Singular Condition of Affairs DeyeI-
ODed in Long Meadows.


Oped In Long Meadows.
Seldom M Ely of 80 street northwest
has called the attention Of the District
Commissioners to a perplexing condition of
affairs in regard to property located on
King street near Trinidad avenue In King
subdivision of Long Meadows. The Com
missioners have referred the matter to the
attorney for the District for an investiga-
ton and opinion, and his decision Is await
ed with a good deal of interest Mr. Ely
states that he is owner of lot thrty-one in
the subdivision above referred to and that
his property has been rendered absolutely
useless through the improper survey and
location of King street. H. B. LOCKER, the
district surveyor, has reported to the Com
missioners that Mr. Ely's statements are
correct in regard to the difference between
the records and the facts on the ground.
King street is about twenty feet north OF
it's recorded position, and has been almost
wholly built up on both sides on this wrong
basis
seems to rest upon D. B. Carpenter. who
originally laid out the street. Mr.. LOCKER
says there Is room enough from the south
end Of Kings subdivision to the Mount
Olivet road to put In all deed and subdivis-
ion fronts, but by reason Of the error too
much ground Is given to Kings subdtv-
ision south of King street and too little
to the north. Mr.. LOCKER believes that
all the houses north Of King street. are
located by measurement from he wrong
position of King street. Hence the pinch
at the north end, where Mr.. Ely loses all
of the lot upon which he wishes to build.
The office of the surveyor Is powerless to
remedy this condition, so far as it now ap-
pears, and SO the matter has been referred
to the attorney to be cleared up.

Admiral Bradford Appointed.

Admiral Dewey and his associates on the
general board of the navy have requested
Secretary Long to appoint Admiral Brad
ford chief of the naval bureau and equip
ment, as additional member of the
board, and the Secretary has issued the
order of appointment. This results from
the careful attention which the Dewey
board is at present giving to the establish
ment Of foreign coalng stations for our
navy. Admiral Bradford has made a spe-
cial study of that branch of work. and has
gathered much material showing the for
eign points most desirable for coaling sta
lions. Some of these are at points in the
West Indies and along the South American
coast others in the outlying islands of
the Atlantic and Pacific. and considerable
information has been gathered as 20 points

mentioned reports that the crops in ST.
IBERIA appear to be nearly total failure,
adding that in the districts of Minusinsk
and Kransnoyarsk almost the entire growth
of cereals has perished as the result of a
two months drouth. and that in the Trans
Baikal country the condition Of the crops
was almost equally bad. Minusinsk and
Kransnoyarsk are two Of the five districts
composing the Siberian province of Yeni-
seisk, which occupies the greater part Of
the country drained by the Yenisei river
In 1899, when the Siberian crop was above
an average, these two districts produced
about ~ per cent of the wheat and rye
grown in the four Siberian provinces for
which crop reports are published. It does
not appear from the dispatch whether the
reports in regard to the failure of the
crops in Siberia as whole are based on
information from various parts of that
vast territory or whether they rest on an
inference drawn from the conditions pre-
vailing in the two Yenisean districts above
named and in Trans-Baikalia-
The same dispatch mentions seven of the
twelve districts composing the province of
Perm, in the eastern part Of European
Russia, stating that in these districts the
condition of affairs Is almost as deplorable
as in the Siberian districts named above
I. Is further stated that in the provinces
Of the Volga region the peasantry are al
ready practically destitute having sold the
cattle and horses they could not feed and
consumed nearly their whole scanty stocks
of food and seed grain" Even in the part
of southern Russia. where the crop is. on
the whole. said to be fair average, there
