According to the plans improvements will commence down in the New Jersey avenue yard, and there, as a part of New Jersey avenue, will be the first bridze. The approaches to this bridge will extend from the line of G street, in reservation 17, on the north and from K street southeast on the south. The grade to the bridge will be 5 per cent. ‘The next bridge isat South Capitol street. Both approaches are on 4 per cent grades. ‘The southern approach commences at the north line of H street southeast; the northern end has its beginning at E street sourhwest. In this case the bridge crosses over the street, for the conformation of the ground is such that depres- sion of the tracks is probably impossible. PLANS FOR SOUTHEAST WASHINGTON.

TO FORMULATE A REPORT. The next step to be taken will be the for- mulating of a feport to the full Senate District committee. This will be done by Senator McMillan, who has been the diplomat and mediator’ from the beginning of his term as chairman of the committee. As the | plans are satisfactory to him—for he 80 ex- | ressed himself toa Stan reporter—it is likely | Eovwill “submit the entire proposition. to the committee at its next meeting.

Moore today submitted to the Commis- sioners a number of suggestions of rmendments | which he deems advisable to the police regula- | tions. Most of the proposed amendments are of minor importance. One of them, however, provides that all drivers of public vehicles be ! licensed and that application for such license be accompanied by the recommendation of tworep- utable citizens, the object being to exclude im- proper characters from this line of employment. Another amendment includes within the law | | newspaper form merely to evade the law. | He recommends that article 10, section 1, re- lating to fast driving, be mede to apply as well to those who ride as well as those who drive be- yond the speed therein established. | Additional regulations are suggested to pre- vent loafing on or about the bridges and ne proaches thereto, and also to prohibit the ob- struction of access to or the use of fire alarm boxea. Continuing, he says: Py NECESSITY FOR A UNIFORM CODE OF LAWS. ‘The necessity for a uniform code of laws for the entire District of Columbia has been ap-/ parent for a long time.
