WHY THE PENNSYLVANIA ROAD WAS FORCED TO COME TO CONGRESS—TRE DEMANDS OF TRADE IN WASHINGTON—THE TRADE OF THE WHOLE WEST INTERESTED IX THE MATTER. Mr. Barclay in his ar argument before the House District committee yesterday in defense of the Pennsylvania road, replying to the rep- resentations of the members of the Board of ‘Trade, said that it was not fair to quote the criticisms of the minorities of committees upon the railroad and declared that the majorities of the congressional committees bad made re- ports favorable to the road. After the investi- gation by the Morrill subcommittee that Mr. Noyes had referred to the full committee had reported favorably to the Senate a bill much more liberal to the road than the one now pro- posed. He said it was to meet THE DEMANDS OF TRADE IN WASHINGTON that they were forced tocome to Congress. The road was willing to buy land for the accom- modation of its freight and cars so as to get them off the street, but it was of no avail to do this as they could notlay the side tracks to reach any property they might buy. He m- ferred to the purchase of the tract across 14th street near Long bridge and their failure to get into itas anexample. Mr. Noyes had said this tract was inadequate—tht showed how much he knew about it—more the rail- road company knew. The company had bought that ground for a certain Purpose and it was adequate. At this point Mr. Noyes stated that what he had said about the inadequacy of the space he had got from President Roberts’ answer to a question when he was before the Senate com- son, part 59, sq. 544; €—.

Hail, Pennsylvania avenue, Wednesday even- ing, to which the lady friends of the post were invited and were present in large numbers. Comrade J. 8. Erly, chairman of the committee on entertainment, welcomed those present on behalf of the postand gave a short sketch of the organization. ‘This post was organized March 27, 1467, in_the old Capitol prison, with ten members, After the death of Kit Carsun, who was a member of the post, the post adopted his name. From the small beginning of ten it has grown until it bas become one of the largest posts im the organization. Its rolls show the names of Fremont, Kit Carson, Ammen, Baird, Kelly, Payne, Van Vliet, Bur- dett and many otaers’ noted’ during the late war. Burdett also had the honor of being commander-in-chief of the G.A.R. ‘The only member, at presentin good standing, of the = who was present at its organization is ast Commander L. M. Cutler, now an employe of the U. senate. The program consisted of a drill ‘e xteen young ladies of the Maury School (all daughters of veterans),a piano solo by Bessie Erly, an exhibition of Edisou’s pho- nograph (kindly loaned by Gerstenberg, 1413 Pennsylvania avenue), ventriloquism by Prof. Cross, recitations’ by little Rosalie Bartiett and Mr. Willasey and speeches by Senator Hawley, Gens. Van Dervier and Burnett and Past Jumor Vice Department Commander of New York J, C. Carlyle. Kit Carson fife and drum corps was ou hand and made the vets for the time being forget their aches and pains. The exer- cises were conducted by Comrade Cutler. a A Dishonor to Jackson, To the Editor of Tae EveNrxe Sran: It must appear to every sensible man on a moment's thought that the dishonor to the memory of Ger. Jackson will be done not by removing his statue to another circle, but by leaving it where it is, if the Lafayette monu- ment is to be erected in the same square. Not only will the name “Lafayette Square” itself give pre-eminence to the Frenchman's monu- ment as the rightful possessor of the place and thus make the Jackson statue as an in- truder, but the undoubted superiority of the new monument in dimensions and in excellence will put the old one most unfor- tunately mto the shade. Moreover, the prox- imity of the two is sure to be detrimental to the artistic enjoyment of both. The Jackson will be hidden from the White House; the Lafayette will be obstructed as seen from the north and there will be a hopeless incongruity of forms in seeing the two Unques- Honably the thing to do is to put the Lafayette nm the middle of the square named for him oad to find another and a suitable site for Jackson monument, where it will not be into the shade and it would tentionally humiliated by cont monument close beside i.

Barclay said that the company had had pernita from the Commissioners of the Dis- trict for all the sido tracks they had laid; but the road had been annoyed by suits and inter- fered with in all its progressive movements. They had bought ground for a round house so as to keep the engines off the street. It hap- pened that there was a little church near the property, ‘The church was worth about 37,000, but the congregation had already got judgments for $19,000 against the road for maintaining 4 nuisance, The church beoognt suits periodically. To escape this the road had gone out near the tun- nel and bought ground on which they built a round house, They got permits from the Com- missioners to lay their side tracks and laid them over the old canal bed. Now, he suid, they were under indictment for this. He said the road did nothing in an underhand way; its representatives came frankly and said what they wanted. They were willing to goto Ben- nings’ point, but this would be A DEATH BLOW TO TRADE IN WASHINGTON, The trouble was, he said, that the people in the city did not know what they wanted. Some wanted the road one place and some another, according to how they thought it would affect their personal interests, Some wanted the depot moved to some out-of-the-way piece others wanted it sunk in a sewer—it might be'a grave for the Lord knows how many in case of a flood. The fact was, he said, that the road was doing the best it could. None of the plans a were practicable. Gentlemen who now nothing about railroad matters did not consider the immense expense of making the changes proposed. ‘The ruad could not afford the expense in the first place, and the plans were not practicable, anyhow. What would become of trade here while they were sinking their tracks? Mr. Grout asked if the Baltimore and Po- tomac railroad was a paying institution. Mr. Barclay ceplied that it was not paying dividends on the capital stock. OTHER CITIES REFERRED TO, Referring to what had been said about the improvements in Philadelphia and other cities— the liberal policy of the road in these cities— he said that the citics paid part of the expense. Philadelphia, he said, was girdled with tracks, and along Delaware avenue there were eighty- four sidings. The road occupied, he said, 1,500 acres of land in the city. He wanted to know if it was proposed to erect « Chinese wall around this city of Washington. The gentle- men of the Board of Trade had said we want this, and we don’t want that, He would remind the committee that THE TRADE OF THE WHOLE COAST WAS INTER- ESTED in the transportation facilities here and they could not be interrupted at the whim of a few people here. Every state from Georgia to New England was interested. He disputed the right of the people here to say anything or to stand in the way of progress. If in the future the road could do anything to correct the evils complained of they would, and would do it as soon as possible. ecaaleeicas Ruxyrvo Races at Benninas.—Special trains for Washington Jockey Ciub track will leave 6th street station 12:05 noon, 1:30, 2 and 2:30 p.m. on race days, beginning Tuesday (1st) and | continuing until Saturday (5th).

If fortune should ever ever cease to emile on Sen- ator Wade Hampton and he should find it ee ee he could take of an elevator and run oe the satisfaction of the nervously alarmed old lady that ever had her lungs jolted out of place by a thoughtless cable operator. He showed his skill Thursday even- ing and although it was done in secret session, 80 to speak, the facts in the case leaked into the aural appendages of a Star reporter. Down in the subbasement of the Senate wing are numerous committee rooms and rooms for the use of Senators who are at the head of a committee, Into ono of these yesterday afternoon went Senators Blackburn and Wade Hampton, and there they remained foe quite along time. ‘The Senate got tired of working, aud a hundred electric belisannounced adjournment, but the Keatnckian and the South Carolinian tarried in ignorance of what had occurred overhead, for there are as yet no bells in the new rooms. After awhile darkness began to steal with its accustomed noiselessness all over the lanscape nthe suggestion was made that it might be a good thing to go up- stairs and see what the rest of the legislators were doing. Slowly the Sen- ators moved along the subterranean way, and when they arrived at the bottom of the ele- vator shaft they were horrified to see that the elevator man liad gone home. That looked just as though two Senators would have to walk all the way around and up several hard and lengthy flights of steps. Sorrowful countenances and half-smothered groans were in order, but Senator Hampton Jooked sad only for a moment. “Get inside, Blackburn,” said he. “I'll bet yon the seltzer that I can ran the machine.” Of course, the Kentuckian couldn't be bluffed in that way; 80, after a feeble remonstrance, he went in and was followed by the venerable eolleague of Senator Butler, “Hampton,” said Blackburn, “You once said j your address was Columbia, S.C.; where do ‘ou suppose it will be after we get started? You will never get it stopped.” a “You keep your seat,” rejoined Mr, Hamp- ton, parodying ik Monk, :‘and ll put you through on tin With many misgivings did Mr. Blackburn watch his friend ashe tugged at the rope both Ways, so as to find out how she started, and the Kentuckian’s heart was endeavoring to wear out his palate when the elevator broke away from its moorings and soared heavenward. They reached the floor of the Senate all right and got out safely.
