Local Tmnrovements

We have from time TO time spoken of
the spirit of improvement and enterprise
apparent in our neighboring towns and
the District generally. II is greater pleas
nre, howeVer,.to speak Of improvement in
our midst, more especially as il is The first
for years. Or. J. n. LAwaHNcE is erecting,
on the west side of the public square, a
commodioas building for mercantile pur.
poses. It will be completed in short
time. Will not our citizens generally go
to work and improve their buildings aud
groands3 A very small outlay of capital,
with somo labor and industry, would add
much to the comfort, convenience and ap-
pearapce of the place. ~
By.the-way, what has become of the new
hotel enterprises Thai we are greatly in
need of such a building none will deny.
WHO will put the ball in motion again!

A fre occurred on Saturday evening, about
ciSck, In the large warehouse the south side
OF water street, occupied by Mr.. Henry Blunt
as whiskey rectifying establishment. The
Dulldng, together with about 800 barrels of whis-
key, lot of bacon, the whole of MIR. IS rectify-
my apparatus and two valuable outfits for two
nShlng landings, owned by Mr.. James Hecker.
was consumed, The fire was purely the result
OF accident, and caused by the porter, a colored
man, accidentally letting a lighted candle fall
into a vat containing an infammable liquid.
Inc house belongs to ID. & Claggett, of Wash
ington county, Md. and was insured in the North
American Office, Philadelphia in the sum of
S2,WO or -, 500 which in either case will hardly
be sufficient to cover the loss. Mr.. Blunt's loss
will reach about 81, 900, and that of MT. Hecker
to not less than 81 900. neither of whom were in
sured. Mr.. Joseph Waters, who occupies the
adjoining warehouse, met with some loss also.
as did Mr.. j. J. Bogue in the breaking down of
an extensive shed by the falling of the east wall
of the burning building.
The Vigilant fire eng inc was speedily on the
ground, in the possession of the newly formed
company, and worked well, as did also some Of
the companies from your city. The entire fire
department of your city, we believe, was on the
ground, and at one time serious apprehensions Of
a riot were entertained. We were pleased to see,
however, that the membership of nearly all the
companies gave evidence, by their department, of
a wish to render us service, and not to disgrace
our streets by those acts of rowdyism which too
often occur-fremen's fights.
Our river wharves this morning present rather
a gloomy aspect. We have rarely IL ever seen so
fewarrivals and so little doing along them at this
season of the year. At the coal docks there are
several large vessels awaiting car9oes.
Another steam tug, the Spy" made her ap-
pearance at our wharves on Saturday.
The only arrivals since last are the schrs
Northumberland, with coal to Myers & Son, and
Cleopatra, with lumber to LibbeY & Son.
The flour market is somewhat unsettled, and
prices continue gradually to advance-small sales
after our report of Saturday closed, at IS 62 for
extra canal; some holders are asking 1915. The
wheat market is also unsettled and advancing

GYPsiEs.-A number Of persons who are said
to be OF the regular Gypsey stock, but who call
themselves horse traders, have arrived In the vi
cinity Of Washington, and pitched their tents on
the northern suburbs of the city. One Of the
gang, who gave his name as David Nelson, got
drunk on Saturday; he was taken before Justice
Dom, and dealt with as the law directs. He was
subsequently arrested by Police Oficer Watson,
on suspicion of horse stealing, and taken to the
central guard house, where he remnincd until the
morning, when he was examined and dismissed.
RoBBINe MARkErKRs.-Saturday officer Suit

James Cropsey, is accused of stealing a large
quantity Of potatoes from the dealers in the Cen
tire Market. The name of Cropsey is familiar to
the police. Justice Smith committed him for
trial at Court.
Jim Cropsey, the other. Is swift of foot and
when the arrest OF his brother was made he called
his heels into requisition, and has not since been
heard of
WHIskEY CHEAP.-Saturday night, after the
fire in Georgetown, drunken men were to be met
at short intervals along the streets leading to
6eOrgetown. 1t was remarkable that they were
the most orderly drunken men ever seen in this
CITY, tue only inconvenience to persons on the
f"otwalks being the worm fence tracks they made
winch rendered IL difficult to dodge them 1t was
suggested that very little fighting whiskey was
