Inspections OF buildings that really in
spect would seem to be one OF the crying
needs of this city. and these more rigid
examinations should be bestowed upon
structures erected by the United States
as we'll as upon those built by the District
and by individuals. OF late years there
have been altogether too many buildings
collapsng and falling The crash of floors
at the Shoreham Hotel. the Metzerott Hall
disaster and the terrible calamity at Fords
old theater are fresh in the public mind.
Yesterday came the news that a portion
OF the ceiling of one of the rooms in the
Tyler school building had fallen. OF course
the fall Of few square yards of plaster
In Of no earthly consequence except to
the individuals who may happen to be o.
rectly underneath. At least this seems to
be the opinion of the inspector OF build
ings. To some people. however. such an
accident would seem to hold the germ of a
disaster. In building crowded with chill
dren OF all ages panic is frdught with
as much danger as a fire or the fall of
walls. and the ease with which such panic
can be brought about was clearly illustrat-
ed last week at the Garrett school. At the
Tyler building Monday such an affair,
with all it's horrors. it's screaming children
piling over one another in frantic effort
% escape some real or imagined danger, was

only averted by the prompt and cool actions
Of the teachers. A COW is said to have kick
ed over lamp and thereby caused the
great Chicago fire and q fall Of plaster may
easily cause a tragedy. The building In
spector explains the Tyler building AFFAIR
somewhat in this way: The part of the
ceiling which fell was put up in frosty
weather and in such cases these falls al
most Invariably happen. II this explana-
ton Ii correct then why In common sense
II 1t was known that the mortar had been
touched with frost was II not taken down
and replaced under the influence OF some
| balmy summer day? The building inspec-
| tor also says that the report that an ex-
animation will be made OF all school build
| ings in order to avert any further accidents
| Is misleading. as such examinations are
made continually and regularly. Notwith
standing these inspections the ceiling al
| the Tyler building fell and at the time Of
| the GARRETT school panic one Of the two
exits was 1t is alleged. so blocked will
iron castings and building material that FOL
months the children had considered 1t i'm
passable. It would surely be well to MAKE
these regular inspections a tride NOR

Willing to wrestle first with the greater
evil, the District Commissioners have re-
commended that Congress grant the au-
thority necessary to compel the burying
in conduits Of the electric light wires that
now deface the streets and continually
menace life and property. The move is
one that will commend itself to every
thoughtful citizen, for of all the forms Of
electrical peril that have resulted from
mans ingenuity none are more deadly than
the electric light wire when it is attend
ing to business. Ali kinds of overhead
wires are nuisances that should be abated
with all possible Notwithstanding Con-
gress recognized when 1t declared that no
additional wires should be strung within
the city's limits-but as the work of reform
must be done in sections the Commission
ers have resolved wisely that the most
dangerous Of the distractions should first
be removed. To this Recommendation the
electric light company cannot nationally
take exception. Every wind storm does in.
finite damage to the company's property
rendering its service unsatisfactory and
causing many people serious Inconvenience
The expenses of frequent renewal will b.
entirely obviated by the burial of the wire,
| and at the same time the quality Of thu
service will be vastly improved. Two troll
| ley wires still disfigure one Of the city's ave
nues, but these, under the operation o.
| law, must soon coma down. When theI
have been removed and all electric ligh
| wires are beneath the street surface tn
beauty and desirability Of the national cap
ital as a place of residence will be mater
tally enhanced.

Very properly the grand jury that was
summoned to investigate the riotous con-
duct that disgraced Roanoke a month ago
has condemned those who appeared to be
most active in the wholly discreditable pro-
ceedings. Indictments are certain as to
nineteen of the more prominent members
Of the mob that had to be repulsed by force
of arms and although conviction may not
be easy 1t Is to be hoped that the thriving
city will purge itself by dealing out even
handed justice in allopathic doses. The
grand jury declares emphatically that the
mayor was right in doing his utmost to
uphold the law. that the militia who fired
upon the disturbers were completely tusti-
fled in this act, and that the police were
all wrong when, by the removal of the pris-
oner who was afterward lynched, they gave
the mob the opportunity 1t sought. 1t is
fair to presume that the lynchers will not
agitate revival of their lawless methods
and a personal application Of the doctrines
they SO loudly preached on the twentieth
day of September last; the statutes made
and provided and the duly constituted
courts will doubtless be considered to oper-
ate with sufficient speed in their own cases
