The report made to Health Officer Hammett of the work of last week ,as well as of the work for the time previous to and including last week, was transmitted to the Commissioners. In do- ing so the health officer wrot Ihave the honor to submit the following re- port of the work done in this department under the house-to-house inspections, as compiled from the reports of the inspectors, for the week ending June 3, 1893: Number of squares in- spected, 90; number of houses ard premi inspected, ' 1,082; number of _ familie occupying houses, 1,116; number of persons residing” in’ houses, 5,337; number of rooms, 7,790; number of water closets, 1,832; number of box privies, 196; number of nuisances found, 357; number of lawful garbage receptacles, 390; number of un- lawful garbuge receptacles, 544; number of premises sewared, 941; number of premises without sewors, 14i. ‘Making total inspections in this service to date as follows: Squares, 605; houses and prem- ines,14.2 ilies, 14,350 porsons,72,505;r007 » 106,130; water closets, 19,677 box privies, 2,910; nuisances, 4,250; lawful garbage receptacles, 4,278; unlawful’ garbage receptacles, 7.278; number of premises sewered, 11,932; number of premises without sewers, 2,335. Daring the week 25% nuisances previously reported were abated and 599 premises found without mod- ern plumbing. ‘The squares inspected during the week were as follows: 88, 59, 60, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67 and 68, Georgetown; 54, 75,’ 163, 164, 184, 465, 456, =, 562, 568, 565, 624, w. 624, 726, 727, 758, 765, 789, 790, 791, 792, 819. In compliance with your instructions relative to the water supply on these squares I have to report that 987 of the premises were connected with water mains from the Potomac, the occu- panis of 115 obtain their water from hydrants on streets, and 29 from wells.

The Bush case was a test case to settle the question whether a dealer doing business under a license issued under the old law for the license year ending November 1, 1893, was required when the new law was enacted to take out a new license under the new law. Judge Miller | held that the new law repealed the old and annulled licenses issued under it ‘Tho majority of the Court of — Ap- peals are of the opposite opinion, and by their decision remand the case for a new trial, holding that Judge Miller erred in refusing to admit the old license im evidence. Chief Justice Alvey dissented and delivered an opinion sustaining the position taken by Judge Miller. The Opinion of the Court. Following is the text of the opinion delivered by Judge Shepard, in which Judge Morris con- curred: March 3, 1893, Congress passed an act, which took effect from ), Tegalating the sale of liquors in the District of Columbia, and the manner of obtaining license therefor. Beforo this time the sale of liquors had been regularly licensed under the provisions of an act of the old legislative assembly of the Dis- trict, enacted August 23, 1871. While the sale of liquors: at wholesale and retail is fully permitted under each act, the later one is more stringent in its provisions with respect to the terms and conditions upon which licenses may be obtained, as weil as the manner in which the business shall be con- ducted. Among other things the license fee for keep- ing a bar room has been raised from #100 to 400 por year. By provision of the old law the license year was made to terminate on November 1 of each year, and each license, no matter when issued, ‘was made to expire on that day, and had then to be renewed. The new law provides that no license shall issue for a longer period than one year, but creates no special license year of its own, un- Jess inferentially, in the seventeenth section, hereafter noticed. Bush had taken ont «license under the old law, which, by its terms, authorized him to keep a barroom until November 1, 1493, and con- tinued the sale of liquors thereunder withoat taking out, or applying for, a license under the new law. He wus prosecuted in the Police Court of the District for sales of liquora proved to have been made on March 17, 1893, was convicted, and has sued out a writ of error to the Supreme Court of the District im General Term, whence it! transferre@ to this court by operation $f tae, Bush did not upon the trial deny ‘the sale of the liquors upon the date cha: but sought to justify under the unexpired license afore- said, which he offered in evidence, ‘The court, holding that the new law entirel; repealed the old and abrogated all lic: issued thereunder, excluded the licenee,’and this action, having been duly excepted to, is asigned as error, Itis not denied by the plaintiff in error that Congress had the power to annul all existing license without compensation or rebate to the licensees, but it is denied that the new law has this effect. On the contrary, it is claimed that its provisions expressly recognize the existing licenses as valid for their unexpired terms, THE REPEALING CLAUSE. The repealing clause of the act of March 3, 1893, reads as follows: Sec. 21. That this act shall be in lieu of and asa substitute for all existing laws and regula- tions in the District of Columbia in relation to the sale of distilled and fermented liquors in Jaws inconsistent with this act, except such laws as are applicable to the sule of liquor within one mile of the Soldiers’ Home be, and they are hereby, repealed. The language of this clause is peculiar and renders it apparent that Congress intended this act asa complete substitute for all other laws thereafter all licenses shouid be tken out and all prosecutions muintained under its provisions alone. At the same time it may be said that the gen- eral policy of the new law ix not different to that of the old; it has not in view the suppres- sion of the sale of liquor any more than the old, but simply provides more atringent regulations in the interest of order and decency, as well as @ considerable increase in the revenue to be de- rived therefrom. ‘The new statute makes no provision whate by its terms with respect to the unexpired censes issued under the old law and contains no reference to them unless it may be found in the 17th section, which reads as follows: “That all applicants who have hud a heenso during the preceding year shall apply for a renewal of such license on or before November 1 of each license year, and shall be per- mitted to continue business until license shall be granted or refused by the excise board; but in ull cases of refusal to grant license such proportion of the license fee &s may have become due shall be deducted and retained from the sum deposited therefor as the time from the first day of November to the date of such refusal bears to the entire license Fear, and no other person shall be permitted to conduct said Lusiness until a license is issued therefor. It is contended on behalf of the plaintiff in error that this section refers to the license year ver ax to some other occupation), and expressly recognizes the liquor licenses thereunder as continuing in force until November 1, 1698. in the view that we have taken of the case it ig not necessary to decide this question, and this section is only considered in arriving at the intention of Congress as contained in the whole act. | In construing a statute its subject matter, reason and effect must all be looked to, and if its words, taken literally, bear an unreasonable Signifieation there may be somo deviation from the ordinary sense. unless it be plain that such signification only was intended. THE INTENTION OF CONGRESS. While it is not within the judicial power, by construction, to cure defects which may ren- der laws unjust or even oppressive. if they clearly exist, yet no statute should be eo con- strued as to render it unreasonable or unjust in its operations if there be room for construc- | tion at all. Then, in the absence of any expressed in- tention’ to abrogate all licenses issued under | the old law, and in the light of the subject mat- | ter, reason and spirit of the new law, taken in connection also with the ambiguous language of the seventeenth section and certain expres- | sions in other parts of ihe act, we cannot find | that Congress deliberately intended by the | mere repeal of the old law to destroy all privi- leges under it, and take from the owners thereof not only the right to do ousiness under licenses for which they had paid in good faith, but also to confiscate their value for the gaexpired terme. If the contrary view should be taken then we must believe that Congress intended all sales of liquor in the District should cease on March 3, the said District, and that all laws or parts of | and regulations upon the subject, and that | as created by the oid law (which is in force still | | that there was any vested right in the license which the state could not take away, for the court expressly held to the contrary. To the same effect substantially, see Davis agt. State, 2 Tex. Ct. App., 425. | The repealing clause of the Ohio act reads thus: “All laws or parts of laws licensing the sale of spirituous liquors which are inconsist- | ent with the provisions of this act be, and the same are hereby, revealed. Construing this the court said: ‘This repeal- ing clause affects nothing but the power to grant licenses in future after the law took effect. | It repealed the authority in the law of 1831 to grant any more licenses to retail spirituous | Uquors, but nothing further. ‘There is no language employed expressive of any intention to revoke or annul the unex- | pred Hcenses previously granted under it. ¢ license was & privilege, an acquired right, which, during its term, was not psa on the continuance of the law under which it had | been granted. “If a license had been granted and taken out under the act of 1831 on one day, and the next day the entire law had been repealed, it could | not be claimed that the license to keep a tavern was revoked. The repeal of the law would sim- ply take away the authority to grant future | licenses. It is clear that the unexpired licenses wero not expressly repealed or revoked by the act of 1831." We do not wish to be understood, by quoting it, as adopting im full the language of the Ohio | case, for it isa different one to this ina ma- terial particular. In that case a radical change of public policy was made, while in this there has been none. 4 MASSACHUSETTS DECISION. The view wo have take of this case is sup- ported by United Hebrew Association against Benshinol (130 Mass., 825), in which it was held that an act repealing the former incorporation act and substituting another for it with many details, did not repeal the charter of & corporation formed under the repealed law. ‘The court concluded that it could not be held that the legislature intended to destroy corpor- | ations created under the repealed law, when | the repealing statute only extended the provis- ions of the old and perfected its details without changing its general policy. In the application of the case it must be borne in mind that the charters taken out un- der the repenled law were not contracts beyond the power of the state to annul, because the Jaw contained an express reservation of power in the state to alter,amend or abolish at its | pleasure all charters granted thereunder, Under such astatute a charter is but a license to do business in acertain way. Itcan no more be called @ contract, in the legal sense of that term, than @ license to sell liquor or to j pursue any other taxable calling can be so | called. THE QUESTION OF CONTRACT. contract, if you will, it can distinguish it, fn point of law, from a license to pursue a call- ing. If any difference, the license has the stronger claim, because the pursuit of the cail- ing iss thing of common right in the absence of a regulatory statute, while the corporation never could exist without a grant of the fran- In view of the importance of the interests involved in this case and of the able and earn- est argument on behalf of the District we deem it proper to review the loading cases that have been relied on to support the judgment of the court below. THE CASES CITED. (1.) Moore agt. Indianapolis, 120 Ind., 483.— ‘This case is not in point because the repealing ordinance’ there construed made express provision for taking up the old licenses and crediting the sums due for the unexe- pired terms upon the new. The case, there- fore, is authority only for the propositions now scarcely denied anywhere—that a license to carry on a business is not a contract which it is beyond the power of the state to aynul. The same may be said of Metropolitan Board of Excise against Barrie, 34 N. Y., 657; for in it also there was no question but that the new | law was intended to abolish ail licenses under the one that was repealed. In the case of Pleuber against state, 11 Neb., 547, the court did not decide that the licenss jissued under the repeal law could not femain in force without an express declara- tion to the contrary in the repealing act. The language of the statute is not set out in the report of the case, but m holding that the new law did repeal the former licenses the court said: ‘We do find in the body of the new law satisfactory evidence of such intention.” REMANDED FOR NEW TRIAL We are of the opinion that the court below etred in excluding the licende when offered in evidence, and that the judgment should be re- Versed and the cause remanded for new trial. Chief Justice Alvey's Dissenting Opinion. Chiet Justice Alvey did not concur in the opinion given ubove and delivered a dissenting opinion as follows: I regret exceedingly’ my inability to concur with my brothers im the view that they have taken of this case. And, differing from them 80 radically as I do, I deem it proper to state | the grounds upon which my judgment is founded. This case has been transferred to this court from the general term of the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia, where it was pending on writ of error to the Police Court of the Dis- trict. The plaintiff in error was convicted in the Police Court ot the alleged offense of violating the present license law of the District in keeping a bar room and selling therein in- toxicating liquors, without license obtained therefor, contrary to the provisions of the re- cent act of Congress, approved March 8, 1893, entitled ““An act roguiating the sale of intoxi- cating liquors in the District of Columbia.” It is conceded that the act took effect and went into operation from the date of its pas- sage, that if March 3, 1893. It does not pro- fess to be amentiatory of or supplementary to any previous or then existing legislation upon the subject * of its provisions, but | professes to be, as it doubtless is, an act to Togulate fully and completely the subject of | the sale of intoxicating liquors in this Dis- trict, and that without any reference to pre-existing law. It declares a severe penal system of police upon the subject, coupled with an object of revenue; whereas the pre-existing law upon | the subject, as enacted by the late legislative wsembly of the District August 23, 1871, was, as construed by the Supreme Court of the Dis- trict, a mere revenue law. NO EXPRESS RESERVATION. This act of Congress makes no express saving or reservation with regard to pre-existing license, nor for crediting any fart |of the amount paid therefor or the mount required to be paid for li- |conses under the new law. It is | conceded, indeed, it could not be denied, that | the licenres in existence at the time the act of | Congress went into effect were not contracts | as betweon the holder thereof and the munic- |ipal government ot the District. They were, in legal contemplation, mere permits, sub- [ject | iat all times’ to revocation by ogialative authority competent to presoril rules of police; and as the Congress of the Continued on Ninth page. it | | tinue using the gold reserve to the extent | | necessary and not to issue bonds. As indicated | in Tux Star yesterday, he dosires that the full | gravity of the situation should be apparent at | ; the time of the meeting of Congress, so that | the legislative branch of the government shall | j have the duty pressing upon them to correct the laws protecting the finance. It is claimed for the administration that | there is no obligation to issue bonds at onee to | make up the deficiency in the gold reserve and that t_reserve may be used in the course of business, It is said | that should it run as low as twenty-five or | thirty millions before any financial legislation j is had there will be no issue of bonds until ex- | pressly authorized by Congress at a lower in- ‘terest than can be issued under the | prosent law. The President desires Con- | gress to be confronted when it meets with the Practical demonstration of the depleting effect of the silver purchases upon the gold in the | treasury. Unless the situation should grow very | much worse, resulting in a general panic, the President does not desire any radical steps to | be taken until Congress meets in September, but if developments should require prompter action then Congross would be called together for it. The long list of financial failures ap- | pearing in the morning dispatches, it is be- Tloved. hiss not affected the President's judg- ment as to the policy to be pursued. Mr. Carlisle reached Washington last night and was atthe cabinet meeting today, which aseembled at 11 o'clock. Mr. Il also ro- turned and was at the meeting. The only ab- sentees were Messrs. Lamont and Morton The financial situation and the out- look for legislation the coming session of Congress were the subjects of discussion. It was not expected at the honr of meeting that the discussion would lead to any change from the line of action indicated — above. Before the meeting of the cabi- net the President had a talk with four members of the ways and means committee of the last douse who will certainly be cn that committee in the next Congress. They were Wilson, who will probably be chairman of the new’ committee; Montgomery, Turner and McMillin, Other callers were Senators Berry, Gordon, Mills, Call and Lindsoy and Representatives Richardson, Durburow, Henderson of North Carolina, Bynum, Brookshire, O’Ferrall, Bauk- head and Snodgrass, Chairman Harrity hada long talk with the President again this morning on the subject of appointments of the collectors of internal reve- nue for the eastern district of Pennsylvania and the pension agent for the western district. There is practically no doubt that his candi- date, Doyle, will get the collectorship and that Skinner, whom he is urging for pension agent, will be appointed, riots See CRT Ese THE EXTRA SESSION, President Clevelang Says He Will Convene Congress in September. The President gave out a formal announce- ment last night that he intends to call an extra session of Congress not earlier than the Ist nor later than the 15th of September, unless unex- pected contingencies should necessitate an earlier meeting. ‘The President further said: “While there has been no mystery or secrecy in regard to my in- tention in this matter, I think it not amiss that our people should be informed authoritatively that the time is at hand when their representa tives in Congress will be called upon to deal with a financial condition, which is the only menace to the country’s welfare and prosper- ity. Itis well for the people to take up the subject for themselves and arrive at their own conclusions as to the merits of a financial policy which obiiges us to purchase idle silver bullion with gold taken from onr reserve. One docs not need the eye of a financier to see that this gold thus subtracted from the govern- ment's stock is eagerly seized by other nations for the purpose of strengthening their own credit at our expense. “It does not need the art of statesmanship to detect the danger that awaits upon the con- tiauance of this operation. Already the timidity of capital is painfully apparent, and none of us can fail to sco that fear and appre- hension in monetary circles will ultiniately bring suffering to every humble home in our ni “I think that betweon now and the meeting of Congress much depends upon the action of those engaged in financial operations and busi- ness enterprises, Our vast national resources id credit are abundantly sufficient to justify them in the utmost faith and confidence. If instead of being frightened they are conserva- tive, and if instead of gloomily anticipating immediate disaster they coxtribute their share of hope and steadiness they will perform a patriotic duty and at tho same time protect their own interest. The things just now needed are coolness and calmness in financial circles and study and reflection among our people.” WAITING FOR A DECISION, The Patent Office Investigation Will Go On in a Few Days. The patent office investigation has been de- layed several days longer than was ex- pected because of tho absence from the city of the Attorney General. His opinion 8, 1893, expressly says that the informations under it shali be filed by the attorney for the District or by any of his assistants, and that | Congress did not in fact make nor did it intend to make that officer a federal officer. | The other contention of Dempsey that the act of March 3%, 1893, is not in| force within the | one-mile limit would, if it be true, say the court, vent the prosecution of any person velling liquor in that territory, and would make that territory, which Corfgress seduously sought to purge from the sale of liquor, free to all | comers for the sale of liquors without license, | without fee aud without restriction of any kind. PROHIBITING THE TRAFFIC IX THAT TERRITORY. There is n0 inconsistency, say the | court, between the act of February 28, 1891, and the act of March 3. 1893. The former act prohibits the granting of liquor licenses in the one-mile | limit, thereby virtually biting the traffic itself within that region. ‘The reference in sec- tion 21 of the act of March 3, 1893, to the Sol- diers’ Home was evidently for abundant cau- tion to negative any implication that the act | was to be a a substitute for the other. | Thedefendant, Dempsey, had no license under either the act of 1873 or the assembly | act of 1871. The act of 1893 was plainly operative in his case. It probibited under penalty the traffic in liquor st any place in the District except in pur- suance of a license. It im ited in itself, because it did not repeal the act of wey 28, 1891. it therefore, yen prohibit withia region uw it to the Soldiers’ Home, the sale of intoxicating liquors, with or without license, by superadding the prohibition of license for that region. It is very plain, the court say in conclusion, that the defendant has brought himself within the operation of the penalty prescribed by the act of March 3, 1893, and that the judgment of the Police Court against him shoid - be affirmed with costs ‘The writ of error will therefore be dismissed and the cause remanded to the Police Court, with directions to carry ite judgment into effect. nei ings BANKERS AND THE SITUATION, They Did Not Try to Force the Issue of Bonds, but Foresaw Disaster. Henry Clews in his financial bulletin issued Yesterday anys: “Recent reports from Washington say that it is the opinion of the Secretary of the Treasury that the gold reserve is being drawn upon at the present rapid rate for the purpose of forcing the government to issue bonds; in other words, that it is = conspiracy. I know of my own knowledge that such is not the case. Lean positively say that in the present condi- tion of financial affairs there is not a bank or banker today in New York that is particu- larly anxious to exchange gold for United States bonds. The time has passed for it to be an object for them to do so (even if it r was,which I doubt) either have the banks at any time been guided by self-interest im the matter during the past six months. A few sagactous bank officials and other ex financial men have suggested at various times a bond issue and expresved a willingness to take bonds in exchange for gold, as they foresaw what would happen if such a policy were not jopted, but now that what wae expected bas really bappened, as the “present lamentable state of affairs is evidence of, it only goes to show the sincerity which backed their proposal, it only having for its incentive a laudable. de: sire to avert the storm. IT WOULD HAVE PREVENTED A CRAs. “Had « bond issue beon made sixty days ago, when the banks were willing to part with their gold in exchange for bonds on a3 per cent basis to the extent of $50,000,000, the financial erash which has since occurred and is now spreading all over the nation would not have had an existence. It is true the banks were extremely anxious to doallin their power to prevent such a sorry state of things as now exist, as they were naturally interested in preventing the failure of their correspondents, which intion in securities and withdrawal of — cred- it necessarily causes. They therefore favored the best and only remedy to meet the threatened widespread financial disturbance, not unlike the usual practice onthe part of business men to settle a case befor’. reaching the courts as against the usual lawyer's judgment to effect a settlement through the courts after # crimina- tion and recrimination fight.
