NOT ENOUGH HELP.
Building Inspector Entwisle Says He is
Shorthanded.

Building Inspector Entwisle Says He is
Shorthanded.
Building Inspector Entwisle said yesterday
81 have two or three things to say, and i want
you newspaper fellows to say them shortly.
There is much said about failures in building,
because of lack of proper supervision of con-
struction but there is not word Of truth in
it. The truth is, that | have only two, where
as | ought to have six inspectors. Even
those would be too few for the vast amount
of building inspected.
s'But take the Shoreham for instance whose
floors gave way a few days ago. Do you
know that Vice President Morton had en-
gagged man at his own expense to look after
the proper construction of the building? We
control every plan and permitf for construction
and we go there as often as we can to see
whether they are complied with"
But" said the reporter, "don't you look
after such matters yourself? ?'
ssNo," said Mr.. Entwistle; 'sas ] told you
before, have only two and l ought to have
eight assistants and we can't look out for
everything. / have only this one thing to say,
that when parties are building big houses and
have their own special guards, on whom they
depend, it is high time to let us out. We
have always done the best we could"
''But,h asked the reporter, ''what will be
the changes in the new police regulations q"
''Mr. Entwisle said that those regulations
need enforcement. He said that they were
now in the hands of the Public Printer and
would not be given out for some weeks, but
he said that the gist of them was that here
after there would be no Mrs. Catharine Coles
projections on District or Governmental prop
erty without the consent of the authorities,
and moreover that no large Office building
should be henceforth erected in the city unless
it could be testified as fire proof by the in
spector of District public buildings

The New bathing Reach.

Work on the new bathing beach, which
Washington is going to have this summer
sure, was commenced Thursday, and it is ex-
pected that everything will be completed by
the last of May, by which time the water will
be of the proper temperature for bathing pur-
poses. The building inspector, after care
fully looking over the ground, found that the
beach needed grading, the mud-machines hav-
ing dredged SO close up to the sea-wall that
the result was the water was quite deep at
that point. He suggested the fact to the Com
missioners, who authorized him to properly
grade the beach and put in sand all over the
bottom to the depth of foot or more
The plans for the lighthouses have all been
completed, and when they are erected will be
very neat and pretty. There will be two Of
these houses, containing thirty-two rooms
each, one for male and one for females two
long wharves, having steps on each side, lead
from the houses into the water. No regula-
tions have been formulated as yet as to the
privileges of the baths, but it is very probable
that they will he framed on those of the New
York public baths with some notifications.

Messrs. Moses ~ Sons to Build a Fine Adj
dition to Their Establishment.
An important Improvement soon to be be-
gun on street is the addition to be made TO
their mammoth building by Messrs. w. B.
Moses & Sons. The addition will consist Of
continuation of their present edifice for 25
feet along f stror' end extending back 81 feet
1t will be, lihv Lac present building, seven
stories in height and will have a magnificent
show-window the whole width Of the front
There will be no street entrance to the addi-
tiop. Each floor will consist of single big
room, to be used as show and storage-rooms
for furniture, carpets etc. The building will
be lit by electricity, and the construction will
be similar in every particular to the present
building. 1t was intended to begin the tearing
down of the old structure which now occupies
the site on the 1st of May, but one of the ten
ants was not ready to move out, SO it had to
be delayed. Work may be begun on May Is,
and certainly not later than the first of June.
AS the construction will be simple it is eX-
pected that the job will be completed in sixty
days. A. b. Mullett's Sons are the architects.

In the year 1878, or eighteen years ago, the
Independent Ice Company was organized
under the Washington management, and since
that time the increase in the prosperity of the
company has been phenomenal This com
pany was the first south of Baltimore to store
their own ice in the State of Maine, where,
two years after their organization here, they
purchased land and erected ice-houses at
Pittston, on the Kennebec River, with
storage capacity of fifteen thousand tons, the
company disbursing at that time about ten
thousand tons. 1t soon became necessary
owing to the rapid increase in their trade, to
increase yearly their storage capacity in Maine
where they can now keep on hand about
seventy-fve thousand tons, besides the store
house here, which has capacity now of nearly
fifteen thousand tons.
In 1873 it only required twelve or thirteen
vessels of seven hundred or eight hundred
tons capacity each to transport their ice to this
and other Southern ports. Last year it was
necessary to employ siXty-six vessels, averag
ing one thousand tons each, to supply the
same localities so rapid has been the increase
in the demand for the ice handled by this com
pany.
The most improved machinery for cultivat-
ing, sIOIlnS, anu sHlpplnS lce 10 oWncu anu
used by the Independent Company at all their
6epots, and the management intend to make
this company one of the largest and finest in
the country.
In this city, owing to the greatly increased
demand for Kennebec ice it was found neces-
sary to erect additional store houses of greater
capacity, and to enlarge and extensively i'm
prove their central depots here The company
has also now under construction another large
storage-house to hold ten thousand tons of ice.
The first Kennebec ice of the season arrived
at the Independent Company's wharf Thursday
contained in two four-mast schooners, hold,
ing respectively eleven and fourteen thousand
tons.
In few days the Independent Ice Company
will remove from their present quarters to the
new and spacious offices which have been so
handsomely fitted up for their use. Some
time ago this company purchased the building
formerly occupied by the Columbia Bank
Note Company, 90S and 9l0 Pennsylvania
avenue, and have completely reconstructed
and improved it, The cellars have been fitted
up with all the latest improvements in
sanitary plumbing, end the sewerage system
has been so arranged that should at any time
| freshet occur it will be impossible for the
