Smith agreed that the statemer t was correct. Mr. Lipscomb read the paper to the jury. In it it be remembered that Smith said that eman in the middle of the boat picked up ar from the bottom of the boat. He also that he was sure that one man struck the WITNESSES FOR THE DEFENSE. Mr. Wise objected to the paper because it wae a copy and not the original, but Mr. Lips- comb retorted that it was signed by Smith him- self and was enough to impeuch Smith’s testi- mony given at this trial. Examination by Senator Voorhees developed the fuct that witness had read the paper over to Smith carefully and some of it twice before Smith signed his mark to the paper and there was no chance that the latter could possibly have misunderstood what he was doing. ‘The paper was admitted and the defense noted an exception. ‘As the hearing of the testimony began to drag toward a close there were numerous delays that made the long warm afternoon particu- larly tedious. ‘The introduction of Smith’ statement was about the last piece of evidence ‘tempted to show that Mr. von was asked whether he had not em- | tions which he desired the court to submit to and denied it em- | Senator Voorhees here took a hand and showed by bis questions and Mr. Niven’s an-| jiy consideration, and the court sewers that be was the one who had insisted | few minutes bofore 6 o'clock. gece Hampton lawyer and Mr. Mon-| A special from Winnipeg, Manttobs, says that rath “ \ marse ox TRE sraxD. regularly adduced.

Montague announced that the common- wealth was through with its evidence. TUE JURY REMOVED. Judge Gunter ordered the sheriff to remove the Jury while the matter of instructions was being argued. ‘After some little time spent in readiug over the instructions which had been prepared for the court, each side taking those of the other, Mr. Lipscom) read aloud the list of instruc- j the jury. ‘fhese were simply rules for the guidance of License Kegulations, ‘NO SALOON KEEPER TO BE ALLOWED TO SELL AFTER HI8 APPLICATION HAS ONCE BEEN RE JECTED—NO SCREENS OB CURTAINS TO OUT OFF THE VIEW OF THE BAR ROOMS. For some time Col. Robert has been bard at work getting up a new set of regulations gov- erning the issue of liquor licenses with a view to simplifying the whole matter. He has been in constant communication with the assistant | attorney for the District and Judges Miller and Kimball of the Police Court. Today he submitted the result of his labors to Commissioner Ross, who at ouce approved the proposed new regulations. ‘The regulations as presented by Col. Robert are almost identical with the old ones, except- ing section “+h” of the fourth regulation of the regulations for licensing the sale of intoxicat- | ing liquors. This section is stricken out and in lieu thereof the following is presented: When an application for a liquor license has been once rejected by the Commissioners the assessor shall immediately transmit to the | major of police the following notice to be | served upon the applicant in person or to be left ut his place of business: “Mr. ———: You are hereby notified that your application for a liquor license for —— street in the city (or county) of Wu: ington, District of Columbia, was on the lay of -, 189—, rejected by the Commis- sioners. There is now due you on account of your deposit the sum of ¢——, which you are entitled to upon demand. You are further notified that the above rejection terminated all rights you may have had to continue said busi- | at said place from and after forty ht hours after midnight of the day of service o! this notice, and that the police have been di- | rected to see that the same is closed.” | A copy of this notice, with che return of the officer making the service, showing when, where and upon whom the same was served, shall be filed with the application. Upon the first rejection by the Commission- ers of an application for a liquor license the | assessor shall also immediately certify the ac- count between the applicant and the District to the auditor, who shall refund the amount due the applicant accorcing to the provisions of section 2 of an act of the late} legislative assembly of the District of Co- lumbia entitled an act authorizing the ref ing of moneys erroneously paid for taxes also moneys paid for licenses not granted, authorizing payments from the surplus and redempticn fonds to persons to whom such money may belong, which reads as follows: “That whenever any pergon shall deposit money in the treasury for the purpose of procuring a license, and said license shall have been subsequently refused by legal authority, it shall be the duty of the accounting and div bursing oficers of the District to refund the | money 80 doposited, deducting thercfrom an amount justly proportionate to the time during which such license shall have beey used by the applicant therefor, or his representutives, and charge the amount so refunded to the fund which was credited with the original deposit.” If the applicant desires further considera- tion of his upplication, after rejection, he may file with the aeressora motion clearly setting forth the new or independent facts or reavons, ive, upon which he desires idecation, together with all the evidence in support thereof, but no such mo- tion shall operate to suspend or wet aside tho first rejection of the application or to confer upon tie applicant any right to engage in the said business until such time asa formal paper | license go to do shall have been duly issued to him. rovisions of this section are mtended to apply only to such applicants as were li- Censed for, the preceding yeur at the same | place, it being expressly understood that in All other cases the issuance of the license for the sale of spirituous and intoxicating liquors must precede the opening of the place where such liquors are to be sold in accordance with provisions of section — of these regulations. A XEW FORM OF LICENSE. Anew form of license was also submitted with the above, which differs from the old license in that it contains the following stipu- lations in the body of the license: “Provided, that the regulations of the Com- missioners, District of Columbia, governing the wale of distilied or fermented liquors, wines or cordials by retail shall be faithfully ob- Served by the licensee. And further provided that for any violation of contract subscribed to by the licensee on the margin this license may be forfeited or revoked.” ‘The following clauses are also added on the margin of the license: ‘*This license is granted ted upon these conditions: ‘That no ““{hat the bar room shall be closed between the hours of 12 midnight and 4 o'clock a.m. “That said bar room shail between those hours be exposed to fuli view from the street. “That there be no other entrance to suid bar vent of counsel, nor did the club of | the jury in deciding what constituted the va- I Hannegan were members im | rious degrees of kiiling and under what cir- j cumstances the homici:ie was justifiable. ‘A! the conclusion of the arguments on the part of Mr. Lipscomb and Ju Goode the in- structions were submitted to Gunter for vi room except as authorized by this license. that ior eny violation of law oF regulations of the Commissioners of the District of Colum- bia governing the sale of liquors this license shall be forfeited or revoked. “This must be subscribed to by the licensco Pete ens PORTANT CHAXORE ‘Tho most important change as proposed by Col.

Yesterday morning about fifteen minutes be- fore 2 o'clock the occupants of the female dor- mitory of the Washington City Orphan Asylum on lith street were startled by tne appearance of a strange man who had gotter in the build- ing after the hour for closing by raising a win- dow. Special Officer Prather, the watchman on duty at the asylum, was in the boiler room at the time, and the screams of the children at- tracted him to the third floor. Upon reaching the upper portion of the building be discovered the intruder, who was making his escape down stairs from the girl's dormitory. He pursued the stranger, but not having his pistol with him at the time and be- ing unable to overtake the man the latter es- cuped. Upon returning tothe building the officer discovered the open window through which the man had entered, and he also found his coat on He learned from oue 0. the children that she was awakened by the man putting his hand over her mouth, aid he told her not to scream. In the cout pockets was found a card bearing the name “H. Piepenbring, 48 Scott avenue. There was also a marriage certificate among the papers which bore ihe ‘Lucas b, Dovel, Braiton, V Nannie S. Moss, Mont- Komery county, The name of the Kev. C. E. Dudrear, as officiating minister, also ap- peared on the certiticate. Policeman Appleby was called in, and yester- day he went with Special Ofiicer Prather to the Piepeubring house on Scott avenue and Ham- mond Piepenbring, a young man, was arrested and locked up on a charge of housebreaking at the asylum with intent to commit a felony. ‘He admitted that he was the owner of the cont, bat he denied that he was the one who eutered the asylum. iis statement was that he had been assaulted on 7th street by two men, who took his coat from him and ran off. Qiiicer Prather, however, identified him as the man whom he pursued yesterday morning, and he also stated that he had seen the pris- oner loitering about the asylum during the past two or three weeks. This morning be was taken before Judge Kimball and tried on a charge of housebreak- ing. He asked to have a witness called, be- cause, he suid, he could prove that he was in bed at the time charged.
