The proposed eighty-foot thorough

Mayo Bridge by way of Fifteenth
Street, the dock and Fourteenth street.
received its first inspection yesterday
by the Council Committee on Finance,
which spent the afternoon in Il twelve
mile run over the city looking over

by the Council. The committee in
spectcd with particular care the prop
erty which 1t is proposed to condemn
IN constructing the northern approa ch
TO the bridge. but made no recommen-
datons
Chairman Grundy has called another
meeting of the Finance Committee to
take place at o'clock on Friday even
ing. when the bridge appyoach matter
Will in all probability be disposed of.
The project is before the committee in
the form of report from special
commission appointed by the Hastings
Court TO ascertain the value Of the
property that Will have TO be acquired
by the city in carrying out the inn
provement. According TO the report
II Will cost upwards OF $4,000 TO ac-
quire the land.
Opinion Divided.
1t Is an open secret that several
members OF the Finance Committee
are opposed to recommending the ex-
| penditure of this sum to construct an
eighty-foot thoroughfare from Main
! Street 10 the bridge These take the
/ view that the necessity for a wide APP
! proach TO the bridge is by no means as
pressing "a it is popularity believed to
be, and that traffic will have no trouble
| in finding its way along Fourteenth
and Fifteenth Streets even under pres
ent conditions.
y considerable. faction OF the FL
nance Committee as we'll as of the
Council is disposed to wait until the
bridge has been open for some time
before engaging the city in an cX-
pensive and far-reaching work OF i'm
pIovcment. Since the city has wait
cd until the bridge was finished to
begin work on approaches, ii is point
ed out, 1t may we'll walt a few
months longer and ascertain how bad
~ the approaches are needed by
watching the behavior OF traffic under
the demand OF actual business.

domination commissions report within

filed in the Hastings Court, the pro-
cecdinss VIII fail by default. since
any OF the Interested parties may at

ernOr Returns.

The departure OF Governor Mann for
the Governors Conference in Denver
will cause another delay OF two weeks
i'll the publication of tho report OF the
Joint observation-disclosures oyster Com
mission. which has investigated condi-
lions in the Potomac River and upper
Chesapeake Bay. The report drawn
by the six members OF the commission,
has been in the hands of expert ste
r"rraphcrs for several weeks. and was
expected to be received in acceptable
form this week 1t is not thought
proper to give over the report to the
press until ii has been presented to
the Governor and approved by him.
The joint oyster commission. COM
posed of Il chemist and Il bacteriologist
from Virginia, the same from Maryland,
and the same from the United states
department of Agriculture was Gre
ateu about twelve months ago as an
outcome Of bulletin prepared by a
chemist of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture attacking the pur-
ity of the Potomac River oySers. Gov
ernor Mann. who has received hints OF
the course taken by the numerous tests
maze by the scientists on the commits
zion, is authority for the prediction
that the report of the investigation
tomac River oysters.
Searching Probe.
The probe OF conditions in the Po-
tomac and the Chesapeake Bay by this
commission has been as thorough as
scientific training and Il desire to find
the truth could make il. 1t was the
avowed purpose behind the creation of
this commission that the findings would
be the last possible Word on the sub
ject and allay forever all suspicion of
the contamination of the succulent BIZ
valve. TO make their findings of the
utmost value and precision. the mem
bers OF the commission voted to make
analyses of water and oysters in the
Potomac River during each of the four
seasons OF the year, thus giving
grounds for comparative study of
oyster conditions under varying cir
cumstances.
The last Of the four tests was taken
in July. when the commission made
trip down the Potomac on special
boat taking samples OF water and
oysters. These samples. taken stimuli
taneously by the six members OF the
commission, were analysed in private
by each scientist, and only the final
results compared in conference. The
numerous and complicated tables ac-
campaigning the report delayed the
preparation of that document to a GER
tain extent. The result of the inves-
tigation will probably be given out
within two weeks.
