The question of a sufficient supply of pure water has of late been made prominent by annoyingly-conspicuovs shortcomings, so it was with real interest that the people of the District who reside on the bfher levels read of the committee's recommen- dation of an appropriation of 3125,v00 for raising the height of the dam at Great Falls. The necessity for this has often and strongly been presented to Congress by Col George H. Elliot, the engineer officer in charge of the Washington aque- duct. In his annual report of operations during thé last fiseal year, Col. Elliot stated that during the past summer com- plaints of the searcity of water were many, and that they came not oxly from the higher parts of the city, supplied by grav- ity, but from other portions of the Dis- trict whence complaints have never before issued. Since then the area of high serv- ice has been steadily extended, and, as a matter of course, there has been decrease in the pressure. In the report referred to, Col. Eliiot say: “I should further remark in connection with this subject that the object of rais- ing the hecd of water at the intake of the cenduit is to increase the velocity through the conduit, and thus enable it to bring more water down from Great Falls and in- to the distributing reservoir, to the end that the water in this reservoir may be kept up to its proper height of 146 feet above datum It may be found, however, that even with the water in the distribut- ing reservoir at this height, it will not re- store the pressures in the city (which by reason of the rapid increase in consump- tion and waste are constantly falling) to what they were when the 48-inch main, which [ laid in 1890, was first put in opera- tion. Im this case it will be necessary at orce to finish the tunnel connecting the distributing reservoir with the new reser- voir near Howard University, or to lay another 48-inch main from the distributing reservoir to and through the city. It should be understood, however, that neither of these is the alternative of raising the dam at Great Falls, which must be done in any case, and with the least delay practi- cable.” The bill, however, makes no provision for doing anything with the Lydecker tunnel— perhaps because the committee thought a little procrastination might be excusable under present Treasury conditions—but the authorities should do their utmost to per- suade the Senate committee that there would be true economy in having the reno- vation of the tunnel proceed, to the end that it may be utilized in some way, while the work of heightening the dam is being carried on. It may be that Congress will not at this time listen patiently to a propo- sition looking to the relining of that ser- pentine hole-in-the-ground which will al- ways be Lydecker’s most fitting monu- ment, but there is no reason why the mains needed should not be laid in the tun- nel. The expense of pumping out and keeping comparatively dry that structural- ly-weak excavation would not be very great, while the advantage of having the mains where inspection would be easy is surely evident enough to merit general in- dorsement. The provisions of the bill as to the col- lection and disposal of garbage place in the hands of the District Commissioners authority that properly applied can hardly fail to bring about a better state of af- fairs than any this city has known in all the history of its refuse-handling troubles. The choice between the modern methods of cremation and reduction is left entirely to the Commissioners, while what appears to be a sufficient sum of money is appro- priated to put the tentative reform in good working order. As soon as the bill becomes a law—it may be at an earlier date—the Commissioners will doubtless in- vestigate as to methods of disposal and as soon thereafter as possible will put in operation the plant they deem best suited to the surrounding conditions. — ree -—_— Some cf the many charitable people In Washington have responded with comimend- able alacrity to appeals that have been taade public through the columns of The Star. There is great distress in homes that until recently knew nothing of the sorrows and sufferings of the poverty-afflicted; it is such as these that are being sought out and made coniparatively comfortable by the benevelent folks in whom this com- munity is so rich. There are opportunities in plenty for those who have never yet ex- perienced the pleasure that can only come from the giving of sorely-needed relief to others. —___ + e+ ‘There were seventy-eight men employed on the city post office building today in spite of the drizzling rain, which came down so persistently. That old-time caicu- lation of The Star's had it that seventy- eight men of the right varieties might pos- sibly complete the building by May 21, 1896. Stronger testimony than any of- fered by mere figures indicates completion somewhere in the neighborhood of August 17, 1lw06. The work of consiruction kas been under way for two years, ten months and fifteen days. — District Commissioners could be their strictly office or desk building long enough to da coupls of hours, morn- oa Ith street, betwee Pennsylvania and New York avenues, there reely be a doubt that they would, jouble their efforts to re- If the spared fre dut eceasionally s ing and can without delay, leve the pressure of travel and lessen the risks of fatal accidents on that over- crowded bit ef theroughfare. That there has not been more than one person killed or maimed at that point during the unusuai congestion inci to the iate holiday season is wholly due to good luck, and, if such a calzmity should at any time o the final responsibility cannot fail to rest on official shoulders, whoever or whatever may at the moment appear biamable. The gripman ‘or the conductor may, in seme instances and in some degree, be open to censure, but they have no power to remedy the existing radical defects. Con- gress alone can do that, and it should do it promptly end effectively. It is, however, none the less the duty of the Commission- ers to exert themselves to the utmost to- ward attaining the important end in view, net only by making the necessary recom- mendations to the legislative body, but by persistently and energetically prodding our sluggish legislature until it acts, for they are recognized representatives of the peo- ple of the city in this, as In other matters. One simple and sure means of obtaining at least a measure of relief is, as The Star has heretofore potnted out, to connect the ‘4th street cable car tracks with those of the Georgetown line at the intersection of Pennsylvania avenue and 14th street. in- stead of at the corner of 15th street and | ten on their dishon THE EVENING STAR, TUESDAY,. JANUARY ‘8, 1895-TWELVE PAGES. New York avenue as at present, This ehange could easily be made without much delay, and at no great inconvenience to the public. Its beneficial effects would “be four-fold, and of immense advantage. It weuld lessen by one-half the car travel on that now choked-up passage way, thus diminishing the risks of danger to life and limb fn that proportion. In the second Place it would much better serve from 73 to 90 per cent of the travel on the 1ith street line, by the considerable saving in distance and time thus secured, to say nothing of greatly increasing their comfort and safety by avoiding two of the three dangerous street-corner curves required by the existing arrangement. Thirdly, it would permit the removal of the transfer station shed from its present undesirable and dangerous location to a point on the scuth side of Pennsylvania avenue, where it would be neither an obstruction to travel ner an eyesore, both of which it is now. Still another gain would be secured by this change, which should not be lost sight of. It would take from New York avenue, be- tween Lith and i5th streets, the double cable track now used by the Mt. Pleasant or léth street line, leaving there only the tracks of the Columbia line, thus giving to that square the freer use of the street for business uses, which its growing interests demand. ‘The desire of the Washington and George- town company, when its change of motive power to the cable was made, was to run its 14th street line due north from the ave- nue intersection, as herein proposed, but Congress failed to authorize it to do so. To require the change now, will involve the loss of what has been spent on the 15th street route and the additional expense of the new construction, and the road will have a reasonable grievance against Con- &ress for its refusal to permit this work to be done when the interests of everybody concerned would have thereby been inex- pensively served. The road will, however, be permanently benefited by the alteration of its route, and the change is necessary before it can become the ideally_ con- structed railway which it aspires to be. Leaving the wishes and interests of the railway out of consideration, the safety and welfare of the public demand that the change of route should be made, and Con- ress should lose no time in seeing that it is made without unnecessary delay. -~ ee It is safe to say that the cause of art will not suffer to any appreciable extent by the determination of the District authori- ties to suppress the cheap pictorial speci- mens which have undreped figures in sug- gestive poses as subjects.
