NEW LINES OF SUBURBAN RAILROAD BEING CON- STRUCTED TO CONNECT THE CITY WITH THE COUNTRY—CITY CONVENIENCES IN THE COUN- TRY—OTHER MATTERS OF INTEREST. Suburban property has had its innings for this season as a feature of the real estate market, As bas been pointed out in Tux Sran business property seems now to be absorbing the attention of investors. It does not fol- low, however, that because country property has fatien back from the position of the lead- ing interest in the market itis altogether neglected. Every spring it comes to the front, and when the leaves grow sere and yellow and fall to the ground it steps aside for the winter and then reappears in the following spring. Property in the country, however, is always a part, and an important part, of the regl estate market, only it does not insist upon constantly Playing the leading part. There is a good deal of activity in the suburbs, as any one can see who rides about through the country. Whether the drive is across the Eastern branch, toward Hyattsville, out through the northeast and the northwest, or in whatever direction you may go, it is always Possible to see some improvement in Progress, Perhaps « subdivision is being made Of some farm lands and gengs of men are hard at work making roads and possibly trying to Feduce the irreul.rities of nature to the beauty of art as it appeared to L’Enfant, the French- man who devised the plan of the city. Then again houses may be going up and the observer Stops to admire the new forms And artistic de- vices which the architects nowadays introduce With such good effect into the designs of country residences. There is a good deal to be seen just now during a country drive in the way of railroad building. The magnitude of the operations of this kind is apt to impress the _ spectator the important relation which the subar! ear tothe city. The sub- urban railroads now being constructed involve the expenditure of large sums of money, and it is reasonable to suppose that this outlay is being made to meet a demand for quick and cheap vation between the city and dis- points in the suburbs. Those who left the city early in the season and have just returned will find om driving out the Tenley- town road that the electric railroad now runs all the way out to Tenleytown. The road bas been widened and the reilroad tracks are on ae side, 0 that the driveway is not obstructed. is evident, however, that the road is not yet Wide enough, and whea more attention is puid to the country roads no doubt additional space will beadded to this pop drive. The rail- road tracks do not stop at Tenleytown, how- ever; they go beyond, and the work of con- structing the road to the District line is going on. This latter point will be the northern ter- minus of the Georgetown and Tenleytown rail- road, Practicatly, however, it will extend to Rockville im one direction and to the Conduit Fead at Glen Echo in the other. Both of these extensions, which lie wholly in Maryland, are Deing built by separate corporations. BEYOND THE DISTRICT LIXE, The line of the road to Glen Echo has nearly been graded and the rails and ties are on the ground ready for use. A power house is being coustructed at the northern terminus of the road and is nearly completed. It is probabie that the new road will be completed for pas- senger traffic before the winter begins. It will be ouly three miles long and the line has becn chosen to suit the topography of the country end coustitutes what might be called a cross- country road, as it literally runs through the ficlds from the District line tothe Conduit Toad. The roadbed for another electric railroad is being graced along the Rockville pike. It will extend from the District line to Lethesda, and the probability is that it will, in the near fu- Lg be <a all the way to napeneme Glen company proposes also to build a iine connecting Rhett road with the Rock Creek railroad, which is now being built on the Line of Connecticut avenue extended from Woodley Park to the District line, and thence in a northeasterly direction two miles through Anumber of the beau- tifai drives through the picturesque region of Rock creek are intersected by the line of this Bew road, and the driving lic have be- come somewhat familiar with the progress that is being made in mastering the engi a ing problems which are presented in the at- in a straight line as J. Fisher & Co. and the vice president and acting presidept of the Rock Creek railroad, bas been in charge of this enterprise from the beginning, and he states that good progr bas been made in the great work of grading a roadway, Owing to the character of the coun- try, which, however picturesque to the eye, is not from an engineer's standpoint especially attractive, immense cuts and fills have been made, some of them as much as 50 feet in depth, and two long and expensive bridges must be built. The bridge across Rock creek at Woodley Park will be 130 feet high und 750 feet long. The other bridge will be over the Klingle road and will be 70 feet high and 400 _— feet long. These bridges will__cost $85,000 and $12,000 respectively. The grading that has been found to be necessary in the coustruction of this road is the most extensive ever undertaken in this District by private enterprise. There are three contractors engaged in doing the work, and | they have permanent camps at convenient Points along the line, where the gangs of laborers live. From the Boundary at the head of Connecticut avenue to the terminus of the road, which is in Montgomery county, Mary- land, on the farm formerly the property of Wm. Laird, the distance is seven and one- quarter miles. The curs will be run by elec- tricity and the total cost of the road will be about half a million doljars, At present there are no other suburban rail- roads in course of construction, but it is evi- dent that this is only the beginning of a sys- tem of railroads which will bind the city closer to the suburbs. THE CITY IN THE COUNTRY. There is enother fact in addition to the mar- velous activity in railroad construction which will show the growing importance of the suburbs. It isevident that money is being expended with a more liberal hand in prepar- ing a subdivision of land for the markct than has been usual in the past. It is not uncom- mon in driving beyond the city limits to come across a piece of paved roadway which is simi- lar to the city streets as far as the pavement is | concerned, ‘This experience is not so common | now as it is likely to be in tho future, but still such pavements are to be found in the sub- urbs, and the residents further enjoy the privi- leges which arise from a water system, a sower system and gas mains, hero are, of course, suburban subdivisions, and perhaps the majority, where the old farm lands show only the marks of the plow which has turned up afew furrows and then the loose earth has been scraped away to indicate the location of the streets, It is claimed that this method of | Subdivision is of advantage to the public, as the lots can be soll cheaper. However that may be the other method seems to be coming into vogue, and it must pay, or else men would not spend money to make these extensive im- provements, SOME NEW HOUSES, If the coming winter happens to be an open one, such as the past winter proved to be, it is probable that there willbe a good deal of building going on in the city. Plans havebeen —— for a number of large buildings both in the business and the residence portions of the city and it is likely that the details will be completed and actual work begun this fall, The lot where formerly stood the residence of Secretary Tracy is to be improved by the erec- tion of a handsome home. The owner of the property, Capt. A. C. Tyler, has had plans pre- pared for a house which will be an attractive addition to the locality, where there are a num- ber of handome examples of house architecture. The new house will be built of buff brick and stone and the treatment will be of the colontal order. handsome par! of the city. An older residence locality 1s K street between 13th and 14th streets, where the beauty of Franklin Square is ho red by the residents. Here Mr. Henry A. Willard ine tends to improve the vacant lot adjoining his bome by the erection of a fine residence. Further east, on the same removing bot! the site a large double residence, mert on the east side of New Hampshire ave- nue between Dupont Circle and Q street and extending through to 18th street. The New Ham; avenue front is to be of light In- diana lime stone the eftire height, there will be asquare bay extending to the third floor. A loggia extends partly across the front stone eaves ‘ks | J. Hatcher; rule on of jeep tiled roof. Clusters of stone columns flank the arched entrance. The 18th strect end will be finishedasafront in stone and pressed brick. An ornamental stone porch will form an entrance to this front. This house will adjoin the two handsome residences re- cently completed by Mr. Emmert and designed by Mr. Schneider. The house will be hand- somely finished on the first floor in mahogany and antique oak, and the second floor will be fiuished in cherry and ash, The entrance hall will be screened off from the oak staircase by a carved oak screen, and the floor will be inlaid with oak and mahogany. The house will be heated by the hot-water system of indirect radiation, Emmert & Heisley are the con- tractors. oo A VENERABLE PRIEST GONE. Death of Father Wm. F. Clarke, Assist- ant Pastor of St. Aloysius Church. Father Wm. F. Clarke, tant pastor of St. Aloysius Church, died last night at 10:30 o'clock of typho-malarial fever after an illness of sev- eral weeks, Father Clarke appeared to be im- proving rapidly up to yesterday morning, when he seemed much better than he had been for some time, In tho afternoon he suffered a re- lapse and sank rapidly until evening, when death came, Father Clarke was born in this cityin 1816 and was graduated in 1832 from Georgetown University, of which institution he was the oldest living alumnus. In 1842 he was ordained a priest, his first charge being at St. Joseph’s Church, Baltimore. He left there to become president of Loyola College, and after two x there he was placed at the head of Gon- zaga College in this city. A yeat later ho went back to Baltimore to be made assistant pastor of St. Ignatius Church and remained there un- til 1888, when he was installed as assistant pastor of St. Aloysius in this city.

A NUMBER OF BARGES Lost. At Newport the worst accident was to the tug Wm.E.Gladwich and her tow of six barges. She found it very difficult to care for her barges, the Tulip, Massachusetts, Falcon,Cuba, Daisy and Clover, Part of the time the tow carried the tug stern first. About 7 yesterday morning the barge Clover was struck by a sea, which sunk her in ten minutes, ‘The Cuba and Falcon started under sail and reached Newport in that way. Off Green Hills, some four miles west of Point Judith, the Daisy parted her hawser. The tug left her behind and came in with the Massachusetts aud Tulip, but they nearly sunk before reach- ing Newport. ON THE MASSACHUSETTS COAST.

Antonia Scaffida, who had been identified as one of the assassins of Chief Hennessy, was shot and mortally wounded in the parish prison by Thomas C. Duffy, a brother of the ex-prize | fighter of that mame. Duffy informed Deputy Sheriff 0. S. Andry that he called for the pur- Pose of sceing one of the ““dagos” arrested for the assassination of Chief Hennessy, as he be- lieved that he was able to identify him. Scaf- fida came down, accompanied by Deputy Sheriff Tim Dwyer, and put his face within a fow inches of the gate to recognize who it was that wanted to see him. Duffy, who was standing about a foot from the gate, with a lightning-like motion, drew a revolver from his hip pocket, and putting it within afew inches of Scattida’s face, pulied the trigger, and the Italian, with a groan, fell back into the corridor, the blood spurting from a wound in the left side of the neck. Duffy was disarmed, While iu the station Duily said that if the Italian died he was willing to hang. He said: “I only wish there were about seventy-five more men like me.” Scaftida protested his innucence. He said | that the Matrangas were at the bottom of Chief Hennessy’s murder. More than fifty arrests have been made of parties believed to be im- plicated in the assassination of Hennessy and yesterday another Italian, Pedro Nati identified by Officer Lanuagan as one of the meu he saw running away from the scene of the murder. A BOMBS “IN KANSAS, The U. S. Circuit Court Decides Origt- nal Package Saloons Lawful. A decision was rendered in the United States circuit court in Topeka, Kan., yesterday that has dropped like a bombshell and created consternation among the friends of prob bition in Kansas. The decision in question allows the reopening of original package liquor houses in the state, and in effect do- clares that the Wilson bill enacted by Con- gress does not restore the power of the Kansas prohibitory law as against original package saloond, ‘The facts in the ease are that Charles Raher, agent for a Kansas City liquor house, was arrested for selling liquor in Topeka after the passage of the Wilvon bill, Defendant ap- plied to the United States circuit court fora writ of habeas corpus, admitting that he had sold liquors as charged, but claimed that inas- much as the Kansas probibitory law was en- acted before the Wilson bill that the Wilson bill did not apply.
