FACE HoUsEBREAKING CHARGE
'oiored Lads Alleged TO Have En-
tered Chfnaman,, Laundry.

Two diminutive colored boys sat in No.
station last might until the cab from
the House of Detention arrived to carry
them away. The lads are charged with
nousebreaking, and a Chinaman. whose
name is Lee Sing, and who keeps a laun-
dry at 729 Eleventh Street northwest. will
probably appear against them.
Norman Fields and Edward Mitchell.
each under fifteen years of age, are the
prisoners. Special officer Thomas and
Policeman LaDow caught the boys red
handed, it is claimed, while they were en-
gagged in the robbery of the money draw
er at Lee Sings place last night.
1t was stated that Mitchell and Fields
had broken into the laundry with q chisel
and file and hatchet. forcing rear door.
while Lee Sing was out. The policemen
found the boys in the laundry, it was
stated. and took them to the station
On being searched, about $3.50 was found
on one of the lads. which he said had been
given him. Both boys afterward said they
had been in the laundry, according to po-
lice reports.

MEAT TRADE WITH GERMANY.
Consul Albert Reports a Great De.
crease Since 1895.

Consul Talbot J. Albert reports to the
State Department from Brunswick. Ger
many. that the imports of American
meats into Germany have greatly de-
creased since they reached their highest
point in the year 1898.
Since the German prohibitary law,
which went into force on October 1, 1900.
the importation of sausage and canned
meat has entirely ceased. On the other
hand. the imports OF bacon and other
kinds OF port, with the exception of hams,
show an increase during the year 1900 and
the year 1901.
BY law which was ordered to be put
into force April l. 1902, an official in
spection of all imported meat will take
place in Germany. and a miccroscopial ex-
animation in America will no longer be
looked upon as a condition for import.
That this law will be enforced In April
does not seem likely. At the prese-.. time
the Bundesrath is busy with the details
for carrying the law into effect.

Building Inspector Says

Over Old Homes.
NEW PLAN ECONOMICAL
Erection of Buildings in This city
Quite II Different Problem
Thnu Elsewhere.

There are more houses for rent in
Washington this winter than in any
previous year that l can recall
This remark was made on Saturday TO a
Times reporter by an inspector in the
District service. whose duties take him
to all PARTS of the city. His observation
is that a considerable number OF dwell
ings are now vacant which were occupied
at this time in former years.
The inspector is engaged in the Build
ing Department. and was asked his views
in explanation Of the fact that rent cards
appear in so many houses. His reply was
to the effect that the multiplication of
apartment buildings and their occupancy
as fast as completed is beginning to be
felt by agents and owners who have
houses TO rent
No Fewer People Than Formerly.
Our informant said that II was clear
the population had not decreased and
that there were no fewer families 10 be
provided with homes. His view was that
they were finding them in the fats which
have been going up with great rapidity for
the past three years.
Attention was called to the advantages
which the fat possesses over the ordi-
nary house. In the majority of them, the
inspector said. the rental of a suite of
rooms carries with ii heat. light, cleo
trio fans in summer. elevators, luxurious
bath, and other appointments not found
at the same cost in the single house.
These things, he said, afforded great in
ducements to families to occupy 4 fiat
and he thought the managers of the
apartment houses had shown great
sagacity by way of erticing the tenants
OF the old-fashoned landlord.

WAREHOUSES; NOWFOR
RENT IN WASHINGTON

Building Inspectors Office the plans Of
hfty apartments. At least twenty of these
were said to be large ones Some of them
have been erected and practically finish
ed, being now ready for occupancy.
1t was stated that there are about 400
apartments already occupied. and that for
the past three years they have multiplied
at the rate of 100 per annum.
Thus was shown the drain upon house
tenants, and the opinion was expressed
that when some sixty of these buildings
now in various stages OF construction are
completed and occupied, the house hunter
in Washington will find plenty of dwell
ings suited to his desires.
a Dearth of Houses.
The Inspector stated that in his opinion
the investment OF money in flats to so
large an extent grew out of an actual
dearth of houses. He explained that when
building materials increased in price
about three years aco the building of
houses received something of a setback.
Rents increased with the influx of popu-
lation, and landlords grew careless about
repairs.
The building problem, it was explained,
is quite different in Washington from
what it is elsewhere. For instance,
streets, avenues, and parking take up a
per cent of the land. Houses and other
structures occupy only 40 per cent. In
addition TO this, the building regulations
are exacting and the rules with refer
enCe to drainage and water connections
add good deal to the cost OF the most
ordinary building.
The Inspector stated that the conditions
mentioned had always made Washington a
city of comparatively expensive houses,
and always would do so.
The Apartment House.
To utilize real estate TO the best ad-
vantage our informant thought the apart
ment house fitted in naturally. By erect
ing a high building and grouping together
the largest number of homes in the small
est space the cost of the lot was reduced
to the minimum, and it was suggested
that it was only necessary to add such ac-
cessories as heat, light, elevators, and
other improvements to make the fiat an
ideal place of abode.
Permanent Effect of the Flat.
The Inspector was asked for his views
upon the permanent effect of the apart
ment house on real estate values and the
rate of rent.
He stated that the fat had evidently
come to stay, and he thought that, while
the building of apartments had been a
little too active, there would still be
plenty of investment in them.
1t was stated that the result might be
very far reaching upon the houses held
for rental. The poorer class of them
would become vacant and stay so. Com
petition would naturally bring down
rents. and the time would probably soon
arrive when it would be necessary to re-
pair existing houses extensively before
permanent tenants could be secured
The opinion WAS expressed that the past
cxactions of landlords would cease and
that paint. paper plumbing. and heating
apparatus would soon be kept in better
repair.
