TO PROVIDE MORE FUNDS.
Bills of Importance to the District
introduced in Congress.

Bills were introduced in both houses OF
Congress yesterday having for their OBJ
ject the relief OF the District Government
from financial difficulties pending the re-
turns from the assessments for the street
extension cases. Congress in past years
has put upon the District the entire eX-
pense Of the extension of certain streets,
requiring the use OF about 81 600 600 in
the aggregate of the District money. This
has left a shortage of money with which
TO carry on the current expenses. Last
the District Commissioners were cut down
to the lowest notch. SO that the expenses
should not exceed the revenues. Con
gress each year cut down the apprOpria-
tions still more, so that the departments
have been oyerworked and embarrassed
by shortage Of funds.
This year the Commissioners pursued a
different plan. They sent to Congress
estimates allowing for current expenses
and such additions to the present force
Of clerks as the prompt discharge Of busi-
ness demands. II was explained TO the
House Committee on Appropriations that
IL was not just to the District to expect
the departments to go on as they were
three years ago, because the available
funds of the District had been depleted
by payments for street extension. The
members Of the committee were told that
it was not fair to keep the usefulness of
the schools in allegiance or to hold down
the police department to its present
strength or TO stop the natural growth
Of the fire department by trimming eX-
penditures to suit the revenues received
from taxes and other sources.
Therefore in order that the estimates
of the Commissioners might remain prac-
tically unchanged 1t is understood that the
bills introduced yesterday were framed.
II passed they will authorize the advance
Of money from the United States Treas
ury for the current expenses Of the Dis
trict until such time as the returns from
the street extension assessments shall
reimburse the Government. The bills do
not contemplate the payment for any of
the large improvements, such the Me
mortal Bridge, or even the rebuilding OF
Long Bridge. The money to be advanced
is for actual use in running the municipal
government, and 10 take the place tenn
porarily OF the money diverted several
years ago to the extension of streets

where she would be today. II was a
perfectly possible thing. The men owned
the slaves, and though the negroes might
not be very efficient they could be forced
to be tolerably so. The Southern planter

have saved the cost of transporting the
