Everything connected with this
campaign for a Greater Washington
gives n rich promise of fruition-
Those who have watched similar
movements IN other cities. and quail
ified as experts in business health,
declare every sign of the times
points TO a rapid and steady eXpan-
sion of the 6ty's wholesale trade.
Expansion in one direction means,
as a matter Of course. expansion in
every other. Banks viii answer the
traders call for money. and rail
roads and steamship lines their P-
peal for the facile transportation of
their goods.
These are pleasant prospects, as
suredly. that open out before the
Washington vision, nor is there in
the unfolding picture any of che
elusive quality OF the mirage. The
trade advantages the picture shows
are we'll within the city's grasp.
They need only a vigilant and active
determination and a civic pride and
loyalty 10 back that determination.
up.
In other words, il is a time for
action. The organization 10 bring
the transformation about is in exist
ence and tomorrow its committees
will be named. II is TO be assumed
these committees will he composed
of men Of the right type-in touch
and sympathy with the situation
and alert TO the oity's needs. Upon
them VIII deyclve the largest share
Of the work that must be done.
As one of the sineerest friends
and we'll Wishers of the movement,
most vitality concerned in the move
ment's success, The Times ventures
10 suggest the following objects as
we'll worthy Of immediate effort for
attainment:
The establishment of q daily
freight service between Washington
and points in the Valley of Virginia.
The removal. by the Pennsylvania
railroad, of the burdens upon traf-
1c between Washington and Alexan-
dria, which now make prompt de-
liveries of shipments from this point
South practically impossible.
The readjustment of certain water
tariffs which now operate TO the de-
cided advantage of Baltimore.
The commitment of the local re-
tailers and consumers to the policy
of home patronage of home indus
tries.
The diversifcation of the jobbing
trade.
There are other desiderata in this
campaign and many things other
than those enumerated that are
largely needed But some of the
others must wait and all of them can
wait. Better freight facilities is a
vital and exiEent need. So is some
change of attitude on the part of the
Pennsylvania, which means, perhaps,
the same thing. The other sugges-
tions commend and explain them
selves.
What is demanded now is work
and work OF the right sort. If this
movement fails il viii be to Wash
ington's eternal shame. That must
not chance.

The Passing of Steam.

1t is announced that on the New
York Centrals lines, from the Grand
Central station in the city to dis
tance of thirty-five miles in the
country, electric locomotives viii be
used exclusively after October IS
Although the officials of the roads
do not so declare. the opinion is
freely hazarded, in well-informed
circles, that the change to electric
power viii be extended gradually
over all the lines of the system.
\ trial of two of the locomotives
that will be used TO draw the trains
through the city was made on Fri
day, and was satisfactory in every
particular. There was a total lack
of noise, smoke. and smell, by which,
in generous quantities, steam loco
motives are always accompanied.
There was "A magnificent display of
power. the elcctrics showing them
selves fully able to move any pas
senger train al a rate of sixty miles
an hour.
1t is a delightful vision. truly
this Of passenger trains moving
without heat or unpleasant noise or
irritating cinders, or any of the
other attendants of steam locomo-
tion. The subway viii lose half of
its terrors, and when trains pass
through the less formidable tunnels
there will be no crying need for
shutting down the windows and Of
fering an array of steamed and
cinder-decorated passengers at the
next stop, The whole thought is
attractive.
1t viii be a good many years, it is
likely, before steam locomotives are
banished from American railroads,
but it requires no prophetic vision
to see that their disappearance ulti-
mately is a fixed certainty. While
the present generation of steam
locomotive engineers is in no great
danger of lacking employment. it
might be well for thesr sons to add
a knowledge OF electricity to their
mechanical equipment.
Steam has been king for a good
many years, but already its SOW
ereign sway is challenged by "a
cleaner, lighter, and more powerful
rival. Even now, perhaps, the dy-
nasty is tottering TO its fall.

POLICE COMMISSIONERS
SCORED BY JUDGE SMITH
A. NIEMEYER WILL NOW SECURE
LIQUOR LICENSE
Decision of Judge Chambers Reversed
by Superior Court-Echoes of Last
MayoraIty Fight Plainly Notice.
able in Case

The board of police commissioners
were scored Saturday morning by
Judge Smith of the superior court in a
decision in which he dismissed the
criminal complaint against A. Me
meyer, charged with selling LIQUOR with
out a license.
Mr. Niemeyer, it is alleged. through
political animosities engendered during
the last mayoralty campaign. was re-
fused a license, and on January l his
license as a wholesale liquor dealer was
revoked. January and again on the
Sth of the same month he made appli-
cation for n license and rendered at
the time a fee for the same. His ap-
plication was in both cases refused,
and on January he was arrested on a
charge of selling liquor without
license. 1t was charged that he sold
liquor on that date to a police officer.
After his arrest he brought manda-
mus proceedings and in March secured
an order from the superior court COM
manding the commissioners to issue
him a license. -Iiemeyer was tried on
the criminal charge after his license
was granted, was convicted and fined
500.
1t was upon this conviction that an
appeal was taken to the superior court
and Judge Smith reversed the decision
of Judge Chambers A new trial was
waived.

WOMEN QUARREL AND FIGHT
of Eighteenth Street and
Darwin Avenue Scene of
Recent Conflict

AS a result of neighborhood quarrel
on Darwin avenue, Mrs Nellie Thomp-
son, living at 1916 Darwin avenue con-
suited Assistant City Prosecutor Eddie
yesterday in reference to securing a
complaint for battery against Mrs.
Pressman, living at 1872 Darwin ave-
nue..
According to the story told to the
prosecuting attorney the Thompson
children and the Pressman boy quar-
relied several days ago and the mothers
of the children became involved in the
trouble.
1t is claimed that Mrs. Pressman,
a large woman of considerable physical
strength, got the best of Mrs. Thomp-
son, much smaller woman, and the
latter has endeavored to secure COM
plant against her neighbor.
Mrs. Pressman denies the story told
by her former acquaintance and says
that she was simply protecting her
child from harm and used no un-
necessary force upon anyone.

NEW YORK, April 7.-Today's bank
statement showed the cash reserve of
the clearing house banks to be S,56O,625
below the legal requirement. The show
ing was not q surprise. in view of the
course of the market this week and
the known movements of the money
which made their appearance yesterday.
The cash loss shown by the bank state
ment of $7,904 200 was about equal to the
minimum estimates of yesterday The
considerable loan expansion of $7,205,5O
occasioned some surprise.
While the stock market this week has
given no evidence of important liquida-
ton. it was believed a large transfer was
going on of credits from the local banks
to interior and foreign lenders.
The stock market yielded ground but
slowly after the publication of the bank
statement. and from the vantage point
of some earlier advances the closing tone
was easier with some support here and
there.
The last occasion on which the banks
showed deficit in the surplus reserves
was on December o. 1t was in the week
following that speculative activity be-
came most pronounced on the stock eX-
change, the aggregate sales of the week
rising to over 100000 shares with ad
vances of from to points in such
stocks as Union Pacific, Great Northern

tral. in spite of the continued strength
In the money market which eliminated
in the last week of December in the
125 per cent money rate The speculative
contingent in the market today were in
clined to make much of the analogy.
There were many rumors current of gold
engagement for export to be executed
next week following arrivals in London.
Foreign exchange here was firm all
day. although the Saturday market is
nominal. and the quoted rates We're con-
siderably above those of yesterday
