough from Dublin yesterday to take part in Father McFadden's trial. A London dispatch says: The main object of the crown attorney appears to be to blacken the character of the accused priest and to destroy his popu- larity with the people. One of the crown wit- nesses swears that before Martin was struck at ail he saw Father McFadden with blood run- ning down hisace, evidently from a wound on the head. The particulars of the killing of Martin are as follows: Inspector Martin and a large force of police went to the village of Falcarragh on Sunday, February 3, to arrest Father McFad- den, for whom a warrant under coercion act had been ovtstaading for some time. The warrant had not been served, as Father Mc- Fadden’s house was guarded by his parishion- ers, Martin’s ge was to arrest the priest as he left the church after celebrating mass. No notification was given to Father McFadden of the intended arrest during the morning, or, he avers, he would have surrendered to avert the conflict between the ed force of constabu- lary and his people which was inevitable under BASE BALL IN 1890. Players Reserved by the League and Association Clubs for the Next Season. WASHINGTON WILL BE IN THE LEAGUE WITH SUB- STANTIAL BACKING AND WILL WoT BE TAIL ENDER —THE XXPECTED ‘CO-OPERATIVE SCHEME.”—THE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP GAMES. Tomorrow morning the official lists of players reserved by the clubs of the league and Ameri- can association for the season of 1890 will be promulgated. It will be found that the list will contain the names of those brotherhood players who have been prominently mentioned during the latter partof the season as the leaders and participants in the expected ‘‘co- operative scheme.” Then the fun will begin. Assoon as the reserves are made the mag- nates will begin to present blank contracts to their players _to sign, and it will then be seen how much back bone there is in the reported plan, which has been repudiated as unfounded by the leaders of the brotherhood. Washing- ton’s list will probably contain the names of Ferson, Haddock, Mack, Daly, Wilmot, Hoy, b foe the Irwins, Riddle, Beecher, Krock and larke. WASHINGTON IN THE LEAGUE ON A SOLID BASIS. The question of a club being here next season is still unsettled, but Tax Star still adheres to its prophetic announcement some weeks ago that Washington will be in the league in ‘90. It is understood that a gentleman well known in this city has come forward with the necessary oat and that he and Walter Hewett will be sole owners of the club. The stock will be about doubled and there will be ample means for the purchase of players and the general im- provement of the team, It is more than likely thata change will be made in the uew rules, so that visiting clubs will receive 40 per cent of the gate renee and under such a planeven a tail end club would pay here, for the crowds in the other cities would more than make up any deficien- cies there might be at home. WILL NOT BE A TAIL ENDER. But if Washington has. a league club it will not be a tailender. Urider an efficient man- agement at the start of the past season the club would have been a place holder at the end, and the prospect is good that with the expenditure of money there will be such improvements in the team that it can reasonably aspire to several pointe higher than has been its fate ever since it entered the league. THE WORLD'S CHAMPIONSHIP GAME YESTERDAY. The first game of the world’s championship series between New York and Brooklyn was played on the Polo grounds yesterday after- noon and resulted in a victory for Broo! ya by the score of 12 to 10—eight innings. Keefe and Ewing and Terry and Clark were the bat- teries. There were fully 10,000 people present. Brooklyn won by luckier batting,making 14 hite and 6 errors, and New York 11 hits and errors, PICKED UP. President Hewett of the Washington club, while in this city recently, declared to Presi- dent Nimick that he intended to keep his club in the league despite all reports. He admitted not making any money the past season, but still didn't lose any. The report that Cincinnati would take Washington's place is therefore a little premature.—Pitisburg Post. Treasurer Howe of the Cleveland says that the lowest salaried man in the Cleveland club receives more money than either one of half a dozen New York players that he could name. The avetage Cleveland salary, the treasurer says, is about $2,000. Treasurer Howe is wrong. There is not a man on the New York team who receives less than $2,000, with one possible ex- bad cee gre York Press. his is the team Louisville maw to turn ill play out next season: Latham wi third base and captain the team; Ewing and Ebret will be reinforced in tfe box by young Keefe of Syra- cuse, a brother of the famous pitcher of the New Yorks: McQueery and Childs, who also played under Manager Chapman during the past season, will be on first and second bases; a short stop und outfielder will also be secured, and altogether the club will bear an entirely different appearance next April,—J’hiladelphia Inquirer, Dox’?
