Mike Hines, formerly Of Washington, and
Higgins were signed by President Soden for

notified O'Rourlte and Klusman that they will

factory work and habits and the latter on

Anxious reader--No, the black tights and

THE DISTRICT GOVERNMENT.

Colonel John NJ. Wilson, in charge of pub
lie buildings and grounds, has requested that
the curbing may be laid and the sidewalk re-
placed on the south side of G street, between
Fourth and Fifth streets, in front Of the north
entrance to the Pension Building.
Petitions to have Private Samuel Wilson OF
the police force promoted to be acting SER
geant were filed with the Commissioners yes
terday by Congressman Compton, Campbell
and Mahoney.
The contract for insuring the District
buildings, school houses, iire-engine houses
and other buildings with their contents, has
been awarded to Simon Wolf at ten cents per
800 on brick buildings and their contents and
twenty-three for frame buildings and their
contents. The contract was made for five
years ut these rates.
RtStation-keeper j. A. Frank of the First

The Proposed Mt. Vernon Railroad.

1t is not thought that legal condemnation of
land within the Mount Vernon farm will be
necessary, as 1t is expected that the whole
matter of the route and terminus of railway
at Mount Vernon will he settled by agree
ment. The managers Of the company desire a
location for their depot which shall be con
venient for visitors. The regents are opposed
TO any railroad invasion which will tend, in
any manner, to disturb the grounds. The cX-
act location Of the Mount Vernon terminus
will probably not be settled until the whole
body Of the regents shall have been consulted
upon the subject.
1t Is not believed that the law which gives
railroad companies fifteen acres for terminus
grounds affects Mount Vernon. 1t is certain
that no attempt win be made to acquire so
much land there. It is thought by some that
owing to the peculiar provisions OF the charter
Of the Mount Vernon Association, by virtue
Of which 1t acquired its ownership of Mount
Vernon the land there cannot be sold, and as
q condemnation for railway purposes carries
with 1t the fee-simplc title, no part of Mount
Vernon can be condemned for railroad pur-
poses.

THE REGATTA CONCLUDED.
The Postponed Races Rowed without a
Hitch


Hitch.
The big clouds in the sky didn't materlallze
yesterday, and the postponed boat-races were
rowed without further trouble. To be sure,
there was some delay in securing boats for
the referee and judges, and when the Dixie
and Cecile had been chartered it was after
O'clock
The first race was for four-oared gigs, which
resulted SO disastrously on Wednesday, with
the aid of the wind. Captain Rappone of the
Potomacs wanted to put substitutes In place
of two Of his men, who were suffering from
the drenching of the day before, but, though
MIR. William b. Curtis of the Spirit Of the
Times telegraphed that the Columbias could
hardly refuse to allow such substitutes, the re-
fusal was irtrle and the Potomac crew, Ii. n.
Elmore, bow; Il. II. Reynolds, stroke, and j.
ii. Doyle, coXswain, pulled over the course
behrf the Columbus, who rowed in their
own time.
The Columbia crew consisted of G. P.
Green, bow; III. M. Woodward, 3; W. q. Carr,
3; james Wade, stroke; ii. ii. Gibson, cox
swain
Eugene johnson of the Columbia Athletic
Club won the junior singles, with Lindgreen
of the Potomacs second. Time, 1909.
Psota Of Cornell College won the senior
singles in 1864. Carney OF the Newark Insti-
tute Club fouled q buoy and broke an oar.
The eight-oared race was the event of the
regatta, but on account of the crippled con-
dition OF the Potomac crew Captain Zappone
wouldn't let them row. The starters were
the Fairmounts and Cresents of Philadelphia
and the Coumbias of this city. The Fair
mounts won, leading the Crcsents by half a
length The Columbias were several lengths
behind. 1ime S:04. The winning crews con-
sisted of Mr.. Brownell, bow; j. Waters, 2; f..
+. Browuel, 3; James Harrison, Al. Mahony,
5; E. Pyfer, 6; j. Smith, Z; j. Snowden, stroke,
and G.. Mitchell, coxswain. The Columbias
were: j. II. Elder, bow; A. A. Snyder, 2; Ba.
sill Duke, 3; Thomas Hyde, A; j. g. Kondrup,
5; l.. c. Reed, 6; Lee Harbin, z; f. A. Mute,
stroke, and w. Howard Gibson, coxswain.
Not starting: The Potomac Boat Club, Wash
ington. Time, S:04.
The prizes were presented to the successful
contestants in the Riggs House parlors at
o'clock last night by Representative S. 5. Cox.
He made happy speech, giving many of his
personal experiences. He said he didn't know
why he had been selected to deliver the prizes
Perhaps 1t was because the Democratic party
had come out against free whisky, and there
fore took deep interest in aquatics. Or per
haps his interest In the Lifc-Saying Service
had caused him to be selected Mr.. Cox con

A NEW HERDIC LINE.
Coaches to BE Run in Opposition to the
Columbia Company.

Coaches to BE Run in Opposition to the
Columbia Company.
The new herdic line will run tomorrow in
opposition to the H-street bobtail cars. This
was decided to-day after the committee, COM
posed of Messrs. d. b. Street, W. NJ. Gibson
and p. r. Benson, had consulted with the
Commissioners about using II street north
east.
The Commissioners met the committee in
their Board room and the conference was
rather short. II was made so by the an
nouncement by the Commissioners that they
had no power TO grant or refuse permission to
run herdics on III street. "This is not mat
ter for us to consider" said Engineer Com
missioner Raymond.
od''sltfwould be good thing if we could pro-
tect some of our Streets" said Mr.. Webb.
"We have only power to regulate the move
fisht or cars and other vehicles said he, $50
far as the police regulations affect them. II
they run too fast or obstruct the streets, we
can regulate that, but as to the manner of re-
ceiving fares or transfers we have nothing to
do"
Mr. Street drew forth list of grievances of
the people of his section against the Columbia
road, but Major Raymond told him he need
not read them, as the Commissioners had
nothing to do with this part of the subject.
"Gentlemen, we have nothing to do with
this petition,n said Commissioner Wheatley.
$50 and take your herdics wherever you
please. The Commissioners can't stop you
Superintendent Eberly Of the Herdic Com
pany was on the premises, anxiously awaiting
the result of the conference. He was much
pleased when he learned how the conference
had ended.
"We are going to put on eighteen or twenty
coaches tomorrow morning at 6 o'clock, sale
he to a CRITIC reporter.

EXTENDING TIN STREETS.
Tho Commissioners .Sem Their Bill :
the Senate District Committee.

Tho Commissioners .Sem Their Bill TO
the Senate District Committee.
Tho Commissioners this morning
transmitted to the Senltc District Com
mittee their revised bill for the extern
sion of the city streets Into the county,
and heretofore printed n The CRITIC.
The letter accompanying the bill is as
follows
In compliance with tle request OF the
Senate Committee on The district OF Colum-
bia Of the 27th ultimo the commissioners of
the District of Columbia have the honor to
return herewith Senate III No. 302S, with
such notifications rs they pnsider desirable.
The bill as thus modified caves the plan for
the street extension contemplated and all
proceedings for carrying sud- plan into effect,
in the hands of the Commissioners of the Dis
trict Of Columbia instead pf creating new
commission for these purpdes, and IL appro-
PIRATES $4,000 for the necessary expenses con
nected herewith Until ileilnite plan for
the work proposed has beenadopted, II is i'm
possible to make an accurate estimate of the
cost of Carrying out the provisions Of this bill.
The benefits TO the sectionas awhole would
go far to offset all damages, but IN some cases
small holdings and Improvements would be
much damaged.
The Commissioners are o, the opinion that
$1,000,000 is n reasonable approximate esti-
HnUJc Ol IuB amount neCe6dTI 10 curry bue
measure into execution.
AS the bill provides that lalf the expense is
to be assessed upon the poperty benefited,
the expense to the Districtof Columbia and
General Government will approximate $780,
600 respectively.
In conclusion they beg leave to say that
they consider this bill as one of the most i'm
portant ever referred to them for considera-
tion. The condition of affairs In the section
referred TO Is highly unsatisfactory. There is
great uncertainty regarding the permanency
of existing streets, and IN consequence cloud
rests upon property locatedin this section.
Moreover important engineering questions
cannot be intelligontly decided until the loca-
tion of the streets is definitely determined.
Thus proper systems of sewerage, water sup
ply, street improvements. gas and electrical
service cannot be devised, although the sec
tion is being rapidly built up and the people
demand such facilities. The Commissioners
are of the opinion that the passage of this bill
would be very great benefit to the District.
