COLUMBIA HEIGHTS The Citizens’ Committee Favors Increas- ing Number of Commissioners, Business Transacted at the Meeting Last Night — Representative of County on the Board. The regular monthly meeting of the Co- lumbia “Heights Citizens’ Association was held last evening at Mission Hall, 14th street and Florida avenue. The meeting was but slightly attended, yet much busi- ness was transacted. In the absence of President Gilbert M. Towles, Secretary George Simmons prestded. After the mmutes of the previous meet- ing had been read and approved, Mr. Thos. J. Lasier, from the special committee ap- pointed to urge upon Congress the passage of the $7,500,000 bond bill, reported that while the measure had failed at the last session, he was confident that 1t would yet Prevail. It was sure of passage,he thought, if the citizens’ associations of the District worked with the board of trade .in pushing it before the coming Congress. He ,there- fore suggested that the preseut committee of five be discharged, and a new commit- tee of three be appointed, fer the purpose of uniting wita similar committees from the various associations of the District in working for the passage of the bill. Mr. Lasier's suggestion was adopted, and he and Gilbert M. Huested and E. G. Jeffries were appointed as such committee. Telegraph Poles. Mr. Simmons announced that the West- ern Union Telegraph Company would soon remove their pcles frem Sherman avenue, and Mr. Pixton stated that his com- mittee had not yet been able to induce the express or telegraph companies to extend their free delivery system north of Florida avenue. But, at his suggestion, the secre- tary of the association was directed to communicate with the companies and re- quest an extension of the free delivery system northward to Whitney avenue. In response to an invitation from the executive committee of the United Sub- urban Citizens’ Associations, the chairman of the committee appointed to confer with other associations on the bond bill, Mr. Lasier, was selected to represent the as- pitas on the said executive commit- ce. Representative Wanted. Secretary Simmons then offered the fol- lowing resolution, which was adopted: “Re- solved, That the representation of this ‘association is hereby specially instructed to press upon the attention of said com- mittee the importance of working for the appointment of a representative and bona tide resident of the county outside of the cities of Washington and Georgetown to the next occurring vacancy in the board cf District Commissioners.” The appointment of the following as a committee on legislation, the committee having been authorized at the preceding meeting of the association, was announced: E. G. Jeffries, chairman; Mrs. John A. Logan, M. A. Ballinger, Gilbert M. Husted, Patrick O'’Ferrall, S. G. Lovejoy, George Simmons, A. K. Tingle and L. P. Williams. Foim of Government. Upon the motion of Mr. Lasier, a reso- lution was adopted referring to the present form of District government as autocratic, unrepublican and undemocratic, and an- thorizing the committee on legislation to invite sister associations to confer as to the best means of bringing about such a change of government as will meet the ap- proval of the whole people of the District. In support of his motion Mr. Lasier stated that it seemed to him that the people cf the District desired a change in their pres- ent form of government, io the extent, at least, of increasing the mumber of Com- missioners. The number, he believed, should be at least seven. The present number, he thought, is too small, for it savored too much of autocracy. He referred to the at- tempt of the Commissioners to muzzle their subordinates as foolish and imprac- ticable, and declared that a larger board of Commissioners would never have dared to attempt such a peculiar and unfair thing as the withholding of news the people have the right to have. Mr. E. G. Jeffries also favored increasing the number of Commissioners from three to seven. When the present number was authorized, he explained, the District had @ population of about only 150,000, while now it has a population of 275,000. Then it paid taxes on but about $90,000,000, while that amount is now increased to about $200,000,000. Then, too, the annual expendi- tures of the District were about only $1,- 600,000, while now they exceeded $5,000,000, Those figures, said Mr. Jeffries, showed the wonderful growth and advancement of the District, and the fact is, he remarked, the District has grown beyond the capabilities of three Commissioners. As shown by The Star's voting inquiry, explained Mr. Jef- fries, the people of the District are opposed” to a change in the system of government, but, he believed, all would agree that the number of the Commissioners should be increased. When that is done. said Mr. Jeffries, and the District is given a code of laws, there will be no cause for com- plaint. = Other Business. Upon the motion of Mr. Simmons Sena- tors Gorman and Sherman were elected honorary members of the association in rec- ognition of their efforts to prevent the erec- tion of the proposed contagious hospital on Columbia Heights. Mr. Simmons next moved that the boun- dary of the association be extended to Spring road on the north and Florida and Grant avenues on the south, so as to in- clude Holmead Manor, but the matter went over until the next meeting. Mr. Jeffries having introduced the ques- tion of the association's consolidation with the Mount Pleasant Citizens’ Association, a resolution introduced by Mr. Losier, de- claring it to be inexpedient to merge the association with any other, and that it is wiser to remain apart and separate, was unanimously adopted. Mr. McFarland, however, at first favored consolidation, re- ferring to the small attendance at the meetings, and claiming that the associa- tion got nothing, while the Mount Pleasant association got all they asked. Before announciag an adjournment until the first Tuesday in May, Secretary Sim- mons stated that at the May meeting ex- Commissioner Myron M. Parker would de- liver an address. At the next meeting, too, the annuah election of officers would be held, announced Mr. Simmons. —_—.__—_ Volunteer Firemen. The annual meeting of the Veteran Vol- unteer Firemen’s Association was held last evening, when officers for the ensuing y2ar were elected as follows: President, James H. Richards; vice president, Jordan Peirce; treasurer, John Suter; recording secretary, John J. Peabody; financial secretary, Julius Strobel; marshal, John W.

During the evening the various committees submittcd reports, all of which were approved. Ee Officers Elected.

Sauer; secretary, Charles Rogier; treasurer, George Bessler; trustees, Charles Fleish- man and F. Weinberger. —— He Took the Money. Edward Shorter, a colored boy, pleaded guilty today to embezzling the sum of $5 from George Kingsbury, a coal dealer, on the llth of last month. The boy told Judge Cole that Mr. Kingsbury sent him out with a load of coal, and that he car- ried off the money given him in payment for the coal because he needed it to buy shoes. Judge Cole sentenced the boy to a year and a day in the penitentiary. ——— The New Cruiser Olympia. ‘The new cruiser Olympia has left the Mare Island navy yard on a practice cruise to the south.

It 1s probable that the boiler makers’ strike, which has been on for several weeks past in Cleveland, Ohio, will be amicably settled within a few days. The executive board of the Pittsburg dis- trict United Mine Workers is in session. No information will be given out, although it is known that the strike is the subject under discussion. The Pennsylvania house passed yester- day, with seventeen votes against it, the bill providing that none but citizens of the United States shall be employed in any capacity on public buildings or public work within the state. The fires were started Monday in the big steel mill of the Johnson Company at Lo- raine, Ohio, the construction of which was begun nine months ago. This was simply a test of the big furnace which is to con- vert pig iron into Bessemer steel. The Philadelphia Spreckels sugar re- finery closed down yesterday for an indefi- nite period. The refinery has a large stock of sugar on hand, and thought it advisable to shut down entirely rather than work on half time. The value of the exports of cutlery from Sheffield to the United States during the last quarter was £28,678, against £14,158 during the corresponding quarter in 1894, but the benefits of the new American tariff have been far less than traders there ex- pected. The strike of the flint glass workers against the United States Glass Company, which has been on for nedrly twenty months, seems to be nearing an end. cs ———_+e-— Virginians Charged With Smuggling. A special dispatch from Newport News, Va., last night is as follows: “Deputy United States Marshals C. C. Gofford and J. H. Perry returned to this city from Rich- mond this afternoon with bench warrants issued by the United States court, now in session in that city, for the arrest of W. Alien Haynes, P. J. Mugler and G. T. U: zell. They are charged with being impli- cated in the smuggling of two barrels of liquor from the Spanish steamship Alicia on July last. Mugler and Uzzell are prominent merchants of this city. This is the same case with which M. J. Donovan, who was arrested in Baltimore a few days ago, was said to be connected. They will be taken to Richmond.” Mr. Gresham's Pla Secretary Gresham has just made ar- rangements for the extension for another year of his lease of the rooms at the Ar- lington now occupied by him, which is taken as conclusive evidence of his inten- tion to remain in Washington.
