Under the provisions of the law there will be anincrease of 56 men, which will give the force a total at the beginning of the next fiscal year of 376 men, There will be 1 major and superintendent, 1 captain, 2 inspectors, 9 lieu- tenants, 28 sergeants, 185 privates of class one, and 150 privates of class two. What chiefly in- terests, the present members of the force are the promotions and other changes to be made. There will be 6 privates made sergeants. The applicants for romotions are numerous, In this regard it is hinted that there are to be some surprising changes. Heretofore the ser- geants have heen taken from the list of those who have been designated acting sergeants, These officers perform the duties of sergeants, for which they receive no additional compen- sation. The full sergeants receive an advance of $5 on the pay of second-class privates, It is said that some of the present acting sergeants are to be reduced to ranks and that the promotions will be made from the privates of the second-class, In suchan event there would be a larger number of promotions,which would BARGAINS_PIAN Le rd (3-1 1 st nw.

Church South was opened here this morning at the Southern Methodist church on Washington street. There are ministers and lay representatives from all the Southern Meth- dist churches in Northern Virginia, West Vir- ginia, and Maryland, andthe District of Colum- ia, The Mount Vernon Place M. E. church, Rey. 8. W. Haddaway, and its mission at Blake hall, South Washington, are represented. There are some 210 ministers in connection with this conference, and it has some 450 churches and nearly 50,000 members within conference bounds. "Its sessions were held for nearly one hundred years in connection with the M. E. church, but there are now two Balti- more conferences, one just now concluded its one hundred and fifth session in Baltimore and the other is opening its one hundred and fifth session at Alexandria. Bishop Alpheus W. Wil- son fo are the conference t morning at 9 o'clock, and after devotional exercises for half an hour the roll was called, a new secretary elected, vice Dr. Martin, deceased, the bar of the conference was fixed, and the committees having been announced, the conference pro- ceeded with the disciplinary questions. The Rev. James E. Armstrong, of Front Royal, Va. was chosen secretary, vice Rev. Dr. Martin, de- ceased, and Rev. J. Watts Shoaff, of Baltimore, assistant secretary, vice Dr. Armstrong. pro- moted from assistant secretary to be secretary. The call on presiding elders for reports occu- pied the morning session. Crrx Counci.—The city council, last night, held its March meeting. President Marbury presided in the aldermen and President Sweeney in the common council. The boards concurred in ordering the payment of a bill of #40.50 to Ma. Wm. Hammond for oyster shells furnished for suburban streetways. They also referred an application of the heirs of Peter Robinson for a recone; property bid in by the city at tax sale, The aldermen made an order granting to the Postal Telegraph com- pany the right of way for their poles and wires from the west end of the city, on King street, to West street, thence to Oronoko, thence to Pen- dleton, thence to Fairfax, thence to Union, thence on King to Fairfax where the office of the company will be loca’ The council non- concurred in this action and recommmitted the matter, directing the committee on streets to report an ordinance giving the right of way to the Postal company on condition that a bond be executed with ample surety that the franchises of the company will not be transferred. In- quiry was made in the council as to what had become of the resolutions of that board, passed 10 to 2, in regard to the Alexandria Water com- pany. It appeared that these resolutions were still in the board of aldermen. The council adjourned to meet on the fourth Tuesday of March, but the alderman made no provision for an earlier meeting than the regular session on the second Tuesday of April. Deatu or Wx. P.

BARRY, OF THE “BROOKLYN TIMES,” MIS SING SINCE THE INAUGURATION. Inquiry has been made of the police concern- ing the whereabouts of Thos.

On the night of March 5 he was arrested here by Policeman Fenton for intoxication. He was released the following morning. The police were unable to give any further information concerning Barry. a Wants $100,000 From Mr. Hawkins. A PENSIONER WHO CLAIMS TO HAVE BEEN WRONGED BY THE ASSISTANT SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR, To-day Chas. Lovely, of Vermont, by Mr. J. G. Bigelow, his attorney, entered suit against Daniel L. Hawkins, assistant secretary of the interior for $100,000 damages, The plaintiff sets forth that he served in company “F,” eleventh Vermont volunteers, in the rebellion, and sustained wounds which resulted in the loss of his leftarm near the shoulder and = leg at the thigh, and became thereby so abled as to require the attendance of another person; that the laws provide for his disabilit: a pension of 325 per month from June 6, 1866; $31.25 per month from June 4, 1872 month from June 4, 1874, and $72 per month from June 17, 1878; that Secretary Zachariah Chandler, by a departmental ruling in the case of Henry Schmidt, dated Feb. 11, 1876, decided that the greater loss of an arm and leg near the body, as in the case of Schmidt and. plaintiff, entitled the pensioner to above rates, and that Congress by the act of February 28, 1877, con- firmed said decision as the correct interpreta- tion of the law, and the plaintiff became there- by entitled to the like rates of pension granted Schmidt. He states that he filed his petition with the. commissioner of pensions on the 27th of June, 1837, praying for the reissuance of his certificate at the above rates, and alleges that the commis- sioner of pensions well knew that he was law- fully entitled to relief, but intending to defraud the plaintiff out of his vested rights under the law, unlawfully ruled in his case that the laws enacted by Congress grant the same rate of pensions for cither the loss of his arm or leg as for iy combined loss of both, namely, $36 per mont Re further alleges that from this ier | by the commissioner of pensions he appeale to the Secretary of the Interior, and that his appeal came before the defendant for his official action and decision as such assistant secretary, and avers that the defendant wickedly intend- ing to injure the plaintiff. knowingly and ma- liciously ruled that the laws in plaintiff's case granted no greater rate of pension for the com- bined loss of his arm near the shoulder and leg at the thigh thun for either of such losses. The plaintiff further alleges that he has been de- frauded out of about 36,000 arrears of pension anda monthly increase of $36 by the official misconduct of the defendant, and been reduced to circumstances of great poverty and subjected to great worriment of body and mind. He claims on this account a judgment against the defendant in the sum of $100,000. SRE BEL leep and straighten out.

Enander has distinguished himself not only as an editor, but also as the author of a large historical work, the first “History of the United States” ever published in the Swedish (4874-1881), a work translated into Danish, Nor wegian and partly into English. He has also contributed to literary i many valuable articles on northern m; aud Icelandic ‘Sagas.” Mr. Enander is an eloquent lecturer esd paewrage speaker, As such be has faithfully and with great success worked in the interest of the republican party at every politi- cal campaign since his arrival in this sonst. In 1879 the governor of Llinois appointed Mr. Enander a member of the state board of educa- tion, and he was reappointed in 1881. He is an honorary member of a number of literary and scientific societies in America and in Europe. A Convention of Irish Societies.
