YESTERDAY received another hard blow from
the Commissioners. in the shape of an ad-
verse report 20 Congress on the scheme of

The report is similar in every way to a
former report. except in one particular
In their first etter to Congress they stated
that they do not care To make any recon-
menda tions IS to the line, or to have any
thing to do withit, as they are unable to
collect bills long since due from it, for
repairing tha streets along its tracks. The
roa d contends that it's present contract does
not compel & to make any repairs of this
kind. The Commissioners reiterate their
former rem irks on this score, and then
state that il Congress decides TO allow the
road to put in the new system, it should
be with the unGersta udins that no such
contention shall be entertained in the
future.
The Com pissioners again repeat their
warning that the Navy Yard Bridge is
unsafe for the heavy cars OF an electric

Woman Discovered in Almost
Frozen Condition.
Policeman Bean Of the sixth precinct was
summoned to the house Of Mr.. H. T. Cation,
No. 453 G street northwest by a report that
a woman lodger in the house had not been
seen since last Saturday. The woman re-
ferred to is Mrs. Catherine Smith, about
forty-five years old. whose husband is a
soldier at Hampton. Two months ago she
rented a basement room in Mr.. .aton's
house. Her husband was here at that time,
but he returned to Hampton.
When the policeman called at the house
and knocked at the woman's door he re-
ceived no response. Then he broke open
the door. and there he found the woman.
apparently almost frozen. In the poorly
furnished room there was a bed and stove,
but there was no fire in the stove. Some
rice that had been left in pan on the
table was frozen solid, and other than this
there was nothing to eat found in the
room.
I'll be all right said the woman when
questioned. Just let me alone and I'll
take care of my own affairs
The police ambulance was sent for but
Mrs. Smith refused to go to the hospital.
Mrs. Cation had fire started in the stove
The physician to the poor was sent for to
attend her.
1t is stated that sixteen years ago Mrs.
Smith lost her only child, and she has
brooded over her loss until her m-nd is
affected. She formerly lived in Philadel-
phia, where, it is stated, she spent some
time in an asylum.

Folsom thinks Washington is on the eve
of rich mining development. He has the
evidence Of the existence of gold there in
the form ,of nuggets from a lot of $40 400
worth washed from forty square feet of
gravel. As color of gold can be seen in
every handful of sand taken from the bed
of streams coming from the eastern slope
Of the Cascades. it is onIs reasonable TO as
sumo that at bed rock the precious stun
will be found in many localities in paying
quantities when the search Is prosecuted
as 1t Is in Alaska and California. The rush
to Alaska. he says. is now on, and Seattle
is sending out steamer every day bound

George Sullivan Makes a Novel Trip

Little George Sullivan is a Brooklyn boy
His well-shaped head is bright outside and
in because his hair is red enough to flag
a train, and his brain is quick, active alert
and well balanced. George left his home in
Brooklyn after school was over on the
18th of last June, and, with bootblacks
box swung over his shoulder, started out
to see the Union. He didn't believe every
thing he had reau in his geography, SO he
concluded to run over the map for himself.
He went py the b. and o. route to st.
Louis but he did not ride inside of car,
but made his journey on the bunkers be-
meath. He reached Denver Salt Lake and
San Francisco by this same mode Of transit,
industriously backing boots at his stop
ping-off places and sensibly buying postal
notes with his extra money. which he mail
ed to himself at Brooklyn. He had a good
time on the Coast, and made his return trip
in the same way he went west' only he
came by way of Ell Paso. He reached
Washington this morning and will leave for
his home in Brooklyn tonight. He will
have ten or fifteen dollars in postal notes
awaiting his coming. and will take up
schooling again next week. George Is six
teen years old, lives with his father and
mother, who gave their consent to his
making the novel trip, and says the United
States is the biggest and best country on
earth, because he's been clean across it.
