The Commissioners Not in Favor of the Georgetown and Kendall Green R.R. Tae Star has heretofore mentioned the bill which was referred to the District Commis- sioners to charter the Kendall Green and Georgetown railroad. After carefully consid- ering the bill Maj. Raymond today submitted the following report, which was adopted by the Commissioners and sent to Congress: Two petitions have been received having ref- erence to this bill, which are transmitted here- with, One is from a large number of owners of realestate fronting on M street and the occupants of premises on the same street re- monstrating against the passage of the bill on the ground that M street isa narrow resi- dence street, anda railway through it would be an injury to property and is not required for public use or convenience. The other petition is from the residents of Kendall Green urging the passage of the bill on the ground of the advantage which such a road would be to them. Iam of the opinion that the needs of Kendall Green can be su} applied with much less incovenience to the public by a branch con- necting with some existing line. The railway ro) will not in my opinion be of sufficient enefit and convenience to the public to justify its constrnction through a narrow residence street in opposition to the wishes of property owners and residents, —$—$——__—— Serious Accident at the Navy Yard.

He receivered an academic edu- cation at Yale college, graduating in 1876, and then he took a diploma from the Columbia law school in 1878, He began the practice of law in the office of Senator Davis at st. Paul. When his father became Secretary of State in the ad- ministration of President Garfield Walker was appointed third assistant secretary, the post now held by Mr. Moore. Shortly after his ap- pointment he was sent with Mr. Wm. H. Tres- cott to Chili to investigate the claims of certain American citizens against the Chilian govern- meut, Wien Mr, Arthur became President Mr, Blaine resigned his position. Upon the organi- zation, in 1533, of the court of Alabama claime | | Walker Blaine’ was appointed assistant to ex- | Postmaster General Cresswell, principal coun- sel for the government.

Socially he was extremely popular and his death will be mourned in avery large circle, both in Wash- ington and elsewere, He was unmarried, A little less than a See ago he fell from a car- riage step and brok his leg.

She afterward withdrew the objection and the tree was re- moved on Tuesday last. This moenion Mrs. Grafton, the owner of the property, with her attorney, Mr. H. O. Claugh- ton, called on Maj.
