but it can and ought to own every conduit
and subway in the public streets.
When the District owns the conduits il will
be in receipt of all the revenues to be de-
rived from the use of the subways, and
will then be able to permit all companies
to compete for the privilege OF laying wires
therein for public and private lighting as
well as for telephone service, without in
Jury to the streets or inconvenience to the
public.
Until this plan can be carried out, the
Commissioners recommend that they be
authorized to advertise for proposals. and
to rent to the highest responsible bidder. the
exclusive privilege of laying and maintain
ing conduits In the public streets and alleys
of the District, for period or thirty years;
the eonduits to be constructed in accordance
with plans to be approved by the Conn.,
missioners and under their supervision, re-
serving sufficient number OF ducts for the
use of all public wires. and providing that
the conduits shall belong to the District at
the expiration of said period
The Commissioners submit herewith, as
substitute for all pending bills to charter
telephone, electric light, or gaslight COM
panies. bill to carry out their views and
to prohibit the laying of any additional con-
duits in any street, road. or avenue, In
the District except under the provisions Of
said bill, and providing that whenever
conduit is laid in any public street, road, or
avenue, under the authority OF said pro-
posed act, all wires on or over such street,
road, or avenue shall be removed or placed
therein within thirty days from the CON-
pletion OF such conduit under penalty of
S5 per day for each and every pole that
shall remain on such street road, or avenue,
after the expiration of said thirty days.
PROFITS IN EXCESS.
And providing further that the Washing
ton Gas Light and the Georgetown Gas
Light Companies shall hereafter, as COM
pensation for their use of the pablic streets,
divide with the District OF Columbia all
profits in excess of six per centum per an
mum on the amount of the capital stock
actually paid up in cash.
Said bill further provides for the right
to purchase all existing conduits by con-
sent of the several owners; and reserves
to the Commissioners the right to reject
any and all bids.
Another important feature Of-the suhsti-
tute bill is that reducing the price OF gas
to 81 per thousand, in accordance with
previous recommendation of the Commits
sioners, with ten per cent reduction for
prompt payment, and providing more
stringent requirements for pure gas Two
inspectors are asked for to aid in enforcing

The touch OF an electric button Illuminated
last evening at the hall of the Washington
Light Infantry one OF the most brilliant
social pictures ever presented 10 the people
OF Washington.
The Hebrew fair in aid of building fund
for new Jewish temple, which IT is pro-
posed to erect, was there inaugurated under
the most attractive conditions and in an
environment hard to match in its roetical
beauty and suggestions. The management
can already be judged by its work and can
be congratulated in advance ON the happy
and successful result of this grand under
taking.
There was evidence enough of this in the
great crowds which were present TO launch
the fair on its brilliant career. The hall
was filled from p. m. until near midnight
with about as animated and interesting
throng as one would care To witness.
The hall has been utilized to great advan-
