from his high place aboard. the Po-
lice Departments new towing crane,
which has been cruising around town
for three days seeking illegally parked

was standing on the curb and saw the
enactment Of the little drama. He
took q part. Leaping to the side Of
the car he tackled the wouid-be hold
up man around the neck and dragged
him from the car. When he had him
down on the street Sergt. Harrington
arrived in time to wrest q toy pistol
from the bandits hand.

The light flashed from green, to
yellow, to red, and automobiles, trucks
and taxicahs came to a standstill on
e street at Seventh yesterday while
the Seventh street traffic cleared the
intersection. =
Charles Tappy, an advertising sales
man, was on the front row, next to
the curb. He changed gears, to be
ready to, dart across and on his way
when the light should turn green
again. Then he threw the gears back
into neutral, all interest in red and
green lights gone.
Tappy never had felt the cold mug.
zle of gun in his ribs before, but he
had no trouble identifying it when q
desperate looking man opened the
right-hand door and pressed some
thing against his ribs. Tappy care
fully kept his hands idle, but looked
around. @
What could be nicer In q case like
this than blue uniform, worn by q
husky policeman? And there It was,
almost within reach OF bis hand, worn
by Sergt, Joseph Harrington.
''1,m being held up" Tappy shouted
above the roar of the motors waiting
for the green light.

SUBWAY SURVEY
FUNDS ARE ASKED.
Chairman Norton Presents
Bill Seeking Way Out
of Traffic Jams. -.

Chairman Norton of the House Dis
trict Committee today made her first
definite move for construction Of sub
ways to relieve rush-hour traffic con-
gestion by introducing a bill to appro-
pirate $25,000 for comprehensive
survey of the proposal.
Drafted by william A. Roberts,
peoples counsel before the Public Util-
tiles Commission, the measure au-
thorizes the Commissioners to make
the study. It would embrace the ap-
propriate location, size and design of
subway system, estimates as to cost
and time Of construction and recon-
mendations as to the feasibility of the
construction of such a system by pri-
vate and governmental agencies.
The bill directs the Commissioners
to file report to Congress not later
than January /. 1887, together with
detailed estimates and preliminary
plans.
The $25, 1000 appropriation author
lied would be charged equally against
the Federal and District Governments
Provision also is made that annual
appropriations can be made as. re-
quested by the Commissioners to con-
tinue the study. '.<,
'I have. really taken up this subway
proposal in the most serious way" said
Mrs. Norton '"The solution to the
Districts traffic snarl lies in under
ground channels, either trains or mo-
tor vehicle tunnels, or both"
Roberts pointed out that after
nearly is years Of study of the trans
portation and utility problems Of the
District, he had reached definite
conviction that subway system is
the only practical relief from trafic
congestion and the scores of deaths
which are its result.
Not q single one, of, the experts
who have studied this problem" he
said, has found against the subway
system. It Is true that some have
suggested that construction be delayed,
but they have been Influenced solely
by financial conditions and the fear
that the street railway companies
might have to bear the cost"

AIRPORT THIS YEAR
HELD KILLED BY BILL
Making District Pay for One to
Be Chosen by Federal Person
mel Called Unfair.

When the House yesterday after
noon voted to saddle upon the District
Of Columbia the entire financial bur-
den Of an airport to be selected by a
commission composed chiefly of Fed
eral representatives it effectively killed
any chance for an airport agreement
this year, in the opinion Of Clarence
A. Miller, chairman of the Aviation
Committee of the Washington Board
Of Trade.
I'VE can't 60 ahead on the basis OF
the bill passed by the House." MIR.
Miller said. 81 am certain the District
Commissioners will oppose this bill
vigorously and the Board of Trade will
have to do so"
Mr.. Miller pointed out the injustice
of. setting up commission composed
"preponderantly Of Federal personnel, /"
to select an airport site to be paid for
wholly out Of District taxpayers,
pockets. D..
"The odds are 10 to / that the site
would not even be in the District of
Columbia" Mr.. Miller said.

CHANGES ORDERED
ON FIVE BUS LINES
Recent Recruiting Plans Set
Aside-Revisions Mostly
Minor.

Revision Of the routes Of five bus
lines operating In the eastern sections
Of the city was ordered today by the
Public Utilities Commission, effective
Sunday morning. The changes were
approved by the District Commis-
sioners.
Today's order sets aside re-routing
plans recently announced by the COM
mission. but only minor changes are
provided for in several OF the lines.
Petitions from residents of the areas
cause some Of the new changes and
others are intended to effect better
operation. There has been active pub
lie discussion of the routes for many
weeks.
One CT the most definite changes
affects the route of the Barry Farm
Garfield line, which now Is to be ex-
tended on the north to connect with
street car lines at the Navy Yard.
The bus line now operates from Mich
OILS avenue and Good Hope road to Al
ALBANIA and Nichols avenues. Begin
ming Sunday the buses win run from
Eighth and l. streets southeast north
ON Eighth. east. on Virginia avenue.
south on Ninth, east on M, south on
Eleventh, over the Anacostia Bridge
and along Nichols avenue. Morris'road,
Pomeroy road, Stanton road and Ala
bama avenue and Anger place.
East Washington Change.
A change In the recently ordered
new route Of the East Washington
line was ordered today to make q con-
nection with the residential area near
Seventeenth and d streets northeast,
en- route to Barney Circle. Beginning
Sunday, these busses, inbound from
the District line, will go south on
Bladensburg road. west on H and Flor
ida avenue, south on Thirteenth, east
on D, south on Seventeenth, west on
North Carolina avenue and then over
the previously ordered route to Bar
ney Circle at Seventeenth street and
Pennsylvania avenue southeast.
The Benning bus line. now terrni-
mating at the Benning Bridge will be
changed Sunday to send the buses
north along Minnesota avenue TO
Deane avenue and then west to Kenil-
worth avenue. One Of the purposes
of the extension Of the line these sew
eral blocks north was to afford con-
nection with the busses that run to
Chesapeake junction.
Hillcrest Returns to Old Plan.
The Hillcrest bus line route will
20 back substantially to its old plan,
instead of the reversible loop operation
recently announced. It will be extend
ed somewhat so as to have buses
pass along Camden street. The route
will be from Barney Circle east on
PENNSYLVANIA avenue, south on Branch,
west on Camden, north on Thirty-Sec-
ond, and along Alabama avenue to
Good Hope road, the return to be
made over the same route.
The Randle Highlands busses, after
Sunday, will make turn around at
q small triangle at Twenty-Fifth and
r streets, instead of going west to
Minnesota avenue. The new route will
be from Barney Circle east on Penn
sylyania avenue, south on Twenty
Fifth. west on Naylor road, east on
r street, north on Twenty-Fifth street
to Pennsylvania avenue and then west
to Barney Circle. 4

SUIT ENDED, MORE
DIVIDENDS LIKELY
II District National Bank
Stockholders Lose As
Sessment Fight.

Depositors In the insolvent District
National Bank may look forward to the
possibility of increased dividends in
the future as a result of II stock
holders losing their court fight to
escape 100 per cent stock assessment,
but any additional dividends probably
will not be Forthcoming for several
months.
This was indicated today in re-
sponsible circles, as attorneys and the
receiver for the bank, Norman r. Ham
ilton, studied the decision of Justice
Jesse C. Adkins in District Supreme
Court dismissing the suit of II stock
holders who had attempted to escape
assessment.
Order Signed This Morning.
Justice Adkins handed down his
decision late yesterday, but signed
the Official order this morning dis
missing the case. Many factors are
involved in the possibility of any more
dividends. In the first place, Justice
Adkins gave the stockholders oppor-
tunity to amend their suit in one re-
spect. Funds already collected from
stock assessment to date had been
held in q special fund in trust for
the owners. whoever. the owners may
be as finally determined by the court.
The receiver may have to wait until
all details and possibilities in the
court case are cleared up and decided.
before he can pay another dividend.
But should the decision Of Justice
Adkins stand, it means that the de-
positors have the possibility OF realiz-
ing on whatever can be collected on
the 81 ,0U0, 900, assessment against the
stockholders. Receiverships never are
able to collect the full 100 per cent
from all stockholders.
In his decision Justice Adkins point
ed out that closed banks should be
liuuidated quickly, and said that IN
this case, even though the bank might
ultimately pay its debts without an
assessment, the stockholders rather
than the creditors should run the risk
of loss ane suffer the delay.
Complaint Held Inadequate.
Justice Adkins dismissed the suit on
the ground the bill of complaint did
not state facts sufflcient to justify him
in enjoining the collection Of the stock
assessment, and did not pass directly
on the validity of the other conten-
tions. He held these were not proper
part of the bin and gave the stock
holders an opportunity to amend their
suit In this respect If they desire to
do 50.

tits, while the defendants were repre-
sented by Charles e. Wainwright,
George p. Barse and Roger Whitford.
