Washington dailies. As a News a ty lm order to avoid delays, on ac- count of pe: al absence. letters to THE STAR sheul dressed to A subcommittee of the House committee en the District of Columbia yesterday took up and considered, in part, a ques- tion of intense interest to Washington- lans—the old yet ever new problem of grade crossings. This preliminary skir- ‘amish in a fight which will continue so long as one of these dangerous obstructions to »traffic exists in the city proper was prin- -elpally between the Northeast Citizens’ Association and the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company. There were no novel evelopments in the arguments advanced on the one side a display of the railroad? ganguinary record, on the other the same plea for delay and “careful consideration of plans,” which has always been a con- spicuous feature of the corporative pro- gram. No valid reason can possibly be! given why grade crossings within the city should not be abolished; even the most enthusiastic friends of the railroad com- Pery admit that present conditions are antiquated and continuously perilous to these who are unfortunate enough to come | into collision with the company’s rolling stock. In the course of yesterday's hear- dng it was shown that about four hundred trains move in and out of the Baltimore and Ohio depot every twenty-four hours and as each of these trains crosses many | streets it must be apparent to even the | dullest of minds that traffic along those highways must suffer great delay and costly inconvenience. It is known and Was made clear to the subcommittee that @ince 1878 at least twenty-four persons have been killed and seventy-nine injured ‘at crossings of the B. and O. inside the city limits, and in the same period thirty- three persons: were killed and one hundred and one injured at Pennsylvania railroad crossings in the same territory. That ‘many more of these preventable accidents, but of the minor sort, have never been chronicled even in the daily press is cer- tain. The argument most frequently used by the railroad company when called upon to defend itself was again made to duty yesterday. One of the eompany’s Tepresentatives called attention to the charge of procrastination and promptly transferred the blame to the shoulders of conflicting delegations of citizens. who, said he, think one year that they want ene thing and the next year they want another. He insisted that there is a de- sire on the part of the Baltimore and Ohio Company to improve its terminal facilities within the District, but declared it to be a serious matter which should be well con- sidered and never hurried. There is a little of fact in the charge made against eitizens and citizens’ associations, and, unfortunately, no room to doubt the evil effects of local disagreement, but it can truthfully be said that had the railroad company evinced a reasonably apparent desire to do something more than talk the differences of opinion emong the af- flicted ones would soon have vanished. ‘The subcommittee was yesterday informed that the railroad company wishes to come before Congress as soon as it cam prepare its plens. Two years ago the company’s attorneys assured the Senate District committee that the plans were then within a few days of completion, and this declara- tion was repeated from week to week do until the Fifty-second Congress went out | of business. Again and agein were en- gagements made between Senator McMil- Tan and his subcommittee on the one hand and the Baltimore and Ohio Company on the other; the committee records will show that the company failed to keep most of its engagements and that when it did make | an appearance it never had any progress to report. In view of these facts it is not astonishing that many Washington- janis and more than a few of our national legislators became possessed of an idea that the company was inclined to be in- sincere, and that the few plans made by its draughtsmen were for purposes of dis- play only. If the Baltimore and Ohio management really desires to meet the people of the District of Columbia half- way in this most important matter it must do much better in the immediate future tran it has in the past. SS Congress must now be fully aware of the necessity for a municipal building in the District. A convincing array of facts was strongly presented to the House Committee on Public Buildings and Grounds yesterday, end it may reasonably be expected that a favorable report will soon be made to the House. In that body there are, of course, ‘very many members who have little or no in- terest in the District of Columbia, in spite of the fact that it is the seat of national government and, by the terms of the Con- stitution of the United States, is entirely dependent upon Congress for even the most trivial sort of legislation. Some of these careless members may not want to wade through all the testimony submitted, but they can convince themselves in a few min- utes that a public building is urgently meeded by a brief inspection of the con- demned structure. And the building to which the District's municipal officials must be moved should not be a rented building. ‘The idea of hiring quarters for the accom- modation of public otficers is unbusiness- like, and its practice unprofitable. Capitali- zation of the amounts paid im rentals would put up a masgnilicent structure, creditable alike to the city of Washington and the United States; of which latter, it should be remembered, Washington is the capital. ————_ es ___ ‘Those grave robbers were positively dis- courteous in their impatience.

After expressing his regret for the strained relations of the two governments, President Dole says: “Such regret, on my part, is only equaled by my inability to understand how it has come about that a government and community which is today more closely con- nected with the United States by ties of commerce, friendship and blood than an; other lying beyond its borders, which valu your friendship above that of all other na- tions, which fully admits and appreciates the many and deep obligations which it is under to your government and people, which has done you and your country no wrong, has been forced into a position where in de- fense of their very right to exist they have been obliged to take up arms to meet the Possible hostility of that country whose flag they revere and whose principles of liberty they love. I cannot but believe that it has arisen through a misunderstanding of facts on the part of your government and mutual misapprehension of motives and intentions, which may, I sincerely hope, at an early day be cleared away.” —. +42 —__ Partialiy concealed by diplomatic clouds is a most interesting situation in which Great Britain and the United States are ‘That friction exists be- tween the two governments as to the Ber- ing Sea seal-fishery regulations is no secret, | but it was supposed that when the court of arbitration decided as to the legal rights | and equities of the powers involved all | real trouble was at an end. But the re- marks uttered by some of England's states- men soon after the decision w made public threatened disturbance, and it was evident that Great Britain was very much disgusted at the findings of the arbitrators. Predatory privileges long enjoyed by Brit- ish and Canadian sealers were either ab- breviated or wholly cut off, and the Eng- lish firms which have made great fortunes out of the preparation of sealskins also 8&W a most depressing diminution of profits in the enforcement of ‘the regulations adopted by the tribunal which met in Paris last year. There is no reason why the the contested points. The arbitrators de- cided against this country in its claim to supreme jurisdiction over Bering Sea, but they gave to this nation ‘a right to pro- tect the seals from destruction, and this right Great Britain—pledged to uphold— seems to be endeavoring to obscure and nullify through a policy of obstruction and delay. “It is intimated that Secretary Gres- ham will not give way to the pressure which is being so diplomatically exerted by her majesty’s ambassador to this govern- ment, but is endeavoring With all the force at his command to make the regulations stronger and to provide a stiff penalty for their violation. It seems to be understood around the State and Navy Departments that the policy of seal protection during the season just about to open will be of the aggressive variety. ‘This will accord with the popular American idea, and prom- ises to be highly creditai le to the admin- istration.
