More Desirable Than Repairing the Present One. CANNOT USE D STREET ENGINE HOUSE Advantage of Obtaining Site on the River Front. AN OUT-OF-WAY PLACE BEST ‘The discovery that the law will not per- mit the Commissioners to utilize the en- gine house on D street between 12th and 13th streets for morgue purposes has raised the question of the best use to which the morgue appropriation, proposed by the Sen- ate, can be put, if it is retained in the Dis- trict appropriations bill. The Senate amendment concerning the morgue now under consideration in confer- ence reads as follows: “For morgue keeper, nine hundred dol- jars; assistant morgue keeper, two hundred and fifty doliars, and for repairs, equip- ment, fuel and gas for the morgue, one thousand and forty dollars; in all two thousand one hundred and ninety dollars.” It appeared from a recent statement of the Commissioners that there was involved in this item not merely the repair and mod- ernizing of the morgue as proposed by the words of the amendment, but its intended removal from the present site to that of the engine house on D street, looking out on Pennsylvania avenue, and adjacent to the new city post office and P. O. D. building, and the ousting of the chemical engine new located there. Everybody was in favor of a new und modern morgue in place of the present abomination, but this universal approval cid not contemplate the removal and loca- tion of the morgue in a conspicuous por- uon of the city, at the doors of a great Fublic department and in plain view from the capital's historic avenue. There at once sprang up, as already stated in The Star. a vigorous cpposition on the part of tne business and hotel men on the avenue in that vicinity, strengthened recently by the Postmaster General, who protested against the removal of the chemical en- gine, which had proved so valuable a pro- tection against fire in the past, and the location under their noses of the city’s re- ceptable for the dead. They urged that they should not be deprived of an institu- tion which saves property and increases its value in order that there might be sub- stituted for it an institution which attaches @ stigma to the neighborhood and inevita- bly decreases property values. They con- tended that there was no public necessily for the change and that the Pennsylvania avenue location was absolutely unsuitable for a morgue. Law Regarding the Engine House. While their protest was under considera- ticn by the Commissioners the law was discovered which prevented the use of the D street engine -house except for the pur- pose of the city fire department. The act is dated February 18, 1867, and reads as follows: “That the right to have, use and occupy all the several buildings, with their ap- purtenances, known as the Union, Frank- lin, Columbia and Anacostia engine houses be, and is hereby, granted to the city of Washington in the District of Columbia, said possession and occupation to continue so long as used for the purposes of the fire department and at the pleasure of the Cengress of the United States; provided, that said use and occupancy of the Co- lumbia engine house shall not in any way interfere wita the possession and occu- pancy by the Columbia Fire Company of the rooms now used as library rooms in said building.” The Franklin engine house referred to in this act of Congress is what is known as the D street engine house. This house was first occupied by the Franklin engine cempany. and then by engine company No. 2, when that company formally succeeded the Franklin as a part of the District fire department. When the new house for No. 2 company was built and occupied several years ago the chemical company, No. 1, which until then had shared the house of truck C, 14th street and Ohio avenue, was located in the D street house, and there it has since remained. Hence unless the Dis- trict authorities obtain express authority from Congress to convert the D street house into a morgue it cannot be done. It was suggested at ths District building that the Commissioners might make appli- cation to the conference committee to pro- vide the legislation necessary to authorize this removal. But those who obj2cted to the location of the morgue on D street vig- crously protested that this ccurse would b> unfair, that legislation upon an important public question, serfously affecting their in- terests, ought not to be propos2d for the first time in conference committee and be sprung upon Congress and the community without any opportunity for careful consid eration. It is believed that the Commis- sioners do not int2nd to take this course. Improving the Present Morgue. Of the two remaining propositions con- cerning the morgue the first is the use of the proposed appropriation for improving the present morgue, reducing to a minimum the nuisance resulting from ft. It is argued that the natural place of expending an ap- propriation In its terms for the repair of che morgue would be at the morgue as it row exists; that there is room on the lot now occupizd for the enlargement of the morgue, and that an additional story could be built at small expense; and that the modernizing of the morgue in equipment would be a positive blessing to the people of that locality, who have becom? accus- tomed to the morgue in {ts present stench- emitting condition, whereas its location in any other frequented section would be viewed as a curs?, no matter what improve- ments in its operation might have been ac- complished. The lot on which the sixth po- lice precinct stands, in the rear of which is located the present so-called morgu>, is about forty feet wide, and runs back to a large alley or vacant lot, through which the streets in the rear are reached. In the r2ar of this lot Is erected the brick stable used for stabling the horses used by the patrol vagon. This building is about thirty by twenty f2et, and between it and the cell pbuilding of the police station is the one- story brick building used as a morgus. This latter building is about twenty by twelve feet, and between ft and the rear of the station house there is a wagon shed about twenty-five fzet in length. It is contended that should the Commissioners desire to erect on this lot a well-equipped, modern morgue they would have ample room for so doing. A Morgue on the River Front. Commissioner Wight and the residents of the section in which the morgue !s located object strongly to its retention there, and the proposition of erecting a new morgue somewhere on the river front has perhaps the most werful support of the various plans. It is pointed out that according to the precedents morgues are put in out-of- the-way places; that the dead-house, which is sometimes a pest-house, is not exposed on or near a city’s great thoroughfares; that a central conveniently accessible loca- tion is not absolutely necessary as in the case of a hospital, there being no occasion for hurry in_ carrying tenants to the morgue; and that a large percentage of the occupants of the morgue are persons dfowned, and these would be conveyed to a morgue at the river's edge without any carting through the city. The District con- trols several wharf properties at the river front, and as a result of the it now pend- ing before the U. 8. Supreme Court expects that the United States will before long con- trol the entire frontage. The District offi- elals have been examining into the avatia- bility of river sites, and the results are sat- isfactory. A building about 20 by 30 feet is proposed, with heating apparatus, etc., in the cellar, receptacles for bodies and a room for making autopsies and the neces- sary accommodations on the first floor, and @ second floor to be used for holding in- avests. It is estimated that such a build- ing would cost about $6,000.

Battery M left Fort Slocum yesterday morning at 7 o'clock and went by railroad SUMMER BR Excellent Attractions for Its Annual Concert at the Columbia. The Damrosch Society's annual concert at the Columbia Theater May 4 cannot fail to please lovers of good music. With com- mendable enterprise this organization has sought to supplement its own good work by adding to its program talent whose ex- cellence is beyond question. The Jeanne Franko Trio has met with cordial receptions wherever it has appear- ed, and it will be heard here in Beethoven's op. 97 (the andante cantabile and scherzo movements) and in two numbers by Stern- berg. Miss Franko is an accomplished violinist and has been the recipient of the most flattering notices. She will be heard in a fantasie caprice by Vieuxtemps, under whom she studied.
