GAS STOCK HEARING SET BY
HOUSE COMMITTEE.
Members Named to Unite With
Senator'S in Inquiry of Subject
If Decided Upon.

Again, today, the House committee on
the District Of Columbia failed to act on
the Johnson Sunday closing bill. The
committee took favorable action on foul
measures, and tabled bill and resolu-
ton.
Favorable report was authorized on the
following measures:
Senate bill 27S1. to provide for the ex-
tension of 10th street from Belmont road
to Biltmore street.
H. r. 1871, increasing the number OF
incorporators of ST. Vincent's Orphan
Asylum.
H. r. 1S4O9, regulating wages In the
District Of Columbia.
II, r. 1880. extending the time fol
the construction OF the East Washington
Heights traction railroad.
The committee decided to table n.
2247S, requiring the Washington. Balu'
more and Annapolis road to make reports
to Congress.

stroke Cambridge also had three ola
men in r. W. M. Arbuthnot, bow; +. G.
Williams at No. and j. D. Besher at
NO. 6.
The latter was the heaviest man IN
either crew, tipping the beam at lv9
pounds. The Oxford eight. however, was
much the heavier.
Today's event was the sixty-seventh
Oxford-Cambridge race. Oxford has now
won thirty-six contests and Cambridge
thirty: In 1877 the race ended in dead
heat.
The fastest time on record Is IS min.
utes ~ seconds, made by Oxford In 1875
and by Cambridge in 1900.
The date Of the race is usually the
Saturday before holy week: 1t was
changed this year, however, because OF
the tides and also because of the early
close Of Lent.
When It was announced that the race
would take place in holy week there were
grave protests from clergymen. The col
iege athletic authorities explained the
situation and also agreed that the usual
jovial event on the evening after the race
should be abandoned.
