Sir Darneille s version of Col. Jud

ham was particularly Interesting in
iew of Judson's testimony that he
fought the appointment until he was con
vinced that Commissioners Rudolph and
Johnston were determined to make it.
and that he then withdrew hi opposi
tion as a matter of policy, because of
Ingham's relationship with Senator Gal
linger Uiintcs from Com e mat ion.
InKham was appointed in November
and Darneille recalled the date of his
conversation nlth Judson as late in
September In part Mr Darneille a ver
sion of the conversation was as follows:
"I -went in and saw Col Judson He
said 'Darneille. I have Just written a
letter to Senator Oalllngcr in which I
told him I hoped Ingham would be ap
pointed I Just want to tell vou thK
give oj one tip jou had better use all
the pressure jou can on Mr Rudolph.
because I am very much afraid he is
not going to bring Mr Ingham s name in
'I think Mr Ingham Is tho logical
man for the appointment as superintend
ent of insurance, and I am verj much In
ior of his appointment.

HOUSE PASSES
Sheppard Resolution Appro

Minns Ball Feature.
RECEPTION IS OPPOSED
Fight on Plan to Hold Celebration in
Capitol May Develop in Senate.
Decision Up to Congress.
Following the passage yesterday by the
House of the Sheppard Joint resolution,
minus its provision authorizing the use
of the Pension BulISlng for the Inaugural
ball. It Is expected that Congress to-day
will take formal action regarding the
proposed Inaugural reception, to be held
In the Capitol. Renresentattve Fitzger
ald, chairman of the House Appropria
tions Committee, yesterday announced
from the floor of tho Houso that his
committee would report out an appro
priation bill providing for the defravlng
of the expenses of the reception. It Is
understood that the appropriations com
mittee has practically agreed upon the
resolution of Representative Sherley of
Kentucky authorizing an appropriation
of S30.000 and the use of the Capitol for
the reception.
Indications are that there will be an in
augural reception at the Capitol under
Congressional direction. The citizens'
inaugural committee at Its meeting yes
terdaj. put the issue squarely up to
Congress
Thomas Nelson Page, chairman of the
reception committee, jesterday Informed
Inaugural committee that his com
mittee stood ready to assume tho direc
tion of the reception, provided the Joint
Congressional committee did not wish to
assume charge He also manifested the
willingness of his committee to assist
the Congressional committee In every
possible was in rase It decided to take
charge of the reception.
Opposition in far nf Cnpltnl.
The Sheppard resolution, as passed by
the House, recommends an appropria
tion of KlflW. half of which Is to !
appropriated from the funds of the Dis
trict for the maintenance of order, and
the preservation of liro and property.
The rectlon of stands Is provldid for

Commissioner the Superintendent of
Public Hull. lines and Grounds, the su
perintendent of the CapMol Ilulldlng. and
the Secretary of War The Commiclon
ers are authorized to designate the places
where the stands are to be erected
Late vesterdaj afternoon Indications
pointed that strong opposition was de
veloping against the use of the Capitol
for the receptbn Senator Martlne, who
has been an -irtive supporter of the plan
lor a Capitol reception, has not fully de
rided whether or not he will Introduce
his resolution In the Senate He said last

Introduce it and allow the matter to be

The committee decided to return the

REPLIES TO SUIT
General Denial f of .Allegations of
Thomas L. Hume Made by the
Washington Gaslight Co.
The Washington Gas tight Company
yesterday made a general denial of all
the material allegations made in the suit
of Thomas L. Hume, who seeks the dis
tribution of 3.S5D shares of Georgetown
Gas Light Company stock among the
stockholders of the former corporation.
Justice Barnard heard arguments on
the motion to appoint a receiver for the
jju snares of stock, and took tho ques
tion under advisement.
Arguments on the merits of the case
were deferred until the Individual de
fendants have filed their answers. The
charge Is made that the suit is not In
stltuted In good faith, and the contention
Is made that the purchase and owner
ship of the 3,530 shares was in accord'
ance with the charter rights of the cor
poration, and that Congress has known
of the transaction since 1907, and has vlr
tuilly approved of the situation.
The claim is advanced that the two
corporations are not essentially rivals or
competitors, and that tho Washington
Gas Light Company manufactures gas at
less cost, and, therefore. Is able to have
cheaper rates than are charged by the
Georgetown corporation. This declara
tion Is made in answer to Mr. Hume's
contention that cheaper rates would be
possible through the co-operation of the
two companies.
GUN-TOTING PERMIT?
NO SUCH ANIMAL
Anyway, Clerk Sebring, of the Police
Court, Says There Isn't High
waymen, You Should Worry.
Clerk Frank Sebrlng, of the Police
Court, declares it Is almost as difficult
for a citizen of the District to procure
a written permit to carry a revolver In
the streets of Washington for protection
against the thugs and highwaymen, who
have ben terrorizing the National Cap
ital of late, as It is to pass through
the eye of tbe proverbial needle.
Probably the most startling fact re
vealed by Mr. Sebrlng was that there
Is not at this time a single citizen in
the District in possession of a permit
from the Judges of the Police Court to
earn a weapon Persons earrjlng guns
rlthout such a permit are liable to prose
ution for law violation
Around tbe Police Court, it Is said
that Congress some dai may enact a
law permitting an honest, respectable.

life and person, or miy appropriate
