ANACOSTIA LINE,
Mr.. Ramsey Complains Of the Poor
Service.


Service.
w. H. Ramsey. a representative OF the
Central Union Mission. has written the fol-
lowing letter to the Commissioners regard
ing the service rendered the public BY the
Anacostia Street Railway Company:
Il have been engaged in the work of the
Central Union Mission for the last seven
years. The last three years my mission
work has been located near the corner of
LIST and NJ streets southeast on a branch of
this company's line. The summer schedule
low in operation gives one car every twelve
minutes or this branch after = am. until
pm. from which time until Il pm. they
have but one car in thirty minutes. No car
on any line of this company is supplied with
conductor. The regular cars on the I'd
and NJ street branch are one-horse cars
No shelter is provided for the public at
either the 18th and NJ street transfer sta
ton, or al I'd and Canal streets, which, YOU
will readily SEE, the circumstances would
seem to require l believe the laws govern
ing street cars in the District would re-
Qui-e this company to give the public much
better service than that now rendered, ard
therefore appeal to you as the guardians of
public interests to require of them an i'm
provement in said service. They will claim
that the traffic does not justify ii. but | am
well satisfied that their traffic would be
largely increased IL the services rendered
were adequate to the needs of the section of
the city through which their lines pass"

PATTED THE BRUTE.


And He Buried His Teeth I'm Her Arna
Mrs. Annie Freas Of Philadelphia is minus
the greater portion of her right arm as the
result of well-meant but nlischievous caress-
ing of a pretty black bear at the ZOO on
Wednesday. Mrs. Freas and her daughter
in-law took a drive out to the park. and
upon their arrival at the Zoo concluded
to go in and see the animals Mrs Freas
was attracted by a bear. and said to Mrs
Freas, jr.: My, what dear little pet"
The younger woman lest Mrs. Freas at the
bear pit and went of to look at the other
animals. The bear seemed to fascinate her
She engaged in conversation with a by
stander and said: MY. what a beautiful
coat he has. l am going to pat him on the
without effect and suiting the action to the
word, MIS-, Freas jumped over a guard rail,
which is situated fully three feet from the
pit. to keep out just such sentiment tally in
clined people, and stuck her hand inside the
cage. IT, sunk into the soft hair Of the ami
NAL and at first his bearship seemed to like
the caresses very much.
.::5'.Ae- $eised the Arm.
See" said Mrs. Treas. he is perfectly
tame, and It Is a shame to keep him at q
place like this such . hot day About
this time the younger Mrs. Treas returned.
and the elder said:
Come here; see how nice his hair IL. He
I
The young woman was about to do this
and Mrs Treas started to withdraw her
arm, when there was a decided change in
the situation. He didn't want that arm
withdrawn or he didn't want the younger
woman's arm, for in an instant he sunk his
teeth into Mrs. Freas arm below the elbow
and closed his jaws on II with the firmness
of a vise.- There was a cracking sound as
his teeth crushed through the bones of the
arm. The screams of the two women
brought Head Keeper Manley and an as
s.stant to the scene. and they at once en-
deavored to release the womans arm. They
found the beast simply furious with rage
They beat him and attempted to attract
his attention elsewhere. but without result.
Finally. with the aid of rods and their
united strength the men succeeded in max
ing the animal release his jaws. The wo-
mans arm dropped helpless to her side
and the blood flowed freely from it.
Every Artery Severed.
Every artery was severed, and she would
have bed to death had ii not been for a
thoughtful spectator. He at once tore up
his handkerchief, and making a long cord
of it he bound it around the upper part of
the arm and stopped the flow of blood The
Hospital quickly possible. The doc
tors found that the woman's arm below the
elbow was mass of shreds and the only
thing that could be done was to amputate
1t short distance above the elbow. This
vas done by DR.. Heubner, and she was
then taken to her home.

this regularity is not forced upon the eye

On the contrary, the lines are everywhere

1t opened 4 higher at S5%, fell to S42s,
jumped to S6A, dropped to S2& and raj
he'd to S4h. The early rise was due to
the announcement that the manage
ment of the company had thought bet
ter of its original intention of a COM
plete shutdown of the retinerles and
has ordered the resumption of work at
the Williamsburg plants This induced
considerable covering Of short stock,
but when the presidents message be-
came public there was rush to sell
and the stock fell to the lowest point
for long time. Rumors about the
dividend which is to be decided either
Wednesday or Thursday helped to keep
the stock feverish, In usually we'll in
formed quarters it is believed that
Havemeyer's interest favors a reduc-
ton and that they will carry the point
now that the president has come out in
such strong terms against the COM
pany. Chicago Gas was heavy on
liquidations selling down to 6S7s, in
fluenced by rumors of reduction in
the dividend rate. The general market
was weakened in the early trading by
the advance in sterling, which revived
the talk about gold exports. The early
decline averaged about la per cent. Az
ter awhile the market cut away from
the lnduStrials and moved up all along
the line. The Improvement in the gem
eral list ranged from u to 1A North

ened in the late dealings by the an
nouncement that the Lehigh Valley
road had agreed to a reduction in out
put for December and to tidewater, line
