Washington will be shocked to hear of the death this morning at 6:30 o'clock of Mrs. Mat- thew W. Galt. Mrs. Galt has had such a host of friends in this city and elsewhere that her death falls like a personal bereavement on an extended circle. For one year she has been in ill health and lately was taken to the Adiron- | dacks, where an improvement was hoped for. She received no material benefit from the trip, | however, and a week ago returned to her home on H street between 14th and 15th, where she expired this morning surrounded by her family. Dr. Janeway in New York and Drs, W. W. Johnson and Frye in this city have exerted every means known to medical skill to keep up the failing strength of the patient, but without success, and the end gradually but surely crept on. In Washington society and in every sphere of life's active work where good could be accom- lished seldom have there been women who ve been so much admired hnd looked up to as Mrs. Galt. Her charities and Christian labors have been unceasing, and nothing short of death could cause’ her active brain to cease from planning and carrying out |her good works. has been espe- cially active in the upbuilding of the Church of the Covenant andthe Children's Hospital, and here as in other fields her generous aid and active assistance will be greatly missed, Seldom has there been seen #0 clove a bond of affection and regard as existed between Mr. Matthew Galt and his departed wife. Boy and girl, friends in their childhood, they d thropgh youth. manhood and womanhood as de- voted husband and wife. Mrs. Galt leaves five children, all of them grown. Mr. Charles E. Galt, the eldest, resides in Philadelphia. In this city are Mr. Walter A.

A Police Board Reports the Results of In- vestigation by Officers. On Saturday last the major of police, in ac- cordance with instructions from the Commis- sioners, detailed thirty-four privates in citi- zens’ dress to accompany the garbage collectors and make reports to Liouts. Hollinberger, Teeple and Boyle, who had been selected to take cliarge of the matter. The roport of this board was handed to the Commissioners this morning by Maj. Moore, and was as follows: We have the honor to submit herewith the reports of the officers detailed to supervise ihe collection of garbage on the Gth instant, to- gether with such facts as will tend to farnish {nformation relative to the garbage service: Carts and wagons in service until 2 p.m., 83; after that hour an additional wagon was added to the service, making » total of 34 vehicles in use. An officer in citizen's dress ac- com . Total number of 5,904. This includes market buildings and ly. With the following except were made at all places visited: At 181 houses no was made to the collector's call; at two places the oocupants refused to permit the garbage tobe removed; in forty-four imstances delays of five minutes and over were WHY THE SERVICE 18 INADEQUATE. We conclude the following to be some of the reasons for the uate garbage service rendered the cities of Washington and George- Tis uate force in the collection, as evi- 6th inst., there being but 5,904 total of 40,000 houses in the fashington and Georgetown to served. At this rato a bi-weekly service would only allow about 18,000 premises to be visited, tb is less than one-half the number neces sary to be served. 2 Lack of feclities and insuficient force at time; uently there is much delay caused by the arrival at the wharf of a number of teams at the same time.

Posts in this country or as many of them as in- tend to come to this city during the eneamp- ment week Mr. John Joy Edson, the chairman of the executive citizens’ committee, has issued the following circular: August 1, 1892. ‘Wasmrxatox, D.C. To the Grand Army of the Republic: ‘For the those members of the ¥ purpose, of inform: dA mablic and those who arrangements per- ‘committee to date, with tions for their gu’ in pi for visit to this city in September next in attend- ance at the twenty-sixth national ay oy rd of the Grand Army of the Republic, the follow- is submitted: upon ip. No complaint bav- ing been made it is inferred that this has given general satisfaction. No additional informa- tion, therefore, upon this subject seems neces- sary from this committee. .—1. In order that suitable accommoda- tions can be surely and Properly mude, all posts of the G. A. R. contemplating attending the.en- campment should, ch commander or adjutant, notify Col. L. P. Wright, chairman of the committee on accommodations, Washing. ‘., not later than September 1, of the visit Wash- ton, D. total number of comrades that will 2. Halls and other suitab:e for accom- modat te can secured at reasonable figures, but application should be made aa early as ii le. To those requiring, free quarters it is especially requested that they be prompt in sending by September 1, 80h, of the number and name of the accommodation. Each cation should be signed by the mander or adjutant of the post. It is su; that all expecting free quarters should bring blankets to be used at night. No accommoda- tions or quarters of this character will be fur- nished to others than mombers of the G. A. R. 4. It is earnestly requested that all posts who have been assigned to quarters, with the num- ber of men specified, adviee this committee at once whether the number named will be less or greater. This isimportant in order that the committee may accommodate gthers or saveex- nse. It 18 also requested that those who in- tend to supply their cots or mattresses should so inform the committee. 5. It is suggested that where it is convenient for » post to do so it would be desirable for one of the comrades to reach Washington a days in advance to make ready the quarters as- signed or to be assigned and receive and con- duct the post to quarters when they arrive. Such comrades should report to Col. L. P. Vright, chairman committee on accommoda- tion, corner 7th street and Pennsylvania avenue northwest. 6. Posts should not hold the executive com- mittee responsible for unsatisfactory accom- modations, when the same has been secured by themselves or through other parties. 7. There are plenty of restaurants and eating houses where meals and refreshments can be had at reasonable rates. 8 Toaid the committee on accommodation in making proper and convenient assignments committee, by telegraph or otherwise. of the time when they expect to arrive in Washington and by what route, together with the actual number of men leaving home. “9. Those intending to bring tents and camp should send the number and size of the same. Tt is suggested also that they bring eacks or ticks that may be filled with straw, which will be furnished by the committee on accommoda- tion without cost. : III—1. The wives, sons and daughters of members of the G. A! R. who expect to visit Washington are earnestly recommended to se- cure their quarters before taking their depart- ure from home. 2. Owing to the large attendance that will be in Washington at the coming encampment and that the capacity to furnish meals and quarters will be taxed to the utmost, it is plain that people other than members of the G. A. hk. would be running » great risk of not securing accommodations and incurring serious discomfort if they do not act upon the suggestion above made by sectr- ing quarters throngh the committee on accom- modation or otherwise before leaving Warhing- ton. Those who are early will—more time being given—undoubtedly make the more satisfactory arrangements. 3. Good quarters can be secured for lodgings at from 75 cents to €1.50. and good board“and lodgings at from $1.50 to $2.50 per day in pri- vate houses. Hotel accommodations for many hundred can still be secured at prices ranging from $2.50 to #5 each per day. such as they can carry with them. Experience of visitors at former enca:mpments shows that a large portion of the baggage checked has been ry difficult to find. Considerable quantities of itare never found, and that which has been was frequently recovered too late to use during cir visit. 5. The temperature in Washington for the week in September selected for the encamp- ment has been, ax shown by the government weather bureau during the past ten years, an average of 65 degrees, the highest being 67 de- grees 8 minntesand the lowest 62 degrees 7 minutes. The nights are generally somewhat cooler. Summer clothing is all that will be necessary. 6. The committee are endeavoring to make arrangements for people to visit battlefields and camping grounds. pleted with the railroads, the effort that 1s beiny made is to accommodate all who wis! to make such visits, Committees will be stationed at different points, like Richmond, Frederjcksburg, Winchester, Gettysburg, é&c. to furnish information and direction to th people to reach, in the shortest way, the different battlefields and camping grounds. Later more complete information will be furnished. All reunions will be dgupon ‘what is known as the “White Lot,” i intely south of tho Executive Mansion. ‘The area. is ample to erect all tents, large and small, that will be required for reunion purposes during the week of the encampment. Concen- trating all the reunions to be held in this way at one point, it is believed, will secure veterans. All communications in making arrangements for the holding unions should be addressed to Col. John Mc- Elroy, chairman on the committee of reunions. 8. It is cortain that there will be many more visitors of the Grand Army to Washington than have ever attended former encampments. This of course necessitates arrangements being made ona much larger and more expensive scale, all of which the citizens of W: mn have at- tempted to appreciate and prepare for. In view of the misapprehension which has somewhat prevailed on that subject it seems proper to state that the whole expense of the Teception and entertainment of the Grand Army of the Republic will be borne by the citizens of Washington and the District of Co- lumbia, the funds therefor being provided by the voluntary subscriptions of the sum of €50,000, and by tax on private property within the District of Columbia sufficient to raise from that source the additional sum of §90, to ‘THE NEW ASSISTANT ASSESSOR. ‘Mr Thomas J. Luttrell Appotated to Suc- coed Mr. F. L. Moore. Shortly after 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon Capt. Roseell called Commissioner Ross’ atten- tion to the vacancy in the board of assessors made by the resignation of Mr. F. L. Moore, and suggested that the place be filled before Commissioner Douglass left the city for his va- cation. He stated that Commissioner Douglass was in favor of Mr. Thomas J. Luttrell and as be no objection to his appointment was ready to vote accordingly. Commissioner Ross telephoned Mr. Luttrell to ses if he would accept the position and re- ceiving a favorable reply the matter was quickly set Mr. Thomas J.

In Julv, 1865, he came to Washington and obtained ‘employment in the dry goods firm of Johnson & Sutton, corner of 20th street and Pennsylvania avenue. In 1867 he became a member of the firm and remained such until 1869, when he and Mr. L. D. Wine bought the business and conducted it y until 1888, when Mr. Wine with- drew.

The national president, however, is inclined to think that such courtesies ought to be extended by the Department of the Potomac. No objection is made by the citizens’ committe or the sub- committee to any plan which any local organi- zation may see fit to adopt in entertaining the veterans who come here. more that is done in this line the better thecitizens’ com- mittee will be. But the proposition has been made that the money which the citizens’ sub- committee would disburse for the entertain- ment of the national dey ment be turned over to the Department of the Potomac. A BUSINESS PRINCIPLE. It was in regard to this point that Gen. Pal- mer was asked to intercede. The effort, how- ever, has proved to bea failure. The advo- hange were confronted by the business principle, which they was assured would be strictly enforced; that every dollar contributed by the citizens would be expended 09 | by the citizens’ committee and that not a single cent would be given to any organization. If r rule was adopted the Department of Potomac. G. A.R., and other veteran organ- tions would be entitled to aid from the fund @in carrying ont their for the entertainment of the Visiting veterans. But these organizations are going to use the money which belongs to them, and this is exactly what the Department of the Potomac, W. R. C., will be obliged to do if they undertake the exclusive entertainment of the national department. In the event that the nal department refuses the courtesies of the Citizens’ subcommittee the citizens’ fund will be it. However, it is not expected that the national department’ will take this position and no doubt the program Will be carried out as planned. ver, the intricacies of this involved unpleasantness has | been more or less a source of annoyance to the members of the citizens’ committee. taroneorlsearay MORE SUBSCRIPTIONS.
