FOR THE SCHOOL CHILDREN
Suggestions Made to the District
Commissioner

Il. IL. Warner has written to the District
Commissioners making certain suggestions
with regard to school grounds and build
ings in the District. The first of the letters
suggests that where it is possible additional
yards be purchased for Fairgrounds around
school houses where the present space is
too limited, and where children are con-
seQuently forced to occupy the streets to
the great detriment and annoyance of chill
dren living IN the neighborhood, as well
as being dangerous to the children them
selves. In a second letter. addressed to
Commissioner Mcfarland, Mr.. Warner
suggests that vines be planted about the
school houses He says:
Permit me to call your attention to the
desirability of planting some suitable va
riety of vines around many of the school
houses of the city and county. 1 ride past
the Chevy Chase school house nearly every
day, and Its appearance would be very
greatly improved if not only vines but also
trees were planted. If this suggestion had
been acted upon when the school house was
built l am sure everybody would now be
much gratified. This work could be done
at very little cost by the parking commits
sion."
To these suggestions Commissioner Mac
farland has replied as follows:
81 appreciate your suggestions as to the
school buildings. 1t is now the policy of
the Commissioners to buy as much ground
possible for every new school building
possible the purchase of additional ground
for old school buildings. / shall lay
your letter in regard to the planting of
vines and trees around school buildings be-
fore the Engineer Commissioner, who has

COL. SANGER HERE.
The Acting Secretary Resumes His
Duties at the War Department.

Acting Secretary Sanger has returned to
Washington and resumed his duties at the
War Department. Col. Sanger was deeply
interested observer Of a part of the COM
bined army and navy maneuvers, which are
still in progress. but he felt that his official
position estopped him from the expression
OF any opinion as to where the victory lay.
Being an ardent champion of the crea-
ton Of national reserves for coast defense
purposes, Col. Sanger was particularly in
terested in watching the work of the mill
tiamen who are cooperating with the army
and navy forces in the maneuvers. He
spoke in terms of the highest praise of the
fine work of the Massachusetts militia regi-
ment to which alone, under the command
of lieutenant colonel was intrusted the
defense of Fort Rodman. one of the most
important points in the army line. He also
referred to the excellent work of the New
York signal corps, which had gone far to-
ward making the armys defense success
full. and 1t is probable that the War De-
partment will make some formal acknowl-
edgements TO the governors of both New
York and Massachusetts Of the fine work
done by the militia.

SATISFACTORY RESULT
MINISTER LEISHMAN COMMUNE
GATES WITH THE SULTAN.
The Latter Confirms Agreements Made
by the Former With Subor-
dinate Officials.

1t is learned at the State Department that
Mr.. Leishman, our minister at CONSTANT
nople, has finally reached a most satisfac-
tory understanding with the porte to the
complicated and delicate questions which
have been the subject of negotiation be-
tween the governments of the United States
and Turkey for several years. Consequent
ly his service has been extremely satisfac-
tory to the department, and instead of being
recalled. either on the score of ineft1ciency
or because of the unsatisfactory attitude Of
the Turkish government, he has, in fact,
successfully concluded this phase Of his
work, and has been granted leave OF alb
sence by the Department of State.
1t appears that the principal difficulty
experienced by Mr. Leishman was due to
the impossbility of finding any Turkish
officials with whom he might do business,
an arrangement with one or the other Of
them and this arrangement would be
promptly disavowed by the grand vizier as
soon as 1t came to the point of execution.
After several experiences Of this kind, Mr..
Leishman came into personal cOmmnuica-
ton with the sultan himself, and the latter
parsonage upon hearing Of the manner In
which the minister had been obstructed in
his work promptly issued summary order
that all of the arrangements entered into
by him with the subordinate officials should
be carried out in good faith. This is re-
garded as a satisfactory outcome OF the
negotiations, which relate to several sub
are the settlement of American claims and
the concession of some rights to Armenians
naturaliZed as United States citizens which
have been very much sought by them.

STREET IMPROVEMENTS.
commissioners Respond to Request of
Suburban Citizens

Inc Commissioners have received a letter
from the Northeast Suburban Citizens As
soclation requesting the grading and macad-
amizing of several streets in Langdon and
the laying of sidewalks during the course
OF the improvements. The association also
asked that the Commissioners take stems
to cause the removal OF the projection on
the Grimes property at the corner OF ODD
and Cincinnati streets northeast. request
was also made that water pipes be extended
through oath street from the Bladensburg
road to the Woodbridge subdivision. and
thaS arrangements be made with the Balti-
more and Ohio Railroad Company to allow
gas mains to be laid under their tracks in
the line of Detroit street.
G. T. Hunt. the computing engineer mas
reported to the Commissioners on the re-
quest. He recommends that oath street be
macadamIzed between Detroit ard Cinc!n-
nat streets, at an estimated cost of $3.50
ana or Cincinnati street between 22d and
2ith streets. at an estimated cost of 81 2O5
chargeable to the appropriation for repairs
10 roads. In reference TO the Grimes prop
erty Mr.. Hunt states that the District Is
unable to arrange with the owpers upon a
price to be paid for the land with a view to
the betterment of conditions Mr. Hunt
adds that attention will be paid to the side
walks referred to in the way of any reoa'rs
that may be needed. The new walk on ire
north side of Frankfort street cannot be
recommended at the present time Colonel
Biddie, the Engineer Commissioner has
moved that the work recommended by Mr.
Hunt be ordered and that the assocfatIon
be informed In accordance with his report.
