He acknowle the contract which was entered into last December. Later he became con- vinced that the #150 per month was not a legal perquisite, and after taking advice he covered the entire sum he had received—$750-—into the Treasury. Subsequently the contract was given to another party at €4.000 per year in- stead of $5,000 ax formerly, Henry Culbertson, the ‘tractor, was the next witness. He had, said, carried the mails for the previous iter, Mr. Dalton, and had not paid him any sum for the privi- lege. He was Dalton's brother-in-law. He had paid the $150 per month to Wheat’s son Walter, Mr. Edward McPherson, the clerk of the House, was next called to the witness stand. He testified in effect that Mr, Wheat had come to his office with Mr. Richard J. Bright to see him some time in May last. heat showed him the certificate of payment of the £750 into the United States treasury. He also testified that when he learned of the existence of the conditions of the contract he refused to sign the receipt for the June payment to the con- tractor, as he did not regard itas legal. Wit- ness had spoken to several persons about the matter. ! NO? THAT BRADLEY. Mr. J. R, Bradley, 17 7th strect northcast, writes to Tux Stan that he is not the Mr. Brad- ley employed at the Government Printing Office mentioned in Mr. Enloo’s resolution. “‘AsTchance to be the only person named Bradley now employed at the Government Printing Ofice,” he says, “Mr. Enloe has evi- dently wrongly located the alleged culprit or else he 1s mistaken as to the name.” — THEY WILL HAVE CHARGE.

WHEAT. “MONTE CARLO” POOL SELLERS. | Oye veraxps Superior Baxrxa Pownzn, To Escape Penalties Under the New Law They Move to the Virginia Side. There sooms to be no disposition on the part | Crkvetaxns Superior Baxrxa Pownes, of the book makers and pool sellers at “Monte Carlo” to test the new law which igs face) effect today, and consequently there be the usual gathering of gamblers and hang- ers-on about Florida avenue and 7th street, across the, city boundary line. Until « few months ago pool selling was carried on within and outside the city limits at several places, but Congrese enacted a law prohibiting the sale in the city of pools on races or anything. else. That law was evidently passed to confine betting on the races to the race tracks and during the trials of speed, but after the pas- sage of the law the poolrooms were moved just across the boundary line, and there were so many such establishments located in the same neighborhood that the settlement was CHRISTENED “MONTE CARLO.” The places were conducted in au orderly manner, but they attracted large crowds of sporting men and some disreputable charac- ters and led to the establishment in their vicinity of cheap whisky saloons. The law did not rid the jurisdietion of the pool room, as Congress evidently intended it should, and it was found necessary to enact another law, which prohibits the business in the District altogether, except at the race tracks, and then only during the races, The Monte Carlo book makers have therefore MOVED TO JACKSON CITY at the south end of the Long bridge. Jackson City comprises a small area of low land, on which are several shanties, occupied either as saloons for the sale of common whisky or by gamblers who conduct their seductive games in violation of law and without fear of molesta- tion by the Virginia authorities, The local trains on the Alexandria and Fred- ericksburg road stop at tho station so that the gamblers can reach there without much trouble, OUT OF THE FRYING PAN INTO THE FIRE. Sheriff Veich of Alexandria county recently announced that he was going to raid all the gambling establishmonts in the country and if he carries out his original intention a large force of deputies will be necessary to assist him. ‘Lhe men indicted for alleged violations of the gambling law above the Free bridge on the Virginia side are complaining that the author- ities make fish of one and flesh of another and they promise some sensational developments in the near future. Fire on the Yacht ‘‘Alert.” The explosion of a gasoline stove caused a damaging blaze on board the yacht “Alert” at the Great Falls Ice Company's wharf, foot of llth street, this morning.

The fire spread from one end of the yacht to the other Vefore the arrival of the fire department, and damaged the boat to the extent of more than 1,500. The yacht had just been refitted and repaired at a cost of more than $1,000, A Fan Tru Of Hood's Sarsaparilla will convince any reasonable person that it does possess great medicinal merit, We do not claim that every bottle will accomplish a miracle, but wedo know that nearly every bottle, taken according to directions, does produce positive benefit.
