War Department that Gen. Kingman,
chief Of engineers. and Col. w. w. Harts.

VIRGINIANS WANT new
Bridge over POTOMAC
Alexandra County, Civil Association
Favors Entering City at Twenty
fifth Street.
PLAN LEGAL WAR ON AQUEDUcT

The executive committee of the Alexan-
dria County Service Association met at
Clarendon last night to consider the
question of a commercial bridge to con-
lnect the county with the District OF
Columbia, and the committee went on
record as heartily indorsing the plan 10
enter Washington at or near Twenty
fifth street. thereby placing Clarendon
and other points on the two electric lines
ten or fifteen minutes nearer the heart
of the city, avoiding the change of cars
at Thirty-sixth street and the ride
through the narrow streets of George
town.
1t was denied that the construction Of
the bridge at this point would injure
business in Georgetown or inconvenience
patrons of the electric lines, for since
the rapid building up of Alexandria
County and the establishment of first
class stores, much of the business that
formerly went 10 Georgetown is now
kept in the county.
The claim was made that II was within
the power OF the State corporation COM
mission TO refuse TO allow passenger
trains to leave the State over the re-
ported unsafe AQueduct Bridge, and II
speedy action was not taken the cars
OF the Washington and Old Dominion
Railway might be forced to seek another
entrance, possibly by building a spur
track and going in by the Highway
Bridge.
II was decided to send representatives
TO the mass meeting in Georgetown when
the retention Of Aqueduct Bridge is to
be urged, and while il was not stated
that the Georgetown merchants would
be boycotted. the association desires 20
know just how they stand.
President W. W. Malone introduced a
resolution commencing the efforts of
Representative C. c. Carlin to promote
the welfare of his constituents, which
was unanimously adopted. Mr.. Carlin is
without doubt Virginia<s leading repre-
sentative in Congress-" said Mr.. Malone, |
and the good work he has done and is |
doing will keep him in Congress as long |
as he will stand for reelection. His ef- |
forts to improve labor conditions truly |
stamps him as a man Of the people and
for the people"
Residents OF Georgetown are getting |
ready for a protest against the removal |
of Aqueduct Bridge. A large attend
ance is expected at a mass meeting to he
held in the Potomac Savings Bank Build
ing. Leaders in this fight to save the
bridge are G. W. Oftutt, P. T. Morgan.

One thing that she will mention which

matter.
