ssThe Embassy Ball"

At the National Theater next week Dam
Tel Frohmap will present Lawrence D'Orsay
in Augustus Thomas latest play. THE EN-
bassy Ball." the scenes of which are To-
Gated in Washington. The comedy had its
coming out a few weeks ago. The author
has since eliminated that feature Of the
play touching upon the Panama incident
therefore It's presentation in Washington
will be in fact the initial performances In
Its reconstructed form. Mr.. D'Orsay plays
the part of the military attache of the Brit
ish embassy. He has formerly filled this
position in Paris, and while there becomes
acquainted with three American girls, who
figure in the story Of the comedy from the
starting point to les conclusion. THE EN-
bassy Bali may well be regarded as dis
tinctively a Washington play, yet Its prin-
cfpal characters are national In their i'm
port The comedy is in three acts, and
each is laid in the northwestern section OF
the city, supposed to be near Dupont Cir
Gle. and not far distant from the British
embassy. About two years ago Mr.. Thomas
came to Washington, where he remained
some two or three months, absorbing ma
terial for this play 1t deals with both So
cial affairs and politics.

ADDITION TO EQUIPMENT.
Firehghter Supplied With Four Hart
Turret Pipes, With MOBILES.

The equipment of the District fireboat.
The Ffrefghter, received an addition yester-
day, when Chief Machinist Robinson of
the District of Columbia fire department
installed four Hart turret pipes aboard the
boat with their supply of nozzles Of vari-
GUS sizes. These pipes were attached to
four of the athwart ship openings from the
big pumps OF the fireboat, and will, it is
stated add much to the effectiveness of the
boat as firefghter when she Is called
into service. These Hart turret pipes look
very much like the big monitor nozzels
that the fireboat was equipped with when
she first came to this city, and are 50 con-
structed that the stream of water can be
directed in any direction by one man ham
ding the pipe, and the size Of the stream
thrown depends entirely upon the size noz-
gle used. The MOBILES are built with web
bling of metal inside them to arrest the
whirling motion of the water as It comes
under the heavy pressure from the pipes,
and to cause it to go long distance in
a solid body instead of breaking up into
spray as was done by many of the old
style hose pipes and nozzles. The Freight
er is ready to render effective service should
she be called upon to fight fire along
the water front section of the city.

THE BUTLER-AME BILL
COMMISSIONERS OPPOSE, BUT DE-
CLINE TO DISCUSS IT.

The Commissioners declined today to COM
ment on the provision in the Butler-Ames
bill transferring the department of insur-
Rnce of the District of Columbia to the
national Department of Commerce and
Labor. According to their custom they
make no comment on any bill unless it IS
referred to them by q committee of Con-
gress. and then only in their official re-
PORTS It Is easy 70 infer, however. from
their attitude as shown in official reports
or other subjects that they would not favor
the transfer Of the department of insurance
to any Of the departments OF the national
government. They stand for the unity and
autonomy OF the District government. and
do not believe that it's functions should be
divided up among the departments of the
national government They think that good
local government requires that the affairs
of the District should be kept in the hands
OF the municipal corporation created by
Congress as its executive agency for the
management of those affairs. According to
the uniform decisions OF the United States
Supreme Court, the District Of Columbia
is a municipal corporation for those pur-
poses and the District government Is not
in any sense a part of the national eXecu-
tive government. The Commissioners stand
for self-government by the public opinion
of the community, and resist every attempt
to eliminate self-government and put the
District under the national executive de-
partmentS.
Always Opposed.
The propositions made from time to time
to dismember the District government and
distribute its different functions among the
national executive departments have al
ways been opposed by the Commissioners
as contrary to the theory of the Constitu-
ton, the uniform legislation of Congress
and the uniform decisions of the courts and
hostile TO the interests of the people Of the
District. This Is their funda mental OBJ
lection to the propositions for the trans
fer of the public school system to the ma
the people and the practice of a century.
Commissioner Macfarland in speaking of
the general subject, said that there was no
more reason for transferring one depart
ment of the District government to the ma
uondl government than for transferring an
other, and that If such propositions were
carried to their logical conclusion all the
departments of the District government
would be distributed among the ma tional
executive departments according to their
respective functions; so that the people of
the District would have no local govern
ment, no voice in the admins ira ton of their
own affairs, and would have to deal with
many separate bureaus scattered all
through the departments of the national
government. He added, however, that he
had no idea that Congress would ever de-
part from its constitutional course of deal
Ing with the District of Columbia as its
municipal corporation agent for local gov
ernment.

The river and harbor men wound up their
session yesterday with call at the White
House, which they declared afterward was
one of the most satisfactory features Of
the whole meeting. The President received
them cordially and his talk was more of the
heart-to-heart order than Is usually given
to delegates calling at the White House
There were more than 200 members in the
party. They were introduced in turn to
President Roosevelt by Harvey D. Goulden,
the newly appointed president of the con-
gress. The President, in greeting the dele
gates, said:
1T is a very great pleasure to have the
chance of greeting you at the White House
this afternoon. l sometimes have visitors
who want to discuss with me matters in
which I am not interested, but congress
like this ia always welcome, because this
has at heart the affairs in which the whole
nation is deeply concerned, for 1t Is unneces-
sary to say that those who live remote from
any navigable river, from any deep-sea har-
Dor, have almost as great, though an 1ndl-
rect, concern in their proper care and de-
velopment as those who live right on the
borders. for the development of our COM
MERGE depends in large part upon the same

character. The love of Burke for Mary
Nugent, his affairs with the Prince OF
Wales. his rise as a statesman and the ulti-
mate winning Of the girl he loves form the
chief incidents of the play. The period of
the play affords opportunity for beautiful
costumes, and the scenic production has
been given great care. Mr. Olcott will in
