_THE EVENING STAR: WASHING THE EVENING STAR BUILDINGG YEE SCEXE OF YESTERDAY'S FIRE—A FORMER CONFLAGBATION. GEORGETOWN NEWS. THE EMANCIPATION PARADE. ‘The third district colored people who will Tax Evexrxo Stan moved to its buildings at | participste in Monday's emaucipation celebra- the corner of 11th.street and Pennsylvania avenue in July, 1881. Prior to that time it had Deen published in an old building at the south- ‘West corner of Pennsylvania avenue and 11th Street, lately occupied by Thomas Dowlin; the auctioneer, but which disappeared when that square was cleared a few months ago to make room for « new city postofiice. When the Sram first moved across to to the north Bide of the avenue it occupied only the marble front building on the corner and the adjoming building on Eleventh street, which extended back into the square, forming an L with the main building. These two ings were at the time considered ample te accommodate the ir. business Office occupied the first floor of the main ing, and the press rooms and engine room the ground floor. Tae Stan was with a now perfecting press, one of ‘the fastest presses made. Up to that time it had been printed on @ four _eylinder Hoe press. which im its day was considered a mar- Yel of mechanism. Its last great performance Was to print 60,000 copies of Tue Sran on the dey that President Garfield was shot The growth of the paper, however, demanded not only more room but greater press facilities, so when Tux Stan company purchased and moved imto the buildings on the north side of Penn- sylvania avenue it furnished the new office wish a new and modern press. Steadily and rapidly the circalation of the paper increased until it outgrew even this modern press and a mate to it was purchased. The editorial rooms, then as now. occupied the second floor of the main building.and the composing room oceupied the fourth floor. It was while thus situated that THe Stan suffered its first serious visite tion by fire. IN ENLARGED QUARTERS, Tax Stan's continued growth before many Years made still further additions to the press facilities necessary, so a third rapid perfecting Press was added to its equipment, and, in 1889, a new buildmg was added to those already oc- cupied. This new building, adjoining on 11th street that already oceupied by Te Srar, has a frotaze Sf 55 feet and a depth of 100 feet. It was in this building that the fire did its Breatest damaze today. The composing room on the fourth floor was the scene of the great- est excitement. The second floor was occupied by the Linotype Company, and the third floor by Maurice Joyce, stereotyper and hoto-engraver. Most of the ground floor and Seausarters used by the Stax office for en- gine rooms, fuel rooms, store-rooms for Paper and for uses in connection with the distribu- tion of the paper. The apartments in front Were rented to tenants. When the new composing room was finished the upper foors of the main building were taken possession of by the artists, etchers, book-keepers, and stereotypers of Tae Stan. Recently Ine Sram extended its quarters by purchasing the adjoining buik 11g on Pennsyl- vania avenues a portion of witich building is now occupied by Tux Stan office. So Tue Star has now a frontage of 180 feet ou Lleventh eet snd sbout 45 feet on Pennsylvania enue, the resr building fronting on llth street extending back into the square towards ‘12th street a distance of 100 feet. — HEALTH OF THE DISTRICT. CONTINUED DECLINE IN THE DEATH RATE, VITAL STATISTICS. “The reports during the last week show a continued decline in the death rate.” Says Health Officer Hammett in his weekly report. “As compared with 100 in the week previous the deaths during the week ending on Satur- day last were but ninety-seven. ‘lhere was no death from typhoid fever nor from malarial complaints of any kind. The five deaths from searlet fever sre abnormal in namber, there having. been fourteen cases of this lady reported for the week for the whole District Other than from searlatina, but little sickness from con- + prevails throughout the city. nvles prevail as yet to some ex- ally decline as the spring weather ‘ue average weekly p: y from these causes during March was twenty-eight, while thus far in April the number is a fraction over sixteen per week. “The f z Statement will show the prin- cipal causes of death im detail by classes, by which it will be seen that diseases of the kid- neys still prevail to a considerable extent, while thoss among children remain at about the usual stage at this season of the year.” ‘The report shows: Number of deaths, 97; white, 54; colored, 42 Death rate per 1,000 per annum: white. 16.5; colored, 27.2 Total Population, 29.1.

The dog remained on the sidewalk, but his bark ascended to the crosstree on which the cat was perched. After severely trying his lungs and throat the tormentor went home but the tormented did notcome down. All through Monday night and Tuesday and up to Wednes. day afternoon the unfortunate cue remained on its narrow roost—observed by hundreds of people and w considerable danger from mis- tiles fired by mischievous boys.

NOTE. D. F. Merrit! has sold to Charles Wheatley for $6,000,85 feet on Jefferson street, ~~ KLEXANDRIAD THE HENRY STREKT IMEROGLIO SETTLED. The long standing trouble in reference to the railroad occupation of Henry street was settled by the city councils Tuesday night. The street was fairly granted just after the war by the city council to the Washington, George- town and Alexandria Railroad Company, but that company having been mischartered the grant failed, but the rails continued on the street and the track fell by occupancy into the hands of the Pennsylvania railroad syndicate and has been for many years rented by that corporation to the Midiand Railway Company at about #800 per annum, the Pennsylvania company using the Fayette street track for its trains. Under Mayor Beckham's administra- tion the city determined to free Henry street from the railway tracks and the mayor and @ posse undertook to tear up the railway, but were stopped by a temporary injunction. That junction has Leen pending for many years, but during Mayor Downham’s administration he made a movement to have the injunction dissolved so that the city might force the Pennssivania Railroad to terms. The city council directed a discontinuance of this effort and negotiations between the city and the rail- road authorities have since been pending. At last the matter is settled. The Washington Southern Railroad Company offered to pave six squares of Henry street, which is unpaved, on condition that its right of way thereon should be forever confirmed. This was done by the city council Jast night, and the Henry street embrogiio is over. ANOTHER RIGHT OF WAY GRANTED. The Washington, Alexandria and Mount Vernon railway companies has obtained from the city commissioners the right of way over all the streets lately granted to the Alex- andria and Fairfax Passenger Railway Com- pany with the additions on North Columbus, ranklin and South Royal streets. Mr. F. A. Reed, the superintendent of the company, made a statement in reference to the matter toeach of the boards of the city council and the grant was unanimously made, CITY COUNCIL MEETING. _ The city council at their last regular mect- ing adopted unanimously ordinances for paving Washington and St. Asaph streets from Oronoko to Pendleton street, and Lee street of a number of billsof Hammond Graves for oyster shells for street walke was ordered, and applications for grading of alley in rear of Lee school building near Princess Street and fora change im the electric light system toa schedule requiring no lights on moonlit nights were referred, and the police were crdered to light and extinguish the two or three gas lights now in use on Fayette alley, Pitt street uear Cameron, &e.

From the Boston Evening News, April 1. ‘The four-story brick dwelling at 1308 Wash- ington Sx. bussed Hibpes ovectarena as hive last night, when a lively fire broke out on ove of the lower floors. A ‘score of people were horribly frightened, and climbing to tho roof, —_ only ey — casting caren fow sano individuals among them that such a ore rigss descent would most likely prove to This fire demonstrated the existence of a grave danger which the “News” has always insisted on, namely, that the West End’s clumsy system of overhead electric trolley wires is obstacle to the work of the firemen. Last night it was almost impossible to raise the ladders to the windows because of these wires, Finally the ladders were put up élose to the walls, in- side the line of poles, and 80 nearly balanced were they that the services of half a dozen stal- wart firemen were required to keep them from tipping over backward, If the tipping bad occurred the men on the ladders would have been precipitated onto the “live” trolley wire, and obituary notices for each would have been in order. Luckily no such mishap occurred. The fire broke out at about 7.30 o'clock in @ room occupied by T. G. Rogers, an artist. Fed by tho paint and brushes it crackled furiously, and the inmates of the building fled in a panio to the roof, as their retreat to the ground floor was cut off. An immense crowd beheld these unfortu- nate men, women and children dancing about in a state of frantic terror, half inclined to hurl themselves into the depths below. The firemen rescued them all without injury. The building is owned by R. H. White and leased to Mrs. Annie W.

A meeting of the Shoe and Leather Dealers was held in New York Tuesday to take action in reference to securing a building at the Chi. cago exposition, The meeting was addressed by W. B. Rice and J. R Leeson of Loston. ‘These gentlemen visited Chicago recently and im conjanction with a local committee of the trade in Chicago obtained a promise from the directors general of the exposition to erect suitable building providing the trade sub- seribed $100,000 to the stock of the exposition. The New England Shoe and Leather Asso- ciation, they said, had already taken up the matter and proposed to raise with tho help of New York $.0,000 of the amount, leavii Chicago and the other parts of the Unite: States to raise the remaining 250,000, Mr. Ries thought that $25,000 additional would be required for the supervision of the building and the entertainment of foreign Visitors. He believed New England and York would also raise this amount. The sul scriptions received by the New England Asso- ciation already, he said, left no doubt in bis mind that the money would be quickly raised.
