SEWERS AND TRACKS Questions Discussed by the Northeast Citizen’s Association. The Long Fight Against the B. and O. Grade Crossings. LETTER TO COMMISSIONERS Last night’s rainstorm had the effect of keeping at home many members of the Northeast Washington Citizens’ Assocta- tion, but those who attended the meeting manifested a lively interest in matters per- taining to the northeast sectiop, especially the grade-crossings of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, as wal as some of the cross- ings not on the grade. President Tucker, in calling the meeting to order, said he thought the District Commissioners de- served praise for their recent order requir- ing all incoming trains on the Washington branch of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad to come to a full stop before crossing H street. In this connection President Tucker said that the Commissiorers were asked by the association to make such an order scon after the organization of the associa- tion, and he said that had this order been in effect several years ago Mr. Brahler. who los: his Ife or the crossing, wouid not have been killed. He also spoke of another accident, in whick a car on the Columbja street railroad was thrown from the track into a ditch and several persons seriously injured. In conclusion, he said he hoped the Commissioners would have power to enferce the provisions of the order. ‘The association then discussed briefly the plan of the East Washington Citizens’ As- sociation to reclaim the Anacostia flats. President Tucker explained that he had received a request from that association to appoint a member of the Northeast Asso- ciation to represent the organization on the committee in charge of the improve- ment of these flats. He appointed Mr. Frizzell, who made his report of the mee ing and spoke of the. big Rosedale sewer which empties into the Eastern branch. This sewer, he said, is twenty-two feet in diameter and empties not more than 1,200 feet from 15th street. He told of the large amount of territory drained by this sewer, including Mt. Pleasant and Le Droit Park, and said that even at this season of the year the sewage is very offensive. This Sewage, he said, is dumped out on the flats and there it is permitted to lie until high tide comes along and takes some of it away. There is a small canal through the flats for about 1,200 feet-und the filth from the sewer is carried through this until it is scattered over the flats. The committee, he said, had determined that immediate rélief of this sewer is neces- sary and the report of the committee, printed in Friday’s Star, was submitted. Maj. Burke wanted to know if Mr. Friz- zell remembered when ex-Gov. Shepherd offered to reclaim the flats and take half the ground. He sald probably something of this sort might be done now. Mr. Frizzell said that since then Congress had given the Commissioners authority to lay out the suburban streets and he thought when this is done the flats will soon be reclaimed. The report of the committee was adopted after some further discussion. President Tucker in explaining the mat- ter of money available mentioned the fact that there are seven sewers emptying into the branch. Dr. McAllister spoke of the matter, and said he thought President Tucker and others ought to be thanked for what had been done in this matter. Railrond Affairs. When the report of the railroad com- mittee was called for Secretary Miller made his report. The committee, he said, had had two meetings and had addressed a letter to the Commissioners, a synopsis of which was printed in last Friday’s Star. The letter was signed by W. I. Frizzell, H. H. Martin and W. O. Miller, members of the subcommittee on railroad matters. Mr. Frizzell said that the matter had been submitted to District Attorney Bir- ney, but as no answer was received from him the matter was presented to the Dis- trict Commissioners, and they promised to give the matter an early consideration. He said the Commissioners were asked if it would be judicious to give a copy of the letter to the reporters and was told that under the rule the reporters were not given such matters until after they had been considered by the board. “But,” he said, “in some way The Star reporter got the letter and a synopsis of it appeared In The Star that afternoon.” A Long Fight. President Tucker moved that the associa- tion second the efforts of the subcommittee, and speaking on the resolution he said that this matter was discussed during the early days of the association. The association, he said, was organized as an anti-grade crossing association, for the protection” of the lives of the citizens. He also read a newspaper report of one of the early meet- ings of the association bearing upon the question of grade crossings. Concerning the question of fencing the tracks the order, he said, had been obeyed by the Baltimore and Potomac Railroad Company. This fence, he said, is an orna- ment, and hides from view the cars left standing on the tracks. But the Baltimore and Ohio company, he said, has thus far disregarded the order. Mr. Frizzell, interrupting, said he under- stood that a warrant had been fssued for Mr. Alvey, and the case was set for trial teday. President Tucker continued to read the re- port of the meeting held long ago, and said the Commissioners were foliowing directly in the line of the suggestions made by the fon at that time. happell made some remarks on the question, and the motion of President Tucker was adopted. Other Reports. The chairmen of other committees were called upon for reports, but there were no reports made. The Herdic Company was congratulated fer its reduction to 3 cents of its fare. J. G. Birchfield resigned the chairmanship of the street committee, and Walter A. Johnston was appointed his successor. A vote of thanks was tendered Health Officer Woodward for his promptness in recommending the grading and paving of an alley near 13th and H streets, which was eomplained about by the association. Complaint against the G street crossing of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, and a resolution asking the Commissioners to have the same paved and put in good con- dition, was passed. On motion of Mr. Martin, the association voted to request removal of abandoned sidewalks on Delaware avenue between G and H streets. After the transaction of other matters of routine business the association adjourned. SS Patriotic League. It is probable that there will shortly be organized here a District branch of the Patriotic League, which was chartered un- der the laws of Congress October 7, 1891. ‘The object of the league is to cultivate the knowledge of American principles, laws, history and progress, and to instill Amerl- into the minds and hearts of native and adopted, of both . and alt ages, sects and partics. A number of chapters have already been formed throughout the country, the testi- monial tendered to the Rev.

On a pleasant April morning thirty year® ago today began the few simple details of the great historic scene of the surrender at Appomattox of the Army of Northern Vir- ginia, commanded by Gen. Robert E. Lee, to Gen. Ulysses S. Grant, commanding the armies of the United States. The only staff officers now living that participated in this historical occasion, which closed the war of the rebellion, are Col. J. W. Marshall, who was on the staff of Gen. Lee, now a resident of Baltimore, Md., and Col. Horace Porter and Col. Ely S. Parker, who reside in New York, and Col. Amos Webster, a resident of Wash- ington, D. C., who were on the staff of Gen. Grant. A movement is on foot for the govern- ment to appropriate a sufficient amount of money to purchase the memorial spot, con- vert it into a public park and appoint rep- resentative officers of both armies as a ccmmission to arrange all the details for the purpose of maintaining it, in order that the historical ground may be perpetuated. —— LIQUOR LAW VIOLATORS. Their Prospective Vigorous Prosecu- | tion by the Anti-Saloon Lengue. A vigorous crusade against the sale of liquor in the District of Columbia was mapped out at a meeting held yesterday afternoon in the Washington Loan and Trust building by the executive commit- tee, and the committee on co-operation of the Anti-Saloon League. Several plans of procedure were proposed, and the best will be presented for consideration and adoption at the general meeting next Mon- day of the league. Messrs. Albert E. Shoe- maker, Anson S. Taylor, H. B. Moulton and Andrew Wilson were appointed as a legal committee to determine what should be done in the way of prosecuting saloon keepers who sell Iyuor to minors or on Sunday.

The boy who gave the alarm of fire Saturday night when St. Mary’s Catholic School was badly damaged by fire is a son of a member of the fire department, and it was due to his kind act that much more damage was not done, While the police of Lieut” Kelly’s precinct have been making every effort to capture the incendiary they have thus far been unsuccessful, and have but Httle hope now of arresting the fire bug. Yesterday compiaint was made to the police that another mysterious wo- man had been suspected. The woman, it was reported, had been loitering about St. Aloysius Church, and the approach of a policeman in uniform seemed to frighten her away. Lieut. Kelly, to whom the com- plaint was made, thinks this woman has no idea of burning the church, but that she is a church-goer, who is spending most of her time about the church during the Len- ten season. Private Detective McDevitt is making an investigation of the case, and he expects to effect the capture of the fire bug.
