RESPONSE 70 PROTEST
THE BRICK USED IN CONGRESS
HTssENGTNH HOUSE.
Engineer Commissioner Says Building
Will Be of Satisfactory Character
The Material Superior.

Col. John Biddle. the Engineer Commis-
sloner of the Districts has replied to Joseph
M Arendes and Sother petitioners OF Con-
gress Heights who protested against the
character of the brick being used in the
erection of the engine house in that sec
uon for which Congress appropriated So
0oo. Col. Biddle says the brick being used
was CHOSEN as being the best of its kind
available.
1t is better, stronger and more water
tight BRICK he continues, than the one
used at the Anacostia station house, and
1t is believed that the appearance of the
building, when finished, will be superior to
that of the station house. l have examined
the walls as they are now. about three feet
hlgh, and think the appearance is good, and
that when completed it will be still better.
rms KIND of brick will also fit in better
with the tile roof and the general effect
for reflection of light, etc, will. it Is
thought, be distinctly superior to the red
brick. Every care is being exercised in
laying the brick, and it is up to the pres
ent very good job. The brick being
used is no cheaper than the other bricks,
and was adopted as being superior to them
IN qual1ty and appearance.
AS to the necessity for having painted
the school house at Congress Heights to
hide poor material the petitioners are in
error. The building was painted, but the
tion of the walls during a heavy rain storm
the mortar ran down the brick, staining
IL IN Such way as to inJure Its appear
ance, and which stains could not be re-
moved, although efforts were made to do
SO. Ihe' painting was to cover these
stains and not to hide the original appear
ance.
Prices Advanced.
'All of the $4,000 appropriated for the
engine house will be expended, but, of
course, it Is well known that the prices of
all such buildings have increased very much
within the last few years, and also that the
distance of the engine house from the
source of supply makes bricks cost 81 per
thouand more, materially advancing the
price of the building"
In the same come ction, Col. Biddle has
written to Mr.. A. E. Randle of Congre IS
Heights, inclosing a detailed estimate for
the building of the engine house.
As you see," says Col. Biddle, 'the esti-
mate only allows for contingencies and ex-
possible that if the house is completed be-
fore the time set by the contract some
amount will be saved on superintendent.
AS the estimate for putting stone facings
on the front was over $1,000, you will see
that the amount available would not permit
it. The specifications were drawn with
great care and are very strict, permitting
us to stop work, If necessary, during bad
seasons so as to get good job. The brick
used are hand made, land, as | stated in my
answer to the petition of the residents of
that section, wild, in the opinion of the
building inspector, give a more satisfactory
appearance than9press brick. This brick
costs as much, If not more, than machine
brick, and specified solely because 1t
was thought to be better.
