OPPOSES THE FOSTER BILL.
Secretary Of Georgetown Company
Argues Against Reducing Price of Gas.

The Commissioners have received a COM
nunication from Frank p. Leetch, secre-
tary and treasurer of the Georgetown Gas
light Company, setting forth the argu-
rnents of the company why Senator Eos
ter's bill relative to the reduction in the
price of gas should not be approved by the
Commissioners.
1.-THE Georgetown Gaslight Company,
saws the writer, sis, comparatively speak
ing. a small concern and cannot make and
sell gas at a reasonable profit for less than
the present price, $1.25 per thousand CUBIC
feet. l am advised that this price is
low one for company with an annual out
put of less than 100 600 600 cubic feet
Mr.. Leetch presents a statement which
shows that the output of the company dur
ing the calendar year was 81 ,46s,O0o cubic
feet and that the total amount received
$50, 1873 II The sum of SEQ, 1896 was eX-
pended for the manufacture and distrlbu-
ton of the gas.
From this statement ii plainly appears,
says Mr.. Leetch, that it cost the company
81 .03 per thousand cubic feet for gas which
Senator Fosters bill requires ii to sell al
10 cents per thousand"
Mr.. Geetch states further that to mate
rally reduce the price of gas below that
now authorized by law, will practically
amount to confscation. the statement
also shows that after paying the annua
dividend of $4,000 the surplus was $474 Al

HALLS MUST BE INSPECTED.
Ninety Proprietors Advised of Require
ments of the Law.

The recent order promulgated by the Dis
trict assessor requiring that all halls in
which entertainments are held must be in
spected by the inspector of buildings before
a license for the entertainment can be
granted is having, 1t is stated, the effect
desired by the District authorities. Build
ing Inspector Ashford recently reported to
the Commissioners that there are ninety
halls in the District, only about ten OF
which are licensed as such. 1t seemed OBJ
vious to the officials that the law relating
to the subject of licenses was not being
strictly complied with.
Late Saturday afternoon Building Inspec-
tor Ashford sent out ninety notices to the
propiietors of halls in the city, stating that
IL the halls are to be used for the purposes
of public assemblage they must make appli-
cation for license and be duly inspected.
These notices have apparently already
awakened owners and managers of the
halls to the necessity of complying with the
law. for about fifteen applications for
tor day.
1t is stated that of the ninety halls in the
District a number are used for private pur-
poses by lodges, fraternties and societies.
So long these rooms are not rented to
other parties. it is understood, no license
fee will be required of the owners, but il
they are rented for the use of parties or
societies other than the owners a license
fee win be required and the halls will have
to be approved by the building inspector
before enter tainnnents can Te wen in them

rate lists of the halls used for public pur-

MOTION VOTED DOWN.
Proposition to Change s. A. r. Consti-
ton Meets With Defeat.

At the last regular meeting of the Sons
of American Revolution. held at Rauscher's
Saturday evening, a futile attempt was
made to so change the constitution as to
render its officers ineligible for reelection
to succeed themselves. The meeting was
presided over by DR.. ]. w. Bayne
The question of amending the corstitu-
ton and the heated controversy which en-
sued among the members over it's adop-
ton, 1t Is stated, Is the result of a good
natured clash and rivalry between two fac
ions IN the organization. The purpose of
one is to gain and the other to retain con-
troll of the organization
when the discussion reached its zenith
at the last meeting the champions of
change We're decidedly in the minority and
were unable to combat the strength and
influence of the opposition. The discussions
were spirited and eliminated in a vote, and
motion to lay on the table disposed of the
matter indefinitely.

DECISION IS LEFT
 WITH YOUNG BRIDE
MRS. PRUDIE THoMAS-WHATLEY WILL DECIDE WHETHER SHE WILL LIVE WITH HUSBAND OR FOSTER PARENTS.

Columbus. Ga., September i4-(Special.)- On warrants and counter warrants Dr. r. L. Thomas of Pnenlx City, Ala, Timo- thy Whatley and Green Whatley were ar raigned in Justice Eugene Rays court to- day. Thomas, who is the foster father of Miss Prudie Whatley marrying him de- with Timothy Whatley, marrying him de- spite the protests of her foster parents, swore out warrants against the Whatleys, father and son, for Kidnapping.
 Today young Whatley sued out war rant against Thomas charging him with carrying concealed weapons.
 The young bride returned to her fos- ter parents a day or two ago and when Whatley went to Thomas and asked per- mission to speak with his wife he re- fused him permission, it is claimed and also drew pistol and made him leave the scene.
 When all three parties were before court today a settlement was made and all three warrants were withdrawn. Thomas said he would leave it to the voung girl to decide whom to live with her husband or her parents. She is now with her parents.
