INSTALL SANITARY FOUNTAINS.

Sanitary drinking fountains were in
stalled in the District Building yesterday.
They have been installed in all the pub

to obtain legislation from Congress pro-
hibiting the use Of the public drinking
cup throughout the District.
The District officials have sent to Con-
gress q draft Of such a bill. authorize
ing them to make rules and regulations
necessary to effect the abolishment OF
the common drinking cup. The measure
provides that a fine of IS be inflicted
upon any person. firm. or corporation

There is little chance that the bill will
be acted upon at this session OF Con-
gress, but in the meantime sanitary

GOOD HUNTING PROMISED.
Marshes Attract Flocks OF Reed and
Blackbfrds.

Marshes near the city are covered with
a heavy growth Of grain-bearing grasses,
and there is every prospect that the good
forage will attract large nocks Of reed
birds and blackbirds by September 1.
when the game season opens. Several
large focks OF birds have already made
their appearance on the marshes OF the
Eastern Branch. while those along the
Potomac. near jackson City. at -Four
Mile Run. and at Shepherds Landing
probably will also afford good shooting.
The harbor police have been patroline
the hunting grounds of the District for
more than a week to prevent shooting
before the season opens. Not gun has
been fred and the birds are quite tame.

Seven aeroplanes VIII be used at the

not yet accepted by the government.
among them one a weight-carrying ma

Ing Of several young aviators. Officials OF
the corps feel that the passage of a
pending bill. providing for extra pay for
ofncers detailed to the flying squad, will
aid greatly in getting recruits for the
work. Members Of the squad have been
told that owing to the extra hazard OF
their calling, their insurance must be can
celled, and the greater compensation
would enable them to make provision for
their families In case Of accidents.

WILL TURN DOWN
TAFT SUGGESTION
Plan to Throw Treaty Interpreta-
ton Into Court Unpopular
in Congress.
BILL WILL BE slasE

President Taft sent to Congress yes
terday afternoon a special message on
the Panama Canal bill. He urges the
passage by Congress Of joint resoiu-
tion which will make II apparent before
the world that the United States has no
Intention Of violating the Hay-Paunce-
fote treaty. This resolution. in the Pres
iden.'s opinion, should take the form OF
a declaration that the present legisla-
tion will not supercede any treaty rights
conferred by the Hay-Pauncefote con-
vention. The President would leave II
to the United States Supreme Court to
construe the treaty and determine
whether or not the granting of free tolls
to American ships in the coastwise trade
constituted n violation Of II. President
Taft himself holds that the legislation
In its present form does not violate the
treaty, but inasmuch as there is dif-
ference OF opinion he believes that the
United States should avoid even an ap-
parent Justification for criticism.
The free tolls provision Is the only OBJ
lection that the President cites to the
bill. as II has been laid before him.
House Leaders Hostile.
The Democratic leaders Of the House
will refuse to support resolution such
as the President suggests, and his efort
along this line will undoubtedly fail. The
House leaders contend that II the Panama
bill violates the treaty. Mr.. Taft should
veto IL, and IL II doesn't he should sign II.
They say that the resolution that he pro-
poses would invite q large amount Of hti-
cation and would weaken the contention
Of Congress that the United States has
the right under the treaty to grant free
tolls. There is considerable opposition to
the Presidents proposal also in the SEN
ate.
What the President will do when Con-
gress turns down his joint resolution sug-
gestion has not been definitely settled.
Many believe that having put himself on
record in the message to CONGRESS, he
will sign the bill because he believes the
fixing Of the tolls and the provision for
legal machinery for the operation and
government Of the canal are imperative.
On the other hand. many of the Presi-
dents friends and advisers are urging
him to veto the bill.

Following the IA important I'M
provements" of 1912, the Hendee Mfg
Company announce no less than a
dozen additional new features in their
1913 model of the Indian Motorcycle.
BY far the most significant feature
of the new machine is the Cradle
Spring Frame. 1t is something entire
ly new, a radical departure from the
conventional bicycle and recent motor
cycle systems of "springing. Briefly,
the new device consists of the appli
cation to the rear wheel of the Indian
Cradle Spring device as used on the
front fork for the past three years.
Extending back horizontally from
the frame joint cluster under the sad
die, flanking the rear mud guard, are
two 7-leaf Chrome Vanadium steel
springs. The &c" shaped curls at the
rear end of these springs are connect
ed by stays to bell-cranks on which
the rear axle is hung. The forward
end of the rear fork has a hinge joint
which enables the rear wheel to yield
to imperfections Of road surface. All
shocks are completely absorbed by
the leaf springs. The rear wheel can
go through almost any vertical mo-
ton without affecting the body Of the

this spring device. The life of the
machine is greatly increased.
The Engineering Department of the
Hendee Mfg. Co. devoted Is months OF
exhaustive test to the Cradle Spring
Frame before finally deciding on Its
adoption for all models of the 1911;
Indian.
In addition to the Cradle Spring
Frame, the 1913 Indian embodies 1G
other important Improvements which
will be appreciated by motorcycle
riders in general. Prices remain the
same as last year.
New style, single clinch rims; larger
tires, wider mud guards front and real
