DISTRICT GOVERNMENT.
LIEN CERTIFICATE CLAIM.


In 1879 an act of Congress was passed au-
tborizing the payment of special assessmeu;
due the District with interest at the rate OF c
per cent per annum in lieu of 10 per cent.
Under a misconception of this law the
cashier of the special assessment division re-
ceived payment of special assessments, with in
terest at per cent, in a number Of cases not
due the District, but due the First National
Bank of New York as holder of the lien certif-
Gates Upon the adjustment of the accounts
between the special assessment division
and the bank demand was made by the latter
for the difference between the 6 per cent coll
lected and the 10 per cent due 10 them. This
claim was rejected by the Office as there
no provision under the law BY which
it could be even entertained After a long
correspondence a suit was instituted and de-
cided in favor of the bank. A letter from the
bank TO the Commissioners recently stated that
three cases were omitted from that suit.
as they were in process of settlement
under another action at that time, aud
the attorney stated that if the District would
authorize the payment of the difference in
drawback certificates under the act of June Q.
1890, they would be accepted in settlement
could be made, and if SO if interest
should be allowed on the amount Of the claim,
was sent to the attorney of the District for his
opinion. Yesterday in a report to the Commits
sioners upon the case he says he thinks that the
bank is entitled to the interest claimed in this
matter.

Grade Crossings on City Streets.

from the Phiiadelpnla Irese-
The Reading railroad is making preparations
to abolish all its grade crossings on its line
from 9th aud Green to Nicetown. This will be
q great improvement and is in line with the
progressive and enlightened policy which char
acterizes the present management of that COM
pany. II its reform shall also include the aboli-
ton Of the grade crossings west of Broad
street on Pennsylvania avenue and in front of
the park, it will win the heartfelt eulogies of a
grateful people. This line of reform carried
out on the line Of the North Penn branch of
the Reading would have prevented the fatal
collision between q street car and Q Reading
engine at Columbia avenue and American
street on Sunday night. Railroads should not
be permitted to cross the busy streets Of q
city at grade; Philadelphia should allow mo
more such crossings to be created and the ex-
listing roads should engage in laudable COM
petition for popularity by Kidding the city OF
the grade crossings heretofore established. 1t
is pleasant to note that there is to some extent
q competition in this direction between our
two leading railroads.

Mr.. Charles Baum Of this city spoke of the
necessity for a more suitable edifice for the use
Of the Washington congregation. 1t had been
thought wise to erect here q fine temple
that would suitably represent Judaism
at the nations capital. He, there
fore. offered resolution to the effect that
the Washington congregation solicit aid from
the members of this union in carrying out
this plan. The president was of the
opinion that the resolution referred
| to q matter outside of the purposes
for which the union was organized. He would,
therefore, be obliged to rule it out Of order.
Mr.. Bettmann said that while he hea, tily an.
proved the purpose Of the resolution. yet be
did not approve Of the union taking action, al
| in his opinion such an appeal ought to 20 to
the individual congregations.
As objection was made Mr.. Baum said that
be would withdraw his resolution, which be &C.
cordingly did.
1t was decided to hold the ne It meeting il
New Orleans in December. 1894.
