After the report closed in last night's Star of the discussion at the special mect- ing of the board of trade held yesterday afternoon at Willard Hall, for the purpose of considering the bond issue plan, there was further debate, and then the following resolutions, presented by Mr. A. S. Worth- ington, were adopted: “Resolved, that the board of trade = fly indorses the proposition to issue She to the amount of $7,500,000 to raise ran Necessary to complete the sewerag®%sy tem of the District in accordance with 4 plans recommended in 1890 by the board of sanitary engineers, and also for urban and suburban street extension and improve- ment after plans for extending the same in harmony with the present city streets and avenues shall be approved. “Resolved, that proportionate contribdu- tion by the national Ce ees —- Boo of these improvements, out exception, is a vital feature of the proposed legisla. tion.” This action was unanimous, as shown by the rising vote which was taken, with the exception of Mr. W. C. Dodge, who was opposed to the issue of bonds for any larger amount than was _ necessary to extend ithe sewers in accord- ance with the plan of the board of en- gineers. Mr. Dodge, in the course of his remarks, emphasized the importance of carrying out the plan of sewer extension as recommended by the board of sanfta' engineers, and said that in regard toy th! improvement he was confident that the was no dissenting opinion among the ¢i zens of the District. He was heart and soul in favor of the is- sue of four and one-half miilion of dol- lars in 8 per cent District bonds for sewer extension work. He exp! . however, his decided opposition to the proposed issue of three millions of bonds to pay for the ex- tension of the city’s streets. He spoke of the present debt on the District of $18,- 000,000, and said that this debt was six times as great per capita as that of any of the southern states. He claimed that by adding this additional amount the District would be too heavily burdened. He pre- dicted that if the friends of this bill .per- sisted a ‘une. me as bre rs it, viding for x for 8 i tension, that the measure would be killed. e said, had already refused to pay its re in the improvement of sub- urban streets and it will be found that that body will throw out this provision for street extension. Various Views Expressed. Previous to Mr. Dodge’s remarks, Mr. T. L. Holbrook made quite a lengthy speech in which he favored the measure with oe exception that the pending bill in severe! particulars could be amended to advantage. le offered as amendments to the bill s¢v- eral recommedations which had been ed by the Washington Brick Exchange, which provided specifically that the plans of bebe or hey wane at Gan should be follow t no part of e pl of the sale of — — be hw experiments, etc. Gratification was ex- oy Mr R. Ross Perry that no dis- senting voice had been heard as to the im- portance and necessity of the measure. He laid emphasis specially on the necessity of improving the sanitary condition of the eity. In regard to the objections offered by Mr. Holbrook, Mr. Perry was of the opinion that the details of the execution of the work could be properly trusted to those who would be in charge of it and if mis- takes were made they could be corrected. In the opinion of Mr. A. S. Worthing- if this bill was to be cut in half as by Mr. Dodge he believed that it would be more to the public interest to re- tain the half which would authorize the extension of streets than the part which gives authority for sewer extension, im- {mene as the latter work He ref fo his work in connection ith preparing the street extension bill and dwelt on the heavy expense which a further delay in carrying out the scheme of street exten- sion would involve. He believed that the board should place itself on record as favoring the general principle involved, leaving the details of the bill to be worded by the la whose function that was. Government and the District. Attention was call by Mr. C. C. Glover to the fact that the so-called highway law for street extension divided the cost be- tween the property-owners and the Dis- trict. The bond-issue plan bill ‘makes the bonds payable half by the government and half by the District, so that when the bond- issue plan becomes a law it is evident that the old relations of the government and the District as to street improvements in the suburbs would be restored. He spoke of the tages to the District of the street ex- tension, and cited the case of the Rock Creek Park as an illustration of how del in the acquisition of that property cost t! government double in the course of four, years. es Mr. B. H. Warner quoted figures showing the large sums cf money that had been e@x~ pended by private individuals in the county. in the way of public improvements. He showed how the spread of the system of wide, | oneers streets had improved prop- erty. He quoted the statistics of the popu- lation of Washington and said that this wond growth was due to the influence of the enterprise and energy of Alexander R. Shepherd. This sentiment was loudly applauded, and Mr. Warner went on to say that if the people of this District supported this measure in a weak-kneed way it would get the same kind of support in Congress. strong speech was made by Mr. John Joy Edson in support of the measure. Mr. W. H. Moses also indorsed the measure, and then, as stated above, the resolution was. adopted and the meeting adjourned. A vote of thanks was extended to Mr, Staples for the use of the hall. —$—<_ EXCURSIONS. > ‘Tomorrow a day of recreation and pleas- ure may be had at the green lawns at Mar- shall Hall.

AMUSEMENTS. =lAlbaugh's.—Monday night next will mark ® departure from the conventional lines of summer amusement in Washington. The mamagement at Albaugh’s Grand Opera House will present during the week commencing Monday night a liné of high-class and refined specialties. The artists, who will amuse the public, have been selected from the highest ranks of specialty performers. The majority of them have been performing at the prominent roof gardens in New York city, and were brought here direct from New York. No two acts will be alike. The Ust for this week will consist of Helene Mora, the world-renowned female baritone and male impersonator; George H. Wood. whose well-known monologues have amused millions; La Petit Freddie, the boy wonder, in songs, dances and unique and original specialties; Dashaway and Moulton in hori- zontal bar acts and other artistic acrobatic features; Capitola Forrest in high kicking, songs and dances; Georgia Bryton in re- fined London music hall specialties; Monroe Muck, the famous black face artists, end Harrigan, the tramp juggler. In ad- wto this list of specialties a new series of living pictures, the subjects of which will be taken from the paintings of the famous artists of the day, will be given at every performance. Twenty of these pic- tures will be shown each night, among them being the world-renowned picture by Schneider, entitled, “The Dancing Hour in the Temple of Dionysius.” This picture will be the largest ever exhibited, filling the entire stagé and presenting twelve living subjects. A special frame is for this picture. New National Theater.—The Summer Comedy Company at the New National Theater wil) next week, present ‘Ruth's Romance” and “A Bachelor of Arts.” Both these pieces were given ldst season with great success by this company. Base Ball at Kernan's.—Manager Ker- fan will on next Wednesday (4th of July) ‘ate another interesting novelty to ashington. The Washington Base Ball Sdftgpsether with the opponent’s grounds - yers, will be represented on the sta, messe i$ the Lyceum by means of an im- lackboard, with the diamond and basés Shaped upon it. At each base is a hook, upon which is hung a card, bearing the name of a player—for instance, if Joyce of Washington is first at bat, a card with his name upon it is placed on the home plate, ould he make a safe hit the card is transferred to first base and so on—every detail of the play being given by an operator who will receive the news by special wire direct from the original game. This novel enterprise will enable the Washington “fans” to witness their club’s work while away from home. Besides the above the score by innings of all the clubs in the league will be posted—in fact, for the time being the theater will be transformed into @ veritable base ball park, with the ex- ception of the bleachers, which in this case will be free from sun. Admission will be 10 and 25 cents. Bethesda Park.—The sacred concerts given at Bethesda Park on Sunday attract large crowds to this pleasant resort, and those who desire to get away from the hot and dusty city and enjoy cool breezes and good music can find no better place to go.

BNTIRELY ASIDE FROM EARNINGS EXVECTED, investors should observe that the sale of the company’s property at the Beach will rapidly retire all bonded indebtedness, leaving the rund unin. cumbered, after which time ALL EARNINGS over operating expenses go to the benefit of the stock. The company bas seen fit te offer a certain portion of its bonds (which are secured both upon the beach property and the railway property now owned, or that shall hereafter be acquired) to the Washington public with the extraordinary benefits of 50 per cent stock participation, for the reason that the enterprise is distinctly a Washington affair n which every citizen ts directly interested, and frou which every property bolder will beneiit, whether a sharebolder or not, by the successful comple- tion of this greatest of Washington attractions: besides that, the management desires to give such Denefits as the company can afford to those who will be patrons of the road and the beach, in pref- erence to those who usually secure the €ream ef such enterprises. Every citizen of Washington 4s algo tn a better position to judge of the certainty of the financial success that is Lg to follow the opeulng up of this great resort, to and from which they can go at any hour of the @&y at the Bominal cost of 60 cents. Professional railway men, and those who bave made examination of the work dome and being done, declare that the estimates given by the company are far below what the actual results will be. J H. C.
