commissioners establish several municipal

Col. Biddle made his farewell address to

month the Commissioners decided to have
10th street extended to the District line.
and to close all the so-called shallow pub
lie wells in various sections Of the city.
In spite of protests the old Presbyterian
burying ground in Georgetown was pur-
chased for public playground site. The
commissioners in June decided to erect
stable for the water depa rtment in Bloom
lngoale. but the protests of the residents
were so strong that the commissioners
changed their minds. During the summer
the sealer of weights and measures was
busi1y engaged in conducting a crusade on
the "short-weight" ice dealers. July l
3.Ou0 water meters were put in operation.
One OF the biggest things in the District

Early in August the Commissioners dis
covered that the local gas companies were
escaping taxation on their meters and
service pipes. and Immediately corrected

YEARS WORK OF THE
POLICE Department

Though umerically inadequate. the To-
cal police department kept pace with the
violators OF law during 1907, and its of
ficials are gratified that it's usual high
standing has been maintained. Efforts
have been made to afford better pro-
lection to residents of the suburbs. He
asks that 100 additional men be given
him this year. pointing out that not only
the city OF Washington is to be protected,
but that about eighty towns, villages
and subdivisions are to be looked after
by patrolmen and others. During the

The police managed to maintain good
order on holidays and other occasions
when there were crowds on the streets
The Fourth of July celebration was at
tended by fewer noisy explosions than
ious horn blowing to mar the Christmas
holidays. Maj. Sylvester inaugurated a
system of having back gates, front doors

hours of the night. hoping to decrea Sc
the number OF burglaries. Members of
the force were directed to give special
attention to the enforcement of many
of the minor ordinances, increasing the
vigilance over minors. Names of hun

were procured and transmitted to proba-
ton officers and children attending school
were given additional protection.
The annual inspection of the several
precincts resulted in a victory for the

week Indiscriminate begging on the
streets and the distribution of Christmas

BOARD OF TRADE AND
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE

More real progress marked the conduct
Of affairs Of the local commercial bodies
during the past twelve months than dur
ing any similar period in the history OF
the Capital city. Probably most impor-
tant was the amalga nation OF the Bust
ness Mems Association and the Jobbers
and Shippers Association under the name
Of the Washington Chamber Of Com
MERGE The Board Of Trade also had an
active year, and at the beginning OF the
first session of the Sxtieth Congress it
stands committed to the interests Of many
important matters OF legislation looking
to the Improvement of the District of.
Columbia.
One of the most important of the early
meetings Of the year for the Board of
Trade was the session of that body in
March. An immense amount of business
was transacted. and the calendar was
cleared by the adoption of many reports
which had been pending before the board
for a long time. There was some disap-
pointment over the failure oil the PROPOSE
ton to employ a commercial secretary.
but the rank and file of the
Board of Trade membership declined to
support the innovation.
Members of the local board were prom
inentiy Identified with the annual session
of the National Board of Trade. which
met in this city January 1911. This i'm
portant body considered many matters of
significance. and its DELHI
erations crystallized in the adoption of
resolutions praying for action by Con-
gress upon proposed amendment to the

The fire at johnson & Wimsatt's lumber
yards January % was of great interest
to the fire departments and the citizens
generally. as it was the first opportunity
which had fallen to the fireboat Fire
fighter to demonstrate its effectiveness.
The boat excelled expectations and was
the means. not only of enabling the de-
partment to devote all its efforts to the
land side of the fire. but also prevented
the total destruction of the large number
of vessels lying at the wharf.
