LIBERAL PROPOSITION
Company Willing TO Pave With Wit
riGed Brick Royal Street From
Prince to Duke.

Among the matters to be brought
before the City Council at its meeting
tonight will be that Of the franchise
of the .Washington-Virginia Railway
Company for the use of Royal street
from King to Franklin.
1t will be remembered that upon the
expiration of the lease OF Royal street
by the railway company a petition OF
property owners on tnat thorough
fare was presented to council asking
that body to take steps towards i'm
proving Royal street in connection
with the renewal of the company's
franchise.
The matter was referred to the
committee on streets and Mr.. Gard
ner L. Boothe, who is director OF
the railway company, has at times
met the committee and promised to
take up with the company the mat
ter of paving the street. Mr.. Boothe
has received a proposition by which
the company, in addition to the SS2,-
900 which it will pay during the next
twenty years for the use of the street
offers to pave with vitrified brick, at
it's own expense, Royal street from
Prince to Duke, also to contribute
$1,000 towards the improvement OF
Royal street from Duke to Wolfe, the
work to be of tar macadam. This
will be the amount the property
owners on, that square would be- as
sessed by the city provided the work
we're done as other street improve
ments. Thus they will enjoy the bene
fit of the improvement without cost.
1t has for many years been mat
ter of regret, not only to persons re-
siding on south Royal street, but to
other Alexandrians, that that lmpor-
tant thoroughfare should receive so
little attention; the fact that move
ment is about to be crystalized by
which better conditions will be brought
about will be read with satisfaction
by many.
During the prolonged drouth last
wear after an electric train on It's
way south left Royal street it became
obscured and all that could be seen as
it rushed along was a cloud of dust
that enveloped it. This, of course,
kept housekeepers along the line in a
bad humor. Such conditions were es-
pecially annoying to the congregation
of St. Mary's Church, that edifice be-
ing often filled with dust by passing
trains.

Proceedings.

Urban S. Lambert, who was elected
bv the Common Council to fill the un-
expired term of the late Hubert

lengthy demurrer and answer to the
quo warrento proceedings instituted

That Mr.. Barrett had not been pre-
vented by the council from qualifying

ENGLAND PLAN
F0R A BIC NAVY.
Race Between Germany and
England for Supremacy
at Sea to Close.
CANNOT BEAR COST
Tories Want Present British Navy to
Demolish Germany's Before 1t Be-
comes Too Strong.

Special to the Gazette
London, July 23.-Lord of the Ad-
mirality Winston ChurchilPs admls-
sion in Parliament that the speeding
up of warship building in England is
necessary because of the rapidity with
which the kaiser's fleet will grow un-
der the new German navy law, is re-
sponsible for deep misgivings through
out Great Britain today. The General
view is that the race between Eng
land and Germany for supremacy at
sea has got to stop. Regardless of
what Germany can do, England can
bear tie increasing cost on its ar
mament no longer.
But politicians and people are dl-
vided as to the right course for Eng
land to take. Tories want the rival
ry stopped by prompt use of the pres
ent Britain Navy to demolish Ger
many's before it is too strong to be
cruched. Then England will not have
to build new ships so fast. The libe-
rails do not not believe Germany has
hostilities against England in mind
and favor dropping out Of the race
regardless of Teutonic activity. Mem
bers of the labor party talk of COM
bination of English and German work
ingmen to stop so much ship building
IN bo.h countries.
Churchill is at odds with his own
party, the Liberal, in his big navy
policy and many think he will split IL
in pieces by his course.

Special to the Gazette.
Boston, July 23.-Labor claims a
sweeping victory in the announcement
by the State Board of Arbitration
that the Boston Elevated Railway
Company violated the state law pro-
hibiting the discharge Of men for
Joining or belonging to labor union.
1t was stated by District Attorney
Pelletier, after the report Of the Board
was made public today that the Grand
Jury will Immediately take up the
matter and that the officials respon-
sible will be punished.
In it's report, the board declares
that men were discharged because Of
union affiliations; that the strike
breakers now employed fail to record
fares collected; that the public interest
is menaced by the existing controver-
sv and that the contention Of the COM
pany that it's cars are being operated
in as good manner as before the
strike is without foundation"
"The board recommends to the par
ties that they endeavor to accom-
pIish an amicable settlement which
shall be alike just to the company and
it's employees and to the public which
it is its duty to serve" says the report
in conclusion.
