COURT ORDERS ELECTION
IN MOUNT RAINIER FEUD
Town Officials Must Act With.
in the Next Thirty
Days.

Another chapter in the long legal bat
tie between the political factions of
Mount Rainier. Nd. was written last
night when Sheriff A. B. Suit served a
writ OF mandamus on Mayor Joseph T. X.
Plant and member Of the town council.
compelling them to hold special election
within thirty days for the purpose of se-
lecting a successor to Councilman T. G.
Elliott OF the fourth ward. The writ was
issued last Friday by the circuit court of
Prince Georges county, at Marlboro. but
the papers were not served until last
night.
The political factions of Mount Rainier
have been at odds since the election Of
Councilman Elliott in May, 1911. Becom-
ing dissatisfied with Elliott's administra-
ton on the ground that he did not have
the interests of the ward fully at heart.
voters of the fourth ward decided to
bring about his recall.
Voters Sign Petition.
They drew up a petition which was
signed by the majority Of the voters Of
the ward. although the town charter
states that only 25 per cent OF the voters
are required. The petition was presented
to the town council at a special meeting.
but Mayor Plant refused to recognize it.
declaring it should contain the names of
25 per cent of the voters Of the entire
town.
A petition for writ of mandamus was
accordingly filed with the circuit court
through Attorneys Charles B. Calvert and
Charles NJ. Mattingly. acting in behalf OF
Robert r. Joyce. leader Of the opposition.
The court upheld the rights of the peo-
pie of the fourth ward and issued an
order for a. special election. The cor
porati counsel filed notice Of an appeal
and ninety days were given in which to
perfect the appeal. The time expired

CALL MRS. CHASE INSANE

A charge of insanity has been formally
filed against Mrs. Edith Chase. wife of
Maj. Arthur Wallace Chase, l.. s. A..

Asylum Hospital several weeks ago.
shortly after she had complained of hav-

the amount of $1,000 after a ride in

Detectives who investigated the re-
port of the robbery said they were un-
able to find that Mrs Chase had recently
worn the valuable pearl necklace, and
today Inspector Boardman said he

suit of the severe nervousness of the

Letter From Dan G. Vaughn.

During the course of the debate Repre-
sentative Sims Of Tennessee brought up
| once more the subject Of the installation
of water meters In private houses in the
District and read for insertion in the
Record letter from Dan c. Vaughn of
1905 Jackson street northeast bearing on
| the subject
81 beg to assure you" says Mr.. Vaughn,
| in his letter to the Tennessee member,
that citizens of the District Of Column
| bia appreciate your protest against cur

householders. / note. however, that no
one on the floor of the House Tuesday
challenged the statement that water rate.
were lower here than elsewhere in the
country, although Mr.. Mann seems to
think that in Chicago the rates are some
what lower. A further statement wa.
made that the meter rates In the District
are $50 for $4,000 cubic feet. 1t should
have been added that the rate has recent
ly been raised to $3.50 for 1900 cubic feet
and this without giving the citizens al
opportunity to be heard in protest. al
though such hearing was promised Il
zens' Association months before the order
increasing the rate was entered By tho
District Commissioners.
I'm his connection ] deem II proper to
suggest that the so-called $50 rate is
deceptive for this reason: Taking my own
case as an example, when the water main
was placed in the street in front of my
home an assessment of 1925 was placed
against my AUDITING 100 feet of property.
The interest on this sum at g per cent,
the amount ] am required to pay on de-
ferred payments on my property, Is 81 10,
which, added to the $3.50 for service,
amounts to SO. Thus l am, in fact,
charged So per annum for my water the
amount of which ] may use for that sum
being also now curtailed one-half. Either
that or every property owner in the Dis
trict is an involuntary stakeholder in a
concern paying no dividends.
Il have brought this fact out because
no one on the floor of the House Tues
day seemed to appreciate the real condi-
tons here
Every one of your arguments against
curtailing the use of water is absolutely
sound. If healthful conditions in the
District arc desired, If lawns and gardens
inure to the beauty of our National Cap
| ital, if dust-ridden streets are to con-
| tribute 10 the comfort of our people, the
! liberal use of water should not only be
permitted, but encouraged In fact, there
are any number of progressive people
i everywhere who believe that pure water
| should be furnished by the municipality
or state as freely as street lights, or po-
/ lice protection

$3.50 MORE THAN REPORTED

The District Of Columbia appropriation
bill was passed by the House of Repre-
sentatives at. $40 yesterday afternoon.
Representative Burleson of Texas and his
colleagues on the appropriations commit
tee are mighty glad of It. Mr.. Burleson
had charge of the measure every minute
of the time 1t was under consideration
and for nearly two full legislative weeks
he acted as the official doormat for those
members of the House who have views on
the administration of the affairs Of the
District of Columbia.
When the District bill was called UP
yesterday afternoon it was not anticipat-
ed that it would take more than an hour
or SO to hear the decision of the presiding
officer on the several points of order tenn
porarily passed over when the measure
was being read for amendment. A hot
fight over the tuition provision applying
to nonresident pupils, the interest and
sinking fund item and the public schools
kept the local budget before the House
all day long.

Appropriation Knocked Out.
The point of order was sustained and
the pay appropriation went out.
'.It is true" said the chair. in an
nouncing the ruling to this effect, that
the item has been carried in the appro-
priation bill for a number of years. but
it is a well understood rule OIL the House
that an appropriation carried from year
to year does not make continuing law.
An amendment was then offered by Mr..
Burleson and adopted providing Tor pay
of officers enlisted men and bandsmeil
"as authorized by law. He admitted. IN
view of the elimination of the other pay
item. that this sum was too much, but as
he didn't have any exact information as
to the precise amount that would be
necessary, he fixed the figure as 1t had
appeared originally.
Special legislation will be necessary to
authorize the payment of the $4,000 &c
the troops.
Notion to Recommit Lost.
Mr.. Mann then made the following
motion to recommit:

1861 making appropriations to provide
for the expenses OF the government OF
the District OF Columbia for the fiscal
year ending June 90 1913, and for other
purposes, to the committee on appropria-
