MUST APPEAL TO COURT.
Report Adverse to Claim for Damages
Filed With Commissioner.


A claim for 500 damages was presented
to the Commissioners recently by Attorney
Walter P. Plumley on behalf Of Mr. Hugh
Smith. AS stated by the attorney the basis
Of the claim was as follows:
1.-THE infant child of my client had his
foot and ankle seriously injured by being
caught in a defective water trap situated
in the pavement on 18th street opposite the
Raleigh Hotter. One of the bones i'm the
ankle and foot Of the little child who is
only one year old, was dislocated or
wrenched out OF place; the child suffered
great pain and has been and still is a great
care and charge to it's parents. My client
claims. in consequence of said injuries he
has suffered considerable loss and damage
but as compromise of this matter he is
willing to accept the sum of $500
Chief Clerk l.. P. Bradshaw of the sur
face division, engineering department has
made the following report on Mr. Smiths
claim:
Investigation of the circumstances of
this accident discovers that this child an
infant OF sixteen months. while visiting its
grandparents at the adjoining number, had
habitually been permitted to play unattend-
ed upon the sidewalk and about this un-
covered stopcock; that the box had been
without a cover for months, and its con-
dition subject of comment while it was
in plain view from the steps where the
mother and older persons interested in the
child used to sit and watch it at play Un-
der the circumstances 1t is doubtful If re-
covery Tor injury resulting to a child OF
this tender age can be had, and since no
permanent injury appears to have resulted
and the damages wanted are for a substan-
tial amount, 1t Is recommended that the
claim be established at law"
In this recommendation Commissioner
Biddle concurs.

GREAT ! FALLS POWER
CONTROL OF THE COMPANY
PASSES INTO NEW HANDS.
Those Friendly to, the Washington
Railway Company Are Said
to Be the Owners.

1t is understood that negotiations have
been about concluded which will result in
the transfer Of the control Of the Great
Falls Power Company to interests friendly
to the Washington Railway Company The
property of the company also includes the
control Of the power of Occoquan Falls, as
1t was the purpose to establish an electric
power plant at that place also, as well as
to control the only other water power Of
any consequence in the vicinity of the city
besides that at Great Falls. The latter
property was purchased several years ago
from the estate Of the late Benjamin F.
Butler, which practically owned the entire
stock of the Great Falls Company.
Mr.. Oscar T. Crosby and Charles A. Lieb
were the principals in this enterprise and
since the property has come into their con-
troll the legal complications arising from
the claims of the United States govern
ment, the Chesapeake and Ohio canal and
the states of Maryland and Virginia have
been cleared away. 1t is now possible to
carry out the plan Of utilizing the power
of the river at this point by the building
Of a dam and the erection of the necessary
machinery. 1t is recognized that owing to
the dimunition in the quantity Of water In
the river during the summer season the
power available in that period is not up to
the average Of the other eight or nine
months of the year.
1t is proposed, however, in order to main
tain this average that the material force
be supplemented by a steam power plant
which would only be in use during the sea-
son of low water 1t is understood that
the new owners intend to carry out the
plans already prepared for the utilization
Of this water power, but it is not believed
to be the purpose to begin carrying them
out at the present time. The undertaking
is one that involves a large outlay Of
money, and the development of this nron
erty will probably be made part of a plan
which is designed to supply the city with
power for heating. lighting and the nu-
merous uses which arise in a large center
of population.

PAYMENTS WITHHELD.
Due to Contractors On Local Sewer Con.
struction.

The controller Of the treasury, replying to
an inquiry from the treasurer Of the United
States, has held that the latter would be
justified in withholding payment of the
amounts deposited with him from certain
District of Columbia sewer contracts with
R. NJ. Moore g. Co., amounting to about
5000. Under, thef1aw the government re-
tains for period Of five years 10 per cent
of the amount payable on contracts of this
character to cover any possible loss that
may be sustained by reason of defective
work. tcI -
In the cases under consideration this five
year term has expired The controller says,
however, that the, payments in question
have been the subject of contesting claims
both in the department and the courts, and
that it is understood that the courts of the
District of Columbia have again been asked,
or will soon be asked: to settle the contro-
terests of aRrparties concerned, and that
until this has beenrdone he is of the opinion
that the treasurefiis fully justified, in the
interest OF the United States, In refusing to

KING EDWARDS NEW CUTTER.
To Be Built in Time for the Racing
Season Of 1908.

LONDON, August 8.-''Today" says King
Edward will have new racing cutter built
on the Clyde in time for the racing sea-
son of 1903, and that the new yacht prob
ably will be named Britannia, but will be
larger than the famous old boat Of that
name.
LONDON, August GA dispatch to the
Associated Press from Glasgow confirms
the report that the king Is to have a new
yacht, and says that Watson is now de-
signing big racing cutter for the king The
first use contemplated for the boat Is a Sc
ries of trial races with Sir Thomas Lipton's
new challenger for the Americas 8 cup This
report suggests an explanation Of the un-
expectedly amicable manner In which Wat
son and Fife have worked together in de-
signing the new challenger.
The kings interest in the Americas 8 Gun
racing has been proved by his purchase Of
and fitting out of the Britannia for the
trials Of the Shamrock l. The building of
a new yacht for his majesty was not unex-
pected. as at the beginning Of Queen VIC
toria's fatal illness he Cancelled an order
for similar boat. These trials will give
an Immense flip to the interest in racing
on this side, but curious difficulty will be
raised should the royal cutter prove better
than the challenger produced by Fife for
Sir Thomas Upton.
