STREET IMPROVEMENTS. Annual Report of Capt. Rossel! se Assistant to the Engincer Commissioner. HOW THE MONEY APPROPRIATED BY CONGRESS WAS SPENT DURING THE LAST FISCAL YEAR— ‘VARIOUS CLASSES OF WORK DONE AND WHERE— THE WORKINO OF THE PERMIT SYSTEM. Capt. Rossell today completed his annual re- port as assistant to the Engineer Commissioner, covering the workings of his oftice for the past fiscal year: STREET IMPROVEMENTS. Under this head is included all work done on streets and avenues of the cities of Washing- ton and Georgetown under the appropriation bill. It does not include any repair work nor work doue under the permit system. ‘Ihe appropriations expended during this fiscal year were distributed as follows: Schedule. Amount. Per Cent.

The pavements laid during the past year were granite block, asphalt on bituminous and on hydraulic base and asphalt block. The specifications for these various kind of pavements will be found in the appendices to this report. A comparison of these specifica- tions will show that the standard asphalt pave- ut on hydraufic base has been left out, This was the pavement adopted some years ago and experience has demonstrated that the pavement now called for by the specifications is 2 better one. The law this year permitted the use of the hyuraulic base for sheet asphalt pavement at cost not to exceed $2.25 per square yard. Ido not think that in the future any asphalt pave- ment should be laid without this except under the most favorable conditions. Whenever streets paved with cobble were to be paved with sheet asphalt the cobble was left as ® foundation if it was in good condition. This resulted in a saving of from 10 to 60 cents Per square yard. On I street northwest between 20th and 234 streets, paved this year with asphalt, was a most excellent bedof macadam. This macadam was left for a base and, apparently, with good resulta, GRADING AND REGULATING. No change has been made in this work during the fiscal year. In the new work now being done the Telford macadam pavement has been substituted for the macadam formerly used. A table 1s appended showing a list of streets and avenues im the cities of Washington and Georgetown for the improvement of which moncy was appropriated. Contracts hzve been made for all these streets except 18th street northwest from New Hamp- shire avenue to 8; 4th northeast, Cto D, and 6th northeast, C to D. These streets were pro- vided for in the appropriation for 1990-91 and contracts made during that year, and it having been found that there was sufticient money in that appropriation to allow this expenditure they were improved and paid for out of the ap- propriation for 1891. ‘THE PERMIT SYSTE. During the year $31,984.01 was expend sd for regular permit work and $109,214.75 for com- pulsory permit work. Referring to the appro- priation for the permit system Capt Rosell sage: Tregard this as one of the most important funds given to the Commissioners for expendi- ture. Not only does it affect the public health in the case of alleys, but it permits a better class of sidewalks and new sidewalks to be laid where without such a fund the Commissioners would be powerless to require new sidewalks to be put down. During the present fiscal year the appropria- tion for permit work to be used on roadways and for curbing of the same was £50,000. the appropriation is coupled with a prot ion requiring the amount to Le done in any case to be not less than one squareand to the full width of the roadway, it will be seen that this is only applicable to the places where the property is in the hands of large owners. Should the appropriation be made in such a way as to permit the Commis- sioners to expend the money by doing all work where necessary and taxing the abutting prop- Mr. Corey tells the fol! : 1SV0 T had two attacks 0° the «rippe aud was confined tothe house fortwo months and left my left nostril closed and my left ear almost entirely deaf, also the Jachrymal duct leading <rom: the eye to the nose.

Of course the objection would arise to this method that where streets. are spe- cially provided for the property owner is put only to the expense of the curbing and side- exc § and where it is done under this system he is required to pay one-half of the entire cost of roadway and sidewalk. In. every case, then, where the parties are required to pay” one-balf they feel aggrieved and that they have Just cause for complaint. To avoid this’ as far as possible, it might be well to provide that such work should only be done on a written application, signed by ihe owners of a majority of the prop” erty affected. This would enable the property owners to get such work done at an curly date when they were willing to pay haif the expense. sDEWALxs. Under the head of sidewalks he says: The sidewalks of the city of Washington con- trast so badiy with the roadways as to cause constant remark from strangers and constant complaint from residents. Anything that can be devised to better this, it seems to me, would be a great advantage tothe District, and I would suggest that the Commissioners pass regulations forbidding an. certain streets the laying of any kind of sidewalks except the most approved, which, I believe, to be ‘or some similar wement. This should be required on the ‘asiness streets of the first class of the city and on the finest residence streets. On business Streets or residence streets where property is not of such high value a grade of vement @ little below this might be Ein such es the asphell tile stews, ‘This forms an excellent pavement, but is less pensive than granolithic. On the minor streets and streets where the property is not improved and is of no great value the brick walks might be used. By following some such scheme as this I believe it would result in & great improvement of the sidewalks thro out the city and District, and would ive ‘the city what it so much needs—a good c! of sidewalks to compare favorably with the road- ways. CURB. The use of the blue stone curb has been en- tirely discontinued in this city, except where the old curb bas been taken from streets to be permanently improved and used on streets onl; pertially improved, such as grade and regulated streets and streets were side- walks are laid unde: the permit system. Some curb has been given to outlying subdivisions, where people are desirous of improving the property, and the District has taken this Ercthod of assisting them in the same.

Every day this is put off tho cost is greatly increased, and eariy action should be taken. The beautiful plan of the city has been departed from in the wubdi- visions just outside of the city prover, aud this land, now become valuable, is laid off, in the most unfortunate manner. It is nowso built up in places as to render it impracticable to make any but minor changes. The city of Washington in its plan is ® monument to those under whose wise man- — it was laid out, and now this work ould be done for the future throughout the rest of the District. I rd this as the most important consider- poe in Connection with the surface depart- men’ The following is the statement of the work done, trees planted, &c., during the fiscal year: Trees in stroets July 1, 1890 ‘Trees planted during the year. ‘Trees removed, lost by storm, &0.

One of the chief attractions of the citylare the beautiful trees now lining most of the streets, and as the streets extend farther and farther into the District. the expenses of the parking commission fare. largely increased, and. although I have been com by reason of the financial condition of the District to ask for no more money than I do, yet more is needed, and I would suggest tha’ the planting of trees out- site of the city be done under the permit » tom, as in the caso of laying sidewalks, requir- ing the ownets, however. to pay all the cost of planting, the District merely furnishing the trees and doing the work. ‘BRIDGES. There have been no extra expenditures on bridges this year due to any floods or serious damage of any kind. The bridges across the Chesapeako and Ohio canal in Georgetown need attention. ‘They are of great importance to the citizens, of Georgetown and shoula be hapt up. desire particularly to speak of the Anacos- tia bridge, which is an old structure and a most unsatisfactory one, very deficient in width for the large travel now Using it. The draw, as now constructed and operated, isa great nui- sance to the people. ‘The bridge itself is defi- cient in strength, and some of the piers have apparently settled ont of place. The bridge is twenty feet in width, with two sidewalks of fiye feet oack. It is 1,256 feet long between end piets. The floor is nine feet above low water, or five feet above high water. It hasa draw span of fifty feet on the Bascule rinciple, operated by man . My spoon iam peg bridge a cost of $85,000 for raising the same and ¢ tending the embankment; so as to, reduce the number of spans to six, doubling the width by putting the spans not needed beside thoss that would be left in porition. I believe myself that it would be better to build an entirely riew bridge, and that an ap- propriation of $250,000 should be made for the same, the spans of the old bridze to be used wherever proper for small bridges needed thronghout the Distriet. The old wooden Benning bridge over the Eastera branch is being replaced by an iron- fitder bridge, an appropriation of $60,000 Pi aving been made by the last Congress for this urpose. © ‘The iron bridge over Rock creek at K strect northwest noes raised. fA 2 ‘The Chain bridge is in apparently good con- dition, and the same may be said of the Aque- duct or Free bridge. ‘The Baltimore and Potomac railroad have built a new track under the western span of the Pennsylvania avenue bridge over the Eastern branch during the past fiscal year. ‘The em. bankment caused a movement in the western ier of the bridge. The railroad company Eave given a bond to make good any damage, but as yet this has been slight. = * NEW BRIDGES NEEDED. A bridge should be built over Rook creek along the line of Massachusetts avenue ex- tended. ‘The bridge across the Potomac river to con. nect the city with Arlington, although tional matter, Lhope the Commissioners will recommend it. ‘STEAM WAILROADS. This question has not yet reached a satisfac- tory solution. As our country grows in popu- lation the time rust come when grade cross- ings of ordinary and steam roads will no longer be periiitted anywhere. This time, it secms to me, hus come in this city and will shortly through the District. It may be urged that the whole expense of the tly hangex necessa: to accom} this should not be borne by the acest s would suggest tat the Commissioners ask Con- gress to require the change to be made and ap- point a committee tolay outa plan for same ‘with the proportion of cost to be borne by the railroads and the government. STREET RAILWAYS. ‘This city has suffered great inconvenience throughout the year by reason of the large amount of work done by the different com- panies in changing to the grooved rail and in The case of the Washington aod Georgetown railroad putting down a cable system. ‘The end scems to be now in sight and the re- sult will be very beneficial. HERDIC LINES. I would respectfully repeat my viows of last year on this subject. I would also ask that the Commissioners urge on Congress the passage of @ bill regulating the width of tires, not only for these large and heavy vehicles, but for ail others hauling heavy loads. From the best authorities on this subject I think these tires should be four and ahalf inches wide.
