DAMMING UP ROCK CREEK.
Complaint Relative 60 the Dunp in
TNventy-Fourth street.

On complaint OF Albion K Paris. rela-
tive TO dumping refuse on the south side
Of Rock Creek. the District Commissioners
recently ordered an enquiry into the facts.
Lieut. r. b. Boyle. Of the Third precinct.
metropolitan police. 10 reporting on the
matter, stated that the dumping com
planned Of was In the line Of Twenty
fourth Street. He also stated that the all l.
ing had been carried so close 20 the bank OF
the creek that any further deposit OF ashes
or dirt would aci as q means Of Camming the
water course. Lieutenant BOYLE suggested
either that The dumping be stopped or the
stream protected by q wall Or fence.
After the matter had been referred back
70 the Commissioners. Captain Breach rec
ommended thar. if possible. the dumping
be discontinued. on she ground that IT'S
continuation would tend 10 create danger
in time OF food by the backing up OF the
water into Geological Park. he suggested
that the-records in she case BY submitted
to Attorney Duvau to oscertlin whether
the Commissioners had authority to order
the practice stopped.
The opinion Of the Attorney has lust
been received BY the Commissioners. in
which he cites an ordinance OF the late
corporation Of Washington lWCbb's Digest.
34ll which provides as follows:
1T shall not be lawful for any person or
persons TO deposit earth on the east side Of
Rock Creek within the limits OF this cor
poration. without having first made wall
sufficiently strong TO prevent the same from
falling into the water OF said creek. such
persons shall keep the said wall in re-
pair and FOR any iufraction Of these provi-
sions fine OF so shall be imposed upon
the offender, TO be recovered in the manner
that other fines imposed by this CORPORA
tion are one-half OF which shall De for
the use OF the person informing. and the
other half for the use Of the corporation. @"
Attorney Duvan gives il as his opinion
that the above ordinance is stlI in force
and applicable TO the present instance. He
believes the owners Of the land should be
notiHed Of its provisions and, upon failure
10 comply Herewith, should be prosecuted
in the Police Court He holds that the
Commissioners have authority to act in the
premises. particularly in the line OF the
street referred 10.
Il IS understood that the Commissioners
will act in the matter as advised by their
Attorney.
