THE -COST OF THE SERVICE Character of the Work and the Results Secured. SUPT. DAVIS’ DEPAPTMENT. An interesting summary of the methods of cleaning the streets adopted in a number of the principal cities of the country was given in the annual repor. of Mr. Davis, the superintendent of the street cleaning department of this city. The report was published almost in full recently in The Star, and this portion is now given as follows: In Philadelphia street sweeping and cleaning and the collection and removal of ashes and garbage are done under the direction of the superintendent of the street cleaning department, by contract. The garbage is cremated. The total amount appropriated for the department for the year 1893 was $617,698, that expended was $584,281.90. How much was expended for street sweeping and cleaning does not ap- pesr, no separate accounts being kept. The system of sweeping and cleaning most of the asphalt and cement streets is similar to that in vogue on Pennsylvania avenue,with the exception that they are swept by ma- chine sweepers six times each week, in- stead of once or twice, as our avenue is, in addition to scooping up with scrapers all the droppings between the hours of 7 a.m. and 6 p.m. And these scrapings are placed | in receptacles on wheels, when full to be cmptied into carts and carted away, not scraped into small piles in the gutters, and then shoveled into carts and carried off, as is done here. I think our system of getting rid of these scrapings the best, however, bat wish Congress would make the appro- priation for this department large enough to admit of machine sweeping our beautiful avenue six times a week, in addition to the scraping it now receives. Under the new contract it will cost about $7,502.50 a year to scrape it. From Ist street to Rock creek bridge it contains 147,818 square yards of surface, to sweep which at 24 1-4 cents per 1,000 square yards would cost $35.85 a day, or $8,962.50 for 2) days, the average num- ber per year, making a total yearly cost of $16,525. The sweeping and cleaning of Broad street, Philadelphia, alone cost $62,- 888.75 for the fiscal year 1804, a sum larger by $2,725.93 than it cost to sweep and clean all the paved streets of Washington and Georgetown combined last year. The New York Streets. In New York city the street cleaning de- partment disposes of all materiel col- lected, including ashes, garbage and street sweepings, by carting it to eighteen dumps, situated on the East and North rivers, there dumping it on scows and carrying it to sea at ebb tide, except when used for filling-in purposes. The d it expended in 1su3 $2,212,323.11, $810,347.44 of which was for sw and 9637, 147.49 cleaning paved streets and for removing the sw Many of the streets are cleaned several times during the day. the department forces except Broadway from lith street to the Battery, which is done by contract. The total number of em- ployes in the deparument is 2,159. The ex- ecutive branch consists of 144 officials, as follows; One commissioner, $6,000; one deputy, $4,000; one chief clerk, $2,800; one superintendent, $3,000; one assistant super- ijatendent, $2,; one superintendent of stables, $2,000; eleven. district superintend- ents, $1,800 each; fifty-eight section fore- men, $1,000 each; twenty dump inspectors, $1,000 each; twenty assistant dump inspect- ors, $900 each; two tug and scow inspectors, _ — i eee examiner, $1,500; eight stal foremen, $1,200 each; eighteen ith salaries from $1,200 to $2,400 each. Sixty-five two-horse machine leys and unpaved streets and alleys Washington and Georgetown has averaged 25 per cent of the total expenditures of this department.) To sweep and clean Broadway it costs more than twice as much per annum as to sweep and clean all the paved streets of*our two cities, and yet I have heard it said, by way of comtparison, how much cleaner that busy mart is kept than our streets are. Why shouldn't its general condition be better than that of our average streets? But in point of cleanliness I am sure Pennsylvania avenue will bear favorable comparison with Broadway. or any other great thoroughfare in the coun- try, and the remainder of our streets would not suffer by comparison with the majority | of the cleanest-swept in any city. In Boston, the street cleaning department is divided into two divisions, viz., street cleaning division and saritary division,each | in charge of a deputy superintendent, with | a salary of $3,000. The superintendent of streets receives a salary of $7,500. The total amount expended by the street cleaning di- | vision for 1893-4 was $308,707.30, and of this amount, $1 38.87 was expended for Sweeping paved streets, including cost of removing sweepings. To this item must be .dded the cost of cleaning gutters, $25,- | 852.32, making the total cost, as we reckon | (the cost of cleaning our gutters being in- cluded in that of sweeping and cleaning streets) $155,992.39. Almost the entire busi- ness section of the city is swept six times a week. All work is done by the city, their machine brooms are similar to those used on our streets—25 in all, 10 single and 15 double. Number of employes, 309. System of sweeping and cleaning is similar to ours. one clerk, St week; seven assistant superintendents, per week each; one sweeper foreman, $24 per week; two sewer foremen, week each; one stable foreman, $24 per week. Most of the business streets are Swept six times a week, granite and brick pavements, two and three times a week, which, with asphalt, are all swept by ma- chines, eleven bcing used, conspicuous among them being “The Pride of New York,” the machine used on our streets. ‘The work is all Buffalo . yo the city. an ‘reet rtment expen. last The streets are swept from once a week to daily. The unpaved streets _ alleys ar+ in charge of the reau. The street cleaning t has nothing to do with them. Al work' is done by contract. Machine brooms are used, “The of New York” being among them. The city is divided into eight districts, and the contract for each district was advertised for and let itely. As & result, one contractor was allowed 46 and @ cents per square of 10,00 square feet for cleaning esphalt ard stone pavements, while another contracter was paid 32 and 34 cents, respectively, for the same class of work. The department handles garbage an ashes and the work is done by the city, the former being cremated just beyond the city line and the latter used for filling low lands. Last year $120.00 was expended in this branch of the department. In Providence the work of cleaning is done by day's work; nothing is done by contract. To do this 101 men and teams are employed. The ccst of the work for 1893, which does not irclude the removal of snow and ice, was $47,581.70. Some streets are swept daily by hand brooms, but the majority of them by machines, once, twice and three times per week, according to the traffic. Both brooms and sweeping ma. chines are made by the city. The depart- ment does not handle garbage or ashes, There are 185 miles of streets to be cleaned. In St. Paul, for 1803, there was expended for machine sweeping $21,599.04. For clean- ing dirt streets $14,367.43. Machine sweep- ing from one to six times a week, by night. Hand sweeping 1s constantly going on every day of the week. Alleys are not Swept. Machine sweeping is done by the city; hand sweeping by contract. Six two- horse machines are employed. As only about 3 oo) square yards of paved streets were swept during the year, it will be seen that the work costs at the rate of jover $1.70 for 1,000 square yards. Hand sweeping costs about $1.12 for 1,000 square | yards. department does not handle ashes or garbage. — > __ RIOTING IN CHICAGO. Dispute Over Rent Causes a Fatal Fight. A desperate fight which necessitated the turning in of a riot alarm and the calling out of three patrol wagons filled with police occurred late laet mght in front of No, 4:17 Ashland avenue, Chicago. One man was instantly killed, two were fatally hurt and four men and one woman eeriously in- jured. Dead—Herbert Ray, neck broken with paving stone and stabbed in breast. Fatally injured—Wm. Dunworth, left eye knocked out, skull fractured; Philip Mc- Grath, skull fractured. Seriously injured—James Dunworth, Donahan, head cut; Mrs. Lizzie Dunworth, right arm terribly cut. At 4117 Ashland avenue Mrs. Jas. Cook has a saloon on the first floor and the Dun- worth family with Cassidy, who is a brother of Mrs. Lizzie Dunworth, the i It is Expected to Put an End to the Disputed Record. The first annval twenty-mile road race over the Washington conduit course will take place on the 16th of October, H. W. Higham, the well-known cycle dealer, is promoting the event. Many valuable donations have been re- ceived as prizes from leading manufacturers and dealers, including one Eclipse racing wheel, donated by the Eclipse Cycle Com- | pony of Beaver Falls, Pa., and one Union Q. T., donated by the Union Cycle Manu- facturing Company of Boston, Mass. Entry blanks may be obtained at Mr, Higham’s place of business, No. Penn- sylvania avenue. October 16 was selected because it is like- ly that there will be good weather at that time and the road will, no doubt, be in prime condition. This will give the local fast riders an opportunity to compete for the many valuable prizes and the result will, it ts thought, put an end to the dis- pute about the holder of the record. It iz expected that most of the fast riders will enter the race. etl ra emer does not clean the alleys. luty devolves upon the abutt! erty holders. 456 BisKs Four hundred and thirty-five (435) persons are employed by the sanitary division. Ashes and offal are kept by householders in separate receptacles and collected by dif- ferent teams and men. The ashes of the city proper are carried to sea on two Barney dumping boats by the department tow-boats and dumped outside of Boston lights from four to twelve miles, accord- ing to the direction of the wind, a small portion of the collection, however, being used for filling up low lands. Seventy-five ber cent of the offal is disposed of to hog raisers. The balance is carried to sea on same dumping boats as 250.63, For house dirt and ashes, $298,- $44.21; house offal, $171,204.38; executive ex- penses, $11,252.04. Im Other Cities. In San Francisco the street sweeping 1s done by contract, and the manner of doing the work is similar to ours. The total amount expended last year of sweeping was $73,000. Most of the business section of the city is swept six times a week; the second-class streets, three times a week; third-class, eight times a month; fourth- class, four times a month, and fifth-class, once month. Paved alleys are swept ence a month. Unpaved streets and alleys are not swept. All sweeping is done by machine brooms. From fifty to seventy- five persons are employed by ment. The superintendent receives $4,000) @ year; chief deputy, $2,400; outside dep- uty, $2,400; accountant, $2,400; bookkeeper, $1,800; five deputies, $1,500 each; seven deputies, $1,500 each. The department does not handle ashes or garbage. The sweeping and cleaning of the streets of New Orleans are done by the department of public works. The sweeping is done by | hand, with rattan and bass brooms by laborers, who are paid $1.50 a day. Paved streets are swept about twice a week. Al- leys are all private, and the owners whose properties border on them are expected to keep them in good condition. Total cost of sweeping and cleaning paved streets last | year was $40,385.24, and the total number of men employed, 110. It formerly cost the | city $60,000 a year to collect and dispose | of garbage. A twenty-year contract was made last March for $570,000. The garbage | and kitchen refuse are taken to the rear of | the city and cremated. In this department | 232 persons are employed. Cincinnati expended $206,000 in 1843 for sweeping and cleaning streets, removing ashes and garbage, and cleaning sewers. As no separate account is kept, it is not known what was expended for sweeping and cleaning streets. There were 830 men cu the pay rolls, and the executive officers | | Colorado's Executive Charged With Opening Another's Letter. A warrant was issued at Denver yester- day afternoon for the arrest of Gov. Davis H. Waite on the serious charge of opening and retaining a letter addressed to Mrs, Likens, formerly matron at police head- quarters. The complaint was made by Mra. Likens. Gov. Waite pleaded “not guilty,” claiming he had not opened the letter, but that its contents had been read to him. The hear- ing of the case was set for Thursday, and when it was suggested that bail be fixed at 5,000 the prisoner sprang from his chair, the Moor im front of the commis- sioner and exclaimed: “I am the governor of this state, and these proceedings are held to interfere with me in the administration of my office. I will not give bail. You may send me to jail, but I will not give bail.” Finally the commissioner accepted Gov. Waite's personal recognizance to appear for trial in the sum of $100. s ——_ eee Democrats Opposed to Tammany. The New York state democracy made @ declaraticn of principles last night at the meeting of its executive committee in Cooper Union, New York. The Wilson bill was indorsed, and those democratic Con- gressmen from New York city who had op- posed it were denounced. It was decided not to enter into any deals or political ar- — with the Tammany n. ——__ +e+ —_ __ Primaries in South Carolina. Returns received from nearly all the coun- ties in the state of South Carolina indicate a light vote at the democratic primary, elections yesterday. The vote was for del- egates to the democratic state convention, to be held in September, which will nomi- mate candidates for governor and other state officers, as well as candidates for Con. gress, members of the legislature and county officers. At many places the conservative men abe stained from voting, and probably the Till- man vote fell off one-half as compared with the vote two years ago.
