was there TO choose between the two that
only those on the official boats were able
TO credit Harvard with the advantage
which was really hers. When the rush of
the start had given way to the four-mile
gait both crews were pulling thirty-six to

river sped the shells with Harvard a frac-

in both boats was superb. AT the quarter

DanKerOus,

In moving the telegraph poles on G. street
near 18th, wrote Mr.. O. G.. Staples TO the
District Commissioners several days ago,
the wires were brought directly over the
fire escapes and close to the windows of
the Riggs House. LAS they run now said
Mr.. Staples, they are source of annoy
ance and danger, especially in case Of fire.
Please that they are removed to a
proper and safe distance"
The matter was referred by the Commits
soners to the electrical department and
Mr.. Chas. G.. Harris, an inspector In that
department. informed them that the United
States government maintains line of poles
and wires on the south side of G. street run
ming east from the treasury building. In
moving two of these poles between 14th and
18th streets south of their original positions
the wires were brought nearer the Riggs
House and, owing to the weak Condition of
the weSternmost pole, which sustainS an
angle In the wires at this point, the latter
came in contact with the fire escapes, as
complained of.
Officials of the United States, Mr. Harris
says, tried TO remedy the defect by shifting
their wire-rack to the extreme northeastern
corner of the treasury building roof, but as
the pole continues 10 buckle, the wires will
still tend to approach the Riggs House.
Mr.. Harris, therefore, recommended that
the superintendent of public buildings and
grounds be requested to replace the above
mentioned pole with a new one, capable of
sustaining the wire-pull, and to move IT
nearer 18th street to a location to be desig-
mated by an inspector from the District
electrical department, the new pole to be
guyed to the Chesapeake and Potomac Tel
ephone Companys pole on the north side of
G. street between 14th and 10Th streets
The Commissioners have the matter un-
der consideration. and 1t Is probable that
the officer In charge of public buildings and
grounds Will be requested as recommended
by Inspector Harris.
