THE POLICE COURT RECORD. A Colored Literary Society of Baltimore | Prisoners Who Appeared Before Judge Miller ‘Think the Joke is On Washington. The colored people of Baltimore are having some fun over what they consider the discom- fiture of some of the colored people of Wash- ington who went to Baltimore Tuesday night to attend the meeting of the Monumental Lit- erary Society of that city. Says the Beltimore A-nerican today: The col- ored literary lights of Washington had nevi heard much of Baltimore's creditable colored jliterary organization. ‘The Afro-American litterati of the national eapital supposed Balti- more’s colored citizens were groping in intel- lectual gloom. Therefore, upon invitation to read before the Literary last Tueeday evening, Col. Milton M. Holland, a chief clerk in the Treasury Department and a lawyer, determined to make a nussionery trip unto ‘the colored heathen of the monumental city and brought some fifty Washingtonians, including doctors, lawyers, professors of culleges, &c. They came, as they said, to have Baltimore's culored peo- ple sif for an evening in the “refleaed'” light of ‘ashington intellect. ‘The essayist told the colored people here that they must be more i dustrioux, more economical, more mani: in fact, he wanted them to imitate the good and great virtues of the colored populace of the na- tional capital. The essayist lectured and criti cimed the colored people of this city in great shape, and as his good points were applanded by Baltimoreans and Washingtonians alike he looked supremely radiant in his spiked-teil coat, low-cut yest and boutonniere. He had come tojimpress his audience with his great- news. He had vowed to come, to see, to con- quer. But, sad to relate. he had miscalculated his he conld chew.

First came Kev. Mr. Beck, who, in a pithy and pointed speech, at- tacked the address. “Then came Lawyer Ch: W. Johnson, who, in eloquent and forcible language, showed tip many follncics of fact and gic. ‘Then came Lawyer E. J. Waring, who, in a quiet but effective way, laid bare some weak spots. Then Councilman Harry 8. Cum- mings got in his work to. good purpose. Fol- lowing, Lawyer W. 'T. McGinnis eriticised the paper as witha dissecting knife. The ornate nd polished Daniel Webster Williams tired some thunderbolts, and in reserve were Dr. | Fowler, Dr. H. J. Brown, J. B. McGinnisa, W. | A. Hawkins and many more who hed no op- portunity to speak. “But note the result. After the home debaters had heated things | up to euch an extent, the Washington boys came to the conclusion thata trap had be set for them, and not only did Col.

Fairman, who represented in the proceedings in court’ those who insist ou having a fence, suid yesterday that he was simply waiting developments.

Every time anything happens the ery is “Howardiown,’ but the fact is that the people here are as orderly as in other sections and the wrongs of afew are. heuped ‘on the heads of many. It cannot be expected that our property will improvg so long as the street is closed and people ‘have to go a mile out of their way to get to their work in the city. Give us an open thoroughiare and few improvements and we will then ehow that our people will make good neighbors and that ino objection can be raised ayaitat them.” ‘THE STATUS OF THE CASE. As the ease now stands the matter is likely to get into the general term of the court some time next fali. When the Equity Court decision was given against the people of Howardtown they ere required to build the fence within tive days. Counsel for the defeated side noted ay appeal, but there seems to be a question as to whether the appeal will lie or not and also whether the feuce is to remain down until the matter is finally disposed of by the General Term. These questions will not be settled until the matter is again brought to the atten- tion of the court. ee | The “Mafia”.
