says:
Messrs. B. D. Stephen, Frank Browning
and J A. Bloudon. of Riverdale Park,
and Col Wsight Rives, United States
Army retired appeared before the Sen
ate subcommittee on the District of Col
nmbia Tuesday to urge the eXtention OF
Columbia Electric Railroad Company.
The route of this road has already been
decided upon 1t starts at Riverdale Park
and runs southerly, through the farm of
DIR. c. 4. Wells, to the Washington and
Baltimore turnpike, thence through
Evansville and Bladensburg, along the
Bladensburg pike to fifteenth street and
Florida avenue northeast, Washington,
D. c., out Maryland avenue to E. street,
and thence to the intersection of Louisiana
avenue and seventeenth street northwest.
Owing to the inability of those interested
in the District of Columbia portion of the
road to raise the necessary funds with
which too build the road as far as Rivers
Station. the District of Columbia boundary
line. the charter was allowed to lapse. The
promoters of the scheme in Maryland
have always been ready to start the road
and the fact that the company is now
seeking an extension Of their charter is
taken as an INDICATION that the District of
Columbia people are ready to begin work.
II is stated that if the charter is extended
work will be commenced within month.
Mr. Charles B. Calvert also appeared
before the committee in the interests
of the Maryland Electric Railway.
In this connection we would add that
last week, ~ a communication 10 the
chairman of the Senate committee on the
District of Columbia, the commissioners,
referring to the bill to authorize the
Washington and Marlboro Electric Rail
way Company of Maryland TO extend its
line into and within tbs District of Col
