Decides Conduit Road Case.

The Washington Automobiles, through
their attorneys, Messrs. Leckie, Fulton Sc
Douglas, scored victory in the Conduit
Road jurisdiction test case Monday. Judge
Henderson dismissed the charge Of fast
driving in HE automobile against Mr.. John
A. Lutz, of Washington. He also held that
the Conduit Road does not come within the
meaning OF public highway" and that the
State Of Maryland still retains its jurisdic-
ton over the land contained In the Conduit
Road.
10 lengthy oral opinion, covering every
phase of the case, Judge James b. Hender-
son in the Circuit Court here Monday after
noon rendered his decision In the cases of
John A. Lu,z, OF Washington, against the
State of Maryland and the Mayor and Coun-
Gil Of Glen Echo. This cause was appealed
from the action OF Justice of the Peace Rob-
ertson and Mayor John A. Garrett In filming
MIR. Lutz for alleged violation of the auto
mobile regulations of Montgomery county
and town Of Glen Echo, and which involved
the question of the jurisdiction of the State
of Maryland over the Conduit Road and
whether the road is public highway with
in the meaning Of the statute.
Judge Henderson explained that while 1t
was not necessary for him to pass upon the
| question OF the general Jurisdiction Of the
State OF Maryland over the road, lnasmuch
as the United States Government had inter-
vened and had virtually made the issue one
between the government and the State Of
Maryland, he would give the views OF the
| Court on that point.
Judge Henderson further held that the
State of Maryland retained its general juris
diction over the land purchased by the
United States for the purpose of the conduit /;
but that the United States government had
no right to dedicate the Conduit Road TO the
public as highway, and that the public
could not obtain prescriptive right TO use
the road as highway, and that, therefore.
the thoroughisre does not come within the
meaning Of "public highway" as used in
the Maryland statute regulating the speed Of
automobiles.
The Court did not deem it necessary to
pass upon the question of whether or not
the Mayor of Glen Echo could try persons
for the violation Of the ordinances OF that
town. Under Judge Henderson's decision
the action of Mayor Garrett and Justice
Robertson in fining Mr.. Lutz is, of course,
reversed and the defendant acquitted.

There will also be several bills changing
the law in reference to the Orphans Court
and the probate system and bill to i'm
prove the Indexing of the acts of the General
Assembly. The association will urge the
Legislature to make provision biennially
for the indexing OF the acts passed at each
session in more convenient, modern and
scientific manner than is now employed.
At the meeting of the committee on laws
on November 25 all these and some other
bills will be brought up and discussed, and
each member will attend to the drafting OF
one or more OF the bills. There will also
be considerable discussion as to the best
method Of presenting the measures to the
Legislature, and It is likely that special
committee will be named by Gen. l.. Alli-
son Wilmer. president of the association,
to go to Annapolis and urge the passage of
the bar association bills.
The Association may also take stand as an
association against such bills as 1t considers
bad, should any of this kind be introduced
at Annapolis. 1t is the purpose OF those
who take an active interest in the associa-
ton that 1t shall play much more energet-
ic and effective part at the coming session
Of the Legislature than 1t ever has before.
Heretofore the association at Its annual
meetings has made its recommendations as
to changes in the laws and new laws deemed
advisable and then dropped the subject un-
til the next convention. This time 1t Is
proposed to accomplish something, so that

effects Of the previous meeting may be ap.
