CARS TO RON ALL NIGHT The Big Chorus and the Completion of Its Arrangements. STATE DELEGATIONS There is every evidence of industrious activity about the White Lot today. Prep- arations are being pushed for erecting the three Christian Endeavor tenty in which the principal meetings of the great con- vention will be held. As was stated in ‘The Star yesterday, electric light poles and a ninety-foot flag staff have been placed in position, and today tent poles have been erected and considerable other preliminary work accomplished. Up to noon the poles for two of the tents had been raised, the guy ropes rigged and the tent space pegged off. This afternoon will doubtless see the same work accomplished for the remaining tent. It is probable, however, that the canvas will not be stretched until tomorrow. The electric lighting company has been busy, too, putting cross trees and in- sulators on the poles which were erected yesterday. The wire will be strurg a3 soon as possible and arc lamps placed in position. There are ten electric light poles, and it is believed that this number of lights In the grounds themselves, exclusive cf those which will illuminate the tents, will be ample. Across from the White Lot, in one corner of the monument grounds, is still further evidence that Chairman Church and his as- sociates on the hali committee have been doing something more than holding meet- ings and considering plans. For several days a large force of carpenters has been hard at work making the settees which are to furnish the tents. A sufficient num- ber of these have been made and are now compactly piled up ready to be placed in position in the tents as soon as the can- vas is stretched. The carpenters are now engaged in preparing lumber and materials for building the platforms, which are to hold more people than some of the largest churches in the city. Regular Meeting. Last nicht the regular weekly meeting of the committee of 96 was held at head- quarters, though the session was shortened In order that the members might attend the chorus rehearsal of section A, which was held in Central Hall. The committee went down in a body, and were very much gratified at the efficiency and successful performance of the chorus. Matters of some importance, however, were brought before the committee. A cemmunication was read from President Dunlop of the Capital Traction Company to the effect that the cars of that company would be kept running all night Wednesday evening, July 8, if necessary. This is the day when the bulk of the visiting dele- getes will arrive in town, and the action of the street railroad company in making its offer was much appreciated. It is probable that although most of the delegations have pianned to arrive in the afternoon or eariy evening, so as to be in time to attend the preliminary meetings in the churches, trains will be behind schedules and other hindrances encountered, which will delay many of the delegates until after the time for stopping the cars. On behalf of the Metropolitan Company, i. was the*understanding in the committee last night that the F street branch would be in operation by the underground electric system by the time the delegates began to arrive, so that rapid transit on all the prin- cipal street car lines of the city is assured. It is the understanding that both the Capital Traction and Metropolitan com- panies will arrange to have a plentiful sup- ply ef cars on hand at both depots about the time large delegations are expected to arrive, in order to handle the crowds with exse. Coming on Wheels. As the time for the opening sessions of the fifteenth international Christian En- deavor convention draws rapidly nearer, information is received in this city concern- ing the plans of the several state delega- tions that expect to be represented in force next week. A novel method of journeying to the city has been planned by the Essex county Christian Endeavor Union of New Jersey. The members expect to come on bicycles. It is well known that the roads between Newark and Washington are excellent for Wheeling purposes, and while the under- taking is an uausual one, it is however, perfectly feasible, in the opinion of the projectors. Although the plan is still in its infancy, the Endeavorers who have heard of the proposed cycling trip have become enthu- siastic on the subject, and the committee in charge is sure that the affair will prove an immense success. It is the intention of the Essex county Endeavcrers to leave Newark, either July 4 or 6, at6a.m. Plainfield will be the first stopping place and the party will breakfast there. In making Plainfield, the route as planned takes the cyclists over the attrac- tive roads through Hilton and Springfield. Metuchen 1s the next objective point, and from there the riders will go to New Brunswick. From Metuchen the route will be direct to Princeton. At the last-named place time will be al- lowed to visit the college grounds and the town. From Princeton the route takes the riders to Trentcn, via Lawrenceville, where a stop for dinner and a short rest will be enjoyed. Bristol, Pa., is next on the program, and from there it is a trifle over twenty miles to reach Philadelphia. This is as far as the tourists will go on the first day. The next morning will be spent in visiting — of interest in and about the Quaker city. On leaving Philadelphia, Darby, Chester and Wilmington follow in order on the schedule. Supper will be had at Wilming- ton. From there the route takes the riders to Delaware City, via New Castle. At Dela- ware City the night boat of the Ericsson Line, @# well-equipped and comfortable steamer, carrying all wheels free, will be taken. The sail takes the party through the Delaware and Chesapeake canal and across the Chesapeake bay to Baltimore. On the third day the run from Baltimore to Washington will be made, via Washing- ton pike and Laurel. In all, the distance will not exceed 200 miles. The best roads only will be taken. Every effort is to be made by the com- mittee to make the trip full of enjoy- ment. The main body of delegates from New Jersey, however, expects to come by rail, over the B. and O. railroad, about 406 strong, arriving in this city Tuesday even- ing at 7 o'clock. The state officers and transportation committee will be on this train. About 150 Endeavorers from south New Jersey will come by steamer from Bridgeton. It is expected that the total New Jersey registration at this year’s con- Castoria For Infants and Children. CASTORIA DESTROYS WORMS. ASTORIA CURES CONSTIPATION. CASTORIA ALLAYS FEVERISHNESS.

Iowa and Delaware. Iowa expects to bring a delegation of from 500 to 700 Endeavorers. The party will rendezvous in Chicago from the vari- ous parts of the state on the morning of Tuesday, July 7, and leave at 9 o'clock over the Baltimore and Ohio railroad. It is ex- pected that the train will pull into the sta- tion near the Capitol about Wednesday noon. Iowa's hotel is the Bancroft, the most convenient in the city to the three large tents on the White Lot, and the Western Presbyterian Church is its church headquarters. A special train via Baltimore and Ohio railroad will leave Wilmington Wednesday morning, July 8, at 10 o'clock, bringing some of near-by Delaware's excursionists. At East Junction two car loads of delegates from Chester county, Pa., will be attached, and the united party is scheduled to reach this city In ample time for the preliminary meetings Wednesday night. Streamers the legend, “Delaware C. E. will be attached to the sides of the cars. Delegates from outside of Wilming- ton, living down the state, will travel con- ventionward via the Pennsylvania road, and will time their arrival to meet their friends on the other road when they come in. The enthusiasm is growing, and dele- gates are planning to attend in large num- bers. The well-known Delaware call— “Y—P-S—C_E Y—P—8—C—E Delaware : Peaches” will be heard from hundreds of young peo- ple who are proud of their small state. From Mlinois. From Illinois will come from one thou- sand to fifteen hundred Endeavorers. The largest delegation will be from Chicago, from which city probably four or five hun- dred delegates will be in attendance. The official train will leave Chicago Tuesday, July 7, at 6 p.m., over the Pennsylvania Short line. Pittsburg will be reached early the next morning for breakfast, where the party will be joined by other Illinois excur- sionists whs may have found it more con- venient to go direct to that city rather than meet the other delegates in Chicago. The ride through the Alleghenies and around the horse-shoe curve will be made in daylight, and occurring just after har- vest time, will be particularly pleasant. It will be somewhat of an educational trip also. From scenes of prosperous farm life and commercial activity, across Illinois and through Chicago, the metropolis of the west, to the industrial thrift of western Pennsylvania, with its extensive coke and fron interests, the route passes by scenes that have gone into history with the great Johnstown disaster, over the Alleghenies, along rivers and across Maryland to the legislative and educational center of this continent. Like nearly every other delega- tion, the Illinois excursion party is plan- ning to reach the city in ample time for the Wednesday night meetings. Their train ought to arrive not later than 6:30, an hour and a half before the services open. Banner State. Pennsylvania will doubtless be the ban- ner state, 20 far as attendance this year is concerned. It is estimated that probably 8,000 people will represent the keystone state during the convention. For this vast Lumber a great many trains will necessar- ily have to ke provided, and specials from all sections of the state are being arranged for. The Philadelphia Union is coming down, one thousand strong, in a train of its own, divided into two sections. Western Pennsylvania has engaged a special from Pitisburg, which is scheduled to leave at 8 o'clock Wednesday morning over the B. and O. railroad, arriving not later than 5:30 in the afternoon, giving plenty of time for all delegates to be located and get ready for the opening meetings in the dif- ferent churches of the city. On the way a stop will be made at Harper’s Ferry, and for half an hour the delegates will examine the places of interest in that historic town. Far-Off Montana. Montana 1s far away, and the cost to the delegates froth that state in railroad fare alone will be over $60. Yet the lecation of the convention is attractive, and while only eight persons attended last year’s convention in Boston, it is thought that nearly double that number will represent Montana in the nation’s capital. A side trip to New York will be taken by a num- ber of the delegates after the convention is over. It is expected that many not dele- gates will take advantage of the reduced rates and visit the city, as it is an oppor- tunity not often given the citizens of the extreme northwest. Whoever comes will find Washington’s welcome warm and hearty. A Presentation, A pleasant eurprise was given Mr. Page L. Zimmerman last night by the members of the chorus belonging to the Mount Ver- non M, EB. Church, of which choir he is the leader. Mr. Zimmerman has devoted a great deal of energy in training the Mount Vernon choir, which is among the large ones that comprise the great chorus, and he has also on several occasions been se- lected to lead the rehearsals of some of the chorus sections. At his choir rehearal last night he was presented with a silver service as a fitting testimonial of the es- teem in which he is held by those with whom he has worked so faithfully and well. ——— Six Persons Drowned. Five boys, members of the St. John’s Episcopal Church choir, and the organist, of Charlestown, Mass., were drowned in Lake Massapog, Sharon, Mass., yesterday afternoon. Rev. Jcseph Maxwell, assistant pastor of the church, narrowly escaped drowning in his endeavors to rescue them. ALL READY TO RUN Successful Trial Trip on the New F Street Line. The Equipment and the Cars—Wait- ing Only for Supply of Fender: The F and East Capitol streets electric line of the Metropolitan Raflway Company is ready for opening to the use of the traveling public. A large ‘nuntber of cars are on the ground, and rhore are on the way from the shops in St.Louis, and but for the delay on the part of the manufac- turers in Baltimore sendifig fenders, long since ordered for the cars,! today would be the last that the horse would be seen pro- pelling a Metropolitan car. 1 A test of the new line wa$ made after the horse cars stopped running last night, and everything worked to a.charm, there not being a hitch or delay of any sort, and the officers of the company were delighted with the performance of the first. car. At 1 o'clock this morning a motor car in charge of Engineer A. N. Connett, under whose superintenderce the Metropolitan electric rallway system has been construct- ed, left the Georgetown station, and was run west to and ‘around the Georgetown loop on 36th street; east to 15th street and East Capitol street (the eastern terminus), and back to the Georgetown depot in one hour and twenty minutes. No attempt was made to run on a schedule, but where a good straight stretch of track was found some beautiful bursts of speed were shown, and on East Capitol street a run was made equal to twenty miles an hour. After a little delay, not, however, from any accident at the Georgetown depot, the car was sent by Mr. Connett, in charge of @ motorman, to the car barn on the east side of Lincoln Park, where it was stored to await the opening of the line. There were on the car on the trial trip Mr. Coleman, private secretary of Presi- dent Phillips; Contractor Saxton, who built the road; Assistant Engineers Heindle, Spicknell, Smith and Babendier, and a few others. Equipment and Cars. The power for the operation of the new line will, west of 9th street northwest, be furnished from the Georgetown power house, and east of 9th street from the 4% street power house. The equipment of the line will consist of sixty open and sixty closed cars, each fur- nished with double motors, and forty trail- ers. ‘There are now here and ready for service eight motor cars and thirty trailers, and ten more motor cars are expected to reach Washington in a day or two, and whether the latter arrive by that time or not, the operation of the line by electricity will be begun by the latter part of this week. The Georgetown power house was origin- ally erected and equipped for the purpuse of operating a storage Lattery system of railway, which the management of the Metropolitan a few years ago contemplated using for the propulsicn of their cars. To operate the Connett system it was found that most of the machizery would answer the purpose, and the only additions made were three new electric generators, some new switchboards and @ condensing ap- Paratus. Chief Engineer Connett went to Baltimore at noon today to see the manv- facturers of the fenders heretofore ordered for the cars, as above stated, and will try to have them shipped at once, so that the road may be opened for travel under the new system by tomorrow or next day. The completion of the F and East Cap- itol street line, which also comprises the division from the Capitol to the boundary, fulfills to the fullest extent the promises of Progress stated by President Phillips to be his policy in an interview with a reporter of The Star about two years ago and pub- lished in The Star at that time: Mr. Phil- lips then promised to furniith to the people of Washington at the earlfest ‘practicable tuoment the best system of rapid transit propulsion to be obtained for woney, and it is the opinion of every engineer who has examined the electric system of the Metro- Ppolitan Railway Company that it has now the best system of electrical propulsion for its cars to be found in the world. So evident is this to streét railway mag- nates that, as stated in The Star a few days ago, Chief Engineer Contiett has re- celved an offer to go to Burope and con- etruct a similar system in one of the great cities there.
