The President has taken the following action on applications for pardon: In the case of Dennis Kelly, convicted of man- slaughter and sentenced to eighteen month? im- Prisonment at Portland, Me., he says the defend- ant having been a good soldier and his offense ap- pearing to be the result of an excitable tempera- ment rather than any malicious intent, and the convict having served the entire extent of his sen- tence, a pardon ts granted to restore him to citi- zenship. He hasgranted a pardon to Geo, H. Daubner, sentenced to three years’ imprisonment in Wiscon- sin for pension frauds. ‘The President says: “His offense prejudices me very much against granting him any reilef, but bis sentence having been served, and Hon. Edward L. Brigg, himself a brave and distinguished soldier, having given the opinion that since bis sentence the convict has behaved ‘well, and the pardon is granted for the ot Festoring him to rights or eltizenshipe Poe He has pardoned £. 8.

Railroad Company. A COMMITTRE TO TRAVEL AND MAKE INQUIRIES—DIF- FERENT SYSTEMS PROPOSED FOR THE AVENCE LINE —THE 14TH STREET “BOBTAILS.” The board of directors of the Washington and Georgetown Railroad company has adopted a resolution directing the appointment of a commit- tee “for the purpose of taking under advisement all questions jooking to the future requirements of the company, and that they be directed to Visit the various cities where cable roads are in operation, and that they solictt correspondence in regard to the various kinds of motive power used on street railroads.” President Hurt said to a Srar reporter to-day that this committee would probably leave the efty in April and make an extended investigation of all the methods now tn use tor eas ‘street cars, SO that the company would able to go be- fore the committees of Co ess With a definite proposition as to what they considered the best system, As the bill introduced in the sion Of Congress to amend the chart ton and Georgetown company so as to px them to tse the cabie or the electric motor §) falled of passage, the company cannot effe a change unul some congressional action is taken. ‘Phe charter requires them to use carriages “drawn by horse-power. ‘THE DIFFRRENT SYSTEMS. ‘Mr. Hurt said that 1t was not yet demonstrated that horses did not after all furnish the best and most reliable motive power, but the company de- sired to equip its road with what was best for the public, believing that that would be the best for the company, as the interests of the company and the public are identical. In Philadelphia, the cable road had not been, ag he was informed, a success, 9m other cities, however, It was. Lo be successful. Improvements were constantly delng made, however, in cables for railroad pure poses. The cable systems that have been ap- proved by use cost about $100,000 a mile; now a Chicago company had de' @ system, which they claimed was efficient, that would cost but $20,000 a mile. ELECTRIO CARS, ‘Mr. Hurt sald that the application of electricity to street railroads was still largely experimental. ‘The system worked successfully in Toronto and Montgomery, Ala., were not, he thought, practi- cable for lange cities with crowded street& ‘The system would do in small cities or suburban laces. It requires a line of poles with an over- ead Wire, with which each car 18 connected by a “traveller.” The underground conduit ‘stem Was not satisfactory on account of leaking. Mr. Hurt thought that So far as the facts now known gave indication of the future that the only electric car that would be practicabie in lange cities would be a car with a storage buttery. Each car then would be independent and no wires would be needed. Whatever was determined to be the best tae company proposed to adopt if Congress au- thorized its adoption. ‘THE 14TH STREET “BOB TANS.” Speaking of the complaints about “bob tall” cars on 14th street, Mr. Hurt sald that the W. & G. Toad was the only one in Washington that used double cars. It used the single cars only on this mile and a half an 14th street, He would not blame the people on that line for complaining if the company proposed to perpetuate that system. It was the intention of the company in case Congress authorized the change in the charter to ut the same cars on 14th street as on the other Inés and run through cars down 14th street and along the avenue line to the navy yard, Asit was, he thought it unreasonable to a8k the company to to the trouble and expense of equipping that ine With double cars, when they might within sixty days after they put the carson have to take them off ee to make way for new cable or elec- tric cars, might, he said, be deemed best to re- tain horse power on the roads, in which case double cars would be placed on 14th street.
