CITY AND_ DISTRICT. @F Tur Evextxo Stan is read every day by more than two-thirds of the population of the city in which it is printed who are able to read. Can this record be matched Uy that of any other merespaper in Cie world? TRUSTEE GRIMKE SAYS NO. A Vigorous Report Against Removal of the Miner School. WHE COLOR LINE INVOLVED—THE .REVEREND TRUSTER'S REPORT ADOPTED BY THE BOARD— CHANGES IN TEACHERSHIPS— OTHER PUBLIC BCHOOL MATTERS CONSIDERED AT THE MEETING. A report was presented at the meeting of the pub! rd last evening by Rev. Mr. Grimke on the request presented to the board atthe last me jor the removal of the Miner School from its present location on 12th between P and Q streets northwest. This commu was referred to Rev. Mr. Grimke, the trustee for the seventh which the school ho is located. ty owners in the vicinity asked that the use of the Miner building for school pur- poses be discontinued as soon after the present school term as practicable. In his report Mr. Grimke recommends that no action be taken by the board in the matter. He said that the reasons assigned by the property owners for making the request should not only have no weight with the board but should be frowned down by it. ‘he first reason assigned,” con- tinned the report, “is BECAUSE IT IS A COLORED SCHOOL school b tion 10 is and because those who are likely to live in that neighborhood strongly object to being near such schools. assume that the colored ¢ consideration e that no te- mst them on ac- rtained by this schools are entitled to the s: as the white schools and the: quest which discriminates a; count of color ought to be en board. The se reason assigned iy that the | neighborhood is rapidly roving, that within the next : million of dollars will beexpended m improving the south side of Q street between i7th and 18th streets by a handsome block of stone front r 1 a which underlies this reason, namely, that school houses ought not to be located in neighborhoods where im- prov or likely to go on, but should be relegated to out of the way places or places where wealth is not likely to tow. is at ought not to be encouraged by this board.” THE SCHOOL WAS THERE FIRST. The report goes on to state that if this school house was regarded as a nuisance it would be obviously improper for the board to entertain a request looking toward its removal from one locality and its infliction upon another. espec- ially a3 in the present i where the nui- sance existed before those who petition to have it removed were on the ground. ‘The proper thing.” continued the report,-for people to do who object to livingin the vicinity of schools. is to stay away from them and not come into the neighborhood and expect the public good to Yield to their y interest.” Attention was port to the dis- courtesy offered b: quest to those members of the bo: ho were colored. For self-respecting ber of a body, ted for his consideration a paper that the negro is an object to be despised and shunned. The report was adopted without debate, CHANGES IN TEACH .

EMANCIPATION DAY, - Calvin Chase, the chairman of the day for the Emancipation day celebration, wrote tothe board requesting that the scholars in the schools of the sixth, seventh and eighth divisions be granted a holiday on the 16th in- stant, the day when the celebration will be held. The request was granted. INVESTIGATING JANITOR WIBERT. The committee appointed to investigate the charges against the janitor of the Curtis School building reported through Prof. Gregory that the investigation was now in progress, THE SCHOOL SHIP PROJECT. President Poss stated that the committee, of which he s: chairman, appointed at the last meeting to present to the Commissioners the lan of establishing a school ship in this city, called on the Commissioners, The latter had expressed themselves in favor of carrying out such «plan and he had no doubt that it would be recommended favorably to Congress, He said that he understood that the Navy De- partment was ready to do its part toward making such a school a success, Dr. Witmer said that he was informed that Aduural Porter would go before the committee of Congress and advocate the location of a — ship if the committee desired to hear m. President Ross presented a resolution in re- gard tothe death of Miss M. J. Scrivener, a teacher of the second division, and in a brief speech paid a tribute to her faithful services as @ teacher. The resolutions were adopted. - — An Officer Need Not Show a Warrant. Policemen Melton and Turnburke went to the house of Mrs. Harris, colored, in South Washington, with a warrant for the arrest of her son, “Toots” Harris, on acharge of as Ernest Smallwood. Toots’ older brother, Wi asked the officers for the warrant, and when they failed to show it the negro assaulted Ofticer Melton gave the officers trouble all the way to the police station. When the case was heard in the Police Court yesterday Lawyer Hewlett claimed that the failure to show the warrant made the arrest illegal. Judge Miller said that some one had been telling these people not to submit to arrest without a war- rant. The judge said that an officer is not obliged to read a warrant. The fact that he has a warrant is sufficient and his badge is euthority to make the arrest. “Suppose.” said Mr. Hewlett, “an officer would go to Senator Ingalls’ house with a war- rantfor the Senator's son and the Senator should tell him not to go, would the officer take him without reading the warrant? “Ishould think so,” responded the court, “and it he did his duty he would arrest the rson telling the other not to go. And if he iled he should be dismissed.” The court sentenced Wm. Harris to sixty days in jail. —>__ Eva Hamilton’s Prison Life. Speaker Heppenheimer of the New Jersey house has appointed Messrs. Voorhees, Marsh, Mullen, Trier and Williams a committee to n- vestigate the alleged mismanagement at the state prison. The committee will try and learn whether or not Eva Hamilton has been wined and dined while serving her two years in prison and if hosel manulactured there are properly stampe AN EFFORT FOR FREEDOM, Mr. Strong Applies for a Writ of Ha- | Tariff Notes—A beas Corpus. HE CHARGES THAT GEN. BUTLER HAS BEGUN A CRIMINAL PROSECUTION TO INFLUENCE HIs | of remonstrances aj CIVIL SUIT—THE PETITION REFLECTS ON THE CONDUCT OF THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY'S OFFICE. Samuel Strong and T. Humphrey Brooke, in- dicted ona charge of forgery, were brought from jail this morning and taken before Chief Justice Bingham in the Criminal Court, where their counsel, Col. W. A. Cook, filed petitions for a writ of habeas corpus. The petition in the case of Strong sects forth the various charges made in the four indictments and says that all in- olve substantially only a single important question, viz: the genuineness of a certain Written instrument, though “split up” into dif- ferent alleged crimes “for the manifest pur- pose of oppressing your petitioner and of pre- senting his alleged misconduct in as aggra- ting form and appearance as malignity and zal sciolisia could possibly accomplish.” The petitioner asserts his entire innocence of the crimes charged, and says “that said indict- ments have ouly been found by the suppression of fact, concealment of the trath and a misuse the criminal branch of said court and a perversion of its true purposes to aid the com- Plainant, Benjamin F. Butler, in maintaining and conducting to a successful issue his equity suit against your petitioner and othe: and to hinder, delay and embarrass your pe tioner (and other defendants) in preparing and completing his defense to said unjust, dis- honest and improper action of the said Butler.” THE ALLEGED FORGERY. The alleged forged document is a paper purporting to bear the signature of Benjamin F. Butler, stipulating that in case the award existing at that date, April 3, 1885, in favor of Strong for $ 23.48 shall be set aside, Butler should receive only $10,000 instead of $46,549.49 for his services, _‘The question of the genuineness and integ- rity of this paper, the petition says, is one of | the chief questions in the pending equity suit, and the petitioner claims to have produced be- fore the examiner in chancery direct evidence of its genuineness, As tothe charge in one of the indictments that petitioner had attempted to take the letter | claimed to be forged from the possession of an examiner with intent to steal, the petitioner Says this statement is a perversion of fact that he was allowed to look at the paper. but before he had read it was compelled and obtained permission to retire from the room; that he openly placed the letter | in his pocket to complete its perusal while away from the room; that he was immediately pursued by the examiner and Mr. QO. D, Bar- rett with a demand to give up the letter, which was done, Mr. Strong alleges that Gen. Butler and his solicitor recently consummated an arrange- ment with the district attorney to procure the indictment to farther the secrecy of which the entry of witnesses sworn was in the name of | United States against Doe; that the district at- | torney denied witness any opportunity to be heard; that the indictments were found in an “unfair, unjust aud partial method,” the testi- mony being incomplete. RITICISING THE PROSECUTING OFFICER. “Your petitioner,” the paper goes on to say, “has been informed and believes, and there- fore states, that the said indictments were pro- cured partly by the presence, in accordance with the wishes of said Randolph Coyle, and | his erroneous exposition of the law, to the effect | x other things) that it was imi: ut the civil suit was pending in the Equity Court, that only one side should be heard, viz: the statements and narrative of complainant, Butler, his solicitor and wit- | d that it was not competent | grand to go beyond or extend their inquiry further, t said conduct of said Coyle if it occurred, and said exposition ot the law and statements of the duties and powers of the grand jury is made, were irregular, unfair and erroneous, snd such as would render said indictments im- proper and void.” THE CLAIMS SUMMED UP. In closing the petitioner sums up his claims to liberty as follows: First. That said indictments do not exis! nor are they on file to correct any public evils or wrong, but only as respect an alleged per- sonal grievance of Benjamin F. Butler. Second. That having selected the Equity Court for establishment of his asserted rights and the correction of assumed wrongs he should until the final disposition of his suit be con- fined to said court. Third, That after having instituted his case in the Equity Court and carried it on in it for over a year and exhansted his learning and tes- timony in that court he should not be allowed to invoke and use the Criminal Court to aid him, directly or indirectly, in the prosecution of his civil suit. Fourth. Phat it would be contrary to public policy anda wise and prudent administration to create such a precedent, which would allow every malignant, disappointed or baffled liti- gant in civil cases to resort to the Criminal Court, and thus disturb the consistency and force of the several departments of the law. Fifth. That the action of the said Butler and those co-operating with him is in fact gross misconduct, amounting to contempt of the Equity Court and an imposition on the Criminal Court. Mr. Cook asked that the chief justice take up the cuse after recess, Mr. Coyle said the government would op- pose the issuance of the writ. The court suggested that he could not well hear it tod Mr. Coyle said that the case might go over. Mr. Cook asked that bail be fixed. Mr. Coyle said that he could not see how bail could be taken. Mr. Cook said he represented in part one over eighty years of age, in feeble health and suffering. and that he had a right to give bail pending the hearing. The chief justice remarked that any bail given now would be under the indictments, Col. Cook said if they gave such bail it would place them beyond the application for the writ, The suggestion was made that the District had the court. Mr. Cook remarked that the District would forego this business in a case where the liberty CAPITOL GLEANINGS, Confirmation—Commit- tee Notes, Etc. The ways and means committee is in receipt ‘inst the proposition to tax Mexican lead ore. A delegation of glove manufacturers was before the committee yes- terday in reference to the proposition of the importers (who were also represented by their committee) to substitute a specific duty based upon measurement upon gloves for the com- pound duty proposed in the tariff bill. The domestic manufacturers were represented by Messrs, Clarke and Representative Sanford of New York city and Northrupp & Arsinger of Gloversville, N.Y. They objected to the pro- posed change. About twenty-five firms repre- senting wholesale druggists and manufacturers of brushes have signed a memorial to Congress (whieh was presented by H. B. James of New York yesterday) asking that the present duty of 39 per cent ad val. on imported brushes be retained or not increased as proposed, and that bristles be placed on the free list. CONFIRMED. In executive session yesterday afternoon the Senate confirmed the -nomination of John J. en receiver of public moneys at Pueblo, ol. IT DID NOT GET TWO-THIRDS. A motion was made in the House yesterday to take up the bill to increase the salary of the surgeon general of the Marine Hospital Service from $4,000 to $6,000 per year, but it failed to get the necessary two-thirds, NO VICE ADMIRAL. The bill to promote Rear Admiral Jonett to the rank of vico admiral, reviving that rank | for the purpose, was reported adversely yester- day from the Senate committee on naval affairs and indefinitely postponed. YOR PURE FooD. Representative Boatner (La.) yesterday intro- | duced a bill for the prevention of the adultera- tion and misbranding of food and drugs and for the prevention of poisonous or injurious aduiterations, ‘The bill makes unlawful the in- troduction, for purposes of sale, into one state from another or from a foreign country of any article of food adulterated, and provides pen- alties for any violations of ‘the law. ST. PAUL'S LITTLE JOKE, People from St. Paul, Minn., who have been around the Capitol for the last day or two have been having lots of fun at the expense of their brethren from Minneapolis, Col.

Incidents and Observations Along the Route of the Nicaragua Canal. Admiral Ammen writing from Rivas, the western exit of Lake Nicaragua, to the Balti- more Sun says: Rivas lies some five miles north and west of the mouth of the river Lajas, the point of entrance to the projected canal, To the northward and at that point is trap rock, which will require blasting and removal one-third of a mile from the shore. The surf of the lake forms a bulkhead of sand across the mouth of the so-called river, and thence the traveler may pass along without a hillock to pass over until he reaches “the divide,” some seven miles from the lake, and then he stands only 43 feet above the lake. Bearing in mind what has beea said of the region leading into the lake, by ascending the river I was almost willing to agree to the assertion of an old and able railroad constructor, who said to me that “nature had almost made the canal; all that it required was that men should do a little scratching.” It is of course an exaggerated expression, but much nearer the truth than those who have not examired the Engineering News of September 14, 1889, will be dispose: to believe. As tho readers of that paper know, light work requiring only a little excavation is necessary after passing “the divide.” The waters of the lake are held at alevel to within ; Jess than three miles of Brito, an indentation that can readily and at a not inconsiderabie cost be transformed into a harbor, and by means of a dam # magnificent intand basin more than five | Iniles in length reaching up to Los Cerdas, the | head of the bas In the future, instead of a | rough landing, Rivas will have a smooth one a mile nearer, within the canal; the Gola basin will have its port, and the highlands of Los | Cerdas will be covered with hotels or residences | and these waters and nooks be the favorite re- | sorts of the yachts of all nations, especially during our winter season, A few days ago I rode to San Jnan del Sur, over @ tine road for hor: but bad enough for carts now, and it would seem to me impassable in the rainy season. Yet they do pass at a cost of labor and money. A railroad trom this byamere difference of applied labor that will go on until the railroad is made.

San Francisco Special. Creed Haymond, who for years has been at- torney for the Southern Pacific Company, has resigned and the reasons for his giving up a salary of $25,000 are coming to the surface. The story which gains most credence is to the | effect that Haymond will succeed Gov. Stan- ford in the United States Senate. This is not at all unlikely. Stanford is ambitious to ates and if become President of the United his desire is not satisfied he will probably de- vote himself to his university at Palo Alta, If he runs for Senator he will meet with very de- | termined opposition and he does not care to run the chances of defeat, Haymond, on the other hand, has nothing in a political way to lose, and would serve rail- | road interests at Washington exactly as well He is a shrewd lawyer anda clever politician and has had experience in all of the tric the trade. While waiting for the nomin will probably serve the Southern Pacitic as of the counsel” at $15,000 or $20,000 a year, Stanford arrived from Washington Saturday and it is rumored that his visit has some con- | nection with the change.
