TWO CENTS. /THE DISTRICT WILL GAIN BY IT. Two Decisions Made by the Court in General Term To-day. ‘Two decisions of importance to the District were made by the Court in General Term to-day. In the case of Brith against the District the court decided that the assessments for special Amprovements bear interest from thirty days after the assessment, without reference to the date of the lien certificate, In the case of Fraser agt. the District of Colum- bia, Judge Merrick this morning orally delivered the opinion of the court. This wasone of the poles of forty-four cases brought by the Messrs, ney 1m Which, by writ of certiorarl, certain tax- Men cases Were Brought up for review. A motion ‘Was made and argued to quash the certificates on the Of illegality. Tn this case the court Sfants the motion and quashes the cortificate on ground that the amount stated Is in excess of ‘the amount as revised. ‘The court holds that the special assessments were ratified by the act of June 19, ‘and as revised they should be col- leoted With interest from thirty days after the ate of the original assessment, ‘This decision does not touch the cases based on assessments of the old tion of Washington or the cases on assessments for water-main tax. ‘THE COMMISSIONERS NOTIFIED. Assistant District Attorney H. E. Davis person- ally notified the Commissioners of the decisions to- day.

The matter was brought to the attention of tue Commissioners, and they or- dered that the issue of len certificates be sus- ended pending the revision of the assessments as authorized by an act of Co1 ‘This was in ac- cordance with the general wish of the citizens of ‘the District. In many cases the len certificates for the revised assessin-nt was not issued until 1881 or 1882, and tben the people objected to Deing charged with interest trom the date of the Original assessment. If this had been done there ‘Would have been a “loss to the District of 70 per cent on the amount of the assessinents, being tue amount of the interest ch: ‘at the rate of 10 pzcont per annum for the years from 1873 to —__ SENATORS TO BE SWORN IN. ‘The Balance of Power at Present Held by Mr, Riddleverger, The credentials of all the newly-elected Sena- tors have been presented to the Senate with the exception of those of Messrs.
