A NEW SYSTEM PROPOSED
or Keeping District Accounts With
Plumbers for Street Repairs.


The present system Of keeping the District
accounts with plumbers who take up pave
ments to make connections of water and gas
pipes, &C., is unsatisfactory, as settlement OF
such accounts cannot be made until the
final repairing of the cut in the pavement
is made. This is often delayed several months,
owing to the inability Of the contractor for
minor street repairs to get at various points in
the city where such repairs are to be made ex-
cept at long intervals. Several days ago Su-
perintendent Of Streets Moss, in a letter to
Capt. Symons, recommended q new system, as
follows:
Each plumber, on making his first applica-
uon Tor q permit to cut any paved roadway or
sidewalk, shall deposit the sum Of S25 with the
ohcaal designated by the Commissioners, and
ne shall be required to keep this amount to his
credit whenever called upon to do so. The
ioiiowing rate per square foot of cutting shall
be charged: ALI street pavements, 40 cents;
granite block pavement, is cents and 8 cents
ior each granite block; asphalt block pavement,
10 cents and lilo cents for each asphalt block:
cobble pavement, cents; brick sidewalk pave
ment, cents and l.069 cents for each brick.
Other sidewalk pavements to be determined
hereafter"
The matter was referred to the Master Plumb.
ers' association. They approved the plan of
Mr.. Moss in general, substituting for the eos TO
be deposited ESQ.
Capt. 6ymons in letter to the Commission
ers, approved the action of the master plumb
ers, and the new system viii go into vogue upon
Its approval by the Commissioner.

Is the Garbage Man On Vacation?

To the Editor of THE EVENING STAB:
Where Is the garbage man? II he is taking
q summer vacation please ascertain the post
Office address of his deputy and inform the
denizens Of Pierce place northwest thereof, so
that deputation may be sent to him with
petition praying for the removal of their gar
bage.
His employees state that they come around
three times week, but with the most careful
watching they have been seen only twice
week. When they do come they sneak through
the alley as though they wereashamed of their
calling, or else they rush past as if they were
IN hurry TO attend prize fight or a funeral,
scattering more slop than they gather.
Here Is hrst-rate opportunity for the civil
service commission to cover itself with indy

A two-story frame dwelling here, owned by
Capt. A. \. Lawrence of Washington and oc-
eupied by the families of Messrs. Peter Graves
and John Clements, took fire this morning aud
in a short time was burned to the ground The
IRE originated in the kitchen, but quickly COM
Tunicated itself to the main building, with
which it was connected. Almost any organ
lied effort would have saved the building
when the fire Was first discovered but there is no
tire department here, and the necessary saving
apparatus was not on hand Neighboring
buildings were saved by keeping them
drenched with water. Nearly all the house,
hold effects were saved. The house was in
sured IN the Montgomery mutual company.
The heavy and prolonged rains of late here
have wrought irreparable damage to the wheat
crops IN tine southern Maryland peninsula The
majority OF them are still in the field, and in
many cases the shocks have sprouted and look
as green as new cut grass. The loss in such
cases Is absolute. 1t has rained here for the
Last nine consecutive days. L.F.

THE SEWER PIPE Brps.


The difficulty between the Commissioners
and the Potomac Terra Gotta company has been
referred to in The STAR Yesterday. here
tofore stated, bids were again opened for fur
nshing the District with sewer pipe. 1t will be
recollected that during the last month the Po-
tomac Terra Gotta company secureda perpetual
injunction restraining the Commissioners from
entering into contract for sewer pipe under the
bids received on the 22d of June last. Yes
terday but three firms submitted proposals
for furnishing the material asked for. The
prices asked are a considerable advance over
those submitted on the 22d Of June. Il
is thought at the District buildings that
the firms believing that the Commission
ers were powerless to take advantage Of the
lower prices submitted in June, have thus
taken advantage of the situation and made
their bids higher. just what will be done in
the matter has not yet been determined by the
Commissioners, but il is undertood that they
will carefully investigate the whole transaction
and probably reject all Of yesterdays bids.
FIRES IN July.
The report Of the chief of the fire department
for the month Of July shows that during that
period there were seven alarms of fire, an in
crease Of one over the preceding month and a
decrease Of one over the corresponding month

covered by an insurance of 81, 488 against a
loss of $3.50, insurance S120 for the preceding
month, and loss of a. 155, insurance s. $50, for
the corresponding month of the preceding
year.
