SPECIAL TAX SCRIP.
House Bill for It's Redemption to Be Fa-
vorably Reported.

Mr.. J. It Petty, the District Auditor,
has submitted a statement to the District
Commissioners relative to House bill
1856. For the relief of holders and own
ers of certain District of Columbia special
tax scrip which has been referred by
the House District Committee to the Com
missioners.
Mr.. Petty says the proposed legislation
provides for the redemption of certain
special tax scrip which was issued to
pay contractors for work done in laying
paveJlents under the late corporation of
Washington and its successors, the Board
of Public Works. 1t was made lien
against the property abutting the line
of Improvement, and bore interest al, the
rate of 10 per cent per annum.
As the tax cannot now be collected
Mr.. Petty says, and the city has en-
joyed the use of the pavement, | am of
opinion that the scrip should be redeemed
and that interest at 8 per cent is rea-
sonable allowance, and should be grant
ed. / have the honor to recommend that
the bill he favorably reported"
Commissioner Ross has approved the
recommendation. The amount involved is
not large.

WATER RENT NOT TOO HIGH.
Answer by Commissioners TO Complaint
of ]. H. VOlker.

Mr.. ]. Fl. Volker, of 1922 X Street
northeast. recently wrote to the District
Commissioners relative to alleged exces-
sive water rent on his house, and re-
quested the bill rendered for the same
to be corrected.
Capt Chester Harding in reporting
upon the matter. states that the amount
assessed for the water rent is in con-
formity with the established rates. and
that no change in the bill can be made
Captain Harding states that the house is
two-story structure with basement the
latter being used for domestic purposes.
1t is therefore considered by the depart
ment as story in computing the water
rent.
The present method of computing
water rent by stories and frontage. Cap
tain Harding says. has been in vogue for
many years, and he believes it to be as
equitable as can be established in the alb
sence of general introduction of water
meters

the Civil War, Adjudged an INDECENT
Insane Person-Wife Appeals to Court
for BIS Release.

Col. Hiram H. Carpenter. a veteran of
the civil war. was yesterday adjudged TO
he an INDECENT insane person, and COM
mitted TO St. Elizabeth's Hospital for the
Insane. He was arrested on March 10 in
the office of Sanitary officer Frank, and

sitting for probate business
The hearing lastedseveral hours. Colonel
Carpenter was represented by Attorney c.
Albert White.
Several physicians gave testimony in
reference to the sanity of the subject.
Among them were Drs. George c. Ober
William D. Hughes and John Mclean
all of whom concurred in the opinion that
Colonel Carpenter was of unsound mind
and not a proper person to be at liberty
They stated that Colonel Carpenter is a
victim of delusional insanity. 1t appeared
from the testimony that Colonel Carpen-
ter is the owner of a patent for a storage
battery of his own invention.
Testimony of Physicians.
The witnesses stated that he was labor
ing under the delusion that gang of
session of his patent Colonel Carpen-
ter testified in his own defence and said
that there was a gang of men planning
to get hold of his patent and his ideas.
but he was unable to name any of the
supposed conspirators
He further stated he was very much an
noyed by this gang of men. and on. several
occasions he was approached by individ-
uals in menacing manner, and for this
reason armed himself with a revolver.
This weapon was taken away from him
by Sanitary Officer Frank on the day he
was arrested.
The Assistant Solicitor, who conducted
the proceedings on behalf of the Com
missioners, offered in evidence a letter
which Colonel Carpenter wrote to the
Rev J. H. Bradford. in which he stated
that he was annoyed by a gang of men
following him. He also said that be had
written to the President to assist him in
the matter of Kidding himself of his pur-
suers.
Wife Appeals for His Release.
In disposing of the matter Justice Bar
nard stated that the testimony showed
conclusively to him that Colonel Car
- lhdl
his own good as well as for the safety
of the public he should be committed to
the asylum.
Mrs. Carpenter attended the proceed
ings, and after Justice Barnard decided
to commit her husband to the asylum
she made an appeal to the court for his
release.
Wilkinson F. Cropp Released.
Mr.. Wilkinson F. Cropp, who was sup
posed to be of unsound mind, was re-
leased from custody. the physicians who
were appointed by the court to make an
investigation as to his sanity reporting
that he had only suffered from an at
tack of alcoholism.
Mr.. Cropp was arrested some time ago
on charge of vagrancy and when ar
raigned in the Police Court, jumped from
a chair TO the floor. striking on his head.
