TAXES CANCELLED.
Action Of the Commissioners Affecting
Church Property.

Church Property.
After consideration Of the matter, ex-
tending over a period of eight months the
Commissioners have finally decided to cam
eel certain taxes against the property OF
the Miles Memorial Tabernacle. located on
the west side of Sd street northwest be-
tween L and M streets. Application for a
cancellation OF the assessment was first
made January 6 by the attorney for the
congregation. It appeared that taxes had
been levied on one portion Of the lot on
which stood an old cobbler's shop. The
assessors Office at the time ruled that az
this shop was not part OF the church
building. the taxes could not be Cancelled.
1t has developed from afiidavits brought
forward since that time that the old shop
was used for the storage OF church chairs,
hymn books fuel. etc.. and was necessary
to the maintenance of the church. In view
Of this statement. Acting Assessor Griffin
that the taxes be Cancelled.
and the Commissioners today approved the
action.

UNEXPENDED BALANCES
MR.. GARRISON'S SUGGESTION RE-
GARDING BRIDGE FUNDS.

Auditor John r. Garrison has called to
the attention Of the Commissioners the
fact that unless steps are taken to secure
transfer Of the funds, the sum of $780,
1914, being the unexpended balance Of ap-
preparations for the Massachusetts, and
Connecticut avenue bridges over Rock
creek. 1902 and 1903, will be lost to the Dis
trict and credited to the treasury surplus
funds. Transfer should also be asked Of
the current appropriations of $4S, COO for the
Connecticut avenue bridge.
In the digest of appropriations the Treas
ury Department credited these appropria-
lions for bridges to the head Of Improve
ments and repairs for the various years
Indicated. Auditor Garrison says that in
order to have the benefit Of the money,
which is badly needed for the purpose OF
carrying on the bridge work. the treasury
authorities should be requested to transfer
the funds from the improvement and re-
pair account to separate bridge accounts
without fiscal year. In the case of the
Connecticut avenue bridge the unexpended
balance for 1902 is s81. 42274, and the Mas
sachusetts avenue bridge, $27, 76867
Referring to the Connecticut avenue
structure Auditor Garrison says appropria-
tons for the bridge, as made in the Dis
triet appropriation acts for. the fiscal years
1902 and 1904, are included in the annual
appropriations for improvements and re-
pairs. and digested as subheads Of those
appropriations. -sst
las these appropriations now stand" he
continues, they are subject to the limita-
lions prescribed by law as to the use OF
annual appropriations I am advised that
the unekpended balance OF the appropria-
ton for 1902 IS needed in prosecuting the
work Of the construction of this bridge in
accordance with the purposes Of the appro-
priating act and that expenditure will be
necessary outside OF the contracts which
have already been made From the char
acter of the work and the language of the
appropriat1ng clauses 1t would seem that
these appropriations should be treated as
specific and without fiscal year, so that
they may be available for the construction
OF the>Sridge-
Request for Transfer.
II therefore respectfully recommend that
the Secretary OF the Treasury be requested
to transfer the sum of $4,000 appropriated
In the District appropriation act for 1902
toward the construction of bridge across
Rock creek on the line Of Connecticut ave-
nue. extended, from the appropriation I'M
provements and repairs, u. c., 1902 to
separate appropriation without fiscal year
for Connecticut avenue bridge across Rock
creek, and also to transfer to said fund the
sum of $4S.0VO appropriated in the act of
1904"
Mr.. Garrison states that the amount al
ready expended from the $4,000 Is but 3d.
577.2d leaving a balance OF $61, 42274. From
the current appropriation OF $4,000 only
$124.04 has been expended, leaving balance
of $47. S7506
In the case of the Massachusetts avenue
bridge Auditor Garrison recommends tho
same procedure.
