Rehearing on Glen Echo Case.

Special Correspondence of The Star
ROCKVILLE. Md, November %, 1907.
Mayor John A. Garrett of Glen Echo
expressed himself as confident that there
will be no difficulty about having the
United States Supreme Court pass upon
the questions recently decided by Judge
Henderson in the circuit court here in
connection with the Conduit road cases.
He says he has received the best of
legal advice to that effect. He saws he
recognizes the fact that no appeal from
the action of the circuit court can be
taken, but declares there is another way
to have the questions passed upon by a
higher court
to use the recent refusal of Col Cosby
of the War Department to permit the
town of Glen Echo to make crossings
connecting certain streets of the town
with the Conduit road. the idea being to
institute mandamus or mandatory in
junction proceedings in the Supreme
Court Of the District of Columbia. and
that the constitutional questions involved
would carry the matter to the Supreme
Court OF the United States.
Mr.. Garrett says he does not know
what the town council Of Glen Echo will
do In regard to the fines col ected from
automobilists. He declares if it is de-
cided to return them there is ample
money in the town treasury for the pur-
pose. He has received a communca ton
from Leckie. Fulton & Cox, who repre-
sent number of the automobiles, ask
ing what it is proposed to do in the
mater. but as yet the letter is IN
answered.
