Attorney DuvaN has returned 10 the
Commissioners the communication OF B.
F Meyers relative to a permit for the
erection Cf an apartment house, 1920 Ninth
Street northwest, with the following re
port:
The question involved is whether the
reservation, by the owner Of the lot, of a
part thereof for private alley deprives the
owner Of the adjoining Iot OF the right 10
erect a party wall and thereby eucToach
upon contiguous space reserved for the
private alley This question Was fully dis
cussed IN an opinion by the Attorney Of
the District, August l. 1885. in which ne
advised that the right 10 build a party
wall could not thus be defeated by the
owner Of the adjoining lot. I concur in
that opinion"

Andrew D. Ruvau, the Attorney for the
District, today submitted to the Commits
siCueTs his opinion upon House resolution
II. .g2S, to amend the act approved June
T. 1878. entitled an act regulating ex-
emptions in the District Of Columbia" The
Attorney says the object Of the bill is TO
reduce to $50 the exemption of the earn
ing Of those who are married persons or
who have TO provide for the support of
family. In his report to the Commission
ers, Mr. DUvaH says
BY act Of Congress approved June 1q
1873, such earnings not 10 exceed 500 each
month fer two months next preceding the
issue Of any writ from any court were ex-
cupted from attachment, levy. and sale.
/ am not aware Of any public sentiment
calling for any change in this Exemption

proposed legislation. In my judgment it
IS rot desirable. and wcuId advise an ad-
verse report thereon
William Il. Pyles. ot I2CI Street south
east recently wrote to the Commissioners
asking to be iGfoT-aed in regard 10 a
change in 4 FIVE foot alley In square 1927.
L appears that he wished TO know Wheth-
er a private citizen could sell him a pri-
vate alley
In reporting upon the matter c. B. Hunt,
the Computing Engineer, says that the
proposition presented would appear to be
a matter in which the District could not
express an opinion that would IN any way
be authoritative and Mr.. Hunt is of the
opinion that the sale OF such an alley was
a matter lying entirely among priva te
parties and would be controlled by the
ability Of the person selling TO pass title
10 the person buying. Mr.. Hunt recon-
mended that Mr.. Pyles be so informed, and
the Commissioners have approved the rec
Omncndation.
