INDEPENDENT CABS
PROTEST F ST. BAN
Tell Commissioners Proposed
New Regulation Is Dis
criminatory.

The adoption Of the proposed plan
to better traffic conditions on r street
by prohibiting taxicabs from driving
up and down that thoroughfare in
search of passengers would be discrim-
inatory and amount to persecution
Of independent cab operators, letter
addressed to the Board Of Commission
ers by the Independent Taxi Owners
Association, Inc, states.
ization protested to the Commissioners
against the alleged practice Of drivers
Of so-calied livery cabs Of parking at
other places than their assigned
stands and picking up flares" anywhere
throughout the city, thus "deprivtng
legitimate hackers Of business"
The banning Of Cruising" taxis on
r street would not initiate against
livery cabs, it was pointed out.
This new regulation would only sue
coed in keeping independent cab oper-
ators of of F. street, as the other taxi
companies operate 325 livery lie 80
cabs, who would have the privilege of
freely using the restricted zone and
utilizing the much-need parking spaces
on this street, and they would also
install telephone call boxes on this
street to facilitate their call business
wheresoever they pleased" the letter
asserts.
The communication concludes by
threatening, II the municipal authori-
ties do not give the independent owners
fair and impartial treatment" to es-
tablish q livery business similar to the
other taxicab companies In Washing
ton, land then the District would be
powerless to enforce the contemplated
unreasonable regulation like they have
been in the past, with reference to the
livery license cabs, and If we placed
200 livery cabs In operation, the MEM
bers would park and cruise on r street
could be installed on this street"
A protest was also made against the
higher license fee the taxicab owners
have to pay than the livery license
cabs.

with this mass of evidence, says DIR.
Prince, it, Is hardly necessary to clinch
the argument with the fact that the
Sir William Hope who wrote Hope on
Dueling" had been dead eight years IN
1882 and must have possessed super
natural powers indeed II ne reany
penned these lines. There were two Sir
william Hopes in the reign OF queen
Anne. he says, and the forger Of the
prophecy evidently got them mixed up.
"The Hope forgery or hoax" says DR..
Prince, "just touches the fringe OF the
illegitimate or naughty, since Sir Will
liam Hope was O real person OF some
importance, one Of the most accom-
plished swordsmen Of his time, public
official and q baronet, and 1t was not
exactly cricket to have made him out
to have been an astrologer and q seer.
It might have made him feel decidedly
foolish"
DR.. Prince believes that the hoaxer
picked up an old book At random and
was convinced by o casual investigation
that the author was completely forgot
ten, so that nobody could check UP.
But for any one who knows where to
look there Is o great deal Of, material
on this old baronet who died in his
sixty-fourth year Of fever caused by
overheating himself In dancing"
He believes that the hoax may have
been perpetrated at frst as prankish
joke and that II the author were now
alive 1t would be squelched.
II suspect" he says. that Miss john
son wrote the inscription herself to see
II the credulous would bite or that
some one familiar with her tastes wrote
Ia not conclusive. but the parallels are
so many in relation to her that feel
confident that It was she or some one
who knew her.
