Fiebeger Makes a Report Upon the Condition of Canal Street. Steps Taken to Remove the Obstruc- tions—Suggestio About the Pro- posed Fencing of the Ca At the iast session of Congress a joint resolution was passed calling upon the Com- missioners to report upon Canal street— that is, whether that part of Canal street between L and P is open to travel on both sides of the canal; and if not so open, how and by whom fs it obstructed and what steps have been taken by the Commission- ers for the removal of said obstructions. The resolution was referred to Capt. Fie- beger for report, and after several weeks of careful investigation he submitted his re- port thereon today. | This report is a large and comprehensive document, covering the history of the canal, thereon and all information bearing upon the subject. Maps and plats of the section are also submitted. He states the obstructions to Canal street between L and P to be: By the District property yard at the in- tersection of Canal and L streets. | By a dwelling and fence upon United States reservation 305. By some sheds at the intersection of 2d and N streets. By the remains of stone crusher at inter- section of Canal and O streets and by sheds of W. H. Mohler, lime kilns of Washington Brick and Terra Cotta Company at the in- tersection east of square E 547. By a fence projecting from square 598. By the approaches to the bridges at K M and N streets, which approaches are about 9 to 12 feet above the level of Canal street. 3y heaps of sand and other building ma- terial distributed along the street, unloaded from barges. The Commissioners have ordered all these obstructions removed, except on the United States reservation 305, the District property yard at the intersection of L and Canal Streets, the approaches to the bridges and the piles of building material. A full account of the Commissioners’ ac- | tion on the subject of obstructions along James creek canal is inclosed. As to the obstructions in United States reservation Captath Fiebeger says he |is informed by Col. Wilson that the Dis- | trict attorney has had the papers in his | possession for several yeafs for prosecution. Concerning question 3 of the resolution as to whether the canal is used for trans- | portation and to what extent he says: “The canal is used principally for bring- ing building material, such as sand, broken stone, &c., in scows for use in the city. No record is kept of the number of scows, ro that no definite idea can be given of the amount of traffi Fencing the Can: Concluding the report he says “I would say that the District Commis- sioners have hitherto, and the grand jury has, recently, called attention to the neces- | sity of fencing in the James Creek canal | throughout its entire length on account of the accidents which have occurred from its unprotected condition. If the Commission- ers are limited to the construction of a | fence 11 1-2 feet from the banks of the | canal it will, as I have stated before, entirely ruin the commerce of the canal,as no goods |ean be brought up and unloaded in that space. If, however, they are allowed to construct this fence, say about fifty feet from the canal bank, leaving 41 1-2 feet be- tween the property lines and the banks for a roadway and sidewalk, this space could be used for storage of sand and other build- ing materials, and authority should be giv- en to lease it so as to cover the cost of the construction and maintenance of the fence and the necessary dredging of the canal.” = ow ges SMALL FIRE. But It Singed Louis Lyo Mustache. This morning about 8 o'clock moma passing 4 1-2 and D streets were attracted to the little oyster saloon adjoining Nel- son's bar room by seeing smoke and flames issuing from the front door. A gasoline stove had exploded and it was known that the colored man in charge of the place was inside just before the fire started. He had not left the place and spectators thought for a few moments that he had been en- veloped in the flames and had not been able to escape. A crashing of glass was heard and pres- ently the colored man emerged from the place. “I did the best I could,” he said as he almost gasped for breath, “I couldn't help a His hair and mustache showed that he had been a little too near the ffimes. “I attempted to start the fire,” he said, ‘and the blaze got away from me.” At the same time he stood brushing his hat and coat. Some amusement was caused when one of the doors came open and a large rat appeared, but he retraced his footsteps rather than face the crowd and it is more than probable that he reached a place of safety. The plastering and some of the wood- tle place were ruined and a the proprietor, was at the wharf at the time of the fire and Louis ns, the colored man, although badly zhtened was not badly hurt. No. 6 engine company was called out on | a local, but citizens had about extinguished the flames when the firemen responded to the call. The damage = to less than $25. > — ORGAN RECEIVED. NEW Israel Church Inaugurates a Fine I strument With Pleasant Ceremonies. A largely attended and otherwise suc- cessful organ recital was given last night at Israel C. M. E. Church. It was prin pally to introduce the new pipe organ, for which the congregation has been working for some time past. It is one of the finest in the city and cost the church but $1,700. It is twenty feet high and of great power and full tone. Rev. Dr. S. B. Wallace, the pastor, delivered the invocation. Introduc- tory remarks were made by Mr. L. A. Cor- nish. He reviewed the history of church music, referred to the great masters of sacred tune, and spoke of the appropriate- ress of the organ as an instrument for the interpretation of this kind of ; Music. “The Heavens are Telling” was | performed by Prof. Bischoff in his inimi- table style, and Miss M. L. Jordan read “The Legend of the Organ Builder.” Dur- ing the evening the professor gave the | adequate gavotte from “Mignon,” the overture to “William Tell,” Batiste’s offertoire B, and “The Mocking Bird.” Mrs. E. Stevénson was pleasantly heard in the song, “Only Lock of Mother's Hair,” and Miss C. A. Patterson, the leading soprano of Metro- | politan A. M. E. Church, did credit to her- j self. Mr. H. Lewis, leader of the Am- m Gh Club, sang well, as did Mrs. e. the chief contralto of Metropolitan A. Church. Miss B. Colder recited, fas aia Miss Hulda Hooper.

Adelina Patti will sing at Albaugh’s Grand Opera House Mon- day evening, December 4. The company supporting Mme. Patti is made up of Mlle. Guerrina Fabbri, contralto; Mile. Louise Engel, mezzo-soprano; Mr. Durward Lely, tenor; Signor Antonio Galassi, baritone; Signor Franco Novarra, basso; Signor Mas- cheroni, stage director, and Signor Arditi, conductor and accompanist, and a grand orchestra, led by Sig. Arditi, Her success in New York at her opening last Saturday afternoon was enormous. Her voice is ad- mitted to be as beautiful as of yore, and her art is still the same, which makes her the singer of all singers of the world. Since the New York concert she has sung in Boston, and her triumphs were just the same there. On December 1 she sings in Philadelphia, and the seats there are pretty well all sold. In this city she will present a miscellaneous program, and will also give the third act of “Faust,” with scenery, costumes, &c. The sale of seats will commence at the Opera House on Wednesday, November 29. Imperial Austrian Band.—A change has been made in the engagement of tne impe- riat Austian infantry Band that will be grateful to those who are lovers of military music. The first concert will be on Sunday, instead of Saturday night, and then the | stay of the band will be prolonged until Wednesday night. Prot. Sousa and his band filled Alpaugh’s Opera House on a Sunday night, and it is believed that the Imperial Austrian Band can fill Convention Hall next Sunday night. Popular prices of admission have been fixed, so as to bring these concerts within the reach of all. Those who desire to secure their seats can do so at the Bradbury piano ware rooms. The success of this band in Philadelphia is responsible for the change in its visit here. It is believed that it will create fully as great a furore in Washington as it has in every city that it has visited since it left “Old Vienna” at the world's fair. Organ Recital.—There will be an organ recital at the Metropolitan M. E. Church on Thanksgiving evening by Prof. Wm. C. Carl of New York, who has a high reputa- tion as a performer, and who gained addi- tional renown by his playing at the world’s fair. He will be assisted by several tal- ented soloists. Columbia Lodge.—The annual entertain- ment of Columbia Lodge, ) Lo. for the benefit of the widow fund, which takes place tonight at National | Rifles’ Armory, should not be forgotten. A good program, embracing some of the best local talent, has been prepared, and after it is finished there will be dancing. The Black Patti.—Mme. Sisieretta Jones, better known as the Black Patti, will give a concert on Thanksgiving evening at the Metropolitan A. M. E. Church, on M street. This lady has sung here several times, and always with success. Her voice is remarkable for its compass and flex- ibility, and she uses it with great skill and good taste. She will be assisted by some of the best talent from New York, Philadel- phia and this city. > . PRESS CLUB WRATHFUL. Two of Its Cooks Locked Up by Too Zealous Police. The Press Club ts wrathful, and deep and | loud are the anathemas pronounced against | the over-zealous efforts of the police of the fourth precinct. One of the Press Club cooks was arrested the other night for Jack the Slasher and locked up until the next day, much to the discomtiture not only of the cook, but to the early break- | fasters at the club, who came around as | usual for their morning chocolate and roll. A few nights ago after the boys had sent “good night” and dropped into the club for their midnight supper and the | second cook had attended to their wants, he left the club about 1 o'clock started home. He is an honest, faithful colored man and was proceeding on his way quietly, when he was rounded up by the police and calad to account for being on the street at that time of night. He told them he was cook at the Press Club, but they laughed ong and loud and said that he could not stuff them that way; oh, no, they were too old birds to he caught with such chaff as that. Then tney ran him in and he remained locked up until the next morning, notwithstanding the fact that a word over the telephone to the stew- ard would have settled the matter. Great interest is being taken by the cor- respondents in the case of “Jack the Slasher” and nearly every one sends out something about it every night, espeviatly since the shooting of the innocent colored man, a.m. and ee Stenographers as Debaters. The newly organized debating club of the Stenographers’ Association held a well-at- tended meeting last evening at the rooms of the association, 612 14th street northwest. The question for debate was: Resolved, That the concentration of wealth in the hands of a few is a menace to the existence of a free government. The participants in the debate were Messrs. Derby, Fracker, Moulton, Holmes, Nye, Rickles and Ander- son. Meetings of the club will be held bi- weekly. The question chosen for debate at the next meeting is: Resolved, That Presi- dent Cleveland would be justified in restor- ing Queen Lil. to her throne. eee For Embezzlement. Today Aloysius W. Neff, a young man, was placed on trial in the Criminal Court (Division 1), Justice McComas, for em- bezzlement of $6.85 of the funds of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company of New York. ———_—_.
