PRISONS ARE CROWDED.
Federal Government Finds Problem
on It's Hands.

So full are the Federal prisons at
LeavenwOrth and Atlanta that the De-
partment of Justice cannot send any
District prisoners to them, and as a
consequence fifty prisoners under SEN
tence for various crimes are being de-
tanned in the local jail. This condition
of affairs has seriously embarrassed the
warden as to space, and as there is little
likelihood of relief in the near future il
is probable that additional quarters will
have to De secured to accommodate any
increase in the jail's population.
Applications have been made by Off
cials OF the Department of Justice to
prison officials in a number of States for
space in their prisons. and it is probable
that some such arrangement can be
made. II Is not known at the present
time where the prisoners are likely to
be sent. The congested condition OF its
jails is not a novel condition for the
District to find itself in. In the past
such CONCESSION has been relieved by
sending prisoners to the State prisons OF
New York. New Jersey. Ohio, West Vir-
ginia, and Arkansas.

BENNING ROAD WIDENING.

The discussion which has arisen over
the bill for tine widening of BenninG
Road from Fifteenth Street 10 Oklahoma
Avenue Northeast was renewed at a
hearing before the subcommittee of the
Senate District Committee yesterday. but
there was talk of n satisfactory compro-
mise The House has already acted Ia
vorably on the measure. but action In the
Senate has been delayed by opposition
from several sources. The hearing was
presided over by Senator Curtis.
Opposition by the Washington Railway
to moving its tracks to the center of the
widened street was voiced by Clarence +.
King. president of the company. He sug-
gested that by making the new width of
the street 100 feet instead Of 10 the
tracks as they lie would be in the center
of the new roadway.
Thomas P. LittlepaCe. or behalf of the
Washington, Baltimore and Annapolis,
offered an amendment providing for the
purchase by the government at a cost of
s112. 900 OF the company's property at Fiji
teenth and II Streets Northeast. He said
that widening the road in the proposed
way would make the property in Ques-
tion practically useless to the company.

RUDOLPH Fights
DELEGATE Plan
Commissioner Sends Commu-

tee Giving Opinions.
SUGGESTIONS ARE MADE
Result of Present Government in the
District Has Been Strikingly
Effective"

| Effectiveness of the present system oi
government of the District is the Key
note of a statement OF the opinions oil
Cuno III. Rudolph, president Of the Board
of Commissioners of the District, sub
mitted yesterday to Representative Bur
Lesson of Texas, chairman of the. subcom-
mittee of the Appropriations Committee
having charge of appropriations for the
District. Mr. Rudolph's statement con-
tains a previous assertion that the Dis
trict does not need a delegate in Con-
gress.
Several changes in administrative func-
tions are recommended, but municipal
government, without participation in its
administration by the people governed,
has had in the District. Mr.. Rudolph
states, result 80 strikingly effective
that the essence of the system, namely,
government by a Board of Commission
ers. has been adopted with varied modi-
fiCations in a large number OF other
municipalities in the United States. The
peculiar fact in connection with the
adoption of this form of civic govern
ment is that il was not the realization
OF an antecedent theory. but was origi-
naIly adopted as a sort of trusteeship
to administer the affairs of a preceding
form of government which was abol-
ished because of its failure to meet the
complex conditions which the dual inter
ests of the United States and of private
property at the National Capital in
volved.
Wisdom of Congress.
Congress learned to its cost that the
exclusive legislation over the seat OF
government which the Constitution i'm
posed upon it could not judiciously be
deputized to the residents of the District
as such or TO an organization composed
in part of the representatives OF such
residents and representatives OF the
United States appointed by the Presi-
dent.
succeeding years of administration
under the present form of municipal gov
ernment in the District of Columbia have
demonstrated the wisdom of Congress in
vesting that government exclusively in
the management of officers of the United
States"
Other sections of the statement are:
In addition to the enactment Of i'm
portant insurance legislation by the acts
OF August Is. 1911, August ls 1911. and
January Il. 1872. there are pending in
Congress three other needful insurance
measures which il is hoped will be en-
acted in the near future. namely, resi-
dent agent Law, a law covering the en-
bezzlemcnt of funds and the twisting
of business by insurance agents. and
law governing the Incorporation Of insur-
anCe companies. which proposes that no
part of the funds received from the sub
scription to capital stock and surplus
shall be used for promotion purposes.
The public school affairs should be
controlled by director Of education ap-
pointed by the Commissioners. with a

UNLESS EXTRA SESSION CALLED
BY Governor Ferris Before the Close of the
Present Year.

1t has been discovered that by the
legislatures failure to reapporton the
senatorial districts it will be impos-
sible to make another change until
1923 unless Gov. Ferris should as
semble the solons in extraordinary
session before the close OF the pres
ent year,
The new constitution adopted in
1907 provided that there should be a
re-apportionment Of the representa-
tive, senatorial and congressional dis
tricts in 1913 and every ten years
thereafter The present legislature
remoulded the congressional and rep
resentative districts, but the bill
changing the senatorial districts died
in the apportionment committee of
the house.
Under the new order of things
Wayne county is entitled to at least
two additional representatives in the
upper house of the legislature, but in
all probability there will be no change
in the senatorial districts of Michi-
gan Tor at least ten years more.

GOVERNOR MAY VETO BILL.
Attorney General Raises Question
AS to It's Constitutionality.

That not all the bills coming to
Gov. Ferris for his signature will be
approved is becoming apparent as he
secures opportunity to examine their
provisions. Among those which may
be classed in the doubtful list is the
bill reapportioning the representative
districts of the state. There is a de-
cided question as to whether the bill
is constitutional
Attorney General Fellows does not
consider the apportionment good in
view of the constitutional provisions
governing, and it is on this ground
that it is doubtful if the governor
extends his approval. The constitu-
ton says the apportionment shall be
made in 1913 and every ten years
thereafter which will give the law
yers chance to discuss other angles
to the matter if the governor vetoes

produce a much more beautiful effect
than one or two each OF many dif-

be made a very pretty feature. Or

the flowers is in front of the bound

background which will greatly en-
hance the beauty of their blossoms.

school board in electing Foster Fra
ker, the present athletic instructor in
the high school, as principal for next
year The older boys are taking
much more interest in athletics this

CHAU IT AUQUA DATE.
BIG EVENT SCHEDULED TO
OPEN HERE ABOUT AUG. 5.
Activities Begin in Both Chicago and
Goshen in Connection with Great
Chain of Chautauquas.

The opening date of the forthcom-

about August 5.
All is activity just now at the head
quarters of the Redpath Chautauquas
in Chicago in preparation for the
Chautauqua which is 10 be held here
and at many other points on the
great Chautauqua chain of 1913
The large and highly illustrated
programs are now being printed by
the hundreds of thousands. When
opened, the inside of this program
shows two great pillars supporting an
arch about a stage. The great pro-
gram with its band of thirty pieces,
its Ben Greet Players and many other
attractions, is then pictured within
the frame.
AT one of Chicago's largest litho-
graphing plants immense bill board
posters are being made showing a
typical Chautauqua tent and the
crowds and autos about the grounds.
These posters will be in several col
ors and altogether most attractive
and most inspiring.
Chautauqua blotters are being
printed in great quantities for dis
tribution among school children and
thousands of yards of canvas are
going into banners to hang across
streets and others for awnings.
There is busy hum of typewriters
all over the sixth floor of the Cable
Building, Chicago, turning out adver-
tising matter, corresponding with To-
cal committees and advance men, and
the Chautauqua spirit is beginning to
be abroad in the land for another big
and successful season.
The winter quarters of all the
equipment of the Redpath Chautau-
quas, such as the big tents, seats, etc,
is at Goshen, Ind.
On Saturday, April 10, the work of
unpacking this vast amount of can
'vas and other equipment was begun.
