Washington, April 4 The con

session got as tar as the main issue
and adjourned to meet Thursday
when the Arizona and New Mex

RENDERS AN OPINION
VIEWS OF q. S. ATTORNEY RE-
aARDINa INCORPORATION.

United States Attorney Baker has. in re-
plv to an inquiry of Recorder OF DEEDS
Dancy. sustained the action of Deputy Re-
corder Dutton in refusing to accept for
record a proposed certificate Of incorpora-
ton of the Supreme Lodge of the Improved
Order of the knights of the Mystic Chain
of the World of the District OF Columbia,
agreeing with the deputy recorder that q
fraternai beneficial association cannot be
Incorporated under sub-chapter III of Chap
ter XVIII Of the District code. United
States Attorney Baker also sustained the
contention of Deputy Recorder Button that
since Congress has differentiated In sub
Chapter III eight or more different purposes
for. which a corporation may be formed
hereunder, 1t nevertheless contemplated In
corporation for specific purposes, and not
one general Incorporation. empowered to
carry on all the different branches.
In the proposed certificate the persons
presenting 1t for record proposed that the
association should be devoted to charitable,
beneyoIent. religious, educational and liter
airy purposes, which, the United States at
torney holds are In no manner necessarily
identical The proposed incorporators also
sought to provide for the establishment of
a hospital for the poor, to organize differ
emit and subsidiary lodges and associations
and to create benefit fund to be devoted
to the purposes which the United States at
torney held are not authorized by sub
Chapter III. but to be accomplished rather
by fraternal beneficial associations.
Wide Range Of Activity.
Incidentally, the proposed certificate also

announced an intention to publish a news
paper. Obviously. the United States at
torney remarked, the wide range Of activity
marked out by the proposed certificate is
entirely too comprehensive for incorpora-
ton under the sub-chapter in question.
Answering a second inquiry of Recorder
Dancy, as to whether under sub-Chapter
Ill a certificate may embrace more than
one of the purposes mentioned therein
United States Attorney Baker said:
II am Of the opinion that you should FOL.
low by analogy the decision OF the Court or
Appeals in the case of Dancy vs. Clarke
There is no adjudication of this question
under this sub-chapter. 1t would appear,
however, that since Congress has diHeren-
tiated eight or more different purposes FOR
which a corporation may be formed there
under. that it contemplated Incorporation for
poration. empowered to carry out all the diff
ferent branches In section 500 Of the code 1t
is expressly required that the corporation
shall state the particular business of the
society. 1t may be that in some cases one
of the purposes Of the society mentioned In
the sub-chapter may overlap and become
merged In another In the course Of its OBJ
benevolent corporation may be very much
akin to charitable corporation; religious
with q missionary; but there IL no neces-
sary connection between q literary and
scientific corporation, or musical and
missionary, ETC. Inasmuch as the business
of all of the different specified purposes are
for the promotion of the spiritual! and ma
terial welfare of man, you can exercise GER
tain iberality in considering the different
things to be stated in the certificates as
the sub-purposes Of any one specific pur-
pose designated In section 500"

FAVoRs HIGHER PRICE.
DR.. Woodward Believes Advance Will
Improve Quality of Milk.

DR.. w. C. Woodward. the District health
officer, favors the proposed increased in
the price of milk. He believes the plan of
the wholesale milk dealers to advance the
prices of this commodity would benefit the
men would be compelled to observe more
strictly the regulations of the milk law
and would deliver better and more pure
product into the District.
He stated, when speaking on this sub
ject, that according to the present prices
of milk there is little or no profit to farm
ers who sell their product wholesale.
when the cost and transportation is
taken into consideration" he said, milk
at 10 cents a gallon costs nearly that sum
to produce"
He based his statement, regarding the
raising of the quality of milk with the
price, upon the fact that there is a clause
in bill relating TO the milk traffic, now
pending in Congress, which provides that
no milk or cream shall be sold, otherwise
than as sour and buttermilk, unless the
same has been cooled properly, immediate
ly after the milk has been taken from the
cow.
It will be impossible for them, the farm
erS say, to comply with these proposed
regulations at the present scale of prices,
as it will necesstate the purchase of Ice,
and DIR. Woodward believes that the sue
cessful way to deal with this question,
which will prove satisfactory to all con-
cerned, is the proposed increase in the
prices.
II the prices are not advanced he looks
for a slump In the milk market, as he is
Of the opinion that unless the price goes
up many farmers now engaged in selling
their milk wholesale will discontinue after
the new regulations are put int effect.

FREAKISH WEATHER.
Year 1906 to Maintain It's Record
Until the Close.

1t appears from reports received by the
weather bureau today that the year 1906
which entered upon its rounds last jan
uary with freakish meteorological condi-
tons, will maintain its record to the
last When Prof. A. ]. Henry, one of the
Official forecasters, was asked by Star
reporter this afternoon as to the weather
outlook he replied:
The outlook is uncertain. Almost the
whole country is covered by an area Of
low pressure and conditions appear to be
weak and broken. There is no more cold
weather In sight and from present indica-
tons the weather will be warmer for the
next three or four days The only thing
on the map that appears to be certain to-
day is that we will have a short neriod Of
warm weather."
Some of the attaches Of the weather
bureau are enjoying good laugh at the
expense of the long range Pennsylvania
forecasters who predicted early and often
that the week from Christmas day to New
Year would find the middle states, including
the District Of Columbia, covered with deep
snow, while all lakes, ponds and rivers
would be frozen to a great depth and the
general conditions would be decidedly
blizzardy.
Old citizens declare their faith in the
venerable adage that a green New Year
day means decidedly cold weather through
out February and March. However. 1t is
said, In view of the present uncertainty
there may be turn about by next Tues
DAY, and the day may not be a green one
after all. Il
