The board of directors of the Board of Trade met last nightat the board rooras in the Glover building. Vice President Wheatley called the | board to order and Mr. T. W. Noyes of the railroad committee, in the absence of Mr. B. H. Warner, chairman, read the following report: “The railroad committee recommends that it be authorized to bring about, if possible, a con- ference between a representative of the Penn- ylvania railroad authorized to speak for and | to bind the road on the subjects discussed and the Commissioners of the District and the rail- | road committee for the purpose of considering the propositions respecting the railroad occu- | pation of South Washington made by House | Pill 8248 (intreduced by Mr. Atkinson), and by the report of the railroad committee as adopted by the Board of Trade, in order to ascertain definitely what concessions, if any, the road is willing to make to the public in return for the concessions which it asks,” In response to an inquiry concerning the arton railroad bill Mr. Noyes stated that the ailroad committee had no geport to make con- ning it, In its main feacures it embodied the recommendations of the report which had been adopted by the fall bourd of trade, and a ! formal indorsement of it by the railroad com- mittee or the board of directors would, so far as these features wore concerned, be super- fiuous, There were certain amendments to details of the bill in respect to tempora: | tracks, side tracks, ete., not inconsistent wit | the recommendations of the Doard of Trade,and it was advisable that the aoe committees of the Board of Trade should not be deprived of the power to assent to these change: Mr. Wimsatt, representing the transportation committee, discussed the additions to the Bur- ton bill in respect to sidings, etc., which were thought advisable. The question was raised whether under the by-laws these matters conid be properly con- sidered by the board of directors and the pre- siding officer decided that clearly the board was debarred by the by-laws front such action on public questions, The recommendation of the railroad committee in respect to a confer- ence with the railroad was, after explanation by Mr. C. B. Church, adopted and the board adjourned. After the adjournment of the board a conference was had between the rep- resentatives present of the transportation and railroad committees and an agreement was quickly reached in respect to the proposed amendments concerning side tracks to be sug- gested to the Burton bill. =uieste Amusements.

Stone Implements From Former Villages Red Men in This District. At the meeting of the Anthropological So- ciety last night Mr. 8. V. Proudfit read a valu- able paper on “A collection of stone imple- ments from the District of Columbia.” This collection, numbering over 2,000 pieces, was the result of personal work in the field and was fairly typical, said the speaker, of the HANDICRAFT OF THE POTOMAC INDIANS, The paper was in the form of a letter to the Smithsonian, accompanying the collection which Mr, Proudfit recently presented to that institution, The implements were all made of hard materials and showed a high degree of skill and patient care in their manufacture, comparing very favorably with those found in otker parts of the country. A good many of them were found on the eastern shore of the Anacostia, where there are several village sites. The farmers of this vicinity, said Mr. Proudfit, are extremely courteous to the archwologist, and, as a rule, aid him considerably in his re- searches, HUNDREDS OF RELICS HEREABOUTS, The amount of material that may be gath- ered around Washington is very large. Every time the fields are ploughed scores and hun- dreds of chips and relics are turned up. As a rule the pieces of pottery have, by the con- stant cultivation of the soil, been broken into fragments so small that they are with extreme difficulty identified. The sites of the villages are often marked by the presence of stones which, although they do not show actual signs of having been worked, furnish evidence that they have been trodden — and kicked around by yecne years ago. They look jaded and worn, and have an appearance of having come in contact with humanity, INDIAN “*POT-BOILERS, In the discussion which followed the paper Prof. Mason referred to these stones and re- marked that he thought they were probably the celebrated ‘‘pot-boilers” of the {ndians, stones heated in the flames and then dropped into the pot containing food for the purpuse of cooking. Prof. Burton of Cambridge said that he | thought if trenches were to be opened in the Anacostia region remains of Indian burial grounds would be found, and Mr. Holmes re- | plied that skeletons have been found in that vicinity. ferns Ween . Treated Both Alike. George Seaman, who has figured in the Police Court several times recently, was in the Police Court again yesterday. This time he accused a citizen of the county. Mr. W. 8. Branson, with threatening him, and the latter made a counter ; charge against him. Judge Miller settled the matter by requiring both of them to give $200 bond or go to j aes Mysterious Pistol Shots. Hense Herbert, a negro whose face is famil- iar to the police, stole a bottle of whisky Mon- day night and was arrested by Policemen Han- ley and Redgrave. He was disorderly when taken in custody and the officers escorted him to the patrol box at 25th and M streets, While waiting for the patrol wagon two pistol shots were fired from a distance und one of the bul- lets struck the patrol box. The officers think that the shots were fired by friends of the prisoner who wanted to secure his release. yesterday in the Police Court the prisoner plead guilty to the charge of larceny and was jined $5. A similar fine was imposed m the case of disorderly conduct. He Asked for a Dime and Got—“Thirty Days.” The names of John Wilson and C, W. Smiley appeared on a paper filed in the Police Court today, the former being charged with vagrancy and the latter appearing as « witness against him, Wilson asked Smiley for adime, byt in- stead of getting the dime he got arrested. “They travel under the guise of Christian peo- ple,” said the prisoner, “but they are more like Hottentots.” That was after the court had required him to give bonds or go down for thirty days.
