Suit to Recover Taxes Paid Against District
The Washington Loan and Trust Company, aided by Attorneys George Hamilton and Aldis Browne, filed suit in the District Supreme Court seeking $4,092.61 plus interest from May 2, 1903, claiming overpayment of personal taxes after a protest against an $10,472.47 bill. The claim notes a prior payment of $1,283 in lieu of personal taxes for the year ending December 31, 1902, and alleges an overcharge despite tax officials’ actions. A large iron beam fell while being hoisted at a new E Street building, injuring two men. A. C. Dean, 38, of Patricks Street, Alexandria, Virginia, was cut on leg and head, and Jake Davis, 25, of 45% H Street NW, suffered back and neck contusions. Both were treated at the Emergency Hospital.
