STOLL'S "810" SEVENTH,
FIRST PROTEST ON RECORD
Donald McPlierson Objects to tbe
Metropolitan Line Extension. '
Totally Iiuuleqiiiite and "Wholly Un-
Mit factory .for Furninhlns
Ildilwny Facilitien.
Chaiiman McSlUlan has a letter from
Mr. Donald McPlier.on in regard to tin;
proposed oMonhlon or the Metropolitan
street car line from the Boundary ' Out
Columbia road i Eighteenth street. He
is the rust to object to the project as set
out in the bill, and liN objection is that
not nearly enough improvement is pro
Mded for. He :Hys:
I wrote for the purpose of showing th.it
it is totally inadequate and wholly un
satisfactory for furnishing railway fa
cilities Tor a very large community and
territory, and which should be included
in this bill and at this time unninifllon
ably. The bill, far as it goes if Merid
ian Hill is to le disregarded and neglected
may be all right in furnishing facilltes
for ""Washington Heights Hut the charter
should be much more extensive.
"Beginning at the road's intersection at
Columbia road or Connecticut avenue with'
riorida avenue the line should go due north
ward on Columbia road to Eighteenth street
to be extended as shown by the new map of
the Commissioners; thence due northward
on Eighteenth street to noward avenue
In Mount Pleasant, and thence in the di
rection and to the extent that may be
agreed upon by the Commissioners, pro
vided it i- deemed aliable to go beyond
Howard avenue at this time, to terminal
facilities.
"ThN extension is decidedly important
in furnishing proper and needed facilities
to all Lanier Heights, a 1 arge part or Met id
ian Hill, the "Walbridge subdivision or Ingl -side,
Brown's subdivision of Ingleside and
Mount Pleasant; and also the Denison
and Leighton subdivision of-Eslire. This
will cover properly t,he -whole locality be
tween the Park and Fourteenth street not
adequately supplied by the Fourteenth
street line without encroaching on Its Tair
or legitimate domain.
"Second, This extension would give
direct and easy access to the Zoological
Park at Kcncsaw avenue intersection for
all the patrons of the whole Metropolitan
linos one "or the great arguments for an
extended charter. The distance of said
intersection or Eighteenth street with Ken
csaw aenue from the park is only about
1100 feet. Tins would be as accessible
as any railroad entrance can be made
without a disagreeable and expensive loop.
Tor tho present it would answer every pur
pose. "All persoiis go by Connecticut ave
nue afoot, of course, on leaving tlie car.
Heretofore no railway fhaiter has been
been consideied extending 110rthwnnr-th.it
failed to reach the park and Mount rie.is
ant. "The whole right of way excepn 350
or .T75 feet is already opened, or will be
dedicated, and to obtain so valuable a
charter of about a mile and a, halt ought
to require tlie company to condemn so .small
an ajnouiit. otherwise, the clamor urging
the 6ale of such j all way stocks becomes
invalid.
"Besides tills requirement wllU contrib
ute to the carrying out of the plan of street
extension. This street should be projected
regardless of the condition or fate of tlie
street extension law. It needs to go through
in order to open up direct and impoitant
north und south communication to all
northern territory. ""
"If proper facilities for this locality
were furnished as valuable an extension
and extensiveimprovements would be made
here as in Columbia or Washington Ileiglits.
A railway charter in Eighteenth sireet ex
tended to Mount Pleasantshould be granted
to the Metropolitan or the Traction Com
pany. One should be required to extend
at once." ,-,
Remains. Sent to Philadelphia.
The remains of "William Hawkins, col
ored, who came here last week from
Philadelrfliia and died of blood poisoning
at tlie Emergency Hospital on Saturday,
have been sent to that city for burial.
Hawkins was an inmate of a Philadel
phia hospital, but left the institution too
soon and blood poisoning set in.
Williams May Recover.
James "Williams, colored, who shot his
wife and then himself several days ago on
Washington street, Is reported to be im
proving at the Emergency Hospital. His
wife is out of danger. If tiie liusband
recovers lie will have -to face two charges
of assault to kill.

"Mr "VVv 'Xj Stevens, superintendent iof
the bathing beach, preferred a request
to tlie Commissioners today for the de
tail of at least two police officers for
duty at tho 'tidal reservoir to protect
skaters Who frequent tho pool frpm the
dangerous points along thttskRllng,s,urfaeo;
Mr. gtcvens filed a .written report stat
Ing"thtit on Saturday -tlx poisons went
through the ice there, and one was ho
nearly drowned that 1m; yas carried to the
Emergency TTpspital ror'tijatnient-
It seems to be urgently necessary, hc
says, that police officers be assigned
there at once.-Twith instructions to make
their headquarter "tn tlie beach
office. One of -these, he suld, should
serve from 8 o'clock a. 111. till 4 p. m.,
and the other from -1 o'clock until the ice
and promises are cleared of patrons and
tramps for the night-
Mr. Stevens also suggested that the po
lice should be inuructed to arrest any one
who persists In throwing stones, sticks-,
balls or other missiles dangeious to per
sons scattered over the skating space. Also,
they should arrest any one: for disorderly,
conduct, and for the use of profane or
unscenu language;. or for burning or other
wise injuring the beach property- -
