PUBLIC OR PRIVATE PROPERTY?
A Demand for Extension of Streets
Through Georgetown College Grounds.


For long time the question Of extending
the streets through the Georgetown College
grounds has been the subject Of much COM
ment and the Commissioners have received
many letters on the subject. Most of these
letters come from Georgetown. Some are
petitions praying for relief, others demand
that existing distractions to street extension
be removed The last one Of this latter class
comes from Geo. W. King and others, who say:
Having peatedly requested and having
been often promised that the obstruction on
Prospect street should be removed, which
promises have not been fulfilled, and as ex-
tensive improvements have been made by Us,
thereby increasing the taxation, and having
been put to much additional cost by said OBJ
structions. We now, as taxpayers and CT tzens,
demand that said distractions be Immediately
removed We also protest against a permit
being granted to the officials of Georgetown
College to obstruct any of the western ex-
tensions Of our streets"
The obstruction above referred to consists Of
a fence across the street and q small wooden
shed or kitchen attached to a one-story frame
house standing on the grounds Of the college,
and which were not removed from Prospect
avenue when other buildings were removed
from the street by the superintendent of
streets. Capt. Rossell was called upon for a
report and today he submitted the following:
1T seems to me that the question Of owner
ship of these streets through Georgetown Col
lege grounds has been settled, and if they be-
long to the public the distractions should be
removed" The board will! discuss the case.

THE "FAT" DISPATCH.
Col. Jones I'm st. Louis, Cleveland's
Friend, Printed it Also.

The Sun today comes back to the controversy
with Mr.. Cleveland and says: up to the pres
ent time there has been no authoritative denial
decent language attributed to him. He has
neither repudiated the shamelessly base and
cowardly charge that the Sun has attacked Mrs.
Cleveland, nor attempted to prove it 1t is true
that some of Mr.. Cleveand's political associates.
wiser than himself, have been making friendly
efforts in newspaper Offices and elsewhere to
rescue him from the predicament In which the
unexpected publication Of his words involved
him. But there il one circumstance which in
dicates with sufficient distInctness whether
these friendly and ingenious efforts are IN
spired by interest in the cause OF abstract truth
or merely by a sudden solicitude for the politi-
cal prospects Of q supposed candidate. The
interview appeared on Thursday morning last
Thursday afternoon and Friday morning passed
without any real or pretended denial of the
truth Of the interview. The attempt to dis
credit the World reporter did not begin until
Friday afternoon, after the Sun had replied to
Mr.. Cleveland, and after the extent of the
damage he had inflicted upon himself had be-
come fully apparent to every person OF common
sense.
After an investigation Of our own as to the
circumstances attending the interview, we are
satisfied that the report printed in the World
was iuaccuraso only 50 Iar a. IL laileu 10 exnlplt
the language employed by Mr.. Cleveland in
the full measure Of its violence. its almost in
conceivable grossness and its unprintsble pro-
family.
I'm discussing the subject, IL is proper to add
this: The occasion of the interview and the
exciting cause Of Mr.. Cleveland's loss of self.
control were the publication in the San on
wednesday morning, April Is, Of a dispatch
from Washington making certain statemen It'd
about the ex-President's physical development.
Precisely the same dispatch from Washington
was printed on that same morning by Mr..
ally, Maj. Charles H. Jones, in the news col.
umns Of the st. Louis Republic, the most con.
slant and devoted Of all newspaper organs OF
Mr.. Grover Cleveland"

THE STAR DID 1T.
How the Nucleus for the National Mu-
scum Was Secured.

A very interesting fact was developed in the
debate in the Senate yesterday on the worlds
fair bill. Senator Blair was speaking and he
said 1.-THE Senator from Nevada, Mr.. Stewart,
alluded to his idea of a memorial hall to be
built in this dity 1t is not an idea to be lightly
surrendered. We have the germ of it already
in our National Museum in this city. That
National Museum originated in this way and
have long thought it was an act Of justice to the
gentleman whom am about to name that this
important deed Of his in connection with the
history of his country should be placed upon
the public records.
1T was my chance to board for considerable
time at the same place in the city Of Philadel-
phla with Mr.. 8. H. Kaufman Of The STAR in
this city during the worlds exposition at Phila-
delphia in 1876. As we all know, he is a learned
gentleman and a very able writer. He spent
many weeks carefully examining, viewing and
studying the exposition at Philadelphia, and
from time to time wrote descriptions of what
was there to be seen to The EVENING STAR.
remember many conversations with this gen.
tleman with reference to the wonders which
were there exhibited, and what an exceeding
misfortune 1t would be If that exposition should
be lost when it was broken up and dissolved;
that in some way it ought to be preserved in its
most substantial and essential features. He
wrote to his paper the suggestion that there be
established at Washington . national museum,
in which should be gathered all the various
cufiosities and the more important things, the
more instructive things, which were there ex-
hibited, for permanent preservation and as the
nucleus around which and in connection with
which like objects could be gathered in all fu-
ture time.
From that germ came the National Museum
in this city. which believe today to be of more
actual use and instruction perhaps-in connec-
ton with the Smithsonian Institution of more ac-
tual use to the American people than everything
else there is to show to them here-a perpetual
school, an object or feature of more interest,
OF more instruction, Of more absolute good to
the American people than anything else that
there is here.
This great exposition of 1892 or 1893 should
be utilized and preserved in the same way. 1t
would require great enlargement of the same
building or the erection of new ones in connec-
ton with it, but that feature ought not to be
lost sight Of. Perhaps immediate legislation is
not necessary with reference to it, but that
memorial building should be erected, and thus
this exhibition be made instructive to the ma
tion for all time"
