He has made an agreement to lease from the Anheuser- Busch Brewing Association of St. Louis a build- ing which will be erected on the south side of official capacities in the county and was one of | its most popular citizens. When the civil war began Bonna field, who was an extreme south- ern man in politics, enlisted in @ cavalry regi- ment as a private soldier. He attended to his horse, fed, curried and kept him in as fine = se a ack oe ta.

RELIEVING THE OVERCROWDED DEPARTMENT BUILDING. The space thus vacated in the department building will be utilized in giving the needed Fooms to the various divisions of the depart- ment, which are now too much crowded, and this relief, although it will be only partial, will | be gladly welcomed. The negotiations which | have resulted as indicated above have been conducted by Sixth Auditor Coulter and by | Chief Clerk Cooley, with the co-operation of | Mr. Wanamaker, Under the agreement made | with the owners of the property the interior arrangement of the new building will be de- signed in accordance with the plans to be ap- proved by the department. ‘The xite is now oc. cupied by the large buiiding known as Abner's restaurant, This building will be torn down THE NEW BUILDING will occupy the entire space and nearly the whole of the garden in the rear, as it will be 61 feet front and 116 feet deep. The plans have been prepared by Mr. Paul Schulze, the archi- tect, and show a front of brick and stone. The construction will be what iskuown as “slow burning, 1 species of fireproof. | The | building will rise to the height of six stories, , and in addition there is to bea basement rising four feet above the street level, which will | make it practically @ seven-story building. | ‘There wil) be room enough to accommodate the 475 and more clerks in the sixth auditor's office. Building operations are to be begun at | once, as the new structure must be ready for | occupancy by the Istof February next. At that time Marini’s Hall will be vacated. For the new building the government agrees to pay an annual rental of $9,000, which is an addition | i eae tothe rental now paid for Marini’s ANOTHER IMPROVEMENT ON THE BLOCK. The erection of this building will add very much to the appearance of that sido of the block. Adjoining the site of the proposed building, and on the ground formerly occupied by the Cosmopolitan Hall building, at the southeast corner of Sth and E streets, Mr. C. | Heurich is erecting a large building, which will | be 51 by 80 feet. It will only be two stories in height, but the upper story will be a lofty one and will constitute a hall for the use of the Sengerbund. the well-known German singing | society. The completion of these two build- | ings will improve in a handsome style nearly half of that side of the square. DISTRICT GOVERNMENT. VALIDITY OF ALLEY CONDEMNATIONS SINCE "715 An interesting question has arisen as to the | validity of alley condemnations since i871, the outcome of which isof great importance to the | District. The old law relating to aliey subdi- visions provides that upon the filing ofa plot, &c., the mayor shail make application to the marshal, &c. The point raised is that the Commissioners are not the legal successors of | the mayor. It is understood that there have | been several cases im which one of the justices | of the Supreme Court of the District has held that such alley assessments are void. In view of this case and some decisions of the General Term invoiving the same principle Assistant Attorney Thomas has advised the Commis- sioners that there is enough in the point to make it doubtful whether they can legally in- augurate proceedings for the condemnation of alleys, He suggests that in view of the un- certain condition of the law on the subject that ‘® bill be prepared on the plan of the old law if the Commissioners think well of its machi ery, to be presented to Congress for its enact- ment or thata section covermg the point be engrafted on the pending bill with reference | to the condemnation of land for sewers, &c Mf the bill is not too far along on the cale: dar. He says that such a bill should contain a ciause validating all condemnations heretofore made by the Commissioners under the ordi- nance of the old corporation referred to. ‘The Commissioners will instruct the attorney to | frame aiaw or bill in accordance with the present law, as action under that law seems to ive satisfaction. pieces: The Defects in the Cruiser Yorktown. | The board of survey, consisting of Capt. | Theodore F. Kane, equipment officer of the | >" Brookiyn navy yard, and Naval Constructors | William L. Mintoyue and W. L Capps, whose duty it was to inspect the cruiser Yorktown, have begun their examination. The starboard side has been pretty thoroughly scraped and the pits and iar defects have been indicated by chalk marks. The pits, it is thought, are due to gaivanic action. There is au irregular patch of them about 12 feet square on the star- board side and they are about three-sixteenth of an inch indepth. Rust and corrosion ar chiefly noticeable on the keel plates and are caused probably by the absence of an auti- corrosive covering. Crap Shooting and the Usual Fight. ‘The “crap shooters” have taken full possession of Mount Zion Hill across the Eastern Branch. Yesterday they assembled on the hill aud played and drank whisky. Blandy Williams, an East Washington negro, was in the crowd, and when almost the entire party had imbibed so much as to make them irresponsible, some oue raised a dispute about five cents that was in the pot, The ke passed and had not Llandy made such good time dowa the hill there might have been a case for the coroner today. As it was he was severely cut about the face. Police- man brauson beard of the affair aud he will arrest all the offenders. casera Election of Officers, Ata meeting of the Eclipse Electric Com- pany (capital 300,000). beld yesterday at No. 613 F street northwest, the foliowing were | unanimously elected officers for the ensuing year: Gen, Edward F. Beale, president; Jolin H. Walter, vice presitient; W. Mosby Williams, | secretary; Henry K. Simpson, treasurer; Frank Aldrich, general manager; John Ridout, attor- ney; Rev. B. FP. Bittinger, A. M. Lowrop, 8. Oppenbe mer, Gen. Albert Ordway, George L. Hull, Rev. Dr, John Chester, George P. Bohrer, E. H. Neumeyer, W. H. Acker and T. L. Jef- fords, directors, a ES No Law Against Whistling. A middle-aged woman attired in a black dress entered Inspector Swindells’ office at | police headquarters this morning and inquired if there was any law am the District against whistling. “Thet depends upon what kind of whistling is done,” explained the inspector. ‘Then the woman went on to tell of some colored people who next to her, and one of them, —— spends a ve of his! time tes! power. 48 morning eqeteey stira isting, and because she | juested him to stop several more ns joimed in the whistling. She was told that ined Yermert oe 4 comer ‘the law was con- “But,” said she, “I beg to differ and1 pro- Pose to test it,” She went away with an idea that police head- quarters was not a place to obtain infor- | some ob dem re He required no assistance in mounting, and | when in his seat is said to have been as firmly fixed as any member of the celebrated fourth Texas cavalry. Asan active soldier he bad no superior. After the surrender Bonnafield returned to Tucker county, He was seven years ago elected clerk of the county court, and was serving in that capacity when he wae taken ill. soe ROADHOUSE CONFESSES. He Says He Killed Engineer Vandee venter in Self-Defense. Fireman Roadhouse last night cleared ap the railroad tragedy at Van Wert, Ohio, by making & full confession. At the coroner's in- quest there was strong proof of the ill feeling between the fireman and Vandeventer, the murdered engineer, When Roadhouse beard of it he made confession, but asserted he killed Vandeventer in self-defense. The con- fession is vory sensstional, describing the desperate struggle on the engine. An effort was made to keep it from the public, but a lenked out and a large crowd gathered around the jail to which Koadhouse was removed, Lyuching was freely taiked of. +e. — AN ANGEL OF MERCY, Miss Fannie Gary’s Noble Act of Self« Sacrifice.
