Gas Suits.

There was more or less talk on the
street Thursday anent the suits in the
Washington VS.. Georgetown gas cases.
The general impression was that the
Georgetown bill was a decidedly strong
document, but that the merits of the case
would have to be adjudicated by the
courts after two or three years of de-
csion and appeal.
Any discussion of the merits or de-
merits of the case wouI be useless, as
legal lights differ and the supreme Court
alone will settle the matter.
The $3.50 shares of Georgetown Gas
stock. held legally or illegally by the
Washington company, cost an average
Of $40 a share, and the corporation prob
ably will retain this equity.
The Washington Gas Light Company
will put forth every effort 10 win. and
its legal force will he helped by the adj
dition Of the best talent of the trustee
Of the Washington Gas bonds. the Amer
lean Security and Trust Company.
IL is just possible some shareholders
of the Washington company may find
fault at the forthcoming annual meeting
at the failure of the Washington COM
pany TO take the aggressive IN this
matter.
The annual meeting OF the washington
Gas Light Company is scheduled for next
Tuesday, when the directors are to be
elected, and these in turn will elect the
officials. Proxies may be recalled by
the presence IN person OF the share
holders.

terest in the affairs of their company TO

ton should commence clipping at the

TREE COMMITTEE MEETS.
Civic League Takes Action To Protect
City's Trees.

There was an earnest and enthusi-
astic meeting of the "Tree Commit
tee" OF the Civic League yesterday
at the home of the chairman. Mrs.
EnIalls Waggaman. The question of
giving greater prott etion to the trees
was taken up and discussed freely
ar fully.
The practice of hitching horses to
trees about town was deplored. 1t
was stated that while there is no
special city ordinance prohibiting
same, yet there is an ordinance which
says "Any person or persons who
shall wiltully hurt, break, injure OF
destroy trees" shall be punished for
same. Certainly hitehing horses to
trees destroys them. 1t was stated at
the meeting that eight trees out of
ten on King George street had been
killed in this way, several on College
avenue and one on Church Circle.
The question of the right of the
Public Utilities Company annapolis
Gas and Electric Light Company
having been p srmitted to cut aad trim
trees for wiring, was discussed, and it
seems a special ordinance was passed
las I August allowing for this.
The Tree Committee discussed a
proposed amendment TO the law per-
mitting the Chesapeake and Potomac
Telephone Company to run wires
through tree tops, thereby Destroy
ing many Of the city's beautiful
trees.
The city has been divided into
districts with so many streets in each
district and ladies given the charge
of these sections to care for and lock
after trees therein. Reports are to
be made by the ladies and submitted
before December 10 to the acting
chairman of the Tree Cmmittee, Mrs.
Z. VI. Danforth.

Because Of the absence of the prin-

plainant, the hearing Of Police Con-
stable S. G. Garner, OF Eastpoft, on
charges preferred by Mr.. Walter II
Hart, who lives near Eastport, which
was scheduled d 20 take plsee before
the County Commissioners at the
Court House this morning, was aban-
doned aud in fact, the charges We're
later dismissed upon a motion made
before the Board
Constable Garner was at the Court
House, ready 10 answer Il the
charges. and there was also large
delegation Of male citizens of the
village TO testify in his behalf Nh.
Hart addressing the Board, suggested
the. fdtility Of proceeding with the
hearing, on account Of the absence of
witnesses, Upon whose Information
his charges against the Officer were
based. These witnesses, he said.
were now in Dallas, TeXas.
Mr.. Hart thereup0n asked that the
case be continued until such future
time Later, however. the charges
were dismisstd d by order lf the Board.
The charges preferred against Mr..
Garner were of inattention 10 duty.
inefiieiency, etc. Five specific in
stances were set out in support Of the
charges.
Another element that entered into
the action Of the Commissioners in
dismissing the charges was the fact
that the new Board Of Commissioners
will 90 into office next week, and il
is their desire TO clear up all business
matters now before thtm Mr.. Hart,
it is understood, will press the

PHYSICAL DRILL PLEASES.
Swedish Gymnasts Delighted Large
Audience al Naval Academy Yes
terday Afternoon.

With the beautiful banner of Swe-
den, the light blue ground with the
yellow cross at their head, twenty-six
1.-THE and clean-built young athletes
of the Stockholm Gymnastic Society
marched on to the floor Of the Naval
Academy gymnasium yesterday att
ernoon and gave an exhibition of
Swedish gymnastics, with and with
out apparatus, which lasted an hour
and which delighted the large audi.
ence during every minute.
These fine young Swedish men are
in the middle of tour of this coan-
try which is to last two months.
Special interest attached to their
visit to the Naval Academy, because
Swedish gymnastics is now the off,
cisl system of physical training in
the United States Navy.
Fer several years all midshipmen
have been instructed in it, and ii is
being rapidly extended to the train
ing stations and ships of the navy.
Among those who saw the exhibition
were the thirty enlisted mer and war
rant officers who are undergoing in.
struetion here that they may direct
this work throughout the navy.
The visitors, under command Of
Lieut.. Oswald Holmberg, and with
the flag of Sweden at their head,
marched into the main gymnasium in
double file. Their fine bearing, beau.
tifully developed bodies and snappy
movements secured the interest OF
those present at once.
