animal together. One night We came over
this side of the creek together and proceed

ticket between us. The bobtail cars, with

original idea of splitting that ticket in half
and dropping the two pieces in the box. We
boarded the last car over and carried out

EPIDEMIC OF SUICIDES.
The Health officer Calls Attention to
the Prevalence.

The health officer in his weekly bulletin
says: There was further improvement in
the health Of the city last week. AS COM
pared with the preceding report the decline
in the mortality amounted to fifteen per
cent These improved conditions were most
ly due to the decrease in the number of
cases of lung ailments. there having been
six less deaths from consumption and eight
from pneumonia. Nine new cases Of scar
latina, with one death and three of diph-
iberia, with two deaths therefrom were re-
ported. But one fatal case of typhoid fever
occurred, while malarial diseases are hardly
noticeable in extent An unusual number
of deaths from violence happened during
the week, two of which were suicidal. The
presence of one of those mysterious waves
of spiritual or physical character which in
huence human souls in similar directions
at given times is seen in the commission Of
seven suicides within the last three weeks,
five of which were by "gunshot."
The detailed report gives: Number of
deaths, 1O2; white. SO: colored, 40. Death
rate per 1000 per annum-White. 141; COL
ored, 2S3. Total population, 1876.
The principal causes of death were: Diph-
iberia, 2; consumption, 8; diarrhoeal, 9;
erysipelas. 1; typhoid fever, 1; malariaI
fever. 1; scarlet fever. 1; pneumonia, Is:

There were 9S births and 20 marriages re-
ported.

THE COMMISSIONERS OBJECT.
They Say Railroads Should Not Inter-
fere With the Potomac Park.

Late yesterday afternoon the Commits
sioners made their report to Congress on
the bill chartering the Falls Church and
Potomac railway. After recommending sew
eral minor amendments, their report argues
against the use of c street extended for the
ferry. at least until after the building of the
Memorial bridge. All this reservation, the
Commissioners think, should form a part of
the intended Potomac park. The Commits
sioners are also of the opinion that it is
desirable to avoid railroad crossings of
Pennsylvania avenue where they are not
necessary. and that railroad terminus at
18th and H streets would be Objectionable.
The report then continues in regard to the
route:
THE proposed Falls Church road, which
would be both a market and excursion road,
should reach the Center Market, and could
conveniently do SO along B street. termi-
mating between 9Th and 7th streets, at
natural center of street car traffic, and
where the Commissioners have in view the
establishment Of a union street-car station,
outside of the present roadway. looped
branch from B street could be run to near
pennsylvania avenue for the accommoda-
ton of travel, and from the Treasury build
ing and hotels and theaters Of that vicinity"
The report recommends that in place Of
the ferry landing provided by the bill "a
much better ferry landing for the business
of the present and immediate future would
be at b street and New Hampshire avenue"
From this point the railway route, it is
judged should be east on E street to 18th
street; south on 18th street to & street, and
then along b street to point between 9Th
and 7th streets to be designated by the Com
missioners. The intersection of E and 18th
streets is near the State, War and Navy
Department building. The branch from B
street should be via 18th, 4 and 18th streets
LAS the landing is at the ends Of streets,
and not on a reservation, the lease of the
grounds to the corporation should be made
by the District Commissioners"
The report states that the Washington,
Alexandria and Mount Vernon Electric Rail-
way Company are also seeking a ferry grant
at the upper part of the reclaimed flats and
recommends that one locality be designated
for the ferry buildings of both companies
and also one route for that into Washing
ton.
