THE BUILDING LINES.
Favorable Action on Bill Giving Au-
thority to Commissioners.

Favorable action on the bill authorizing
the Commissioners to establish building
lines in the District is recommended by the
District authorities in a report submtte
by them to Congress today.
The present law providing for the estab-
lishment of building lines in the District OF
January Il, 1899. No building lines have
been established under this law. IL Is
stated, principally because of the large cost
involved for the payment of damages ana
the smallness of the funds available for the
purpose.
In order to facilitate the establishment OF
such building lines the Comm IS onerS sub
mitted to Congress an amendment 10 TINS
law which provides that the damages shall
be deducted from benefits where practicable
and only the residue paid
In their letter to Congress the Commas
sioners state:
while the Commissioners were not satis-
fled with the method of proceeding under
existing law, they believed that the amend
ment which they proposed to 1t would De
an Improvement upon it, and would, be
cause of its brevity, receive favorable con-
sideration.
THE bill now under cons Iteration. while
containing a provision similar to the one
already recommended to Congress, also pro-
vides new mode of proceeding To estah-
fish such lines. This new mode is modelled
the Commissioners for the opening OF minor
, streets and alleys i'm the District of Column
bia In this respect the b II is great i'm
provement on the present law and the
amendment to ii recommended by the Com
missioners, and is in fact, what the Com
missioners would have recommended had
they not had in mind the necessity of sub
hitting brief bill on the subject"

FAVOR RAILWAY BILL.
Commissioners Also Mention Required
Repairs to Anacostia Bridge.

In reporting on the bill to authorize the
Anacostia. Surrattsville and Brandywne
Electric Railway Company to extend its
street railway in the District the Commits
sioners state that they approve the in
crease of the street railway facilities east
of the Anacostia river, and therefore rec
ommend favorable action by Congress on
the bill.
The Commissioners state that bill SIM
liar to the one now under consideration
was introduced in the Fifty-seventh Con-
gress. The District authorities recon-
mended certain changes in the former bill
and these changes it is stated have all
been Incorporated in the present bill
In connection with their recommendation
for favorable action on the bill the Com
mssoners state that the Navy Yard
bridge, over which the increased traffic
would have to pass has been heretofore re-
ported by the Commissioners to Congress
as being at present overstrained, and an
item asking for it's rebuilding is contained
in the estimates of the Commissioners for
the ensuing fiscal year. 1t may, therefore,
be necessary to restrict or forbid the pas
sage of street cars over 1t.
The Commissioners state further with
regard to the proposed railway that the
road over which it is intended to construct
this railway is but sixty feet wide within
the limits of Anacostia, and narrows down
in the Good Hope road to about forty feet
as it approaches Good Hope; the Walker
road is but thirty-threc feet wide The
bill provides. however, that when the route
comedies with a county road of less width
than sixty feet the railway shall be con-
structed entirely outside the road, on a
right of way which shall be acquired by
the company, and which shall be dedicated
to the District without expense at any flu
ture time when the road is widened.
THE Commissioners recommend that a
further proyiso be added to this, which
| will read as follows: That whenever said
road shall be widened the Commissioners;
| of the District of Columbia are authorized
| to require that the tracks Of said railway
| company shall be located in the center of
| the road as widened.'"
