In the hearing before United States Commis- sioner Mills yesterday of Joseph R. Wheatley. charged with violating section 5451 of the Re- vised Statutes relating to bribing government officers, Inspector Roome of the pension office described the manner in which the arrest was brought about and told of the convorsation he had with Wheatley. His testimony was that on the day of the arrest he called at Mr. Wedder- burn’s office by direction of the chief of his division and after he reached there the pris- oner came in. In conversation with Wheatley the latter told JUDGE HARPER'S VICTIMS. & Number of Prisoners Answer to Charges Brought Against Them. ‘When the Police Court convened this morn- ing there was not the usual motley crowd oc- cupying the benches. A band of music had passed the building a few minutth before the time for opening court and many of the regu- Jar visitors had followed the procession. ‘That accounted for their absence. There was about the usual number of pris- oners in the dock, twenty-three men and boys and eleven women and girls.

Policeman Wagner explained to the court how the “crap shooters” of Willow Tree alley had adopted a new mode of playing the game without leaving any money Yehind when the o ‘appears ‘They ee daa amount of money on the game instead of put- ting down thecash. Charlie Hopkins, a young colored man, was in last night's game, and he also had a deck of cards in his pocket. “Iwas only playing ‘five up’ for fan,” was Hopkins’ statement, and hisfun cost him €5 or two weeks’ time on the farm.

She was charged with hav- ing been disorderly on 7th street and she claimed that she was arrested one square west of that street. Five dollars or thirteen days was her sentence. Mary Smith denied that she was guilty of dis- orderly conduct. She contradicted the state- ment of Policeman Barnes, but the court believed the officer's side of the case and imposed the usual fine. Lancaster, a well-dressed young colored man arrested by Policeman Denny, wa tried for being disorderly on Pennsyl avenye. His pocket book did not corr: with the character of his wearing apparel, and when the judge said $5 Lancaster stepped back with the other victims. ‘TRESPASSING ON GARFIELD PARK. A young colored couple, George Brown and Lottie Lane, arrested for trespassing on Gar- field Park, were called. George was in the pro- cession, but Lottie had left $5 c@llateral, which she did not call for. Policeman Garraway told Judge Harper that people like the defendants had made the park an unfit place for respectable eople to pase through and he was trying to Break it ub “The court will do all in its power to accom- plish the same result,” said Judge Harper, and 8 fine of $5 was imposed. Policeman McNaily told of George Johnson's indecent conduct on 7th street. George is a young colored man and last night he was under the influence of liquor. His condition was no doubt the cause of his detective memory thi morning. He denied everything that the otfi- cer said, but the judge did not believe him and fined him €10 or thirty days.

Mr. Murray sus- tained the role of the Marquis, a part that has been identified with Mr. Carleton himself, and proved himself a worthy substitute. He sang well and the encores he received for the famous waltz song were too numerous to count. Miss Clara Laue made a charming Nanon, full of spirit and fun and singing with her accustomed excellence. Miss Vincent was suffering from a cold, yet she wasattractive in the part of Ninon. Messrs. ao aud Fitzgerald made all the fun possible in their respective parts end con- tributed largely to the enjoyment of the even- ing. Mr. Miles Parker made an excellent Abbe and obtained a deserved encore for his solo in the last act. ‘Tonight will be “The Mikado.” Buistor’s Epvcatep Honsrs.—Horse opera will succeed the Carletons at Albaugh’s next week, and yet the animals that Prof. Bristol will present seem to be almost endowed with human intelligence.

A thirteen-year-old Arabian peddier named Oney Achar. was tried in the Police Court to- day for peddling in the county without « license. Lawyer Moss, who appeared for him, argued that the boy was a stranger and was not ac- ainted with the laws, but the judge told him Sot the boy was not eo ignoraat of the law as he pretended to be. He had discussed the license questior with Policeman West, who ar- rested him, and without the officer's tellin him anything ke said: “If you give me $50 Il get the .icense.* Counsel then argued for the reicase of the boy on his personal bonds, and said that he should be given a chance, as this country was an asylum for the oppressed of foreign coun- tries. Judge Harper finally concluded to take the boy's personal bonds, and told him that ifhe continued to do business without a license be would be arrested and sent down. a Found Out Why He Was Arrested. Richard Washington, a young colored man, told Judge Harper this morning that he started with his wife last night toatwnd a mecting of | the True Reformers and that before returning home he got arrested for nothing. Policeman Nairn said that he arrested Wash- ington for being disorderly and while he was under arrest he was asswulted by the prisoner. He also sgid that a large stone was thrown at him by some one in the crowd. Washington was tine? $15 or 45 dasa. zeta A Clever Piece of Work. Last week a merehant located near the Metro- politan Hotel had stolen from his bed a gold watch and reported it at police headquarters. Just before discovering his loss be had hired some colored men to move a piece of furniture and tliey had left in the wagon and returned and received their pay. On describing the men the detectives found who they were and were on the lookout for the watch being pawned. The merchant, however, came to the conclusion as to which’ of the three men had taken the wateh, and on Monday told this man of the loss, stating that there were but few watches of the kind in the country and if it was ocked the thief would be surely caught. ‘Thinking that he had frightened the man and he would tell the others he concluded to give them an opportunity to return it, and yester- morning engaged them to move more fur- niture in the alternoon. They appeared with the wagon at the appointed time and were shown toaroom adjoming that from which the watch had been stolen and told what to do. The job was soon performed and the furniture removed, and when the merchant went to the room he found that his game had worked suc- cessfully, for the watch had been left on a mat- tress. ——»—_—_ Detiontret bath at Colonial and Clifton.

Labor day this year falls on Monday, Sep- tember 7, and the day will be fittingly observed by the local men. Last night the Federation of Labor held a mecting and decided to parade with the Bricklayers’ Union on that day. One of the most important acts at last night's meet ing was the recognition of the delegation from Columbia Typographical Union, whose dele- gates last fall withdrew. The Darby and Me- Queen boycott was indorsed. On Labor day, besides the parade, in which many of the assemblies will participate, there will bea number of excursions, with speeches and a good time.

Then lists of customers who have refused to pay their grocery bills will be furnished all the members of the asso- ciation and the members will know whom to trust. It is said to be impossible to carry on the grocery business here on atrictly cash basis and this association will be a valuable means of abolish- ing bad debts on Alexandria grocers’ books, it being arranged that the ‘bad pays” shall never get credit at two stores. DEATH OF CAPT. BROOKS. Capt. Wm. H. Brooks, well known here and in Washington, died yesterday at his home here.

Apropos it may be interesting to some of these readers to know that a buuch of penny- royal laid loosely around a room infested with fleas will rid it of them effectually. Also that a little camphor sprinkled on the pillow or face will keep away mosquitoes and that small ants will not go near a place smelling of varnish. Unfortunately I cannot try this on my ante, as they are all outside the house.

To the Editor of The Evening Star: Your special correspondent, writing from Camp Moore, Ocean View, under date of Au- gust 23, 1891, in referring to tho lack of dis- cipline in camp takes occasion to say that “all the battalions havo fallen almost entirely out of the babit of respecting the authority or obeying without question the orders of the hour” and that this is ‘‘the sad case throughout the brigade.” So far as the writer is personally concerned the above statements would be given only a passing notice, but in justice to the officersand enlisted men, who were often compelled to do double duty in order to keep up the regular order of the camp, I must protest against i cluding the camp of the sixth battalion as o wanting in anything except, perhaps. prof cienco in drill, and this we do not lay claim to. Had your correspondent done us the honor of visiting our camp he would undoubtedly have spared me the pain it causes me to be obliged to correct his statements.
