It Only Involves Scrubbing Brushes— |The Britton-Reed Nuptials at the Me- | Mr. Brown’s Whereabouts as Much a Other Changes May Come “‘Later On.” There has been quite an important change made at the pension building since Gen. Raum became commissioner. The floors of the en- | riage trances and galleries of the building have been treated to @ good scrubbing and the force of laborers are at work in the building. Capt. Filler, the new made the pre- diction that he would have the building look as clean as & new pin and it seems as if he was go- ing to do so, There are so many visitors to the building every day that it is dificult to maintain ite | im cleanly appearance. Gen. Raum wants it done and it is likely that his wish will be gratified. The commissioner had a good many callers to- day and in addition large mail which en- groseed his attention during the greater por- tion of the day. Col. Alexander, who was formerly fifth auditor and for a time during the presidential campaign was private secretary to Gen. Harri- son, Was among the callers today. He is now mite gre Buffaio. Whether uae ae suade: accept office again is ci not been decide: ON THE QUI VIVE. A number of members of Congress drop in to see Gen. Raum, with the expectation that there will be changes in the higher positions in the paske office. It seems to be a pretty general impression that nearly all the offici: had a slice of the surplus, and that in consequence there will be a general turnout. Of course this in an entirely erroneous idea, as cme tively few of the entire number of employes ext icipated in the rerating festival Gen. jum’s attention, however, 1s being called each day to men whose services, he is told, would be valuable in making his administration a suc- cess. He hears what is to be said, but so far he has kept his own counsel and given no indica- tionof what changes he proposes to make, The employes who think that their official heads are in ange are busy in marshaling their influence with the view of coming down in force upon the commissioner at the first ™m. —_.___ THE CASE OF CONSUL LEWIS. Another Damaging Statement Made by Ramon Azogue. Ramon Azoque, the naturalized Moor, who appeared yesterday before Secrotary Blaine as a witness in the investigation of the charge: against Consul Wm. Reed Lewis, had a talk with Mr. Walker Blaine this morning in reference to his claim for salary still due him as intcrpreter at the consulate at Tangiers, HIS SALARY WITHHELD. He says that his salary for fifteen months was withheld by Lewis and that the latter made appear to the de- | olageree that he Aseace) had en dismissed, but wished to be allowed to remain in service without salary. Asa refuta- tion of this fact he exhibits a letter from Lewis, dated August 1, which proves that Lewis then considered him in his employ. The vouchers were sigued by an errand boy as interpreter. BLANK PROTECTION CERTIFICATES FOR SALE. Azoque says that Lewis, in order to silence his calls for salary, g him a number of blank protection certificates bearing his signa- ture and the seal of the United States, and told him to sell them for as much as he could get for them and to pocket the money. This is it against the law, and Azoque laid the blanks before the Secretary, who imme- diately sent to Lewis the cablegram which led to his recall, Azoque took counsel with a neighboring United States consul, who was dumbfounded at Lewis’ action. The hear- ing of the case will be continued Monday. PREVENTION OF DIPHTHERIA, Legislation Recommended by the Com- mittee of the Medical Society. The medical society of the District has made public the report of the committee on the question of the adequacy of the present regu- lations for the prevention of diptheria in Washington, which will be considered at tho meeting of the society on the 30th of this month. The report states that it is found that no physician in the District nor other person is required to notify the health officer of the ex- istence of any contagious disease except that of small-pox. There was a law passed by the legislative assembly of the District in July, 1872, authorizing the board of health whenever the District was threatened with an epidemic to make regulations to Yate! its But this was superceded by a resolution of Congress, which made rogulations re- garding small-pox, but omitted anything relating to scarlet fever, diphtheria or measles, and at present THE HEALTH OFFICER HAS NO POWER to make regulations affecting these diseases, The health officer could, indeed, the report says, inspect school houses when disease is known to be present, but he has no means of knowing this except by common rnmor, and when we reflect on the various ways in which scarlet fever and diphtheria are propogated, mainly by means of infected clothing worn on the persons of children, or other persons exposed to the disease in the street cars and other public vehicles, dispensaries, school houses, Sunday schools, churches, &c., the committee are sure that the influence of this society could make itself felt in the community in no better way than by recommending that a suitable committee of discreet members of the society be appointed to urge upon the District committees of the House and Senate THE NECESSITY FOR A LAW to meet the requirements of the case, The growth of the city and increase in the number of achools, they think, makes it very important that some regulations should be made to pre- vent the spread of these diseases. They re- commend that every scholar in the public schools be required to produce a health cer- tificate from the family physician declaring that the scholar has been vacinated, and that he has not, within a period of thirty oar been exposed to measles, scarlet fever or diphtheria at Soraspand that a penalty should be attached for the violation of this regulation. They recommend that the law relating to smallpox be amended so as to include within its provisions these other diseases, and that the regulations requiring isolation, warning sig- nals, &c., be strictly enforced. ——»—_— The President’s Callers Today.

Mr. Brown | had an engagement to meet Mr. McDevitt at 1260 o'osk Tosnda, bat when be failed to | keep the appointment nothing was thought of it as it was supposed that he would appear later in the day. had not the slightest idea that he would leave the city without first telling them where he was going and what clue he had All along Mr. Brown had Belle bad gone to Virginia and that he had gone to sce whether there was any truth in the rumor or not. Nothing definite could, how- coat er Lnetet bin : even fessing intentions. As cae published in Tux Sran, Belle spent her vacation near Rectortown, which is on the Manassas branch of the Virginia Mid- land cree about the thirty miles from Alexandria, It was naturally supposed tosome | persons that the father oe was a probability that she made friends with some young farmers whom she had proba- bly eloped. MR. BROWN FIRST WENT TO ALEXANDRIA. This morning a Stax reporter received relia- ble information that Mr. Brown had gone to Alexandria, and from there it was thought he went in the direction of Rectortown. Several of the railroad employes at the Virginia Mid- land station remembered seeing such « man at the station Tuesday afternoon, put they did not know where he went. They thought, how- ever, that he went away on the Manassas Branch road. The ticket agent, Mr. Morse, did not remember seeing such a person at the de- pot, but did remem! selling several tickets tor Rectortown on the afternoon train. AN IMPORTANT CLUE. This afternoon a Stam reporter came in pos- Session of what may prove to be an important clue, W. E. Newman, conductor on the Alex- andria train, and Brakeman O. Klinger, tell of passenger on their train who went to Quantico, “It was on Friday, the 11th instant,” said the conductor to Tae Star ap ae “The train left here at 7:45 o'clock inthe morning. Among | the passengers was a yor ly about eighteen years * old. © owas oa blonde. When she got on the train she had two or three small bundles and presented # ticket for Quantico, It is an unusual thing | to have rag eqeamncxiy to that point and for that reason the young lady attracted my at-| tention, She did not look hike she lived in the country and for the reason that she was a stranger I particularly noticed her.” “What kind of clothing did she wear?” asked the reporter. “I do not know for sure,” be replied, “but | I think she wore a dark cloak of some sort.” “Did you notice which way she went after she got off the train?” queried the reporter. j “Yes,” he replied, “the brakeman lielped her off the train and she went in the direction of the river. I thought she was going to Mra. King’s house, but asked Mrs. King about it and she said that the lady was not visiting er. “Do you know how many honses there are in that vicinity?” “I think there is only house between Mrs. —* and the river and colored occupy that.” r. Newman said that he had spoken to Mr. a but that he did not then think of the gir THE BRAKEMAN'S STORY was a fall corroboration of what Mr. Newman said. He was positive as to the appearance of the girl. He remembered that she wore a long | dark cloak, and also had a black veil tied about | ber head that nearly covered her face. j RECTORTOWN PEOPLE KNOW NOTHING. There were several passengers on the Vir- ginia Midland train that arrived here today who came directly from Rectortown, but none of them seemed to know any- thing of Belle Brown's disappearance. One man said that he remembered a/ strange young lady who was visiting near there lastsummer, but he didnot know who she was, | nor did he know with whom she stopped. | None of them remembered having seen a man answering Mr. Brown's description neur the town this week. Nothing had been heard up to 2:30 p-m. at the Brown residence on 14th street of either Mr. Brown or the missing girl. The family at that house still expressed themselves as en- | tirely ignorant of whereabouts of cither Mr. Brown or Belle, nn WASHINGTON NEWS AND GOSSIP. Maryiaxp axp Vinorsta SPostwastens,— Samuel P.
