MORE ROSSLYN DEPUTIES
WANTED BY RESIDENTS
Present Force Too Small for
Emergencies.

Two or three more deputy marshals
may be detailed at Rosslyn. Va. to
preserve order.
Since the United States cavaIrymen
from Fort Myer were withdrawn last
week and Clarence II. wibirt and
Steven Beach were appointed deputy
marshals on the recommendation OF
Sheriff Palmer, of Alexandria. there
have been no disturbances, but the
residents of the little hamlet say one
man at night and another in the day is
not sufficient to preserve order should
there be an outbreak at any time.
The authorities OF Virginia. including
Sheriff Palmer and his deputies, do not
believe one man could quell disturb
ance such as have been seen in Rosslyn
before, and the deputy on duty has no
one to call upon for assistance. the
place being a Government reservation,
on which interference or arrests by the
civil authorities is not permitted.

NO MONEY TO REMOVE
WEEDS FROM SIDEWALKS

T. V. Powderly, formerly Inspector OF
immigration, and now practicing law in
Washington, has written the Commits
sioners complaining Of the rank growth
OF weeds along the sidewalk on Newark
Street, from Fifth Street to Brightwood
Avenue northwest. and asks that they
be removed. In considering the mat
ter the Commissioners find II Involves
an Important question as to the rights
OF the District to compel the owners OF
vacant lots to keep. the sidewalks in
front OF such lots clear OF weeds.
On the recommendation OF the Health
Department the Commissioners asked of
Congress an appropriation to enable
them TO enforce the weed law during
the current year, similar TO appropTia-
tions made heretofore for the same pur-
pose. No such appropriation was made
this year, however. making IL impossible
for tho District authorities to compel
the removal OF weeds from private prop
erty. Mr.. Powderly will be so informed
by the Commissioners.

Wrongdoers.
OBTAIN OPINION FROM
CORPORATION COUNSEL
Determined to Adjust IN
Court All Issues L1Uofbed
in Irregular Payment by
Local School Board.

In regard to the alleged wrongful
tion to a local photographer. Commits
sioner Macfarland announced this morn
ing that the Limitation applicable to the
offense was three years. and not two
years. as has been published
On June % the Commissioners received
from the Board OF Education the report
OF the $500 voucher matter. Immediate
ly upon its receipt the Commissioners
met in board session and adopted mo-
tion made by Commissioner Macfariand
referring the report to the Corporation
Counsel. whom they had called in con-
sultation. with the statement that they
desired him to take such steps imme-
diately as were practicable to insure
prosecution, by conference with the
United States Attorney for the District
of Columbia, or otherwise.
The Corporation Counsel. after con-
ferences with United States District At
torney Beach, in which he expressed 10
him the desire of the Commissioners
that the matter should be brought before
the grand jury, reported to the Commits
sioners on July 1 that District Attorney
Beach would lay the matter before the
grand Jury, as they had requested. Mr..
Duvall also reported that Mr.. Beach.
after examining the law. was satisfied
that the United States statutes did not
apply, since the offense committed was
against the District government and not
against the United States Government.
and that. therefore, the limitation Of
prosecution to two years. provided in
the United States statutes. was not ap-
plicable.
Prosecution, District Attorney Beach
said. must be made under the District
code, In which the Limitation for such
action is three years. As the transac-
tion in question occurred but two years
ago. the District Attorney reported that
there was ample time in which to carry
through the prosecution.

CHANGES IN RURAL
FREE DELIVERY RULES
Patrons to Receive More
Consideration.
Mr.. PR0CTER'S OPINION
Civil Service Commissioners Will Not
Alter Educational Require
ments for Carriers.
hR. PROCTER'S OPINION

Members of the Civil Service Commits
sion are considering important changes
which Will be made in the manner of ap-
livery service.
J. d. King. chairman of the central
board OF examiners for the rural carrier
service, had conference yesterday with
the Civil Service Commissioners. and
submitted amendments TO the rules gov
erning the service which he considers
desirable. These are under discussion
today by the board
1T is the purpose of the board 10
give the patrons of routes more to say
concerning the selection of carriers .
Commissioner Proctor said this morn
ing. The changes in educational re-
quirements Will probably not be ma
terial. One plan under consideration is
10 have a blank filled out by every
signer of petitions for the appointment
OF carriers. These blanks will show
who the signer is, what his business Is
and what interest he has in the route
which the candidate he favors is to
serve.
This plan would give more definite
Information concerning the routes than
is now had, and would make it possible
to select carriers who are acceptable to
the persons whose wishes should be re-
spected."
The central board of examiners IS an
auxiliary to the Civil Service Commits
sion, and conducts the rural carrier ex-
aminations. Applicants are examined
in reading and writing. II found to
have the necessary education and phys
ical requirements they are placed on
the eligible list.
Before making the appointment the
commission now considers the report
made by special agents and route ir-
spectors as to the character, appearance
and ability OF the applicants. Although
this system has given fairly good re
suits, IL is believed the Civil Service
Commissioners should have some means
Of learning more of the wishes of the
patrons OF proposed lines.
