A Sidewalk Nuisance,
To the Editor of The Evening Star:

10 the Editor OF The Evening Star:
At time when SO much is being said,
through the medium of the daily press rela-
tive to the existing smoke nuisance" in
the District of Columbia and the enforce
ment of the laws regarding the same, it
would be well to strike another blow, while
the iron Of public opinion Is hot on the
subject Of coal grievances, by calling the
attention Of our Commissioners to the prac-
tice of local coal dealers in obstructing the
public sidewalks whenever it suits their
convenience, with long metal shutes, ex-
tended from the rear Of their wagons across
the pavements and parking and thereby
for from half hour to an hour at a time
making it necessary for pedestrians to walk
out into the street and around the horses
heads, in order to continue on their way,
while the drivers Of the wagons stand
complacently by and watch the loads of
coal run noisily into the purchasers eel
lars. In inclement weather, and especially
at a time when our streets are filled with
snow and slush. as they frequently are
during the months when coal is handled
most, 1t Is extremely disagreeable to be
forced to wade into the roadway which is
perhaps crowded with other teams, aside
from the danger of wet feet and the nat
ural sequence, a severe cold, perhaps re-
sulting in something more serious, to say
nothing of time lost in making the neces-
sary detour. Now while this method of
obstructing the public pavements has been
In operation for some time without any
IemonStrance on the part of the District
citizens, it does seem that this Is subject
which ought to have received some con-
sideration long ago. as it is certainly a
nuisance and one which can and it should
be abated. While the enactment of an ordi-
nance prohibiting the storage of coal in
the above described manner would directly
affect me in that mine is now stored by the
shute wagon system without cost, and
would have to pay the usual price, % cents
per ton, to some one for putting it away,
still I would gladly do this to insure my
self and others against the obstruction of
the public walks and also assist by this
means in furnishing some little employ
ment for the countless poor, half-starved,
illy-clothed creatures always to be seen
about our streets during the long winter
months. in b.
