DELINQUENT TAX SALES.
A Bill to be Submitted to Congress by
the District Commissioners,

The needs ola law regulating the sales of
property for delinquent taxes has long been
apparent. The matter was called to the atten-
ton Of the Commissioners some time ago, as
stated In The STAR at the time, by Collector
Davis, who urged the drafting of bill to be
presented to Congress asking for the desired
legislation. Today the Commissioners drew
the following bill. which they will submit to
Congress at an early day:
Be it enacted, &C, that the Commissioners Of
the District of Columbia shall prepare a list of
all taxes real property said District subject
to taxation upon which said taxes are levied and
IN arrears on the first day of july
1889. and each and every year thereafter
intending all taxes due TO the late corporation
of Washington city. Georgetown, the Lew
Court of the county OF Washington and the Dis
trict of Columbia. And said Commissioners
shall publish the same. with notice of sale in a
p Imphlet, of which not less than three thousand
copies shall be printed for distribution to tax
payers applying therefor, and list of said
property hall be printed and published once
in a daily newspaper published in the
to exceed the sum of twenty cents
for each parcel of property SO adver-
tIsed. Said Commissioners on the third
tuesday in March, 1890, and the third Tuesday
iii March of each year thereafter give notice
by advertising twice a week for three sue
cessive weeks in the regular issue of two daily
newspapers published in said District that
said pamphlet has been printed and
that copy thereof be delivered to
any tax payer duly applying there
for at the Office of the said Commissioners
and that if the taxes due, together with
the penalties and costs that may have accrued
thereon. shall not be paid prior to the
day fixed for sale the property will be sold
under the direction of the said Commissioners
at public auction at the Office of the collector
OF taxes for the District of Columbia, COM
meucIng three weeks after the first publication
of the said notice and continuing on each fol-
lowing day, Sundays and legal holidays ac-
cepted, until all said delinquent property is
sold.

consistent herewith are hereby repealed"

THE HALL OF RECORDS,
The Bill for Its Erection Passes the
Senate

In the Senate this afternoon Mr.. Vest called
up the bill for the purchase Of g site and the
erection OF . hall of records. The bill was
passed very promptly. but Mr.. Reagan moved
to reconsider and made q proposition to put
the building on public reservation
He said that the sites he had in mind were that
by the side of the Department of Justice or
that by the Center market
Mr.. Teller opposed the use Of reservation
for the purpose of public buildinga He
thought the site could be purchased.
Mr.. Morrill, said that several public build.
ings were needed in Washington. and 70 talk Of
putting them on public reservations was pre-
posterous.
The whole south side Of Pennsylvania avenue
from the Treasury to the Botanic garden
should be purchased for sites for these build
ings.
Mr.. Plat said that several buildings were
needed. 1--WE are providing" he said, '.for
buildings in other places, large towns and small
towns. and do not oppose it, but
it seems to me that we are neelecting
what seems to be necessary in Washington
The Post Office department, the city
post Office and the Interior depart
ment were terribly over-crowded, besides
many bureaus of the government being
In inadequate rented quarters. He thought
new buildings should be provided. If the
country comprehended the rapid growth CT the
business OF the government there would be no
opposition to the appropriation for the neces-
sary buildings at the capital
After some further discussion the bill was
passed,
