TWO UTILITIES CREDITED
WITH AIDING VALUATION
District Commission Issues State.
ment Clarifying Language of
Recent Report.

In view of specific protests filed by How
ard S. Reside. president of the Washing
ton Gas Light Company, and by the
Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone Com
pany, relative to statements contained in
the report of the valuation bureau of the
public utilities commission. made public
last week, the commission today issued a
statement clarifying the language Of the
report and making it plain that the re-
port referred only to work of the valua-
ton bureau for the year ended December
81. 1914. In the statement proper credit
was given for cooperation on the part of
the two utilities mentioned. these corpora
tons, with others, having been said, in
the report of the valuation bureau, TO
have declined such cooperation.
The statement issued today follows:
The criticism of the lack of CO.
operation on the part of some of the.
utilities related to the work of the
year ended December 81, 1914. During
that period the valuations of the Capt.
tai traction Company, the Washington
Hallway and Electric Company and the
Potomac Electric Power Company only
had been undertaken: A certain amount
OF preliminary investigation of some of
the other utilities had been commenced
but no important work had been done.
Since December 81, 1914, the COM
mission has undertaken the valuation
of the Washington Gas Light Company
the Georgetown Gas Light Company
phone Company. These companies are
cooperating with the comm ssion in
its work and are furnishing informa-
ton willingly on request.

Zeppelin Climbs Swiftly.

Unlike the gas ship, which can ascend
swiftly at will, the aeroplane has to
circle up slowly and laboriously. The
dark with clouds to pass through. After
the necessary altitude is reached he
has to speculate, perhaps vaguely, as
to his position and then settle on his
course. If he is sailing over country
occupied by the Germans he has to
dodge searchlights which are touch
ing up the clouds. Once caught, the
shrapnel from the anti-aircraft guns
begins to burst. The scout then has
to dive. circle, reverse and dodge about
until he gets out of range and safe into
the dark again. 1t requires all the
nerve the airman possesses to keep
himself under control while the shells
searchlights play on the clouds.
Safe into the dark, the hunter watches
for his first clue-a Zeppelin signal
from below in the form of fire flashes.
This seen, he shapes his course for it.
Moon Helps the Hunter.
If the moon is due to come up at
this time the work is simplified, for
the form Of the Zeppelin may be easily
seen II within range. If unaware Of
the impending attack the enemy's
course is regular. with the long sau-
sagelike form running on a level.
The problem is now to keep clear Of
the Zeppelin's ears. The Zeppelin's en-
gines can be slowed down so that the
louder buzz of the aeroplane may be
overheard.
If the Zeppelin detects the noise of the
attacker he flashes lights that illum-
mate all of the surrounding clouds
Once he sees the object of his search
his machine guns begin to play.
There is case recounted by an avi-
ator where his pausing aeroplane took
refuge in a cloud and then passed over
and dropped bombs along what he
thought was the Zeppelin's probable
course, which he based on the sound of
the enemy's machine guns. At the
same time the Zeppelin was firing into
the cloud in the hope of getting in a
chance shot at the pursuer. Each lost
the other in the clouds, and the Brit
Usher returned to his base without
knowing whether or not he had dam
aged the enemy. The Zeppelin prob
ably did the same thing.

The police of Providence furnished
Maj Pullman a list of property taken
from the prisoner. 1t includes many
articles of jewelry The value of the
property was not given in the letter,

Announcement of the appointment of

Commissioner Newman reiterated that
under the plan for the reorganization
of the Fairgrounds and bathing beach
the two are to he combined. with the
supervisor of Fairgrounds in charge,
but with a superintendent of the bath-
ing beach. who is to be subordinate to
the supervisor of Fairgrounds.
Candidates for Appointment.
The list of candidates for the position
of supervisor of Fairgrounds. which
pays $4,000 per annum. contains about
twenty names. Among the prominent
candidates are Andrew ]. ("Cy') Cum
mings of Montgomery county, Md, for
several terms a member of the Mary

Jesse c. Suter, friends of whom have
been active in efforts to land the ap-
pontment
1t is limited. however. that none OF
the avowed candidates is to be select
ed, and that the appointment prop
ably will go to some one not actlveiy
in the field. 1t is considered by no
means unlikely that Mr.. Donovan, VINO
has been in charge of playground and

pension of Mr. Martin and DR.. w. 3.

no intimation to this effect has ema-
