As appears tn the Teport of the school board proceedings last night, out {of the same affair has grown another charge, made by Mr. W. ©. Chase against Trustee Johnson, to the effect that Mr. Johnson had slandered Mr. Brown. The whole matter has ex- cited considerable comment among those Interested in the public schools The charge against Mr. Brown, and which Mr. Johnson is charged with repeating, 1s that Mr. Brown had had improper relations with a female teacher. This teacher resigned a few days ), and it Is asserted ‘that ‘she herselt made the abousation against Mr. Brown.

Killits, Max Hansmann, L. W. Seely, and Rudolph Kauffmann, called upon the District Commissioners at 11° o'clock this morning by appointment, to confer with them re- garding the new police regulations so far as they affect the riding of bicycles 1n the street, with a ‘view of securing a definite understanding of what will be required of wheelmen, and of calling atten. tion to some potnts in connection with the use of the bell and lamp on bieyeles. Mr. Dodge, on behalt of the committee, stated to the Commissioners that the committee had no intention of antagontz- ing the regulations, but, on the contrary, were as anxious as the Commissioners for the enforcement orregulations Which would Insure the safety of pedestrians, Who are really not In ag much danger Troin collisions as the wheelmen, In this connec- Uon he referred toa letter written to the District Commissioners July 6, 1881, by the Capital club, earnestiy requesting the enforcement of regula: tons requirtus the Use of bells and lamps on bic: cles. ‘The Couimissioners did not then deem ste Precautions necessary, but the club, nevertheless, required ‘the members to carry bells and lamps until they were satistied from experience that they | did not meet the exigencies of vie cuse, Mr. Dodge cited us objections Lo the use of such bells atid lamps as can now be obtalued, that the sudden alarm of a bell 1g construed as'an unauthorized order to clear the road, and nas the educt of startling and disconcerting a pedestrian, making A collision much more likely than If the fider ha passed unseen and unh He held also that a continuously ringing bell would be a public nuisance and would not be effective, Ibwas shown that the regulations in unis respect are open to miscoustruction, one section requiring. the sound- ing of a ght bel or gong alter sundown and another requiring @ bell “to be sounded con- tinuously by tne revolution of the wheel, Bicycle lamps, at night, Mr. Dodge sald, ure ob- Jectionable because they illuminate the road directly In front of the wheel, but, on account of the glare, prevent the rider trom seeing dis- Unetly any distance in frontof him, thereby ren- dering pedestrians more Hable to be collided with than If the Wheelian’s vision was nob ob- structed, “It was thought, however, that a lamp without a Fellector might’ prove ‘ullobjectionable, ‘Te Commissioners Ustened with close attention tothe remarks, and promised to change the regu- lations so that they would not be open to intscon- struction, and also expressed a willingness to make any modifications that might be deemed de- Sirable after careful consideration, ‘The commit- tee was requested to subinit its Views in writing. ———— ‘To Prohibit Polygamy, AN IMPORTANT MOVE IN THE MOKMON CONBTITU- TIONAL CONVENTION. ‘The most important step yet taken in the Mor mon Constitutional Convention was made in Salt Lake City yesterday, when the appropriate com- mittee reported the following sections Article 14, section 12.

Wit ness would believe Turner in some matters, in others he would not, Dr. Reading corroborated his wife's testimony as. to the time Mr. ‘Todd left his house that morning.

Other aMdavits were submitted, but all of them were simply confirmatory as to evidence already tn. AN AMUSING INCIDENT occurred just here. Rev. Mr. Fleming said he observed that Brother Wolfe, of the Lexington Presbytery, was in the room, and he moved that he be Invited to sit as a corresponding member, ‘This motion prevailed, and a fne-looking gentle- man arose and sald: “I am of the New York Pres- bytery, not the Lexington.” “That 1s not the gentleman I referred to,” sald ‘Mr. Fleming, at the same time pointing ‘at the Wolfe he hid meant.

Kidwell, and Albert Barrett— at Work at Waterloo as employes of the National Press Brick Company, went to Alexandria yester- day and got on a spree. By 7 o'clock they were all intoxicated, and when they boarded the evening train for this city they were noisy and quarrel- some. The conductor, Harry Myers, did not want them to get on the train, but the men promised to be orderly, and they were allowed to enter the cars, They, however, became so nolsy that the conductor had the train stopped, and with the as- sistance of the brakeman, George Wertenbaker, the bageage-master, Samuel Garnett, and the en- gineer, Jatnes Davis, the men were pit off. ‘They, however, attempted to prevent the trainmen troi returning to the car, and in the struggle Davis was struck in the face with a brick, and Werten- baker in Ye abdomen Just below the sternum with a “heavy stone, which, it 1s sald, Was thrown by William | Kidwell. | Werten- aker sani grout a ry find the Ave men,trightened at shat they had done, ran away. Wertenbaker was placed on the cars, Dut by the time the train reached the Long Bridge he was dead. The cause of death was Internal hemorrhage. ‘The struggle with the gang took place at St. Asaph’s station, and from there the police authorities in Alexandra and this city Were notified. By the prompt action of the police all the men were soon afterward arrested along the rafiroad, and were taken to Alexandria, where they were locked up. They are all young men. ‘The three Kidwells are brothe: ‘The dead man, Wertenbaker, was but twenty. two years of age, and resided at 16 I street northeast, with his'parents. When hisfather was informed ‘last evening of the death of his son he fell to the floor in an unconscious condition, and the physician thought that he was in a precarious state from the shock to his nervous system. ‘The passengers on the train did not interfere in the affair, and if is stated offered no assistance to the trainmen. ‘THR DEATH OCCURRED IN VIRGINIA. Coroner Patterson, of the District, was notified of the case and the following Jury of inquest was summoned: Edward Burke, John Crogan, Patrick Cusick, Geo. H. Gill, Chas. Dietz, and R. E. Davis. It was stated that ‘Wertenbaker had died in Vir- ginta, and in order vo establish that fact and settle the question of jurisdiction the coroner heard the evidence of two witnesses, as follows: Robt. H. Kemp, a passenger, testified that Wertenbaker diéd on the train Jhst south of the Long Bridge. Witness fell his heart and pulse and there was no respiration. His face had begun to discolor. Harry J. Meyers, the conductor on the train, was of the pinion that Wertenbaker died in Virginia. His face had turned purple and he had ceased to breathe. Witness remarked that he was dead be- fore the train arrived at the bridge. ‘The coroner decided that the Virginia authorl- tes had Jurisdiction in the case, and gave a cer- Uflcate of death from a wound tn the stomach. A number of Witnesses had ‘been summoned from Alexandria, The witnesses accompanied the re- mains on the 12 o'clock train to Alexandria, where a.coroner’s jury had been notified to assemble at ‘THE INQUEST TO BE HELD IN ALEXANDRIA. ‘The body of Wertenbaker arrived in Alexandria on the 12:04 train, on which he would have been on duty had he not been killed. Persons about the station in Alexandria said that the crew on the train Are $0 overworked that, toward the after- noon they are ely tired out and tn no con- dition todefend themselves against ruflians who may attack them. They star¢ in the morn- ing at 6:05 o'clock and make eighteen single uips between Alexandria and Washingtom the last trip ending about 10:30 o'clock, making aday’s work of more than sixteen hours. The question arose whether Dr. Powell, the Alexandria city coroner, could hold an inquest or not. It was claimed that as the blow was inflicted and the death occurred in Alexandria County the inquest would have.to be held by the County corouer, Dr. Birch, who lives near Arlington. It was fnally declaéd by Mr. Marbury; the corporation attorney, that the inquest would have to be held by Coronet Birch, and a messenger was sent to arlington after that dfictal, Coroner Powell was tound by a Star reporter after considerable delay, and he decided to hold the inquest in the city of Alexandria this afternoon, ‘The body was taken to Wheatley’s un- dertaking establishment, ‘THE PRISONSRS COMMITTED. ‘The mayor of Alexandria this afternoon, with- out hearing the full case against the Kidwells and Barry, for the murder of the brakeman, Geo.
