low. who told them as he told q STAR reporter yes
teruay that the Commissioners did not deem that
at the present time there was any public demand
for extending streets through LeDroft park, but
matters OF improvements In the park unless the
thof0ughfares there were made public.
The committee said that they would prefer not
to have any improvements at public expense rather
than relinquish their privacy. Mr.. smith sug.
gested that cwarftown, adjoining the park on the
north, might be bought by the District government
ana used Tor park purposes in connection with the
ground already owned by the government In that
neighborhOOd.

Mr.: Prince said The committee had nothing to
do with that; that the matter by passing through
dozen peoples mouths might have been exag-
gerated.
The committee in reply to Col. Ludiow's ques-
considered as the real estate speculatOrS who de-
manded the removal of the fence.
Col. Ludlow said there had been no demand for
the removal OF the fence; it was simply condi-
ton the Commissioners were compelled to make
as preliminary to considering the park streets
as part OF the city plan. The committee de.
parted satisfied that the Commissioners would
take no steps towards removing the fence at pres
ent as they did no. consider that there was a
public demand for such removal.
The proposed extension Of Rhode Island avenue
will pass through the southeast corner OF LeDroit
park, but to this plan 10 objection has been made
by the property-owners there. Some owners In
the park were opposed to the extension OF North
Capitol street. This opposition, il is said, arose
from the fact that 1t was believed that TO have a
new section opened east OF the park and laid out
with wide and straight Streets in accordance with
the city plan might be detrimental to the inter-
ests OF the park. 1t is probable that the Commits
sloners Will consider means OF perfectfng the sew
erage OF the park, whether the fence is taken
down or not. Col. Ludlow, in speaking OF the
fence controversy to-day, said that it was con-
troversy among the owners entirely and not be-
tween them and the Commissioners.
