of Engineer Commissioner for
the District.

Col. John Biddle, the Engineer Com
bootblack named Charles S. Warren,
who shines shoes at the southwest cor
Fer of Fourteenth Street and Rhode
Island Avenue northwest. 1t appears
that Mrs. Mary Fitzpatrick recently
wrote to the Commissioners, complain
ing that the congregation of persons
around this stand was in the nature of
nuisance, and she protested against
the further occupation Of the place by
the bOotblack
The matter was referred to the Eli
gineer Department, and Mr.. A. l..
Thomas, inspector of the department,
paid visit to the locality. and recon-
mended that Warren.s permit be re-
voked on the grounds alleged by Mrs.
Fitzpatrick
Colonel Biddle took up the matter and
has forwarded the papers to his col

of the stand is cobbler's shop. The
owner of the premises lives above. with
an entrance on the Rhode Island Ave-
rue side, and windows above overlook

Il inspected it myself and found the
bootblack a nice appearing colored man
with only one leg. and he seems de-
sirous of doing all that is necessary to
prevent the stand becoming nuisance.
If people are prevented from congre-
eating around the stand. except for the
purpose of having their shoes shined-
which could easily be done by the
police-it does not seem that there
should be any nuisance more than that
which would be occasioned by having a
