nopolized by clubs which have contracts

club, all but one of which is composed of
both ladies and gentlemen. Thursday aft

Colds md Pneumonia.

The influenza microbe which has been SO
officiously active during the continued
rainy weather will probably be forced to
cease operations with the coming of the
clear and colder weather promised by Mr..
Wappenhans for to-day. The physicians
say that bad colds have rarely been so
prevalent as at present. Pneumonia is also
alarmingiy on the increase. 1t is q curious
fact shown by the death returns that only
about one-fifth of the deaths from this
cause are those OF women The apparently
robust laborer is the most frequent victim.
The State Board OF Health also reports q
heavy increase of typhoid, supposed to be
due 10 the moist weather conditions.

A Hearing on the Bill for the I

A Hearing on the Bill for the Ex-
tension of Underground COnduits.
Senator McMillans bill providing for
the extension CT Underground conduits IN
the District of Columbia was the subject
of a hearing at the District Buiidiag yes
terday morning. The bill is brief. but the
question with which 1t deals is an ex-
tYemely important one.
o. It. Crosby, the president Of the Po-
tomac Electric Light and Power Com
pany was the first to be heard by the
Commissioners. He said that the bill in
its present form is entirely sat sfactory
to the company which he represented.
The United States Electric Lighting
Company was represented by James l..
Norris, its president, and Attorney T. A.
Lambert. In their opinion, the b Il in its
present form is incomplete and does not
enter sufficiently into details s..
Conrad II. Syme spoke in behalf Of the
Business Mems Association. favoring the
bill. W. S. Knox, president of the Busi-
ness Mems Association. and n. Dyren-
forth. Of the same association, wei e pres
ent at the hearing, as We're also Law
renee Gardner and Superintendent Mar
low, of the United States Electric Light
ing Company.
The Mcmillan bill provides that all
overhead electric lighting and power
wires within the fire limits shall be taken
down and placed in conduits. 1t provides
further that the Commissioners shall
have pienary power to allow either OF the
local electric lighting companies to ex-
tend their conduits. within the limit.
either to enter new territory or to par
allel existing conduits.
No limitation whatever is placed on the
authority of the Commissioners as to the
extent to which they may go in granting
permits for the construction OF such coll
duits, and in this respect the policy which
will be inaugurated by the passage OF
the bill will be radically different from
that which has been pursued In the past,
inasmuch as Congress has. from the time
of the passage of the first local electric
lighting bill, permitted only such specific
extension of lines as might be provided
in the appropriation bills. Almost every
resident of the city recalls the hard fight
which was made by the Potomac Elec-
trio Light and Power Company TO extend
Its conduits east of Rock Creek into the
city.
One OF the consequences of the passage
of the bill will be a rush on the part of
rival companies TO secure permits for eX-
tensions. The bill will permit either COM
pany TO parallel the other, and in this
way it Is expected that there viii be a
brisk endeavor on their part to compete
in Offering power and light at reduced
rates

RELEASED ON A BOND.
Morris Goldberg to Await tic Action
of the Grand Jury.

of the Grand Jury.
Morris Goldberg, who is charged with
house-breaking, was yesterday released
on $500. bond to await the action of the
grand jury. The accused is the father OF
Charles Goldberg. who was indicted by
the grand jury on a similar charge. the
boy being accused of robbing the stores
of James L. Topham and Julius Kauf-
man in November last.
When arraigned on the charge, Charles
Goldberg pleaded guilty, but he has sta
ted since that it was under misappre-
hension that he did so. He denies that
he had anything to do with the robber-
les, but admits that he purchased the
stolen property, a great deal of which
was found in his possession when he was
arrested. He said he was under the i'm
precision that he was pleading TO the
charge of receiving stolen goods, and not
house-breaking, when he was arraigned.
