Strange PhenOmenOn 1t Sea.
SMOKE WHICH PROBABLY CAME FROM GREAT
FOREST FIRES In LABRADOR

An Ottawa special, October 10, says: The
officers of the government arctic steamer
Alert, which has just returned from an explor.
ing expedition TO Hudson's Bay, report q
strange phenomenon which they experienced
during their recent voyage. The story is told as
on the 2Sth' of August, the compass working
very badly. Leaving there after taking obser-
vations, The vessel proceeded TO Diggs but, on
until the 3Oth. During the night oil the 18th
it became unusually dark. the air being filled
with dense smoke. which smeit like burning
while on the deck Of the steamer the smoke
was SO thick that one could not see his hand
before him. A furious gale was blowing at the
time, and the lead was the only guide. Captain
Gordon. commander Of the expedition, reports
That he is OF the opinion that great fires were
raging In the center Of Labrador, and that that
fact accounted for the dense smoke and heat
which about that time prevailed along the
coast from the Gulf OF ST Lawrence to Cape
Breton.

CITY AND DISTRICT.
THE EXTENSION OF THE CITY.
The Commissioners Gathering Data -
Present In COnx reaa

The District Commissioners will have pre-
pared to send to the Senate at the coming ses-
sion of Congress a report upon, and general
plan for, the extension of streets beyond the
city limits. Several bills were introduced at
the last session making provision in general
way for the extension of the city streets in the
northern suburbs and providing for conformity
with the general plan of the city. None of
these bills became laws but the Senate called
upon the District Commissioners for informa-
ton relative 10 general plan and cost OF the
proposed street extension. No appropriation
was made, however, TO pay the expense of such
an inquiry, and the data Is being collected by
she employees of the engineer office at times
when their services can be spared from their
regular employment Col. Ludlow, the En-
gineer Commissioner, says that strict conform
every case practicable. He thinks IL best, also.

nues OF communication, such the 14th
ana 1th street roads, the Benning' s
them or change their direction would make too
great disturbance. A difficulty met Just at
the Boundary, is the hill or bluff which begins
there, and presents problem as to grade. The
to conform with the present line of 18th street
within the city limits. The 10th street extern
sion, made by the board of public works, con.
forms to the direction of the street, but il has
which Col. Ludlow considers dangerous and
too steep for a city street. The only remedy, he
thinks, is to reduce the grade and then to give
access to the grounds fronting on the street,
q terraced roadway, such as that on the north
side OF Massachusetts avenue, between 14th
and 18th streets. For several years a topu.
graphical survey Of the District has been going
