Adams’ Denounces the Slander. To the Editor of Tar EVENING Stan: 1am very positive that Mr. Geo. W. Adams left no will. I was present a few months before his death when he witnessed the execution of a will made by a friend; we were together over an hour, and the talk was on matters of that kind, and I found that while he agreed with his friend that arrangements of that kind ought to be made he was very reluctant to think about the matter, and left the impression on my mind positively that he had as yet made no will." And trom the statement of his lawyer in last evening's Stak he certainly made no Will after his conversation with me. I knew Mr. Adams over twenty years, and recol- lect the time he bought the house on Corcoran street. He talked to me about the matter, and my impression was then as it 1s now, that the house ‘was vought for the use of lis mother with his own money. ‘That was about twelve years ago. Mr. Adains was one of the most seMsitive and honor- abie men I ever knew, and one of the most affec- tonate to his family. His whole heart. was Rrapped up in them to such an extent that, as 1s known to bis friends, the worry and anxiety’ over the sickness and death of a daughter a few weeks before his own brought on the fliness of which he died.

E. Prentiss, growing out the German- American National Bank. District Attorney Worthington and Special Assistant R.R. Petry appeared for the Government. In View of the fact that he (Judge MacArthur) was about to retire they thought that the cases should not be left Pending, and asked that the remaining cases be dismissed, Judge MacArthur said he had the im- pression that there Was an understanding that all the cases would be settled by the trial. Aitersome further discussion all the cases were ended except- | Ing two indictments for perjury. Mr. Wilson said | he had demurred to these fndictments. Mr. Perry | Said he was not prepared to argue this demurrer now, and the judge said he would have to turn them over vo his successor. . ——— ‘The National Drill. ‘TROOPS FROM KENTUCKY COMING.

The failure of Congress to pass the Dill providing for the reorganization of the District militia leaves the local military companies in a very anomalous condition, especially as regards participation in the national drill. ‘They are all distinct and sepa- Tate from each other; the commanding officers, with perhaps one or two exceptions, do not hold commissions, and the men are not regularly en- Usted. Under the rules and regulations for the national drill none of the local companies could enter into competition. If by sufferance of other organizations they should be allowed to compete, they could not be entitled to _ receive a prize, although they might be the acknowledged superiors of all other Sompelliors: With this view of the case, a strong effort Is belug made to have all the local militia reorganized pn & Sound military basis before the opening of the na- Uonal drill, 1n order that all possible objections to thelr organization may be removed. ‘The matter has been brought to the attention of the War De- partment, and 1s’ now in the hands of Adjutant General Drum, who is giving it his personal atten- tion. AS soon 4s the best method has been decided upon it will be submitted to the President for action, THE PROPOSED PLAN isto secure an organization under the old law of 1803, which empowered the President to commis- sion officers for the District militia, Although many of the provisions of the law referred to are obsolete and ridiculous tn the light of the advance- ment in military organizations of the present, that power ts, tt 1s sald, still operative, and if exercised ‘will settle the whole question, While the general plan has “been practically: de- termined, there are details to be adjusted which willrequire careful consideration. ‘The first. step 48 to have the President commission somebody a brigadier-general of militia, who shall be in com- mand of all the different local organizations, Its understood that a private citizen will be recor mended for the office, and not one of the Distr ‘Commissioners, as Was recommended by the chict of ordnance. ‘NO CHANGE OF THE PRESENT ORGANIZATIONS. It 1s not intended to change in any way the present organization of the different companies, for fear of arousing feelings of discontent and Jealousy. With a brigadier general in command, it 4s proposed to secure through him commisstons for the officers of the different organizations, and then to regularly enlist the men belonging to them. The enlistment may be only temporai and after the drill privates who wish can be h orably discharged, with credit for past services, I, a year from now, they wish to re-enlist. they Will have their honorabie-discharge papers to show. If no unexpected obstacle 1S encountered, it is thought that the above simple plan will solve the problem of the status of the District militia, | and will enable any of the organizations to enter the drill competitions on equal footing with the national guard of the States. THE NATIONAL GUARD OUR ARMY IN CASE OF WAR. “By the way,” said an army officer toa Star re- porter thismorning, “the national guard will be our army in case of war, and all that we can do to im- prove, it should be done giadiy and immediate! in the event of war the regular army will probabis be practically dissolved in the inflitia, and if tt 1s not it should be. A regular army of 25,000 men for 60,000,000 people Wil! amount to nothing in time of Wir. The army should be regarded as a training school simply for the benefit of the national guard in uine of war. Placing ‘the Tegular army officers at the disposal of the gov. ernors of the States, to organize and assume com land of the volunteer troops, would, I think, be the Dest disposition of our army officers in war mes.” ‘Miss Waite has gone to Annapolls for a visit. ‘Miss Eleanor Foster, daughter of Hon. John W. Foster, went yesterday, to New York city for a three Weeks’ Visit to tie Crosby-Browns and the Van Santyoords. Mr. and Mrs. John R. McLean went over to New York to-day.

It is Gradually Becoming Mere Popu- lar,in the West. Secretary Jno. T. Doyle, of the civil-service com- mission, has just returned from a tour of ‘twenty- two days’ duration in the service of the commis. sion. He went out to conduct examinations at different cities, under the new annual system of designating regular examinations for certain dates atcertain places. ‘This plan was adopted in order toafford ail applicants opportunity to be exam- ined, Mr. Doyle really put the system in opera- Uon on his recent trip, He held examinations at Williamsport and Pittsburg, Pa.; Rochester and Buffalo, N.Y.; Detroit, Lansing and Grand Rapids, Mich.; Fort Wayne, Ind., and Toledo and Cleve- land, Ohio. In conversation with a Star reporter to-day Mr. Doyle said that the classes he examined were large, considering the number of applicants who were notified from Washington of the dates of the examinations in time, As the system was put into operation almost immediately after 1ts adop- Uon, time enough did not intervene to get advices to all the applicants, but this 1s a dilliculty that will not exist hereafter. special pains to inquire Mr. Doyle said he tool of postinasters, of boards of examiners and of leading citizenS with whom he came in contact, as to the progress of reform sentiment in thé West. “I am satisfled,” he remarked, “that the sentiment has ot made any such advance’ as it has ‘inthe t.

A Stone to be Placed on the Spot Where the Brave Commander Fell. The movement to erecta monument on Spot- sylvania battle-fleld, where Gen. Sedgwick fell, inaugurated by the surviving members of the ‘Sixth Army Corps, received an impetus last night, when the Sedgwick Memorial Association met at Grand Army Hall, Gen. Horatio G. Wright, who succeeded Gen. Sedgwick in command ot the corps, was made chairman, and Col. F. G. Butterfield Secretary. Among others present were Gen. Brown, Capt. E. R. Campbell, Capt. Partridge, Geo. W. Johnson, of Philadelphia, chairman of the executive committee of the association; Jas. Mc- Gee, secretary, and David Ginther, treasurer. Chairman Johnson and Mr. Ginther addressed the meeung, giving an outline of the objects and efforts of the assoclation, and the program for the dedication of the monument to be erected.

A number of Sixth Corps soidiers from Phiiadel- phia, on a recent visit to the Virginia battie-fieids, Were astonished to find that ere was no or tablet to mark the spot where Gen. Sedgw fei, Returning to Philadelphia they calied a number of their old comrades together, arid it was then detertained that some proper aud Inexpen- sive memorial stone should be erected. This led to the formation of the Sedgwick Memorial As- soclation, A circular issued trom the headquarters of the association says: “It is not intended to con- struct-an expensive monumental memorial; that the Sixth Corps long: e did and the handsome bronze statue of Sedgwick, on the West Point parade ground, attests the generous remembrances of the followers -of that famous general. It isde- signed lo purchase trom the Alsop farm a littie less than an acre of ground, to erect a neat and appropriate stone tablet, yome 8 tcet high and 5 feet square at the base, properly inscribed, and to enclose it with a suitavle guard or railing. This, itis ascertained, can be accomplished for the sum of about $2,000. It 1s proposed to have the stone in piace, ready for dedicaUlon, on the twenty-third anniversary of Gen. Sedgewick’s death, the 9th of May next.” The design for the memorial stone elected proposes 2 monument of Quincy granite, 9 teet high, 5 feet 5 inches at base, with sultablé inscriptons on each of the four sides, and inclosed by a 15-feet_ square galvanized iron railing, with granite posts. ‘The Work 1s now in the hands of Uhe contractor and will be compled before May 1, 1887. ‘The association has purchased the acre of jand from the Alsop estate, which includes the spot Where the general fell, and on which the tablet will be erected.

A Suburban Settlement Projected by a Syndicate of Clerks. 5 ‘The project of forming a suburb, to be known as Agassiz Park, on the eastern side of the Eastern Branch, 1s now being pushed forward rapidly. The Park, as laid out, consists of a block of about 400 acres, picturesquely located. It 1s over a mile long: and about a half amile in width. The line of Pennsylvania avenue extended crosses the south- ern borders, and Massachusetts avenue extended ‘will extend east through the northern portion of the tract. A few yards from where this avenue will intersect the Baltunore and Potomac Rallroad it 1s proposed to locate the, Agassiz Park station. The park has. frontage of about 100 rods on the Eastern Branch, and at the station ts 20 feet above tidewater. Froin there, in gentle undulation, tt rises to over 200 feet along the Marlboro’ road. "It embraces about fifteen pieces of land, ranging from one to one hundred acres each, tor which the lowest price paid was $100 and tle highest $600 an acre. Some owners, while declining to sell, have entered into the proposed scheme, - It ig ant nounced that several houses will be commenced this spring as soon as the grounds are surveyed and laid out by the landscape gardener. ‘The per- sons interested in the project are, tur the most art, clerks In the several sclentitle bureaus of the ‘the projectors think that a happler a has e projectors, hat_a happler day dawned for the portion of the District which, since the destruction of the old Eastern Branch bridge, When the British soldiers sacked the city, in 1814, has been somewhat neglected. ‘The. new bridge, to be completed in a few months, will make the park casily accessible. | Those interested are en- ‘husiastic over the natural advantages of scenery and altitude. It 1s proj to make Massachu- ‘setts and:Pennsylvania avenues extended the prin- cipal thoroughfares of the park, and, so far us the topography will permit, the subdivision will be made to conform with’ the general plan of the city, A site tor a church as been selected on the heights on the county road just beyond the limits ofthe park. ‘The work of clearing up the grounds has been commenced. ‘The names for streets and avenues have not yet been decided on by the cler- ical Syndicate, but it is stated that such names as Smithson, Baird, Dana, and Argyle will be chosen, za Mowebinl td THE DISTRICT REPUBLICAN CON- VENTION. Goxsip Already Started and Candidates i ‘Talked of ‘The District Republican nominating convention to meet next spring, to choose two delegates to Tepresent the District at the Republican Presiden- tial convention, has cast its shadow a long way ahead, Already there is talk among the leaders of the colored Republicans here as to the candi- dates, One of them, talking to a Stax reporter, explained the harmony that prevailed this year in arrangements for the emancipation celebration, “You see,” he said, “the party that gets control of the organization this year will have the upper hand next year, when it comes to organize for the ENDICOTT AND SHERIDAN. ‘The Secretary and the Licutenant-Gen- eral Not in Harmony. Conflicts of authority between the Secretary of War and the Lteutenant-General are becoming of frequent occurrence. General Sheridan was op- Posed to the order limiting the term of service of Staff officers to four years, holding that the gene- Tal officers should have the right of keeping officers With them as long as they wished. No exceptions Were made in enforcing the order, for the Sec- retary was determined to break up the custom of allowing certain officers to retain com- fortable berths year after year. AS a natural consequence of this determination an order was issued a couple of months ago Umiting the terms Of adjutants of regiments and regimental quarter- masters to four years also. There Was MO €X- Pressed opposition to this order. While the Secretary of War was away a short Ume ago, several adjutant appointments were made by colonels, with the approval of Gen. Sher!- dan, of Heutenants serving with light batteries. These appointments did not meet with the ap- Proval of the Secretary, who held, that in justice to the officers of the fegiments, the qdjutants should be selected from among the . lieuten- ants doing actual service with thelr re- gibents. An order was therefore _ issued Testricting the appointment to such officers, and the objectionable appointments were revoked. Gen. Sheridan was out West ai the time. No cor- respondence has taken place between the two offi- ¢ials, and probably none will. It all goes to show, however, as has frequently been stated, thas the Secretary of War and the Lieutenant General do ‘ays work well together in administe the affairs of the Army. = site es AN ALL-DAY PRAYER MEETING. ‘The Ladies of the W. C. T. U. Praying for the Success of the Prohibition Movement in Michigan. In response to the request of Miss Frances E. Wile lard, the president of the Nattonal Woman's Chris- Uan Temperance Union, an all-day prayer meeting ‘Was held to-day in the lecture-room of the Metro- Politan M. E. church, 43 and C streets, beginnin, at 10 a.m. and closing at 4 p.m. The special object of the meeting, as set forth in the request of Miss ‘Willard, was the success of the prohibition move- ment in Michigan, where, on the 4th of April, “the case of the home against the saloon” would be de- termined by the vote of the people. One of the Members of the District Union, under the auspices of which these meetings were held, stated that the contest in Michigan was a very exciting one. Miss Willard and a number of the prominent work- ers in the temperance cause were taking an active part in the canvass, and they looked iorward to the success of the movement In the coming elec- on. ‘The meetings began at 10 o'clock this morning, and the special object for Which the meetings were held was indicated by an inscription suspended above the platforin and across the folds of an American flag, which read “THE HOME OR THE SALOON.” From the reading desk was suspended a silk ‘banner with the inscription “District of Columbia W.C.T.U. The Lord of Hosts 1s with us.” Upon a table wasa large cluster of pure white lili ‘There was a large number of ladies present when Mrs. Dr. Newman, who was designated to. conduct, the services for te first haif hour, stepped in front of the platform and said that thé services would begin by singing there is Fountain.” The Jadies joined heartily in the song, and upon its concluston alt ladies knelt and engaged in sient prayer, which was closed by their repeating to- ether'the Lord’s Prayer. While still upon thelr knees the ladies sang a verse of the hymn, “Nearer Iny God to Thee.” Mrs, Newman then gave a short ible reading ahd expressed the hope that, during the day the central thought of the remarks and prayers would be the success of the movement In Michigan agatnst the terribie crime of the trafic in strong drink. THE YASTOR OF THR CHRISTIAN CHURCH. In carrying out the program,Which was arranged so that foreach bait hour the exercises would be conducted by a different person, a number of the Iniuisters of the city joining with the ladies, Rev. dr. Newnan promptiy at half pagt ten introduced Hey. Dé. Power, the pastor of the Christian Church, Who spoke vf The Importance of prayer and its great power i shaping human affairs He thought that in prayer was ‘found the most effective ‘Weapoy against the lquor traffic, the evil ot which Was so far-reaching and so fatal'to human happl- ness and After he had concluded his re- marks, he that prayers be offered for the Succeskof the movement in Michigan. Several ladies made fervent prayers asking Divine aid and assistance In the efforts being made to check the evils or intemperance. ‘Special petitions were of- fered Tor Miss Willard and the other ladies of the National Union who were engaged in the cam- paign in Michigan. Reference was made to the Yolume of prayers which was going up to-day from all parts of the country for this one ob- ject. At 11 o'clock Mrs. La Fetra, the president of the W. C. 'T. Unton of the Disfrict, and Mrs. Geo, L. Clark, the superintendent of ‘the evangelistic de- artuient, took seats upon the platform, Mrs. La tra invited Mrs. Clara Roach, who Was in the andience, to come to the platform, and the invita- Uon was aceepted. PRAYING FOR THE DISTRICT COMMISSIONERS. Rev. Dr. J.A. Price then took charge of the meet- ing, and in th: course of his prayer he asked God that the Commissioners of the District should have respect for their oaths and should not mock and laugh when appeals were made them in behalf of sons and daughters Who Were belug ruined by the juor traffic. in his remarks he said that the people in Micht- gan would not hear thelr prayers, but It was a biessed thought that God would. He spoke of the importance of fervent, united” prayer, made in falth, for in proportion to the faith dnd belter, with’ due regard to the will of God, answers t prayer might be expected. He thought that it was in accordance with the will of God to pray against the liquor trafic. He did not suppose that ahy one thought it was wrong for them to pray for the Success of prohibition in Michigan, But nO one expected the liquor-sellers to meet and pray for the success of their business, “They could not do it. Their trafic was opposed to everything ‘Ubat was good in men, and they could not expect the blessing of God. JOSHUA'S VICTORY. Rev. Dr. H.R. Naylor took charge of the ser- Vices at half-past 11, and read the incident in the Old Testament of the victory under Joshua while the hands of Moses were held up. He thought that in the same way the victory would come to the crusaders against the powerofrum. They might be weak and unknown, but they had the power and strength that comes from faith in God and prayer.
