GAS RATE Up TO CONGRESS
Facts and Figures at Hand Should
Enable Fixing of Fair Price.
Commissioners, in Their FOrthcOm-
ing Recommendations, TO Make
strong Hint of Duty.

In the recommendations which the
Commissioners viii make to Congress at
the coming session. touching the secur-
ing of a lower rate for gas in the Dis
trict. it will be asserted that Congress
should be able, through the reports of ex-
perts and through information received
from the gas companies themselves, TO
fix a fair rate for this fuel
While Commissioner mcfarland. who
made the statement last night that Con-
gress should be able 70 obtain this in
formation, would not say that the rates
charged by the Georgetown Gaslight
Company and the Washington Gaslight
Company are excessive. The fact that
Congress will be asked 10 lower these
rates is an indication that they are re-
garded as too high
Commissioner Macfarland said also that
the rates fixed by Congress should re
main until a further reduction may be
made possible by improved methods Of
production or by an increase in the num-
Der of consumers.
In speaking of the recommendations
along this line that viii be made 20 Con
greSS at the coming session, COulIIlS-
sioner mcfarland said: The Commis-
sioners will renew to Congress the recon-
mendations made at the last session that
the price Of gas be reduced to whatever
price will give the Washington and
Georgetown Gaslight companies a reason
able profit On the recommendation Of
the Commissioners, Congress required the
gas companies TO give a detailed annual
report of their operations. These reports,
with other information which Congress
can obtain from experts, ought 10 enable
ii TO fix the price at the lowest possible
point.
'The Commissioners have no means OF
what that price ought to be,
but whatever it is, it should be fixed at
that point until a further reduction is
made possible by improved methods Of
production or by larger number Of con-
sUmers-
In the proceedings Of the Georgetown
Gaslight Company for an increase Of its
capital stock. the Commissioners. through
their representative, the corporation
counsel, are making every effort to see
that no action be taken that will tend to
prevent whatever reduction ought TO be
made in the price of gas"

DEMANDING ALL L-NIGHT CARS
mo Seat, No Fare" Cry to Be
Raised in Congress.
Democratic Members VIII Introduce
the Bill, Which Is Expected
10 BE Literally Supported.

Early in the coming session Of Con-
gress. one Of the bills that will affect the
interests OF District people viii be one 10
regulate street car traffic, on the basis
Of no seat no fare 10 compel the
operation Of night, or owl c1rs. on all
lines. and providing for a smoking car, 10
be run during the rush hours morning and
evening.
The bin viii be introduced by a Demo-
cratic member. and viii be supported by
many of the local patrons Of the car
lines. and some Of the citizens associa-
tions, led, probably, by the Northeast
Citizens Association.
The complaint IS made that the present
accommodations are entirely inadequate
for the demands, and this IS said to be
especially true concerning the all-night
cars. OF which there are but three lines
IN ooeration-the Pennsylvania avenue
and Fourteenth street Capital Traction
lines, and the Georgetown-Lincoln Park
line. on the Washington Electric Com
pauy's lines. The latter line never has
run with the regularity Of the others. the
owls" having frequently been suspended
because OF the necessity for repairs on
the lines.
The bill will provide for some kind Of
an equitable arrangement SO that the
companies will not be compelled TO oper-
ate their cars at a loss. but it has been
suggested by a prominent member Of a
citizens association that all cars should
run at least once an hour between and
o'clock in the morning.
There is probably not section Of the
city. according TO the hackers Of the bill.
but that would maintain an all-nighT line.
Such bills have been introduced before,
hut have never been sufficiently backed
TO go 20 passage.
The other features-more cars and
smoking cars-win receive the hearty
support Of thousands Of the government
clerks. many of whom are invariably
compelled TO stand going 10 and from
work. oftentimes on cold platforms, and
many times at the risk Of their lives, on
running boards.
II IS anticipated that. with strong
enough backing. such bin would be IA
vorably reported by the District Commit
tee, and il IS understood there will be
concerted action on the part Of the pub
lie organization TO do everything possible
TO get the bill made into law.

PRIEST AGAINST BROTHER.
Father Nicola Chief Witness for
Prosecution In Forgery Charge.

Father Nicola Chief Witness for
Prosecution in Forgery Charge.
Rev Nicola JaselH. a Catholic priest.
was the chief witness for the prosecution
in the trial of his brother, Emelio Jaselli,
which was begun yesterday on an indict-
ment charging forgery. Emelio is charged
with having forged the name Of Nicola to
four international money orders of the
value OF S3l45l.
Attorney RalstOn, who with H. Winship
Wheatley appears for the defense, stated
to the jury that the money represented
by the money orders came from Italy.
and was part Of the proceeds of a sale Of
property of an uncle of both men, and
was a legacy to the clergyman. Mr.
Ralston stated that Emelio had been the
main support of the family, and had ad-
vanced 500 to Nicola to bring him and
his father to this country, and this money
Nicola had never repaid until a judgment
was obtained against him last summer
Mr. RalstOn also said that the present
prosecution was one of revenge on the
part Of Nicola in retaliation for his
brother suing him and obtaining judg-
ment
Father Nicola said that he had never
authorized any one to sign the orders or
receive the money for him. He admitted
on cross-examination that the relations
between himself and Emelio had been
strained for some time
Edward Jaselli, another brother, testi-
fed that Nicola, about two months before
the receipt of the money in the presence
of their mother, sister. and Emelio, au-
thorized Emelio to sign the orders. and
agreed with the other members Of the
family that the father should have the
money.
Mrs Jasell and the sister in question
were placed on the stand, and corrob-
GRATED Edwards statement their testi-
mony being taken through an interpreter.
The case will be continued Monday.

COMPANY B IS CONVICTED
Held Responsible for Shooting Up
the Town ef Brownsville.
Finding Made by General CrOzier
and Report Contains story of
the Investigation.

Brig. Gen. William erozer. chief OF the
Bureau Of Ordnance. places the response
bility for the shooting up of the town of
Brownsville upon the single company, E,
OF the, Twenty-ffth Infantry, and in
ferentially exonerates the other two COM
panies which made up the battalion mus
tered out on account of the Brownsville
affair
As TO the merits OF the punishment in
flicted on the other two companies on ac-
count Of any guilty knowledge as to who
did the shooting Gen. Crozier ventures
no comment
His conclusions as 70 the guilt Of Com
pany 3 are given in the annual report of
the Bureau of Ordnance. made public
yesterday. They are based, he saws, on
information gained from oneaof the most
careful and technical Investigations, the
object Of which was to identify the rife
from which the bullets and cartridge
cases received In evidence were fired.
A trial was made at Springfield Armorv
to determine the possibility Of ascertain
ing from microsopical examination Of
the gun marks on fired cartridge case
the rife from which it had been fired
Thereupon, all of the cartridge cases re-
ceived in evidence and all Of the rifles
which had been at Brownsville in the
hands of troops at such times as would
render Il possible for the cartridge cases
to have been fired from them, were sent
to the Springfield Armory for examina-
ton.
AS a result it was found that OF the
thirty-nine cartridge cases, eleven had
been fired from the same rifle. eight from
another rife. eleven from another rifle
and three from the fourth rife. the re-
naming six having insufficient gun marks
TO classify them. The markings on the
cartridge cases Of each group were then
compared with the markings by all of the
aforementioned rifles, through the me-
dium of auxiliary cartridges fired ar
Springfield in each of the rifles. In this
way il was found that the cartridge cases
comprising groups one, two, ana three
had been fred in three rifles belonging IN
Company 3, Twenty-flfth Infantry. and
that the other cartridge cases Of group
four had probably been fired from an
other Of the rifles In the same company.

for the especial purpose OF choosing a

Mr.. Beattie, when seen last night, ex-

technicality, no delegate was chosen, but
Mr. Beattie. who is vice president of the
international body. was given authority

Mr.. Beattie will leave for the West

first time that at the meeting held by re-
quest of President Small, to determine
the individual sentiment OF the local
strikers. in the matter of returning to
their keys, out Of total attendance Of
1O5 operators. there was only one vote in
favor of returning to work.
While Il is understood that no particu-
lar enthusiasm was manifested at yes
terdays meeting, there was evinced a
firm sentiment not TO give IN under any
condition, unless the strikers demands
are acceded to.

black and white with his sentiments, and
the members Of other organizations have

Visitors from Big Stone Gap, Va,
bring the news that it is quite prob
able that Bascomb Slemp. son Of the
late Campbell Slemp, the only Republi-
can Congressman from Virginia, who
died recently, will be a candidate to sue
ceed his father. and that his Office law
partner, r. TAFT Irving, will be mis- Dem
oeratic opponent
The spectacle of office partners making
the race for the same Office is rather an
unusual one, even for Virginia, and, as
the late Representative Slemp was elected
to the Fifty-ninth Congress by a ma
jority OF but 300 over R. P. Bruce, the
Democratic nominee, it Is anticipated
that every effort will be made to pre-
sent an unbroken Democratic delegation
to the coming session of Congress.
Governor Swanson has not yet named
the date for the election, and will prob
ably not do so for fortnight, but in the
meantime, so far as Is known, the two
men mentioned are the only avowed
candidates In the race.
Bascomb Slemp is a young man. about
forty, and his law partner is about the
same age. Mr.. Slemp has served as the
Republican State chairman in Virginia.
and is said to have much Of the same
following that made his father success
