Edttor, THE EVENING STAR has the fullest Local Cireulation of any Newspaper in the World, and as an Adv: Medium is worth mere than all the other papers published in Wasbington. oS See Hew York Office: Room 93, Tribune Building. Yesterday was an important day in Washing- ton’s history. The water was tarned on in the new big main, marking an actual increase in the city's water supply, and the new bridge seross the Eastern branch was opened to travel, Tedious and exssperating delays have characterized both of these works, The tun- nel frauds postponed the increase of the water supply, and the completion of the new means of communication across the Anacostia was obstructed until the Pennsylvama rail- road could give Uncle Sam and the U. & army a thorough and undeserved drub- bing, and until the impediments to the work eaused by the food could be removed. Both improvements have been accomplished with wanecessary expense. The million dollars which the United States sunk in the abandoned tunnel, and which it extorts from the District, and the additional cost of the bridge to make it conform to the wishes of the railroad, and the expense of the delays, make a larg total, But the District rejoices in what it this day enjoys, seeks to forget the long deferring of its hopes and trusts to further advances on the same lines of improvement in the immediate future, ‘The water committee of the board of trade, the board itself, and the public generally ought to make a decided stand against the pro- posed robbery of the water-takers of Washing- ton of a million dollars, to pay for worthless work which they did not order and over which they bad no control, and for an increase of the water supply which they did not get. They pay their share of the cost of the main which actually brings them the water, and they pay a water main tax and rents for the water which they actually receive, The United States ought to meet the entire loss caused by the neglect snd blundering of its agents. The ad- vance inthe matter of bridge improvement will consist in spanning the waterways which separate the city from portions of its natural suburbe with numerous structures, adequate to the requirements of travel and in appearance creditable to the capital. The Po- tomac needs @ magnificent bridge, which shall abolish the nuisance and disgrace of the present Long Bridge, and the sections of country be- yond the Eastern branch and Rock creek re- quire additional bridges across these water- ways. The Atkinson bill legalizing the illegal acts of the Baltimore and Potomac railroad and giving it additional privileges ignores entirely the requests of the board of trade for accom- pauying improvement of the conditions of the road's occupation for the benefit of the people, and asks precisely what Vice President King said that the road would ask in his unsatisfac- tory interview with the board of trade com- mittee, The board replies to this re- quest, and in so doing it voices the public sentiment, that there should be no pardon for past offences, and uo grant of additional privileges without substantiat con- cessions to the public in the sinking and bridg- ing of its tracks and surrender to the people of the public reservations. The Atkinson bill is one of the most dangerous to the interests of Washington which has ever been introduced in Congress. Its passage without the suggested provisions for tae benefit of the people would deprive the city of every hold which it has upon the road to induce it to make the same improvements here which it makes in other cities. The @vil of the present surface tracks would be fixed permancntly upon Washington. ‘The past lawlessness of the road would be in- dorsed by the lawmakers, and the interests of the capital would be entirely abandoned by its Jegislature. The proposition is outrageous, a The fine general scheme of street nomen- ciature in Washington is broken by the go-as- you-please style, or rather lack of style, that characterizes the naming of the sub-streets, alleys and so forth. The directory of the pres- ent year contains the names of 912 of these b-ways, Over two hundred of them are du- plicates. There are six Washington, seven Lincoln and five Grant streets or alleya. Han- cock figures both as circle and avenue. Honor tosuch men should be unstinted, but noffat the risk of a confusion in nomenclature de- structive of all public convenience, Letus have some better plan with a greater variety of names for our new circles, avenues, alleys and other sub-ways. There are distinguished and suitable names in abundance. Any conceiva- ble plan is better than none at all, pennies vinta The appointment of Caprivi in place of Bis- mar¢k indicates very probably the adoption of am aggressive foreign policy by Germany, al- though the late corps commander and whilom head of the navy is not to have immediate charge of foreign relations in the new cabinet. Count Waldersee, the emperor's chief of staff, sad ou whom it was formerly supposed Bis- marck’s heavy mantle would fall, has been dis- missed, The extensive changes made on the day the Iron Chancellor's resignation was ac- cepted point to a radical breaking away from old lines, Tne European opinion is apparently unfavorable. Even in quarters such as France and England, where Bismarck was most dis- liked, the expressions of admiration for the re- tiring statesmen have been unstinted. ——— Gen. George Crook, the famous Indian fighter, died early this morning in Chicago of heart disease. His life, well known to all Americans, was romance. The most during and successful of our later leaders against the Indians he is a picturesque figure in our mili- tary history, and his death is regretted in all circles, Baltimore has organized an anti-civil-service republican league composed of nineteen clubs, These men are not in line with the great or- gans of public opinion in their party or the in- telligent public opinion of their country. a ‘The Gefeat of the Blair billin the Senate, after having in previous Congresses passed that body twice, was no great surprise to those who have watched the trend of public opinion, which in the south expecially has for some time past been aguinst the measure. oo It was possible to play the grand monarch in ‘the seventeenth century in France; it was not possible in England where a King lost his head ju the attempt.
