To the Fditor ot The Evenine Star: You struck the key note in Saturday's Srar where you editorially said there is no reason why the handsomely surfaced highways of which this city is so proud should be smeared by dirt-laden contractors’ carte. The street sweeping and cleaning department has been blamed and abused for the uncleanliness of many of these thoroughfares when the neglect was and is chargeable to the police department. I know that Maj. Davis, superintendent of that department, has time and again officially | called the attention of the police department to this condition of affairs, and asked it to en- force the remedy placed in its hands by the Commissioners, and yet the nuisance. is not abated, but is alarmingly on the increase throughout the city. 0 matter how careful and painstaking the eup rintendent of street sweeping may be with the small appropriation at his command he cannot keep these places clean if the police department permits not only contractors’ carts to thus smear and stain them with their droppings,which are ground into our pavements, but when they allow many business streets to be littered up by old papers and other refuse swept into them from stores and shops. If members of the police department would devote more time to watehing these things and make more arrests for clear viola tions of police regulations our streets would at all times be in better condition. I don't be- | lieve there y necessity for police surveil- lance of the street sweeping department, but public mention of should be remedied by the police department. Justice.

ALEXANDRIA COUNTY, Pentecost serv- Dr. Bouquilion Good Prospects for New Railroads Through the County This Summer, Several surveys have been made and com- pleted through the county from points oppo- site Washington city toward Falls Church and Alexandria city preparatory to constructing electric railroads, and what seems more en- couraging to Alexandria county than anything that bus happened for some time is the fact that New York capitalists have expressed their | lingness to loan money for railroad building through the county. It is understood that ad- vantage will be taken of this offer and one or two electric road« built through the county this summer. A proposition for them to fur- nish money to construct a railroad bridge across the Potomac above the Aqueduct bridge is now being considered, ‘The public roads of the county are now being improved and leveled up, und the driving 1s very fine. At the beginning of the next fiscal year a system of mreadamized roads will be in- augurated throughout the county on all its | principal roads, Mr. James ‘E. Clements, as agent for Mr. Frank B. Queen, has sold to Mr. Chapin Brown of Washington city sixty-four acres of land and household near Linconia, in Fairfax county, Va., for £2,000. ae ‘The Great Falls Railway. To the Editor of The Evening Sta Your paper on several occasions has made the statement that the Warhington and Great Falls Railway Company would begin work within a few days and have trains running ina few wecks, Such statements are made to you without a knowledge of the facts or possibili- ties and are so unfair to the company and mis- leading to the public that it is deemed proper that an authoritative statement be given. Rail- ways are not built by magic, especially such as must be constructed between Washington and Great Falls along the Potomac and Conduit road, Congress in granting the charter for this road imposed many restrictions and re- uirements, which render the construction of the road necessarily of slow process, and the company desire the public to fally understand this in order that the fairy tales about rails being laid in a few days along the Canal road shall not cause disappointment and that it shall be clearly understood that such statements do not emanate from the company. Work has been commenced on this road in the engineer department, and is being hastened as rapidly as possible. All work has to be done under the supervision of the engineer depart- ment of the government, and the entire plans must be approved by the Secretary of War before any consiruction can be begun in the District, and when it is remembered that an iron elevated road from Aqueduct bridge to the Conduit road over the Canal road is one of the requirements, it will be readily under- stood why rails are not to be laid in a few days, That no time willbe lost by the company the public may be assured, but the rule of pro- cedure as laid down by Congress must be fol- lowed. ‘This road is stated by Senator Me- Millan, in his report to the committee of that House, to be the most important one asked of Congress, ‘The company reelizes that fact, and intends to so build as to carry all who’ may wish to rido in comfort and safety. The road is to built not for a day, but to become a great thoroughfare. The company does not own a single foot of land along its line of road, nor is it directly or indirectly interested in any lands, The road is to be built for railway pur- poses only and will be operated strictly on rail- way principles.
