Avenue Trip of 1890 Streetcor
To Mark Transit Progress Day

CIlc Wt1.lcIIlc1llUC1CO Gu 44CA oAS,
named for its inventor, Peter H.
Herdic.
One innovation Of the Herdic
was the system whereby passen-
gers entered from the rear, then
walked to the front to deposit
their fare.
Progress began pushing aside
the horse car. with its straw-cov-
cred floor. The Washington and
Georgetown Co. branched out in
1890 with the first cable carline
along Seventh street. The cars
were pulled by a cable running
through a conduit" under the
track and wrapped around two
huge revolving drums located in
a power house at the foot Of
Seventh street.
Horseless Cars Sensatioal.
This was sensational-cars with
out horses whipping along at six
miles per hour. It called for con-
struction of another big power
house where the District Building
is now located at Fourteenth and
E streets NV.
The cable car was about to pass
out with a decent burial when
fire helped it along. That big cable
house went up the night OF Sep
tember 20, 1897. And transit ON
cials, used to all sorts Of emergen-
cies had the lines operating on
schedule the next morning. THEY'D
rounded up all the horses and
mules available.
First of the electric lines sprang
up in 1888-the lexington and
Soldiers Home, the Georgetown
and Tennallytown and the Bright
wood Railway. The former COM
pany introduced a mail car and a
double decker streetcar. People
didn't take to the stair climbing
and the ble-decker soon faded
away.
wages Cut IN fanlCs
Wages slashed because of the
panic of 1893 touched of strike
by Metropolitan Railway workers
a year later. The cars ran again
when the company guaranteed the
operators SITS a day for a H.
hour day.
The Capital Transit Co. emerged
from the welter of small. discon-
nected lines in December, 1888,
and took over the gigantic task OF
welding the vast network into q
cohesive unit at a cost OF more
than $1,000,000.
In addition. there are five other
companies serving the Metropoli-
tan Area, which at last count were
carrying some SOC, ,000, 900 passen-
gers a year In 1891 vehicles.
Buses made their appearance in
the 1e20s and. now are operated
over 20 per cent more miles than
streetcars. During the wars peak,
1,070 buses were scheduled daily,
and today CTS are required for the
average days needs.
Known far and wide as one OF
the Nations top systems, Capital
Transit pioneered the modern,
stream-lined streetcars and now
has 500 Of them, costing $8.200,-
600. Capital Transit's 5,088 en-
ployes participate in an annual
payroll of more than $4,000, 900,
compared with q total output OF
$2,75U.0O0 Is years ago.

Parking vioIafor Fined
$50 for Carrying Knife

A motorist who gave police a hard
time when they sought to ask why
he was parked in a restricted zone
was fined $50 in Municipal Court
yesterday for carrying a knife.
Pvts. Lennie M. Daniels and Will
liam johnson Of No. 5 Precinct re-
lated that, while cruising in their
scout car Sunday they saw a private
automobile parked illegally at First
and B streets Sc.
They told the driver. John Samuel
Smith, 20, colored, Of Owens, Md, to
move on, whereupon, they said, he
retorted: what the hell is 1t to you
If I dont?"
The policemen got out OF their
car to investigate, at that point
Smith tipped out and opened q
switchblade knife, which he prompt
ly dropped when the policemen
drew their guns.
Caught after a two-block foot
race. Smith was charged with carry
ing a deadly weapon and making
threats. He was acquitted of the
latter charge by Judge George D.
Nelson but found guilty of the
weapons charge. He was not
charged with parking violation.

Mayfair Mansions, q 5S4-apart-

Tax Collector Guy Pearson said
1913 taxes of $5l,933 were paid in
full yesterday by Albert L. Cassell,
architect, representing the owners.
He explained the property was listed
among those to be sold because Of a
misunderstanding between District
officials and the apartment owners
over the amount of taxes due.
Mr.. Pearson said the owners ten
dered $48,4 30 several months ago but
did not stipulate the year for which
1t was intended, Mr.. Pearson said.
