CASE ON TRIAL,
Ihe Issue Between Rival Factions of

The equity cases known as r. Harrison
Johnson and others against Samuel H.
Walker and others, and the Mutual Fire
Insurance Company of this District against
the same defendants, which were recently
consolidated. came on for hearing today be-
fore Justice Cole. The hearing was upon
the question of the dissolution Of the tempo
rary restraining order recently issued by
Justice Barnard regarding the election for
managers held by the company on January
10. The complainants, who comprise most
OF the old board of managers, aIlege that
by reason of certain resolutions, which they
claim were Improperly passed, they were
prevented from voting large number of
proxies held by them, which they assert
would have been sufficient to insure their
reelection They also charge that a con-
spiracy against them was formed by the
defendants
The defendants strenuouSly deny the
charge of want of regularity of the reso-
lutions and allege that if any conspiracy
has existed the complainants are respon-
sibie for the same by, it is said, attempting
to Keep themselves in office and in receipt
OF salaries by the use of old and often
invalid proxies.
The hearing will probably be concluded
tomorrow. Messrs. Samuel Maddox and
K. Ross Perry & Son represent the COM
plainants, while Messrs. A. S. Worthington

Response to Protest of AnacOstia Citi-
zenx' Association.


Messrs. N. H. Miller. A. B. Garden and
E. V. Stephenson. members of the railroad
committee of the Anacosta Citizens Asso-
citation, and several other residents of Ana
costa. called upon the District Commission
ers yesterday for the purpose of protesting
against the further use of the cars now be-
ing operated on the Anacostia railway.
They represented to the Commissioners
that while the people of Anacostia do not
object to the widening of the car tracks on
Monroe street, Anacostia, they do object to
the size of the cars now being run on the
road These cars, it was stated, are those
which were formerly run on the G street
line, being extremely wide and very heavy
1t was stated that the conductors on the
cars are required by the railway company
to- warn passengers not to put out their
heads or arms when passing over the struc-
ture.
If these cars are continued on the road
the Commissioners were further informed
1t will be practically impossible for vehicles
or ordinary size to pass between them and
the curb on Monroe street, or for vehicles
to stand on that street. Narrower cars. it
was said. would remedy the whole trouble
Capt Beach, the Engineer Commissioner
who has immediate supervision over such
matters, assured the delegation that the
whole matter will be at once investigated
and that If the conditions are found to be
as represented steps will be taken to re-
Qulre the railway company to take such
action as Will remove all complaint
