Residences Hot Must Be Removed Frwjii Stores nt the Expense of the McrclinntH The Hud Condition of Sixteenth Street f j One of the directs of the present sys- tem of collecting and disposing of ashes and miscellaneous refuse is that it makes no provirion for the removal of such from tores and business houses In all the factories stores and premises oth- er than private residences the removal of ashes etc must be done at the expense of the parties owning or occuping the prem- ises in question There has been much complaint at thtarfiiscrlmination beween the householder and the business man in the removal of city waste as the average person is unable to draw a dividing line be tween ashes In a kitchen range or the furnace of a private house and similar residue of fire in the heating apparatus of a store while paper is much the same in all cases The matter was brought to the attention- of the Commissioners again recently by a letter from T A Judd and By a petition from J R Bowen and others complaining- of the manner in which they are against Mr JiM says that he has been officially informed by the Depart- ment of Street Cleaning that the refuse from his store must be removed at his ex pease while at his residence he says It is taken away by the collector free oV charge He asks that the Commissioners urge upon Congress the necessity of mak- ing an appropriation for the removal o such waste from business places as well as private houses In the petition of Bowen and others a similar request Is made and the petitioners state that they are now taxed to pay Ice the collection of these materials from pri- vate residences and they declare them selves unable to see any reason why the storekeeper or businss man should be ex- cluded from the service In reply to these letters the ComnVs sioners wrote this morning that they would ask Congress to make an addition- al appropriation of 35000 for the collec- tion and disposal of ashes and waste to cover the increased ex- pense of taking such material from stores and business hotels restaurants and houses George W Mercer Acting Superintend ent of Street explained to a re porter of The Times this morning that the failure of the department to take- away ashes and waste stores and business houses is not entirely the fault of the authorities The appropriation made at the last session of Congress was not sufficient to meet the ex- pense He stated that a of 115000 was appropriated for the collec- tion and disposal of garbage miscellane- ous refuse arid ashes in the city of and the more densely populated suburbs It was also stipulated that the amount appropriated should cover the cost of inspection supervision etc Mr Mercer explained that when the service was organized and the work let out to contractors the department agreed to pay 29790 for the collection and disposal- of ashes 8iOO f6r miscellaneous refuse 17000 for night soil and 51000 for gar- bage the balance of the appropriation being reserved for the payment of sala ries and contingent expenses Mr Mercer explained that the 29790 was all that could be spared for the col- lection and disposal of ashesand that it vraST only

ashes to all the business houses of the city A petition from Morris B Sabin and oth- er residents and property owners residing on Thirteenth Street northeast recently ceived by the Commissioners call their at- tention to the condition of Thirteenth Street between Lincoln Park and B Street The petition sets forth that curbing and granolithic pavement lavg been recently laid but that the street is not paved and that the gutters such as they are being full at mud and refuse to a level with the curbing the rain washes the sand from the street to the pavement The petition- ers declare their belief that the value of the improvements on the property facing this part of Thirteenth Street entitles them to a paved street and they request that the work may be done C B Hunt the Com- puting Engineer in reporting upon the ap- plication recommended that the petitioners- be informed that their communication will be placed on file for earliest consideration at the time when additions are mada to the paving schedules This recommendation- was today approved by the Commissioners Louise M Miller of 5 Quincy Street northeast recently wrote to the Commis- sioners requesting that the unpaid against the premises oh which she lives be canceled In accordance with the recent opinion of the Attorney relating to tax certificates She states that according to the law quoted by the Attorney if the Collector of Taxes or the Assessor gives a certificate stating that there Tin paid taxes or assessments against the prop erty at the time of transfer the District Is barred from collecting any taxes or1 assess- ments that might at that time be due End unpaid In relation claim the writer says Four years ago last September I bought 5 Quincy Street northeast There was at that time no unpaid taxes or assessments recorded against the property either In the office of the Recorder of Deeds or in Cifice of the District so said the Tax Officer in issuing clear tax certificate I paid all taxes since then all special as- sessments for improvements Over two years ago I was served a notice to pay something like 322 for some assessment that should have been levied and paid six or seven years ago which I have not paid for the reason given by the Attorney of the District that a clear tax certificate bars collection As this law has not been repealed I suppose it is still in force and I hereby ask that you cancel the assess- ment in question and clear the title to the property in accordance vlth the law The application having been referred to the Water Registrar for his consideration- the clerk of that department recently re- ported to Capt D D Gaillard in charge of that department recommending that the applicant be advised that the reassessment on lot 87 block 3 West Eckington was made under the provisions of the act Congress approved July 8 1898 and being in all respects in accord therewith cannot be canceled The clerk further reported that his office was not aware that any opinion has been rendered by the Attorney relating to cases of this character and he further states that such an opinion could not affect the status of this or simi lar assessments which if they can be can celed at all can only be so canceled by judicial proceedings The Engineer Commissioner today the application to his associates approving the recommendation of the Water Office The Funeral of Mr Stnlee The

Cifice of the District so said the TaxOfficer in issuing clear tax certificate Ipaid all taxes since then all special as-

sessments for improvements Over twoyears ago I was served a notice to paysomething like 322 for some assessmentthat should have been levied and paid sixor seven years ago which I have not paidfor the reason given by the Attorney ofthe District that a clear tax certificatebars collection As this law has not beenrepealed I suppose it is still in force andI hereby ask that you cancel the assess-ment in question and clear the title to theproperty in accordance vlth the law

The application having been referred tothe Water Registrar for his consideration-the clerk of that department recently re-

ported to Capt D D Gaillard in chargeof that department recommending that theapplicant be advised that the reassessmenton lot 87 block 3 West Eckington wasmade under the provisions of the actCongress approved July 8 1898 and beingin all respects in accord therewith cannotbe canceled The clerk further reportedthat his office was not aware that anyopinion has been rendered by the Attorneyrelating to cases of this character andhe further states that such an opinioncould not affect the status of this or similar assessments which if they can be canceled at all can only be so canceled byjudicial proceedings
