THE FEB SYSTEM.
mr. London's Letter Brings About
 Some Talk,
And His Figures Are Disputed
 at the Court House.

Mir. London s communication in yester- days AGE HERALD with regard to the fees received by some Of the Jefferson county officials was differently received by the different officers at the big court house. Some were indignant, while others were indifferent. All were unanimous in de- claring that Mir. London's figures were in- accurate.
 One official, in conversation with an AGE-HERALD reporter, said: sMr. Lon- don's card is full of inaccuracies. The salaries of the judges and solicitor he places too low. For instance, the two judges of the city court get S600O instead of s55O0, as stated by Mir, London. The so- licltor of the criminal gets s6000 for him. self and assistants, instead of S5000, and the judge gets SS0Co, instead of $25o0. This makes difference in the salary list of S2000 year more than MT. London's hg- ures show.
 ''Then as to the fees be gives the follow ing figures: Sheriff, SIP ,000 annually; judge of probate, S7000 to Sl0,000; clerk and reg ister of the city court, 5000 to SS000; clerk of the criminal court, 5000 to Ss0O0, to- tai of nearly S30, GOO year on the lowest estimate. These figures are entirely too large, fact that can be easily established by an inspection of the fee Dooks. Any one of the officials just mentioned would willingly exchange his fees for a salary very much less than MT. London says they get.
 ''As to the hospital being built by vol untary contributions, that is not true. Jefferson county paid s9o00, Birmingham paid se000 and the balance, ZIG, coo, was raised by subscriptions. There are num- Der Of other inaccuracies in MT. London 8 article equally as bad as those pointed ont.
 Another official said he had read MT. London's B letter, but did not care to dis cuss 1t, as there were hardly any correct statements in 1t. He said:
 ''Mr. London places the valuation of the taxable property in the county at about SAC, ,000, GOO, when in fact 1t is about SZS,- 000, GOO. But that is in keeping with some of his other statements.
 raised the valuation of the Eiyton com pany's property from $500, ,000 to S1, ,30o,- GOO. MT. London is the attorney for this company. For several days MT. London has been interviewing certain parties con- nected with the different offices about the court house in regard to the fees received.
 '"rhe AGE HERALD says editorially: fThere seems to be no law which can com pei these officials to make showing of their receipts, and as it is, it seems to be a matter of private business Fee books are kept and in these are entered all fees re- ceived by the officials named. These fee books are open for the public to inspect at any aud all times.'

THE SUBURBAN ROADS
Hearing Before House Committee on Ex.
tension of Time
Objections From the Columbia Road
ground Wires Mentioned.

The House District committee gave q
hearing this morning to the District Of CO.
lumbia Suburban Railway Company upon its
proposition to amend its charter by author
ling change Of route. Judge Davis, rep
resenting the suburban company, said the
purpose Of the proposed change Is to SIM
plify the route and throw both tracks on
one street This involves a change Of eight
squares. Instead Of turning into H street
at sth street northeast. and using the CO.
lumbia track. 1t is desired to continue on @
street to 18th northeast and abandon the
proposed line on e street
The Commissioners have recommended
that the road use the lexington tracks on
G street from 9Th to 9th northwest, and
then use the Metropolitan tracks down 9th
street to the market house.
President Stevenson Of the Metropolitan
company objected to the use Of the Metro
politan tracks on 9th street There are al
ready three companies using those tracks.
he said. and at times the traffic IL so con-
gested that 1t is difi1cultto move the Metro
politan cars.
Mr.. Nathaniel Wilson in behalf of the
Columbia railway opposed the extension Of
time Tor building the suburban road. The
time expires next July. This road proposes
to parallel the Columbia road within one
block OF IT. Moreover. there is another road,
the lexington. also paralleling the line.
the public interests do not require it.
Judge Davis replied that the necessity for
the new line is that 1t would terminate in
the center of the city-the business center
while the Columbia line is diverted into
New York avenue. AS a proof of this ss-
sertion he cited the fact that the hertics
now parallel the Columbia road, but terni-
nate in the business center, and they are
doing q good business.
Mr.. Wilson referred to the fact that the
suburban Company has been Incorporated
for two years. hut has done nothing yet
toward construction.
juice Davis replied that the severe win
ter of 1892 and 1893 prevented work. and the
financial depression Of last spring also cp-
Grated against 1t.
Mr.. Wilson said the Columbia Germany Is
willing to cooperate with the Suburban
Company by making a onc-fare arrange
ment for passengers over the suburban
portion of the Suburban Company's road
Mr.. Daniels said this proposition Is merely
to give the Suburban Company the tail of
the dog. No suburban road can operate
successfully without direct entrance to the
city and some city business.
Mr.. Richardson asked II the motive power
Of the proposed road had been considered.
to which Mr.. Daniels replied that the under
ground electric motor seems to be working
very well.
Judge Davis said the Suburban Company
Is not anxious to come down 9th street
That was proposed by the Commissioners
and not by the company. II the Metropoif-
tan people obteet, his company Is willing to
abandon the idea Of coming down to 9th
street.
