DepOsed Assistant Assessor Files Man.
damus Action in Effort to
Regain Office.
ATTACKS NEwMARS ELIGIBILITY

Supplementary to the recent writ Of
certiorari asking the District Supreme
Court to review the action Of the District
Commissioners in dismissing Samuel T.
Kalbfus from the otice of assistant as
SCISSOR, the deposed official through his
attorney, Frank ]. Hogan, yesterday in
stituted mandamus proceedings for his
restoration to office.
Tie Commissioners were cited by the
court to appear on September 10 to show
cause why Kalbfus should not be REIN
stated. In the mandamus writ as well as
in the writ of certiorari the eligibility
OF Oliver p. Newman as District Com
missioner is questioned. The writ filed
yesterday states that the action Of the
Commissioners was in violation of the
provisions of the fifth article of the Con-
stitution, which declares that no official
shall be deprived of his office without due
process of law.
The introduction of this point will make
United States Supreme Court IL neces-
sary. Mr.. Kalbfus maintains that the
Commissioners have no authority to oust
an assistant assessor without first prov
ing conclusively ineficiency, neglect of
duty, or malfeasance in office.
The writ states that Mr.. Kalbfus upon
learning of the appointment of Mr..
Oyster as his successor, wrote to Asses
sor Richards, announcing that he was
ready to continue his regular duties. No
reply was received. Mr.. Kalbfus says he
did not call at the office, as he knew
detectives had been guarding the Kalb-
fus-Oyster desk, and he did not wish 20
engage in any breach of the public peace.

NEW TABLETS IN MONUMENT.
Colorado and Washington Add
Names 10 List of states.

Colorado and Washington have added
their names to the list of States which
have contributed stone tablets to the
Washington Monument as tributes to the
memory of the first President OF the
United States. When these two stones
are placed in position, all but five States
in the Union will be represented in the
walls.
Colorado made application some time
ago for permission to place a stone from
that State in the monument, as did Wash
ington. Both stones are now in the pro-
cess OF preparation. The Washington
Monument Society is working to have
the States that are not yet represented
by tablets within the Monument to send
their stones. The five States which are
not represented are Idaho. Oklahoma,
Texas, Arizona, and New Mexico. It is
thought they will fall into line before
long.
