Contention Over Provision of Law
Regarding Water Rents.
QUESTION BEFORE COMMISSIONERS
ProtestAgainst Interpretation Made
by the District Registrar.
STATEMENT IN DEFENSE
Two interpretations of the schedule of
the water rents fixed by the District Com
missioners, March 17 of this year, have
just been laid Defore that body. One of
these Interpretations Is in the nature of n
strong protest against the practice of the
water registrar, alleged to have been In
augurated under ihe new schedule. In
treating every pri'.'ate dwelling as a tene
ment house, where one or more rooms ma>
be rented by the tenant or owner, and u
charge of 50 cents ridded to the water bill
for each room alleged to be rented.
The protest is filed b> Messrs. Britton &
Gray, attorneys. In answer to this. Water
Registrar Green has submitted in writing
his understanding of the schedule, embrac
ing his right to make such a charge.
The subject of the protest by Britton &
Gray has also been a cause of individual
complaint on the part of many tenants and
owners, who have been charged additional
amounts this year to cover rooms rented
by them.
The schedule of water rates under which
the charge is .made, is as follows.
"The rate for domestic purposes will be
charged according to stories and front
feet. On ail tenements two stories high,
with a front width of sixteen feet or less.
?{.50 per annum. For each additional
front foot, or fraction thereof. 23 cents.
For each additional story or part thereof,
one-third of the charges as computed
above
"Boarding and tenement houses will be
charged at a rate in accordance with the
stories and front feet, and in addition
thereto 50 cents per annum for each and
every room over and above the number
of three rooms in said boarding house or
tenement."
Term Tenement House Defined.
The definition of a tenement house is
given in the communication of Britton &
Gray. It Is taken from the American and
English Encyclopedia of Law, which is de
clared by them to be the legal interpreta
tion. as follows:
"Tenement houses, French fiats, apart
ment houses: The word 'tenement* in the
sense here used signifies 'a house or home
stead,' or 'rooms let in a house.' The com
pound word tenement-house' must, there
fore. signify a house with distinct tene
ments or homes which separate, and dif
ferent families or persons occupy as ten
ants. as distinguished from boarding houses
or hotels where the occupancy is not one
of tenancy, but that of boarders or guests."
In commenting on this definition Messrs.
Britton & Gray say: "This practical and
settled definition has apparently hitherto
controlled in applying the foregoing sched
ule of water rates, until the present fiscal
year, when a new and novel departure
therefrom has been inaugurated. ? ? ?
This has resulted in individual injustice In
many thousands of cases, some of which
are now brought to our attention, where
many private families occupying small
dwellings have rented one or more rooms,
not as distinct tenements or homes which
separate or distinct families or persons
occupy as tenants, but as part of the same
family occupation, and where there is
necessarily common use of the water fa
cilities for which the 'domestic rates' are
charged and paid.
Held to He TCot Justified.
"This innovation Is not justified, first, by
the language or meaning of your regula
tion; nor, second, by the legal definition
thereof, nor. again, by any consideration
of simple justice. Its enforcement against
ten previous years of directly opposite
practice will injure many persons of lim
ited means, whose occupation of modest
dwellings is made possible in thousands of
instances by renting one or more rooms to
individuals, whose occupancy and use of
the water facilities of the dwelling Is
wholly in common with the family of the
tenant or small owner, and in no possible
manner a separate tenement or home.
"The regulation should hence be applied
now as it has always been hitherto, and
we respectfully submit that the water reg
istrar and the collector of taxes should be
immediately so advised, in order that bills
may be properly correcteel and this plainly
unjust charge upon dwelling house occu
pants may not be imposed."
Water Registrar's Position.
The communication of Water Registrar
Green, which defines his position in impos
ing the charge, is as follows:
"1 have the honor to report that a clause
in the act of June 2. 185ft, of the legislative
assembly, prescribed as followsw: 'Hotels
and boarding houses shall. In addition to
the regular annual water rate for private
families, as prescribed in the twenty-fourth
section of this act. be charged for each
1 bedroom for boarders e>r lodgers within the
same the sum of 50 cents.' It would ap
pear from this act that the intent was to
charge for each and every bed room rented
out.
"This regulation has since been varied to
cover a broader field, and we find the fol
lowing language in the last revision of the
schedule of rates adopted by the Commis
sioners December 2<>, 1800: 'Boareling, i
apartment and tenement houses shall be j
charged at a rate In accordance with the
stories and front feet and In addition there
to 50 cents per annum for each and every
room over and above the number of three |
rooms in the said boarding, apartment or
tenement house.'
"The practice of charging for rooms has !
been in vogue since the inception of the
water department, but until the re-exami
nation of the entire District was begun. No
vember. 1000, the department was without
knowledge of a majority of houses which
rented out rooms. At this period the ques
tion was ralse*d as to whether or not, where
a private famiiy rented out a room or more,
the regulation should be enforced to the
letter, and such houses charged for all
rooms above three, or only charged for the
actual number sublet. The matter was
referred to the Engineer Commissioner,
who directed the office in such cases to
! charge only for the number of rented
rooms.
"The words 'boarding, apartment and ten
ement' in the schedule are broad enough to
cover each and every case where rooms
are sublet, and the only point remaining in
doubt is whether the office shall continue
to place a liberal construction ,upon the
said regulation or take it as found and
charge for all rooms above three."

KERNAN'S LYCEUM THEATER.?If
fternan's Lyceum Theater maintains for
the remainder of the present season the
high standard set by the show that opened
the house last week and Clark's New
Royal Burlesquers which are fulfilling an
engagement this week at that cosy play
house Its success for this year la not hard
to predict. Clark's New Royals are a
thoroughly up-to-date aggregation of un
usual excellence, and the entermalnment
put up by them drew two packed houses
yesterday afternoon and evening. All of
the turns In the olio are above the average,
while some of them are of such unquestion
able merit as to call for special praise.
Lew H. Carroll and Maude Elllsten, well
known In this city, open the olio with a
curious mix-up of song, rapid-fire talk and
dancing. Both are clever, and the act
goes with a rush. Burgess, Smith and
Burger display their prowess In an acro
batic turn, with a whirlwind finish that
took the house by storm. Llllie English,
billed as specially imported from England
by Manager Clark, sang a number of bal
lads that pleased her auditors, and Fields
and Wooley, the well-known German dia
lect comedians, gave vent to some new
German "loose talk" that proved .entertain
ing and humorous. Leslie and Rhlnehart in
troduce some of the new songs of the sea
son in a decidedly clever way, and dance
with spirit and skill. Coulter and Starr,
who are as well known, perhaps, as any
other team on the vaudeville stage as black
face comedy artists, presented a turn that
abounded In good songs and excellent dances,
and Bedinl and Arthur, another English im
portation of Manager Clark's, put up a
juggling turn that has not been equaled
on Kernan's stage for many seasons. A
comedy element Is added to the more diffi
cult work of Bedinl by Arthur, and the
latter's antics were sufficient to keep the
house in a roar during most of the time
he was on the stage. The burlesque which
brings the show to a close is a new one
by Lew Carroll. It Is most effectively
staged and handsomely costumed, while
there are a score of pretty girls, half a
dozen good comedians, new songs and
dances and. In fact, almost everything that
goes to make the successful modern bur
lesque. It Is entitled "Off to Buffalo," the
first scene depicting the gay company In
the Grand Central railroad station in New
York, the second carrying them to the
Pen-American expostion. The fun furnish
ed Is of an unusually clean variety, and
there Is enough of it to keep the skit going
with a rush from the time the curtain
rises until it falls again.

the crowning of the queen and her attend
ant maids will take place in the big danc
ing pavilion at night. The coronation ball
will follow, and dancing will be kept up
until an early hour Wednesday morning.

attend the steamers Samuel J. Pentz and
Estelle Randall will make trips at 1<> a.m.,
2:15, 4:30 and 6:4."i p.m., and the last boat
will leave River View at p.m. Stops
will be made at Alexandria on all trips ex

NEW SPEED:-REGULATIONS
i
BIGHT OP COMSMSIOfERS TO MAKE
EXCEMPTIOSS.
Opinion bj Attorney Oavall Approv*
lng Exemption of Aobalancei and
Street Cnr Eme^genciea.
In response to tha^ recant request of the
District Commissioners for a legal opinion
on the proposed new speed regulations for
municipal vehicles, Attotney A. B. Duvall
has responded with an approval of the
regulations with two slight amendments.
The new regulations provide that:
"\ ehlcles of the police, fire, health and
water departments and hospital ambulances
shall have the right of way in the streets
over all others, and the sounding of the
bell or gong thereon shall constitute a
warning and direction to other vehicles and
pedestrians to clear the road. In cases
wherein the emergency Is so great that
more than ordinary speed is required to
save human life or to prevent great Incon
?'enA^nce to the public, the regulations
limiting the speed of vehicles shall not be
deemed to apply to the vehicles above
named nor to those of the street railway
companies called to make urgent repairs."
? Attorney Dnvall's Views.
The attorney's comments on the matter
are as follows:
"You direct my attention to the pro
visions of section 12 of the act of Congress
approved July lKni, commonly known
as the 'peace and order act,' suggesting
that therein Congress appears to have leg
islated upon the general pubject."
The section referred to is the general pro
vision against excessive speed.
"I am of the opinion that these (munici
pal) vehicles are not and were not intended
to be within the purview of said act of
Congress. By act of Congress approved
June 2t>, 18S7, the Commissioners were au
thorized-to make police regulations (arrtong
other things) 'to regulate the movement of
vehicles on the public streets and avenues
for the preservation of order and the pro
tection of life and limb.'
"By its joint resolution approved Febru
ary 20, 18SI2, CongTess authorized the Com
missioners to make and enforce police regu
lations necessary for the protection of
'lives, limb, health, comfort and quiet of
all persons, and the protection of all prop
erty within the District of Columbia."
"Our Court of .Appeals, In Railroad Com
pany agt. District of Columbia, sustained
the police regulation requiring steam rail
road trains to be stopped before crossing
other railroads operated by steam, cable or
electricity, and held that while railroad lo
comotives and cars were not vehicles with
in l..c meaning of the act of June 2i!, 1887.
that the Commissioners nevertheless were
authorized to make the regulation under
the grant of powers contained in the Joint
resolution, saying, among other things,
'that it was clear that Congress intended
thereby to increase the powers of the Com
missioners to the full extent of those fre
quently, if not generally, intrusted to mu
nicipal corporations.'
A SnppoHeil Difficulty.
"The difficulty suggested in your com
munication, I take it, arises from the fact
that the 'peace and order act' was enacted
after the joint resolution, and that there
fore Congress has apparently chosen to ex
ercise Its undoubted right to legislate itself
upon the subject. This supposed difficulty,
however, in my judgment, is more apparent
than real. Did Congress legislate upon the
same subject matter? It is true the lun
guage ?n said section Is general: 'That It
shall not be lawful for any person or per
sons to ride or drive any animal of the
horse kind at a greater speed than eight
miles per hour.' But was Congress legis
lating upon the subject of the speed of mu
nicipal vehicles and vehicles of the kind
described in your proposed regulations?
"It is a well settled and elementary rule
of statutory construction that .a thing
which is within the letter of the statute is
not within the statute unless it be also
within the meaning of the legislature.

'peace and order act' would not receive a
'sensible construction' it It Was held to be
without exceptions and Intended to em
brace vehicles of- the class described In
your proposed reflation.
"I am of the opinion that the Commis
sioners have the authority to make this
regulation.
"I would suggest that line three of the
regulation be amended so as to read 'In
and upon highways, streets, avenues and
alleys over all other vehicles,' and that
there be added to line seven the words
*to preserve property or prevent its de
struction.' Otherwise the draft seems to
be in good form."
HANCOCK REGIMENT,
Enthusiastic Meeting of the Union
Veterans' Union.
Hancock Regiment, No. 1, Union Veter
ans' Union, held an unusually interesting
meeting at its hall, corner 6th and Q
streets northwest, last night. Col. Franklin
T. Howe presiding. After the muster the
commander-in-chief and his staff were an
nounced and were received with due honor.
Under the good of the order Gen. R. Q.
Dyrenforth. the commander-in-chief of the
order, made an address, telling of his re
cent trip through the Btate of Illinois
and the enthusiasm of the veterans of that
state, who are forming regiments in al
most every town. He spoke of the rapid
increase of the order, particularly in the
city of Chicago, in which it is expected ten
regiments will be formed by the date of the
national encampment, which will be held
there the latter part of October. He also
referred to the growth in Ohio and of the
Invitations he had received to attend re
unions of veterans in that state.
He was followed by Capt. I*. L. Street,
former commander-in-chief, who has Just
returned from the Philippines, where he
has served for two years as captain and
commissary of subsistence, who said that
even while he was far beyond the seas he
had kept in touch with his comrades here,
and he'rejoiced at the great growth of
the order. He said that the idea of the old
soldier being a back number was refuted
by the fact that all the prominent leaders
in the army, such as Otis, MacArthur,
Lawton, ^Vheaton and a host of others
were veterans of the war of the rebellion
and how well they had performed their
duty in the Spanish-American war the
country knew.
Addresses were also delivered by Gen.
J. F. Meacham, division commander; Gen.
A. M. Legg, pa?t division commander; Mr.
E. W. Oyster, Capt. D. W. Beach and Capt.
D. W. Glassie.
