Taxes on the seYsuth-strsst Road.

In the case of Abner O. P. Shoemaker VS.. The
District Of Columbia, Justice Wylie delivered the
opinion Of the court. 1t bill to restrain the
District authorities from proceeding to sell the
property Of complainant under the certificates
of Indebtedness issued by the Board of Public
Works against the land abutting the Seventh
street road for the special improvement Of the
same. The board, authorized to improve to the
amount of 10000, had incurred an expense of
about elI5, 900. Lambert and Darlington for COM
plainant; Stanton and Cook for defendants. The
court held that it was proper case for equitable
interpretation; that It was not an irregular eIer-
else Of powers possessed by the board, but an
usurpation Of power not possessed; that the hands
Of public servants should be tied whenever they
attempt to transgress the legitimate bounds Of
their authority, and that II would have been bet
ter for the District and the community had they
been restrained long ago; that the assessment
and eeTtifates were . void proceeding, and that
the bill would be sustained and the injunc tion
sought would be granted Justices Macarthur
and Olin concurred in the decision; dissenting,
Chief Justice Cartier Judge Humphreys did
not sit upon the case. Amount involved about
