FINDING THE RUNAWAYS. Jessie March and Florence Kaye Discovered | Inst in New York. Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. New Yors, Jan. 15.—By the strangest chance in the world Jessie March and Florence Kaye, the two girls who ran away from Washington on New Year's day to goon the stage, were found last night. Mra. Kaye, worn out by anxiety. went home yesterday, leaving Mrs. March to continue the search. Last night Mrs. March visited some old family friends living in West 17th street. About 10 o'clock she started home. She de- cided to walk up 8th avenue, the Bowery of the West Side, The anxious mother thought she might see her daughter in the gay procession of girls and — women. tween 34th and 35th strects Mrs. March saw two girls looking into a shop window. One of them was a tall, graceful girl. with such dress ay her daughter had worn when she left Wash- ington, She could see the other girl's face and recognized it as that of pretty Florence Kaye. Very quietiy the mother went to them and called them by name. The girls, who had fancied themselves secure from detection. were very much startled, but decided to go with the mother without making any resistance. ‘They wanted to go to their boarding house for some clothes they had there and Mr, March went with them, stopping ata telegraph office on the way to send the good news to Florence's mother in Wash- ington. @IRLS MUCH DISCONCERTED. ‘The girls were very much disconcerted at be- ing caught, but consented to go with the mother. She would have called a policeman to her aid if they had not. They went to a house on 8th avenue where the girls had aroom and got their clothes, then the happy mother and the two girls, whose ambitious dreams of his- trionic triumphs had _ been so suddenly dissi- Reed, went to Mrs. March’s apartments in West 35th street, whore Mrs. March put them to bed and talked to them. Both the girls are rather proud of their es- capade and only sorry that their excursion did not last longer. ‘THE GIRLS TELL THEIR STORY. ‘They told their story to a Stan correspond- ont this morning. Pretty Miss March, speaking for both. said: ““We are tired of Washington and wanted to visit New York, so we came and have had a splendid time.’ We went to the Smith House first, and when we found they were after us we skipped away and went to a boarding house on 8th avenue near 45th street. We have been there ever since. I don’t want to tell you the number of the hor because the reporters would go there an bother the people. We enjoyed ourselves very much going to the theaters and seeing tho sights. I can’t say I um sorry to go home, because I don't want mamma to be worried, but I will be back in New York again very soon. We had about decided to go with pany that Gus Williams is organizing to | produce a new play.” Mrs. March is very proud of her suecess in finding the girls after Inspector Byrnes and his detectives had failed. She will not start home with the two girls till Sunday, perhaps Monday. EXPERIENCE OF THR ANXIOUS MOTHERS. Mrs. Kaye, as already stated, yesterday re- turned to her home in Washington. Mra. Kayo has been a victim of nervous paralysis and fears a recurrence of the disease. She had been searching almost constantly ever since she came here. In Jessie March's trank at home her mother found a lot of theater programs, in which the names of actors and actresses she knew were marked. There was one or more persons in nearly every company that had visited Wash- ington during the season, as indicated. All of the companies which are in New York were visited, but nothing had been seen of the two stage-struck girls by the members of any of them. ‘Tho two mothers had a novel experience at the Academy of Music here, where Joseph Jefferson's “The Country Circus” is playing. ‘A large number of “supernumeraries” are em- ployed in the production and no training or experience is required to fill these places. It was thought by the mothers that the runawa: might have “gone on the stage” in this way. ‘They went to the theater just before the per- formance and told Manager Erlanger, one of Mr. Jefferson's partners, their errand. He took them back on the stage, where the whole troupe of nearly 200 performers, nearly all young women, were putting the finish ing “touches to their costumes. the whole lot of the girls drawn up ina line on the stage in their spangles and fleshings, and Mrs. Kaye and Mrs. March I them all over. ‘The two girls who wero wanted were not there and the mothers went away with heavy hearts. ‘They visited all the Bowery dimo museums and concert halls where they thought thero ‘was @ possibility of the girls being found, but did not get even so much asa tangible clue. An artist who eats glass or something of the sort at a6th avenue dime museum said he saw them in the audience one day last week, and this was absolutely the last trace of the girls the mothers found. ——— GARZA CLEARS OUT.

A Democratic Caucus May Be Called to De- cide as to Their Binding Force. Mr. Holman had under serious consideration Yesterday the advisability of withdrawing his resolution declaratory of the sense of the House on subsidies and other matters involv- ing appropriation and of amending it so as to make its wording less stringent. The opposition which developed to the resolution was unexpected by Mr. Holman, who had an- ticipated that a considerable proportion of the members of the republican side would vote for itand that it would have almost the united support of the: democratic members. The spirit of antagonism shown to it by ® number of democrats was therefore a to him and led to the motion made by Mr. Holman yesterday having in view its mod- ification or repair, ax suggested by Mr. Reed, lender of the republican minorty. Mr. Holman found, however, that the defec- tion was not as serious as had been feared and that the proposed amendment to the resolution would rob it of much of its force and permit in the future a very liberal construction of its purport as applied to specific objects. It is thought that, even as the — resolu- tion stands, there will be s sufficient difference of opinion in the future in the in- terprotation to be given it in specific instances, and that it would be well to stand by the res- olution as originally framed and not let the down to a greater extent. A democratic member of the House committee on appropriations, who was asked about the change of plan from last night, said this morning that the army was found to be allright and in good shape, and there was uo occasion for repairs. The lack of united. harmonious action de- veloped yesterday led to some talk among some of the democratic members of the desirability of holding a caucas at which there might be ® general discussion of party policy and an agreement with reference to the course to be pursued. ‘This talk has not yet orystalized into the form of the circulation of a call fora caucus, but several members have the sub- ject under consideration and = may draft a call and band it around for signatures. Other democrats think. how- ever, that as matters have righted themselves as respect the present sabject before the House —the Holman resolution—it would be well to defer a party caucus for the present. --—— FLOKISTS AND THE FAIR. ‘They Want Information to Enable Them to Make an Exhibit.

Why a Lady Thought Washington Less Ex- pensive Than Most Other Cities. “Washington is the cheapest city to live in that I know of,” said a lady who came hither from Boston a year ago to is less expensive than Boston by at least 25 per cent on everything from house rent to market- ing. Ibuy nice spring chickens here now for 35 cents apiece. In Boston I would pay 75 cents. Round steak in Boston costs 28 cents a pound. In Washington the best cuts of it are 18 cents. Vegetables are proportionately cheaper in this town, and so are eggs. “House rents in Boston are enormous. If you want to be considered anybody you must live within certain small districts, where dwell- ings are let at fabulous pricea I live in the midst of the fashionable part of Washington, and have one of the prettiest little houses in town. My rent is $45 a month. In Boston for the same price I might be able to get two rooms, but nothing more unless I went into the slums or out into the country. You hear a deal about the cheap rents of Philadel- phia, but I have lived there also, and I assert that they are no less than in Washington. But if you are going to live in the fashionable part of Philadelphia you are obliged to pay very big rents. “Servants’ wages are 25 per cent less in Washington than in Boston. Coal is nearly as much cheaper. Labor of all sorts costs much re. I know from experience ihat one cannot live so eheaply it go as in Wash- ington. New York, of course, is — bie for people of moderate means. Hotels here are very reasonable in their charges, and so are boarding houses. Before I came here I heard from several quarters that this was a very expensive place to live, but I declare emphai- ically that one can be more comfortable and enjoy more luxuries on a given income in Washington than anywhere else in the United tates.” Ss ‘Mr. Moss Makes a Statement. In the Criminal Court, before Justice Brad- ley, this morning, Mr. John A. Moss, the col- ored lawyer. whose name was mentioned yes- terday by Mr. Peyton in connection with the case of Joseph West, asked to make a state- ment. Mr. Mose said that so far as Mr. Pey- ton’s statement affected him it was unfounded, unjust and damaging. He had appeared ‘for West in the Police Court, having been engaged by Mr. Petersen, but be had nothing whatever to do with the alter- cation which Ricks is said to have had with Peyton.

The Commissioners explained that it was their purpose to surrender thirty feet at each end of tho reservation, and eek the market | company to convey forty feet of their land just north of the wholesale block, whieh would give them the requisite depth. ‘The thirty feet they abandoned would give the market company two broad entrance ways to the 7th ‘and 9 th would really be the gainers’ by the concemion.

President Ordway of the market company read the following memorandum in relation | to the project, which he bad laid before the | directors of the market company: The attention of the president of the Wasb- ington Market Company bas been called by the Commissioners of the District to plans which the inspector of buildings hax prepared, under the direction of the Commissioners, for the erection of an artistic stone “District Capitol building,” to be located upon the in- closed park in ‘front of the Ceuter Market, rtions of which ground were released to the istrict, under an act of Congress, March 1873, a5 a site for a District bnilding which would protect the archivesand accommo date the District offices. At the time of the release of this front and most valuable land by the market company to the District of Colum- bia it was understood and agreed that the center of the District building should be located as near as practicable on the front at the junction of Penusylvania and Louisiana avenues, and that the building only extend east and west from that point a suffi- cient number of feet to make its entire length 274 feet and its width eighty- ‘ix feet, leaving the remainder of thus Feloased between the cast and west ends of the proposed building, and ‘7th and 9th streets as pele space to be used for walks toreach the market buildings, with perhaps ® fountain in the center of these ‘open spaces, also some ornamental land) improvements, the whole including walks to be kept properly lic, but entirely pro ed and open to the pub- jibited from being for sales of any products whatever, thus leaving the elaborate north fronts of the 7th and 9th the Eee Market in full street wings of the market and gronnds (9s set forth in the charter) should be provided by allow- ing the market company to erect and provide a beavy artistic iron bridge, or geway from the junction’ of Peansyivanin snd Louisiana ovennes to and through the wholesile market row (xo called), thus connecting the center of the B street market with the avenues before ae of these a ‘n pursuance understandings, ments and stipulations the market company ordered built, at a very large expense, an elaborate iron’ bridge aud passageway across the center of the eighty-six feet of land thus receded or released to the District of Columbia. The market company also, under an agreement with the District ati- thorities, allowed the ground opposite the cen- ter of the junctions of Pennsylvania and Louis- jana avenues to be extended temporarily from 86 feet to 110 feet, in order to render the lot while still unused for purposes intended more proportional, and also erected an iron fence on the south side of the District lot, thus giving temporarily the District and the public for the purpose of a park quite a large space of land which the market company was entitled to use. It is now understood that the District Commissioners desire the market com- pany to make a permanent concession to the district tor its building of about thirty fet of ground in the center of the lot described, and to surrender the center passageway, which would entail the loss of from $20,000 to $25,000 in removing the elaborate iron’ bridge across the park and shortening the iron way to the soldiers’ barracks and vecond stories of the market building. It is understood that the Coumissioners also desire to extend their building twelve or fourteen feet east and west beyond the length of the whole- sale market row, making that building 300 feet long and about 100 feet deep. For the con- cessions on the part of the market company the directors should authorize the executive com- mittee (if the board decides to assent to them) to secure ample remuneration for the cost of the iron bridges, walk and stairways, which will have to be taken down and removed: and also such additional concessions with refec- ence to the uses of the land to be used in com- mon, and absolute concession of sufti- cient land at the cast and west ends of the lot to make a broad entrance for carriuges, and for ample sidewalk extending the District, from 7th to 9h streets, with suita- ble walks connecting with this wide sidewalk around Pennsylvania and Louisiana avenues at the east and west ends of the proposed build- «Ff these and other just guarantees can. be se- cured it is undoubtedly incumbent upon the -officers of the market company to aid the Dis- trict Commissioners in carrying out in good faith by reasonable concessions the agreements entered into between the District officers and the Washington Market Company, which by ite terms went into effect April 3, 1873, and which has been assented to in good faith by both parties thereto.
