AVENUE EXTENSION
is UP TO MARYLAND
Project Long Sought by Chillum
Heights in Hands of Roads
Commissioner.

The proposed extension Of New
Hampshire avenue into Maryland, a
matter long of interest to the members
of the Chillum Heights Citizens As
sociation, rests in the hands of Justice
Frank F. Luthardt of the Maryland
State Roads Commission, DR.. Llewellyn
Jordan said yesterday.
. An appropriation has been made,
D.. taken from State gasoline tax proceeds,
and, despite some haggling as to price,
landowners of the right of way are
prepared to sell the required options
for the extension. All that is needed
: now, DR.. Jordan states, is a repre-
sentative of the Roads Commission
to contact the landowners and buy
up the options with the appropriation.
Until Judge Luthardt assigns a man
to do this, plans are stalemated.
90 DR.. Jordan has, for a number of
years, been actively interested in max
ing the necessary arrangements for
the proposed construction. Money has
been appropriated before and then
deleted, he says Again landowners
had to be contacted and bids received
from construction companies. He has
done all he can; the matter rests with
The Roads Commission, Judge Luthardt
having promised to attend to the
matter, he declares.
The Roberts Paving Co. Of Sails
bury, Nd, made the lowest bid for
the job.
The extension is intended to carry
New Hampshire avenue from its pres
ent terminus at the District line "a
miles to University lane, which, in
turn, unites with the Baltimore pike
at College Park.

BRIDGE PROGRESS
bUOYS SOUTHEAST.
Organization Heads Hopeful
on Eve of Fine Arts Com.
mission Meeting.

Efforts of civic and business organi-
cations in southeast to secure an item
of $650, 900 in the 1898 District apprro-
priation bill for the beginning OF
construction of the Pennsylvnia
Avenue Bridge were buoyed today with
the announcement that the Fine Arts
Commission will consider preliminary
plans for the southeast bridge along
with the revised plans for the new
t350,000 Chain Bridge, at a meeting
In New York City Tuesday.
At a recent meeting of the National
Capital Park and Planning Commis-
sion Col. Dan I. Sultan, Engineer Com
missioner of the District and an
ex-oficio member of the commission,
along with H c. Whitehurst, director
of highways, submitted six plans for
the bridge. Three were for steel and
three for concrete and the commission
picked one of each. sultan, it has been
learned, will send these plans to the
commission for action.
Budget Inclusion Expected.
With this information, coupled with
the fact that s25,0O0 is already avail
able for study of plans for the new
structure, the associations feel the
s650,O0O appropriation sought in the
1898 budget is almost certainty.
Speaking on this phase of the pro-
posed span, Adelbert w. Lee. president
Of the Randle Highlands Citizens
Association and vice chairman of the
Bridge Committee Of the Board of
Trade, said:
''It seems pretty well assured that
Southeast will get its bridge in the
near future. Things are progressing
very nicely and the appropriation
asked for in the 1888 budget should
be retained"
Similar enthusiasm was voiced by
William A. Maio. president OF the
Southeast Citizens Association and
chairman of the Southeast Council.
Maio Expresses Confidence.
1T feel confident that the District
Commissioners, the Fine Arts Com
mission and the National Capital
Park and Planning Commission will
act in the best interests of Southeast
snd the District as whole in the ef-
forts that are being made to secure
q new bridge across the Anacostia
River" he said. 1T is evident, with
the consideration to be given the
plans this week in New York City by
the Fine Arts Commission, that South
east is on its way toward securing the
structure" he added.
Louis. F. Frick, secretary Of the
Southeast Business Mems Association,
declared that he was pleased with the
progress that is being made, adding
that the associations principal desire
was to have an adequate and safe
bridge across the river, wide enough to
permit four or even six lanes Of traf-
&c.
Favorable comment was also given
by c. Dick English, vice president OF
the business men, and Vernis Absher,
chairman of the Highway and Bridge
Committee of both the council and
citizens association. English plans to
attend the meeting in New York to
see that the best interests Of the busi-
ness men are protected.

making the valley q sort Of national

In its letter the association stated
that 1t believed that the passage of

which would protect and extend the
beauty Of the Potomac and would ma
terially assist in reducing the germ
content of the water. At present, the

Attention also was called to the an

in reforestation and conservation work
which could be carried On. 3
