AUDITOR RAISED QUESTION Desired Information Relating to Man ner of Charging Against Accounts in Special Assessment Office Quotation From Law on the Subject. Mr. A. B. Duvall, tho Corporation Counsel, has submitted to the Dlstiict Commissioners an opinion upon the question of bookkeeping raised by the Auditor relative to the charging of te award of damages against the accounts of the special assessment office. Mr. Duvall gives it as his opinion that the excess of the award of damages should be deducted from the hill rendered by the special assessmente-clerk. The Auditor several davc ago submit ted the question to the Commissioners, and requested an opinion upon the fol lowing proposition: "In the case of opening of an alley where the assessment for benefits ex ceeds in amount the award for damages, should the latter be deducted from tho bill rendered by the special assessment office, or should payment therefor bo made to the property owner upon a duly audited Toucher?" Mr. Duvall reviews the law relating to the opening of alleys, and submits the following statement: Deduct From Benefits. "Condemnation proceedings for open . ing alleys in the District are provided for in sections 1608 and 1615 inclu sive, of the code of law for the Dis trict of Columbia. The Jury of con demnation is required to apportion the amount of damages, etc, according ss each lot In the square may be bene fited by the opening of the alley, and section 1612 contains the following rro vIbo: 'Provided, however, that in cases provided for In section 1610, the sums paid or agreed to be paid for the land contained In any alley or part of alley to be ciosed shall first be deducted from the amount of benefits so to be as sessed.' j "This provision Ib the only reference to the subject of offsetting damages and benefits in the matter of the open Irg of alleys, and it relates solely to a case where an existing alley has been closed, and the area of such alley has been sold and annexed to the contiguous lots. The condemnation of land for an alley Is an exercise of the power of emi nent domain, and the public can only ac quire title to the land taken by com pensating the owners therefor. Deals Only With Owners. "The Jury of condemnation deals onlv with the owner of the fee of the land, and awards a 6um representing the value of the fee title; such title, however, may be subject to liens and incumbrances, and unless these are satisfied by the payment of the award the public would not acquire title to the land, complete title being acquired only by satisfaction of such liens and incumbrances. Furth ermore, a rule of statutory construction would confine the above-quoted provi sion of section 1612 to the cass men tioned therein. "I am therefore of the opinion that an award or damages in the case of the opening of an alley in condemnation proceedings should be paid to the prop erty owner, upon a duly audited vouch er, and should not be deducted from the bill rendered from the special assess ment office." MINOR MUNICIPAL MATTERS OF INTEREST On the recommendation of the Super intendent of Police, tho Commissioners have granted permission to Walter A. Bartlett, past commander of the Mary land Grand Army of the Republic, to suspend a large United States flag from the house 309 Sixth Street northwest to the hall opposite during the Grand Army of the Republic encampment. On recommendation of Dr. Percy Hick ling, visiting physician of the "Wash ington Asylum Hospital, Robert W. Armstrong, an orderly of the hospital. has been removed, to take effect Sep- tember 12 The Commissioners have directed Mr. Appleton P. Clark, Jr., who requested that the trustees of the Garfield Me morial Hospital be furnished with a sur vey and contour map of the tract of land adjoining the hospital grounds on the west, to be informed that this work is not such as is usually required of the Surveyor's office, and that the pressure of duties there will not per mit of its being done. Mr. Clark will be informed that the work should be done by private surveyors. Mr. L. B. Coylc, of Coalton, Ohio, will be Informed by the Commissioners that while there is no specific law against the sale of chameleons in the District, that the Humane Society has Indicated a determination to prosecute anyone who may attempt nhe sale of these reptiles here during the Grand Army of the Republic encampment. Mr. Coyle requested Information of the Commissioners whether he would be al lowed to engage In thnt business dur ing the period of the encampment. The Commissioners have directed that the payment of special assessment for ldewalk against certain property of Barah J. Forest be accepted without penalties and interest. John Burck has been appointed addi tional private of the police force for a period of three years, for duty at prem ises 208 to 218 N Street southwest. The Philadelphia, Wilmington, and Baltimore Railroad Company has been permitted to string two wires over their right of way between the tower .it Dcanwood and the station at Bennlng, said wires to cross the Bennlng Road to be used In connection with the G. A. R. encampment. Mr. Frederick B. Pyle has been ap pointed by the Commissioners to assist the Inspector of Buildings in the pre paration of plans and specifications for a stationhouse and table In Southeast Washington on the site of the present Fifth precinct. Provided the plans are accepted by the Commissioners the compensation Is to be 3 per cent of the contract price for the erection of the building. Mr. C. C. Lancaster, president of the Citizens' Northwest Suburban Associa tion, has been informed no contract for the erection of a police substation In Tenleytown can be made until there is a full Board of Commissioners, and that his association will be given an opportunity to express Its views before the full Board when it is organized. The Commissioners have replied to a communication of Mr. Barry BulKley, secretary of the National G. A. R. en campment committee, requesting permis sion to mark by signs such public res ervations as come under the supervision of the Commissioners, that they are willing to grant the request, but before doing so they desire to know the loca tions where the signs are to be erected and the nature of the signs to be used, and they also require a guarantee that all pavements or other public property disturbed In the work shall be replaced In its former condition. AflBUAL REPORT FOR FREEMAN'S HOSPITAL Condition Better Than Has Been for Years. It Repairs Were Made Out of Usual Ap propriation, and There Is No Deficit. Dr. W. A. Warfleld, surgeon-in-chief of Freedman's Hospital, has submitted his annual report of the conduct of the institution to Hon. E. A. Hitchcock, Secretary of the Interior. Many repairs which were necessary to the buildings and grounds have been made with the usual appropriation, and without a ile flcit, a healthful condition that -had not been possible in the last four years. The. hospital staff has been put to much Inconvenience through the lack of certain facilities, among which was a pathological laboratory. This has been furnished in a small but well appointed room, supplied with modern appliances, so that proper methods of scientific In vestigation and diagnosing may be made with equal advantage to the medical and surgical departments. New furniture, floor and files have been added to the clerk's .office, and a large case built for the purpose of class ifying and properly preserving histories and clinical records of patients. Treated 2,535 Patients. During the year, which ended June 30, 1902, 2.40S patients were admitted to the hospital, which, with 127 who remained over from the preceding year,, aggre gated 2,535 patients treated during the year. Of this number 1,792 were resi dents of the District of Columbia. In the dispensary department 5,397 cases were registered, 2,337 revisited and 7,048 prescriptions compounded. In the surgical department 523 operations wero performed and only one death regis tered. Dr. Charles I. West and Dr. William H. Hughes were appointed first and sec ond assistants, respectively, March 1 of the present year. Miss Annie A. Simms resigned the office of matron January 1, 1902, and was succeeded by Miss Annie C. King. For New Hospital Building. The recommendation of the surgeon-in-chief for a new hospital building has been renewed. At the last session of Congress the Senate amended the Dis trict appropriation bill so as to provide 15,000 for plans and specifications for a new building to bo erectfd on the grounds of the present hospital, the cost not to exceed JIGO.000. While this amendment was stricken out of the bill, in conference of the two houses. It is pointed out that a new hospital build ing is absolutely necessary to the needs of the Institution. The present buildings are so situated that the erection of a new .house would not In any way Interfere with tho pres ent service, and It would not bo neces sary to provide a temporary place for the care of patients. The appeal has been made each successive year, but It Is expected that Congress may take it up during the coming session. REQUESTS A DELAY. Mr. Sensner Asks Postponement of Sixteenth Street Extension. The District Commissioners a few- days ago received a letter- from Mr. George W. Sensner. of 2336 Fifteenth Street northwest, requesting that the advertisement for proposals to purchase his property In the line of the exten sion of Sixteenth Street he. postponed for about ten months in order to ghv time for the completion of a new home now in process of erection. In reply the Commissioners will say that the advertisements for the pur chase of the property inyiuestion had been issued before the receipt of Mr. Sensner's letter, and that the bids will be opened on October 4. They will sav further that the authorities consider It the best policy for the District to re move nil the houses that have been paid for In connection with street ex tensions as soon as practicable, so m to have the street clear for the pur poses of lmproement. Such is the policy adopted In several other cnjcs, end the Commissioners will say that It Is not deemed right to make exceptions now. Declined Request for Stand. The District Commissioners have de clined to grant the request of John J. Jackson, of 309 C Street northeast, to set up a boot blacking stand In front of the Postoffice building on Sundays, on the ground that there are sufficient fa cilities or the kind In the vicinity.

This Matter Will Be Determined by Justice Barnard Validity of" Will Was Contested. The Beyer will case, which has been a matter of litigation in the District courts and the Supreme Court of the United States for the past two years, is ngaln a subject of consideration in the Supreme Court of the District. Ar gument on the questions Involved were heard by Justice Barnard, who took the matter under advisement and will an nounco his decision In a few days. It will be remembered that Mrs. Beyer died on July 2G, 1S96, leaving two valu able pieces of property on Brightwood Avenue,. Slie left surviving her a hus band, Louis Beyt-r, sr. It appears that they had children, but had adopted into their household a nephew and a niece, who were regarded by the Beyers as their adopted son and daughter. After the death of Mrs. Beyer a docu ment purporting to bo her last will was filed for probate in the office of the Reg ister of Wills for "the District. By tho terms of this Will Mrs. Beyer bequeathed all of her real estate to her nephew, Louis Beyer, jr., and her niece. Mr. Beyer, her husband, and her- sisters, Caroline LeFevre and Elizabeth Maus, filed a caveat. After this Louis Beyer, sr., placed on record a deed In which the greater part of the real estate left by his wife was conveyed to him by his nephow and piece. Mr." Beyer, sr., then withdrew from the contest over his wife's estate. Contest Is Started. The conveyance of the real estate to Mr. Beyer, sr., however, did not hinder Mrs. Beyer's sisters and heirs at law from still suspecting the invalidity of the will. Ou April 7, 1S99. Caroline Le Fevre filed proceedings in probate to have the will set aside. In this she was strongly opposed by her former co-complainant, Louis Beyer, sr. Hearing upon the issued raised was had before a jury In December, 1S99, and resulted In a verdict declaring the will of Mary Beyer Invalid on the ground that it was ex ecuted under the stress of undue influ ence. The court refused to set aside the verdict on a motion for a new trial. The matter was then taken to the equity branch of the Supreme Court of the District, where the proceedings had be fore the Jury were reviewed. Here again the finding of the Jury was sustained. From this decision the caveators took an appeal to the Court of Appeals of the District, where the. whole case was reargued. That court, too, was unani mous in its decision that tho will cf Mary Beyer was invalid, and the judg ments of the lower courts were affirmed. Verdict Finally Overruled. From this decision Louis Beyer, sr., alone took an appeal, the nephew and niece declining to carry the contest any further. The appeal of the husband was An Invisible Enemy to Health. Malaria is an invisible atmospheric poison. Theair becomes infec ted with the gases and microbes arising from the marshes and low lands, damp cellars, sewer pipes, badly ventilated houses and deca3'ing vegeta ble matter, and we unconsciously inhale them into the lungs, when they are taken np by the blood and circulated throughout the s'stem. Malaria gives no warning of its coming; no immediate effects are seen, and no violent symptoms appear until the unfortunate sufferer is completely at the mercy of this hidden foe. This invisible enemy may be following us night and day, but often the first intimation we have of its presence is a chilly, creepy sensation running over the body, sometimes followed by a slight fever, and an always tired, drowsy and depressed feeling. The blood soon becomes deeply poisoned, thinned and weakened by the teeming millions of microbes and germs, and an irregular, slow circulation is the result. This condition of the blood gives rise to innumerable and serious troubles : torpid liver, - enlargement of the spleen, loss pallid, or yellow skin, boils, carbuncles, abscesses, indolent ulcers, "gg T DTTTCITTT T TT T.T' ATorl, For several years I suffered with Chills and l-'ever, caused by Malaria in tny system, and each summer for several years I would relapse, Finally jny physician pre scribed S.

S. S., which not oul'' purges the blood of all morbid, unhealthy matter, but keeps it pure and healthy. It searches out and destroj's every trace of Malarial poison, and keeps the blood in such a vigorous condition that poisonous matters of no kind are allowed to accumulate, but are promptly expelled from the system. During the fall is an opportune time to begin the fight against this invisible enemy, for the hot, sultry summer days have caused the germs to multiply and still further impov erish the blood and weaken the constitution, and now more than ever the Malaria sufferer great vegetable remedy. Its freedom from all minerals makes it the ideal remedy in all Malarial troubles and perfectly adapted to the most delicate constitutions. If you have any symptoms take up your case and advise heard before the Supreme Court of the United States in May last and a decision vns rendered stating that the evidence adduced at the trial before a jury wa3 not sufficient to invalidate the will, and reversed all previous decisions In con nection with the case. The questions considered by Justice Barnard are whether the proceedings should be dismissed and ended or whether the sisters of Mary Beyer should now. be allowed to retry the ense before 'another jury and so renew the contest. Another interesting ques tion discussed was what is the status of the nephew and niece in the present proceedings, they having abandoned the contest when it reached the Court of Appeals for the District. Attorney Clay ton E. Hmlg appeared as counsel for the husband of the testatrix. HEALTH OFFICE RECORD. DeAhs.
