CAPT. BEACH'S POPULARITY
MANY KVIDKX'KS OF KSTKE* II*
WHICH HK IS HELD.
He fa DUrnuriiKlnK Any Action Look
lag to His Retention a*
Conint Inn inner.
The office of Capt. Lansing H. Beach, the
Engineer Commissioner, at the District
building was again besieged by callers this
morning, who came to pay their respects
and to offer their services to the captain In
any way he should name. Capt. Beach has
received many letters and numerous tele
grams from his friends and prominent
Washington business and professional men
now out of the city, all asking to be al
lowed to render him some service and ex
pressing regret at his proposed transfer
from the post of Commissioner. Capt.
Beach's popularity has received almost un
qualified expression, and he has been deep
ly touched by the tone of the communica
tions and the words of his callers.
Deftlres to Oliey Orders.
Capt. Beach has, of course, declined all
proffers of Intervention In his behalf. While
stating his appreciation of the many kind
expressions and the motives which prompt
the offers, Capt. Beach discouraged any
action on the part of his friends or the citi
zens generally looking toward his reten
tion. He impresses upon all the fact that
he is a soldier, and it is his duty and de
sire to obey orders and not to attempt their
revocation.
In spite of this, however, it Is known that
many prominent men. Including senators
and representatives, are In communication
with the President, asking that Capt. Beach
be allowed to remain as Commissioner at
least until the many Important projects
which he has In hand are a little further
advanced. Capt. Beach has made Journeys
to many cities of late to Investigate munici
pal Institutions of a character similar to
the several which have recently been au
thorized by Congress for establishment
here, and It Is urged that to let these mat
ters drop now, or be taken up by another
officer, who will necessarily have to go over
the same ground, means a heavy financial
loss and an Indefinite delay.
Aetlon of Business Hen.
At a meeting of the board of directors of
the Business Men's Association held yes
terday afternoon resolutions of regret at
the proposed relief of Capt. Beach ^^re
passed and forwarded at once to the Presi*
dent. In these resolutions it was stated
that the directors of the association, num
bering a large proportion of the business
community of this city, learned, with the
deepest regret, of the order transferring
Capt. I^ansing H. Beach, Engineer Com
missioner of the District of Columbia, from
his present post of duty; and it is the sense
of tho board that Commissioner Beach has
evinced throughout his service a faithful,
zealous and impartial regard for the wel
fare and interests of the citizens of Wash
ington.
The resolutions further recite that it is
the opinion of the board of directors, act
ing without any desire whatsoever to re
flect upon the high abilities and unques
tioned attainments of the officer named to
succeed Commissioner Beach, that the re
moval of Commissioner Beach at this time,
when so much work of great concern to the
public welfare has been Inaugurated under
his direction, and particularly such Import
ant Improvements as are tinder way and
are contemplated In our sidewalk, street
and sewer system, and In a variety of other
projects to which he has given his unremit
ting attention and careful supervision,
would work an irreparable injury to the
taxpayers of the District of Columbia.
