tions on the street have been such since

members of the Brightwood Park Citi-
zens' Association. decided. at g. meeting
last evening to try to prevent the road
from operating cars.
It seems that the time limit given by
the District to the road in which to have
cars running over 1T regularly has ex-
pired. and the road is now asking an ex-
tension of the time limit. This the as
sociation is determined 1t shall not have,
and to that end petition to the House

among the property owners of Bright
wood, asking that q delegation from the
association be heard.
Almost as important in the eyes of the

were in q deplorable condition. 1t was
resolved that a committee be appointed
to see what could be done, and the CO.
operation of the Brightwood Citizens AS
sociation should be asked.
A resolution asking that the parkings
should be put in good condition was
adopted, as was q resolution that the
teachers of manual training and domestic
science in the schools should be given
equal pay with the teachers of the aca-
demic subjects.
Two. new members, ]. p. Locke and

BOMBPROOFS NEEDED.
Carabao Island Could Not Be Held
Against an Enemy.

Extensive bombproof structures will
have to be erected to protect the garrison
and military storehouses on Carabao
Island, at the entrance to Manila bay. If
that fertilization is to be made proof
against the attacks of an enemy. This
was the substance of information given
yesterday by Col. Edward Burr of the
War Department to the House committee
on military affairs.
"Bombproof cover is necessary says
Col Burr. "for protection against an
enemy who secures possession. Of the
south shore Of the entrance to Manila
bay. If this point is to be held. aa we
may some time have to. or want to
hold it to the extreme, 1t will be neces-
sary to take these extra measures.
1.-The conditions are such that under
modern siege operations the garrison
could not hold its grounds for anything
more than q relatively short period of
exposed overhead or shrapnel fire."

Analyses the Testimony.

Continuing his speech, Mr. B0TAh ana
lyzed the testimony Of the various wit
nesses before the investigating commit
tee. He declared that there had been
unmistakabie bribery; that 1t had been
shown conclusively that at least four Of
the Lorimer votes had been obtained by
bribery. Instead of regarding the testi-
mony as flimsy, he thought 1t surprising
that the committee had heard from as
many members Of the legislature as had
testified. He expressed the opinion that
I'm some Instances the committee had not
pressed its inquiries as far as 1t might
have done advantageously.

all the thirty democratic votes for Lori
mer were tainted.
II don't care IL seven or ten or fifteen
votes were purchased" he remarked IF
Mr.. Browne himself was corrupted, then
under the law and any reasonable inter-
probation Of the situation the entire thirty
votes were corrupted. 1t Is just as clear
as the MONDAY sun that without the in
fiuence and control of Mr.. Browne Mr..
Lorimer could not have been elected.
IF Mr.. Browne was corrupted, as the
testimony Of white. Link, Brekemeyer
and HOlstlaw and the letters, kilograms
etc, all tend to show. he was delivering
not only his vote. but the votes Of all
thirty members in the combination. The
election could not have been pulled of
without first fixing Mr.. Browne

BUILDING TO
RETAIN OLD NAME,
SENTIMENT, CAUSE
Owners of Structure Refuse
to Defer to Wishes of
Real Estate Men.

The name of the Ames building, 141O.
14l2 G street northwest, will not be
changed to the Real Estate building,
despSte the fact that eleven real estate
offices occupy the first two floors en-
urely. A sentimental regard Of the an.
cient structure, one of the oldest in
Washington, prevented the proposed
change to suit modern conditions.
One of the brokers having offices In
inasmuch as there were more real es-
tate offices in this building than in any
other office building in the city. 1t would
be proper to name the structure the
Real Estate building. The agents Of the
estate owning the property took the
matter under consideration, but have
finally decided that they will not agree
to the change.
They urge purely sentimental reason
for their decision. The Ames heirs, they
say, are old people living in Brooklyn
and New York. They have pride in
their Washington property, however.
because the G street building has been
in the family for about round century.
The present building is simply the old
Ames residence remodeled Tor office
purposes.
When the grandfather Of the present
owners purchased the property about
city. he paid ZOO for 1t. Today II Is
valued at a quarter of a million. The
property has never since passed out Of
the name of Ames, so that to some, at
least, there is a real II only sentimental
reason for its retention.
