CANNOT WITHDRAW
APPLICATION FEES.
PLUMBING INSPECTORS RULING
May Withdraw Plea for License.
But Deposits Made by PIumb-
ers VIII Not BE Re
turned.

The District Commissioners have re-
ceiyed from the Inspector of Plumbing
MIR. c. c. Ball, a report upon the gen
eral practice in his office of refusing re-
quests Of master plumbers to Withdraw
their deposits from the Collector Of Taxes
made at the time OF their applications for
license.
The report was rendered on the apPli-
cation Of A. K. Shepherd to withdraw such
deposit and Mr.. Ball takes the ground
that tie deposit should not be withdrawn,
unless the applicant desires TO stand ex-
animation again as a new candidate for
the license Of master plumber.
Law Back of Decision.
In his report Mr. Ball cites the law
relative to the matter contained in section
30. of the plumbing regulations which
provides in general that each plumber be
expected to deposit with his application
for license the sum OF S25. and. further,
that Il he fail to do this, no permit will be
issued for him to perform work until he
has made good that amount The placing
of this sum with the Collector OF Taxes
is required as a guarantee Of good work.
etc.
Mr.. Ball states that his Office Is con
stantly besieged with applications Tor the
withdrawal or dspOsitE2 but holds filat.ii
plumbers b. permitted so to do. and to re-
new applications for license without re-
examination. much confusion would re-
suit.
Dcprcrntcs the Policy.
He recommends that Mr. Shepherd be
informed it is not considered good policy
to allow the withdrawal or the deposit
unless he wishes 10 have his request con-
struec as a formal cancellation OF his
license as master plumber. This. Ar. Ball
would involve, upon application
for a renewal OF the same, rc-eNamina-
tion by the plumbing board, and treat
ment In all respects as an Unlicensed
plumber. and he is oi the opinion that this
procedure IS the only practicable means
OF protc ction for the PUBLIC in enlorcing
the plumbing regulations oi the District.

4 great stock Of all sorts OF desirable ar

CANNOT COLLECT
PERSONAL TAX.
DECISION BY JUDGE CLABAUGH.
Law Upheld, But Proper Official to
Collect the Tax Il Lacking
Question Raised in
Peters Case.

In the existing circumstances the Com
missioners cannot collect tax on personal
property in the District. was the decision
Of Justice Clabaueh yesterday afternoon
ia the case of the committee of Eugene
Peters against the Commissioners.
The law under which tax against per
sonal property can be levied the court held
to be constitutional. the difficulty being
that there is no authorized officer in the
District to collect the TAX when levied.
Peters Estate Case.
The question of the right and authority
OF the Commissioners to levy and collect a
personal TAX against the estate Of f2sgene
Peters. who is aSjudged TO be luuatic,
was raised by his committee, John II.
l4cald. George L. Hamilton, and W. y.
Baker, who filed e petition in The Supreme
Court OF the District asking that Srit
OF certiorari be issued against the Com
missioneTs. requiring them 10 illc certi-
fed copy OF all the papers and -ecord5 re-
( lating 20 the levy Of a personal tax
/ agairs, his estate with the clerk Of the
| Supreme Court Of the District.
In the Petition the committee contended
that If the levy is constitutional, under
the organic act OF Congress. passed in
1877 the Commissioners are not able TO
collect the tax. because they, by the
power vested in them, abolished the office
and have no officer authorized by law
10 collect the tax.
Valued Ht s35o.ooo.
Mr. Peters personal estate is estimated
at $3.50 600
Argument on the question was begun
before Justice Clabaugh on Thursday and
was concluded yesterday afternoon about
3:50 o'clock.
The committee for MIR. Peters estate
was represented by D. W. Baker of the
firm OF LambeFt Bakeran y s. Worth
ingtop. OF Worthirgton, Head & Frailey.
District Attorney 4. n. Duvall and Assist
