Mr.. Rast was here yesterday at the

the work carefully. He is we'll salts
ed with the results that are being
obtained so early in the season. The
plats are now planted in peas, corn
and cotton, which will form the basis

There are three acres included in
he plats, with twenty plats to the
acre. From this it may be seen that

ABOUT four rows of the average crop,
an extra wide row marking the line

ASK REGULATION,
NOT OWNERSHIP
District Heads Favor Public Utili-
\ ties Commission for Gas
Legislation.

Expressing the opinion that the crea-
ton Of public utilities commission Is
the proper means of obtaining cheaper
gas, the District Commissioners yester-
day afternoon submitted to Congress un-
favorable reports on the two bills, in
troduced by Representative RothermeI.
Of Pennsylvania, providing for Federal
ownership OF the Washington Gaslight
Company and the Georgetown Gasfight
Company.
In their report the Commissioners sug-
gest 1t might be cheaper to condemn
the property OF the companies after the
values OF the franchises have been de-
termined by a public utilities commission
than for Congress 10 authorize the Sec
retary OF Commerce and Labor 10 acquire
the property at once, as provided for in
the two bills.
There are pending before the House
and before the Senate bills for the con-
troll OF public utilities within the Dis
trict Of Columbia reads the report.
1T is hoped and anticipated that Con-
gress will enact a pSblic utilities law at
this session. AS a result OF such enact
ment the public utilities commission
would be in a position to determine the
fair value OF the property OF the Wash
ington Gaslight Company employed for
the convenience Of the public, and pre-
sumably would be able to fix a rate
which would allow the company a rea-
sonable return thereon"

RULE is ISSUED
ON MRS. HUTCHINS
Celebrated Legal Tangle Is Now
Rapidly Approaching a
Crisis in Court.

Chief Justice Clabaugh yesterday issued
rule on Mrs. Rose Keeling Hu.chins,
at the instance OF Nathaniel Wilson.
to show cause on February 16 why the
court should not issue an order author
izing the guardian to give public notice
that Mr.. Hutchins and his estate and
trustee will not be responsible or liable
for any debts contracted by Mrs. Hutch
ins for Mr.. Hutchins or the household
Of Mrs. Hutchins.
Petitioner also asks the court to re-
quire Airs. Hutchins to make a report to
the court at once and submit an account
showing the use and manner Of disburse-
ment OF the moneys paid to her by Will
lam ]. Dante, the trustee of her hus-
bands estate, and to whom the money
has been paid. and what bills have been
incurred by her and are now outstanding
and subsisting since October last.
Attorney Nathaniel Wilson, guardian
for Mr.. Hutchins, alleges that new debts
have been incurred by Mrs. Hutchins
since the order OF the court Of october
deciding on the debts to be paid by the
estate Of her husband. Petitioner further
asks the court to define and restrict
within proper limits the obligations and
Indebtedness and the kind OF obligations
that Mrs. Hutchins may incur and make
chargeable to Mr.. Hutchins or to his
estate.
1t is claimed by Mr.. Wilson that imme-
date action by the court appears TO be
required 20 protect Mr.. Hutchins and his
estate from the accumulation of debts
that may be of serious consequences and
embarrassing and injurious to his estate" {"
