The attorney for the District has advised
the Commissioners to recommend unfavor-
able action on Senate bill 1911. authorizing
the recorder Of deeds and the clerk of the
District Supreme Court to make abstracts
OF title, etc. While the title of the bill,
states the attorney, purports merely to con-
fer authority, the measure itself is manda-
tory and requires that these respective off,
GERS shall make or cause to be made alb
stracts of title of any piece or parcel Of
land in the District.
1.-THE insuperable difficulty" says the at
torney, with the proposed legislation, the
object of which is quite desirable, is that
in neither the office of the recorder Of deeds
nor of the clerk of the court is there
property index The induces in both of
these offices contain merely names, and not
the subject matter to which they refer. In
the absence of a property index it would
be a physical impossibiity for either of
these officers to comply with the require
ments Of the bill. Under these circum-
stances 1 am of the opinion that the bill
should not receive your favorable recon-
mendatton.'

MORA REMOVED FROM OFFICE.
Fiscal of the Havana Supreme Court
in Disgrace.

Gov. Gen Wood of Cuba yesterday handed
the following official order to Senior Mora,
fiscal of the supreme court at Havana:
Federico Mora, fiscal Of the supreme
court, is hereby removed from office for
the good of the public service. This re-
moval is the result of an investigation into
the conditions existing in the administra
ton of justice under his supervision
Senior Mora's fall had been predicted ever
since the first case was brought against
the custom house officials, and the dis
graceful condition Of the prisons, especially
as affecting those awaiting trial, had been
generally charged against him.
1t was common report that Mora devoted
too much attention to social affairs and
too. little to his duties.
Gen Woods investigation showed that
the office of the supreme court fiscal was
largely responsible for number of the I'M
tried cases, and that not only Mora, but
others in the department Of justice. had
been persistently trying TO block the charges
against customs officials whom Collector
Bliss is anxious to prove guilty of whole
sale bribery and corruption.
