THE NEW CABLE ROAD.

Plan to Change the Tracks on 14th Between
New York Avenue and H Street.
President Hurt of the Washington and
Georgetown Railroad Company had confer
ence with the Commissioners this morning
with reference to the new cable
road. The company is endeavoring to
reduce to Q minimum all of the dangerous
places along the line. One Of the places to be
feared and one which the company endeavored
to obliterate by an act Of Congress allowing the
road to continue up l4th street to H, thence
east along H to 14th to the regular tracks, is
that portion Of 14th street between New York
avenue and H street where the Metro
politan Railroad Company and the WASH
ington and Georgetown Railroad Company
run on the same tracks. The act did
not pass. President Hurt presented
a plan to the Commissioners this morning
which will greatly diminish the chances of ac-
cident. His plan is to put the tracks Of the
Washington and Georgetown railroad on the
west side Of the street and put the tracks of
the Metropolitan railroad on the east side. By
such an arrangement the Washington and
Georgetown railroad would cross the tracks of
the Metropolitan railroad at but ore point-H
street-instead Of at two points as at present.
The matter was discussed at length by the Com
missioners. The engineer department will
make a report.

church has been greatly improved by putting
in stained glass windows and the removal of
the organ from the rear of the church to a re-
cess back of the pulpit Beginning the new
year with an increased number of pew holders
and larger congregations the church gives
