IT ADJOURNED wEDNESpAN.->oNt
THING OF WHAT 1T HAS DONE.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1895-11-13

Turkey continues to occupy the central
field Of international attention, because Of
the extremely critical state Of affairs in
the Ottoman Empire and the impending as
sault of the five great powers of Europe
upon the Sultan to force him to adopt de-
Gently humane course towards Armenia.
Meanwhile the rebellion in that province,
as 1t has now developed, continues, and
Turkey Is in seething ferment. Lord
Salisbury endeavored with some success to
allay apprehension the other night by his
pacific speech at the Lord Mayors banquet,
and the tone Of his remarks served to re-
establish confidence on the various ex-
changes. which had become greatly agi-
tated over the situation. But 1t seems to
be now generally considered that his words
were diplomatic and that they concealed a
great anxiety over the state of affairs.
Turkeys course is insolent and far p;ore
independent than the Sultan can well afford
to have 1t in view of the pressure that is
growing stronger every day for his deposit
tion.

The Fight il to Go On.

The railroad companies whose tracks now
occupy the streets of Washington at grade
may as well prepare for a vigorous cam
paign this winter on the question of the
elevation or the depression Of the rails.
There will assemble next month lew
Congress- composed Of some old members
and Of many rev ones. The subject OF
grade crossings will be brought TO the at
tentfon Of both houses at the earliest pos
sible moment, and the history Of the whole
long. weary struggle of the citizens to re-
nevs themselves Of this nuisance will be
set forth In a manner that can not fail to
attract attention. There is every reason to
hope that the problem may be solved. Both
of the two great corporations shat are the
chief Offenders In this regard stand prac-
ttcally pledged to amend their. track sys-
tens so as to avoid grade crossings. and
their former plea of hard times which
alone stood in the way of legislation COM
pelling a change. will no longer be toler-
ated. for 1t Is no longer applicable. The
Baltimore and Ohio Company has agreed
to adopt an overhead system. bringing Its
several tracks into the city on masonry
viaduct planned somewhat on the Berlin
system. as advocated by The Star. The
Pennsylvania company has agreed gener-
ally to a change whereby Its tracks will
be depressed. and has given assurances to
certain of the most prominent members of
the District committees in charge Of such
legislation, that in Difference to public
opinion the corporation will soon alter its
local track systems. The engineers Of both
roads have prepared the necessary plans
for the promised improvements. 1t only
remains to secure the command to go ahead
from Congress.
The railroads would be wise to hasten to
meet the citizens half way and to accept
legislation that will terminate their pres
ent unrighteous and dangerous occupation
Of the streets. II, however, there Is a strug
gle. possibly the most effective method OF
dealing with the problem would be for
Congress to pass bill fixing date after
which grade crossings of steam roads in the
city of Washington would be unlawful, and
punishable by a heavy penalty. Such a
law would at least give definite assur-
ance that the end Of the grade-crossing
evil was in sight, and whether the term Of
further endurance should be three years
or five. or even six, the question would be
so near settlement that every local interest
would receive the immediate benefit Of the
legislation. The Star believes the Berlin
method of track elevation on masonry
viaducts to be the best. and therefore it
approves the general plan that has been put
forward by the Baltimore and Ohio rail-
road. but 1t Is not 80 welded TO this sys-
tenn. or indeed to any particular plan, that
It would not welcome heartily any legisla-
ton that would give positive promise of a
termination of the long and costly fight
ard the abatement OF the grade-crossings
nuisance.
Congress must share with the railroads

Another "Belt" Line Change.

The Belt street railway company an
nounces that 1t is compelled, in order to re-
duce its losses to revert to the unpopular,
inconvenient, and. in the opinion Of many,
illegal. plan of maintaining two distinct
lines of cars instead of belt, as contem-
plated by the original and secondary acts
Of Congress granting life to this corpora
tion. The road is so located in the neigh
borhoOd of rapid transit lines that it can
not possibly compete profitably as long as
1t insists upon keeping up the obsolete
method of propulsion by horses, and this
experience should spur the company to
extra enterprise in installing one Of the
several approved electrical or other me-
chanical devices without delay. Meanwhile
the few remaining patrons Of the road. who
are forced by reason of their personal con-
venience to continue to use the slow cars
of the company, are put to the extra dig
comfort and annoyance Of this retrograde
change in the running Of the road The
way for the company to lessen its losses
and to most quickly convert them INTO
revenues is not to move backward. but to
move forward: not to cease to expend
money in performing the functions Of a
public carrier. but to spend more money at
once upon the suggested pneumatic motors.
or gas motors, or any quickly obtained
system of rapid propulsion which will en-
able it to share business with its rapid
transit competitors.
Compressed air motors are operated sue
cessfully at several points in Europe. The
workings of one in the suburbs Of Paris
have been described in The Star. There is
no more question of their successful opera
ton in this country than there was and is
Of the success in Washington of a modified
form of the electric system used in Buda-
Pesth, now operating on Ninth street. The
disease known as the overhead trolley blight
is beg. ming to he less fatal in American air
than it has been to the successful but more
expensive systems of street-car propulsion
that flourish in Europe.

The Building Regulations.

Important amendments to the building
regulations are likely to result from the re-
pert Of the committee appointed by the
District Commissioners to consider this
matter. The city has grown so rapidly In
the past few ears that the old regulations
were in many respects aptiquated and in
adequate. The committees report gives
evidence Of careful study of the subject.
Ono Of the most important items of the
new rules is the establishment Of a sched-
ule of the different strengths of material
used in buildings. which should operate to
prevent the use Of inferior materials and
perhaps to avoid serious disaster. In the
matter Of foundations. too. the new rules
are OF special value, particularly in regard
