Conduit Road.

The efforts Of certain interests to secure
the closure of the Conduit road as public
highway because OF the recent actions OF the
Glen Echo officials to enforce their loca
speed rules along a part Of that thorough
fare have reached the point Of reference
OF the question to the Attorney General.
The Judge Advocate General Of the army
has already ruled that the Conduit road is
public highway, basing his decision on
the acts of Congress which annually appro'
pirate for the repair and maintenance OF the
road. The chief law officer of the govern
ment may of course override this finding
and crafty those who are forcing the Issue.
Whatever comes Of the appeal from the
Judge Advocate Generals decision, the
move strikes this community as petty ma
newer, very much Of the dog. in -the'manger
variety. The whole trouble arises from q
perfectly sensible endeavor on the part OF
certain Maryland authorities to safeguard
life on the main street of the town. In this
effort they have aroused the resentment OF
small percentage of the District people who
have acquired the habit of speeding their
motor cars beyond the limits set by the
Glen Echo town council. Had 1t not been
for the discontinue of the diplomats who
were overhauled in order to be identified
the matter would never have come to a
focus.
Conduit road has been public highway
for many years. It has been used as such
not only by the local public, in pursuit Of
pleasure, but by large number OF people
living in Maryland, who have found II
their chief means OF entrance Into the Dis.
trict. To close 1t now, after the long period
of its enjoyment under what has seemed TO
be a perpetual guarantee Of continuance,
would impose serious hardship upon thou
sands. 1t may be questioned, without
trenching upon the Attorney Generals prov
ince in the matter, whether the United States
government by its maintenance Of the road
has not created vested rights in the enjoy.
ment of the thoroughfare which can not DO

his guilt. Therefore he is acquitted. II
might be miscarriage Of justice, said the
Court, but 1t was no fault of the Court, the
States Attorney, nor the Grand Jury that
made the presentment, but the fault OF the

in the cross examination.

Runaway AGO ident.-While Mr.. @.
P. Jones, of Forest Glen, this county, was
driving across the electric railway track at
that place in conveyance with his three
daughters, Misses Alice, Lottie and Blanche
Jones, about 10 o'clock on Thursday night
of last week the horse attached to the vehi-
Gle became frightened, due TO receiving an
electro shock, caused by the animals iron
shoe coming In contact with the track, and
ran away. As the animal dashed across
the track the carriage was overturned and
the young ladies thrown upon the road.
The traces gave way and the horse broke
from the carriage, leaving 1t at the roadside.
Mr.. Jones became entanged in the reins
and was dragged for about one hundred
yards before he managed 10 extricate him
self from his perilous position. Although
suffering from serious decorations Of the
scalp he hurried back TO his daughters.
Miss Alice was in an unconscious condi-
ton with several scalp wounds, while Miss
Lottie had an arm broken and Miss Blanche
had suffered scalp wounds. Mr.. j. N
Shauck, station agent of the b. q y. rail-
road at Forest Glen. fastened to the aid oil
Mr.. Jones and his daughters, and they were
taken to the hospital at the National Park
Seminary, a short distance away, where
they are attended by physicians.
Later they we're taken to their home' on
the road TO Chevy Chase Lake and shorl
distance from Forest Glen. An examination
disclosed that, although the skull OF Miss
Alice was fractured, the injury is not &c
serious as was at first supposed. She WA
unconscious from the time she was taken
to her home until the next morning, but il
believed now to be upon the road to recov
cry. The father and other daughters ar
able TO be about.
