G b. Hunt. the Computing Engineer,
has submitted the estimate Of cost for
LAYING the sidewalk and setting and re-
setting the curbing on both sides Of Co
lumbis Road. between Eighteenth Street
and Florida Avenue. The recommenda-
tion has received the approval OF Capt
II. .. Newcomer and Of the Commission
ers. II is as follows:
1t is hereby recommended that the fol-
lowing work be ordered under the pro-
visions Of the law governing assessment
work: Set new granite curb and lay ce-
ment sidewalk on the west side of Co
lumbia Road and Connecticut Avenue eX-
tended from lie Roy Place TO California

5000, 10 be assessed against the property
abutting on the east side Of said Colum-
bia Road between the limits named.
This work was advertised March l.
1s, g. and 80. 1901 and at the public hear
ing held April 3. 1901, no objections were
received, but 4 written protest dated
April /, 1901. and received April 8. 1901, is
enclosed herewith in relation TO that por-
tion OF the work on the west side OF the
street, between Nineteenth and Baltimore
Streets.
''Tlle recommendation for this work in
spite Of the protest referred to is made
because the condition Of this walk is so
entirely inferior and altogether unsuited
TO the importance Of the thoroughfare
and the public needs that its replacement
with a modern walk. which viii afford
the use of the fun width Of the public
space available for pedestrian travel. is
Indicated in the strongest manner in the
interest Of the public health safety, and
comfort. Probably no more easily justi-
fled case for the initiative on the part of
the Commissioners exists in the District
than in this very locality"

Bitter Feeling Since the Burn

Teavenworh. June 17.-Considerable ex-
element has been created here by the up
earthing of what appears to be deep
laid scheme of the negroes of Leaven
worth to arm themselves with revolvers
purchased from soldiers of Fort Leaven-
worth
Seven Of these weapons had been pur-
chased by well known negroes before the
matter came to the notice of the United
States authorities 1t seems that the ne
groes had circulated the report among the
soldiers at Fort Leavenworth that they
would buy up all the government revolt
vers offered, and several of the soldiers
took the opportunity of disposing of the

sistance OF Private 7. J. Cocnran:s Socnr
ran, acting under the instructions q
Lieutenant Deem, came to LeavenWorth
a few days ago and sold a revolver to
William Montgomery, a negro VINO IS
known about the city at Moot It was
during the sale Of this revolver that Pri-
waite Cochran succeeded in learning ali
about the scheme the negroes have on
foot for arming themselves. Several ne
groes were present when Cochran made
the deal with Montgomery, and they told
of other revolvers that had been pur-
chas
Just as soon as possible Private Coch-
ran reported the sale to Lieutenant Deem,
and a warrant was sworn out for the ar
rest Of Montgomery He was arraigned
Saturday before United States Commls-
sioner Bond and was bound over to the
United States grand jury. He gave bond
in the sum of S50Q-
Two other negroes who were impli-
Gated with Montgomery appeared before
Commissioner Bond. They are James Chi
vers and Sam Montgomery. Each had a
revolver that he had purchased from the
cavalrymen. These were turned over to
Lieutenant Deem. The men will not be
prosecuted. So far seven revolvers have
been recovered. There are about sixteen
still out The soldiers who sold the re-
volvers viii be prosecuted by the military
officials.
The unearthing of the scheme of the
negroes to arm themselves has caused
much comment on the streets. Conserve
tive men say that the race feeling which
was stirred up by the Alexander burning
has not died out, and that it is possible
that an outbreak may come at any time.
