SUGGEST PERSON ALTAX
MARKET COMPANY A PUBLIC
SERVICE CORPORATION.
So Designated in Report of the Dis.
trict Commissioners on Pend
ing Legislation.

Arguing that the Washington Market
Company Is public-service corporation
to a limited extent, the Commissioners, In
the course Of report to the House Dis
trict committee on H r. bill 15441, have
recommended that the Market company
hereafter be required to pay personal
or franchise tax of 4 per centum on it's
gross earnings.
The bill In question proposed authorizing
the Washington Market Company to lay a
conduit and pipes along street abutting
square 461, and is amendatory to the bill
approved February %, 1908. whereby the
company was allowed to extend Its conduit
and pipes across 18th street west. Comment.
ing upon the whole question, the Commits.
sioners make the following statements in
their report:
The object of laying these conduits is
that the market company may supply re-
frigerating fluid to commercial concerns To-
Gated In square i81. The Commissioners
have no objection to the laying of these
conduits under the conditions named in the
bill, but invite attention to the fact that
in furnishing this refrigerating fluid the
market company is In fact public service
corporation to a limited extent and that It
should pay some percentage on its bust
ness such public service corporation in
the same manner as gas, electric light and
telephone companies.
Paragraph Five.
by paragraph five of act of Congress
approved July l. 1902, providing for the
taxation of personal property in the Dis
trict of Columbia, gas companies
quired to pay 8 per centum and electric
lighting and telephone companies per
centum of their gross earnings. and the
Commissioners believe that this company
should be required to pay a personal or
franchise tax of 4 per centum on its gross
earnings in this business OF furnishing re-
frigerating fluid to private establishments.
They therefore recommend that new
section be added to the bill as follows:
e 1Section2. That said Washington Market
Company shall make affidavit to the board
of personal tax appraisers on or before the
first day of August each year as to the
amount of it's gross earnings for the pre-
ceding year ending the Both day of June
from the conduit conduits herein author
ICED to be laid, and shall pay to the COL
lector of taxes of the District of Column
bia the sum of per centum per annum on
such gross earnings.
Such provision was not Recommended
by the Commissioners when the original
act permitting the laying OF this conduit
was passed, as IL was understood the dis
tribution of this refrigerating fluid was to
he from conduits laid on private property
in the square (461), and IL was only the
intention OF the proposed law that author
ity to cross the street should be given. AS
IT is proposed in this bill to make the dis
tribution from conduits laid In the public
street and alley, however, the Commission
ers believe the District of Columbia should
derive q revenue from this use OF public
space
