res adjudicata and not again to be
considered by the courts. The situation
has been entirely changed by the law OF
1883. above quoted.
The only other point made by Mr.. Will
son In his late brief, and by the brief filed
by the counsel in the case before the gen.
eral term, is that inasmuch as the capital
stock OF the banks was invested in Gov
eminent bonds the entire capital was ex-
>ennpt from taxation under section 3701 OF
the Revised Statutes of the United States
which is as follows:
All stock, bonds, Treasury notes and
other obligations of the United States
shall be exempt from taxation by or un-
der State or municipal or local authority.
Whatever force this argument might
properly have had in 1850 would seem to
the Commissioners not to apply to the
situation in 1888.
Recent information obtained from the
Comptroller of the Currency shows that
the capital of the twelve national banks
in the District of Columbia aggregate in
amount the sum of So or, 600; their sur
plus is reported to amount to 81, 1856, 600;
their undivided profits 35.326,OOi. The
amounts invested in Government bonds,
shown by the said report, by the said
twelve banks aggregate the sum of 81 ZIG,
400 These facts show that the situation
is entirely changed in every regard since
the hearing of the cause in general term
in 1880; and 1t appears to the Commission
ers that they would be utterly derelict In
the duty imposed upon them by their oath
OF office if they were to fail to require the
assessor to again list for taxation the
| capital stock of the national banks of the
District in order that the question may
be readjudicated upon the facts and the
amendments to the law which exist at
this time"

ers, not TO exceed the rate of 100 gallons
per capita of inmates per day; and for
all water used beyond such an amount the
institution shall be charged at the pre-
vailing rate for the use of water in the
District"
The opinion of the attorney is as fol-
lows
THE above bill carries an appropria-
ton of 81, 600 for the Hope and Help Mis-
sion an abbreviatioD, I am told by Mr..
Petty. the auditor, OF the Florence Crit
tenden Hope and Help Mission. This be-
ing so. 1t is not TO be charged for water
rent. except as above provided"
After receiving the opinion of Mr..
Thomas, Engineer Commissioner Beach
forwarded the papers to the Commission
ers with the Recommendation that the
authorities OF the mission be informed
that If they place water meter in the
premises 80 as to determine the amount
Of 100 gallons per capita, the amount al
lowed by law can be furnished them
without charge. Until the meter is plac-
ed, however. there being no means of de-
termining the amount allowed by law,
Capt. Beach states that 1t will be neces-
sary to charge water rent.

FREEDMAN'S HOSPITAL.
The Bonrd of Visitors admit That
DIR. Curtis Erred.

Secretary Bliss, who has jurisdiction on
the part of the Government over Freed
mans Hospital, yesterday transmitted to
the Commissioners of the District copy
of the report recently submitted to him
by the board of visitors of the institution,
in which reference is made to the stand
taken by Health Officer Woodward about
a month ago relative to certain omissions
on the part of DR.. Curtis, the surgeon in
chief of the institution in observing the
law for the prevention of the spread Of
disease in the District.
The position assumed by the health Off
Ger was recently sustained by an opinion
rendered by the attorney for the District
and the hospital authorities In their re-
port also admit that they have erred in
the matter through a misconception of
the law.
In transmitting the report of the board
of visitors Secretary Bliss says IN part:
THE attention of the surgeon in chief
of the hospital has been called to the
dereliction of duty complained of and in
the future he will strictly comply with
the requirements of the law IN every re-
spect.
"The health officer had complained to
the Commissioners that the Freedman's S
Hospital authorities had, on September Is,
| last, turned away from Its doors one
| William Davis a young colored boy who
was suffering with diphtheria, such action
| being contrary TO the regulations of the
| District, and that Furthermore the fact
| of the existence of such a case was not
reported to the health office by that in
stitution. which is also required by law.
1.-The report of the board of visitors to
the Secretary says that, although the
| failure to detain the suspected case of
diphtheria and notify the health office,
/ was undoubtedly a violation of the act
to prevent the spread of contagious dis
| eases, yet IL appears that the medical off,
| GERS of the hospital, by a misunderstand-
ing of the effect of the act of 1890, and the
| regulations of the health office approved
| February u, 1898, relative thereto, be-
lieyed they were relieved from the re-
| sponsibility of reporting the case which
they supposed had been done by the ply
sicians who had had the case in charge
We have admonished the surgeon in chief
| and after conference with him and the
health officer, we are persuaded that
| there will be no recurrence of this error
| Referring TO the suspected smallpox
| case named in the letter of DR.. Wood
ward, we find that DR.. Curtis never saw
the case and was not informed of it until
the next day, the inferno who saw the
| case, and who is no longer connected with
| the institution, having acted upon his
own motion, and in violation of positive
instructions. by failing to call the sur
| geon in chief and by taking upon himself
the unauthorized responsibility of dis.
missing the case without remark or no.
| tice."
