Text of the Emergency
Bill the Cause.
NO CARTING AWAY OF SNOW And ICE
Appropriation Confined to
Cutters and Crossings.
SOME BILLS ARE HELD UP
Mr. PcttE Takes This Action After
Comforting With Members of the
House Committee.

The District Government finds itself Sc
rtousIy handicapped by the text Of the
bill making an emergency appropriation
OF 5000 to aid in the clearing away Of
the ice and snow from the streets OF the
city The bill confines the use OF the
funds TO the cleaning Of the cross-waIks
and cutters. and not dollar OF it can be
expended in removing Snow and ice from
any other part Of the streets
Old Fund soon Exhausted.
When the snow began to fail last week
and it was found that the streets were
practically blocked. the Street Cleaning
Department had something over $500 at
its disposal left over from the regular
appropriation of 81 geo made by Congress
for the purpose. This amount was con-
sumed in one day. and the Commissioners.
at the instance Of the superintendent OF
Street Cleaning. sent joint resolution to
Congress providing for the removal of
snow from the streets, the resolution be-
ing exactly like others passed by Congress
in times OF emergency in former years.
The resolution asked for $4,000.
Instead OF enacting this resolution the
House Committee on Appropriations
drafted a bill naming the sum OF 5000,
and so framed It that the Commissioners
are left without authority TO remove the
snow from the streets II il accumulates TO

Lad still Defiant.
The young man. who is only seventeen
years old. stated TO Times reporter be-
fore leaving the city that the action Of
his father was unwarranted, and that he
would find some means to thwart him.
So far from neglectiLS his studies, he
rztd, he had done two years work in
enc at the Catholic University. where he
Had won several medals and had stood at
the head OF his class ever since he enter
ed he institution.
Ire professors at the university give
the young man the highest recommends
tion and state that he was one OF the
brightest young men that ever attended
that institution.
Father Sure He's Right.
The father Of the boy WIS equally conf
dent that he was pursuing the right course
in the matter, and stated that he had
no objection to the young lady, and would
offer no objection to the marriage at the
proper time. but that he thought both
were too young at the present time to
consider such a mater.
Detective Sergeant Weldon only went to
New York, and is expected back in the
city this evening or tonight.

Of snow to cause the same 10 he removed
from the cross walks TO a width Of ten
feet and from cut Of the cutters 20 the
width Of one foot In case the crossings
are frozen il is the duty OF the Commits
sioners to see that the ice is sprinkIed
with ashes or sawdusl or similar material
to ensure safety to pedestrians.
Last Friday the Superintendent Of
Street Cleaning. supposing that the law
passed by Congress was similar to others
enacted under similar circumstances by
that body, employed about fifty carts and
wagons and worked two days carting
away the snow taken from the cross
walks and from in front OF public build
ings.
Held ID by the Auditor.
Yesterday when it became necessary to
pass upon the bills for the payment OF the
drivers Of the wagons and carts the Au-
ditor for the District discovered the pc
culiar wording OF the law and saw that
no provision was made for the employ
ment Of men OF wagons for the removal Of
the snow from the streets The Auditor
had a conference with the members Of the
House Committee on Appropriations and
learned from them that it was not the
purpose OF The committee to authorize
the carting away OF any snow whatever.
Under a ruling Of the Comptroller OF
the Treasury upon the act Of 1897 the Dis
trict is authorized in paying the drivers
employed in oarting away the snow from
the crossings, ana such OF them as were
so engaged were ordered paid yesterday.
The Auditor ruled. however. that under
the peculiar wording OF the law the Street
Cleaning Department is not authorized to
remove any more snow from the streets,
except at the crossings when it obstrucJs
traffic. Hotels and business places are
barred. as well as the business streets.
and the snow now awaits the work OF Old
Sol or Jupiter Pluvius for removal.
