with better results than those of last year.

Ordinance to be Prepared.

At the meeting of the City Counci
on The l4th instant resolution was IN
troduced. which was referred to the com
mittee on general laws and the Corpora,
ton Attorney, looking to an amendment
IN the charter of the Alexandria Water
Company, so that corporation can be
compelled to observe the city ordinances
relating to the opening of streets. Mr.
G. L. Boothe, the Corporation At
torney, sent an opinion to Mr.. F. F.
Marbury chairman of the committee on
general laws, which was submitted to
Council last night. Mr.. BOothe gives a
concise epitome of all the laws govern
ing such corporations, and calls atten-
ton to the fact that there is no repeal
ing clause in the water company's
charter. He, however, cited several
cases to show "that the power of City
Council to control and regulate its
streets is continuing power, to be ex-
ercised as often and whenever the City
Council may think proper, subject only
to the limitation that it must act in
good faith, and that the regulation
must be reasonable, and not imposed
arbitrarily or capriciously, the presump-
ton being in favor of the propriety and
validity OF what the city has directed
to be done" The Corporation At
torney called attention to the recent
litigation with the electric railway com
pany concerning the King street i'm
proSement as a case in point. Mr..
Boothe therefore concludes that the
water company can be compelled to
observe the present ordinance, with but
slight amendment, regulating the open
ing of streets and without any amend
ment to its charter The opinion was
recommitted with instructions to the
Corporation Attorney to prepare an
ordinance on the lines suggested by
him.

A Test Case.

John Gibson, agent for the Robert
Portner Brewing Company, at Danville,
was arraigned in the Mayors court yes
terday morning upon charge of selling
beer without license and in local option
district Gibson showed that the beyer'
idge was sold to persons residing out.
side the district, and that the contract
for the sale of the same was made in the
county. The ultimatum of the Mayor,
however, delivered at the trial ola similar
case several days ago, was to the effect
that such a sale would be considered
illegal. Counsel for Mr.. Gibson
agreed that according to the ruling
of the Mayor the case for the Com
monwealth was sustained, but asked that
the warrant be changed, making the
burden of guilt rest upon the company
under whose orders and instructions Mr..
Gibson was acting. An appeal was
noted, counsel taking occasion to state
that the sale was made in the face of the
Mayors ultimatum, for the purpose OF
making a test case of that decision. A
fine of 800 was imposed upon the
Robert Portner Brewing Company, and
Mr.. Gibson, as the company's repre-
sentative, was required to give bond in
the sum of $3.50 for his appearance at
the June term of the Corporation Court,
which is also the criminal term.

DISTRESSING ACCIDENT.

brakeman VIM. Price, or the WASH
ington-southern Railway, Terrloiy
ManoIed at Ouantico-Right Leg
Crusbed-Fast Run Back TO Ihls
City.
Brakeman William Price, of the
Wasbington-Southern Railway, was the
victim of a sad accident at an early hour
this morning at Quantico. He was en-
nIoved on a freight train which passed
through this city before day and upon
reaching Quantico the train stopped and
some shifting was made. While so en-
gagged Mr.. Price attempted to step on
the cowcatcher of the locomotive after it
had started forward and he slipped and
fell on the track. The engine passed
over his right leg between the knee and
hip, crushing it into mass of quivering
flesh. The unfortunate man was picked
up and placed in caboose which was
attached to the locomotive and start
made for this city, where surgical atten-
ton could be procured. The run was
made as fast as possible, Engineer Will
liam Burrow covering the distance (zf
miles) in 80 minutes. The injured man
was taken to the Alexandria Hospital
where DIR. Smith, assisted by DR.. Purvis,
amputated the limb The mangled man
had lost large quantity of blood in the
meantime, the stretcher upon which ne
had been borne having pools of gore on
it. While recovery is possible, the
chances are against the injured man.
Mr.. Price is a native of North Garden.
He is a young man, unmarried and re-
sides with relatives in this city where ne
has friends and acquaintance who will
regret to hear of the misfortune which
has overtaken him. The details of
the above accident may prove warning
to other railroad men who are wont to
practice the same thoughtless act which
has resulted so sadly to Mr.. Price. 1t
is very common occurrence for switch
men to step on the pilots of locomotives
while they are moving ahead. 1t is
dangerous procedure and occasionally
there is a sad warning in the nature of
serious or fatal accident.
