OVERHEAD WIRES.
Permissible When Advantageous to
the District.


the District.
A. B. Duvall, the attorney for the Dis
trict, has submitted an opinion to the Dis
trict Commissioners in which he holds that
1t Is legal to erect poles in certain in
stances for the stringing Of overhead wires,
to be used jointly by the telephone COM
pany and the electric department Of the
District. The matter came up on a recon-
mendation from the electrical engineer of
the District that the telephone company be
authorized to erect certain poles in George
town and East Washington. Mr.. Allen
said the poles were to be used by the tele-
phone company und by the District in it's
extension of the fire alarm system The
without cost to the District.
1T is within the spirit and intent of
congressional legislation on this subject"
says the attorney, for the Commissioners
to make arrangements with the telephone
company, and If these arrangements neces-
sarily involve the use by the company of
the poles erected or to be erected by the
District, the Commissioners, in my opinion
may allow the company to use such poles
for the purpose of stringing it's wires there
on under the provisions of the alley law
III 1t becomes necessary" adds the at
torney, I'm connection with the extension
OF the fire-alarm telegraph l see no good
reason why the Commissioners may not
make arrangements with the telephone
company for the erection by the company
without cost to the District, of the poles
in the streets and alleys"
