His record as U. S. Congressman, U. S. Sena-

January 20, 1797.-The General
Assembly of Maryland today enacted
law granting charter to enable
Benjamin Stoddert. Thomas Law and
John Templeman to form company
with a capital of $4,000. to be known
as the Anacostia Bridge Co, for the
purpose of erecting a bridge, with a
draw, over such portion Of the Eastern
Branch as the company may judge
most convenient and beneficial 10 the
public" 1t has been felt for some time
that bridge was needed across the
Eastern Branch. to facilitate comrlu1i-

out tonight in the Treasury Department,
President John Adams Joined the ranks
Of those conveying water The flames
were confined to the room occupied by
the auditor. They were quickly brought
under control and the damage was
slight. The fire was due to the defec-
tive method Of constructing chimreys
in the city, the floor joists being left
exposed to the heat Of fires. This has
ben the cause of several destructive fires
in the city during the last IL months
or more.
January 20. 1806.-The Western
School. first school to be established
under the new plan to improve the city's
educational facilities was opened today,
