PIzTscH GAS HEARING.
Erection Of Plant in South Brookland
ID CONTESTED.

The District Commissioners today granted
public hearing relative to the application
OF the Pintsch Gas Company for a permit
to erect and operate gas plant at the
corner Of Empor1a and 9Th streets, In South
BTookland Many residents of Brookland
were present at the hearing and protested
against the location Of the plant in that
vicinity. At the close OF the arguments the
Commissioners stated that they would give
the matter careful consideration and an
nCunce their decision later.
The property owners in Brookland were
represented before the Commissioners by
Attorney Charles Douglass, who stated that
objection to the proposed location OF the
gas works was made because the erection
OF the plant would depreciate the value of
all the property adjacent to the company's
holdings. He said this would be the re-
suit of the noxious odors from the escap-
Ing gas. He also claimed that there would
be a certain element of danger to the sur
rounding houses from the plant.
The gas company was represented by At
torney Fred d. McKenney. who said that
the company has purchased the land in
South Brookland for the purpose of erect
ing and operating a plant there. He ar
gued that the Commissioners have no au-
thorfty under the law to prevent the COM
pany using its property as proposed, since,
he said. the company has complied with all
the regulations governing the construction
of gas plants in the District
