M ORE TIME EDED
New Assessment Of Property Will Not Be
Completed in January.
The Permanent Board Asks for More
T1me-The Many Duties De.
volving ON Them.

It was stated some time ago in The Star
that the board Of permanent assessors had
found 1t an impossibiAty to complete ,he
new assessment of property by the first
Monday in January, 1896, and that Con-
gress would be asked to extend the time to
June 80. 1895.
This statement of facts was borne out
today in the following letter Of the as
sistant assessors to Assessor Trimble:
1.-The law creating the board of assistant
assessors requires that the board shall, on
or before the first Monday In January, 1896.
and every third year thereafter, make and
deliver to the assessor of the District Of
Columbia a return in tabular form Of the
amount description and value Of the real
property subject to be listed for taxation
in the District Of Columbia; that said
board shall determine from actual view
the value of each separate tract or lot Of
real property in lawful money. To do this
properly, and as required by law, and
make the return by the first Monday in
January. 1885, will be physically in:pos-
sible, and the board requests that Congress
be asked for an extension Of time to June
80. 1896
carry out the law passed March 2. 1895
The board began Its work March q, 1885,
and has been constantly in the field. ex-
cept when performing duties as an excise
view. Five weeks Of time were occupied
by the board assessing new buildings con-
structed in the District for the year end
ing June 80, 1895, which must be returned
to the assessor by July LIST OF each year.
when 1t is understood that there are
69k square miles of territory in the Dis
trict Of Columbia, every piece or lot OF
which must be assessed from actual view,
and the further fact that five weeks CT the
time. from March to January, 1895. were
taken up in assessing new buildings, and
the additional duty involved as an excise
board, there being $50 retail and I76 whole
sale places under its supervision, 1t will
readily be understood how Impossible 1t
Will be to make the return, as required, by
January. 1896 The excise board will have
to consider, in November of this year, the
question of granting renewal of license
to all of the above places, and this, of ne
cessity, will require much time and care
full consideration"

MIR. MORTON'S Loss.
How n Negro Thief Secured New
SILK Hat.

How Negro Thief secured u New
Silk Hat.
Mr.. J. B. Morton, chief clerk at army
headquarters, reports something new In
the way Of robbery, of which he was the
victim. 1t occurred on an open cable car
of the avenue line Wednesday evening.
The car was crowded with passengers, and
be had an end seat. AS it was nearing the
turn at the corner of 1st and B streets,
just opposite the Israel NJ. E. Church,
colored man jumped on the footboard near
where Mr.. Morton sat, entirely unsuSpicious
of the designs upon him. The man said
and as Mr.. Morton turned slightly to see
who he was addressing, he suddenly
snatched his silk hat from his head, jumped
off the car, and darted swiftly down 1st
street toward Virginia avenue AS he ran
donned his newly acquired headgear. Mr..
Morton's ankles are not strong. and he did
not like to risk jump from the car as it
Witty rounded the curve He stopped it
as soon possible, however, and started
off in pursuit of the thief, but it was a
hopeless chase, and he soon gave 1t UP.
What made the loss especially aggravating
to Mr.. Morton was that he had just pur-
chased the hat at cost of five dollars. He
reported the case to the police. He says he
doesn't want the hat back but that he
had a good look at the man during his
brief stop on the car, and is confident of
mis- ability to identify him. Thefts of this
kind are exceedingly rare in this vicinity
and the police authorities will endeavor to
prevent them altogether.

A Fire Escape Question,

An interesting question has just been de-
cided by the attorney for the District, reia-
tive to the liability of owners of property
for the erection of fire escapes. Gen. Peter
Bacon was recently given notice to put up
a fire escape on his building at the corner
of Ith street and Pennsylvania avenue.
He says the property is owned by him,
but only the upper floors are occupied by
the hotel, the management of which he has
nothing to do with. The notice was evil
IDENTIFY served on the assumption that the
building was part of the hotel, and Mr..
Bacon desired to know his liability In the
premises.
The attorney says the fire escape law Is
addressed to owners and lessees, and, as
Gen. Bacon is neither the owner or lessee
of the American House. he is not required
to erect fire escapes. The matter will, he
says, have to be attended to by the lessees
when they come to renew their hotel Il
cense on the first of next November.

Georgetown would be entertained, and that
the $4,000 raise was not a necessity. He
asks for proposition from the citizens of
Georgetown. Manager Phillips is anxious
to have the road built, and is clothed with

that meeting of citizens OF Georgetown
will be called to discuss the project form

ploughs through hills The construction

will open up wide area of country here
