trict Supreme Court for Corporation
Counsel E. Barrett Prettyman by his

PRICE RETURNED
TOFACE CHARGE
False PretenSeS Alleged in
Sale of Fictitious
Accounts.

Sought for almost a year, Henry
v. F. Price was brought here today
from Montreal to answer a false
pretense indictment growing out Of
transactions sour years ago. in which
he is alleged to have f1eeced the Mer-
chants Transfer & Storage Co. OF
approximately $4,000 through sale of
fictitious open accounts.
The whereabouts Of Price had been
unknown for four years after the col
lapse of his New York brokerage office
in 1881. However, two weeks ago he
was located in Montreal. Chief Deputy
United States Marshal Thomas OFT
brought him to Washington.
The indictment, which names three
specific deals involving q total Of
$l,944. charges Price sold at a dis
count to the Washington firm nom
existent accounts which he claimed
were due and payable to him. He
represented himself as broker in the
shellac, paint and varnish business.
At that time. the Merchants Trans
fer & Storage Co. was in the business
of purchasing accounts receivable.
All the business with Price was
conducted by mail. officials were told
a number Of the open accounts sold
to the Merchants Transfer & Storage
Co. were genuine, but that others were
entirely spurious. The indictment was
returned October /, 1884.

D. c. LIQUOR FIGHT
WILL MOVE HIGHER
A. 3. c. Board to Take Dis.
pute to City Heads-Mo-
nopoIy Feared.

A determined fight between Wash
ington retailers and wholesalers over
proposed rules to control importation
of liquor into the District will be car
ried to the Commissioners by the Al
coholic Beverage Control Board in a
few days.
The board has drafted a proposed
rule to require retailers to buy their
supplies from wholesalers licensed by
the District, except in cases in which
the retailers can show proof they can
not get desired brands from whole
sale firms licensed here.
Retailers now are permitted to buy
through solicitors for wholesalers from
other jurisdictions as well as from
District wholesalers. The debate
turns on an amendment to the law
giving the Commissioners discretion
ary powers in fixing rules.
Charges that the proposed new rule
would make possible a monopoly and
place retailers under the control of
manufacturers and wholesalers were
voiced yesterday by retailers at a
hearing before the A. B. c. Board.
Spokesman for wholesalers protested
not many of their group could con-
tinue to stand competition offered by
.out-of-town wholesalers. They ex-
planned that District wholesalers must
pay annual license fees of $500,
whereas out-of-town wholesalers can
do business here by merely paying a
500 fee for a solicitor.
Milford Schwartz, counsel to the
Wholesale Liquor Distributors Asso-
citation, said: eff by the widest
stretch of imagination a monopoly did
result, such a situation could very
easily be corrected by the A. B. G.
Board
Emanuel Davis of the District of Co.
lunbia Exclusive Retail Liquor Deal
ers' Association and Albert w. Jacob
son, attorney for the National Bev-
erage Stores, led a fight against adop-
ton Of the so-called CLOSED door,
policy.
George w. offutt, chairman of the
A. B. C. Board, said digest of all
arguments would be submitted soon
to the Commissioners, without recon-
mendation.

HIGHWAY IS CITED
|NBOUNDARY PLEA
Virginia Counsel Says Mill
tary Road Disputes
River Bed Claim.

Construction by the Government Of
Military road at Washington Hoover
Airport was cited today by Frank l..
Ball Of Virginia as one reason why
the Federal Government never con-
sidered the marsh land formerly in
the airport as a real part Of the bed
of the Potomac River.
Appearing before the District-Vir-
ginia Boundary Commission, the
former Virginia State Senator was re-
plying to q previous argument by
Federal counsel that the marsh land
which since has been filled in to make
part Of the airport, originally was
the Potomac River bed and belonged
to the United States.
Maps Are Referred To.
Ball contended none of the Gov
ernment maps show the bed of the
Potomac River extending beyond the
so called Alexanders Island, where
the airport Is situated In arguing
for Virginia that the State boundary
is a low-water mark instead of high
water mark, as claimed by the United
States. Ball stoutly contended that
this marsh land back of Alexanders
Island was not Potomac River bed at
all but in reality was only a spring.
fed marsh.
The State counsel quoted a previous
witness before the commission as say
ing he personally had counted Is
springs in the marsh area. In addi-
ton to this, Ball claimed, there were
other springs which had been closed up.
Ball declared the Government by
its own acts had shown conclusively
it did not consider this marsh land
as bed Of the river. The three prin-
cipal reasons for Government control
of navigable water for the benefit of
all the people. he pointed out, were
for the protection of commerce, navi-
cation and fishing.
The first big thing the Government
did, Ball declared, to show the marsh
land was not considered bed Of the
river, was to build a solid road"
Military road, across this marsh. This
highway was so constructed, he
claimed, that mot a single drop of
water can get through"
The Virginia counsel was interrupted
by a Government counsel, Henry H.
Classic, who contended that the Gov
ernment always had a right to fill in
a navigable river in the interest Of
all the people.
Battery Cove Cited.
didn't the Government I'LL in Bat
terry Cove at Alexandria," asked
Classic.
Ball called attention to a photo
graph. taken in 1880 and introduced
previously by the Government, to
show that water was flowing out west
of the Richmond Washington High
way. He contended this water came
principally from springs west of the
highway.
First official objection to the recent
agreement on the District of Colum-
bia-Virginia boundary in the city Of
Alexandria was registered today at
the commission. 1t came from James
S. Cassidy, q consulting engineer.
representing several private property
interests. A letter from Cassidy to
Chairman Charles B. Brough Of the
commission, was formally made a
point of the record Of the commission
shortly before noon today. Cassidy OBJ
jected to the agreement and served
notice that he will file voluminous
brief In support Of his position.

NEW GLENN DALE

|NADEQUATEAL
Upshur Street tuberculosis
Base Urged to Continue
in Peabody Report.
TWO BEDS PER DEATH
IS HELD PROPER RATIO
Facilities for 220 Patients Are
Held Valuable Adjunct for
New Sanatorium.

Operation of the tuberculosis Hos
pital, at Fourteenth and Upshur
streets, will be required even after
completion of the new adult tubercu-
losis hospital at Glenn Dale, Md, II
the District is to maintain proper
treatment Of sufferers, the Commits
sioners were advised today by DR.. j.
Winthrop Peabody, general superin-
tendent of tuberculosis hospitals.
He presented figures to show the
present tuberculosis hospital. badly
overcrowded, cares for 220 patients
and that $50 others are under treat
ment at Gallinger Municipal Hospital.
This makes total of $40, whereas the
bed capacity of the new adult sanato-
rum will be but 400.
Conversion Anticipated.
1t had been generally presumed that
the old tuberculosis hospital would be
converted to other uses after compile
ton Of the new building at Glenn
Dale, scheduled for September / next
year. The plan has been also to re-
move tuberculosis patients from GAL
linger.
To impress the Commissioners with
the need Of continuing the hospital in
service, DR. Peabody, in his annual
report, stated:
statistics proposed by public health
authorities, in the past, have shown
that a community should have one
bed for each death, which would mean
that the District should have no less
than 600 beds.
Two-bed Goal Urged.
"Dr. Henry Chadwick, State COM
missioner Of health, Massachusetts, in
a paper presented before the National
tuberculosis Association in Toronto in
1888, said the desirable goal must be
revised to two beds per death. This,
he claimed, has been made necessary
by more effective case finding meth
DDS, by education of the people to the
fact that sanatorium care is more ef-
fective and also because modern
methods Of treatment by collapse
therapy require the facilities of a hos
pital or sanatorium.
THE above statement should make
us realize that the new adult sana-
torium, caring for only 400 patients,
will by no means care for all those
citizens Of Washington who may be
in desperate need Of disqualification,
so. very serious consideration should
be given to the thought as to whether
the present adult hospital should be
abandoned upon opening the new in
stitution. Only by having a sufficient
number of beds available to admit
patients as fast as application for
adnittance is made can we properly
and effectively carry on q tubercu-
losis control campaign"
