DEATH OF MRS. M. W. GAIT.

One Of washington's Best Known Women
Passes Away Surrounded by Her Family.
Washington will be shocked to hear Of the
death this morning at $50 o'clock Of Mrs. Mat
thew W. Gait. Mrs. Gait has had such host
Of friends in this city and elsewhere that her
death falls like personal bereavement on an
extended circle. For one year she has been in
ill health and lately was taken to the Adiron-
dacks, where an improvement was hoped for.
She received no material benefit from the trip,
however, and a week ago returned to her
home on H street between 14th and 18th, where
she expired this morning surrounded by her
family. DR.. Janeway in New York and Drs. w.
W. johnson and Frye in this city have exerted
every means known to medical skill to keep up
the failing strength Of the patient, but without
success, and the end gradually but surely crept
on.
In Washington society and in every sphere of
life's active work where good could be accom-
plished seldom have there been women who
have been 80 much admired and looked up to as
Mrs. Calf Her charities and Christian labors
have been unceasing, and nothing short of
death could cause her active brain to
S cease from planning and CARRYING out
cially active in the upbuilding Of the Church
Of the Covenant and the Children's Hospital.
and here as in other fields her generous aid
and active assistance will be greatly missed.
Seldom has there been seen so close q bond of
affection and regard as existed between Mr..
Matthew Gait and his departed wife. Boy and
girl, friends in their childhood, they passe
through youth. manhood and womanhood rs de-
voted husband and wife. Mrs. Gait leaves five
children. all Of them grown. Mr.. Charles E.
Calf, the eldest resides in Philadelphia. In this
city are Mr.. Walter A. Gait. Mr.. Norman Gait,

The funeral will be on Thursday afternoon
from the home and the interment, which will
be private, at Oak Hill.

Death Of "Billv" william.-


''Billy" Williams is dead. The news will
come with sense Of personal loss to the large
circle who knew and loved William F. Williams.
He died this morning at half-past eleven at Gar
field Hospital, where he was taken about q week
ago. He had been suffering from q carbuncle,
which resulted in blood poisoning. At the
time of his death Mr.. Williams was employed in
the cash room Of the treasury. He was widely
known in base ball circles, and for long time
was pitcher Of the old National nine. He il said
to have been the first pitcher to make use
of the curve, which was some years ago as un-
common as it is common now. Mr.. Williams
was born in this city some forty-nine years ago.
He graduated from Georgetown College and
began the study Of law with the late
James NJ. Carlisle, but owing to the
death Of his father he was thrown on his own
resources. He then entered the service Of the
government. Mr.. Williams leaves a widow to
mourn his loss. His remains were this after
noon removed to his late residence, No. 1876

Police Board Reports the Results Of In
vestigation by Ohacers.
On Saturday last the major Of police In &C
cordance with instructions from the Commits
sioners, detailed thirty-four privates in citi
zens' dress to accompany the garbage collector
and make reports to Lieuts. Hollinberger
Teeple and Boyle, who had been selected t.
take charge Of the matter.
The report of this board was handed to the
Commissioners this morning by Mai. Moore
and was as follows:
We have the honor to submit herewith the
reports Of the officers detailed to supervise The
collection Of garbage on the 9th instant, to-
gether with such facts as will tend to furnish
information relative to the garbage service
Carts and wagons In service until Q pm, SO
after that hour an additional wagon was added
use. An officer in citizens dress &C.
companied each team. Total number
Of visits made, 5,904. This include.
private residences, market buildings and
business places generally. With the following
exceptions, collections were made at all places
the collectors call; at two places the occupant,
refused to permit the garbage to be removed
in forty-four instances delays Of five minute.
and over were made.
WHY THE SERVICE Is INADEQUATE.
We conclude the following to be some of the
reasons for the inadequate garbage servict
rendered the cities of Washington and George
town:
1. Inadequate force in the collection, as evi
denced on the 9Th inst, there being but 5, go
visits ~ against total Of 40, 900 houses in thu
cities Of Washington and Georgetown to b.
served. At this rate bi-weekly service woult
only allow about 1900 premises to be visited
which is less than one-half the number neces
sary to be served.
2. Lack of facilities and insufficient force a
the dump. Under the present arrangement,
but one team load can be disposed Of at time
consequently there Is much delay caused BY the
arrival at the wharf OF number Of teams Ut tn.
same time.
8. Absence Of system in the collections
There being no supervision Of the service there
results consequent laxity on the part of thu
collectors in making thorough removals.
From the reports Of the officers IL seems tina
from two to four loads constitute days work
This being the case there necessarily results tn,
temptation to call at places where load MAJ
be most readily secured-such a. commission
houses, eating houses, grocers, &C., &C., thereby
neglecting the private residences.
4. Time lost in gossiping with servants, to
gether with other minor causes, contributes Il
the delay in the removal OF the garbage, mucl
Of which could be obviated by proper super
vision.

Rumor That Mr.. Clark Has Sold Out Hi,
Contract.


Contract.
The garbage complaint book at the health
office shows that during the twenty-four hours
ending at l o'clock this afternoon the COM
plants had almost donbied the number recorded
during the preceding twenty-four hours. when
sixty were recorded. The number recorded at
l o'clock today was lis, forty-five being re-
ported through the police department and
fifteen by telephone
1t was stated to a reporter Of The STAR this
afternoon by a gentleman acquainted with the
National Sanitary Company of Baltimore that
Garbage Collector Clark had sold his contract
to that company four months ago and that
Mr.. Clark had since then merely acted for the
company. In addition to his position as gar
bage collector Mr.. Clark also occupies the posi-
ton of engineer in the State, War and Navy
building.
The officials of the health Office claim that
they have done all in their power to perfect the
system, and think that they should not be held
responsible for its defects
