In view of the fact that an opportunity

deavoring to abolish another existing tele

systems.
These are the lines of the Postal Tele--

stretched along the south side of the road
in question, while the poles of the former
are along the northern edge of the high
way. The proposed extension of the Co
lumbia Railway eastward along the Ben
ming Road TO the District line, as au
thorized by act of Congress, approved
June Is last will be along the northern
edge OF the Benning Road over pract
cally the same ground as that occupied
by the poles of the Postal Telegraph Com
pany. The railway company is anxious to
commence work on its extension in the
near future, but will not be able to do so
until the poles of the Postal Company
have been moved.
The District engineer officials are OPP
posed 10 the erection OF several lines ON
the street as far as the rule can be rea
sonably observed. 1t was for this reason
that they decided to make an effort to
have both lines consolidated when the
change of the Postal wires is necessitated
by the operations on the electric railway.

companies for the purpose of effecting an
arrangement whereby the wires of both
companies might be stretched on the poles
of the Western Union Company. This is
done on the Benning Bridge across the
Eastern Branch, and the Commissioners see
no reason why it cannot be done on such
portions of the Benning Road as will
interfere with the construction of the Co
lumba trolley extension.
In order to effect the consolidation, the
Commissioners yesterday wrote to the Pos
tai Telegraph Gable Company, requesting
that corporation to remove its poles from
the north side of Benning Road to the
south side to take the place of the cx-
isting poles of the Western Union Tele-
graph Company. The Postal concern has
also been requested to grant the Western
Union people the right to place its four
wires on the new line. The Commits
sioners have asked the company to do the
work at the earliest possible date, as the
railway company is now engaged in grad
ing its route.
