NEW PAVEMENT REQUIRED.
Cost to Re Estimated by District En-
EineerinR Department..

After visiting the locality and personally
investigating the matter. Commissioner
Wight has recommended to his associates
that the engineer department be requested
to furnish an estimate of the cost of laying
a vitrified brick or concrete pavement to
replace the cobblestones on the east and
west sides of the Georgetown market If
this Improvement should be made, Mr.
Wight believes 1t would be advisable to
allow the country people who have been
occupying the sidewalks on Potomac street
to occupy those on the east and west sides
of the market. Such an arrangement Mr..
Wight has learned. would be satisfactory
to the farmers who sell their products at
