TO HUN STEAM ENGINE

Mrs Annie Berger Says She CanManage One Properly

The Commissioners have been askedto decide whether or nat a woman canbecome a licensed steam engineer andhave referred the matter to CorporationCounsel for his consideration and opinion The question arose yesterday when-a letter was received by the Commis-sioners from Annie Borgor 476 L Streetsouthwest making application for ex-

amination as steam engineer in the Dis-

trict of ColumbiaMrs Berger says she is 36 years of age

and for the past two years has beenoperating the steam plant at her hus-bands bakery Her application bearsthe indorsement of J T Brown 76 lStreet northeast Clans Denekas 1112

Fifteenth Street northwest and Theodoro J Mayor 214 B Street southeastwho assure the Commissioners that MrsBergor Is sober industrious andworthy and capable of managing steamboilers and engine

Secretary Boesoh of the board of ex-

aminers of steam engineers In his re-port on the matter states that the boardis in doubt as to Its authority under thelaws governing steam engineering in theDistrict of Columbia to examine a wo-man for license The Commissionersheld up their hands in despair and havepassed the papers on to A B Duvallwho as Corporation Counsel will determine the rights or all the parties in thecase

PERMIT IS REFUSEDADVERTISING FAKER

The Commissioners wont on record today as opposed to granting permits toadvertising wagons or vehicles constructed solely for the purpose of adver-tising Andrew J WIegand of Baltimore wrote to the Commissioners yes-terday asking for a ruling on the matter declaring that he had In operation-In all the large Eastern cities wagonsof a similar description to the one de-scribed in Washington-

The matter referred to MajorSylvester who made the following re-port

Under section 2 of article 10 of thepolice regulations Xo person shall construct any temporary framework uponany vehicle for tho purpose of circulat-ing temporary signs upon the streetsavenues and alleyways without firstprocuring a permit therefor from theInspector of Buildings I am of theopinion that this character of advertis-ing although carried on by some of ourmerchants should bo discouraged asthese wagons tend to frighten horsesand In a manner are obstructions totravel

SUBSTITUTED BROTHER

John W Hollidge Adopted ThisMeans to Get Position

The Commissioners have been calledupon to act in a peculiar case connectedwith the recent examination for positions in tho fire doaprtmont It appears that John W Hollidge who wasan applicant for a position as firemansubstituted his brother to take themental examination

kHis brother passed tho examination

with a percentage of 8802 whereuponJohn W Hollidge requested to beplaced upon the eligible list This wvsnor done and the matter was referred-to Commissioner Macfarland who rec-ommended that neither John W HollIdgo nor his brother be admitted toany future examinations for positions inthe fire department

Hollldgo cannot bo punished for theoffense because Congress has not ad-

opted the recommendation of the Commissioners to extend the United Statescivil service act to tho government of theDistrict of Columbia

Theexaminatlons held for the Com-

missioners of the District of Columbiaby the Civil Service Commission are

a matter of courtesy and do notbring tho applicants under tho UnitedStates civil service law Therefore prosecution could not be sustained undertho present law in the case

Clerk Donnelly In his report of thematter says Upon the return ofpapers to this department by the UnitedStates Civil Service Commission I notedthat Mr Hollidge had made a percent-age of 8802 and having assisted in theconduct of the examination I did notremember seeing Mr HolHdge present

Had ho been present I would haverecognized him for tho reason that hehad taken the examination twice bofore After comparing the papers Inoticed a slight discrepancy In the hand-writing weight and age This added

suspicions and I called John WHollidge to this office After question-ing him In regard to the matter ho ad-

mitted that he had allowed his brotherwho desired he states to become amember of this department to take theexamination In hlsstcad adding that hethought It no violation of the civil

rulesHis brother however has never

application In this department
