CITIZENS DISCUSS
NEEDS OF DISTRICT
Street Changes in Connection
With Union Depot.
TO ACCOMMODATE THE PUBLIC
Attention Called to Statement of Senator
Mcmillan That Larger Appropriation
Must Be Made for Sewer Extension
Legislators Congratulated.

The East Washington Citizens Asso-
ciat;on moi last night at the residence oil
the president. Mr.. Thomas w. smith, oio
East Capitol Street
An interesting discussion followed the
report of the executive cori1ittee on the
union station project, in which certain
suggestions were presented relative to the
change OF streets from the plans pro-
posed in the bill now pending in Congress
The chief change proposed by the ;ou-
mittee Is the closing of ii Street, ana Hs
divergence around the station to f street
to pass in front of the station, ana prp-
ceed northward on Massachusetts Avenue
TO Fourth Street, there returning to ITS
present line. 1t was the opinion OF tie
committee that the arrangement OF the
street car line along this route would best
accommodate the public. 1t was argued By
the committee that the proposed closing
of II Street would enable the railroad
company to erect the station on consid-
erabIy lower grade than at present pro-
posed. thus greatly lessening the expense
to the city. The committee also announced
that this arrangement of streets and EAR
lines has the approval of the Northeast
Citizens Association.
Extension of Sewers.
President Smith called the attention of
the association to the published reports
in the papers that Senator Mcmillan had
said that larger appropriation must be
made than had been named in the House
hill for the extension OF the sewer sys-
lem. Mr.. Smith reviewed somewhat at
length the plans for the extension OF
sewers, showing that large sum OF
money would be needed and great
amount of labor employed to complete the
system, and he congratulated the members
| OF the association upon the fact that
| Senator Mcmillan and others Senators
arc alive to the needs of the District
along this line.
| The resignation OF Mr.. ]. ID. Croissant
as chairman Of the committee on parks
| and spaces was announced and President
Smith appointed Mr.. Fred G. Caldron to
| the vacancy.
Location of Workhouse.
| Attention was called to the fact that
the new wo:khouse for males, now In
process of erection. stands In the line OF
massachusetts, Avenue, blocking with q
public structure the extension Of tha,
thoroughfare across the Anacostia River
to the eastern section Of the District
President Smith stated that the plans
of the Park Commission included the rec
lamation of the flats and that within a
comparatively biief tire the extension o:
| Massachusetts Avenue across the river
would become live question.

tions prevailing III the jail and workhouse

tion.
$4,000 for Post Exchanges.
For post exchanges at military posts,

an appropriation of $4,000. For the pur-
chase and Improvement and preservation
of the battlefields OF Balls Bluff and the
soldiers burying place there $4,000 is ap-
propriated.
The committee also recommends an ap-
preparation OF S5O0,00 for buildings for
the new engineer school to be established
In this city In addition to the Sio,QOO
which the House set apart for their equip
ment.
An amendment was inserted providing
that no enlisted man who has passed ex-
animation for appointment as second lieu
tenant shall be commissioned until he has
taken such course OF instruction as the
President may deem necessary to deter
mine his fitness for that grade.
The committee struck out the para
graph inserted by the House giving the
Secretary of War power to restore to ae-
tive duty any officer on the retired list
who is found by a retiring board compe-
tent for duty.
Increased Pay for Insular Troops.
The committee increased the pay Of
| commissioned officers serving beyond the
| boundaries OF the continent 10 per cent

yond the pay within the United State:
| proper In time of peace, with a provist
that the increase is to be counted from

| States to the date of return.

Judge Fishers opinion was oral and

sion handed down by Judge Tally in the

said: -

players at any time. while the players are
absolutely bound for one year to the Ma
ticnal League. Such contracts cannot be

tution of the United States and of Mis-
souri,. because they interfere with per-
sonal liberty"

preme court.
