plication of the words "all other funds,

chapter SO, elsewhere quoted. gives, the
appearance of soundness to this conten-

Comptroller McCardy, however, takes
issue with this view. He says:
The general fund was not and never
has been used to pay teachers salaries.

account to another. Saloon licenses are

ACCIDENTS In 1899
FIGURES COMPILED By LABOR
COMMISSIONERS M'HALE ON THE
.oee 6.n,.Z SUBJECT
THE FATALITIES SINCE JAN.
Persons Have Lost
Their Liyes-The Largest Number
Were In Mines-Nature Of All the
Injuries That Have Been Re-
Which They Occurred.

Labor Commissioner McHale has made
a classification of the number of accidents
occursng in manufa curing establishments
that have been reported to his depart
ment since the first of the year. In all
twenty-eight people have lost their lives
through their own carelessness or defects
in machinery, although with acquisition
of the required safety devices the per-
centage has been reduced TO a minimum.
Discussing the matter yesterday he said
There have been received by the labor
bureau during the first nine months OF its
present administration. from Jan: to
Oct. l, 495 accident reports, ranging In
from >as bruised finger to loss of life.
Classified as to the extent of injury, the
following is. shown: Loss of life, 70; loss
Of limb II; fracture of limb, %; minor in
jury to limb, 294: injury to head or face,
so; injury to body, Al; loss of eye, /; in
jury to eye, 80; extent of injury not re-
ported II; total 1876.
Classified as to age the reports show
that the largest number of accidents be-
fall employees under twenty years of age,
not because employees below that age are
more numerous than those in the other
age divisions. but presumably because
they are less careful as well as less eX-
perienced. The largest percentage of ac-
cidents, however, is noted among en-
ployes who are fifty years old or over. as
twenty-nine such accidents have been re-
ported from the comparatively small
number of that age employed IN the es-
adjustments furnishing reports.
cit Is noticeable that of nearly 800 ac.
cidents only five pertain to women. OF
these two were injured by falling down
stairs in their respective places of en-
ployment one had her arm torn off by a
wringing machine in a laundry, while an
other had her arm severely injured by the
same kind of machinery, and another sus-
tanned injuries IN the machinery of
wooden mill
"Of the twenty-eight fatal accidents the
largest percentage comes from the iron
mines. where eight of nineteen accidents
reported We're fatal.

which indicated that he was runner for
a local Chinese policy firm, was arrested
ard locked up at No. station yesterday
morning by Policy Detective Watson. Sam
will be arraigned for a hearing in the Po-
lice Court this morning unless the usual
course of procedure in such cases is re-
sorted to by his friends. The arrest Of
the man was the result of a number of
complaints received by the police from
Christianly inclined Cinnamon that their
fellow -countrymen were gambling to an
unlimited extent. According to the COM
plants e certain resident of Chinatown,
known as the king of gamblers" has

which were wrapped about 25-cent pieces,
and other paraphernalia which the police
claim was discriminating. Some of the
slips bore red ink dots and characters on

Extrn Charges Not Illegal.

The District Commissioners have replied TO an
enquiry from r. A. Hales, of 1925 Twelfth Street
northeast relative to the right of express COM
panies to charge extra for deliveries within the
District beyond the city limits. They state, in
answering the enquiry, that the District limits
and the city limits do not coincide, explaining
that the city limits are marked by the Boundary
on the north and by the northern and western
limits Of the old corporation OF Georgetown,
which became part of the city OF Washington
by an act OF Congress approved February IL,
1895. The Commissioners state that the right of
express companies to charge extra for deliveries
within the District but beyond the city limits
is a matter wholly with the companies, and that
they know OF no law prohibiting the companies
from making such extra charges. Extra charges
are made in New York and other cities Tor de-
liyeries beyond certain limits.
