MOTOR VEHICLE.
Application for Permit to Run One
on Public Streets.

Application for Permit to Run One
on Public Streets.
Mr.. G. Edmonston wrote the District
Commissioners several weeks ago, inquir-
ing If there would be any objection on the
part of the municipal authorities to his
running a motor vehicle, driven by steam,
on the streets, and stated that ne thought
of purchasing one. Mr.. Edmonstou ex-
planned that the vehicle is practically noise
less, and he desired to know whether in
the event of his purchase of it, he would
be required to employ licensed steam en-
gineer If he should learn to operate 1t be-
fore purchasing it.
The Commissioners first referred the mat
ter to the board of examiners of steam en-
gineers, and the board reported that in its
opinion no one but a licensed steam engi-
neer should be allowed to operate the mo-
tor vehicle Next the matter was referred
to the superintendent of the water depart
ment, for advice as to whether there eX-
lists any practical necessity forVa licensed
or other engineer on the vehicle. In his re-
port Mr.. w. A Mcfarland, the superin-
tendent of the water department, explain
ed that the motive power Of the vehicle in
question consists of a gasoline burner
small vertical boiler with a large number
of fiues, and a pair of small vertical
gines driving a shaft and sprocket wheel.
and, by means of sprocket chain, the
rear axle of the vehicle. He further eX-
planned that the apparatus is simply an or
binary steam boiler and engine, and as
such, would no doubt be governed by exist
ing regulations restricting the of such
power.
At the same time, Mr.. Mcfarland said he
does not believe there is any practical ne
cesSity for requiring the employment of
regularly licensed engineer. The boiler is,
he stated, of excessive strength, and 1t is
claimed that the burning of the boiler re-
Sultng from low water causes only an
elongation Of the tubes and consequent
leakage through the lower crown sheet.
This claim, said Mr.. Mcfarland, seems to
be supported by accident which oc-
CURED here to motor belonging to Mr..
Foster. The flow of gasoline to the burner
sure in the boiler, Mr.. Mcfarland said some
knowledge of the properties of steam and
of gasoline should certainly be required on
the part of any one authorized to operate
these vehicles.
The Commissioners today disposed of the
matter by adopting the following recon-
mendations made by Commissioner Wight:
About two years ago, If l remember cor
rectly, the Commissioners received an ap-
plication for permission to run horSeless
vehicle operated by gasoline, which per-
mission they declined to grant, on the
ground that the machinery was likely to
make so much noise as to brighten horses
do not know that this machinery would
so operate, but it should be known before
permission is granted. So far having a
licensed engineer is concerned | would Sug-
gest that after Mr.. Edmonston has learned
to operate the machine he might himself
become licensed, the only expense involved
being fee of So

Temperance Women at Seattle Also
Object to MIR. Roberts
The national convention of the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union, in session At
Seattle, Wash, passed a series of resolu-
tons yesterday, some, of which caused
hours of discussion. The main fight was
over two resolutions, one censuring the
general government and the President. At
torney General Griggs and ex-Secretary of
War Alger, by name, for their action on
the anti-canteen law, and the other de-
nouncing the war in the Philippines
The opposition to the passage of the
resolution denouncing the war was led by
Mrs. Mary H. Hunt Of Massachusetts. who
lost son in the Philippines, while the pro-
resolution forces We're led by Mrs. Clara
Hoffman of Missouri and Mrs. K L. Ste
venson of Massachusetts. The resolutions
We're follows:
1--WE rejoice that the last year of the
nineteenth century witnessed the first in
ternatlOnal peace congress, and hail the
fact as a glad omen that during the CEN
fury upon which we are just entering inter-
national arbitration will be the only recog-
nfZed method for the settlement of interna-
ttonal complica lions.
I'VE deeply deplore the attitude taken by
our nation with respect to the Philippine
Islands, and, since governments can de-
rive their just powers only from the con-
policy which would compel a foreign PEG
pie to submit to the rule Of the United
States. and against a war through which
the administration is striving to enforce its
policy.
Eve protest against the manifestly I'M
just Interpretation of the anti-canteen law
as rendered by Attorney General Griggs
of the United States, upheld by ex-Secre-
tary of War Alger. We urge upon the chief
executive, VIM. Mckinley, of our nation as
commander-in-chiefo of our army and navy,
immediate consideration of the case which
will result in such action shall be in
accord with the expressed will of the people
and his own high oath of Office We pledge
ourselves to renewed efforts, through petit
lions, letters, personal appeals, public meet
ings, and all other just means, for the pass
age of the Grout bill, which will come be-
fore next Congress-
A resolution protesting against the seat
ing of Representative-elect Roberts was
adopted with cheers. 1t reads as follows:
Eve believe that by allowing Brigham H.
Roberts of Utah to retain a seat in the ma
tional House of Representatives a blow will
be struck at every home in land We
! therefore call upon our representatives to
see to it that the moral standing of their
honorable body shall not be impeached, and
we pledge ourselves to bring all possible
force to bear to prevent so great a national
the representa- tive-elect from Utah to re-
tain a seat in the chief council halls of the
nation"
Resolutions were also passed denouncing
immoral shows, offensive advertisements,
lynchings, demanding the ballot for women
and against trusts
All the national officers We're reelected.
A memorial service in memory of Frances
+. Willard was held and attended by an
