10 ECKINGTON TROLLEY How the District Government Was Caught Napping. : RAILROAD COMPANY GAINED A DELAY An Opinion in Which Many District Lawyers Concur. THE QUESTION OF APPEAL There is a belief culte generally held by the members of the bar, at least by those with whom a Star reporter today con- versed, that In the case of the Eckingtdh and Soldiers’ Héme Railway Company against the District Commissioners counsel for the Commissioners were caught nap- ping by counsel on the other side. Of course, it is not seriously doubted that the real purpose of the compary in bringing the sult for an injurction, to restrain the threatened interference on the part of the Commissioners with the company’s use of their overhead wires on New York avenue after the Ist instant, was that of delay only. No one familiar with the law in the mat- ter believed for a moment that the injunc- tion would be granted, and hence the Com- missioners were expected to so conduct the Case as to prevent the plainly evident pur- pese of the company; that Is, to prevent the company from tying their hands until the next session of Congress, when, it is equally evident, the company hope to se- cure, by legislative enactment, that which the éourt has just decided could not be ob- tained by an appeal to the courts. Therefore, the action of counsel for the Commissioners !n permitting the case to get into such shipe as to enable the company to obtain the much-ccveted delay has been @ matter of genuine surprise. Especially were those lawyers astonished who in- dorse the following cpinion of Mr. Clar- ence A. Brandenberg of the District bar, and who agree that this delay could have been prevented, and the Commissioners left free from any and all legal obstacles to proceed to tear down the poles and wires of the company, and in that way enforce the law. The opinion of Mr. Brandenberg is concurred in by not a few other mem- bers of the bar with whom a Star reporter teday conversed. Mr. Brandenberg’s Opinion. “As I understand the case,” said Mr. Brandenberg, “the Eckington road filed a bill to reatrain the threatened removal of its poles. At the time of filing the bill the court granted a temporary restraining or- @er. There is a substantial difference be- tween an injunction, granted by a court on final hearing, and a temporary restrain- ing crder issued upon an ex parte applica- tion, both as to effect and right of appeal. As soon as the Commissioners filed their answer to the Dill, the attorney for the rail- road company calendared the cause for hearing on bill and answer, hoping in this manner to put the case off until fall. The Commizsioners, instead of acceding to this position, apparently consented to a hearing on bill and answer, or, at all events, the case was so heard. “If, instead of consenting to a hearing on bill and answer, the Commissioners had Met the position of the railroad and con- gented to a postponement of hearing on the merits, or had insisted upon their right te a postponement of a hearing on the mer- its’ of the case until the case was reached in due course on. the assignment, and at the same time had accompanied their an- er with ‘a motion to dissolve the re- straining order, it seems to me the contro- verty by this time would have been prac- tically ended. On this motion the court would undoubtedly, as it did, have dis- charged the temporary restraining order. This would have left the Commissioners un- restrained and untrammeled. From the or- der of court dissolving the restraining or- der no appeal would lie to the Court of (betes This has been distinctly decided yy the Court of Appeals in the case of Harris P. Hurst vs. William H. Saunders et al., decided on December 10, 1894, and Teported in 22 Law Reporter, 841. That case is on all-fours with this one. “There a bill was filed to procure the can- gellation of a lease and to restrain the en- jorcement of a judgment in a landlord and nant case. A temporary restraining or- der wus issued upon the application of the complainant at the time of filing his bill. eet the coming in of the answer Saun- lers moved to dissolve the restraining or- der, and it was dissolved. From the order of diseolution, which made no other dispo- sition of the subject matter of the con- troversy, the complainant in the case ap- Pealed to the Court of Appeals. In that ct the court held: ‘It is difficult to see by wkat rule of law this appeal can be sustained. * * * The order appealed ficm is plainly an inter- locutory order, from which it is well set- tled thit no appeal will he, and it does not fall under the category of interlocutory or- ders, from which, under the seventh sec- tion of tke act creating this court, an ap- Deal 1s specia'ly provided. For {t is not an order by which the possession of property is changed or affected. * * * The order epncsion from is not even the dissolution of an injunction, but merely of a tempora- ry restraining order, and while the grant- ing of an injurction is enumerated among the orders that affect or change the pos- session of property, it is difficult to see how the disrolution of a restraining order can by any course of reasoning be brought into the same category.’ “Some attorneys have thought that the more recent case of the U. 8. Electric Lighting Co. agt. the Metropolitan Club has modified or changed the law as_pro- nounced by the court in the case of Hurst agt. Saunders, but it will be noted that in the former case the appeal was from an order granting a temporary restraining or- der, which {s materialiy different, as point- ed out by the Court of Appeals in the de- * efsion quoted. “It scemg to me, therefore, that had the hearing beén simply upon a motion to dis- Solve the temporary restraining order, the motion would necessarily have been grant- ed and from this order no appeal would lie. The case was, however, heard on bill and answer and a final order or decree o| tained dismissing the bill. Of course, from @ final order an appeal les to the Court of Appeals, but such an appeal would not, in my opinion, operate to keep alive the re- straining order. That has been dissolved. The temporary restraining order was an incident merely to the rellef sought. To hold an a from a final order dis- missing a bill keeps in force a temporary restraining order would be to hold that any act sought to be done could be. re- strained fcr months, although the person muking the aprlication for that purpose skculd- be without shadow of right to the relief he seeks How the People May Win. A correspondent of The Star quotes from an editorial in The Star of Friday the fol- lowing: “Is there no other way of checking the flagrant defiance of law involved in the continued {llegal use of the overhead wires?” and then proceeds to answer the query as follows “Yes, there Js one very effective way. If the people of Eckington and Brookland, who are the most interested parties, would emulate the example of the people of An- acostia, and, even at some personal incon- venience, refuse to further patronize the toad, the Eckington company would soon cease to use the trolley. Your correspond- ent. for one, will not be an accessory to the Eckington company’s defiance of the law. “The suggestion, made elsewhere in The Star, that if the wires should break the Commissioners could reverse the situat“n by refusing to grant a permit for their re- pair would be ineffective in the event of such an accident, unless the police along the line of the road are instructed to report immediately any break in the line, and to arrest any person repairing it; for it is not to be Le Pig that this law-defying com- pany would hesitate to make repairs with- ont authority should occasion arise. “The resistance to the law now being made by the Eckington company, it is hoped, will have the good effect of making clear to Congress the attitude of the com- pany, with the result, may be, of receiving deservedly severe handling. This is just the kind of case in which Congress would be justified in passing an act to repeal the charter of the road, direct the winding up of the company’s affairs, and sell the franchise to the highest bidder. It is not to be supposed that Congress, especialiy the Senate, will consent to give this compa- ny a further overhead trolley privilege, in THE EVENING STAR, TUESDAY,-JULY 16, 1895-TWELVE PAGES. the face of its defiance of the Jaw, ard the fact that by the time of the meeting of Congress the 9th street underground elec- tric system, there is every reason to believe, will be in successful operation. The North Capitol Street Poles. “Why do not the Commissioners require the Eckington company to remove its poles from North Capitol street south of Florida avenue, where they are just as much of an obstruction as on New York avenue, where they have never been used at all, and to which the injunction does not apply? The company was, I am told, directed early this year to pave between its tracks on this street from New York avenue to O street, but it has not yet condescended to do 80. “Your observation that ‘the community will expect in the movement upon the il- legal overhead wires a persistency and a frultfulness of resource in overcoming technical obstacles and the law's delays, which will at least equal the extent to which the same qualities were displayed in the prosecution of illegal ‘occupants of the sidewalks,’ expresses the sentiment of the law-abiding people of the city, whether in- terested in this partifular controversy or not. Although The Star is probably al- ready advised on the subject, I venture to state several ways in which the counsel for the District may gain a point on their op- ponents by taking advantage of legal tech- nicalities. Equity rule No. 93 (rules of Su- preme Court U. S., p. 63) as follows: “When an appeal from a*final decree, in an tquity suit, granting or dissolving an in- junction, is allowed by a justice or judge who took part in the decision of the cause, he may, in his discretion, at the time of such, allowance, make an order suspending or modifying the-injunction during the pendency of the appeal, upon such terms, es to bond or otherwise, as he may consider proper for the security of the rights of the opposite party.” eeAS Menace, Thomas and Duvall appear to think that the injunction restrains the Commissioners from interfering with the use, as well as from removing the poles and wires, it would seen: that an applica- tion might with propricty be made to Jus- uce Bingham for a modification of the in- junction granted by Judge Cox, so as to prevent the road from running its cars by overhead trolley until the Court of Ap- SUBURBAN NEWS ANACOSTIA. Memorial services were held Sunday at the M. E. Church at Cheltenham, Md., in honor of the late Julius Pyles. The ser- mon was delivered by Rev. Thomas Cross, a former pastor of the church, and Gen. John W. Horn, who was for many years warden of the Maryland penitentiary at | Baltimore, made an address, The music was conducted by Rev. J. R. Schultz and Mr. George Pyles presided at the organ. Solos were rendered by Mrs. W. S. Owen and | Byrdie Mae. The ladies of Trinity Protestant Episco- pal Church, Upper Marlboro’, held a plc- nic on the Town Hall grounds a few days ago for thé benefit of the church. The work was systematically assigned to the several committees who took charge of the tables. There was a dance in the hall at night, the music being furnished by mu- sicilans from Washington. The ladies real- iged a profit of $50, which will be used toward the renovation of the interior of the church. Mr. Joseph B. Conner, past grand chan- cellor of the Knights of Pythias of the District of Columbia, and other officers of the Grand Lodge of that jurisdiction, vis- ited Lakeland Lodge, No. 124, Knights of Pythias, at Lakeland, Prince George's county, Maryland, Saturday night, and conferred the first rank upon a candidate. The newly elected officers of the lodge will be installed at the next meeting. ~ The store of Thomas L. Carpenter at Smithville, Md., was robbed one night last week. The burglar entered by forcing a shutter, and made way with the cash drawer, centaining $8, and a lot of ready- made clothing. Bathing in costume in the Eastern branch of the Potomac is the latest feature that has been inaugurated among the youths and half-grown men of Anacostia and vicinity. To a certain extent this be- came necessary for those who desired to bathe there, as the police officers of the substation here were so vigilant that it be- peals decides, the case. “The transcript of the record on appeal must be filed within forty days from the date of the entry of the appeal, or, in ac- cordance with rule 14 of the Court of Appeals, the case may be docketed and dismissed. It is the duty of the counsel for the District to take advantage of this rule if the record is not filed within the time stated. An Alternative Motive. “Should the record be filed in time, how- ever, the District's attorneys ought im- mediately upon the coming in of the Court of Appeals submit an alternative motion to advance the case under rule 12, or for its dismissal under rule 15, section 2, which latter rule provides: “In order to prevent the abuse of the right of appeal, and to avoid vexatious de- lays, there may be united with a motion to dismiss the appeal a motion to affirm on the ground that, although the record may show that this court has jurisdiction of the case, it is manifest that the appeal was taken for delay only, or that the question on which the jurisdiction and right of re- view depends is so manifestly frivolous as not to require further argument; and in all cases of such motions there shall be filed a orief statement of the points or questions decided by the court below, and the ground vpon which the motion is made.’ “In connection with the general subject of street railway service, will The Siar please state wky the Commissioners have so fur failed to enforce the provisions of the act of Congress of August 2, 1894 (28 Stats., 218, sec. 5), waich requires that re- ciprocal transfer arrangements shall be made by every street railway company in the District whose lines connect, a& the public convenience may require? A rea- sonable reading of this law requires such transfers at New York avenue and 7th street, 7th and G streets, 15th street and New York avenue, and many other places in the District for the public convenience. I have heard it stated that the Commis- sioners may be called upon by a member of the next Congress to explain this. Are the Commissioners willing to admit that not orly the Eckingten company, but eaca of the street railway companies, is ‘more powerful, perhaps, than the Commission- ers?’ The particular business of the ex- ecutive of any government is to enforce the law. It is childish and a mere evasion of responsibility to say, as in these cases ef street railway defiance of the con- venience of the public and the express declarations of the legislature, that any person aggrieved may go into court for redress.

The result sought being for the benefit. of all, the expense should be came impossible for those who indulged in the sport in violation of law to evade ar- rest. & The services at the Anacostia M. E. Church Surday were conducted by Re’ Herndon Leech, who will supply Mr. Mc- Laren’s pulpit during July-and August. Mr. Leech rendered great satisfaction, and there were more strangers present at the night service than had been on a similar occasion in a long time. ——_— BRIGHTWOOD. Mr. C. W. Mattingly and family have moved from their residence on Brightwood avenue to the house formérly occupied by Mrs. Susan Jones, on Blair road, near Hotel Takoma. Mr. Mattingly has been a most respected citizen of this place for about ten years, He was but recently ap- pointed constable for this vicinity. Messrs. Burdette and Burroughs of Washington will immediately occupy the residence just vacated by Mr. Mattingly. The local Christian Endeavor Society held its regular meeting Sunday evening, before the church~ services, at Emory Chepel. Miss Jessie Brown of Flint street led, and gave a most interesting talk on “For Christ and the Church,” to which nearly all responded, making the meeting very successful and entertaining. The at- tendance was large, nearly all the members being present, besides several visitors. The society is conaidering the advisabilfty of giving a lawn party on the lawns of the church. Mrs. James E. Connelly, who has been quite sick for the last week, has rapidly recovered. ‘ -Mr. and Mrs. Calvin Witmer have left for Hagerstown, Md., for a three weeks’ stay with friends. Mr. and Mrs. Louis P. Shoemaker and son are spending a few days at Atlantic City. Mr. Chewning of Albemarle street,Bright- wood Park, is confined to his house with an attack of rheumatism. The last prayer meeting, held at the resi- dence of Mrs. McElwee of Flint street, was Perhaps the largest yet held. Mr. W. E. Nalley, who led the meeting, gave an in- teresting discourse on “Walking With Jesus.” It was discussed by all. Singing Was quite a feature of the evening. Among those present were Mr. and Mrs. Cook, Mrs. Grover, Mr. John G. Keene, Mrs, Sands, Mr. E. C. Gill and the Misses Gill, Miss Jessie Brown, Miss Ella Keene, Miss Effie Reynolds, Mr. and Mrs. Nalley, Miss Anna Nalley and others of SBrightwood; Mr. Trainer and others of Hamline.

The much- abused maxim, ‘An injury to one is the concern of all,’ has appropriate application to just such cases as these.” ————_ ELECTRIC LOCOMOTIVE. Test in Baltimore That is Regarded With Satisfaction. The electric locomotive which has been built to haul trains through the new Bal- timore and Ohio tunnel under a portion of Baltimore showed yesterday that it was capable of doing substantial work. The train that was made up was one of the regular freight trains, as follows: A con- solidation steam locomotive weighing 80 tons, 24 freight cars, loaded with coal and lumber; a yard engine, No. 50, weighing 50 tons, and an empty caboose. The electric locomotive took them all in’ one pull. This train reached the electric power house, south of Camden station, at 1:50 o'clock yesterday afternoon. ‘The electric locomotive was coupled to the train, and in 5 minutes and 20 seconds uncoupled at North avenue,having made the run through the tunnel, pulling steam locomotives freight cars, coal and lumber, a distance of 7,350 feet. or about 12-5 miles. The steam locomotive then resumed business and took the train to Philadelphia. A stop of three minutes was made by the electric locomotive, and then it was started back to the power station. The round trip was made in less than fifteen minutes. Having demonstrated that it is entitled to confidence in its abilities, the electric glant will be tried with similar trains every day. The number of trains pulled will be grad- ually increased until the electric locomo- tive assumes the pullirg of all the trains in che tunnel. ——_+e+______ MRS. STANFORD CRIPICISED For Proposing to Aid the University by the Sale of Brandy. The fact that Mrs. Leland Stanford, widow of the California Senator, will dis- pese of 1,000,000 gallons of brandy from her ranch for the benefit of the Stanford University is not pleasing to the clergy of Chicago. “Her excuse that it wil] be used for medicinal parposes is a mask,” declared the Rev. G. E. Mitchell of Calvary Pres- byterian Church. “A nice college, indeed, to send young men to! Do you think any professor would dare advocate temperance there? I most certainly would oppose send- ing any Christian youth to a college sup- ported by the sale of liquor.”” The matter was discussed at the min- isters’ meeting yesterday, and a resolution condemning Mrs. Stanford’s course was adopted. ——__-+e+_____ TYPESETTING MACHINE SALE. The Mergenthaler Absorbs the Rogers Typographic Company. Don M. Dickinson, representing the Mer- genthaler Linotype Company, paid to Col. Frank J. Hecker yesterday at Detroit in one check $415,000, which gave to the Mer- ganthaler people all right, title and interest of every name and nature in the patents on the machines of the Rogers Typograph- ic Compan: This ceal ends a long and hard-fought kgal battle which has lasted for many years. This deal will have no ef- fect on the users of the Rogers machines. All the indebtedness of the Rogers com- pany will be paid out of the money and the stockholcers will receive the baiance, amounting to about 10 cents on the dollar. —-+o-___ Died to Earn. Ten Cents. Daniel Smith, a nine-year-old boy, at Wichita, Kan., being in ill-health, his father] got a patent medicine to recuperate him. The boy had an aversion to medicine, and his father promised to give him a cent for every dose he would take. The boy went to where the medicine was and in his inno- Midsummer gatety here seems to be just now at full he‘ght, finding expression in various ways, among others a trip to the Great Falls, a distance of sixteen miles or more, a few days ago. The party, consist- ing of Mrs. Stockbridge, Mrs. Young, the Misses White, Ossire, Stockbridge, Hardt, | King, Torreyson, Gurley, Young, Morell, and McGowan, and Messrs. Harry Mitchell, G. E. Mitchell, Olcott, Mason, Hedrick, Young, Gurley and Evermann, left the vil- lage quite early in the morning in a num- ber of “‘fixes’’ (the vernacular for teams), spending the greater part of the day among the splendid scenery of the Falls. Quite a number, in charge of one of the chaperons, remained over night with “mine host’” Dickey, so well known to all frequenters of the place, returning the next day. All voted the trip a marked success. There was «nother villa; “dissipation” a night or two ago in the shape of a “straw ride’ to the grounds of the Semin- ary near Alexandria, participated in by most of the younger folk of the community. After a delightful ride, followed by an in- formal supper under the old trees, home was reached at a seasonable hour. Mr. Harry Olcott ertertained a large number of “Carlinites” at an informal pro- gressive euchre party last night, which was much enjoyed by all the participants. Four- teen games were played, which, with the recess for refreshments, caused the evening to pass most pleasantly until nearly the midnight hour. Some of those playing were the Misses Stockbridge, King, White, Ossire, Gurley, Hardt and Pennywit, and Messrs. Mason, Young, Robert Mitchell, Stockbridge, Harry Mitchell and Olcott. Miss Hardt left this morning for her home at Wellsboro, Pa., much to the regret of her many friends the village, who wish he- “bon voyage,” and a return to Carlins in the near future. —_.__ = VIENNA. While Mr. James Watson was returning from Washington in his milk wagon a few nights ago he was stopped on the Gravel road near the residence of Rev. G. H. Williams, a short distance from Annan- dale, by two colored men, who, with pis- tols pointed at him, ordered him to get out of the wagon. As Mr. Watson was un- armed he was compelled to comply. The rascals then demanded Mr. Watson's money, and when told he had none, they hastily felt his pockets, but finding none allowed him to proceed on his journey. He had $40 about him which they failed to discover. As soon as he became free Mr. Watson went to the nearest farm house to borrow a gun, intending to, if possible, overtake and capture the would-be robbers, but was unable to secure a weapon. The authorities of Fairfax county intend to use every means in their power to arrest the miscreants. |The services at the Presbyterian Church, Vienna, Sunday night last were conducted by Mr. H. C.
