INCREASE OP FIREMEN'S PAY Estimates for Next Fiscal'Year to Bo Scaled Down to Come Within the Eevenuos Attornoy General OIney'a Figures for Maintenance of Employes at Courthouso. The Commissioners ore estimating for nn appropriation of 6190,000 for tho use of the street cleaning department for tho year 1890. Tho cost of this department nnturally in creases year by year, and the estimate has now reached the point when, in tho estima tion of the board, stops should bo taken to diminish tho expenditure if possible, and at the same timo maintain an nulcient service. To this ond Commissioner Powell has been for some time devising for an advantageous change. The plan ho has in view is to estab lish a pumping station nt the mouth of James Creek Canal, which extends through tho heart of tho city, and utilize the water ob tained from the river front for three separate purposes, whereby the reculnr reservoirs will be relieved of a heavy drain upon their ca pacity. If the plan can bo rendered effective the pumping station will bo connected with mains for the snocial object of flushing sewers, watering tho 'parkings, and for cleaning smooth pavements, which can thus be washed thoroughly and afterwards swept with rubber brooms. Fire hydrants can also bo connected with the pumping station and an additional saving of water be effected. This new departure has tho commendable feature of affording relief in two ways. The water system will bo relieved of a heavy drain upon It, thereby increasing the supply to resi dents, which may bo further increased and extended, nnd at the snnie time nn additional facility will be furnished for street cleaniug at a reduced expense. It Is this matter whioh, among other im portant matters, will be investigated by Cnpt. Burr, the new assistant to the Engineer Com missioner. He will make a thorough exami nation of the proposed S3'stem, under the directionof Commissioner Powell, and submit tho results as early as practicable, and upon this report nn estimate will lw prepared for future use of tho department. Spocinl assessments are not debts, says the attorney for the District. "Special taxes, as they are sometimes called," Mr. Thomas re cites, "being local burdens imposed by mu nicipal corporations upon property bordering upon an improved street, situated; as near it as to be benefited by tho Improvement, and laid with reference to the benefit that such property is supposed to receive by au expendi ture of money to improvo the street, are charges upon proporty to raise money for specific public purposes, enforced propor tional contribution of abutting owners, levied by authority of the municipality or State for the reimbursement of moneys expended in the improvement. A tax differs from nn ordinary debt in that its obligation dees not depend upon contract, and is not en forcible by an action of debt, nor is the subject of set off an indebtedness of the taxing district; to the tax-payer, therefore, the drawback in question, representing a debt due the nerson to whom it is issued is for the above reasons not tho subject of set-off or counter-claim against the unpaid assessment against tho lot in 1R77." Tho question passed upon by tho attorney was whether a drawback certificate for S107.30, issued in respect of a revision of n special assessment 3Iny 20, 1S71, can be can celled and the same credited on nnother as sessment for special improvements against the same property in 1877. KOT AITLICABLE TO LAYIXO WATEB MAIKS. The question as to what property is assessa ble and what not, to defray tho cost of laying a water main to supply Brookland and por tions of the suburbs lying between Boundary street and tho Soldiers' Home grounds, was referred to Attorney Thomas for nn opinion. He says that section S of the tax law of ilarch 3, 1877, does not apply to assessments for lay ing water mains. It relates to general taxa tion and not to assessments for improve ments, the latter being a charge imposed by way of reimbursement for a benefit conferred, and exemptions from taxation do not embraco such assessments. Government property is exempt from both taxation and assessments. Tho queries propounded in a letter addressed to the Commissioners by Capt. Deroy, assistant to the Engineer Commissioner, were as to whether the Soldiers' Home grounds aro as sessable as other property for water main to bo laid in Michigan avenue, and whether as sessment for same cnu be made ngaiust tho Catholic University grounds abutting, nnd also upon the grounds of Glenwood Ceuictery. Also, for main in Lincoln avenue, can Pros pect Hill Cemetery be assessed? In the matter of tho application of Benja min 31. Meeds, secretary and treasurer of Graceland Cemetery, for cancellation of water main tax, amounting to S8G6.25. levied against tiie lands of said association, upon tho grounds that cemetery property is exempt from taxation. Attorney S. T. Thomas dis sents from the views of tho association and defines the difference between assessments and taxes. Mr. Thoma? says thero is no ex emption in tho statutes of cemoieries as to special assessments for laying water mains, nnd there is no doubt, ho says, in view of tho aet of Congress forbidding further inter ments at Graceland, and authorizing the as sociation to reinter in somo other locality and place its property upon tho market, that all its laud is to be considered as "reserved." and liable to tho special assessments complained of. Tho report of tho House, of tho Good Shep herd made to tho superintendent of charities for the year ending Juno 30, 1394, says it is conducted by the Sisters of tho Good Shep herd, under Sister Mary Martin, superior, and its object is to reclaim women nnd girls who desire to reform, and preserving from danger those who have not parental care. Its prin--cipal f-upport is derived from the labor of tho inmates. Owing to tho financial depression work in ono department had to bo stopped, and the institution hnd great trouble in securing means of maintenauf e. '' Tho house has uinety-ono inmates. The number received during tho year was sixty one. Expenses exceeded income by 61,028.48. but owinc to charitable contributions tho j accounts wero bnlanced. An annual appro 1 priatiou of 63,000 is asked for. oebmas orphan asvlujl ' Tho average daily attendance of children at the German Orphan Asylum during tho I last fiscal year was fifty, as shown by tho re port of President Charles Graff aud Secretary j Springsguth to Supt. Tracy, of tho Associated 1 Charities. Tho number in attendance on the last dny of the year was forty-live. Eighteen I children wero present July 1, 1893, who were j admitted by order of the court and tho agent 1 of tho Humnne Society; twelve were admitted 1 during tho year, and twenty-ono were dis , charged. Of those dismissed, seventeen wero returned to relatives; ono boy was sent to ! learn a trade: ono girl to learn dressmaking. and two girls to enter service. The health of tho children was excellent. Difficulty was experienced in procuring a permanent and sufficient supply of water, and an expendi ture of 6748 was rendered necessary there for. Tho asylum barn and stables wero de stroyed last year, entailing a loss that was not covered by insurance. Tho flro resulted from spontaneous combustion. The manage ment asks for an appropriation of 2,000 to assist in the maintenance of the institution next year. Building permits issued yesterday: P.

Tho pa per is signed by Chief Parris and 12G others. The District Commissioners having beu adisod that a guy wire had been extended from the power liouso of tho Hock Creek Bailway Company across Ontario avenue north of Superior street, tho same being a source of danger to pedestrians aud vehicle?, the superintendent of the company was yes terday officially requested to remove It within twenty-four hours. Iu tho event of failure to comply, the superintendent of roads will bo ordered to remove tho wire.

ESTIMATES 3IU8T BE SCALED DOWN. President Ross, of the Board of District Commissioners, stated last night that in order to como within the revenues tho estimates for 1890 will have to bo scaled to an amount ag gregating CSOO.000. "We havo to do this,"' said the Commissioner, "in order not to omit matters that wo feel ought to recoivo atten tion. It is elthor scale or omit, and w feel wo should not altogether neglect many de serving objects." It is, thoreforo, evident thnt tho estimates made by the multitudo of institutions and en terprises, as well as for public Improvements and other interests, aro considerably iu ex cess of what tho Commissioners will bo ablo to allow.
