DEALS WITH WAGON TIRES

In the event of the opposition TO the
pending Babcoclz bill. requiring all
wagons Of more than two tons burden
to be equipped with four-inch tires. de-
velopine INTO concrete form, the Dis
trict Commissioners viii probably give
a public hearing on the subject. Al
though no definite action has been
taken by the local interests to be ar
fected by the passage Of the pending
measure, 1t is not thought that the Com
missioners would deny such hearing,
Look to House Committee.
In view of the fact that the Commits
sIoners have not been invited to make
a report on the Babcock bill, it was
stated today that they would first look
10 the House committee 10 invite the
suggested hearing. but N case an invita-
ton did not come within q reasonable
time, would satisfy the local sentiment
for the hearing. and forward a report of
its results TO Congress.
Colonel Biddle Interested.
Engineer Commissioner BiddIe said
that the Commissioners had so far re-
mained passive on the subject of the
proposed bill. because they had not been
asked by the House committee to make
any suggestions or report as to its de

bill, he said. was keen. but as to the
attitude Of his two colleagues he could
not say Their attitude. lie thought,
would depend entirely upon the strength
of local opposition and the action of the
House committee regarding q report.
Similar legislation to the pending bill
was asked for in 1891, but failed in
