Cars Run by Electricity from a Storage * Battery on the Brightwood Road. Capt. A. A. Thomas, the president of the Brightwood railway company, has returned from a trip to the north and east. The special object of his trip was to investigate the subject of motors for street railways. He expects that the tracks for the new road will be laid on the ‘th-street road from the Rock Creek Church road to Brightwood by the 1st of September and Mr, Thomas was anxious to get something better than horses; He was shown s motor car which the Stephensons, the well-known car builders of New York, are now b and was a Pleased with the results which these mi sccomplish. The cars are run by elec- tricity from a storage battery. The latter is fo under the seats, and when the elec- icity is exhausted the supply is renewed. ‘TWELVE MILES BEFORE THE BATTERIES ARE EX- BAUSTED. Mr. Thomas said that he rode 12 miles on one of the cars and was told that the same distance could be made before the batteries were ex- hausted. He has decided to give this motor a trial on the new road. Next week the president of the Julian traction. company, which controls this motor, will visit the city and go over the route of the new road. It is expected that the road will be finished by September 1, and then @ new motor car will be tested. Mr. Thomas said that the electricity for the batteries can be procured from the wires of the Electric lighting company of this city. Mr. Thomas says that the new cars resemble Med ( much the cars now used on the Eckington roa and are really very fine specimens of car build- ing. —_—__. CATTLE FOR EXPORT. Secretary Rusk’s Precautions to Pre- vent Possibility of Infection. Secretary Rusk, as a result of his conference in New York, has found it necessary to supple- ment bis circular of July 3, preecribing regula- tions and rules for disinfection in the trans- Portation of cattle from the Texas fever dis- strict, with an additional order referring par- ticularly to the special precautions necessary to prevent any possibility of the infection of cattle selected for export. The following order has been issued as supplementary to that of July 3 and is addressed ‘to the managers and agents of transportation companies of the United States”: GROWTH OF THE CATTLE EXPORT TRADE. “In addition to my order of July 3, 1889, in regard to cleaning and disinfecting cars and pens which have been occupied by cattle liable to disseminate splenetic or Texas fever I de- sire to impress upon you the importance of special precautions to prevent the infection of cattle which have been selected for exporta- tion. The number of cattle shipped in Europe has rapidly increased and the trade is probably more promising than ever before, This re- lieves our markets, gives new vigor to the cat- tle industry, and proportionally increases the business of transportation companies, FEARS OF INFECTION. “It is feared by shippers that some of these export cattle may become infected from cars which have carried southern cattle before the regulations of July 3, 1889, went into effect. Asingle shipment of animals thus affected might lead other countries to prohibit the en- trance of our cattle and cofftequently ruin this trade, which is now of so much #1 ce to the country. Not desiring at present to make @ regulation requiring that all stock cars should be cleaned and disinfected before cattle are loaded into them I wouid earnestly request the managers of all transportation companies doing business between the interior and the seaboard to make provision whereby all cars im which cattle for export are to be transported shall be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected previous to loading. in accordance with the in- structions contained in my order of July 3, ARRANGEMENTS IN NEW YORK. “Arrangements have been made at New York by which one yard, accessible to all railroad companies, has beeen set apart exclusively for export travel, I understand that one of the trunk lines between Chicago and New York has already at the request of shippers instructed its agents to furnish disinfected cars for such cattle, and I trust that all others will immedi- ately give the export trade the benefit of sim- ilar precautions, thus avoiding the necessity for an extension of the order of July 3 to in- clude all cars in which cattle are transported.” GOVERNMENT TELEGRAMS. Allowing the One Cent a Word Rate Until the Controversy is Settled. Pending the final settlement of the govern- ment telegraph rate question the Postmaster General bas given instructions to the acting secretary of the treasury to consider the one- cent rate as prevailing until the official pro- mulgation of an order fixing another rate of compensation, A ruling of this sort will naturally embrace the business of other de- partments. This action is intended only to bridge over the temporary difficulties that arose under the controversy, Agents of the government were forced to pay commercial rates for messages and were under orders to pay only the mill-a- word rate, thus being forced to run the risk of having their accounts disallowed, THERE 18 SOME DOUBT, however, as to whether or not the telegraph company will accept this expedient pending the final decision, From the hints that have been thrown out it is not unlikely that they will continue to charge the commercial rates under the plea that with the close of the fiscal year all fixed rates were ended, and that they ave a legal right to charge their regular rates for any ye that may be rendered between that time and the date of the signing of the new contract. This is in direct opposition to THE DECISION OF CONTROLLER LAWRENCE, quoted in Saturday's Star, to the effect that new rates are retroactive back to the date of the expiration of the old contract, but this de- cision is not generally looked upon as having sufficient legal strength to stand incourt. In fact, Judge Durham overruled it at his first op- | poor » and since then his word has been ‘ollowed. But the fact that the Postmaster General gave the company notice before the close of the fiscal year that after July 1 the government rate should be a mill a word seems to give the government the right to claim that whenever the controversy is settled that rate Pople] eg po pe having prevailed a end of the old contract, regardless o! cisions by the first Proposed Monument to John Brown.

THE COMING CONVENTION. Six Democratic Richmonds in the Vir- ginia Field. Special Dispatch to Tae [EVENING Star. Brommoxp, Va., Aug. 13.—Although the democratic convention will not be called to- gether until noon tomorrow nearly one-half of the 1,500 delegates are in the city now. They swarm in the Ballard-Exchange hotel and a host of leading democrats in the state were on hand last night to greet Senator Barbour, chairman of the state committee, who arrived from Washington last night. Today the man- agers of the different candidates for governor have been trying to reach the ear of the Sen- ator to sound the praises @nd prospects of their respective principals, e six candidates who are making the friendly fight. for governor are as follow! Capt. P. Ww McKinney, Richard F, Beirne, Col C. T. O’Ferrall, Jno. T. Harris, 8. W. Venable, J. Hoge Tyler. Capt. McKinney is a lawyer of Farmville, fifty-five years of age, an ex-confederate and a candidate for governor against Fitz Lee in 1885. He was the democratic nominee for at- torney general in 1881. Thistime he comes to Richmond leading the string with many com- mitted delegates. Capt. McKinney is rich in opularity if not in other worldly possessions. See canvassed the state frequently he is widely known on the hustings. Richard F, Beirne is the editor and owner of the State newspaper. He has no confederate record. being not over thirty-five years of age, agraduate of Randolph-Macon and a student in Germany, a good talker, and a favorite among the editors of the state. Hon. C. T. O’Ferrall, who is now serving his fourth term in Congress, rose from the ranks to the grade of colonel in the confederate army. He has been a judge in Rockingham, a member of the legislature, an original read- juster, and is a moderate tariff reformer. Hon. John T. Harris, like Mr. O’Ferrall, is from Rockingham, a lawyer who has served several terms in Congress, and is a well-known figure in Washington. Mr. J. Hoge Tyler of Pulaski county is a pro- gressive farmer about forty-three years of age who has served in the state senate and house of delegates and is a prominent. member of the Farmers’ Alliance, Capt. 8S. W. Venable of Petersburg has al- ready been referred to in these dispatches and his record and capabilities given. The reports from the primary elections all over the state indicate that Phil McKinney of Farmville is apparently in the lead of the race for the gov- ernorship, but it is by no means certain that he will win the nomination, He isasortof re- siduary legatee and may not reach his inher- itance. His friends figure out more than 600 votes for him. The supporters of R. F. Beirne are well organized and are sure that they have 400 delegates, Representative C. T, O'Ferrall says he is sure of 478 votes on the first ballot. ‘That uses up all the votes, yet J. Hoge Tyler, the candidate of the farmers’ alliance, and ex- Representative J. T. Harris each claim a strong body of supporters, Looming up behind all these and threaten- ing all is Capt. Venable, who is free from any embarrassing record anda candidate strong in the support of Senator Barbour. It is yet too early to predict his nomination, yet it is not improbable that the convention will eventually combine upon him, ‘he tariff question is to be kept down, if possible, by dwelling a the importance of democratic control and the rebuke of Mahoneism. When Gov. Lee was nominated Phil McKinney was the leading candidate in opposition to Lee and Barbour was for him. Daniel was for Lee and Daniel and Lee won. At that time, however, there was a fight for the senatorship in pros- pect, and the test of strength was not like that now about to be made. Barbour and Daniel are both Senators and both are anxious that the party shall win the election. If Venable is nominated the candidate for lieutenant gov- ernor will probably be J. Hoge Tyler, the can- didate for governor of the farmers’ alli IDA HARRISON’S STORY. Her Abductor and Assistants Held for Examination. New York, Aug. 13.—Agents of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children ap- peared against Hannah Pearlstein for the abduction of Ida Harrison, fourtven years of age, in the Essex Market police court this morning, and Julius, the son of Mrs, Pearl- stein, Joseph Goetz, Jacob Blum, Jacob Barron and Wolf Marshon forcriminal assault upon the irl, The girl testified that on Saturday night 8. Pearlstein visited her mother’s vegetable stand and [ashen some groceries, After trying to induce the girl to leave home and to live with her on the = that she would have nothing to do and wear nice silk dresses and lots of jewelry, the girl became frightened and attempted to leave, but Mrs, Pearlstein pushed her into a small room and locked the door, The girl led a horrible life in her prison, She was visited by the five young men and brutally assaulted, Sunday she escaped, but was captured and brought back. Then the woman cuther hair off. ¥« atternoon Ida found a chance to escape and did so, In court one of the prisoners, Jacob Bh said to one of the detectives: “Will it be right if I marry the girl?” Dr the takin, of her testimony the complainant fainted sev- eral times, All the prisoners were held without bail for examinati ———-___ £x-President Allen Pleads Guilty. New Yorg, Aug. 13.—Eben 8. Allen, lately president of the 42d and Grant street ferry railroad company, was arraigned before Judge Gildersleeve. He pleaded ity to the count in the indictment charging with the over- issue of stock. Judge idersleeve then re- manded Allen for sentence until Friday, He = be arraigned later on the charge of forgery.

Charged With Causing the Death of a Young Gir. Bostox, Aug. 13.—Dr,. Henry G. Harper alias Dr. Stanford, physician, was arrested lest night in Cambridge. Dr. Harper came to Cambridge last fall and has since occupied one of the largest and finest residences there. The police some time ago suspected that the doctor ber} conducting an unauthorized 1: -in bh Sra ‘Dl 6 CO! ofa undertaker's sho) e body was accompanied by a certificate of death made out in due form by “Dr, Henry Haverlock.” The police took charge of the remains, and later it was as- certained that the body was that of Nellie Mar- tin of Boston, aged twenty, and that the girl HAD DIED FROM MALPRACTICE. Yesterday a young man named Lemuel 8. McCloud, who had been keeping company with the girl, was arrested. He claims that the girl came to him in her trouble for assistance; that he offered to send her to some refuge and pay her expenses until her child was born natur- ally. He declares that though he sent her to Dr. d made all the arrangements for her stay there he is wholly innocent of any criminal intent and was not responsible for the girl’s condition. HARPER WAS ARRESTED LAST NIGHT. When addressed as Dr. Harper he stoutly denied that that was his name, but clairaed to be Dr. Stanford, He accompanied the officers to the station, and, when questioned by the captain, stated that he was an assistant to Dr. ree and at first denied that any one had died at the house, but finally admitted that a iri had died there and that he had paid for the burial, which was to have taken place esterday afternoon. The domestics who live rs the house = that the prisoner is Dr. Har- per, and that they always knew him by that title, a eens GUILTY OF CONSPIRACY. Verdict of the Senate Court Against Gen. Boulanger.

Pants, Aug. 13.—The state council has an- nulled the elections in twelve cantons in which Gen. Boulanger was elected to the councils general, on the ground that the general was not legally eligible for the position. Gen. Boulanger has written a letter in which he tates thathe gave the sums of money which e is accused of embezzling to the chief clerks in the war office to be used for the relief of widows and orphans of soldiers. Five lodgers in the house of Madame Pourpres. the former mistress of Gen. Boulanger, huve sworn that the general was in Paris on July 15, 1887, the day on which it is alleged he visited the city in FES cree THE ILLINOIS MINERS. Men to be Brought from West Virginia to Take Their Places. Curcaco, Aug. 13.—A special from Streator, TL, says: A new phase of the mining situation has developed which will give the striking miners more trouble than they had previously anticipated. It is said, on good authority, that the Star coal company, whose mine is located at Kangley, near here, had completed arrange- ments by telegraph by which a full quota of men to run their shaft will, inside of thirty days, be landed here from West Virginia, This company has employed during the last year something over 400 men. The Chicago, Wilmington and Vermillion | company, which has always given employment to at least 2,000 men, is also said to be ne- gotiating for men from other points. This company operates mines at Braidwood, La Salle, Seatonville and other places, and has grown tired of the repeated strikes. If the miners of these places desire to resume work they will have to do it quickly, the operators say, as they do not propose to stand idly by and see southern operators taxe all the con- tracts and let the market for their products be forever destroyed. Many of the miners own their homes and are willing to go to work at the prices offered, but are prevented from so doing by the more radical element and the hot-headed foreigners, who are in the majority. as THE AUSTRIAN KAISER, ~ A Grand Civic and Military Display in His Honor. Berurx, Aug. 13.—The weather today is superb and the military. civic and decorative display in honor of Emperor Francis Joseph of Austria are extremely brilliant. A whole army corps of the imperial guards paraded in review before the Austrian Kaiser this morning under the command of Emperor William. First lead- ing the entire corps of guards, the emperor afterward took command of the first regiment of the guards and led them past the imperial visitor, who then headed the regiment bearing his name and marched it past the emperor. The — appeared on horseback and was vociferously cheered. THREW AWAY HIS CRUTCHES. Remarkable Effect of Dr. Brown- Sequard’s Elixir. Cuicaco, Ang. 13.—A Fort Wayne special says: Yesterday afternoon Dr. William H. Myers, one of the first surgeons of the state, tested the Brown-Sequard elixir on Michael Kenny of Columbia City. The patient was so seriously affected with rheumation that he was unable to walk without the aid of crutches.

Loxpox, Aug. 18.—The simple-minded Amer- ican reader who has caught the echoes of the German alarmist press and has become im- pressed with the force of their reasoning that the failure of the czar to visit the German em- peror shows he wants war may innocently imagine that now, that it is definitely announced oe visit is to ne ae papers will their sanguinary tone.

It is pointed out that every element of 8 ceery & is lacking, and it is only too evident that the czar is coming to Berlin now because M. De Giers insists upon it, and be- cause the Russian finance minister, Vyshne- fradeky, finds his schemes blocked on every ourse in Europe because of bis master’s ob- stinacy in refusing to return the German em- peror’s visit. THAT THE CZAR REQUIRED MUCH URGING and entreaty before he would consent to the violence to his own feelings which the visit in- volves is no secret in Berlin. When his famous “only friend” to the prince of Montenegro re- cently had set all Europe in a ferment and Rus- sian securities were tumbling on allthe bourses the czar’s finance minister, in sheer ra- tion, besought him to hasten to Berlin and thus quiet the alarm his ill-timed speech had cre- ated. At that time his maj answered in Russian, and such Russian as drove the fright- ened minister trembli: his mas- ter’s presence. When all this is well known in Germany it is not at all strange that the com- ing visit should fail to be accepted everywhere as A WHITE-WINGED MESSENGER OF PEACE. The presence of the Austrian emperor in the German capital today of course gives the en- thusiastic Berliners a chance to shout them- selves hoarse, but it is devoid of any real sig- nificance. All are looking forward to the czar's coming and speculation as te the outcome is rampant. —-sleene ORANGEMEN CAUSE A ROW. Vitriol Alleged to Have Been Thrown by Catholics. Kinston, Owr., Aug. 13.—There was con- siderable excitement here yesterday, growing out of the celebration by the Orangemen of the relief of Derry.
