Amid the clanking of switching freight cars and street and Maryland avenue last nignt, Dr. 1. B. Donaldson called to order the meeting of Citizens’ Association No. 1. There were eighteen mem- bers present at the opening of the meeting, which was stated by the president to be called for the consideration of the bill reported by the select Committee to the Committee of One Hundred, the ‘object of which is to change the form of govern- ment of the District. The resignations of Messrs. A. H. Stephenson and Geo. White, as members of he association, were read and accepted. THE RAILROAD QUESTION. Mr. P. N. Dwyer introduced a resolution setting forth that in view of the fact that the probiera of relieving the southwest section of the city from the railroad nutsance had been left to the Commit- te of One Hundred, and that the committee, al- though given opportunity for a heariug before the Senate District committee, failed to improve the ‘tunity, and has done nothing whatever, the association No. 1 should now take back the care of the fight or else leave the railroad aione in ts glory. ‘The chairman thought that, 1t would be better to give the subcommittee in charge of the matter wea nes to do something. i “It's about time for them to do something!” terrupted Mr. Dwyer. “Yes,” coutinued Dr. they have a good exe show signs of activit; indi that.’ they will soon us wait before passing ‘such a resolution of censure.” feel Just as badiy, perhaps, toward this rafl- rea sable Sy ae a he retary, “but it ts only fair for us to hear from the! report before we censure them.

This Was lost, eight in favor and twelve against. ‘TRE PRESIDENT DECIDES THE QUESTION. ‘Then Dr. Allen’s resolution was read again and the vote taken.

Parsons, the attorney of the sugar trust, Was first put upon the stand, and in answer toa question as tothe mode of formation of the sugar trust, he said, there was a deed or agreement which created a board called“the sugar refiners company.” He Was a member of that board by election to that. place heid by one of the inal members. At the request of Representative Bacon he produced a copy of the nt with the exception that the part relating to the interest held by the Various members of the board in the capitalization of the company was eliminated from the copy, as that was regarded as a private matter and due which could have no bearing on the investigation, The board was composed Of eleven persons and Theo.
