VINDICATING RAUM. Gen, Bussey Considers the Commis- sioner’s Explanations Satisfactory. In the Raum investigation yesterday after ‘Tas Sran’s report closed, the examination of Assistant Secretary Bussey was continued. Mr. Cooper asked if the witness had investi- gated the charges connecting the commis- sioner and Mr. Lemon. ‘The witness replied: “Do you suppose I am going to take np everything I see in the news- Papers and act upon it. 1 don’t deal in news- Paper slander.” Continuing. he said Commissioner Raum had told him the circumstances fuily, and the ex- planation was perfectly satisfactory. He had nothing to do with the commissioner's private business so long as he conducted the public business properly and honestly. Mr. Cooper—When he got Mr. Lemon to go ou bis note was not that « public disgrace? The witness—1I have nothing to do with that. Mr. Cooper—You refase to answer? ‘The witness—Under the circumstances I see nothing wrong about it. He addled that he was satisfied that the com- missioner had not the slightest intention to favor Mr. Lemon or anybody else, This concluded the assistant secretary's ex- amination and then. at the commissioner's in- stance, the committee decided that it would hear oral testimony from the one hundred and thirty-eight Pension Office clerks who had been promoted. Half a dozen who had been in attendance were put upon the stand and tes- tified that they had no refrigerator stock, bought none and knew nothing about it. ' The committee made afrangements to visit the Pension Office today and take the testimony of the remainder. THE ATKINSON BILL. National Versus Corporation Rights. ‘To the Editor of Tur EVENING Sta: 1 suppose it is not difficult to identify the “organ of the opposition” referred to in the Jost of yesterday in its editorial on “Local Railroad Legislation” with Tre Star and to un- derstand that the reader is expected to “fix the responsibility for the loss of needed District legislatio#” on Tue Stan's editor. While it is undoubtedly trae that Tur Stan has been on the part of the press the main, if not the only, protector of the people's rights in this instance of a determined purpose of encroachment on the public domain, yet it would be a mistake to regard Tur Sran’s advocacy as representing only « local or city interest in this matter: I believe there is not a fair-minded American citizen in the whole land who wouid not grate- fully own hi indebtedness to Tue Svan for so and untiringly defending the citi- ghtsim this matter of » railway com- panv’s stealing the front yard of our national homestead. It isa misfortune that while the issae is really a national one its handling by the press is almost cutirely local, as if the people of the District were the only ones interested: but it is not the jess, true tat no advocacy of the people's rights in this matter could have been more patriotic and liberal than has been that of Tue Stax. It is but one in a thousand of American citizens residing out of Washington that knows or realizes with any intelligence what Yhis Atkinson bill realiy intends in perpetuat- ing this jou of the Pennsylvania railroad into the Capitol Park. If it were known there would not be 4 decent and disinterested news- paper inthe country that would not join in with Tue Stan in the very effort it has been making to defeat this pro; only whea those trustful citizens who have believed their tal city to bein safe keeping under the of Congress and who have supposed that gh sense of American pride would itself to insure to this city every advantage in the way of engineering cleanliness and beauty that the most advanced cities of the world can boast, it is only when these enter Washington for the first time in a Baltimore and Potomac railway train and look out m amazement to find themselves being hauled by an engine across the very lawns of the Capitol that they experience the shame and indignation which is put upon the whole people by this railway power that even Congress seems afraid to defy. What must that amazement and indignation be when they learn that there is a press in Wash- ington willing to lend its support to this ob- noxious intrusion and to condemn Tue Star for hindering “the needed (!) District legula- tion” which should help to confirm the railroad in indefinite possession of this the citizens’ property? Were the issue as widely known as the interest it stands for extends it would not be the voice of one only but of many millions that would thank Taz Stan for its patriotic course in this controversy and also Reprosent- ative Anderson and the other gentlemen who succeeded in preventing the passage of the bill in question on Monday last. FS. beorsen Saxon WHO WILL BE CHAMPIONS? The Game of Base Ball on Analostan Island Tomorrow. ‘The great game between the Columbia Ath- letic ball team and the New Jersey Athletic nine, the second of the series, will take place tomorrow afternoon on Analostan Island. The Visiting team will reach the city tonight at about 11 o'clock accompanied, it is expected, by a large number of New Yori and New Jer- sey athletes eager to see the Sand Spaniards repeat their former dose of whitewash. The Columbia boys, however, are determined to bring the series to a tie, and although they are handicapped by the illness of Keyworth. their best pitcher, they will make a gallant effort to annihilate the visitors, THE TEAMS will play and bat as follows: Colambia—Green, second base; Bolway, shortstop; Sprigman, third base; Dickinson, first base: Walsh, pitcher; Burke, right field; Heall or Dashiell, center field; Daly, catcher. New Jersey—Cary, shortstop; Chancey, third bave; W. Currie, cateher; Smith, first’ base; Spaulding, second base; McBurney, right field: Fistler, ieft field; J. M. Currie, center field: Menks, pitcher. Substitutes—W. J. Currie, Wistervelt and Mabie. ‘Tux Stax inadvertently placed the blame of losing last Saturday's game on Bolway’s single error. His misplay was uot as bad as some of the others nor as disastrous, and he deserves eredit for his plucky work throughout the season and sympathy for making this error, bis first in many games. He is one of the most ising players on the team. the game tomorrow will be called et 3:30 o'clock, Iwo steamers will be in service to carry the spectators across the river and a huge sand scow will be moored for # wharf at nd landing in order to accommodate i.

They Know How to Buy - Fish—But How Do They Cook "Em? “Ki yah, bo so mor-land.” That is what a reporter of Tar Stam thought he heard one Chinaman say to another this morning before a well-known fish stail in Cen- ter Market, The speaker was ovidently one of the numerous Chinese laundrymen about the city and he was in quest of material for his morning meal, His companion was evidently interested in the transaction, for he shook his head violently, and, with a “yuk be fee lah,” took his Celestial brother by the arm and led him along the stand to where some fine rock fish were hanging. The clerk approached at that moment and politely asked what they wished. “How machee?” was all he could get from them, The rock fish were weighed and came to 60 centa, “Fifly ‘nuf,” said the Chinamen in chorus, and the clerk being willing the money wae paid over and the Chinamen departed. “They are the most particular people in the world,” said the clerk, as he passed the money to the cashier, “and it's impossible to fool them. They never ask for anything, but pick up what they want and if it suits in price and quality they buy it. Tho gills of the tish must be cherry red or they won't have them. How they learned to judge a fish that way Lam un- ablo to tell, bat I suppose they do it in Ching.” at kind of fish do they buy?” hey have several favorites, but the rock fish and sea bass always have the call. There is one peculiarity I have noticed especially,” continued the clerk, “and that is they never aliow us to clean the fish they buy. We scale them, however, but dare not stick a knife in them. I have heard they cook them with their entrails in, but, of course, don’t know that that isso.” “Here's another rat,” said the clerk im an undertone. as another Celestial appronched, and the reporter drew to one side. This China- man bought « sea bass and was moving away when the clerk called him back. ery good; very good,” said the clerk, ex- bibiting some large eels. But the Chinaman turned up his nose and said “‘snakeo” in a high treble voice and moved on. “Do they buy much game,” asked the re- porter. > jot mach, That is, these {taundrymen don’t. The minister, however, is quite fond of game, but the feathers must be pure white. They are partial to «quabs.”” “Haye you any other peculiar customers?” “Oh, yes. This market is just filled every day with cranks, There is one lady who buy! fron: us, and she squeezes the fish to sce. as she says, if they are tender or not.” Just then 2 customer approached and, the clerk excusing himself, the reporter moved on, A NEW MORGUE WANTED. The Present Dead House « Disgrace to the District. The remains of the man who died in the Emergency Hospital Sunday after being found, in the park near Pennsylvania avenue and 9th street insensible from hemorrhage of the lungs, have not yet been identified at the morgue, although Mrs, Bel Lockwood yes- terday was quite positive that the body was that of Thaddeus 8. Seybold, and it is probable that the remains would have been buried under that name if Mr. Seybold himself had not turned up later in the day and insisted that he was still alive. Many persons have viewed the body there, Unless the identification is made today the re- mains will probably be interred in potter's field this afternoon or tomorrow. ‘This case fully demonstrates the necessity for amorgue more suitable for the purposes in- tended than the present insufficient structure, ‘The building, with its. mean surroundingy, ad- joins a horse stable in the yard of the sixth precinct police station, and “has none of the modern appliances of such an institution. It is not a fit place to keep a body for identifica- tion, and ladies who are looking for dead or missing friends hesitate to enter when they reach the door. ‘The place is kept xs clean as possible, but the situation of the buildmg and its total wufituess for the purpose intended is what those in charge of itcomplain of, Some- times there are three or four bodies in this little room at one time and there is only one table in it for disecting and other purposes. The remedy is 4 small appropriation which Congress has several time been asked to make. Some provisica, the officers think, should be made tor photographie appliances to be used, for in that event some of the unknown dead might be identified and claimed after burial. Sent to the Work House. David Loughlin, an old man, experienced some difticulty in the Police Court this morn- ing in his endeavor to get in the work house. Under Judge Miller's new rule several persons are brought into court together to be ar- raigned, and with Loughlin came two colored boys. They were James Lucas and Charles Coleman, “The boys wétefirst arraigned and each time the old man plead guilty. It was not until he had plead guilty the third time that his plea was accepted and he was given sixty days on the farm. ‘The colored boys gave them- selves up to the police and said they wanted to go to the Reform School, as they were tired of loafing. Judge Miller was not inclined to send them to the work house and there was no room for them mn the Reform School. When ques- tioned the boys said they had been to the work house before and Judge Miller sent them back for ninety days. ———___ A Baptist Minister Ordained. Acouncil of ministers and pastors of the Baptist churches was held at the Berean Baptist Church, 18th street between L and M streets, yesterday to consider the propriety of setting apart to the gospel ministry the pastor=lect, Rev. J. M. Waldron of Richmond. The council was opened by the election of Rev. Dr. Chas. A. Stukely of the First Baptist Church as moderator and Rev. William James Howard, pastor of Zion Baptist Church, as clerk. The ordaining sermon was prenehed by Rev. James E, Jones of Richmond and the charge to the church was delivered by Rey. L. J. Montague ot Marflaud. The ordaining prayer was offered by Rev. ©. C. Meador of tho Fifth Bap- tist Chureb, The hand of fellowship was . Dr. J. H. Cuthburt. Rev. tist Church welcomed try. ‘The presenta- tion of the bible was made by Rev. W. H. Scott of Shiloh, After appropriate music by the choir andasolo by Miss Wormley the council adjourned with a benediction by the caudidate, Rev. Mr. Waldron. ——— The Infantry at Winchester. When the Washington Light Infantry, or as many of them as went down to Winchester yos- terday to the fair of the Shenandoah Valley Association, got back to their armory ata late hour last night they were a tired lot of men, but they had had a jolly good time. The rain and slow trains did their best to spotl the day tor the infantry boys, but they were not suc- j cessiul by a good deal, When the special train reached Winchester, about noon, the soldiers were met at the station by a committee from ; the fair association and escorted to the grounds, where an address of welcome was made by Major H. L. D. Lewis, president of the associ- ation. This was responded to by Capt. John S. Miller, seuior officer of the infantry, who was in command in the abyence of Col. Moore. “At 8 o'clock a dress parade was given, which was in every way a complete success aud which was watched with the greatest interest by the crowds that were on hand. At 7:30 o'clock the train bearing the Washington military started for home and this city was reached after a tedi- ous but uneventual ride. —— oe Potomac District A. M. EK. Conference. The Potomac district conference began its second day's session at Mount Moriah African Methodist Church in Annapolis, Mc., yesterday with devotional service by Rev. J. W. Beckett of this city. Rev. J. H. Cailett of Baltimore made an address on e Necessity of Greater Care in Keeping and Preserving Church Keo- ords.” Fred Douglass made an address on “The Condition of the Colored People.” ———— Gone, but Not Forgotten. Prof. Francis R Fava, the well-known architect and civil engineer, is short on valises this week. Several days ago he started to go up the Baltimore and Ohio on a business tri ip of & hundred miles or go and took his grip along, containing wearing apparel, valuable Papers, &c. At the station he handed it to a cotored boy who met him at the cab and ceeded in to purchase his ticket. The waited below at the Ce and the serene in mind and body. t his valise it was not there, neither was the y who had carried it in forhim. Nobody had seen the boy; © had seen the valive, All were gone ,and he the boy had the grip. Waster He ME CREATED A SENSATION. Comzissioner Douglass Tells an Odor- ous Story of His Youthful Days. No one enjoys a funny story more than Com- mussioner Douglass, and often when the work at the District building is slack he likes to sit back in his chair and listen to some anecdote well told. He is a good story teller himself and has a fund of laughable anecdotes which he re- lates now and then, He told one today. It was like this: “Speaking of sensations,I recall the only seh- sation Lever made, It happened in my old home at Erie. I was a boy at the time and my home was just on the outskirts of the town where I raised s good many chickers. Some- thing was depleting my stock in hand, and every day brought fresh news of missing chick- ens. Who was the thief? I stayed awake nights thinking of it, and spent many an hour at the back window with an old musket waiting for the marauder, But he never came. At least not in the shape of aman. It must bo au animal of some sort,I couciuded,and accord- ingly changed my tactics, Instead of waiting at a window with a gun Imadea trap of a large barrel, smooth inside, and placed a fat hen in the bottom on some eggs. ‘Ihe hen was a set- ter, 1 want to say, and that’s the reason she stayed there. On top of the bar- rel I placed a box in such a way that an entrance was easy enough, but an exit impossible. The next morning I anxiously peored into the barrel. Whew, there were three skunks in there, and I saw before me pictures of lots of fun. I called my dogs—a Scotch terrier and a Newfoundland— and turned the skunks loose. The dogs killed the animals, but Erie didn’t have enough cologne to kill the remembrance left by those skunks. People had to close their doors. The next day I went to school, but the teacher said as soon asi had entered, ‘John, you needn't come to school today.’ I received a good thrashing for what I had done, although it was not deserved, so with the whipping and the skunks the sensation 1 created was a large one.” ——_—<.—_—. Letters of Administration. John F. Weeden has applied for letters of administration on the estate of Mary Elizabeth Weeden, who died in April last. He states that as she died in consequence of injuries re- ceived by a fall caused by the negligence of the B. and P. RR. Co., an action against the company has occurred. ——__—_ Low Rates to Dern Pank aND OaKLAND.— During the present season the Baltimore and Obio Railroad Company will sell excursion tickets from Washington to Deer Park, tain Lake Park and Oakland for the Friday night and all Saturday trains each week at rate of $5 for the round trip. The tickets will be valid for return passage until Monday follow- ing day of sale. Tickets to Berkeley Springs and return will be sold under similar condi- tions at #3.50 for the round trip. - A PIECE OF MILITARY STRATEGY. Canada’s New Transatlantic Mail Line Regarded as a Subterfuge. Three tenders have already been made to the Canadian government, offering to build the steamers for the new transatlantic mail line which is to ply between Canso, N. 8., and the British Isles, The bidders are said to be Pearce & Co., Napiers of Glasgow and Harlan & Wolff of Belfast, Ireland. Nothing can be done un- til the Dominion government has agreed with the admiralty authorities in London as to the conditions under which the vessels are to be constructed. The British governmen: wants the vessels to be specially constructed for the conveyance of troops in case of war, which agrees with the views expressed in some of the English newspapers that the new line is noth- ing more or less than a piece of military strategy. The guaranteed speed of the new vessels must be over nineteen knots an hour, DYING FROM HAZING. A Sophomore’s Skull Fractured by an , Attacked Freshman. Notwithstanding the Lafayette College fac- ulty has stated its mtention of expelling any and all students who take part in hazing, it has leaked out that the nefarious work has been in progrese already. Tuesday evening several freshmen were dragged frém their rooms by sophomores and roughly handied. Two young freshmen who were threatened with a visit by the hazing sophomores warned the latter to keep away and armed themselves with base ball bats. Soon after they had retired they heard hazers approaching the door. When the sopho- mores broke down the door to gain an entrance they were met by the determined freshmen, bats in hand. First of the sophomores to enter the room was Juan Antonio Medina, a Spaniard, from Tegucigalpa, Honduras, who was struck a terrific blow on the forchead and fell un- conscious, Another sophomore was hit, but not so badly hurt. The hazers picked up their injured comrades and hastily retired. dina was delirious all day yosterday, and is now lving in a precarious condition, It is feared his skull is fractured. His classmates had him concealed all day, with medical aid in constant attendange. Great effort was made to kcep the matter quiet. The disturbance took place in South College. Medi EZETA FOR PRESIDENT. A Temporary Exccutive to be Elected in Salvador. ASan Salvador special to the New York Herald says that the special session of the Salvadorian congress was convened yesterday afternoon to elect president to serve until next January. The crowds in the galleries of the house and those in the streets made an enthusiastic demonstration in favor of Gen. Ezeta for president. The president will prob- ably be clected today. “ee ——____ FIRST TOUCH OF WINTER. Six Inches of Snow in Montana and Northwestern Territory.

ODD EU IBC Lis As CO THE EVENING STAR is offered to the pub lic, in good faith and with confidence, as THB BEST LOCAL ADVERTISING MEDIUM IN THE UNITED STATES. In point of fact, it may be truthfully said that it is without ap equal in this respect any where in the world These averments are borne out by the figures given below, which are compiled from the ‘worn weekly statements printed im the paper on euch Monday in the year, and condensed from the sworn tabular statements showing the average daily circulation of the paper during the year 1889, published in Tux Stam on the 18th of January, 1890. Briefly stated, the points upon which the above claim is based are these: That— 1. The Star has three times the circa- tation of any other paper in Washing- tont 2 The Star’s circulation in Washing- ton ts double that of all the other datly Papers published in the city added te- gether! 3. Whe Star has a targer and fuller circulation in the city where printed, im proportion to reading and purchase ing population, than any other news paper in the world!!! 4. The Star has the largest regular and permanent home circulation ef any twe-cent afternoon paper in the United Suates 111! In support of these claims and to show the constantly increasing circulation of the papeg, attention is invited to the dgures following: DAILY CIRCULATION IN 18S5-86-87-88-80, 1SS3, ISS6.

Of this namber, 21,142 were delivered daily by regular carriers at the homes of permanent sub ecribers. The remaining 6,740 copies represont the sales over the office counter, at the news stands, cad by newsboys. But of this latter number a very large proportion is supplied reguiarly to per manent residents of the city living in lodgings, &c. (not householders), #o that ite whole cireule tion may be literally ssid to be in the family circle, While its aggregate circulation there fore gives Tne Stan a distinctive anid enviable | Position in modern journalism, the fullness of | its home circulation, the extent to which it is relied upon by members of the household, and particularty by the pure ce ing portion of the community, are the marked characteristics of the paper, to which no other daily journal now | published can furnish a parallel. ‘This is no idle boast on the part of the paper. It is a well establishod fact, demonstrated to the full satisfaction of the sagacious and enter- prising business men of Washington, who seck and know whore to find THE LARGEST RETURNS FROM THE MONEY PAID OUT FOR ADVERTISING. This is proven by the growth of Tre Sran’s advertising patronage. Nothing can more surely illustrate the esteem in which any article is beld by the public than « constantly increasing demand for it—day by day, woek by week, month by month, and year by year,—in the face of ad- verse claime and pretentious competition. The figures following tell the story on this point: «RINTED NUMBER OF NEW ADVERTISEMLNTS iss7 3,615 3.847 1888. 4.5) 4,529 : be remembered, consisted exclusively of the in the way of tax eales, poil lists, eloction resirna, etc., such as occasionally swell the business of political organs, being included im ite patrom age. In conclusion, it is only necessary to say that, {m proportion to the extent and high charactet (of ite circulation, Tus Stan's advertising rates take rank with the very lowest in the country, and to add, finally, that every statement beri, made can be abundantly verified, THE CI CULATION OF THE PAPER Is SWORN TO ITS PRESS AND CIRCULATION ROOMS ARE OPEN TO THE PUBLIC, AND ITS BOOKS MAY BE INSPECTED BY ANY ONE HAVIN@ | @& DITEREST Di THELL EXAMDIATION, am the city proper the PHENOMENAL PROM:
