DISTRICT DECLINES
TO PAY ONE BILL TWICE

The Commissioners and John B. Daish,
of s. s. Daish & Sons, are at odds over
the responsibility for damages sustain
ed by one of Daish's horses. which fell
through a catch basin at the intersec-
ton of New York Avenue and Four
teenth Street, September 16 Mr.. Daish
claims the cover or grating was defec-
tive. and requested the Commissioners
TO order a District veterinarian to at
tend the injured animal Captain Hard
ing. to whom the matter was referred.
reports as follows:
Il see no reason why the District vet
erinarian should attend this horse. The
applicant states it is his intention 10
hold the District responsible for in
juries TO the animal by reason OF defec-
tive trap. and If he establishes his case,
the expenses OF the horses treatment
will become a part of the damages TO
be paid by the District. It appears from
the first Endorsement hereon. it is not
admitted that the trap was defective"

PAID FOR AN ALLEY
THAT WAS NEVER CUT
Nevertheless the Money Is Retained in
District Treasury.

A peculiar condition OF affairs has
come to light through complaint made
recently TO the Commissioners by Mrs.
M. c. Slossom. of 141S Fifteenth Street
northwest, who stated that over year
ago she paid to the District $125 assess
ment for an alley which the District in
tended to cut through block SO, Column
bia Heights. The work has never been
done. but the $125 has been retained.
The matter was referred to Auditor Gar
rison. who says:
This office after repeated efforts has
been unable to secure the release of GER
tain deeds of trust and other incum-
brances on some of the land condemned
for an alley in this block Final no
tiee will be given to the owners OF the
property affected by these trusts and in
cumbrances. and should they fail to
clear the land of all liens so that the
awards can be paid. an effort will be
made to cover the unpaid balances into
the registry of the court, in order that
the District may obtain possession OF
this alley"

DISTRICT LIABILITY
FOR DAMAGE BY FIRE
DR.. Collins Case Again Referred to
Police Department.

The request recently made by DR.. A.
r. Collins that the District reimburse
him for damages sustained by reason of
fire in the rear of the Fourth precinct
police station. has again been referred
to the Police Department for further re-
port. This case involves an important
point as to the liability of the District
in similar cases. and the Commissioners
intend to go slowly and accurately.
DR.. Collins, it appears, suffered to
the extent of about S45. according to his
computation. which. after an investiga-
tion by Lieutenant Matthews. was re-
duced TO SO. Major Sylvester explained
the fire was caused by the explosion of
coal oil. and was not the fault of the
police The Engineer Department re-
ported the repair funds of the District
could not be used for the purpose re-
quested. and Auditor Garrison was ap-
pealed 10 for legitimate method of
making the payment.
The Auditor reports the responsibility
of the District is conceded, inferential-
ly. in the several Endorsements, but he
carefully guards his own suggestion. III
the responsibility of the District govern
ment be established. or admitted. in my
opinion the amount named may be prop
erly paid from the appropriation for
contingent and miscellaneous ex-
penses.
Commissioner West, however, is not
satisfied that the responsibility of the
District has been conceded. even "in-
ferentially" as the Auditor suggests. and
has asked the Police Department to sub
nit the facts in full so that the rela-
tive responsibility may be determined.

SHORT MEASURE CANS
USED BY OIL COMPANY
Subject Referred TO CORPORATION
Counsel for His Advice.

Leo s. Schoenthal Acting Sealer of
Weights and Measures for the District
of Columbia, addressed the following
self-explanatory report to the Commits
sioners this morning:
Il have the honor to report to you that
on the 18th instant complaint was re-
ceived at this office that the Home
Safety Oil Company. doing a retail coal
oil and gasolene business in this District
by means Of delivering it's wares to con-
sumers in one gallon cans, was selling
short measure of said coal oil and gaso-
lene. The complainant further stated that
stones were placed in the bottom of the
patent filling machines from which the
cans are filled prior TO being sent upon
the streets for delivery. During the past
two years many similar complaints have
been received and investigated and the
question of stones being in these filters
was looked after by this office. We
found that the filters were made to hold
more than a legal gallon, and to Offset
the excess, the managers placed stones
in them. Upon the advice and request of
this office the stones were removed and
the filters reconstructed so that they
now hold standard gallon without the
use of stones or any other obstruction
being placed in them.
I'VE again took the subject up on the
above mentioned complaint and made an
investigation and found that certain oil
and gasolene taken up on the streets
from the wagons OF the company failed
TO fill a standard gallon measure. We
also went to the warehouse of the com
pany and direct to the filling machines
which were in operation. We found no
stones in the measures to curtail their
capacity, but did find that the shortage
was due to the fact that an insufficient
amount of oil was being put in, not fill
ing them up to the standard measure.
II am of the opinion that some legal
steps should be taken to compel this
company TO put a standard gallon of
either coal oil or gasolene in the cans
and respectfully recommend that the
matter be referred to the Corporation
Counsel for his advice as to the proper
steps to be taken in the matter
Commissioner Macfarland approved
the suggestion that the matter be re-
ferred to the Corporation Counsel

DIAMONDS RETURNED
To DOYLE AND M'NEIR
Weight Found hot to Correspond With
jewelers. Claims.

Justice of the Peace O'Neal yesterday
handed down a decision In favor OF
Thomas B. Doyle and John McNeir, the
two young men who were arrested Sat
urday night by Detective Warren on
suspicion OF having stolen several
costly diamonds from a jewelry firm
IN Philadelphia on September 16.
In the Police Court several days ago,
Attorney Sillers had the case noile
pressed. but the diamonds which were
taken from the men We're not returned
because the jewellers from Philadelphia
protested that the diamond shirt stud
which the men had. was stolen in Phil
adelphia. For that reason. Chief Clerk
Kemp OF the Police Department. did not
return the gem. and a suit was insti-
tuted before Justice O'Neal by the jew
elers
Wednesday they swore the stone
weighed more than a carat, and Doyle
and McNeir swore IL belonged TO them
and weighed less than a carat. Justice
O'Neal postponed the case until yester-
day. In order that the gem might be
weighed. and when that was done
H. was found that IL weighed less
than a carat and was handed over TO
Doyle, who says his wife gave it to him
three years ago as a present.

Where Huntsmen
Bag Their Game.

Hermann Mertz yesterday shot eight
reedbirds and three ortolan on the
Benning marshes. Expert huntsmen
say birds are scarcer this season than
for ten years past.
In the market fat reedbirds retail
at 81 a dozen, while thin ones bring
the lucrative price of IS cents. Most OF
the "reedies'' and ortolan on the stands
came from the Carolinas. Reports in
dictate there will be plenty of rabbits
ducks and quail when the season opens
