RAISING SPEED LIMIT
STREET CAR OFFICIALS APPEAL
TO COMMISSIONERS.

The officials Of the street railways in the
District believe they are compelled to run
their cars at too slow a gait and want
the Commissioners to increase the present
speed limit. The laws governing the run
ming of street cars provides now that they
shall not exceed twelve miles an hour with
in the city limits and fifteen miles an hour
in the suburban sections.
President G. T. Dunlop of the Capital
Traction Company and Gen. George Har-
ries, vice president of the Washington Rail-
way and Electric Company, have combined
on this question and have filed letters with
the Commissioners asking for this Increase
of speed. They ask that section "a of arti-
Gle 10 of the police regulations, relating
to the movements Of street cars, be amend
ed so as to allow cars to run at the rate
Of fifteen miles an hour within the city
limits and at the rate of twenty miles in
the suburban districts
They declare that this amendment Is not
for the purpose Of leSSening the running
time between terminals, but in order that
the motormen may have a little better
chance to escape arrest for viola ting the
present speed laws. Mr.. Dunlop contends
that 1t is almost impossible to run a car
according to the present restrictions without
violating the law, and he considers the re-
quest just one.
Gen. Harries stated that inasmuch as the
street railways have gone to great expense
OF substitute modern electric motors for
the horse-drawn cars, chiefly to afford the
travelling public faster and better service.
they should be given better opportunities
by the Commissioners. He declares that de-
spite all the electric motors and modern
inventions, the cars do not go much faster
than in the 'old-fashioned days when horse
cars were in vogue"
This matter has been referred to Com
missioner Biddle, upon whose recommends
ton for action will be approved by the
Commissioners.

ceiVed and Maltreated

Sheriff Palmer and the authorities of
Alexandria county. Va, are on the lookout
for colored man charged with criminally
assaulting Odessa Butler, colored living at
1911 9Th street northwest in this city. The
woman says that the assault occurred about
half mile from Rosslyn yesterday about
noon. She reported the matter to the local
police as soon as she reached her home
here, and the Virginia authorities were
notified.
The young woman told the police that
she put an advertisement in local news
paper a few days ago for a service place,
and that colored man called at her house
yesterday morning about 10 o'clock and
stated that he had seen the advertisement
and that he would take her to a service
place near 22d street and Pennsylvania ave-
nue.. She dressed and started out with him.
Before they reached the address which
the man had given he told her that the
people were now living out in the country
beyond Rosslyn, Va, and that he would
take her there first. She consented, she
says. being anxious for the position. They
and upon arriving at Rosslyn they started

RUSSIA LAX ABOUT PEACE.
No Intimation as to What She Will
DO at The Hague.

BERLIN, January 9.-The German gov
eminent was ready months ago to send dele
gates to the second peace conference at
The Hague, but no hint came from st. Pc
tersburg regarding the date of the meeting.
AS Germany never has taken the initiative
in peace conference matters, there is feel
ing that IL an inquiry is to be made of EN-
peror Nicholas concerning the probable
date of the meeting it ought to come from
some other government-the United States,
for instance. which made the first move in
this matter. Great Britain, whose premier
takes deep personal interest in the confer
ence. The Russian governments silence
the subject Is regarded probably being
due to its preoccupation with internal af-
fairs. and its hesitation to enter the confer
ence until it is how the new parla-
ment acts and whether domestic quiet is
fairly restored. Germany's chief delegate
will be an ambassador, but no decision has
been arrived at as to which of the eight am
bassadors of Germany will be selected. The
second and most important delegate of
Germany will be DR.. Kriege of the interna-
tional law division of the foreign Office who
recently was appointed a member of the
international arbitration tribunal of The
Hague.
The question of the suspension of arma-
ments. which is attracting attention in the
United States, a country which 1t is pointed
out is far removed from the European mill
whose paramount sea power and insular po-
sition make her independent of continental
combinations. is. 1t is claimed here, one
that can scarcely be discussed by respon-
sible German statesmen without Impotence.
The declaration of the French premier,
M. Clemenceau, regarding the necessity that
France be prepared for instant war is con-
sidered by the German government as ex-
pressing the temper of the present French
administration. and as being alone a suffi-
cient indication of the fact that the lmita-
ton of ornaments by agreements Is not yet
within the bounds of practical statesman
ship. AS the program to be submitte,. to
the second peace conference at The Hague
is already large and rich In possibilities of
agreements. 1t is felt here that it would be
better to concentrate the attention Of the del
egates on such questions the rights of
private property at sea, the placing of mines
where they are likely to drift in the path of
neutral shipping. the strengthening of the
international arbitration tribunal, and so
on, leaving the question Of disarmament to
the consideration of another peace confer
ence.

United States Court.

Shortly before 8 o'clock yesterday after
noon the grand jury in the United States
court for the eastern district of Virginia.
Judge Edmund Waddill presiding. returned
indictments as follow: Henry Smoot and
James Nelson. charged with endeavoring to
start a revolt on the steamer st. Johns of
the Randall line; Edgar Lopez, alias Ralph
Elms, alias Edward Mires, charged with
making false claim in an application for
an increase of pension, and Edward Lopez,
charged with making fraudulent af1davit
in connection with pension claim.
Judge Waddill overruied a demurrer filed
by Attorney R. Walton Moore in the dam
age suit of Arthur G. Williams against the
Washington. Arlington and Falls Church
Railway Company. The question Is of con-
siderable Importance as to whether or not
the mere fact of transaction occurring on
a government reservation gives the United
States courts jurisdiction. The negative of
this proposition was set up in the demurrer
but Judge Waddill held that the court had
jurisdiction in the premises.
The object of the suit Is to recover dam
ages in the sum OF $4,000 The plaintiff al
leges that Ne was forclbly elected from a,
car of tine defendant company on the Ar
lington reservation. Mr.. Williams is repre-
scented by Attorney Samuel G. Brent.
