ability OF refitting and remodeling the In
terror of the library building so as to
make 1t more suitable for the purposes OF
a library and fire-proof for the preserva-
tion OF the valuable books and pamphlets,
and does not consider the estimates sub
mitted of s63 100 for the alterations and
OF $500 for removing and returning the
books as excessive.
An appropriation OF $500 is recommend
ed to refit the old army service barracks
into commissary store house.
-Four thousand two hundred dollars Is
recommended for a porch to be erected
around the cavalry barracks.
The cemetery was found to be In good

preparation OF $40 for 3 keeper TO pre-
serve the same in better repair.

The Local Street Railway blockade.
To the Editor of The Evening Star:
The residents of Greater Washington
would still have further reason to COM
mend the course of your public-spirtted
paper If you would promptly and visor-
ously urge upon the Senate the desirability
Of passing the bill, now pending before 1t,
amending the charter of the Capital Trac-
tion Company. This bill contains much
that the public demanded, and little that
the railroad asked. They asked for several
important and valuable extensions, and the
two congressional committeeA in their wis
dom, struck them out and In lieu thereof
ir serted several amendments demanded by
the citizens. the two principal amend
ments being for an extension eastward
along Pennsylvania avenue, and also that
the railroad company should carry its pas
sengers over its entire route both in the
District and Maryland for one fare. These
two amendments. together with the exten-
sion south and west of the State Depart
ment constitute the principal part of the
bill now pending, and which Is being de-
layed by some unseen force.
The alleged agreement between the chair
man of the Senate District committee and
prominent senator that the Capital Trac-
tion bill should not be considered until
after the lexington and Belt Lire bills
" ere safely passed is an open secret 1t is
now SAIL, suD-ToSa, tHat the iHHuenCe CT
the Capital Traction Company's great rival
is being felt, and to insure fair play it is
maintained that the traction company's bill
should not be put upon it's final passage
until the interests of the Metropolitan COM
pany are favorably considered.
These rumors reflect upon the Impair
tiality and fairness Of the Senate The
Senate should not allow itself to be thus
forced into false position. The bill con-
tains much of great interest to the public
and little of special benefit to the road. The
duty Of the Senate Is to the public In this
matter. The bill has been read and de-
bated, and will pass IN two minutes If the
Senate will listen to the voice of the public
and not to the contentious Of the rivals and
competitors of the Capital Traction Com
pany. GREATER WASHINGTON
