HALF STREET YESTERDAY,
The pavement in mont Of the Columbia
buildings yesterday was crowded to Its utmost
capacity by the laboFers Of the Board Of Public
Works, but the Commissioners decided that II
was impossible 70 open any new rolls.
The members Of the Commission now In the
city made a tour Of inspection, and decided
that for the present q was not conducive TO the
public interest 10 employ mere clerks.
Mr.. Joseph Hodgson, attendant Of the WGsh-
ington asylum, had an Interview with the Com
missiOoers fOr the purpose Of consultation
that the Office Of physicians 10 the poor having
been aboliehed, the duties Of his Office would
naturally be increased. Il was the purpose 20
refer ahcases where application for medical at
teadance ls required By the poor TO the asylum.
Sach cases as heretofore have beon under the
physicians TO the poor Will In the future be re-
ported 20 Major Richards, who will ascertain
through bis police force a. 70 the necessities OF
each respective case, and when found merltori-
Gus send them 70 the secretary Of the oommis-
sion, who viii give tickets Of admission 10 the
asylum. or orders for medicine.

the sanitary police n be phyeicians In good

given them by the law Of Congress. II they

THE MONEY pIsBURsED BY THE TREAS.
URER OF THE BOARD,


Police headquarters yesterday presented q
very animated appearances, Il being payday for
the force, and Mr.. H. N. Sweeney, treasurer
Of the Board Of Police Commissioners, was
engaged IN performing that pleasant duty.
The men received, however, only $50, the
amount due them from the United States
Government; but Il Is expected that they will
be paid the full amount due them by the Dis
trict Fourteen months this week, Mr.. Sweeney
having received assurances from the Comnis-
sioners 20 that effect. II has been some time
since the pay for the force has been disbursed
BY the treasurer Of the board, but Congress, IN
apprOpriating money for this purpose ct its last
session, msde the money payable through the
treasurer Of the Board Of Police Commission
ers, instead Of through the Attorney Generals
office, as was the case last year. Consequent
" IN the future the monthly payments VIII be
made from the treasurer's Office at Police head
