State Department Admits It Can Do
Nothing for New Or

Several New Orleans trading companies
complained to the State Department to-
day that because of the apparently in

adding 2 per cent to all charters as a

The State Department has replied to the
companies that it can do nothing for
them and reiterates it's previous assur-
ances that the United States will protect
American ships and American cargoes
against depredations in Nicaraguan
waters.
The department has been sounded with
out avail as to what its attitude would
be II the Venus and the San Jacinto
should hold up the Hornet. The two
Madriz ships have returned to Bluefelds,
the probable port Of the Hornet. AL
though the Hornet Is said to carry sup

can flag. 1t Is generally expected hero
that the Venus and San Jacinto are

ters. Her owners say the Hornet has no
guns mounted and is merely carrying a
cargo. She is in no condition for battle,
but could outsteam either of the Madriz
ships in a chase.

LIMIT ON KEEPING F0WLS|
AMENDMENT TO POLICE REGU-
LATIONS ATTACKED.
Counsel for Miss Sophia c. Pitch.
lynn Contend That Rule Is Un-
authorized and Unconstitutional.

The validity Of the recent amendment to
the police regulations governing the keep
Ing Of fowls within the fire limits of the
District Is being attacked before Judge
Pugh in the Police Court today on a mo-
tion to quash the information recently
filed against Miss Sophia c. Pitchlynn of
11O4 9th street northwest, alleging the
unlawful maintenance of chickens inside
the fire limits within twenty-five feet of a
structure owned by another and used as
human habitation.
In the event of an adverse ruling by the
court, the attorneys for the defense inti-
mate that a long legal battle will ensue.
The arguments upon the motion are being
made by Preston b. Ray and f. Reeves
Braddock for the defense and Assistant
Corporation Counsels Stevens and Smith
on behalf of the District.
The information is based. on the
amendment to section I, article s, of the
police regulations, approved by the Dis
trict Commissioners April IL last, IN
which it Is specifically set forth tnat no
chickens may be kept within twenty-five
feet of dwelling or building occupied
for habitation or employment, icciteu in
side the fire limits, and sets forth u
number of minor provisions, regulating
the equipment of chicken pens, for which
permits have been issued. The regula-
tion was adopted to eliminate the cause
of numerous complaints filed with the
District authorities on account OF noise
made by chickens or the obnoxious con-
dition of chicken yards

Grounds Of Opposition.

The amendment is attacked on the
ground that it is unconstitutional. un-
reasonable, unusual. oppressive and de-
prives the defendant OF the use and en-
joyment OF her property; that it is dis
eliminating legislation and that the pro-
visions of the amendment exceed the au-
tilority granted to the District Commits
sioners to promulgate police regulations
in the act Of January 26. 1887, and the
Joint resolution of February II. 1892.
The argument is proceeding on an agree
ment OF facts to the effect that there is
no nuisance on Miss Pitchiynn's pi elnises
and the chicken yard is in clean and
satisfactory sanitary condition.
One of the points which the defendant s
attorneys argued at length was the st1fi-
tention that the District authorities have
no right to license the keeping of fowls
in the District through the medium of
permits issued by the health officer 1t
was argued that the power to regulate
does not of itself give the power to IL
cense unless expressly provided in the
organic act.
