DEFICIENCY ITEM.
Chief Of Police Wants Three Thousand
Dollars Additional,

Maj. Sylvester, chief of police. has stated
to the District Commissioners that de-
ficiency estimate OF 5000 for the police de-
partment should be sent to Congress, as
that additional amount will be needed for
the conduct of the department the re-
mainder of the current fiscal year. In ex-
planning the need OF the deficiency appro-
priation, Maj. Sylvester says:
1.-The appropriation for the contingent
fund was 81 600 less than that recommend
ed In the estimates. and as rewards for
fugitives and expenses incurred in the de-
lection and prevention OF crime are paid
from this fund. the unusual demands in
that direction could not be foreseen. As is
well known. there were several murders
during the fore part of the year, and other
crimes which involved a considerable ex-
pense, although the department Is to be
congratulated upon having cleared up all
such mysteries except the assault In the
case of Mrs. Dennis, which has been pur-
sued with unrelenting hand at some con-
siderable expense, and Is now being fol-
lowed"
He also calls attention to unusual ex-
penses incurred in purchasing new re-
volyers. equipping the tenth precinct sta
tion, fitting tops to the patrol wagons and
printing q new edition OF the police regula-
tions.

Removal of Snow and Ice.

The District Commissioners have for
warded to Chairman Babcock OF the House
District committee the draft OF bill to
provide for the removal of snow and ice
from the sidewalks of the District OF CO.
lumbia, and have earnestly requested ia
vorable action upon the measure. The bill
is the same as was introduced in the House
by Mr.. Babcock February q, 1900. 1t is in
tended as a substitute for the present law
on the subject of removing snow and ice
and is intended to correct some of the pro-
visions and also the wording OF that meas
ure
One of the principal points Of the new law
Is that IT relieves from the punishment
clause the agents of owners OF property.
In the old law 1t was provided that the
agents should be responsible and be fined
The Court of Appeals held that the agents
could not be punished, and SO the new law
Will omit them from the penalty clause
The new law also fixes six feet as the mini
mum width Of sidewalk to be cleaned.
