Pay An Important Decision as to Permit Work on Suburban Streets BY THE ATTORNEY GENERAL. ‘The Complaints Still Heard About Street Musicians—As to Naming Streets—News Notes of Local Interest. a The Commissioners today received an opinion from the Attorney General in which he holds ‘oiors | that the Commissioners have 20 authority to , | allow the application made by the proprietors of Petworth for the improvement of the public ways or roads therein ont of the for permit work under the act of March 8, 1891, as the work was done outside cf the city. This is an interesting case, and its history dates back several months, when the owners of the subdivision first made application for the improvement of certain streets under the act above referred to, In the appropria- tion act for the years 1891 and 1892 there isa clause appropriating $50,000 for the im- Provement of roadways under the permit sys- tem. There isa proviso, however, stipulating its use for the paving of roadways which area continuation of tike pavements already in exist- ence. The object of this was to probibit its use for the improvement of streets in spots )| for the benefit of individuals instead of the general public, When the Petworth people made application for the improvement of cer- worth owners, however, were anxious to have the work done, and upon an order of the Com- missioners deposited 9,000, that being one- half of the cost of the work.
