ELEVENTH STREET CAR LINE.
views OF Petworth Association Regard
ing Its Extension.

Inc commissioners today received a com
munlcatfon from President r. " pouaorI,
ana secretary d. J. Particle of the PET
worth citizens Association, in which the
views of the members of the associa tion
with reference to the proposed extension of
the nth street car line are fully set forth
Ihe writers state that their main desira has
been. and Is, to secure a strictly urban car
service from the interior of the civ to
Richmond street. No other service tbey
state, Will be acceptable to the citizens Of
Petworth or those living south of Bright
wood avenue. Continuing. the writer's saw.
1T is essential not only to the convent
enee, but to the health and welfare of the
citizens of Petworth, and those living south
or them to the city boundary that A CON
tinuous car service should be established
at least as far as Richmond street We
prefer the extension of the nth street line
along Lydecker street and New Hamnshire
avenue, thence to Richmond street. but will
be satisfied with continuous urban servjce
by means of the 9th street line ont bright
wood avenue If the former cannot be
granted.
I'VE see no reason why the proposed ex-
tension should not be made. In our iude-
ment, additional cars on the Brightwood
line will in no wise meet the requirements.
and we are greatly opposed to any such
compromise being made with the railroad
companies.
In closing the writers urge the Commits
sioners to recommend to Congress such
legislation as will remedy the conditions
and not obtige the citizens to trust to the
promises of the railroad companies, which,
they say, may never be fulfilled.

MAY BE ADOPTED.
Fire : Resisting Materials Said to Be
Satisfactory

The results of recent experiments con-
Quoted in Washington In treating scenery
and wood work on stages with fire resist
ing chemicals. 1t is stated, have been of
such nature that Commissioner Macfariand
will probably recommend to the Commits
sioners that the proprietors of the local
theaters and halls be required to treat their
scenery and stage fixtures with some prep
aration which may be satisfactory to the
authorities. The experiments with two GER
tain chemical preparations, II is stated,
seem to show that ii will be practicable to
treat scenery, ETC., with fire-resisting chem
icals. The present regulations relating TO
this matter provide that such treatment of
scenery shall be required "if practicable"
The Commissioners will not prescribe any
specific preparation for the treatment of
scenery, but they will inform the proprie-
tors of the theaters and halls that there
are preparations which seem practicable
ana require them to adopt some satisfac-
tory method OF treating the stage property.
scenery brought to this city and used in the
local theaters will also have to be treated
with hre-reSisting preparation in a MAN.
ner similar TO the permanent scenery of
the theaters.
The experiments with fire-resisting chemi-
Gals have been in progress i'm Washington
about TWO months, and as result the gov
eminent chemists have reported fayorabIy
on two preparations. 1t is desired TO test a
third preparation before any action is taken
In the matter by the Commissioners but il
Is believed that decision will be reached
within short time

ADVERSE REPORT.
Commissioners Disapprove Deposit Of
Taxes in Local Banks.

The District Commissioners today for
warded to Congress an adverse report on
the bill to provide for depositing the taxes
collected in the District with the local ma
tional banks. which are United States de-
positories. The Commiss oners' action with
reference to this proposed legislation was
anticipated last week, and the matter has
been the subject of considerable discussion
within the past few days, especially in To-
cal financial circles. While recommending
adverse action on the bill the Commits
sions add that although they deem the
proposed legislation inadvsable at present,
they hope that at some time in the future
conditions will change so as to allow the
purpose of the bill to be carried into effect.
In their letter to Congress the District
authorities make the following comment on
the bill and on the situation affecting the
legislation:
1.-THE obvious assumption upon which this
bill is based is that the revenues annually
received by the District, especially from
general taxes lie unused in the treasury
awaiting gradual disbursement over a COM
paratively extended period; while the fact
is that even under normal conditions. when
the annual revenues of the District are
sufficient to meet it's proportion of author
lied expenditures, large part of these
revenues when deposited in the treasury
is at once applied to cover advances made
by the United States for the District s
of such deposits
But the present financial situation of
the District does not permit the adoption
of the policy contemplated by the bill un-
der consideration. for the reason that all
the revenues received for the current fiscal
year and four succeeding fiscal years will
be due the United Sta tes before they are
collected, to repay advances made by the
treasury for the Districts proportion of
extraordinary expenditures. which it's reye-
nues are inadequate to meet
'If the plan, repeatedly and urgently rec
commended by the Commissioners to segre-
gate the appropriations for extraordinary
projects of improvement from the appro-
priations for current administrative pur-
poses should be adopted. and the Dis
trict's proportion of the expenses of the
extraordinary projects provided for by adj
vances from the treasury payable in COM
paratively long term of years by the oper-
alton of sinking-fund arrangement, ac-
cording to a similar practice in every other
municipality, there would undoubtedly be
balances of revenues over current demands,
which might be kept in the local banks
to lessen the great periodical pressures to
which they are subjected in meeting drafts
for tax payments. and that without preju-
dice to any public interest.
