Governor Ritchie said last night that the offer of N. N. Matthews to donate a farm of 120 acres near Berlin, to the State as part of a site for an institution for the homeless was a matter for consideration by the Legislature.

"I have no power te accept such a gift on the part of the State," the Governor explained. "As I understand the offer, a considerable sum of money would be required to establish the institution, and this, of course, would have to be obtained by an appropriation made in the regular way.

Curiously he picked it up and saw to his delight that it was a valuable diamond pin. Realizing its value and being an honest sort of lad. he desired to return the pin to its owner. To do' this he looked In the only place where he was likelv to find Information as to who lost the pin; the "Lost and Found" column of the Sunpapers. Sure enough, there he found an advertisement describing the pin, and to his delight he found that the owned Mrs William Wheeler, 306 South-way, Guilford, ofTered $50 reward for its recovery.

FINDS P.

S. C. METHOD IS CONTRARY TO LAW Outlines Course To Be Followed In Fixing Worth Of Property. Without affirming or reversing the decision of the lower court and the Public Service Commission, the Court of Appeals yesterday, remanfled the appeal Involving the valuation and assessment of easements of the United Railways Company for a new hearing before the Public Service Com-mission. The opinion, in which six members of the court concurred, was written by Judge W.

Mitchell Digges. Two Judaea Dissent. JudRe William H. Adkins and Judge F. Neal Parke dissented.

They will hand down their opinions later. A valuation of $77,000,000, including the valuation of $7,000,000 on easements, was placed on the company's property by the commission. The valuation placed on the easements caused Clarence W. Miles, former People's Counsel, to take' the case to the city courts. When the commission was upheld, he took an appeal.

Value Of Basements. In its opinion, the Court of Appeals said "The duty of the commission is to fix the fair value of the property. In fixing the value" of the easements for the purpose of a rate basis, the commission can only fix a sum which fairly represents their value as an Interest In "Nothing can be added to the value of the easements which might' be affected by the rate which the company may be allowed to charge for When the commission ascertained the fair value of the property of the company, that ascertainment was conclusive for every purpose for which the commission could make a valuation. Makes Distinction. "The eaRements are an interest in real estate, and whatever value they have as an interest in real estate, the company is entitled to have included by the commission in making up the rate basis.

But any value attributable to easements which is dependent upon the earning of the company should not be included in the rate basis. "The commission having based their valuation upon the assessments which necessarily include earnings, the method was not in accordance with the law. The case will be remanded without affirmance or reversal, in order that the valuation may be made in conformity with the method expressed by this opinion." Hearings Begran Last Tear. Hearings to determine the value of the railway for rate-making purposes began before the commission in May, 1925. On March 9, 1926, the commis sion announced a valuation of the property, which included the $7,000,000.

Mr. Miles objected, on the basis that streets used by the company were not property which should be included in a valuation. He explained that to use the value of these easements for rate-making would be unlawful and unreasonable. Judge Eli Frank sustained the opinion of the commission when the case was heard before him in the Circuit Court. Arguments of the case before the Court of Appeals were made by Mr.

Miles and Thomas J. Tingley, present People's Counsel, on the one side, and Thomas H. Robinson, Attorneys-General, Joseph C. France and Edwin G. Baet-jer, for the Public Service Commission and the Railways Company.

Nathan Freeman, 100 block Jackson place, was held by the Northeastern district police yesterday in default of $100 bail fixed by Magistrate Thomas F. O'Neill after a hearing on charges of keeping a house for the purpose of bookmaking. It was the third time Freeman had been arrested on book-making charges, the police said. Magistrate Joseph J.

S30 Fremont At. OF CITY ZONING LAWS IS BEGUN Committee Of Attorneys Confers With Wallace On Ordinances. BODY-WILL MEET NEXT WEDNESDAY Effective Draft Expected To Be Ready For Council Soon. Consolidation of existing ordinances relating to buildings and the use of buildings as a means of providing relief for the toning situation was begun yesterday by a committee of lawyers working In cooperation with Charles C. City Solicitor.

1 Mayor Jackson has asked Mr. Wallace to prepare a comprehensive toning ordinance, based on study of recent court rulings on tbs original ion dig law and the subsequent ordinances written by Philip B. Perlman before his retirement from the City Solicitorship. Situation Reviewed. The conferees of Mr.

Wallace are William L. Bawls, Raymond S. Williams and 0. Alexander Fairbank, Jr, legal members of the Zoning Commission, and John H. Lewin, Assistant Qty Solicitor.

They spent two hoars In a general review of the zoning situation yesterday in Mr. Wallace's office, and are understood to have agreed that the most practical way of accomplishing the result desired by the Mayor would bs the consolidation of four or five ordinances regulating buildings and the use of buildings in residence districts, It was announced that the committee would work. out a general plan limiting the use of buildings in residential sec tions of the city and discuss it at a meeting to be held next Wednesday. Neither Mr. Wallace nor any of his associates in the work would make a statement last night, but it was thought at the City Hall that an effective law could be drafted and sent to the City Council at an early date.

Conncll To Cooperate, Members of the Council have offered to cooperate with the Mayor to the extent of responding to a call for a special session of the Council as soon as Mr. Wallace Is ready to submit his report and recommendation, In which the draft of the proposed consolidated ordinance will be included. Mr. Wallace said last night that every phase of the zoning situation would be considered before his report was prepared for the Mayor. The proposed ordinance will be expected to meet the needa of the city as to zoning until the Legislature at its next session authorizes and the voters ratify an amendment to the Constitution of the State.

Need Emphasised. The need for an effective ordinance was emphasized, it was pointed out at the City Hall yesterday, by the action of Judge Walter I. Dawkins in the Ciity Court last Wednesday directing Charles H. Osborne, head of the Bureau of Buildings, to issue a permit for a gro-dery at 2505 North Charles street, beyond the Twenty-fifth-street "dead line" for stores and other business establishments in Charles street, as fixed by Mr. Osborne.

Municipal officials had expressed the hope that Judge Dawkins would uphold Mr. Osborne and the Board of Zoning Appeals In denying the permit because of the character of residences in the (Continued on Patre 7, Column The New, Magnificent S.S.

ALLEGED INSTANCE CITED Norris Supporters Point Out Curran Men's Claim In Regard To Governor. Some of Governor Ritchie's friends in the Kelly camp are putting the Governor in an embarrassing situation through asserting that they have his support in local fights, according to declarations made by Mahon followers in the city. It is said a similar condition exists in some of the Democratic factional contests in the counties.

What is said to be a clear-cut instance is cited in the First Legislative district. The friends of William Norris, whose candidacy for the Democratic nomination for State the First Legislative district Is opposed by the faction led by William Curran, the present Senator, assert that Curran's supporters lay claim to being the original and true Ritchie adherents. Imputations Resented. The Norris men resent imputations that they are not true to the Governor or to Millard E. Tydings, the Democratic candidate for United States Senator, and they say 'that repeated assertions on the part of the Curran clan that Ritchie is on their side is driving support away from the Governor.

Tickets were being distributed yesterday for a "Grand Family Picnic and Outing," to be given by the Fainnount Democratic Association at Peerless-Shore, Middle River, on July 25. It was said that the order for the tickets was given on July 1. and that the resolution to hold the picnic Was passed by the association on June 29. The resolution, it was stated, provided that Governor Ritchie, Mr. Tydings, Mayor Jackson and Augustine J.

Ryan, strongly mentioned as the Democratic candidate for Representative from the Third Congressional district, should be invited as the guests of bonor. Called Answer Tn Challenge. The Fainnount Democratic Association is known colloquially as "Billy Norris' Olub," and its members assert that this record is sufficient answer to Mr. Curran's challenge, printed last Monday, that Mr. Norris call his club together and indorse Ritchie and Tydings to show his loyalty to the organization Stats ticket.

The club is prohibited by its constitution from indorsing candidates, and the invitation was the nearest approach to an indorsement it could make, they declare. The Norris people scout the report that the contest in the First district is a straightout fight between Sonny Mahon and Frank Kelly. They assert Kelly and Mahon are pulling together and that that will be made plain before the primary election. They insist that the reported agreement between Mahon and Kelly, under which Matron's sphere of influence should include the first three legislative districts numerically and Kelly the remaining three, is a fact and they express their belief that both leaders are living up to it "Since when did the First district become Mahon territory 7" is the countering question of the Curran element. And in refutation tbey point out that the present State Senator from that district is a Kelly man and assert a majority of the City Councilmen are his followers.

FORMER OPINION UPHELD Notification Sent To Baughman Following Conference Of Highway Department. Delaware highway officials will continue enforcement of the recent ruling requiring Maryland motor vehicles, for hire to take out Delaware licenses while operating in that State. S. D. Townsend, Delaware Secretary of State, in charge of motor vehicles, notified E.

Austin Baughman, Maryland Commissioner of Motor Vehicles, to this effect yesterday following a conference of the Delaware Highway Department, special counsel and Clarence A. Southerland, Attorney-General of Delaware. Ruling Upheld. Mr. Southerland upheld the ruling of Robert H.

Richards, attorney for the Highway Department. In his letter yesterday to Mr. Baugh-mal, Mr. Townsend said: "I am inclosing herewith a copy of opinion of Robert H. Richards, attorney for the State Highway Department of this State, relative to the registration of Maryland-owned motor vehicles operating in this State for hire or reward, and letter of Hon.

Clarence A. Southerland, Attorney-General of this State, wherein he concurs in the opinion given by Mr. Richards. In the concluding part of his opinion, Mr. Richards says: "'I am quite clear that there is no statutory authority under which any public official or officials of the State of Delaware have any righf to make any agreement with respect to the operation of motor vehicles over the roads of this State.

'It is my opinion, therefore, the statute law of this State and the reciprocity clause thereof do not permit you to allow Maryland-owned motor vehicles engaged in the transportation of freight or passengers for hire or reward over the roads of Delaware to operate on such roads without being registered in Delaware and paying the required registration Must Carry Oat Law. "The above-mentioned opinion was considered this afternoon at a meeting held by the Secretary of State and the other members of the1 State Highway Departr ar.t, and at this meeting it was determ.tad that the officials of this State having charge of the enforcement of (motor-vehicle laws have no other course to pursue than to carry out the law as expressed In said opinion. "Under the circumstances, we cannot enter into the reciprocal arrangement suggested in your letter of July 1." Representatives of Maryland trucking concerns and State officials yesterday held a conference under auspices of the Baltimore Automobile Trade Association to consider means toward withdrawal of the Delaware measure.

A copy of the letter was read to him and he said that he would refer the ruling to Thomas H. Robinson, Attorney-General of Maryland, for advice. "I am curious to know," Mr.

Baughman said, "whether this ruling applies solely to Maryland or whether it is directed against other States as wU." 1 A f. tal case dealing with illegitimate children inheriting from Maryland wills for the last fifty-six years.

Isaac Lobe Straus, attorney for the plaintiffs, in one of the longest briefs submitted to the Court of Appeals la recent years, argued that legitimacy was a status, and once that status was established it was recognized by comity between civilized States.

Mr. Straus argued further that the legitimacy of a child was determined by the child's domicile. In the Holloway case, air. Straus asserted, we ciuiu was -r oa i legitimized by the laws of Nevada and California, and, although born out of wedlock, must be recognized as legitimate in Maryland because of the recognition of the other two States.
