SERIES OF EXCURSIONS.
Chesapeake and Ohio r. r.. to Bring
Visitors to Washington.

The Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad Com
pany has arranged for the establishment of
steamship line between Newport News
and Porto Rico. The Chesapeake and Ohio.
with the approval of the other lines compos-
ing the Central Passenger Association, has
also completed plans for series of excur-
sions to Washington. The arrangement
made is that reduced rate tickets will be
sold from all points within the territory of
the association on certain dates The boun-
diaries of the Central Passenger Association
cover all that territory lying west of an
imaginary line drawn through Buffalo,
Pittsburg ard Wheeling, W. Va, extending
west to Chicago and st. Louis, south to
the Ohio river, but including that portion
of northern Kentucky which is traversed
by the lines of the Chesapeake and Ohio
railroad and north into Canada.
This is the most populous territory of
the Unite 'tates, outside of the states ly
ing east of the Allegheny mountains, and
it is from these that it is expected a very
large number of persons will take advan
tage of the opportunities offered to visit the
national capital.

The Way to Clear Away Snow.

To the Editor OF The Evening Star:
I observe in Fridays Star a communica-
ton signed Subscriber suggesting that
in case of a heavy snowfall leach owner
or occupant of a dwelling clean space in
the middle of the street Immediately in
front of their respective dwellings," etc etc
To my mind this is exactly the wrong way
TO go about the matter. A much better,
and in my opinion the only effective meth
cd, is to pile up the snow in the middle Of
the street-eXcept on those occupied by
railway tracks-by clearing away a space
say ten feet wide along the curb stone on
either side. This will enable wagons and
carriages to deliver their loads on both
sides OF the street. where desired and at
the same time permit the water from melt
ed snow to be drained by the cutters direct
ly into the sewers.
This plan, OF course. presupposes that the
sidewalks shall be cleared of snow first
These things being done and the street
crossings provided with clean pathways
as they always should be,-and the problem
of comfortable travel, both on foot and in
vehicles, on the occasion of heavy snow
falls is solved

Thornton drove along the car tracks of
the Columbia cable road on New York ave-

WHEN a car approached he had to pull
aside In doing so his cart went on the

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
An article which was regarded by your
readers as simply an item of information
for the public, concerning the price of coal,
appeared In The Star of the 18th instant
In high dudgeon one Justice" character
ICES this as IAN advertising dodge" He
says that for more than twelve years he
has been in the coal business for profit;
yet he tells US with the same pen that there
is no profit in it. In his excitement he for
gets to explain why he has remained in
profitless business all this time. The pre-
vailing price of white ash coal, delivered,
has been 50 per ton. Surprising the cost of
delivery to be 10 cents, the price at the
yard would be $3.50. A dealer informs me
that there are twenty-seven bushels to the
ton, and that the uniform price to the poor
and other small buyers at the yards has
been % cents per bushel, which, it will be
observed, produces a profit of not less than
81 ID per ton. At 30 cents per bushel, which
some have eXtorted during the period of
distress, the profit was 50 per ton, and the
still unsated greed that has hawked 1t
through the streets at IS cents per bushel
has realized s1575 advance on the utmost
estimated cost. Has Justice anything
more to say? Here is an opportunity for
him to make himself interesting.

that a saloon keeper is making a hard
fight to secure a license for a new place.
He said the matter now practically rests
on the construction which may be put on

they appear in the present license law. If
a place occupied by the Salvation Army is
decided to be house of religious wor-
snip, then the license cannot be granted.
AT present the matter is before Attorney
