COST OF NEW CURB.
Owners Investigating Assessments
Against Fifth Street Property.

Permission to examine all the records and
documents in possession of the engineer de-
partment of the District relating to the
setting Of new curb was requested Of the
Commissioners today by Attorneys Hallam
& Hallam. This law firm represents num-
Der OF property owners living on 9Th street
east between East Capitol and c streets.
and they desire to ascertain for the benefit
of their clients whether the special assess
ments for the curb as levied by the District
were legal and should be paid.
They declared in their appeal to the Com
missioners that when they made a request
to inspect the records the officials Of the
engineer department referred them to the
corporation counsel. The attorneys argued
that it should not be necessary to obtain
the authority from the corporation counsel,
as an act of May 80, 1892. provides that all
public records shall be open to the public
without cost.
The papers in the case have been referred
to Commissioner West and will be acted
upon tomorrow.

Where Shelley Wrote "The Cenci."
From the New York Globe

On the walls OF the palace on the Corso.
where Shelley lived for time, until the
death Of his child, the Roman municipality
have affixed the now usual tablet. And this
tablet shows a very curious little misun-
Outstanding and divergence Of verbal hab-
its between Italy and England. Here"
says the inscription, Shelley wrote The
Cenci'" But the words of the italian
are La Cenci." Now, Englishman
could possibly read Shelley's title but as
family name-''The Cenci,' In the plural.
That an Englishman should call Beatrice
1.-The Cenci" in the feminine singular, as
one may speak of ia Duse" or ia Patti,
is altogether inconceivable. To the italian
municipal mind it seemed that Shelley nat
urally called his heroine and his tragedy
La Cenci." What pity that none but
editors decline English articles!

In Roumania.

From the New York Globe.
Roumania resembles England only In
point of size. Compared with the bewilder-
ing variety of races that have gone to the
making of the new nation, we, with our
mixed ancestry. are homogeneous people
Whether of Greek, Slav or Teutonic de-
scent, however, the modern Roumanian
makes 1t point of honor to claim descent
from the colonists whom Trajan planted
in the conquered province of Dacia. AID.
107. Calling themselves Romuni and their
language Romunie. the proud citizens sell
dom draw out legal document without
some allusion to their founder, whom they
style ''the divine Trajan..' The Roumanian
language reflects the composition Of the
race, and now but family suggests the Ian
guage which Trajan spoke.

REMARKABLE HALF YEAR
IN BUSINESS ACTIVITY

New York.-Bradstreet's regular
weekly review says:
A week of comparative quiet in
wholesale trade but of improved re-
tail distribution, favored by warmer
weather, closes a half year period the
like of which for activity and volume
of business done has probably never
before been equalled. Bank c~learings,
foreign trade returns, railway carr.
ings, statistics Of iron production,
railway building and all available
measures of trade and industrial vol
ume go to confirm this view, despite
numerous disturbing elements such as
congressional debates on rate bills,
disturbed money market conditions,
insurance legislation, the San Fran.
cisco fire and the coal strikes which
tended perhaps to modify what might
otherwise have been superabundant
activity.
