CONTINUOUS RAIN.

Predictions That Present Conditions
Will Last Until Tomorrow.
Pedestrians who chanced to be upon the
streets very early this morning were treat
ed to a decidedly wintry aspect. A slight
rain had fallen just before dawn, and upon
reaching the thoroughly chilled pavements
had frozen, forming a thin and very slip
perry coating of ice over the entire surface.
The ice was transparent, and the side
walks seemed to be only wet. AS a result
of the icy coating there were many anus
ing incidents during the morning and not
few bad falls. Horses that were not
rough shod had difficult time in navigat-
ing the thoroughfares.
AS the morning wore on, however and
the thermometer continued to rise the ice
melted. and by the time the Office rush
was on the streets the treacherous condt-
tions Of the earlier day had gone.
Washington Is being treated today to the
first really hard rain for many weeks. The
weather up to this time has been excep-
tionally fine and consequently there is
hardly a complaint to be heard anywhere
from the thoroughly wet pedestrians.
According to the weather bureau officials
the rain will continue tonight and tomor-
row morning. During the night and early
hours Of the morning there may be oc-
casional fiurries of snow intermingled with
the rain. A colder area Is creeping in from
the west, however, and with the drop in
temperature predicted for tomorrow after
noon there will come blue skies again and
probably some chilly winds.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
RICHMOND. Va. January 21.-The re-
port that historic old st. Johns Church in
this city is to be sold to make room for a
commercial block has aroused a storm of
indignation among the members of that
church, and many Of the leading business
men Of the city protest against the publica-
ton. The senior warden of the church.
Capt. Cyrus Bossieux was asked what
ground there was for such publicat ton,
and he promptly and vehementiy said the
statement was simply falsehood from be-
ginning to end. The church could not be
sold except by special act of the general
assembly Of Virginia, and ii Is doubtful II
there Is a man in the state who would have
the temerity to suggest such a thing.
The ground on Which the church stands
was given to the congregation by William
Byrd, jr., the founder of Richmond" said
Capt. Bossieux. land has been continuously
occupied for nearly one hundred and nifty
years 1t was In that church that Patrick
Henry uttered the famous speech that fred
the whole of the American continent api
resulted in the freedom of the country. 1t
Is the cradle OF liberty. and the man who
would undertake to attempt to put a van
dal hand on it would never live to tell what
happened to him.
'"The church does not owe a cent to any
one on earth for any cause. In the yard
surrounding the church are the remains CT
many who were celebrated for deeds CT
va1or and craftsmanship in the days during
and following the war of Independence.
There Is no truth in the report, for the
ground is hallowed and the people of Rich
mond would not for moment tolerate the
suggestion of selling the church or the
ground or the changing Of the building as 1t
has come down to U.S.

solute change Of the existing general law

sented to Congress means a general reor-

ment. The purpose OF the proposed changes
