OAK VIEW TO BE DIVIDED UP INTO CITY 1.0rs— THE PARTY WALL QUESTION—THE FRECTION OF LARGE BUSINESS BUILDINGS—OTHER MAT- ‘TERS OF INTEREST. There has been as yet no definite outcome from the conference between the representa- tives of labor organizations and employers iv regard to inaugurating the eight-hour system in this city on the ist of May. The whole subject was talked over at a meeting of the committee of the Dis- trict Assembly, Knights of Labor, and the exe- ecutive board of the Builders’ Exchange. The labor representatives ashed that the builders unite with them in introducing the eight-hour system, It was proposed to begin the eight- hour day on the Ist of May next, due allowance being made for contracts already entered upon. This proposition was not put in the form of a demand, nor was it intimated that unless the Tequest was granted an attempt would be made to enforce it by a strike. The conference was merely an interchange of views, and the practical questions involved in the proposed change were discussed. The amicable feeling that existed was indicated by the statement made on behaif of the builders that they had no objection to grarting the request, but they wete apprehensive that th ance in the cost f building resulting from this change would have the effect of checking building operations. In other words the position of the employers was that they were willing to agree to the eight- hour day if the people who build and who would have to pay the advance in prices made no ob- jection, The labor representatives said that they had no wish to retard building operations, but that the demand for the eight-hour day, which bad been agitated for so many years, must be acceded to at some time, and now seemed to be as good as timeasany. They quoted estimates to show that the cost of building under the operation of the eight-hour day would only be increased about three per cent., an increase in the total cost of the house which would hardly be felt, This estimate was based upon the calculation that the cost of labor in a building was about one-third of the total ex- Penditure. the ground representing another third and the material the other third. It was argued that materials advance in price, the recent advance inthe price of bricks being quoted as an example; that ground increases in value, and yet no complaint is made that build- ing operations are checked and that the pros- perity of the city is retarded because of these advances, It was thought that it was hardly just to the mechanics to urge this objection. ‘The couference adjourned with the under- standing that the Builders’ Exchange would a@nnouace some conclusion upon the proposi- tion made on behalf of the mechanics. It is | Probable that some definite resuit will be reached before the Ist of May. In the labor organizations the matter has been discussed during the past winter, but it is said that there seems to be no disposition to force the issue. The recent movement in other cities, however, is being watched with considerable interest and the effect here of the agitation may cause a de- cided change of policy. The present disposi- tion of both ides is to avoid a strike, and the method of agitating the question thus far em- ployed is an evidence that a peaceful and ami- cable adjustment is generaily desired. OAK VIEW TO BE SUBDIVIDED. The lawn and grounds about Oak View, the former country residence of ex-President Cleve- land, is to be divided up into city squares, The graceful slopes of green grass, extending from the roadway to the house, is to be seared wi h broad bands of clay, marking the lines of the streets, and the 4 regularities which, from another point of view, are called picturesque, will be leveled off to make level building sites, The house itself will remain untouched, as it is so located that the proposed streets will not interfere withit. There will be a good deal of ground left about the house. The new streets will conform to those already laid out on Cleve- land Heights, which adjoins it on the east, The latter subdivision has been very much im- Proved. All the streets are bordered with grass, there are gutters, some brick sidewalke, and trees planted with boxes shining in all the glory of a fresh coat of white wash. Now that the grass is growing green, Cleveland Heights in its new dress present a very attractive ap- pearance, and if the Oak View grounds are made to lvok as well the locality will not lose much in picturesqueness because of this change. The streets continued through Oak View will give a continuous drive from the Tenleytown road to Gardiner Hubbard's, with its fine villa residence built in the colonial style. Mr. F. G. Newlands, who is one of the new owners of Oak View, will probably occupy Oak View as a residence this summer. The plough and the shovel are doing what they can to transform the old Kengla place, farther south on the road, into a suburban town site, The same agencies will, no doubt, be found at work in other places in this local ity, and those interested in lot: of the opin- ion that there will be some houses erected up that way this season. The tide of travel up and down the Tenleytown road is always large in the spring. Every pleasant evening the road is thronged with carriages and people on horseback. ‘They enjoy the view thicn the high elevation affords and the pure air. Two clubs also have their houses in this locality, and these places are pleasant resorts for mem- bers and their friends. The road is becom- ing such a popular drive that peo- le are saying that it ought to @ widened and improved, so that it will be a splendid boulevard. Now that the ground is cheap, that is, cheaper than it promises to be some years hence. it is a good time tosecure the necessary land, and people who use the road for a drive intend to call the attention of the proper authorities to this mat- ter. TE PARTY WALL QUESTION. It is proposed to make @ test case and deter- mine the soundness of the conclusion reached by the assistant attorney for the District that the right to erect a party wall ig an easement that goes with the land. Whether a man has a right to build an individual wall or is obliged to build a party wall is an important question, but its practical bearing on building operations in this city is comparatively slight. The reason is that very few buildings are erected with indi- vidual wails. ‘The privileges conferred by the right to erect party walls are too highly val- ued. A party wall saves valuable space, it di- vides the cost of each wall between the builder and his neighbor and its existence com- pels the builder to underpin at his own expense the wall in case his excavation goes below the foundations of the adjoining house. If an in- dividual wall is built and the excavation for the foundations of the adjoining house are deep enough to make underpinning necessa then the expense of this work falls on the owner of the house and not on his neighbor whois building. These advantages of a party wall over an individual wall are so generally appreciated that there are very few cases in the city of buildings without party wall But still the decision of the case will be watched with interest, as those who prefer this style of | building will not care to lose the option which they now enjoy of choosing between a party wali and an individual wall. MASSACHUSETTS AVENUE EXTENDED, The first houses to be erected on Massachu- setts avenue extended are now being built. They will both be located near Boundary street, and although outside of the city the owners cap still claim to be practically liviug within the city. Mra, E. D. Lovett ia building one of these houses, and Mrs. B. H. Beamon the other, Mrs. Lovett was oue of the owners of the tract known as Kalorama, and in the division after the subdivision had been made a number of lots were assigned as her share. She is erect- ing her new house on a portion of the old homestead, but under the present changed ap- pearance of the property there iw not much to remind one of Kaloruma,once covered with fine oak trees and with its picturesque stretch of grassy fields and shaded nooks, LARGE BUSINESS BUILDINGS. An unusual sumber of large business build- ings are now in the course of erection in this city. People are reminded of this fact who are in the business centers by the clouds of dust which fill their eyes and by the necessity of picking their way around the debris. The erection of the large building at the southwest corner of 9th and Loan and Trust Company has made it necessary for the transfer agent of the street railway com- pany to take his position on the opposite cor- ner. Below this point on 9th street the Inter- Ocean bailding is rearing its tall wails to the sky, while the National Union Insurance building on F street between 9th and 10th streets, which is now being built, will exceed it in height. A large building, but not a very tall oue, is going up at the southwest corner of 11th G streets, while on the same corner of 12th and F streets a structure is to be built that will be seven or eight stories in height, The building season generally is said to be very good at the build- ing ii tor's office. The permits already is- sued exceed those of the corresponding period last year, but it is said that are more small houses being put up than was the case last year. PROTECTION FROM FIRE. One of the features of the construction of the new building for the Congressional Library is streets by the Washington | | | | } | | 5; ) Boucher, pitchers; Kuhn and Rackey, catchers; 11 that in the whole of that immense stracture there will be no fire, The building will, of course, be heated and comfortably too, but the source of the heat will be located outside the building. Vaults will be constructed in he grounds where the fires and boilers will be placed, and the hot air will be carried into the library building by means of pipes, Architect ripetinele heh ng organ op =a plete protection ag: ire that origi- nate from the heating apparatus, SUBURBAN NoTES, The board of directors of Berwyn, the new subdivision on the Baltimore and Qhio road, yesterday decided to improve the various ave- nues of the place as soon as the necessary sur- veying is completed. Sales of lots are pro- gressing and houses will be at once erected. A pretty church is under contract, for which the company donated o lot, and an experimental station of the U.8, Agricultural Department is promised. Messrs. Francis R, Fave, Jr., & Co., civil en- gineers, have extended 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th streets east across the branch into the former Knox property, now belonging to Mr. E. A. Randle, The engineers are subdividing 25 acres of his 47-acre farm into villa sites. Lum- ber has already been brought to the spot to begin the erection of a number of dwellings. ——_—_.— OUR GIANT KILLERS. Washington Adds Another to Its List of Victories. & THE CUBANS BADLY DEFEATED—THE GAME AT STAND PIPE PARK—HOW THE WASHINGTON ‘MEN PLAYED—NOTES ABOUT CLUBS AND PLAY- ERS—THE REORGANIZED FERSONS. There was a ball game yesterday for the first time in four days, and although there was a free show going on down town in the shape of the military review, yet about six hundred persons made the pilgrimage to Stand Pipe Park and saw the contest between the Senators and the Cuban Gianta, It was a repetition of the game played on Monday with the Williams College team, the score being 30to4 Foran inning or two it looked as though the game might last all night, and as it was Umpire Baker was kind enough to call game at the end of the eighth inning. Washington won, by the way, The Cuban Giants are by no means the team they used to be, Grant being about the only player of spy skill on it, He was the life of the game, and his loud voice and unique methods of coaching made eae gute hvely, even when the home team a lead of s dozen runs or so, The battery for the Washington nine at the start waa McCoy and Nicholas. The big twirler, who made his appearance in the box for the first time, jhowed up in a shape that won him 8 good reputation on the 't. He has a good command of the ball and is # hard, safe hitter as well. During the three innings that he itched he struck out five men. He was fol- jowed in the box by Phillips, who stayed two innings, and in the sixth, seventh and eighth Maloney and Riddle did the battery work. The visiting team was all mixed up, the score card | carrying a multitude of charge positions. In the second inning Stovey gave seven bases on balls, which, aided by » three-bagger by Mc- Coy, @ single by Bird and another by McCoy, two errors, a wild pitch and five stolen bases, yielded eleven runs for Washington. settling the game then and there. The rattle in the ‘ept up for another inning, the home ing three more, and again in the fifth five runs resulted from a three-base hit by Whistler, a single a Nicholas and a double by Bader, The iants managed to make | runs in the second, third, sixth and seventh innings by means of well bunched batting— two double hits in the second, « single and | a double in the third, a single and an error by Bird in the sixth and a triple and a single in the seventh. The home team played almost a faultless game, making but two errors, one of which was that by Bird, which was partly on account of the rough ground in the right field anda muffed high foul by Hill that did not hurt the result, O’Brien made a particularly fine play in the fifth, stopping a hot liner, touching @ runner as he passed and getting the ball down to first in time to make a double play. Grant made the play of the day, a high one-hand catch of a lly thrown ball at sec- ond, putting out the runner. In the fourth inning Miller hit a ball down in front of the plate, and in going for it Nicholas sat deliberately down on the round, thus giving the man a hit, in the seventh Nelson smashed the ball out into the center field, clear into the corner. It would have given him a home run had he not slipped when near the third, sprawling on the ground long enough to make it @ trifle danger- us to attempt to go ho: In the eighth Hill made a rattling three-bagger, which was fielded up a little faster than he expected it, and he and the third baseman went rolling in tne dirt, Hill was rather severely jarred, but he re- sumed his place the next inning. The home team made 11 hits and 2 errors and the visitors 9 hits and 10 errors, NOTES. There were sixteen Senators at the bat in the second inning. Bird made four runs, enough to tie the game alone, McCoy runs quite stiffly, his foot still hurt- ing him, It was remarked by some one yesterday that there has been more coaching done by the Washington team during the present exhibi- tion season than there was during all of last year. Grant talks all the time in a game. Here are some of his expressions in eoaching: ‘Don't ou dare to run back; keep away from tle ase." **Put the ball out of sight; hit it in the eye, old man, take all the stitches out of it.”” Inks, the Indianapolis pitcher whom Anson released, officiated in Philadelphia against the Hamultons and did exceedingly well. Paul Hines says he was offered more money to play witha players’ team than he is receiv- ing from the Pittaburg National League Club. Anson thinks the players will draw at the be- inning, but thatthe crowds will flock to the National League games. Uhio is the banner base ball state. It has two cities in the league, two in the American Asso- ciation, one in the Players’ League and six in the Tri-state League.—Exchunge. Ohio is getting quite a reputation between base ball and presidents. Yesterday's games elsewhere resulted as fol- lows: At Philadelphia—Philadelphia, 7; Hamil ton, 2.

Five of the artists of Washington are con- tributors to the spring exhibition of the Academy of Design, now open in New York, Mr. Heaton is represented by ome canvas, enti- tled “Hark! the Herald Augels Sing!” Mr. W. T, Matthews sends a “Porti of an Artist.” “The Yellow Bandana” and “Spring Time” are contributed by Mr. Moser. Miss Helen Nicolay sends a little bit calied “’Sconset Beach,” and Max Weyl is represented by three landscapes, entitled, respectively, On Analostan Island,” “A Showery Day on the Potomac,” and “No- vember on the Anacostia.” — What are the facts in regard to the poise of the Jackson equestrian statue in Lafayette Square in this city? A writer in one of the city papers, who professes to know what he is talking about,—aithough his article generally does not furnish much evidence in support of his claim—speaks of the marble slab or cap stone of the pedestal upon which the horse's feet rest, and says: “In this, with iron boxes, the projections on the feet of the horse are laced with liqnid metal securing them and [oiaing the two.” Another geutlenian says he was told by the man who did the work that the balance of the Foor is secured and sustained by strong metal bolts running from the bind feet deep into the marble upon which they rest, It has already been shown that this statue is not the only one, nor yet the first, as has beeu claimed, where the horse rests on his hind feet alone, with no other support, and it the statements above would appear that the Jackson is not entitled to be classed at all among statues of that char- acter, It becomes interesting, therefore, to know the exact facts in regard to the matter, Who can furnish them? — Mr. Hovenden’s painting entitled “In the Hands of the Enemy,” now on temporary ex- hibition in the Corcoran Gallery, 1s & work of art well worthy public attention, not only for its own merits, but as illustrating what Ameri- can artists are capable of accomplishing in that direction. The scene is laid in the *‘best” room of a Pennsylvania farm house, the time a few das fter the battle of Gettysburg, the being the experience of a confeder- ate officer left behind by Lee's retreat. Seated in achair, his wound being dressed by a union soldier, himself wounded, the stranded in- vader is the central figure of a weil disposed and admirably paiuted group. The incident is a simple one, and all the accessories are plain and homely—save the daughter of the house, who is an exquisite creation,—but the story is told with so much pathos and dignity, with such fidelity to nature, and with such delicate conceptions of the requirements and limita- tions of the subject as to raise the canvas from the level of mere genre representation to the higher plane of historical painting. As a work ofartitis far superior to the same artist's more pretentious picture showing John Brown oa his way to the gallows, in which the truth of history is sacrificed to’ dramatic effect.

It is to be regretted that so fine a work cannot re- main permanently in the national capitol. --It is pleasant to hear that so far Mr. Moser’s experimental exhibition of water col- ors at the Fischer art store has been successful beyond expectation, both in respect to at- teudance aud sales. It has drawn thither pretty much every body in town interested in art, and nearly tifty of the drawings will go upon the walls of some of the finest houses in the city when the exhibition closes. This outcome is highly encouruging to the artist, as well in the general interest aud appreciation shown as in the financial results. The drawings will re- main on view for some days longer. center of attraction at the fair of Lincoln Post, G.A.R., from its opening is the full length portrait of Lincoln, by W. ‘ft.
