the billing clerk, some of it was
withheld and the clerk so altered

CAPPER HOPE s
FORD, {. BILLS

Of IA District bills before the
Senate, five, including one to re-
lieve unemployment distress, have
a good chance of passage, Senator
Arthur Capper R0 of Kansas,
chairman of the Senate District
Committee, asserted today.
The relief bill, which would
authorize the District Commission
ers to borrow $2,50O,0OO from the
Reconstruction Finance Corpora
ton, will meet with some opposi-
ton, but will probably go through,
Senator Capper said.
The Senator expects that the
bill to regulate the bringing of &C
tions for damages against the Dis
trict will be approved, along with
bills providing for the protection
of holders of industrial insurance
policies in the District, the pay
ment of taxes and assessments on
family dwelling houses in quarterly
installmentS and the bill authoriz-
ing amateur boxing in the District.

COST Of WATER
PROBE BEGUN

Drastic changes in the present
method of levying District water
rates will be made during the
fiscal year 1885.
This was indicated by Federal
and District water engineers TO-
day when they admitted starting
an exhaustive investigation into
the present system of supplying
and selling municipal water.
According to members of the
House District Committees sub
committee strong doubt exists
in the minds of some that water
users should be required to bear
the burden of supplying the Dis
trict Fire Department, sire t
cleaning department, and charit-
able institutions with free water.
1t would be more just, they
felt, to place the expense of pro
viding free water to the District
on District taxpayers, taking it
from the general fund, as is done,
they pointed out, in most other
cities.

He submitted statistics to show

His figures showed that of the

To VOTE RAISE
IN LUMP SUM
$6,500,000 Inadequate, Says
Auditor Donovan; Warns
of $44O,934 Deficit

Warned by Auditor Daniel j
Donovan that the District will
have a deficit of $440,934 at the
close of the fiscal year, the Dis.
t~ict Subcommittee of the Senate
Appropriations Committee today
will make a careful study of the
fiscal relations between the Fed
eral and locals governments when
it marks up the 1884 appropria-
tions bill.
District officials yesterday ap-
pealed 10 the subcommittee head
ed by Senator Hiram Bingham
CR0 of Connecticut to increase
The Federal lump sum contribu-
ton which the House fixed at $6,-
100000 in the appropriations bill.
S6,5OO,OOO Inadequate
Major Donovan said the &c.
100000 contribution is grossly
inadequate. He also warned
against any increase in taxes
other than the proposed one-cent
increased gasoline levy. He de-
clared:
eff you increase the. taxes,
YOU will only add to the $8,-
OOO, 900 in unpaid taxes now on
the books. You are not going
to collect any more money be-
cause the money is not here to
pay"
Senator Bingham and Senator
Arthur Capper (RO of Kansas,
chairman of the Senate District
Committee, agreed with Donovan
that the only solution to the
problem was an increase in the
Federal lump sum.
Decline in Revenues
District revenues have rapidly
declined, while appropriations for
current expenses have been in
creasing in recent years, it was
pointed out.
Had it not been for the opera
ton of the Economy Act in 1888
there would have been a deficit
at the close of the year amount
ing to $2,5T5,934, according to
Donovan.
The subcommittee today will
begin marking up the bill and
probably insert items recommend
ed by the Budget Bureau and
omitted or reduced by the House.
The lump sum item will be
carefully studied and indications
are it will be increased over the
House figure of $6,500,000. The
contribution for the current year
is $7,775,000 and the subcommit-
tee probably will restore that
amount or more to the bill.
