Owners of vault privileges In the Dis trict will havo to pay an annual rental to the District government if a bill which Is before the District committee of the Senate becomes a law. In a favorable report, the Commissioners suggest several changes in the bill and urge the need of Its adoption. If tho bill becomes a law, persons who use the spuce under sidewalks will have to pay rental. In a number of Instances the District hus actually been put to expense be cause of these vaults, and by reason of the caving In of parts of streets which vaults are under, actions for damages have been brought against tha local government. A formula for the assessment of the rental is provided In the bill. As this stands now, with suggested changes by the Commissioners, the amount of tho rental Is to be obtained by taking the number of square feet In the nrea of the vault or excavation, multiplying It by the value per square foot of the ad Joining property as assessed, and then, taking one-half of one per cent of this. No rental Is to be less than J5. however. The tr.easura la to go Into effect No vember 1 next If passed. It is doubt ful, however, if It can be acted on until next scs&lon. The Commissioners say the District will derive considerable revenue from this source If the measure Is passed. LOCAL MENTION. Electric Webster. Where? Julius Caesar. Com on Cob.
