HARD ON ‘The Heat in the Cells Was Intense—Cases Disposed THE PRISONERS. of. The prisoner# who were taken to the Police Court this morning were intense sufferers from the heat, although Prison Keeper Madigan did ‘all in his power to relieve them. There were thirty-seven prisouers in all—twenty-six men and boys and eleven women and girls—in three cells, which are beneath atin roof and glass skylight. The heat in the cells was intense and Officer Madigan left the cell doors open and let the unfortunates go from the cells to the hydrant and help themselves. The men and women either sat on the floors or squatted down where the air was a degree or two cooler. When court opened it was a great relief to many of them te join in the first procession and march into the coartroom, where it was much cooler than in the cells. EXCURSIONINTS IN TROUBLE. Fonr of them were James Davidson, Edward | Williams, Walter West and Johu Roberts, young | colored men who eame here from Richmond on an excursion yesterday morning. After going through the public buildings and climbing and descending the steps in the monument grounds | they stopped beneath a shade tree on the grass in the monument groundsand from there they were given a ride in the Se wagon by Ofticer Klinger. When one of the young men had told his story Judge Harper asked him what he thought of the city. “It's toler'ble nice,” was his response. “Don't you think we have pretty parks?” “Yes, they are pretty good.” ‘What are you going to do if I let you go?” Til go sti t out of the city.” ‘And that your story?” o, sir: that’s not a story, it’s the truth.” ccepted their personal bonds. James Boyd, an old man who acts as a guide about the public buildings, was in line ona similar charge. He had complained of feeling sick from the fects of the weather and was resting in the shade when the same officer came along and arrested him. He was also released on his own recognizance. ‘A BAD RECORD. “You have a bad record,” was what the judge told Jessie McCoy, who was charged with violating almost every clause of the vagrancy act.

Policeman Curry’s jadge Harper's of the Case. In the case of Joseph Rodgers, tried in the Police Court yesterday, charged with disor- derly conduct and asgault on Policeman Curry, Mr. Clagett represented the prosecution. but he had nothing to say in justification of the officer's usd of hisclubon the colored man's head. “ Officer Curry in giving his testimony said that he first saw Rodgers and scolored woman near 10th street and Massachusetts avenue northeast. Both were under the influence of liquor, and when he heard them talking loudly he advised them to go home. Later in the morning he heard them im the alley near 8th street. were cursing and wrangling over 21 cents in the basement door of an unfinished house. He placed them under arrest and they went along allright until the mouth of alley was reached, when Rodgers struck at him and said: “I'll be —if you can take both of us." “He tried to pull the woman from him and then struck him in the face. ~-Then I struck him with my club,” said the officer, “‘and knocked him down.” “What did you arrest him for?” inquired wver Hewlett. “Drunk and disorderly,” responded the officer. “bat was the disorder?” ‘He was cursing and swearing.” “How drunk was the man?” SEVEN-TENTHS DRUNK. fe was about seven-tenths drunk, I should nd you had to kill a seven-tenths drunken to get him to the station?” If he had not struck me I would not have struck him.” Policeman Brown was next called and he told of a conversation tl i while the latter was 1 Rodgers, he waid, ‘responded, “If he got me Ta got him." Witness then ked what he was doing there and he replied, “I've been in bad company.” Policeman Pearson told of a visit he made to the prisoner's cell at 6 o'clock in the morning, when the latter told him: “I did not intend to hurt the officer.” RODGERS DENIES THAT HE RESISTED. The defense called Mr. A. P. Cunningham, who told the same story that was printed in Tue Staw y, characterfsing theconduct of the policeman as @ piece of brutality Witness oniy heard of one blow, but there were several cuts on the man’s head. W. T. Graves gave similar testimony, and the risoner with the battered head gave in pain and was hardly able to tell his side of the affair. Ho admitted that he bad been drink- ing Saturday evening, but denied that he used auy bad language or resisted the officer. Mr. Hewlett in his argument said that per- sons were often brought into court for inflict- ing blows on dumb animals and fined for it, but never did he know of an animal being beaten so severely as was this poor old colored his,” he said, “is the worst spectacle ever witnessed in a court of justice. ‘This poor man was unmercifully beaten, and in a manner that was worse than a brute ‘could have been beaten, unless it was done by # pervon with a heart of steel.” NOT A SCRATCH ON THE OFFICER. He referred to the fact that there was not that the charge of assault was brought to pro- tect the latter. He argued that if the officer could not take a seven-tenthadrunken man to the station without killing him he is not fit to make an arrest of any sort. “This thing,” suid counsel, “has got to stop, and I mean it. ‘These people are not to be beaten in this way without any excuse what- ever, und unless it is, soon stopped some one else will take ahand ‘This is not Mississippi or Louisiana. SENTENCE SUSPENDED. Judge Harper in disposing of the case spoke of his knowledge of police affairs and said that the question of the officer's conduct was not to be decided by the court. The trial board was the proper place for that, and he said the case sheuld properly go before that board. The court found from the evidence that the defendant had violated the law, but in consid eration of the punishment he had already re- ccived the court would impose a fine of $3 and suspend venten ee Irving Park Union Camp.

Still, those who were present were enthusiastic, the applause was liberal and cores were frequent. The opera gi morita,” Czibulka'’s tuneful composition, « work with which this city is very familiar.

Closing Scenes of Camp—“The Girl I Left Be- hind Me"—The Trip Home. All day Sunday farewells were the order. Capt. Simmons had his usual crowd of guests all day and far into the night. The girls gath- ered round the tents of Weber and Suess and re- fused to be comforted. As an evidence of their esteem Capt. Weber was presented with a fine pair of glasses, which can be adjusted for theater, field or marine work. It came partio- | formed ularly hard to part with the people of Colonial Beach, whose kindness and attention made the success of the camp a possibility. No effort or attention was spared to. make the time pass merrily and no aid was withheld that could contribute to the welfare of the camp. On the other hand the conduct of the soldiers was all that could be expected, anc one resident stated that it was the most orderly crowd that he had ever seen. Capt. Walcott entertained the officers last night. Champagne was served. The third battalion was toasted and responded to by Maj. | Harrison. Capt. Walcott’s health was then | drunk, to which Capt. Mahony responded, at the request of Capt. Walcott, who, on Capt. Mahony’s motion, was elected a lite honorary member. In his own behalf Capt. Walcott stated that none would welcome more he another visit from the third. The next toast was to Tue Evenrxe Star, which was re- sponded to by Tur Stax correspondent. The ty broke up and all bid a pleasant farewell Po capt. Walestt. At the earliest dawn yesterday the sound of the trumpet called all from sleep to work. Packing up occupied the early morning hours. ‘The company property was first taken care of and then the personal property, then the tents were struck and packed and all borrowed property returned. When all this was done the men were homeless, but not friendless. Open hands welcomed them and made the time pass happily. The boat at length arrived and every- thing vas losded upon it ‘There was ‘no dress parade but at the sound of the assembly the companies gathered upon what had been their rade, ground and were formed in battalion. ‘hey marched to the wharf to the tune of “The Girl I Left Behind Me,” which the major re- ested played in deference to Weber and juevs. Arrived at the boat all embarked in an erderly manner and the boat pulled. cut, and Camp Harrison was a thing of the past. _ Looking back upon the scenesand experiences nothing but the greatest satisfaction is to be expressed. Instruction they went down for and instruction they obtained. Everything that pertained to the strictest discipline was nerally kept up. Maj. Harrison expressed jimself as highly satistied with the work of both officers and men and considers it a camp ofa high order. Hecommended especially the obedience and discipline of the men and their soldierly conduct. No single case of discon- tent or insubordination can be pointed out and Maj. Harrison is to be congratulated upon #0 fine acommand. No small factor in the morale of the camp was the presence of the ladies of both ofticers and men, who lived at neighbor- ing boarding houses and frequented the camp. Among those who went down and came up with the boys were Mrs. Costinett and Mrs. Kobin- son. —_-— Excursions. The ballocn ascensions and_parchute jumps of Mise Grace Shannon at River View have proved wonderfully successful and have at- tracted large crowds to witness this young lady's daring performances. On Sunday over 4,000 Persons went to River View. Tomorrow, in addition to Miss Shannon's ascension, there will be a display of Japanese daylight fire- works, which is said to be the greatest, novelty ever imported into this country, and the num- ber who will want to go to River View will no doubt be unusually large. Tomorrow will be Knights of Pythias day at Glen Echo, where there wili be athletic sports, double and single sculi races, swimming matches, base bull games and good speaking and music. There will be a Lutheran reunion at Pen-Mar on the 2ist instant and preparations are being made to take a large number from this city. The Pennsylvania railroad will ran a special train and the Marine Band will accompany the excursionists. ‘The Odd Fellows’ Library Association and Ruth Lodge, No. 2, will give a combination ex- cursion to Bay Ridge on Thursday next and no better opportunity will be afforded for a day's enjoymen: at that popular resor. ‘The Caledonia Club will give a day and even- ing excursion to River View on Friday next, when there will be the usual games and prizes for children. —_———__ GEUKGL- TOW: ROW AT A BALL GaME. A base ball game that ended in a row was played yesterday on the Burleith subdivision. The trouble started when a member of the then losing team was accidentally struck with abst. The appearance of » gentleman drewed in blue clothes and who was mistaken for an officer dispersed the crowd. Balls, bats and belts were left on the field and some of them were gone.when the players returned, but after some search a colored boy was found making off with the missing articles and they were promptly taken from him. HURT BY A FALLING sw1N@. There were & number of picknicking parties in the college woods yesterday and numerous swings were hung from prominent limbs. One of these limbs *proved unsafe and fell with a crash in the midst of eight or ten little girls, and one of them, Nellie Williams, was struck on the hand and two of hez fingers were broken. This broke up one party an injured little miss, crying at the top of her voice, was brought to her home in a buggy, which was passing at ‘the time. FALL OF & TELEGRAPH POLE. Last night about 11 o'clock the residents on 85th street between O and P were startled by the sound of a heavy falling body. On an investi- gation it was found that a large telegraph pole, which had become decayed at the bottom, had fallen across the car track. This morning the pole is rudely proped up with boards and is liable at any moment to fall again. Cars are obliged to pass almost under it. ‘A DISORDERLY HOUSE RAIDED.
