Red Fog and Red Rain.

The new Johnston line steamer Queensmore
Capt. Trenery, arrived in Baltimore yesterday
morning from London, via Boston, ON her first
trip to this side. The steamer arrived several
days late at Boston, having passed through ter.
rible weather on the voyage. Capt. Trenery
reports that he encountered a shower Of red
ram off the Banks of Newfoundland He was
startled when his attention was called to it by
one OF his officers, but cannot as yet account
Tor 1t. After the shower. which lasted but a
short time, the weather grew extremely cold
As soon as it frightened up the red rain dried
like blood all over the decks and sails, almost
dyeing them light carmine hue. 1t could be
rubbed off like dust. The story of the strange
colored rain Is confirmed by report given by
Capt. Inch of the steamer Rossmore of the
same line. While Capt. Inch did not run
through red rain he reports that he sighted
large quantities Of red ice floating ON the
waves, which was undoubtedly colored by the
rain or whatever it may have been. Several
natural philosophers in shipping circles say
that the fogs for the past few weeks on the At
lantic have been so low and dense that the
heavy deposits of red from the iron ore shores
may have possibly been carried up and after
ward dropped toward the ocean,

DISTRICT GOVERNMENT.

THE ANAcosTIA AND POTOMAC RAILROAD.
The Commissioners have reported on the
bill recently submitted to them to allow the
Anacostia and Potomac river railroad to run q
track over 18th street from NJ to G south. The
charter Of the railroad at present gives them
the right to run these tracks over 7th
street between the same two streets.
Capt Rossell in his recommendation calls at
tention to the fact that the width OF 18th street
between the curbing is much greater than that
of 18th street and the district to be ac-
commodated by the railroad lies nearer
to 18th than 18th street. He recommends
that the Commissioners make a favorable
report to the committee. protest from Mr..
Geo. Watson against the granting of this
privilege has been forwarded with the bill.
His reasons seem to be particularly that the
accommodations given by the Anacostia and
Potomac river railroad are inferior. Can't
Rossell says that he does not believe there will
be any objection from the citizens to the
passage of this bill. The bill also ex-
tends the time Of completion of the tracks
one year after its passage He says
he sees no objection to this. He suggests that
the charter heretofore granted to lay tracks
from to NJ on 9TH street be repealed as this
line on 18th street will take its place.

10 the Edltor OF HE EVENING STAR:
In the solemn presence Of the tragic dead
whom we most sincerely mourn our hearts in
unstinted sympathy go out to the suffering and
grief-stricken survivors Of the appalling ca
lamity that befell our city, our cabinet and our
country yesterday morning. Shall this uni
versal feeling of shock, sympathy and sorrow
be as evanescent as the morning mist or shall
it teach lessons for the living which may lead
to the avoidance of such horrors and to the
protection from them of our wives, our daugh-
tiers, our households? One sordid wretch who
built crumbling, mountain high flats in New
York out Of straw-and-sand brick was sent to
the penitentiary-a richly deserved punish
ment Is the builder who sneaks in cheap
John iues throughout our homes less guilty of
manslaughter when deaths result therefrom
than was the New York convict? Flues are
concealed and may be permanent menace to
our lives without manifesting their dangerous
nature, hence the crime of their unsafe con-
struction Is even greater than himsy construc-
ton visible to the eye. In the presence of SO
many CONGREGATIONS from defective fiues' we
have come to regard the defective hue'' as a
necessary evil. II Gen. Tracys horrifying dis
aster Is the result of defective fue" should
not a searching inquiry be made that will lead
to the arrest and condign punishment of the
builder of that life-destroylng fue? Moreover,
this shocking calamity should teach everybody,
especially the rich who live in tall houses. to
open the windows and close the doors of their
sleeping apartments at night. And why should
not the building regulations require fire
escapes, on the rear walls for that matter to be
erected to every dwelling of more than two
stories! In the calamities of the past and pres
ent we should learn wholesome lessons for the
future. j. O. THOMPSON.
