heat And POWER co.
BILL Is DISAPPROTED
Commissioners Report to
Congress on the Measure.

The District Commissioners TO-DAY. sent
TO Congress a report 81 the bill Ito in
corporate the Columbia Heat and Power
Company. OF the District of Columbia.
and to manufacture for heat and gas
purposes, TO construct. maintain. and
operate gas manufacturing plants, and
to lay necessary street mains and con-
nections for the distribution Of gas for
heat and power purposes in and through
out the District Of Columbia"
The main object Of this bill is to pro-
vide heat and power throughout the Dis
trict. 1t is urged for it that the present
smoke nuisance would be materially
abated if the proposed company is put
in operation. Beyond this it is said that
the price of gas would be reduced Of
the measure. the Commissioners say:
The great disadvantage viii be the
tearing up of practically every street
IN the city, and, although this will be
done at the expense Of the company,
il will cause considerable inconvenience
to the public while the work is in
progress
IN view of the inconvenience which
would be caused by tearing up OF the
streets. and for other reasons, the
Commissioners do not recommend ia
vo-able action upon the bill"
If the mea sure IS 10 pass Congress,
however. the Commissioners suggest
certain notifications.

the following announcement in regard

Admiral Crowninshield has disap-
proved of the opinion and recommended
zion Of the court of inquiry, where it
is adverse to the officers. on the ground
that the evidence is insufficient
Pending the receipt of all the papers
in the case Secretary Moody will not
take final action in the cases Whether
he viii uphold the recommendation of
Admiral CrowninshieId and allow the
officers - go free without court-martial,
or Whether ne viii adopt the views of

Subject.

The first official action taken by the
members or officers of the Grand Army
looking to the securing of legislation
that will make it possible for the cor
nerstone of the Memorial Bridge to be
laid during the forthcoming encamp-
ment Of the Grand Army of the Repub-

dated at the rooms of the board of Wis

Dear Sir: beg to call your attention
to the fact that there is very general

the Republic that Congress may enact
legislation at the present session so that
it viii be possible to lay the corner
stone OF the proposed memorial bridge
at the coming meeting Of the National
Encampment Of the Grand Army Of the
Republic to be held in Washington on
the 6th OF October next.
While do not speak for the Presi-
dent of the United States, am satisfied
that such action on the part of Congress
would be heartily approved.
In all probability It will be the last
time that the Grand Army of the Repub-
lie will hold an encampment in the Cap
itol City, and. as It viii furnish very
large part of the sentiment so much de-
sired in the projection of such a memoir
iaI, 1t would be a matter of regret if the
corners zone could not be laid in the
presence Of so many surviving veterans
of the great war for the preservation of
the Union

BIG MEN EMPLOYED
AS MESSENGER BOYS
Wouldn't That Jar You?" Asks Leader
of Striking MeTcuries.

NEW YORK, June Messenger boys
OF the main Office of the Postal Tele-
graph Company. 253 Broadway. had their
picket lines out yesterday to look after
the boys who were taking their places.
There might have been a free-for-alI
fight had not the new messengers been
selected for their size and strength.
This prcaution on the part of the
managers scattered CONSERVATION
among the striking boys, who lined
themselves around the side entrance to
the building &c prevent new boys from
taking their places
The picket line gazed upon the stall
waTt forms of the newcomers with awe
and chagrin.
Great Scott" cried the leader.
''dey've got de biggest men in Greater
New York to run errands. Wouldn I
that jar you2''
Later in the day the boys on the pick
ct line created such a disturbance that
a special detachment Of police from the
Church Street station was sent to the
scene to preserve order.
The boys say their grievance is over
new rule enforced by the manage
ment.
We used to be given eight and ten
messages at a clip to 90 out with, eI-
planned one of them, but the company
has now decided to give US only two or
three messages at a time We only get
cents a message for delivery. This
means that We are lucky now to earn 81
day, while we used to earn $3.50 some
days That's why We are out on strike"
The messengers claim they have more
than 100 Postal Telegraph runners al
ready on strike. thirty Of them being
from the main Office. and that the Amer
lean District Telegraph boys will join
them The managers declare they have
suffered 10 inconvenience.
