ADVOCATES OF THE PROFOSITION TO CBOSS AT OBSERVATORY HILL AND THOSE OPPOSED To IT ‘MAKE THEIR ARGUMENTS—AN AMENDMENT PROPOSED, BUT NOT ACTED OX, The Honse committee on commerce gave a the Washington, Alexandria and Mt, Vernon Railway Company to bridge the Potomac river near the old naval observatory. Mr. Alex. D. Anderson, Capt, Reed and Mr. James R. Caton of Alesandris, Mr. Frank Hume and a delegation of residents of the Virginia shore of the Potomac appeared in favor of the bill. Mr. Geo. T. Dunlop, Mr. G. G. Boteler, Dr. Ritchie, Mr. Marbury and Neil Dumont op- pored the billon bebalf of Georgetown mer- chants, whose objections to the bridge are based upon the allegation that it will obstruct neviga- n. IN BEMALY OF THE OBSERTATORY SITE. Mr. Alex. D. Anderson, the general counsel of the railway company, was first recognized and said, in the course of bis remarks, that the bill under consideration conforms to the recom mendations of the War Department as regards the site of the bridge from Observatory Hill to Arlington, and substantially to the plan of strac- turesubmitted tothe Benateia 1896 by Onl Halen) The company offers to pay for the bridge throw the carriageway and footway open to the public free of charge. They also expect to complete both bridge and railway before Con- gress meets again in December, provided the | Bill becomes alaw before the 4th of March. | The War Department, in its report, thinks the | bridge should be built by the gcverament, So | does the company, but the people of Washing- ton and Virginia are tired of waiting for the company ‘prefers to pay for it. In no portion of the two reports does the War Department even intimate that the pro- posed bridge will interfere with the navigation of the river to Georgetown. On the contrary, they have recommended a drawbridge at the | place named. The bridge proposed and the railway from the hotel, street railway and department centers of Washington by way of Arlington and Alex- andria to Mt. Vernon iss matter of import- ance not only to this city, but to Virginia, the whole United States and even the world, for Arlington and Mt. Vernon are the objective points of thousands and thousands of citizens and foreigners who ‘visit the national capital each year. In brief the bill is directly in the interests of | public economy and the public welfare and it a most valuable precedent for legislation in the interests of tho taxpayer. “Viewed from that standpoint,” said Mr. Anderson, may make an immediate, unanimous and favor- able report, in order that the bill may pase this session and the bridge be open to the public this year.” MM, NEIL DUMONT OPPOSES THE BILT. Mr. Neil Dumont was heard in opposition to the bill. He strenuously objected to the bridge, which, he urged, would be # serious menace to commerce. It would virtually cut off the part of Georgetown. He suggested that the road should be compelled to pass to the rear of Arlington and cross the river in the Vicinity of the Aqueduct bridge. “That would bring the road into and through Georgetown?” asked Chairman Wise. “It would. * “And that is what yon want, eh?” ‘This question caused « laugh in the com- mittee. * Mr. Dumont acknowledged that such was the fact and insisted that the proposed route of the road does not furnish the proper means of com- manication with Arlington, for the cers would land passengers at the foot of the hil In answer to a question Mr. Dumont said that the commerce of Georgetown is growing. ‘There were 250,000 tons of coal shipped from Georgetown last year.and that amount will probably be exceeded during the coming year. A large amonnt of fertilizer, ice and stone ix brought into Georgetown. SOME OBJECTIONABLE FEATURES, ‘Mr. Dumont said that the bill has some ob- fectionable features. It allows the sale of the franchise and to sell bonds, Representative Caruth asked why the bill asks Congress for power to eli bonds. Does not the charter of Virginia, under which the rond is incorporated, give the corporation sufficient on replied that the company is willing t portion of the bill stricken out. P made a short speech in favor of the bill. He said that all of the commerce of any importance coming to Georgetown takes a tow from a” tugboat to reach Georgetown. The vessels would ha: tow whether a bridge is there or not. There is nota bit of danger to roperty in Georgetown by the erection of the ridge. One of the ‘men interested in the road and bridge is a large property owner, and he does not fear damage to his wharfage by the bridge. | AN AMENDMENT PROPOSED. An amendment to the bill was proposed by Mr. Boteler for the Georgetown people. The amendment changes the route to run to the westward of Arlington and enter Georgetown either ona bridge to be built on the piers of the Aqueduct bridge or on bridge to be con- structed west of the aqueduct. If the aque- duct piers are used the road must be fifteen feet below the carriageway. The road #hall not use Water street or the C. and Q. canal in Georgetown, but must find eutrance to Wash- ingtor. over other streets. ‘The committee reserved the proposed amend- ment for future consideration, and the hearing was adjourned, | 4 MeMonrar. The following memorial, signed by many well- known men, bas been sent to Congress: “The proposition of the Washington, Alex- andria and’ Mount Vernon Electric Bailway Company to construct, at its own expense, an iron bridge across the Potomac, from Ob- servatory Hill to. Arlington, on the site recommended by the War ment and substantially on the recom- mended by Col P. C. Hains in bis report to the Senate June 21, 1886, and to throw the carriageway and footway open to the public free of charge, is in our opinion directly in the interest of public economy and the public welfare. We trust a proposition so remarkably liberal in ite terme will mest with prompt, recognition, by Congress, particularly as it is the expressed in- tention of seid company if the bill passes be- fore the 4th of March to complete both the bridge and electric railway before Congress meets again next December.” ‘The signers are Chas.
