Officials Declare.

The enactment OF a law compelling for
eign corporations doing business in the
District of Columbia to file with the re-
corder Of deeds certified copies OF their
charters. with the payment of the nee
essary fees for filing, would increase the
revenues Of the District by more than
$4,000 year. according to the opinion
Of officials here. bill making such
provisions Is now before Congress. It
Is pointed out that, with four or five ex-
ceptions. every state and territory in
this country has a law to this effect.
The recorder Of deeds Of the District
several days ago received from an at
torney in New York a certified copy of
the certificate Of Incorporation under
the laws of that state of Good Roads,
Incorporated" with the request that the
certified copy be recorded in the local
recorder Of deeds Office.
There being, as the New York lawyer
admitted, no law in force in tho Dis
trtct Of Columbia requiring a foreign
corporation. as a condition precedent to
engaging in business here, to file a GER
titled copy Of its charter or certificate OF
corder Of deeds, or in any other District

to United States Attorney Wilson for
his opinion whether the recorder was

In referring the matter to the United
States attorney. the recorder said:
Should there be. In your opinion. no
law or reason why this certified copy
should not be accepted for recordation
by this Office. its recordation would at
least establish a precedent which, be-
coming generally known. would. It is be-
lieved. induce other foreign corporations
to do likewise, though not required by
law to SO do, an eminently desirable re-
suit. 1t is respectfully suggested"
In reply to the recorder Of deeds in

said:
I'm my opinion there Is nothing in the
code prohibiting the recorder Of deeds
from accepting for record and recording
the inclosed certified copy Of the GER

cate is executed and acknowledged by
the incorporators thereof according to

]. EVERS CLAIMS
LUCK Will TURN
CUB SECOND BASEMAN THINKS
HIS TEAM WILL BE IN RUN
MING FOR CHAMPIONSHIP
AGAIN.

Troy. n. Y, Feb. S.-Johnny Evers.
the great Cub second baseman, is go
ing TO play ball again this year and he
claims that his leg which he had brok
en- during a game in Cincinnati few
weeks before the season closed last
year, is as strong as ever and will not
interfere with his playing in the least.
This glad news will surely be received
with great JOY by thousands of ball
fans all over the country. for If ever
there was popular player in the bus
mess it is Evers.
Evers is the player who pulled off
the great stunt of doing the Giants out
Of the pennant two years ago by tag
ging out MerBle after he had failed to
touch second base.
In an interesting interview Evers
has the following to say:
Yes. / am surely going to play this
season, and / have not signed as yet
although ! am anticipating no trouble
In that direction. My leg appears and
feels as good If not better than ever;
in fact. it feels so good l am thinking
seriously of breaking my other leg.
"Now. in regard to the different
teams chances, / have said all along
that the team that wins in the Nation
al league the coming year will have to
beat the Giants TO do it-this is no
bull. either; II is on the level-and
honestly think that the team that is
capable of doing it is none other than
the same Cub team.
"They seem to harp on our being all
in and gone back too old and several
other things that always come to the
team that loses in a championship
series. but when you look over our
team critically. where is the weakness
Here are few things l had to con-
tend with last year which will show
how much I was up against old hard
luck / had my automobile hit by a
trolley car and my friend Mcdonald
killed; I broke my leg just before
series I waited and waited patiently to
play in on account OF it being so near
home, as our other series were all
played in the west.
"Now. TO cap the climax just as I
was getting along smoothly in Chica-
go in my shoe business there ] received
a telegram calling me home to my shoe
business here. as my partner had run
out on me and gone, whereabouts un-
known.
However feel as II my luck had
changed, for last July we moved our
store across from where we did busi-
ness for five years, and the morning I
came TO work only to find the whole
block where we formerly occupied
store burned TO the ground and many
hrcmen hurt and one killed"

the tents experts here by many of the
United States National Lawn Tennis
associations An agitation has been
under way TO take the championships
away from Newport and transfer them

1t was said, however that the senti-

players was against Newport and rep
resentatives from that section still ex-
pressed hope that the reported collapse
of the plan TO transfer the scene of the

COUNCIL HOLDS
SHORT MEETING
MARCH 2 SELECTED AS DATE OF
VILLAGE CAUCUS-MAY IN
STALL NEW SYSTEM OF
ACCOUNTING.

The monthly meeting of the Laur-
ium council which was held last even
ing proved one of the shortest of the
year and very little new business was
considered. 1t was decided that the
village caucus would be held on March
? and as the election will not take
place until March 13, eleven days will
intervene between the caucus and the
election.
The following officers were named
to preside at the election:
Election commissioners. c. Mills,

Inspectors. Galipeau. b. Holm
strom, j. B. Rastello and ]. G. Light.

and NJ. Prisk. ,..---
Clerks-M. Prisk and Sam Jeffery.
The council received a petition from
property holders on the south side of
Lake Linden avenue, from lots one to
seven of block ten asking for a re-
bate on the special taxes that have
been levied for the cement sidewalks
laid adjoining these premises. The pc
tition was based on the claim that
a former village council had promised
to keep board walks laid by the prop
erty holders i'm good condition and to
replace them without cost OF neces-
sary. Village Attorney T.. II. O'Brien
TO make promise of this kind and
that if the petition were granted, a
proredent would be established which
might affect other parts of the VIII

petition.
The council also decided to investi-
gate the merits OF the Preston system
of bookkeeping and If found satisfac-
tory, it is practically certain that the
system will be adopted i'm Laurium.
The clerk and the finance committee
will go to Hancock tomorrow after
noon to look over the books of that
village as the Preston system was in
stalled there some time ago and is said
to be giving satisfaction. II has long
been recognized that the village was in
need of a new accounting system and
as the fiscal year of the village will
close on Feb. 81, an attempt may be
made to have the new system in opera
ton with the opening of the new year.
The reports of the clerk and street
commissioner as presented to the
council last evening were as follows:
