ARMY CONDITIONS
ARE HELD TO Be BAD
Difference Between Situation
Here and in New York
Is Cited.

The Introduction Of the Gallinger bill
in the Senate yesterday providing for
one-million- seven hundred and fifty
thousand-dollar armory for the Ma
tional Guard OF the District Of Column
bia calls attention to the lack OF arm
DRY facilities in the District compared
with other cities. the armory buildings
in the District being discreditable.
New York has demonstrated the DIFF
ference between a wise and liberal
policy and the penny wise pound fool
ish" policy adopted in some places
She has treated her militia seriously,
going on the idea that what IL worth
doing is worth doing right Long ago
she decided that her soldiers should be
quartered in buildings owned by the
state and not rented from individuals
or corporations. She built armories
with view to future growth, and the
result of this wisdom is shown in the
fine organizations Of citizen soldiery
Here are few of the figures in the
New York reports: Cost of 7th Regiment
Armory. about $4,000; 8th Regiment.
about 100000; list Regiment, $817. 300 and
the site, H45,a29. a total Of $. O6S, 12o;
seth Regiment. 500. 2ss, and the site. $780,
600, total Of 1885. 2oe; 18th Regiment.
Buffalo. $4,000, exclusive Of land and
furnishings.
During the ten years 18e7-1906 the leg
islature of New York appropriated $2,631,-
81 for armories, and this does not take
into account amounts expended on
armories in the city Of New York which,
under special statute. are provided by
the counties.
1t is estimated that these armorfes,
with the ground they stand on represent
an investment Of from $11, Co., 600 to $12,-
600, OOO
Armories Elsewhere.
New York is not the only state which
has followed the plan. Of providing its
own buildings. in preference to renting
quarters. Many fine armories exist In
other states. The armory at Providence,
R. L.. for its regiment OF infantry and
battery of artillery cost $4ss. o00 while the
ground cost $50, 600.
In Baltimore. the cost of the 9Th Reg1-
ment armory was $3.50, 200, while the
ground cost $125,OO0.
In contrast are the inadequate .condi-
tons noticeably prevailing in South Caro-
lima. Tennessee. Kansas. West virginia.
Oklahoma and Missouri. Confessional
reports showed that the money expended
in these states for the rental OF build
ings for armories has proved unsatisfac-
tory, making the question OF arm0ries
vexatious one and a source Of worry
to not only company commanders but to
the state.
So far. New York has outstripped other
states In provisions for the militia, and
each new armory is equipped with all
the modern conveniences and necessities.
The state has always pursued a liberal
policy in its attitude toward the organized
militia. The armories contain equipment
for gymnastic and athletic games and
have the necessary conveniences for a
club.

CLAIM LAW IS VIOLATED
Injunction Is Asked Against
Builder of Lamont Street
Houses.

Another alleged violation Of the build
ing line restriction which obtains in the
Columbia Heights subdivision has been
called to the attention of the District Su-
preme Court in an application for an in
junction to restrain Lewis e. Breuninger
from constructing and maintaining GER
tain buildings and porches at 18th and
Lamont streets, which, it is claimed, en-
croach on the thirty feet restricted by
John Sherman, who laid out the subdi-
vision. This restriction has been the sub
ject of much controversy between the
residents Of the vicinity and builders who
desired to make use of all available space
In their operations. The PLAINTIFF in this
case is Walter L. Tenney Of 1923 Lamont
street
Restriction Was Imposed.
Through Attorney B. E. Hinton the
court is told that Senator Sherman. in
laying out the subdivision. provided that
buildings should be set back thirty feet
from the street line, and imposed this re-
striction on every purchaser of land in
the subdivision. making the covenant run
with the land Mr.. Breuninger's new
buildings do not conform, it is claimed
to this restriction. The house at 18th
and Lamont streets is said to extend six
feet over the dead" line, and the porches
being constructed on Lamont street are
eight feet beyond the line.
Mr.. Tenney says the action of the build
er Is direct violation Of the covenant in
the deeds to the property. and asks the
court to require Mr.. Breuninger to re-
move such portions of the buildings as
extend beyond the restricted" line.

Rissler, who was standing ON the street,
attempted to stop the horse and was
knocked down and very severely injur-
ed, the horse falling too. Mr.. Rissler
was taken into the Farmers and Mer-
chants Bank and his injuries attended
