'What is that strip of track that was laid
on North Eighth street two or three years
ago by the Inter State Railway company
good for?" is a question that has puzzled
people at different times, but it has finally
found solution.
A suit was commenced in the district court
yesterday by Mrs. l.. l.. Hendricks, which is
likely to cost the city some money before it
is finished. MIR. and Mrs. Hendricks were
out driving in cutter last Sunday after
noon. When they reached the corner of
avenue ID and Eighth street the cutter came
into collision with the end of the rails which
have been projecting over the edge of the
last tie ever since the track was laid. Tho
horse was going at IL good gait, and the in
stunt the collision occurred the harness
snapped and the horse started to run, while
the sleigh stopped so suddenly as to throw
both occupants Il distance of ten or fifteen
feet, so they claim. They landed with con-
siderable force on the ground. Mr.. Hen
bricks was lucky enough to escape without Il
scratch, but Mrs. Hendricks sustained a
number of bad bruises and some internal in
iuriCS which il is feared will result seriously
The city authorities were served with Il
notice yesterday that petition would be
filed in time for the January term of court
claiming damages in the sum of $1,000.
Jesse HollCnbecl states that his sleigh alsC
collided with the same track and was broken
to pieces last Tuesday. This is the first
thing that has been heard from in connection
with the interstate railway project for a
long time

NOR MANY YEARS THE LONG BRIDGE
Il has been one Of the local features Of which
Washington was justly ashamed; for many
years that same antiquated structure has been
regarded with fear, and for an equally long
period there has been tolerably continuous eff
for. to bring about its reconstruction on mod
ern lines. The public has long been convinced
that the bridge was in itself dangerous and
that it, in its capacity a dam, menaced mil
lions OF dollars worth Of property, but it was
left for those whose interest in the structure is
proprietary to make plain the condition of af
fairs, which TIE STAR long ago called atten-
ton 70.
Two weeks ago Senator Barbour introduced
q bill. which in a preamble states that an act
of Congress approved June p, 1870. requires
the Baltimore and Potomac Railroad Company
to maintain the Long bridge in good condition.
and that since the passage of said act the rail-
way traffic over said bridge has so greatly In
creased as to make said bridge unsafe for ordi-
nary travel, b. reason of the close proximity of
the highway over the same to the tracks Of said
railroad, and it is necessary that further action
be taken to render said highway safe and con-
venient."
In a very modest way the bill then goes on to
provide that the Baltimore and Potomac Com
pany - authorized and required to constrrct,
at a cost not to exceed $4,000, new pubic
highway from the foot OF 18th street 10 the
main channel Of the Potomac. At this time the
highway Immediately adjOlns the railroad track,
q mOldy fence being the only separation until
the bridge IL reached. The proposed highway
Is TO be fifty feet from the present highway and
on the west side of IT. Then II Is provided that
In consideration of the cOmPanys furnishing
the new highway the company shall have the
right to Use the present highway between l4th
street and the main channel entirely Tor rail-
wGy traffic. a fair exchange Is no
robbery" but the term fair can hardly
be used in connection with a transaction
which would require of the railroad company
q sum no: to exceed SIS. 900 and give IN ex-
change property worth many times that
amount Those who are supposed 10 know
some thing of the railroads desires say that the
bill Is but the cover for a scheme which would
ruin what will soon be, II unmUlested, the most
popular park In the District Separate the
railroad tracks and the highway at 18th street.
giving the railway the whole causeway as II
now exists. and the result would be a great
gain fog the corporation at the expense OF the
general and local governments Fifty feet
west OF the proposed new tracks would be the
new highway ridge extending from 18th
street to the river anu cutting oil the now pos
sible driveways- Singulary enough, the new
highway. If Just fifty feet from the present
one, would start out by crossing the
tidal reservoir outlet recently constructed at
great expense to the government This
structure Is Of Sranite-a very nne specimen OF
engineering and stone work. Had the pro-
posed highway been located further east and
