STREET SWEEPING SUNDAY NIGHTS.
Complaints have been made to the District Com
miSsioners that the contractor for street sweeping
persists in the sweeping OF Pennsylvania avenue
Sunday nights instead OF Saturday nights, con-
trary to the expires; terms OF his contract, which
states that 1t must be swept ''every night in the
week, Sundays excepted" 1t is cOntended that
the interests of the public demand that the con-
tract should be literally carried out in this case,
the Accommodations OF dirt are greatest on Satur-
days, and under the practice OF the contractor
such accumulations now have TO lay upon the
avenue all ~ Sunday. when it is most desirable
to have the avenue clear, and that the dirt does
not get removed, In fact, until Monday morn
