WIDTH OF A STREET.
No Consideration Given to Probability
Of Parking.

A communication from w. Riley Decide
Of 1919 street northwest, requesting that
18th street from Morris street northward,
in front of sublots % to "a, inclusive. Me-
ridian Hill, be graded, has been received
by the District Commissioners. Mr.. Decide
will be Informed, in accordance with a re-
port upon the matter by Assistant Engi-
neer Richards, that in the condemnation of
10th street no consideration was given to
the probability of parking along the line
of this street, but the award was made on
the supposition that the Commissioners
could improve the street to any width
deemed advisa BILE.
AN effort was made by the corporation
counsel" says Mr.. Richards, Ito have the
parking width considered, so that benefits
might be assessed on the abutting property
by reason of the future establishment of a
parking space. Since parking has been
established along the line of this street,
and since no benefits have been assessed
for such contemplated improvement, 1t
seems equitable that parties should be al
lowed to grade their own parking. They
have already done so in several cases. In
all estimates for grading this street the
grading of parking has not been included.
and attention Is invited to the fact that
some extra heavy cuts and fills would add
very greatly to the opening of this street
If the District be required to do the work
recommend that the request be denied.

GENERAL STRIKE PREVENTED.
Chicago Packers Grant Increase Of
Wages to Striking Employees.

CHICAGO. November 5.-Representatives
of the packing interest at the Union stock
yards have offered the striking sausage
makers and Gamers an increase in wages
that probably will be accepted by the en-
ployes. preventing a general strike in all
the centers of the industry.
At conference between the superintend-
ents of the plants and the officers Of the
Amalgamated Meat Cutters and Butchers
Union the men were told that the packers
consented to raise the wages Of all the
sausage makers to minimum scale Of
81 10 day, but refused to raise the pay of
those getting more than that amount They
declared they willing to set the same
standard in the canning department. which
would mean a general increase of about 6
per cent.

CHANGE IN STREET WIDTH.
Citizens Association Too Late Will
Request for Hearing.

The Commissioners recently received a
letter from the Northeast Washington Citi-
Gems Association requesting that a commit
tee of that body be granted hearing in
regard to a proposed change in the width
of f street northeast The communication
was taken under consdera ton by Engineer
Commissioner Biddle, who has made the
Following report. in accordance with which
the association will be informed:
Through some error. which it is impos-
slble now to locate, the association was
not notified that hearing would be grant
ed them The Commissioners are very
willing to grant them q hearing, and if
they still desire to be heard a meeting
Will be arranged. 1t should he stated that
before any objection was made to the mar
rowing of the roadway of this street con-
siderable work had already been done. and
change of plans would have involved CON-
siderable expense.
New curbing and manholes have been
put in place, and to change these now
would seem to be unwarranted In view of
existing conditions The Office gave the
subject considerable thought at the time
the change in the street was recommended.
1t is the practice in improving roadwayS
thirty-five feet wide not occupied by rail-
road tracks, to reduce the width to thirty
feet to save the expense of paving great
er width, this width being ample for the
ordinary purposes, of traffic.
'1f in the future on account of the loca-
ton of the new terminal station, traffic be-
comes so important as to require wider
street the street can then be widened by
changing the curbs and sewer inlets with as
little expense as it could be done for at this
time. the trees being left in their present
position. The most improved kind of pave
ment is being put down upon this street.
allowing the use of cutters for the full
width for roadway purposes. and it is not
anticipated but what 1t will be ample for
all traffic using the street.
The recommendation has been approved
by the Commissioners
