BURIAL IN PoTTER's FIELD.
Robert washinEton's Body Likely to
BE Inferred There.

The body Of Robert Washington, the
nineteen-year-old colored boy, who was
drowned a short distance below the Chain
Bridge Sunday afternoon, and whose
body was recovered Monday afternoon by
the crew of the police boat, will be buried
in the potter's field today If no friends
put in an appearance in the meantime.
Washington was a native OF Manassas,
Va, and had lived in that State all Of
his life. Recently he had been employed
as a laborer in one of the stone quarries
on the upper river. On Sunday. with some
companions. ne was playing about some
Of the barges that are moored to the Vir
ginia shore. when he lost his footing and
falling into the water, was drowned be-
fore help could reach him.
The body was recovered Monday by the
crew of the police boat with great diff
Guilty owing to the swtftness of the cur
rent at that place and the Jagged rCcBs
in the stream. The body was delivered to
Magistrate Donaldson, of Alexandria
County, but instead of burying It, II is
said, that he abandoned IT on ;he river
shore. The police authorities sent the
patrol boat up the river yesterday and
brought the body to this city.
A great deal Of comment has been oc-
caSioncd by the failure of the Virginia
authorities to bury their own dead. 1t is
further said. that this is not the first
time that they have been guilty OF sim
liar dereiiction of duty.

report that greatly startled Mrs. Dicker-
son. who exclaimed, Look" As Mrs
Dober looked, her companion jumped to
her feet, and sprang from the car. She
feH apparently on her head and when as
sistance reached her she was unconscious
and remained so until death Despite ev-
eTything that was done for her. she dieo
within half an hour after being admitted
TO the Emergency Hospital.

Mary and Catherine Welsh. through
their attorney, recently addressed the
Commissioners, asking to be informed
why it became necessary to raise the
grade of Jackson Alley, in square 61I
They inform the Commissioners that their
house was built about fifteen years ago,
and that at that time the proper grade
was given them ~ the District Surveyor
or the Engineers office. They state that
since the erection of the house the grade
has been changed twice, with the result
that their house is now about two feet
below grade. Besides this for the change
of grade and the Improvement of the al
ley they have been charged S1679i.
The matter was referred to the surface
division of the Engineers office, and c.
b. Hunt. the Computing Engineer, has
now reported submitting a plat showing
the surface of the old cobble pavement
and the new grade followed at the time
the alley was paved with asphalt block
very recently.
THE change in the grade of the alley"
says Mr.. Hunt, was necessitated by the
fact that the original grade seriously
at fault in falling from the parking line
toward the building line, which is against
the consistent practice of this office, for
many years past, and which was modified
in this, as in all other cases where mod
ern pavements are laid. This will explain
the necessity for the change of grade.
NO record is found in this office that
any grade was ever furnished for this
building. although it is not doubted that
nation, though not, as far as can learn,
from the proper official. The change of
grade was made as small as practicable,
and while the necessity for it was regret
ted. it was believed to be unavoidable.
and it is not thought that any considera-
BILE damage resulted to the abutting prop
erty.''
After making the above report the case
was returned to the Computing Engineer
for information as to the date of the COM
pletion of the work, and that of the SUBJ
mitting of the bills These Mr.. Hunt fur
nished and stated that the only protest
received In connection with the work was
a communication in relation to the re-
moval of a curb and sidewalk which for
merly existed in the alley and which was
dispensed with when the alley was paved.
With this information in hand the En-
gineer Commissioner yesterday recon-
mended that the Misses Welsh be inform
ed in accordance with the reports of the
Computing Engineer.
