duct Near Station.

Judgement for SlOE5I22. was obtained
by the District Yesterday in Circuit
Court No /. against the Washington
Terminal Company. in a suit brought to
compel the company to pay the cost of
lighting streets and viaducts adjacent
to Union Station This amount rep
resents the lighting charge for twenty
seven months from September ], 1909 TO
November. 1911 The verdict also re-
quires the company TO pay six per cent
interest on each of the monthly bills.
The District commended that Congress,
had directed the Terminal Company To-
bear all cost OF lighting the thorough
fares in and around the station. while
the defense of the Terminal Company
was that it was only liable for It own
lights and that street lighting was a
municipal matter.
