BRIDGE RECONSTRUCTION.
Hearing Given Persons Interested in
Pennsylvania r. r. Project.

Col. Smith s. Leach, U. S. A., engineer
officer in charge of Potomac Park, con-
Quoted a public hearing in his office at 1000
22d street northwest this morning for those
interested in the proposition of the Penn
sylvania railroad to reconstruct the bridge
over the tidal basin in Potomac Park fo1
the purpose of fitting it for use by the
Mt. Velnon electric railway and fol-
highway traffic when the Washington end
OF the present railway bridge is aban-
doned. The improvements of the Pennsyl-
vania company in connection with the new
terminal scheme will include the raising OF
the grade at this point seven feet. In
order to provide properly for the electric
road and the highway traffic application
was made to the War Department to be
permitted to shift the entire present bridge
abutments, until the new structure is COM
pleted.
j. w. Craig, division engineer of the
Pennsylvania road and T. j. Holbrook
representing the Alexandria brick COM
panies, appeared before Col. Leach and
when the former stated that in the removal
of the bridge traffic would not be inter
rupted the latter expressed himself as per-
fectly satisfied with the proposition. The
Alexandria brick companies haul about
75, 600 loads of brick across the bridge
every year. and are therefore greatly in
terested in anything that might hinder the
traffic there.
No others appeared before the engineer
in charge, and as this was advertised as
public hearing 1t is taken for granted tina,
there will be no objections to the plan from
any other interests Col. Leach will make
his report at once.

Sketch of the Successor to Joseph R.
Hawley From Connecticut.

Morgan G. Buckley, who was elected
United States senator from Connecticut to
succeed Joseph r. Hawley, as reported
heretofore in The Star, is one of the most
prominent citizens of the state and has
been as much in public life as any one i'll

and Hawley. He entered the common
council of Hartford in 1874 and then was
for two years an alderman. He was mayor
of the city for eight years. He contested
unsuccessfully with p. G. Lounsbury for
the republican nomination for governor and
two years later was nominated unanimous
ly, not a frequent occurrence.
He was governor in the trying hold
over" era and the supreme court sustained
his position. He is department commander
of the G. a. r. and member of the Loyal
Legion and also of the Society of .Cincin-

and there were six scattering votes.
Mr.. Carter amid a scene of enthusiasm
thanked the legislature for the honor con-
ferred on him.
Thomas III. Garter, who is returned to the
United States Senate from Montana after
lapse, served in that body for the term
1S95-19O1
Born in Scioto county, Ohio in 1854. he
received common school education IN Hill
nois; was engaged in farming, railroading
and school teaching for number OF years;
studied law and was admitted to the bar;
in 1882 removed from Burlington, Iowa, to
Helena, Mont; was elected delegate from
the territory of Montana to the Fifty-first
Congress, and upon the admission of the
state was elected it's first representative
in Congress; was commissioner of the gem
eral land Office from March, 1891, to July,
1892, when he was elected chairman of
the republican national committee: in jan
uary, 1895, was elected to the United States
Senate.
Mr.. Carter served as chairman of the
national committee until 1896 AT the close
of his term in the Senate he was appointed
one of the United States commissioners Of
the St. Louis exposition and was elected
president of the board. His task in ST.
Louis is about completed.
The following story of Mr. Carter throws
some light on his character:
When ne lived in Illinois he used to
teach school winters and during the sum-
mer vacation peddled variety of books
suitable to the needs of every community.
If he could not sell a copy of Every Man
His Own Lawyer at farmhouse he would
try the latest treatise on veterinary science
or an illustrated Bible. and if they didn't
want these he would persuade the girls to
purchase the True Lovers Album, which
contained pictures of famous beauties hand
somely engraved, with sentimental poems
and blank leaves alternating, upon which
the owner could record her reflections or
secure the autographs of her friends.
Mr. Carter laid the foundation of his vast
fortune in this simple way. Unlike many
men who have risen from an humble sta
ton to great wealth and the height of fame,
he feels sympathy with other ambitious
young men and women who are following
in his footsteps. That is the reason he
buys every subscription book that is offered
to him. no matter what it is. No book
peddler ever called on Mr.. Carter without
selling him at least one volume. His library
contains a remarkable assortment of such
works as are peddled through the farming
communities and the office buildings of the
cities.
