THE WASHINGTON TIMES, TUESDAY, MAY 2i, 1912. , WHAT IS SAID AS TO CONDITIONS AROUND SALOONS .(The "Seventh Street Dis '; trictu Described as Par ' ticularly Bad. (Continued from First Page.) than by golntr up and down Seventh treet as I have. I know that the con- I dltlons there at night on Seventh street became so terrible on account of the large number of saloons that special policemen were put there for the pur pose of breaking up the gatherings. They gathered around there, drunken men and women, and It was almost im possible, so they told me It came to me officially through the trial of cases in the Police Court (hat It was almost Impossible for a decent man after 9 o'clock at night to go up and down Seventh street on account of the drunken crowds that were In front of those saloons from N street north to P street, and in that neighborhood. X have had hundreds brought In for ob structing the streets there. Harry Robinson, a motorman on one of the Seventh street lines, testified: "I have been a motorman on the street cars for twenty-two year, and I have studied those conditions on Seventh street, -becauso I live on the corner of Seventh and T streats, end, like the i;ontlman who spoke here the other morning in regard to schools, I 'have I stood on the cars inanv times and thought pityingly of the children who ' have to tiass irolne to school. "I am the father of two boys, and, as 'I ray. I live at Seventh and T street. . I observed the conditions, and thov 'were such before we bad the wlle-llmlt one that mv wife would not venture oitt aftrr dark around the locality known nn Seventh and T streets or Le- yond Florida avenue. "J do not tell vou this as being biased apalnst the Hqubr traffic. I have made observations In mv woik and the acci dents that have happened In mv time a a motorman, eight out of every ten have been caused by drunktn mn run t nine uf ter the cars and iicttlnK hurt In that way. t have counted thn anlnon thrrrv nnrt night after night It Is the same thing. These good gentlemen on the other side give you all these facts on the day light side of It Gentlemen, I see these things from 6 o'clock In the morning until 3 o'clock In tho afternoon In one ' month, and from 3 o'clrfck 1n the after , noon to 2 o'clock the next morning. I see the conditions as they are. Nighttime Conditions. Senator Works Can you tell us about the nighttime? Mr. Robinson In tho night, especially on Saturday night, on Seventh street you can see the bad conditions there. They are not by any means what they I ought to be a Christian community in a civilized country. The Chairman Tell us what the con , dltlons are. That Is what we want to cet at. Mr. Robinson Drunken men coming out, not only coming out, but being thrown out, kicked out. thousands of them. There Is bad language used. I can hear the language as I go by on ray' car. It Is not language fit for ' women to hear, and not women "only, but men. The Chairman That occurs fre quent! v? Mr. Robinson Yes; night after night, year In and year out. along Seventh street running from the river to Seventh and Rhode Island avenue. Senator Works What Is the condition on your car lines? Do those men In a condition of drunkenness get on the cais? Mr. Robinson They do, It seems to me that the first place a man heads for when he gets full of -whlBky Is a street car. ir ne does not, ao it nimseu mr police officers brine them out and tn to put them on. I had occasion to.hrix a policeman tell me that he would ' i mo" because I would not let him pu drunken man on the car. It Is dlroi. against the rules of the compan i -allow a man on the car who Is not fit to take care of himself. This man had to bo held up. , Senator Works Is that a matter of frequent occurrence, getting on the cars In that condition? Mr. Robinson It Is a matter of dally occurrence, not only once but a dozen times a day. . Senator Works Have any disturb ances resulted In the cars as, a result of that? . Mr. Robinson Yes, sir. There U hard lv a week that there are not two or three or flve things of that sort hap pening on the Seventh street line, to say nothing of other lines. I am onlv speaking for the Mine where I work. "No Worse Than Georgetown." Mr. Harvey Mr. Robinson, do you know anything about any other part of the city except Seventh street? Mr. Robinson Yes. sir. Mr. Harvey Is Seventh street worse than the other part of the city, to your knowledge? Mr. Robinson-Seventh street Is no worse than the conditions on M street In Georgetown, where the saloons are. Mrs. H. C. Rugg. formerly of the As sociated Charities, said in part: "In my capacity as a worker I was obliged to sign certificates for free medical treatment at the Eastern Dis pensary. , I always looked on Monday for a crop of people that would come out suffering from stab wounds, cuts through their clothes, If they did -not go into their persons and Injure them severely And there were contusions from brickbats and blackened eyes and free-for-all fights They did not al ways come out, but they came dut so frequently that I knew, although the fights did not take place In the saloons, because Captain Daly's men keep good nnlnr thero. thnt thev were the result of liquor drinking there, and I have also seep liquor sajoons put right at the mouth of the alleyB. Thrre Is one on H street, between Sixth and Seventh, at the opening of a largo crowded alley called 'Brewers' Court.' and the worst of It is that right in that soctlon live a very low order of colored people, whose , great temptation Is liquor, and on ac count of their race and their Ignorance the liquor affects them, as they are a tropical people, and much more easily excited. The conditions there are very bad " The Rev. Harrison D. Boyer, now of r - the Baptist Church, but formerly with the People's Mission of this city, and an evangelist who has visited nearly all the cities In 'the United States, toe tilled: "I have been actively engaged In the work of the People's Mission here in this city for some time, when they were at 910 Pennsylvania avenue, and also when they were below D street, around the Postofflce building, and afterward when they moved to Seventh and K streets. I have been a if active member for a long time, being actively engaged In religious work. In my work It has been my duty and my privilege to go Into the lower sections of the city. It got to be so that when this mission moved from 910 Pennsylvania avenue that mv wife would not accompany me when I went down to the mission be cause of the drunken men and women she would see, and the language she would hear. I went down to the mission when it moved to Seventh and K streets southwest. I walked down there and back so that I could observe the con ditions, and not a single night going down there, sometimes two nights a week, In which I did not see twenty-flve or flfts men and women, boys and girl. under the Influence of liquor. They stopped me all along the street, asklntc me to give them something to cat or something to get a place to sleep, but I knew what they wanted. They wonted more money to get something to drink These conditions exist In the city of Washington. "I have been In these saloons along the avenue, along C street between Sixth and Seventh streets northwest and on Seventh street southwest, and you could see men intoxicated standing along tho bars. I do not take It from any one else's testimony, but I was in the places and saw It myself. There was not a single tnstanco that I went into a rilaee that I did not see drunken men." Albert K. Shoemaker, attorney for tho local temperance forces Introduced tht reports of police officers filed with the excise board regarding the disreputable character of many places In thlB dis trict, alleging not only drunkenness, but gross Immorality upon the part of both sexes that congregate In these places, with the notation that In many specific cases tne places rcponoa nu their licenses renewed In the face of the reports. ONE VOICE T FAVORS 5-YEAR. TENURE LAW Merchants Unanimous in Their Opposition to Its Passage. and of NEW FAST TRAINS ON B. & 0. RAILROAD To Leave Washington at 10 A. M. And at Midnight For Chicago. Important changes have been made In the through train sen-Ice of the Balti more and Ohio railroad leaving Wash ington. Two new trains to Pittsburgh and Chicago have been added to this sen-Ice. A new train will leave Union Station at 10 a. m., running solid with out change to Chicago with sleeping cars, parlor dining cars and coaches, arriving Pittsburgh 6:35 p. m.. Chicago 8:16 a. m. the next morning. This train will make all Western connections leav ing Chicago In the morning. A new through train to Pittsburgh and Chicago will leave Washington at 12 o'clock midnight, with through sleep ing cars to Pittsburgh, Cleveland and Chicago, arriving Pittsburgh S:S0 a. m Cleveland 1:10 p. m. and Chicago 9 p. m. This train makes connections with all principal through trains of Western lines leaving Chicago for St. Paul, Min neapolis, Omaha. Kansas City and tne Pacific Coast. The new 10 o'clock train will make connections at Weverton for Hagers town, arriving there at 12:15 noon, shortening the time, one hour.. Tho Royal Special five-hour train for Phila delphia and New York will leave Wash ington at 11 a. m. instead of 9 a. m., the 9 a. m. departure being the new train from Chicago which will reach New York at 2:16 p. m.

There are reasons why he brings his family and his friends to his permanent rcsiaence piaco ana wny ne adopts this place an his future home. Briefly, he is assured of an opportunity to earn his living and to remain In definitely In a community where he hopes some day to become an Import ant factor. Under such conditions as these there must be a strong correlative analogy In relation to the local merchants who depend largely upon the great army of Government servants for the promo tion of business Interests, and. If the tenure of office of these people Is to have the statutory limit as proposed. rnmmnn Rcnun nnlnts nut to US that pursestrlngs will be tightened, strict economy practiced, and funds that should bo in circulation will find their way Into savings banks ready for getaway-day. No comment is necessary as to what effect this would have on the mercantile affairs of our city. ' We are heartily In sympathy with the movement you have started, and we are glad of the opportunity of add ing our protest to any attempt tending to curtail the chances of the clerks or that mav hazard the welfare of our community. JACKSON BROS.. INC. Unrest Would Affect All Lines of Business. To the Editor of THE TIMES: I cannot believe that Congress wilt pass legislation fixing the tenure of office for Government clerks at flve years. We read and like to speak of our limes aa the most enlightened and progressive In the world's history. This movement Is certainly a retrograde one. As a lifelong resident of this city. I remember so well the conditions which prevailed before the civil service rules were In force. The unrest, the un certainty, the haunting fear of removal rested heavily upon thousands of our best cltlzenB. Our merchants, too. at every change of administration cur tailed credit, and the same unrest af fected business generally. The question I should like to ask is, whv flve years? If an Individual Is Incompetent, why let him or her re main flve months, on five days? If they prove efficient, are they not bet ter clerks at the end of flve years than anv new appointee can possibly be? This legislation should not pass. Cer tainly some other solution of the prob lem can be had. BYRON S. ADAMS. be secured If Federal Jobs are restricted to short term periods. I heartily concur In The Tones' view that everybody should Join In an effort to impress upon Congress the undeslra- blllty of the proposod legislation. , .. D. B. PORTER, Dlv. Manager C. & P. Telephone Co. Capital Would no Turned Into a Camping Ground For Temporary Employed . To the Editor of TUB TIMES: With public spirited organizations, like the Chamber of Commerco and oth er combined forces, It seems almost ab surd for any one small Individual to protest against anything In the form of a Congressional measure. However, The Times is a live paper, and ought to know what will have the desired effect in checking up undesirable legislation. Washington Is today a much more beautiful city than It wag thirty years back, when the streets were full of office seekers, who spent their savings while waiting for Jobs that never ma terialized. The civil service has been a good thing for those of us who are mostly dependent on the Government employe for what Is to be had In the lino of business. if tho lepartmrnt cleik loses his posi tion It means that he loaves Washing ton: theie is nothing elso for him to do If there Is t specific time when ho may lose his lob, ho will become mora cautious ns tne- time craws near, una so all business would suffer In propor tion. It seems ns though the Congress of the Unltid States would bo more considerate than to mnko a law which would vlitually turn the Capita) city of tin1 nation Into a camping round for ib.Vi temporary employes. If this Is what Is meant bv tho five-yeor tenuie Mil whl.'h waj editorlallv discussed In The Times. Mav 10, all resident Wash Intttnnlans should unite In an effort to squelch It. I. V. BOYCB. The Everlasting: Change Would Cost HenTlly In Efficiency. To the Editor of THE TIMES. My experience, as nn employer. Is that It requires at least one year to train an employe Into tho details of the office, and at least three years to become competent to fill all the needs of the position. The everlasting change that would probably result should the five-year tenure bill pass Congress would not only cost the Government heavily for the continual training of new clerks, but the efficiency of the service would be affected. What competent man would devote the best years of his life to r position that unfits him for any other, and would take the chance of being thrown out or office, nfter flve of the best years of his life had been devoted to its service? Who are the best Congressmen? Those who 1 ave served one term or those who have given their entire life to tho study or the country's legislations? Who make the mofet competent employes? Those who have served one to flve years or those who have been twenty flve years In the service? These are some points for your con sideration, Mr. Congressman. HENRY BREWOOD.

The monthly moating of tho District of Columbia Congress of Mothers will be held at the Ralelgh'Hotel at 2 o'clock this afternoon. Mrs. W. H. Holtxman, chairman of the social and badge com mittee, will have charge of the social program. Enactment of the Law Would Be Most Unfortunate For Washing ton. To the Editor of THE TIMES: Speaking only for myself I would re gard the enactment into law of the five-year tenure bill as most unfortunate for the city of Washington. Its effeot would be to make shifting and transient a large proportion of our population, which under present conditions of reasonable permanency of official ten ure are home buyers, and therefore an Important and desirable element of our citizenship. Trained employes are es sential to the successful conduct of any business and this. It seems to me, ap plies as much to the affairs of the Fed eral Government as to private concerns, and to my mind tne beet service cannot Manchester Ship Canal Eighteen Years Old Elghteeh years ago the Manchester ship canal was opened for commerce.

One year ago today Henri Berteaux. French min ister of war, was killed by a monoplane in Paris. t" A program for next year's work will be formulated at a meeting of the exec utive committee of the Monday Evening Club, June 3. The committee will con sider also plans for raising funds for carrying on the work of the organiza tion. A report on this subject Is to be submitted at the next meeting of the club, October 21.
