New You«, July 8.—Within the jast few days many saloon keepers and others in Jersey City | have been swindled by cashing what they be- the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, but which | roved to be bogus and entirely worthless. It is customary for many of the railroad employes on receiving their pay checks, in which form their salaries are paid, to get them cashed at | saloons and stores where they are in the habit | of trading iustsad of going to the bank upon | which they are drawn. It excites no surprise to have stich checks offered for exchange for cash and to have them accepted without much scrutiny. In this manner Police Comissioner Kelly, James Fitzgerald and Michael Foley, saloon keepers, have been fleeced during the past three days in amounts ranging from €35 to 260, the ratio of the monthly wages paid by the railroad company to its employes. ‘An attempt wus also made to puss one of the gus checks upon the clerk at Taylor's Hotel, but its true character being detected it was re- fused and thus the fact of the issue of the epurious oT was mac "aes of Tab checks b end pronounced bogus was forwarded itor of the railroad company, who declared it to be w well-executed counterfert and issued ‘an order that the police be notified.

DR. SCHUSERT’S DEATH. Knocked Down by a Boy Thrown From a Bicycle. THE AGED MAN'S HEAD STRUCK THE PAVEMENT ‘WITH SUCH FORCE As TO CAUEE COXCUSSION ‘THE BRAIN FROM WHICH RE DIRD—THE BOY AB- RESTED—THE CORONER'S INQUEST. Last evening about 7 o'clock Rev. Dr. Wm. Schubert was knocked down by « youthful bi- eycle rider and was so badly injured that he died five hours later. Dr. Sebubert lived with his wife and family at No. 725 8th street northwest. He had been in feeble health for some time and consequently he was not able to move about very quickly. His youngest daughter, Annie, was on the oppo- site side of the street and the old gentleman left his home to go across to where she was. Just after he reached the street ho saw two boys coming down the street on bicycles. One was James Gaut, an cleven-year-old boy, son of ‘Mr. Gaut of the Treasury Department. Dr. Schubert, being unable to get over the street and out of the way of the bicyclists, stopped in the street to let thom pass, and they would in all probability have got past all right had not the bicycle ridden by young Gaut struck a stone and caused him to take a “header.” UNFORTUNATE RESULT OF A HEADER. The boy fell with considerable force against Dr. Schubert, knocking the latter down upon the asphalt pavement. The reverend gentle- man fell flat upon his back and his head struck the pavement with such force as to render him unconscious. His wife witnessed the affair and vhe ran to her husband's rescue. Paskers- by lifted the injured man trom the pavement and carried bin into the house. where he was attended by Drs, Gilbert and Wolhuupter. ‘The doctors found that the patient had re- ceived severe injuries, and they were unable to restore him to consciousness. ‘The patient re- mained uncouscious untilaboat miduight, when he died. Soon after his death the police were notified of the uffair and Sergeant Montgomery and Policeman Boardman went to the house of Gaut, No. 08 H street northwest, and Mr. it aroused his boy and went with him and the ofticers to the first police station. On account of his youth the boy was not locked up, but was permitted to sleep in one of the bed rooms with his futher. He was not at all alarmed over the affair, but told the officers in a straightforward manuer of how the acci- dent happened, relating his version of the af- fair as above stated. ‘The charge entered on the books against him was suspicion. DR. SCHUBERT'S CAREER. Dr. Schubert was born in Berlin in 1828, and before coming to this country he was ordained in the Luthern church. After reaching thi country he spent considerable time in Penn- sylvania, where he was identified with the Moravian church. About 1872 he studied in the Fairfax, Va., seminary, and was ordained a deacon in the Episcopal church. Afterward he went to Yankton, Dak., as a missionary among the Indians, but was compelled to return on ac- Mr. Gi count of his health. He then spent some time in Churchill, Md., and Pennsville, N. J., but his health became so bad that he cam to live in 1879. Although he has never been the rector of any church in this city he has tilled the pulpits of the different Episcopal churches from time to time. WHAT THE AUTOPSY sHowED. This morning Deputy Coroner Schacffer was notified of the occurrence and he decided to hold the inquest ut 2 o'clock this afternoon at the first precinet police station. ‘The autopry made by Dr. Schaeffer showed that death resulted from concussion of the brain. Owing to some mistake in summoning the jury the taking of testimony was not begun un- til after the appointed hour. THE INQUEST. When the jury reached the station it was efter 2:30 o’elock, and au eleven-year-old boy named Jobn L. McLoughlin wus called ax a wit- news. He lives at No. 806 H street und is acompanion of the Gaut boy. Witness was riding a bicycle and was nearly half 4 square behind Gaut. Witness said Dr. Schubert ate about the middle of the street opped and witness said he saw his companions bicyele, a 38-inch Columbia, strike a brick ‘The rider was thrown over the handle bar and his head struck Dr. Schubert in the chest. jaut remained there and did not run away. He tried to grab Dr. Schubert's head to keep him from falling, but he was unable todo so. When asked whether the boy rang his bell or gave au alarm, wituess said he heard him call to Dr. Sehuber, “Look out.” When questioned by « juror witness said that the bicycle would have cleared Dr. Schubert if it had not struck « brick. y Finney was the next witness. He lives at No. 634 I street, and was riding just behind Gout when the accident happened. Gaut was riding very fust and so was Carl Mueller. Wit- ness thought that Gaut and Mueller were racing. ‘i Gaut did not run away, said witness, but he remained there to see low badly Dr. Schu- bert was hurt. Witness heard him call to Dr. Sehnbert. When the wheel struck the brick it tarned to the right and threw Gaut to the left. — Stole the Jewels of » Countess.

Cuicago, July 8.--A local paper says: The Burlington, Cedar Rapids and Northern will appeal to the U.S. courts from the decision rendered several days ugo by the Iowa supreme court, which sustains the legality of the Iowa joint rates. It will be remembered that the Towa legislature and railroad commissioners established a distance freight tariff and later joint rates on two or more roads by making the through rates equal to 80 per cent of the locals. The Burlingtom Cedar secured an injunction, holding that the state authorities having once established “reason- able” rates had no right to scale the tariffs 20 per cent lower. ‘The Iowa supreme court has now dissolved this injunction. Pending appeal to the U.S. courts the Iowa roads have not yet decided whether or not they will put into effect | the objectionable joint rates. —— Wants to Spend Her Own Money.

The system at present in force sends the cadet at the end of four years from the academ: with a partial diploma, and keeps him nomi- nally at sea for two years under new superior officers and ‘at the end of that time he returns fora few days to the academy, when he is again examined in a limited” number of studies and receives his commission as ensign in the navy. During these years the cadet is not under sufti- cient control or supervision to his stud: which should not be dis- continued at the end of four years. It is be- lieved that under the new plan, by lengthen- ing the present practice cruises and ex- tending them over six years the actual service at sen would “not be much, it any, less than under the present system, and it would be more widely distributed over the entire course and the large expense of send- ing abroad and bringing home the cadets within two years would be saved. The board indorses the plan as —appearin to be feasible and practicable from suc consideration as it has been possible to give it, and recommends it to the careful and immedi- ate consideration of the Secretary of the Ni The board believes that the rearrangement of the six years’ course will do much to correct the defect of improper grading of the standards of admission and graduation and ways that in order to make, the course in engincering more nearly ‘equivalent to that — pro- vided by the Dest technical institutions of the country there should be a con- siderable increase of time devoted to both ths theoretical and practical branches included, in that course. Some space is given in the ‘re- port to recommendations looking to the rovision of suitable wv quarters lor junior offic for new shops, nd in view of the increasing number of cadets incident to the new congressional a portionment, of repuiry and additions to the cadets’ quarters, but for lack of time the board wax not able to make specific recom- mendations. ‘he naval hospital was found to be dilapidated and of no use to the academy. 80 it iv recommended that it be sold to some enterprising hotel company. After speakin, in terms of commendation of the officers ani cadets the board trents.as follows the subject of “hazing.” which hasso often vexed the minds of its predecessors: AGAINST THE PRACTICE OF HAZING. “The board regrets to be obliged to make one criticism. The odious, brutalizing and un-American habit of hazing has not, as yet, entirely disappeared from the acad- cw}. "The forts that have been made for its extermination, it is grat- ng to say, have been largely successful, but there yet ling class feeling that is extremely detrimental. This ix, no doubt, difticul! for young men of the ages of those wt ‘the Naval Academy fully te com- prelend and always act upon the broad prinei- ples of justice and equity that generally pre- vail among educated ‘and broad-minded men, yet the very purpose of the liberal education the government bestows upon those who are the objects of its care here is to make them officers, who, loving jus- | tice, will always defend the right.’ The leseon they are to practice throughout life they ought to learn and practice here—to hate wrong and oppression. Looked at from — proper standpoint, —_nothing is more brutal, not to cowardly, than for the strong to suppress the weak, or for a su- petior in rank to take advantage of his position jo wrong an inferior. Though youn; men may in momentsof recklessness and mirth sguine ‘the truth from themselves, yet this is really the spirit that prompts those of a higher sult those of a lower grade to degrade and class. Cadets do not ab worve the very broad line of separates innocent pranks that th und amuseme may create tem- t rom the im- 8 of existence port that there is now at the academy only @ relic of the hazing that in times past was so. dis grucetul, and the officers in charge are taking what they believe to be wise and proper steps to eradicate, as far as may be. Certain false ideas of honor still linger among the young men and manifest themselves now principally in certain extravagant noticrs of fidelity to one class at the expense, some- timies it may be, of official duty and honor it welf. ‘Yhe board does not certainly deprecate a proper class pride and would say nothing that would lessen a true spirit of emulation, but it does sincerely hope that every effort will be made in’ the future, not only as it is sure will be the case by the officers in charge, but also by the cadets themselves, to break down unnecessary class antagoni and to cultivate a broader spirit of love and regard that shall embrace the whole academic corps. It is recommended that the machine shop should be enlarged and $20,000 is said to be the robable expense of adding necessary plant. There is also an estimute of $55,000 for sup- plying electric light. Attention is directed to the necessity for giving greater attention than is at present accorded to the study of inter- national law. ee DISTRICT GOVERNMENT. ‘THY WESTERN MARKETMASTER'S REPORT. ‘The annual report of J. Eldridge Burns, the marketmaster for the Western market, has been received by the Commissioners. During ‘the year he received in cash from the rent of stalls &c., $6,221.20. He says it will require €1,780 te properly provide for the efficiency of ‘the market next year. The market is in miserable repair, the roof being so high that it is impos- sible to get to it to proj erly clean it, and it requires at least 25,000 to put ‘it in repair. If this amount is appropriated and the necessary repairs made, he says, he has no doubt but that he can bring'the receipts up to $7,000 per year. BUILDING PERMITS were issued today as follows: Jno.

The Commission of Three Completed by the Court Today. MESERS. DAVIO AFD THOMPSON EECUSED AxD ‘MESSRS BURCHELL AND GBUYVERLE APPUINTED In the Court in General Term, Chief Justice Bingham and Judges Hagner and James, this ‘morning the chief justice announced that two of the gentlemen named yesterday as members ‘of the commission to appraise the land in Rock Creek Park, Messrs. Lewis J. Davis Ww. & Thompeon, had declined to serve for reasons the court deemed satisfactory. Two others, Messrs. G. J. Seufferle and Norval W. Burchell, had been appointed, and, with Mr. Norris, would constitute the board. ‘Mr. Perry asked if it was known whether Mousrs. Burchell and Seufferle would accept, and the court answered that they wonld know ina short time, and tomorrow the court would meet to give the board instructions. Mr. Lambert suggested that an opportunity be given to examine the appraisers as to thei interest in the matter. The court said they considered this a matter re Wilson, ti a Ir. m, Fepresenting property owners, said that this was « novel Case, 40 novel. tnt they scarcely knew how to —— but they have in contemplation the filing of a demurrer to the petition, but would not argue it, as it would raise the same questions included in their objections. When this overruled they would ask a writ of error amd that the court fix the supercedeas bond, ‘The court took a recess till 1 o'clock. WHAT MB, SEUFFERLE sal. Mr. G. J. Seufferle is a prominent grocer and a well-known business man of Washington. A Star reporte: found him at the office of Jack- son & Co., on Pennsylvania avenue, this morn- ing and asked what le had to say us to his ap- inj polntment. “What appointment?” said Mr. Seufforle, in a surprised tone. And so it came about that the first news he received that the Supreme Court of the District had taken favorable action upon his name came through the medium of the Star. “Well,” he continued, “you have taken me 80 by surprise that I hardly know what to say about it. And beside that I am not at all sure that it would be a proper thing to say anything about it until I have received a formal notification from the court that I have been appointed. One thing I can say in all honesty and I'am perfectly willing to say that, and it is that I did not want the place, did not seek it and do not want it now. If I can get out of serving you may be sure I will, for I do not know of a more thankless task than that of an appraiser. I might be willing to, take the p ras many conflicting interests at stake in the present case to make the place anything but an undewirable one. I was a member of the board of uppralsers for the Congressional Library site and also for condemning land for a street and if I can get out of it this time you may be sure I will. ‘MR. BURCHELL DOESN'T WANT IT. Mr. N. W. Burchell, who was also appointed one of the appraisers this morning, is one of the leading merchants in the city, having been in the grocery business on F street for more than thirty-five vears, He came to Washington in 1856 and started in business as a member of the firm of King & Burchell in the old King house onthe north side of F street, A few yeurs later he moved aeross the street to where the Ebbitt House now stands, and in 1865 the rtnership of King & Burchell wes dissolved. Since then Mr. Burchell has been in business by himself and has built up a business of flattering proportions. He has also been connected wit a number of local charities as well as busines: institutions. He has been for twenty years pasta trustee of the District Reform School and is now a di- rector in the National Metropolita: Bank and a trustee in the Riggs and Mutual Protection Insurance companies. Tux Stan man reached Mr. Burchell's place of business this afternoon a few minutes be- fore the bailiff who brought the order from the court commanding Mr. Burchell to appear jat court and assume the duties of an ap- raiscr. When the latter came in the niliff handed hin: the vealed order, simply ing that it came from the court and no anew: was needed by the messenger. He was told, however, that he might make hz) answer to the repor' ‘When he opened the envelope he seemed to be anything but pleased as he read the con- tents, He admitted frankly that he didn’t like ita little bit, but he said that he preferred not to way anything definitely about it until he could appear at court and find out what he had to do and what the state of the case might be. “Bnt. look here,” said he, and he read from the order of the court to the effect that he was to appear at court at 1 o’cluck and hear and re- ceive whatever orders there might be for him. “Why, its only a few minutes of 1 now, ‘and it's a good way from here to the court house on a rainy day like this.

He, with Mr. Norris, subsoquently had a conferences with the juticess in the consultation room, as did Mr. Burchell, who arrived some time after- ward. Messrs. Keufferle and Burchell each asked to be let off, but were finally prevailed ‘on to act, EXAMINED BY THE COURT. At 2:10 the court reconvened and the chief justice said that they had made such investiga- tion as to the qualifications of those named as they deemed it their duty to make.

The subject had been discussed in the Com- mittee of One Hundred and he acted in this in the interest of the whole. e Nothing which occurred at the meeting or that he had done would affect his judgment and, while he tted that he had been ap- pointed, he would do his duty conscientiously. The commission was instructed to report at 1 o'clock tomorrow. A form of oath was then suggested by Mr. Abert, which was discussed. No obj ‘was made by government to the form of oath.

Congress May Be Asked to Extend the Time for the Work. THE ASSESSMENT TO BE COMPLETED KEET JUER— ‘THE RULE ABOUT VALUES—WmaT THE asanee- ORS SAY OF IT—PROPERTY OWXERS WHO 4 PROVE It. Messrs. Dawson, Cook and Moore, the as sistant assessors, were busy today looking over plat books and arranging « plan of campaig.. Their work will have to be doue most expedi- tiously in order to have the assessment com- pleted for the triennial period beginning with the fiscal year 1893. The law says that the assessment must be made within the calendar year 1892 or in other words must be- gin on or after January} next. The assess Ment must then be completed by June 1, at which time the assessor and the assistant as: sessors will begin their sessions asa board of review and sit in that capacity until August 1. So the actual assessment will have to be made in the five months from January 1 to June 1. The board, however, proposes to begin work at onee by exploring the city and making notes. They will then after the ist of January merely have to review this work and formally agree upon it. Mr. Dawson, the president of tho board, said today that he thought it absolutely necessary to secure from Congress an extension of the time in which to do the work. There were, he said, in the city of Wasbing- ton alone, exclusive of the connty and George- town, about 1,200 squares, and all squares are subdivided, one which the board found a day or two ago including as many as 265 sep- arate pieces of property. It would be almost impossible, he said, for one man to view every picve of property in the time given and decide u however, the property had to be viewed b: three men and they would have to have time to deliberate and come toan agreement in each came. Already matters are assuming definite pro- portions in relation to the work of the assexs- ors. Duplicate tax books and plats of the city are bei: stadied and within a few days th board will commence to view property, begin- ning with square 1 and following on numeri- caliy. THE RULE ADOUT VALUES. The rule adopted by the board of assessors yesterday regarding the interpretation of the words “value” and “true value,” as found in the assessment law, has beon the subject of ta Dintrict. much among property owners of the Speaking of the board's rpretation of the law, Presi- dent Dawson today said that the ruling of the ax- sistant attorney if followed out would seriousiy if not fatally ‘injure the city of Washington. In condemnation proceedings, be wid where a man was to be deprived of his property it was all well and good to give him the benefits of all doubts as to price #0 as to compensate him ax much ax possible for the damage done, but the assesment of prop- erty for taxation alone was a most important thing and benefited not only the property owner himself, but the revenues of the District. Now if his property was exorbitantly taxed the result would be that a great many property owners would leave the city. “Iam in fa- vor,” he said, “of a just and equitable assess- ment, and I believe that the rule adopted by the board will be productive of that rosult. The welfare of the District depends upon its revenues, and it would Le folly, I think,to over tax the property owners and thereby kill the Roose that lays the golden egg.” WHAT PROPERTY OWNERE THINK. The ruling yesterday: by the assistant asseae- ors that the words “value” and ~true value” used in the existing law shall be consi. wed as meaning that amount of lawful money which such property would probably bring at forced sale under adverse circumstances seems to meet with pretty general approval among ownery of real estate and business men in the city, A Stau reporter in talking with « num- bez of property holders found 9 gen- eral feeling of satisfaction over the dealing and the belief was freely expressed that if any other interpretation had been made it would have had n injurious effect on Wash- Said one prominent property owner, “If property in Washington ould be assenned at the prices paid for it the growth cf the city would be Bion en- tirely. Washington is nota commercial eity and many people bave been induced to come hero on account of especial advantages. All this would, however, close in short order if a high assessment should be made.” Another gentleman quoted Baltimore as an instance of the terrible effect of a high assens- ment. “In Baltimore,” said this gentleman, “property was assessed at its top value wit the ‘result that no one put up any more fine buildings and real estate was becom. ing a drug on the market.” At the office of Fitch, Fox & Brown. both Mr. Fitch and Mr. Brown expressed their indorse- ment of the ruling. Both gentlemen were of opinion that a high assessment would be qeatly detrimental to the advancement of ‘ashington. Mr. John W. Thompson likewise thought the ruling was a wise one. The assesment, he thought, should bemade with a look toward the future and for the interests of the city. Progress should be encouraged, not retarded A high assessment would crush down enteprise, be thought. Mr. Chas, W. Darr of Ratcliffe, Darr & Co. was strongly of the belief that the ruling as to alestate values was just as it should be. “Why,” said he, “when you come right down to it the valueof any pieceof real estate is never any more than what the owner of it is able to get for it when he is in a hurry to sell 4nd has to sell whether ne wants to or no. Of course when everything is favorable a man when he hus a chance to buy a piece of prop- erty that will bring him in six’ per cent. ipter- est net may feel sure that he has got his mofiey's worth every time, but it is my honest opinion that his property hus as its real value only about thesum that it will bring him in at auction. The other day Iwas selling a piece of property at auction and received a bid for it that seemed to me a good one. ‘The owner re- fused to let it goat that and when I asked him his reason he told me that he had been offered $150 more for it the day before. But when Icame to inquire into the circumstances I found that the man that had made the offer did not have the money at all. So you see that did not alter my belief that the real value of property is only the amount pa gee hard cash that it will bring at foreed under unfavorable cir- cumstances.” Mr. John Joy Edson said that ke thought the definition by the new board of assessors of the true value of property assessed for taxa- tion was a wise one. No one will tise "placed pet peopetty ter “eee ation y roperty for aie ‘asscosing tazntion should be the Lowest valuation. fo say that the market value oF sup) market value of would be the correct valuation for assessment would create the greatest confusion. Mr. R.O. Holtzman said that he rule made by the assessors was good. always thought that was the true basis for taxation of real estate. The of rty sold under adverse circumstances was, in his opinion, thetrae ratio nite value. Aw it is, | A MYSTERIOUS AFFAIR. A Woman Found Bieeding But Refesee to ‘Tell Who Assaulted Mer.
