TUNNEL IX THIRD STREET AND THE OCCUPATION OF RESERVATION XVII—PROPOSED CELEBRATION OF OPENING OF PENNSYLVANIA AVENUE BRIDGE, President George Francis Dawson occupied the chair and Mr. M. L Weller acted as secre- tary at the meeting of the East Washington citizens association at Washington hall last evening. The reading of the minutes of the last meeting was dispensed with and the chair called for reports of committees. “The committee on the world’s fair site is the only one to report,” said Mr. Weller. “And the committee desires to report,” fol- lowed Mr. Sperry, “that Washington still has the best site for the world’s fair.” TO CELEBRATE THE OPENING OF THE XEW BRIDGE. Under the callof new business Mr. Weller addressed the association on the question of a suitable celebration at the opening of the new bridge across the Eastern’ branch. The cele- bration, he thought, should be held about the middle of May, when the city approach to the bridge will be finished. It would not do to have tho celebration before that time because citizens of all sections would be invited and if they went to the bridge before Pennsylvania avenue was completed they would get mired and thereby given a false impression of the “What we want.” continued the speaker, ‘is a celebration to be proud of. On the other side of the bridge we want bonfires and fireworks and on this side we want brass bands.” Upon Mr. Weller’s motion the finance com- mittee was continued and osdered to make the uecessary preparations for the celebration. The resignation of Secretary Stocking was accepted and Mr. A. H. Sperry was elected to fill the vacaney. Messrs, Duncau Thompson and J. W. Babson were appointed members of the executive com- mittee, AGAINST THE PROPOSED B. AND 0, TUNNEL. Mr. Weller then called the attention of the meeting to the two bilis introduced by Senators Ingalls and Morrill, which provide a union depot and pray that the Baltimore and Ohio railroad shall tunnel 8d street. He spoke ces such a tunnel would cause to persons living anywhere near the lixe of it, and said that the worst feature of the Ingalls biil was that it contemplated the steal of one of East Washington's prettiest parks. which is known as reservation No. Continuing, Mr, Weller said he thought the association had killed that snake a year ago; but, like the poor dog that gets @hipped every day, he supposed hb = was getting used to it. Concern- 0 PROPOSED OCCUPANCY OF RESERVATION XVII. Mr. Weller said that the reservation was sold for parking purposes and that if used by a pri- vate corporation it would probably revert to its former owners. He thought the only practical method was for the railroads to uuite outside of the city limits and come in «long the Eastern branch and use K street southeast. which is already used for railroad purposes, He said that the objectionable features of the railroad problem were increased by the bills referred to: that there are already seventeen streets passed over at grade by the railroads, besides humerous other crossing At the conclusion of the debate on the rail- road problema committee, composed of Messrs, “The | Weller, Sperry, Thompson, White and Babson, was appointed to investigate and appear before the Senate committee to oppose the bills if nec- essary and report the result of their labors at au early date, UNFINISHED, THINGS, Dr. White called the attention of the associa- tion to the failure to provide for the completion of the approach tothe Pennsylvania avenue bridge on the county side, “That's @ re-proach,” remarked President Dawson. Dr. White also spoke of the unfinished con- ‘was before some improvements were made on it. Mr. Weller corroborated what Dr. White had of the necessity of having enue lighted as far as the ridge. He said that an appropriation for the purpose of making the Naylor road a good passable thoroughfare was spent by the former rd of Commissioners, *“They didn't remove Maj. Rayniond too soon,” he remarked. “That appropriation was spent for the purchase of a road engine and repairs in the northwest. SPEAKING OF THE COMMISSIONERS he said that the present board will do their utmost to help East Washington, “Whena citizen goes to the District buildings now,” he continued, “he is greeted with smiling faces and treated as a citizen should be treated,” Messrs, White, Weller and Hubbell were ap- Pointed a committee to wait on the Commis- sioners and call their attention to the needs discussed by the association, The question of a street railroad to cross the new bridge was discussed, but no action was taken. ‘The meeting then adjourned. ———_-—_ NATIONAL W. C. T. U. MATTERS. Mrs. La Fetra Expresses Herself on the Kansas Situation. Mrs. 8. D. La Fetra, president of the old line W.C.J.U. for the District of Columbia, was seen by a Stan reporter at the Fredonia hotel this morning and asked what she had to say of the report that the executive board of the Kansas union bad issued an address asking the local unions of that state to support republi- can candidates, “No doubt the report is true,” she replied, “as the policy of Miss Willard and her ad- herents has always been to support the party that indorses prohibition,whenever and where- ever it might be. They supported the repub- licans in the Dakota contest and did, perhaps, the best work of the campaign in the White Star state, as Congressman Pickler will tell you. Kansas the republican party indorses prohibition and promises to maintain the law, while the opposition demand the repeal of that measure. We are therefore consistent, and it would seem only doing our duty, in giving support, so far as we have wer, to those who pledge their honor for the home and fireside.” “If the conditions were reversed and the re- co declared for license, while the other ellows were for prohibition, would the union support the other fellows?” “Certainly. 1 v.C.T.U, believes in pro- hibition and it supports the friends of prohibi- tion, but it gives no aid or comfort to the enemy, whatever uniform he may wear.” “Then you do not think this address indi- cates that the Kansas union is going over to Mrs. Foster's army of crusaders?” “Not at all. Mrs. Fanny H. Rastall, presi- dent of the Kansas union, is one of the strong- est supporters Miss Willard has and was one of the first to answer the objections raised against the Nations! union. Mrs. Foster’s union could not consistently support the republican party, though that is really its purpose, but the ua- tional upion has no such obstacle in its way and supports candidates on a prohibition plat- form regardiess of their political brand, being in that sense a strictly non-partisan organiza- tion.” —— RIVAL LABOR UNIONS.

In the Criminal Court yesterday in the case of Henry Green and four other men charged with conspiracy a pro forma verdict of guilty was taken that the case might be certified to the It appeared in testimony that there were two unions of the hod carriers, each claiming to be union No. 1, ‘the above subject.

The Vote in the Washington City Pres- bytery Stands—Yeas, 29; Nays, 14. The closing speech in the revision debate in the Washington City presbytery yesterday was made by Rev. Dr. Hamlin, whose clear and forcible argument in favor of revision was fol- lowed with close attention by the large audience, When he had concluded preparations were made to take the vote on the first ques- tion of thie overture: “Do you desire a revision of the confession of faith?” Tne majority re- Port of the committee recommended that this question be answered in the affirmative and the vote was reslly on the adoption of that portion of the report. Substitutes had been offered by Judge Drake and Rev. Mr. Ramedell, which was taken up by the presb; tery and rejected. Thon the roll was called and each member was allowed three minutes to state his reasons why he favored or was op- posed to revision. A large number availed themselves of the opportunity to summarize the reasons for their votes in brief spoeches, EXCUSED FROM VOTING. Rev. Dr. Fullerton stated that he was in favor of revision and yet he was not in favor of re- vision, He thought that there were changos which could be made with advantage, get he was distrustful tosome extent of the influ- ences behind this movement for revision. He had therefore concluded not to yoteat all. By vote of the presbytery he was excused from voting. Nestly all the speakers, both of ministers aud elders, expressed their confidence that the general assembly would adopt a wise and con- servative course inthis matter. They were content to leave the subject in their hands, The importance was pointed out 6f having the peentinng and belief of the church ina line with the professions made. It was argued that it was wrong to have in the confession state- ments which were neither held nor preached by the church at large. THE VOTE IX DETAIL was as follows: Yeas—Revs. B. F.

Owing to the lateness of the hour it was decided to post- pone the consideration of this question until next Monday, to which time the presbytery ad- journed. Upon motion of Rev, Dr. Fullerton the pres- bytery adopted the following: “In parting from | Dr. Childs we would record our respect for his eminent abilities, our high appreciation of hig | character and our affection for him as a brother. We pray that in bis new relations | God may bless Bim and make him a blessing as | in the old aud dear relations in which we have | shared his fellowship.” AMUSEM TS.

Mise May Waldron as the dashing and irresistible widow is charming. The piquant widow seems to have become a necessary adjunct to modern plays, and Miss Waldron possesses just the | needed personal magnetism and natural man- ner to make such a part ua success. After mon- tiouing Mr. George Woodward, who made a good impression as the hypocritical parson, praise of the company must rest a moment. The others in the cast are merely average in the different parts. The audience was not coldly critical, and the work of the players was audibly appreciated. Again tonight, Tus Nationat--"'Mn. Bagses or New York.” — A big house received “Mr. Barnes of New York” at the National last night and manifested ite pleasure and approval by generous applause, The realism of the stage detracts somewhat from the subtle interest of the story as one reads it in the book with his imagination to fill in what discrepancies may occur, but the dramatization is nevertheless strong, and for those who love the imtense, who revel in the exciting suspense of delayed culmination, this play possesses more than ordinarily strong points, The east is good, Miss Emily Rigl as Marina easily leading in her graceful poses and passionate interpretation, Miss Field's Enid Was quite English, you know, and Miss Blancke's Maud was an audacious kid. Mr. Robert Hil- liard’s Mr. Barnes was natural and easy. Mr, Block's Lmella was considerable above the aver- age and Mr. Lewis's Toimasso was strong.

Miss Bindley as Dot was gracetul and pretty aud displayed much natu- ral ability, Great attention has been paid to the stage settings and the scenic effects last night, notably the explosion in the fourth act, were startling in their originality. Mention should be made of Mr. James Horne, who as- snmed the dual role of Ned Curley and Dead- wood Jack in @ competent manner. The com- pany isa good one. Again tonight.

Morgan and Alexander Graham Bell, VIRWS OF THE SUPREME COURT JUSTICES, Chief Justice Bingham of the Supreme Court of the Distript has written a letter to Hon. Mr. De Leno of the subcommittee of the House Dis- trict committee having the bill in charge, ex- Pressing the views of the court thereon, The cbief justice says: “The jussices of this court have considered thé proposition and are unanimously of the opinion that provision for such a reformatory in this District is impera' iy demanded. An- nually hundreds of young giris come before the courts in this city charged with offenses more or less serions, usually those who are without any proper or efficient guardianship, whose reformation under proper auspices might be hoped for. If punished they must be im- prisoned to mingle with felons of every grade, with a certainty that their moral status will only be degraded thereby. If cleared from the popular charge preferred they are turned loose to pursue their downward course to utter ruin. atis needed is that the law shall provide that all such girls shall be pluced in an institution where they can be controlled and properly disciplined; be taught good morals and at least the elements of education; learn to work and to acquire industrious habits. Such institutions elsewhere have proved successful, as well for girls as boys. We therefore most | heartily approve of the provisions of the bill before mentioned and most earnestly request its Passage by the present Congress.” Judge Thos, F, Miller of the Police Court, Mr. Randolph Coyle, for twelve years assistant U.S. attorney; Mr, C. H. Armes, assistant U.S attorney; Mr. 8. ‘I. Thomas, assistant attorney of the District. and others have also written strong letters urging the passage of the bill. THE LETTER OF JUDGE MILLER says: “I cannot express too strongly my opin- ion as to the necessity for the establishment of a reform school for girls in the District of Co- lumbia, It is almost a daily occurrence to have girls of tender years brought before me charged with various offences. ‘Lhe report of the superintendent of police for the last year shows that 742 girls under twenty-one years of age were arrested in the District of Columbia during that period, Disorderly conduct, petty larceny, profanity, vagrancy, assault and bat- tery, simple assault, intoxication and suspicion were among the charges on which they were arrested. Of this number a considerable pro- portion onght to be sent to a reformatory in- stitution. ‘There being no place the Dis- trict of Columbia to which these girls can be sent other than the United States jaul and the District workhouse, and the longest sentences to the work house possible under the law being ninety days, it is unnecessary to say that I am | often at a loss as to what disposition to make of | some of the offenders. They are often without | home or friends, living in an atmosphere of vice and demoralization, and to send them to jail or the work house ‘is simply to confine them for a short period, to return, when re- leased, to their oid associations, These reform- ator stitutions having proved effective with boys it is difficult to conceive why these bene- fits should not be extended to girls, Hoping roy this most important measure may pass,” Ce a A WORLD’S FAIR INDOORS.

The U. 8. Supreme Court Affirms the Decision of the District Court. In the United States Supreme Court yester- day Justice Blatchford rendered decision in the case of Alexander R. Shepherd against George 8. Pepper, involving the status of the property known as the Shepherd mansion, at the northeast corner of Connecticut avenue and K street. The decision affirms the judg- ment of the Supreme Court of the District im Pepper's favor. which have accrued shall be applied to pay Pepper's claim and ho is also given the benefit of the judgment of the court with regard to a dispute over interest. Justice Miller dissented from the opinion of the court. The suit originated out of three deeds of trust given by Shepherd. Two of these deeds were to Pepper, and embraced the greater part of the ger garg residence, while the third was in favor of Mra. Maria Gray, and embraced the rear lot facing on Connecticut avenue. The Picture gallery, servants’ quarters and ‘coal vault attached to the residence are upon this rear lot. The litigation arose over the question of satisfying these separate trusts. Mrs. Gray desired that the rear lot should be sold sep- arately for her benefit and any additional pro- ceeds turned over to Pepper, The court says that it is proved that it was the intention when the deeds were made tp have this rear lot included within the mortgaged property and that Pepper, as a condition of his selling this rear lot, is not required to Ping the whole debt due Mrs, Gray. A sale of the property as an entirety, it says, is for the interest of all parties. The emasculated front house, with the rear lot cut off. would bring very little, while the emasculated rear portion, with nothing but a picture gallery and coal vaults, would hardly attract many bidders, sora lis The Vice President’s Journey.
