EXTENSION OF THE CONDUITS | Revival of Acute Issue Between Rival Corporations. REVIEW OF SITUATION An important opinion, which may have the effect of reopenir.g the war between the rival electric lighting companies, was ren- dered by the attorney for the District this morning. This opinion was called forth by the ap- plication of the United States Electric Lighting Company for a permit to con- struct an underground conduit from 9th and K streets to Columbia Heights, out 9th street. Attorney Thomas decides the United States company has the right to select its routes, and that the Commis- sioners cannot refuse the permit. Congress at its last session gave the United States company authority to ex- tend its conduits to Mount Pleasant, Wash- ington Heights and Columbia Heights, and nothing was thought of the proposition until it was discovered that the proposed reute paraileled the conduits of the Poto- mac Electric Power Company out th street. It then became apparent that the United States company was continuing its fight aginst its rival, by laying plans to build a conduit along the route already oc- cupied by the Potomae company, with a view, probably, of underbidding it at the next letting of street lighting. Attorneys Protested. The attorneys of the Potomac company took warning, and simultaneously with the filing of the application came a protest with the request that before any action should be taken the Potomac company he permutted to file a brief. Then it was the Commissioners sent the ation to the attorney for the Dis with instructions to advise the f any, they had in the prem- > application. s reter aS made, the ‘Ys of both co: began io file with the attorney, and for over a it is declared, there wus nothing but briefs to cecupy his attention.

Power Over a Location Only. “In the brief of counsel for the United States Eelectric Lighting Company it contended that the Commissioners have nothing to do with the matter, except to regulate the location of the conduits in the street or pavement, the depth of the conduit beneath the surface, or subway to be laid, and the location of manholes.

If anybody has what you wish, you will get an answer. erection and control of the Commissioners. He insists that the proposed extension 1s unnecessary, and that the discretion of the Commissioners should be exercised against it because if allowed it would parallel the conduits of the Potomac Electric Power Company. “The question involved in this applica- tion is one not without difficulty. It is whether, in view of the words, in the act of 18a, ‘under such regulations as the Commi. * © * may prescribe,’ the Commis may designate the streets in which the United States Electric Light- ing Company may extend its conduits and wires, whether they, and not the Electric Lighting Company, may determine what conduits and wires it may extend, or whether those words were intended to refer to matters of detail, such, for exampie, as the location, depth of the conduits, repair of pavements, and other such matters. “The act of 1896 does not in terms confer CASTORIA Infants a cuniee SEE THAT THE FAC-SIMILB SIGNATURE OF Chas.

The United Hlectrie Lighting Company has un- rground conduits and wires in 9th street. Those conduits and wires are its property, and it asks permission of the Commission- crs to open the streets that it may extend these conduits ard wires to the three sub- States a t impression of this subject was at the Cornmissioners had the right to designate the streets in which the United 3 Electric Lighting Company might end its conduits and wires, under the act of 1896. The expression by Congress in its acts Bf March 3 and June 4, 1897, of its purpose to provide a conduit’ system, taken in connection with the power con- ferred upon the Commissieners to pre- seribe regulations in respect of the au- therized extensions under the act of 1896, it seemed to me left with the Commission- ers the designation of the streets in which the extensions might be made, but on a closer reading of the statutes, and of the broad grant in the act of 1896—‘and the United States Electric Lighting Company may extend its underground conduits and wires east of Rock creek and. within said fire limits’—corfirmed, as it is, by the acts of March 3 ana June 4, 1997, I am satisfied the United States Electric Lighting Com- pany is entitle {to extend its conduits and wires in 9th street to Columbia Heights, and that it is not within the discretion of the Commissioners to refuse its applica- tion.” 6 =e Mrs. Royston’s Cross Bill. EX-DEPUTY FARRALL Much Surprise Expressed at the Charges Against Him, Prominent as a Democratic Politician in Lower Maryland—Expected to Appear to Answer. The case of T. Richard Farrall, ex-deputy collector of internal revenue for the Dis- trict, charged with extortion, as published exclusively in The Star yesterday, caused a complete surprise to Mr. Farrall's many friends, both here and in Charles county, Md., where he Myes Witnesses in the case were heard by the prosecuting at- torney before the warrant was issued, and although the writ-sworn out by Lizzie Clay- ton yesterday was the only warrant issued it is stated that additional charges will probably be filed when the case reaches the Police Court or the grand jury. The other women in the “Division” from whom it is charged he extorted money will be summoned to file the additional complaints. In swearing out the warrant yesterday a mistake way made in the name, the clerx writing it Farrarr instead of Farrall. To- day this mistake was rectified. The warrant now in the hards for the arrest of the ex-deputy collector charges that the defendant being a revenue officer of the United States “did knowingly de- mand and receive a greater sum than au- thorized by law for a certain internal reve- nue tax stamp, the legal rate therefor be- S4, and he, the said defendant, de- and collected from the said Clay- ton the sum of $37.50." Significant Developments. Women who live in the “Division” have been complaining for a long time about the large amounts of money they had to pay for the internal revenue stamps, but it was not until recently that the proper office heard of their complaints. The fact that the women who conduct these houses pay an internal revenue tax, it is stated, shows how many speakeasies are conducted in that section for which no prosecutions are made. The District has not licensed these places for ral years, and it 1s stated the internal revenue showing is an evidence of the number of violations of the retail liquor law that are committed. Yesterday afternoon, when the warrant was issued, detectives went to the Balti- more and Potomac depot expecting to find Mr. Farrall taking the 4:36 train for his home, but they learned that he had not heen in the city yesterday. Prominent as a Politician, While holding the office here Deputy Col- lector Farrall made the trip between La Plata and this city every day, and it was thought he had probably come here yes- terday. This morning the detectives learn- ed that Mr. Farrall was at his home at La Piata, and friends of the ex-deputy collector expect he will come here and answer the charge made against him. Mr. Farrall, as stated in yesterday's Star, lives at La Plata, the seat of Charles coun- ty, and he is probably better known in southern Maryland than is any other resi- dent of the lower counties. He is one of the democratic leaders of the county, and a man of considerable influence. Should he not come here aud surrender to the authorities the case will be presented be- fore the grand jury, and should an in- dictment be found a bench warrant for his arrest will be issued. Upon such a writ he could be arrested in Maryland and brought here, but it is stated a Police Court warrant would not serve this purpose. ee Fifty-six arrests were made by the police BNE Twelve v4 the victims were fe- males. be 9 Washington, Kindergarten Club, which met yesterday’‘afternoon at the Kin- dergarten Normal Institute, 1426 Q street, ehtertained as’ {ts guest the sculpturess, Mrs. Micou Heldemarin, who gave a demon- stration in clay. ‘Among those present were the wife of Senator Mitchell and her daughter and Mrs. Belva Lockwood.

Friday evening a social and fraternal reception will be held at Scottish Rite Hall. Only members of the traternity will be permitted to attend this. Kemoval of Headquarters. It is thought that there fs so much, and so important, business to be transacted, that the sessions may continue until Sat- urday. The mcst important question which is to be decided by the council is whether or not the headquarters of the Grand Orient of the order shall be removed to Washing- ton. New York has been its location since 1807. A large number of the members of the orkr favor the removal. They think that the head of the nation is the proper place from which to direct Masonic jurisdic- tion. Another matter is the consideration of the change of the titles of the officers and subordinate bodies of the order. George Gibson of Washington is chairman of this committee.
