N.W., Js27-75d Between H and I sts, ol > Clean the Sidewalks. To the Editor of The Evening Star: I have been greatly enjoying your city since I have been here, but I occasionally encounter some anomalies. I am charmed to see the garbage corps at work scraping and brushing the filth from the streets, but I can’t understand why they neglect the pavements where the real filth occurs. Iam from the country, and waste from animais is not particularly repulsive to me. At least it is not dangerous to health. The spit-bespattered pavements are, however, truly disgusting. But I suppose that it is a puzzle to your health board how to pre- vent it. I have known of horses that were taught cleanly habits, but I do not sup- pose that there are many animals like that with intelligence enough to learn. It seems to me, however, that the nobler animal could be taught. Would it be possi- ble to train them to go to the curb and spit into the surface drain? Or could they be taught to spit into a handkerchief or its equivalent and take it home and burn it? How would it do, meanwhile, for cer- tain members of the garbage corps to keep upon the sidewalk and whenever they saw such filth voided to wipe it up with a mop saturated with some efficient disinfecting fluid? It is possible that this subject has not received sufficient thought or attention. The filth in the street is not immediately dangerous, while that upon the pavaments is nearly always so. If you will notice, there are often evidences of muco pus, and even when the discharges are tebacco- stained 30 that you carnot see, they may be charged with disease germs. The void- ings of the tobacco chewer are, because of the quantity, much more apt to be taken up by the skirts of women. The danger is increased, apparently, when we remember that the skirts of the poorer class of wo- men are most apt to be contaminated, and when they go home, these are hung up in a close atmosphere and in a crowded apart- ment, where they distribute these germs to be inhaled by persons least able to re- sist infection. When it is understood that the vilest and most incurable diseases may be 80 conveyed, don’t you think it is time to interfere? E. TRACY BISHOP. January 26, 1897. ee McComas’ Election Popular. President Lawrence B. Kemp of the Commercial and Farmers’ National Bank of Baltimore was in Washington today, and in conversation with a Star reporter at the Arlington Hotel, where he was stop- ping, voiced the general gratification felt LOCAL NAVAL MILITIA ae Bill to Organi alt Favorably Reported inthe ‘House. LIMITED 10: FOUR COMPANIES Annual Repotts "of Street Rail- ways. OTHER DISTRICT MATTERS “The House committee on naval affairs has favorably reported the bill to organ- ize @ naval reserve battalion in the District of Columbia. The bill provides that in addition to the companies of volunteer militia now authorized in the District of Columbia there may be organized not more than four companies of naval militia. which shall constitute a battalion to be known as the naval battalion of the Na- tional Guard of the District of Columbia. The officers of the naval battalion shall consist of one commander and a staff, to consist of one executive officer with the rank of lieutenant commander, one navi- gating officer with the rank cf lieutenant; one signal, ordnance and> equipment officer with the rank of lieutenant; one chief engineer, one pdymaster and one sur- geon, each with the relative rank of lieu- tenant. Each company shall consist of one lieu- tenant, one lieutenant junior grade, two ensigns and not less than sixty nor more than one hundred petty officers and enlist- ed men. . In all matters not otherwise specially provided for the provisions of law which provided for the organization of the militia of the District of Columbia shall apply to the naval battalion. General routine of duty discipline and exercises of the naval bat- talion and parts thereof shall conform with the laws, customs and usages of the navy as far as the same may apply, and where they do not apply then such routine of duty, discipline and exercises shall con- form to the laws governing the volunteer forces of the District of Columbia. The James Creek Cannl Nuisance. Senator Kyle laid before the Senate today a letter written by Health Officer Wood- vard in regard to James Creek canal. Dr. Woodward quotes from letters written by fermer health officers of the District of Columbia, and says: “From the foregoing it will be seen that the insanitary condition of the James Creek canal has long been recognized, and that recommendations have been made fon its Improvement. If such a nuisance had existed upon private property its abate- ment would have Leen secured years ago, but in view of the fact that the govern- ment alone has been responsible for its ecntinuance no action could be taken by this department to bring about that end other than recommendations to that effect. “Thic canal is, as has been set forth, sim- ply an open sewer.containing a mass of filth moving in.a sluggish current and subject to the action of the tides. Its con- tents decompose, and give off offensive gases which constitute a nuisance whether viewed from the standpoint of comfort or from that of health. The extent of its in- fluence cannot he definitely determined by lare statistics as_to death rate, etc., as its depressing jeffect upon the general health, which cannot be thus determined, is probably considerable. In event, how- ever, of an outbreak of iow fever its presence would be a:serious menace to the very lives of the residents of that section of the city.” Local way Reports. The Vice President today laid before the Senate annual reports of the George- town and Tenleytown railway and of the Washington and’Gredt Falls Ratlway Com- pany. Eee ae ete ee The total receipts of the Georgetown and Tenleytown Railway* Company are shown 36. A detailed account of re- ceipts and expenditures follow: Receipts-Cash on hand January 1, 18% 11; bills and accounts payable, $6,08: rebate on accounts counts collected, $2,1 , bonus, $100; 5 tickets, $1 cash fares, $4,1 transfer sales, $3,945.80; freights, $359.62; commutation tickets, $183; United States mail, $169.21; advertising, $125; excursion: $85.08; sale of old material, ‘$270. receipts, $38,536.15.

During the year 581,429 passen- gers were carried. The annual revort of the Washington and Great Falls Electric Railway Company shows that during hte year 911,885 passen- gers were carried. The total receipts amounted to $50,100.49, including $366.75 cash on hand January 1, 1897. Of this amount $10,200 was from a sale of bonds. Use of Telegraph Conduits. The Senate today adopted a resclution calling upon the Commissioners of the Dis- trict of Columbia to report to the Senate whether telegraph conduits are being used for electric ghting cable purposes in the District of Columbia, and whether lighting wires are being run from such conduits without provision of law. To Pay for the Bronze Doors. The House committee on claims has au- thorized a favorable report on the bill di- recting the issue of a check in leu of a lost check drawn by Bernard R. Green in favor of Frederick MacMonnies. ‘The check was for $15,000, being in part payment under a contract to-design and furnish bronze doors for the building of the Library of Congress at Washington, was mailed by Bernard R. Green, superintend- ent of the building, to Frederick MacMon- nies, in Paris, France, and was lost in transmission through the mail: Proposed Park. Mr. Catchings has introduced a bill in the House authorizing the Secretary of the Interior to purghase the tract of land known as Wileon Park, Congress Heights, containing one hundred acres of land, sit- uate in the District of Columbia, to be used as a public-park, and the sum of $350,- 000 is appropriated: for the purchase. g the Sewer System.

Mr. F. L. Siddons; secretary of the Civil Service Reform Association, has sent to the Sehate resolutions adopted, by the associa- tion at a meeting held here on the 21st instant. “For the pi ‘To Clear District Land Titles. the United States, the uumbers of the squares in which such lots are located, the Gate of sale, the names of purchasers and the amounts receive‘. The object of this resolution is to make a beginning of the work’ of clearing up the title to a large amount of property in the District of Columbia, which is under clouds of records, portions of which are constant- ly being brought to the attention of the District committees of Congress by own- ers who want quit claims given by the governmert. Some time ago the Senate, by resolution, called on the Attorney General to furnish a list of lots in the District of Columbia the title to which was in the United States. The Attorney General replied that much laborious werk would have to be done in Searching the records at Annapolis and elsewhere before < lst of such prezerty could be prepared with any degree of ac- curacy, as the records in the District of Columbia were not regarded as complete. The resolution adopted by the Senate today merely calls for a list of property, the title to which, as shown by the records in the istic of Columbia, is in the United ztes. A Commission to Be Created. When this list of property is secured, it is understood to be the purpose of the com- mittee on the District of Columbia to pro- ceed to have a commission appointed to take up this matter of defective titles, and to make recommendations for settling such cases, taking into consideration any rights the government may have in the property in question and the equities of present hold- ers of the same. Salary of the City Postmaster. Mr. Chandler of the committee on post offices and post reads today made a favor- able report in the Senate on Senate bill N17, fixing the salary of the postmaster of the city of Waskirgtcn, D.C., at $6.000 per annum from July 1, 1898. The report is accompanied by a letter from the Postma: ter General recommending that the sala of the postmaster be increased to ‘at least $6,000." ‘The Postmaster General says “In report of the Posimaster General for the fiscal year ended June peared a tabulated statement showing the registry business of the Washington ctty post office as ranking third the United States. Chicago, the second city in the United States in point of gross ri handled 3,272,677 packages aurifig the cal year, and Washington, D. C., 2 packages. The value cf the governmental business passing through the Washingt city registry division amounted to $uv' 250,862.82. In addition commercial pieces to the value of several! million dollars were also handled. He also shows that in the post office of this city are employed 303 cierks, dcuble the number empioyed at either Buffalo, N. Y., Pittsburg, Pa., or Cleveland, Oh all of which offices pay $6,000 per annui a a FOR BEATING HIS WiFE. William Conley Convicted in Police Court Today. William L. Conley, a well-known archi- tect, was this afternoon convicted before Judge Scott of beating his wife, Mrs. Eleanor R. Corley. Sentence was suspend- ed, but Judge Scott notified Conley if he does not during the next six months keep away from his wife and children the court will punish him to the full extent of the law. Mrs. Conley testified that during the last three or four years her husband had beaten her a number of times, but that she made no complaint to the authorities, because she had too much pride to let the pubiic know about her domestic troubles. Last week, however, she said, her hus- band one day returned to their home, No. 1919 Pennsylvenia avenue northwest, in an intoxicated condition and struck her in the face, knocking her down, after which he in other ways maltreated ker. She said nothing about this to any one outside the house. Last Saturday night, she testified, Con- ley was again intoxicated, and when she heard him enter the hous> she hid herself in a room and locked the door. Her hus- band broke the door open, and, as she be- lieved he was about to attack her, she 2luded him and endeavored to secure refuge in the parlor. Conley pursued her, and broke open that door also. She then escaped from him by a back window, but without proper clothing, and was obliged to accept the protection of Mrs. Della Mathy for the remainder cf the night. Mrs. Conley says she is troubled with heart disease, and is unable to stand her husband's brutal treatment any longer. Conley, who was called to the stand, did rot deny what his wife had said, bu claimed that h3 was not aware that he had acted as charged. Lawyer Sillers, who appeared as counsel for Conley, asked mercy for his client for the sake of the three littl> children of the corple, and Judge Scott finally took the action stated. - —_>—_ Result of an Altercation. Bryan McDonald, Charles Shelton and Thomas E. McCauley’ were arrested this morning by Police Court Officer Flynn. The accused were engaged in a case in court and after leaving the building got into an altercation. McDonald and Shel- ton attacked McCauley, but the latter knocked them both down. All three were lccked up, but later each deposited col- lateral and was released. —-+——- Explain Amended Highway Act. Commissioners Wight and Black attended a meeting of the Senate District committee this afternoon for the purpose of explain- ing to the committee the proposed meas- ures to amend the highway extension act of March 2, 1893. Commissioner Ross was unable to attend because of illness. ———— Proposed New Apartment House. A building permit was issued today to Geo. N. Saegmuller to build a four-story and cellar brick apartment house at Nos. 128 and 130 Maryland avenue southwest, to hold eight families and to be 49 feet front and 100 feet deep. The building is to cost $25,000, and the architect is A. Goenner. Many a hardworking man an each day’s toil, is pulling a “tug of war” with death for an autagonist. They fail to take proper care of their health. When they suffer from indigestion ora slight bilious attack they “wear it out.”” After a while these disorders wear out the reckless jaee or tre 2 and the result is consumption, malaria, rheumatism, blood oe skin disease.
