RUNNING CARS THROUGH THE STREETS BY Steam.—Yesterday after our report of the case of the parties charged with running trains through the city by steam before Justice Wal- ter, the case was argued by the counsel. Mr. Bradley called the attention of the Jus- tice to the statutes bearing on the case. The formalities of a warrant and bave been gone through with, although the ‘warrant was said to be defective. leaded to the warrant. the investigation is to deter- Mine whether anuisance had been or is being committed. Mr. Bradley proceeded to review He claimed, although the com- pany use due care, yet their use of it as at present, is prejudicial to the lives and health The present company haye leased the road from the Washington and Alex- andria company, and stand for them, and the law authorizing the extension of the road ap- plied to the Orange abd Alexandria road. The act of March 30, i5, provides that they cannot run through the streets or over the structure Across the Potomac unless the consent of the corporation is first obtained. They are also re- quired to keep the streets along the line of the road in good repair. He would only invoke the Justice to use the measures for the abatement ces As granted. Col. Wells said that the objection was that the company ran their cars by steam. They bad proved thatthe trains were notrun too fast, and that precantions were used to prevent They were willing to obey any rea- sonable order, and were willing that trains should not run above three miles per hour, The prosecution was a war on the rond because steam was used. He de- nieu that the trains were ran by steam without the consent of Congress, fur the act of incorpo- Fation uses the term, «the rights of railroads,” and it did not mean horse railroads. the cars had been run by steam, and no objec- If the road is stopped, the traffic to and from the South would cease, and it was daily growing, sometimes 400 bales of cotton per week being brought from Georgia. could not be used for borses, and to compel the use of horses was to prohibit the road altogether from entering the He denied that the police or the justice had any jurisdiction in the case, and asked under what statute was the case being tried. He claimed that the section quoted gave power to the police to examine and condemn just what was mentioned—ferry boats, slanghter- houses, mannfactories, buildings and edifices— Better look after the canal than the Orange and Alexandria railroad. prosecution was like the oppositior to Stephen- son's locomotive in England, against which the people complained on the ground that the health of the city was impaired by inhaling It is competent for the municipal au- thorities to make regulations, and like law- abiding citizens they would respect such; but he denied that the police pessessed any power or dress @ note to ‘*A. .

At that time a horse railroad was not thought of, and two years before Mayor Maury recommended that the city subscribe $500,W0 to get the Orange and Alexandria Rail- road to run into this city. when the people of the Seventh Ward, who now oppose the meas- ure, were almost to a man in favor of it, they being then sfraid that the rond would be car- ried to Georgetown given its consent to running through the city, and at this time there was a bill before the Aldermen which had passed the other branch of the Corporation, making certain regulations as to the renning of the ears The road had not been shown in the investi- gation to bave been in fault, and if the cars Since the company had obtained possession of the road had been run through recklessly he owned that there should be some law to prevent it, but he denied that such had been the case.
