George Turne:, a young man who was re- cording secretary of “Washington Assembly, No. 2,” when the club room on 1334 street was raided in September, was tried before Judge Miller Saturday on a charge of violating the gambling law. He was defended by Lawyer Shillington. “Mutual improvement of its members was the object of the club,” said one of the wit- nesses. “And to play poker,” added the judge. It was admitted that poker was played for money, but Mr. Shillington contended that there was no difference between this and other clubs. “There is no place like home,” said counsel, “no matter how humble.” JUDGE MILLER'S REMARKS. Judge Miller referred to the proof that Henry Young, the saloonkeeper in the club building, had reaped the benefits, and then he spoke of the articles of incorporation obtained by the club, and said that it had never been decided, as some supposed, that an article of in= corporation was a shield for a er game. Tn such cause an the one before the court the Judge said that everybody whose name appeared oa the articles of incorporation was liable and imposed a fine of $50. Mr. Shillington noted an appeal. ‘Transfers of Keal Estate. Deeds in fee have been filed as follows: ‘Thos. Killigan to M. J. Colbert, pt. sub 38, nq. 214; $2,730. M. J.

Perfect Success. been referred to more or less from time to time, in reports and papers, for several years past, but it does not seem to have received the attention which its gravity demanded. Vague hopes and expectations that something would turn up gradually fixed themselves upon the Howell torpedo as the probable solution of the problem, although it was still in an experi- mental state. Finally, on January 5, 1889, 0 contract was made with the Hotchkiss Ordnance Company, the manufacturers of this weapon, for thirty torpedoes, of which ten were to be delivered by June 1, 1890, and all by September 1 of the same year. ‘This contract has not yet been filled, owing to the loss of two torpedoes st preliminary trials and the failure of the company thus far to produce a weapon that fulfills the requirements of the contract. An extension of the contract time has been granted, and the manufacturers hold out ex- pectations that they will be ready for another trial and for making deliveries by the 1st of January, 1891. Notwithstanding these expectations the ne- censity of possessing a practical torpedo was 80 tand the question whether the Hotchkiss dnance Company would be able to juce one answering the requirements of the cou- tract so doubtful, that the department would have fallen short of its dut; it not made an effort to meet, in some other way, the necessi- ties of the situation. Negotiations have, there- fore, been undertaken with the Whitehead Torpedo Company with a view to domesticat- ing the manufacture of their torpedo, the most successful yet produced in the world. Favor- able terms have been made and an order will shortly be placed with an American tirm for a number of Whitehead torpedoes. If the Hotch- kiss Company shall finally xucceed in producing a torpedo to answer the necessary conditions, the two designs will be subjected to competitive teats, with a view to uscertaining the expedi- ency of definitely adopting one or both of them for service use. In the meantime the bureau is continuing its investigations with other designs. Of torpedoes other than auto-mobile, one of the Patrick design, a torpedo electricaily di- rected from the shore, hus undergone a suc- cessful test. ‘Two others remain to be supplied to complete the three ordered February 26, 1889. It is proposed to use these torpedoes for Purpotes of instruction in connection with the naval war college. SAYS 1T 18 ALL A “FAKE.” An Assertion That There Has Been No Danger of an Indian Uprising.

In the Criminal Court last Friday, in the trial of William F. Dewdney alias Nicholson, charged with selling liquor on Sunday, the chief justice in giving the case to the jury said the law required that all drink- ing places be closed on Sunday. The fact that a bar room was separated from an eating house in the vame room by # curtain would not warrant a verdict of guilty. ‘the law contemplated the closing the bar as effect- ually as if ran in a disconnected building. But if liquors were carried from the bar end of the room to the other and sold on Sunday the offender would be as liable to punishment as if his door was open to all und he sold to any who applied. If aman obtained beer and was to pss for it in kind it was no excuse, but should, under the terms of the statute, be regarded as asale. ‘The jury found a verdict of guilty. Grifin 8.
