APPEAL SUSTAINED.
Issue of q Permit for Erection of q
Dwelling.

The Commissioners nave acted fayorably
upon the appeal recently taken by Attorney
Wilton j. Lambert on behalf Of Mr.. Charles
II. Perry from a decision of the building
inspector in the matter of the issuance of a
permit for the erection of a dwelling at
Brightwood. and have directed that Mr..
Perry be granted the desired license, pro-
Vided the proposed structure is made to
conform to building regulations.
MT Perry short time since purchased a
lot fronting upon proposed Niagara street,
intending to build home thereon, but
upon application permit to build was re-
FUSED because no subdivision appeared of
record for the property. and such sub
division, the surveyor for the District held,
could not be made until Niagara street
was definitely located by condemnation or
dedication.
From this and the ruling of the building
inspector Mr.. Lambert took the appeal,
contending that unless the permit were
granted property owner in the county
might be required to pay taxes upon land
upon which. because not sufficient for the
dedication of a street he would not be
permitted to erect home or revenue pro-
ducing improvements

Circuit Court No. 1-Chief JUSTICE Bin,
CONTROLLER DECIDES,
Opinion Respecting Use of Alleged
Gas-SavinE Device.

A gas-saving concern recently proposed
to the District Commissioners to equip the
police station houses with a special class Of
burners and automatic meters, agreeing to
accept as compensation, it is said, one half
of the amount saved on the gas bills
Doubling their authority to accede to such
proposal on account of that section Of the
statutes referring to purchases and con-
tracts by the government, which provides
that all such agreements shall be first adj
vertsed for sufficient time to give all per-
sons or firms engaged in the business of
furnishing the desired supplies an oppor-
tunity to also submit proposals if they so
desired, the opinion Of the controller Of the
treasury was requested. The controller
states that in his opinion the section should
be complied with in this instance, and after
such compliance he could see no reason
why the proposal should not be accepted,
