steps are being taken to put the
American University in active opera
ton. This has been prevented before
because of a stipulation by the directors
that S5,OOO,OOO must be raised before
the college could receive students and
start regularly to work. To raise this
sum Immediately has been found almost
an impossibility.
Those persons who would have made
much-appreciated donations Of several
thousands dollars We're scared of by
tho size of the total amount asked for.
and as no muIti-millionaire, like John
D. Rockefeller. came forward to make
up the difference, the result has been
that the university has practically re-
ceived no donations for a very long
time. Their original endowment
amounted to 100000 altogether in
assets. including the magnificent
stretch of land owned on Georgetown
Heights. but as no more money has
been coming in the directors naturally
became anxious and they want the
charter so changed that the trustees
may decide for themselves how much

vel sity can be opened

THE system of assessing property in
the District fs not antiQuated, said
Hopewen II. Darneille, the District As
SCISSOR. in commenting yesterday on the
criticisms that have been made relative
TO the fact that the property in the
vicinity OF the proposed plaza In front
Of the new Union Station is on the
assessment lists as being worth much
less than the owners now ask for it.
Neither the Commissioners nor the
Engineer Department can hold us re-
sponsibIe for the simple action OF the
law of supply and demand" he con
tinued. The property owners near the
site OF the station know now that there
Is a demand for their lands and houses,
and as a consequence OF this knowledge
they have put a greater value on their
holdings
At this point the Assessor explained
his belief that the system Of triennial
assessments of property in the District
is the best Washington ever had. He
claimed that the old plan OF assess
ments every year produced nothing but
dissatisfaction.

LESS TRAINS; MORE FARE
Seven-Mile Radius Outside District
Limits Brings Ten Cents to
Golfers of Company.

Citizens Of Rockville have appointed
a committee TO make an Investigation
and see whether 1t is possible to have
car fares to and from Washington re
duced to what they were before the
electric railroad company increased
them.
Henry c. Burenger, a local business
man. has been appointed chairman Of
the committee. He expects to have a
talk with General Harries and the other
officers of the railroad company early
this week.
The citizens assers that the number of
cars operated daily have been reduced,
and that fares have been doubled in a
fashion similar to the long and short
haul tariffs of the big trunk lines Of the
country. Under the trunk line rules it
frequently costs much less to travel and
ship freight a thousand miles than it
does five hundred. The same is now
true, the citizens say, in a liliputian
way, between Rockville and Washing
ton.
Cars Reduced One-Fourth.
Cars between the two points" said
the chairman Of the citizens committee
yesterday, have been reduced one
quarter. We now have TO wait at times
half an hour for a car. The natural re-
suit is crowding, and frequently We have
TO stand nearly all Of the way from
Washington to Rockville.
THE company has also adopted a fare
tariff that Is decidedly peculiar. II
would seem that the company has
drawn a circle about seven miles in
diameter around Rockville. The fare is
10 cents, while to the District line and
into Washington the fare is the same
Why this should be, we are going TO find
out"
The officers OF the railroad company
are reticent IN discussing the trouble.
with the patrons Of the line. They de.
clare that any reduction made in the
number of cars operated was necessary
