They Can Prescribe Their Location and Size—Points Brought Out by a Telegraph Co.'s Application. As stated in Wednesday’s Star, the at- torney for the District has rendered an opinion upon the application of the Western Union Telegraph Company to run a line of wires along the south side of Princeton street between 9th and 14th streets, hold- ing that while the company has the right to make the connection it has not the right to select the route, that authority being only vested in the Commissioners. This decision is in direct opposition to the contention of the company, which claimed the right to erect poles and string wires along any post road, in accordance with the decision of the court in the Hew- ett case. = The attorney's opinion says: “This application being for the erection of telegraph poles and overhead wires outside the limits of the city of Washington is not governed by the act of Congress approved July 18, 1888 (25 Stat., 323), prohibiting ad- ditional overhead wires after September 15, 1888. : “The claim of the Western Union Tele- graph Company, as represented by Mr. Marean, is that having accepted the pro- visions of the act of Congress approved July 24, 1866, known as the ‘national tel- egraph act,’ it has the right to select the highway in this District outside the city of Washington in which it will erect poles and string wires thereon. The Hewett Case. “Mr. Marean cites Hewett v. Telegraph Company (4 Mackey, 424), wherein the gen- eral term of the Supreme Court of the Dis- trict of Columbia refused an injunction to prevent the Western Union company from erecting, in 1886, a line of poles and wires on west 7th street in the city of Washington. “Hewett's case does not prove that a tele- graph company by merely accepting the pro- visiofis of the national telegraph act may, without the consent of the Commissioners, erect telegraph poles and overhead wires as it pleases in the public highways of the Dis- trict. Judge Merrick, in Hewett’s case, af- ter examining the question whether the tele- graph act of 1866 was qualified by the joint resolution of Congress of March 3, 1863, and holding that it was not, and also that the Western Union Telegraph Company, in vir- tue of the act of 1866, had the right to ex- tend Its lines along the streets and avenues of Washington, because post roads within the meaning of that act, at page 437, used very careful language. “So that, while the court held the Western Union company had the right to extend its lines along 7th street, yet that the right was ‘subject to reasonable control by the Com- missioners of the District, whose duty it is to control the exercise of any right within the District,under the general police powers, which they exert for the public good in such matters.’ Which means that the right of the Western Union Telegraph Company to erect poles and overhead wires in this Dis- trict is subject to regulation by the Commis- sioners in the exercise of the police power, which, as was said by Judge Merrick, ‘they exert for the public good in respect of such matters.’ “Congress, by the telegraph act of 1866, sought to regulate commercial intercourse among the states. That act, as was held by the Supreme Court of the United States in Pensacola Telegraph Co. agt. Western Union Telegraph Co. (96 U. S., 1), is appro- priate legislation to execute the power-of Congress over the postal service. But the act was never intended, as respect tele- graph companies accepting its provisions, to exempt them from the exercise of the police power. ‘Notwithstanding,’ says Drummond, jus- tice, in Western Union Telegraph Co. ugt. Chicaso (16 Fed. Rep., 309), ‘telegrapnic lines may be an instrument of commerce, a municipal corporation has the right to de- termine how, in what manner, and upon what condition a telegraph company shall enter and pass through it for the purpose cf allowing the citizens of the country to com- municate one with another by telegraph." The Right of Regulation. “While the Commissioners may not pro- hibit the Western Union Telegraph Com- pany from erecting poles in highways out- side the city of Washington, they may regu- late the exercise of the company’s right; they may designate the street or road to be occupied by the poles; they may locate the poles, and prescribe their size and height. But. they would not have the right to say that the Western Union company should string its wires on the poles of some other company. This could only be done with che consent of the other company, assuming it would be practicable to do so. “My opinion is the Western Union Tele- graph Company Is entitled to erect poles and string wires thereon (outside the city limits) for the purpose of connecting the braach office it proposes to establish with its main office, the route, location, size and height of poles to be approved by the Commissioa- ers.”” ——— Grand Lodge Election.

Those from this city who attended the Christian Endeavor convention held in Bos- ton last July had many pleasant experiences during their journey to and from the con- vention city, ds well as during their stay at the Hub, These pleasant days will be re- called and the friendships then formed re- newed at a dinner to be given this evening at Freund’s banquet hall. After a substan- tial menu has been disposed of, Norman T. Elliott, in the role of toastmaster, and Percy S. Foster, as assistant toastmaster, will pro- ceed to conduct that portion of the evening's entertainment which deals with the re- counting of the many delightful exper!- ences of the pilgrims. “The Beauties of the Hub'’will be expatiat- ed upon byMiles M.Shand;Miss Zue Brockett will recite; Elphonzo Youngs, jr., will render a.cornet solo; Miss Mattie Bartlett will sing; Hermon C. Metcalf will tell “How It Felt to Be Left at Home;” Percy S.

HOPE A Well-Known Charity Files Incor- poration Papers. The board of managers who have for some time past been conducting the Hope and Help Mission have sent today to the re- corder’s office incorporation papers to be filed. The following are named as the in- corporators: Mr. Thomas Jarvis, Mr. Ja: I. Petty, Dr. Geo. W. N. Custis, Dr. Geo. N. Perry, Mr. Alfred Wood and Mr. Wm. H. McKnew, and Mrs. 8, D. La Fetra, Mrs. M. BE. Catlin, Mrs, L. 1. Knowles, Mrs. B. 8. Luckett and Miss Mary Rector. The object of the association is stated as being “‘to fur- nish a temporary hoffie for homeless, friend- less, helpless, unfortunate, fallen arid dis- sipated women and girls; to bring them un- der religious and reformatory influences ‘while they shall be Inmates of such home.” The association will also care for helpless infants and children as far as practicable, especially while the mothers of such chi dren are in the home or require its benefi- cent aid. A meeting of the incorporatoi was held at the mission rooms last evening, at which the revised constitution was adopted, and officers elected, as follows: President, Mrs.8.D. La Fetra; corresponding secretary, Mrs. Belle S. Luckett; recording secretary, Mrs. M, B. Catlin; treasurer, Mr. Thomas Jarvis. A finance committee, con- sisting Of the gentlemen incorporators, was elected, and the home management commit- tee, who are intrusted with the internal work of the mission, was elected, which in- cluded all the ladies of the incorporation. Dr. George N. Perry was elected attending physician. A larger house is greatly de- sired, and the finance committee was re- quested to secure such a building at a rental of from $50 to $60 per month. The board expressed deep gratitude to the charitable people of Washington, especially to business men, who have given provisions, clothing or money to this charity. Many incidents of outraged and wronged woman- hood and childhood are appealing to the mission every week, some of which would arouse pity and indignation in the stoutest heart. The mission is located at 604 H street. — AMUSEMENTS. Boston Symphony Orchestra.—The un- comfort@ble weather last night did not have any effect in keeping people away from Metzerott Hall, which was filled with an audience representing the kest of Wash- ington’s fashionable and musical society. It was the first of this.season’s serics of concerts by the Boston Symphony Orches- tra, and the esteem in which this admira- ble organization is held was manifested by the warm welcome given to Conductor Pauer when he made his first appear: and by the close attention paid to eve number on the program. Mr. Pauer’s read- ing of the Heroic Beethoven Symphony not out of the beaten track, and the per- formance by the orchestra was the same as given under Nikisch, improved some- what, perhaps, in the precision of attack and uniform solidity of the chords with which this symphony abounds. In fact, there is in all the playing of the orchestra a noticeable improvement in harmonious work, more perfect movement in accord- ance with the conductor’s will, that un- doubtedly comes from long association of the players together, and, perhaps, from the feeling that Mr. Pauer dominates and holds them by reason of his ripe musical scholarship and his ability to infuse into his force a portion of his own power. In the symphony the Funeral March, which was written to commemorate the death of Napoleon at St. Helena, was perhaps the most impressive, although each movement has its peculiar beauty, and all were per- formed with that degree of perfection only attainable by the Boston Symphony Or- chestra. The two selections from Berlioz’s “Damnation of Faust’—the “Minuet of the sps” and “Waltz of Sylphs dainty and weird in their treatment, were admirably executed, and if encores had been allowed the last would surely have been repeated. The final number was Waz- ner’s “Emperor's March,” which sent the audience away with all {ts sound and fury ringing in thelr ears. Sig. Campanari was the soloist, giving two numbers—the me logue from “Falstaff” and the prologue from “I Pagliacci”—in splendid form. Poth selections were suited to bis rich, resonant baritone voice, and his delivery was made with expression and dramatic force. New National Theater.—Olga_Nethersole last night appeared in the only Shakespear- ian role of her engagement in Washington. Her repertoire fs a list of triumphs, and the keroine whom she portrayed last night ts one of her best and most satisfying char- acters. Her Juliet has all the gentle sweet- ness of girlhood, and with it the depth of poetic passion whose realization has heen the ambition of the gr t actre: She is ethereal and yet ensuous. is a creature of powerful emotions, and yet of fine intellectual quality. ‘Th ance was prolonged to a most unreaso! hour, but the audience remained till the close. The supporting majority of cases, was demands of a we scenic display was much more than usual in connection with this play. elaborate See A Prosperous I. 0. 0. F. Lodge.
