OBJECTION SUSTAINED. Judge Bradley, in sustaining the objection of | the government, said that the defense having | informed the witness by its question of the character of the answer it desired, the question was an improper one, and therefore could not be aeked. Judge Wilson then stated that be had no other question to ask the witness, and noted an exception to the court's ruling. Edwd. B. Combs, a young white man, re- ling at No. 1765 Q street, said he heard’ two very distinct shots, followed by five very rap- idly fired ones. Crose-examined—The witness stated that he counted the shots mentally as they were fired. He knows Frank Schneider and tie prisoner, having known the latter for several years. Ho kuows Mrs. Robey, but never said to her thata man had the right to shoot any one who came between him and his wife. He had, however, said that no one had the right to interfere be- tween man and wife, but be did not have the present case in mind when that was said. J. Milton Young, another young man, said he was in No. 1765 Q street when the shooting took place. He did not count the shots, but had the impression that there were seven shots—tirst two shots, then five more in rapid succession. On cross-examination witness admitted that he and Mr. Combs, the preceding witness, had talked about the number of shots fired several times since the shooting. EMMA JACKSON.

THE RIVES FRONT IMPROVEMENT, No Work Dope to imhanes the Value of the Disputed Area. ‘TRE PROVO IW THE RIVER AND HARBOR BILL ‘MAT UNDSVIDITRLT DELAY THE Wonk—a TALE ‘WITH THE BNGIFRER IX CEAROE—PROVEION ALREADY MADE BY LAW To GUARD THB DN- TRAESTS OF THE GOVERKMENT. As stated in Tax Stan yesterday the river and harbor bill that was reported in the House in the afternoon provides for an appropriation Of $200,000 for the improvement of the Poto- mac flats. It was modified by the proviso that no part of this sum sbull be expended until the auit now pending involving title te the Tiver front shall have been tried in the court of the first instance, and shell not then be expended should the decision be adverse to the government, In the opinion of those who are familiar with ‘the situation the effect of this proviso will Le to puta stop for an indefinite period to the work of improving the flats. The evident pur- pose in tacking on this restriction to the aj Propriation was to force the trial of th well claims, involving the title to some fort; Innd at the upper endof the the Kidweil meadows, This suit’ in equity has been pending since 18%6. Even if, as is hoped, the case showd be broaght up in the Supreme Court before daly an ‘early decision is not looked for, and the result, it is said, must neccessarily be that work on the flats will come toa standstill soon. There is still a considerable sun unex- pended and at the control of the engineer de- partment, but this is all covered by contracts which will expire before July 10. From then until such time as the $200,000 becomes ayaila- ble nothing can be done if the bill becomes a law with the proviso referred to attached to it. So WORK ON THE DISPUTED AREA. In point of fact there bas been no work done on that part of the flats that are in dispute since the Kidwell claims were filed. Maj. Charles E. L. B. Davis of the engineer corps, the officer in charge of the improvement of flats, was seen bya Stan reporter this morning and the matter was discussed at some length. have not been in charge of this work very long.” said Maj. Davis, “but as 1 understand it there has been no filling in on the Kidwell meadows nor any work done on them that would actually enhance their value since 1836. “this is in accordance with the act approved August 5 of that year, entitied ‘An act to pro- vide for protecting the interests of the United States in the Potomac river flats, in the District of Columbia.’ ~The iret clause of the act is as follows: ‘That it shall be the duty of the Attorney General of the United States to institute, as soon as may be, in the Supreme Court of the District of Co- lumbia, a suit against all persons and corpora- tions who may have or pretend to have any right, title, claim or interest in any part of the land or water in the District of Columbia within the limite of the city of Wash- ington, or exterior to said limits and in front thereof t#ward the channel of the Potomac river, and composing any part of the land or water affected by the improvements of the Po- tomac river or ity flats in charge of the Secre- tary of War, for the purpose of establishing and making the right of the United States ‘thereto.’ “After describing the nature of the suit the act concludes with this clause: “That until the final decision of the matters hereinbefore in this act mentioned shall have been had no moneys appropriated for the improvement of the Potomac river within the District of Co- Jumbia, the establishment of harbor lines with- in the District of Columbia and the raising of the flats therein shall be expended otherwise than upon property in respect of which there ia no claint adverse to the title of the United States or for the improvement of navigation in the said river.’ “The engineer corps has been guided all along inits work by the provisions of that act. ‘The act was submitted to the controller of the treasury and all payments were made in ac- cordance with his rulings. ‘The meadows that are in litigation are at the upper end of the flats, and so have not interfered with the work of filling in that has all been carried on below. So far as it was desired to prevent the expenditure of money on land whose title not clear that act would seem to be sufficient. The object of the proviso in the river and harbor bill, I presume, is to force the suit toahearing. Sofar us I'can see now, however, it means that as soon as our resent contracts have been completed we will have to stop work entirely until the case is decided by the Supreme Court, and the appropriation of £200,000 provided for in the river aud harbor bill becomes available.” ‘THE CASE MAY 800N BE TRIED. Mr. Hugh T. Taggart, the special assistant attorney in charge of the government's side of the case in the suits invoiving title to the flats, said toa Stan reporter today that he expected before the money appropriated by the biil would be available the case would be heard in the Disirict court. “As every one knows who has examined the matter,” he added, ‘this case is one of the most complicated that has ever been presented in any court. It in volves a large mass of details, going back to the early history of the District, and naturally the evidence is very bulky. ‘This is being printed and the volumes should have been ready by this time, only unfortunately the printer became financially involved and the work was stop; Arrangements have been made to have it completed and we expect in the course of a short time to be able to call the case up in court.” As is well known, the case involves more than the Kidwell claim. It affects the riparian rights of property ail along the river front. It is said to be one of the most important cases of the kind tha: hae been tried in the District. Mr. Taggart was selected to prepare the case for the government because of his special knowledge of the history of the District which he had acquired in the course of the years be has devoted to the study of this subject. vsccintu> Baibars A Disputed Insurance Claim. In the Circuit Court, Justice Montgomery, this morning the case of the administratrix of the late M. V.

Mr. Casey died in October, 1856, from a dose of Rough on Rats, which the plaintiff claims was taken accidentally and that, therefore, the amount is dye. ‘Che defendants claim that the dose was taken with suicidal intent and they are, therefore, not liable. pions ca Maryland Legislative Notes. ‘The following house bills among others have been pamed by the Maryland senate: To in- corporate Laytonsvilie, Montgomery county ‘To authorize Brookville, Montgomery county, to borrow money to pavé ajdewalks.

Mr.Burnbam will attend the meet- ing. ‘The Need of Coast Defenses, To the Editor of The Evening Star: I beg pardon for asking admission to your columus again, but the old adage teaches us to “strike whilo the iron is hot,” and now seems to bea guod time to tell the American people some good, wholesome truths. Twice in the past year have we approached perilously near the stirring scenes of actual war, and again we are confronted with condition that is full of menace. Abler writers than myself have shown that if hostilities were be- gun with Englund she could have her steel clads and deadly guns upon our lakes inside of aweek; that virtnally no point along our ocean fronts is inastate of security from sudden attack, and that is what we can surely expect should war actually occur, for John Bull is no slouch about wading into a fight when he has the advantage. The greatest objectors to strong national de- fenses, both seaboard and naval, are those who live in the interior of the country. They do not look upon the matter in the proper light and give due consideration to the thought that a city-destroved upon the guif or the Atlantic isa loss to the whole nation; that the whole is equat tothe sum of all its parts, and the more of the parts are taken away the less of the whole will there be. Neither do they fully consider the vast importance of the open seaports and the incalculable loss and stagnation to business that would certainly result from their closure, capture or destruction. The closing of the southern ports had a supreme influeace in accomplishing the overthrow of the conted- eracy. It was literally starved out for mate- rials of war. While our country is now in better condition for supplying military neces- sities than at the begining of the civil war, yet the greater effectiveness of modern weapons lengthens the time for their con- struction exceedingly. What would have been the result and when would the end have been reached if as much time had then been required to construct a large gun as is now necessary? I am_ told that it requires at least a year to build one of the twelve-inch guns like those now in process of construction at the navy yard. We have many guns now; go down to the navy yard and you can see them piled out in the open air by the score, some oi them that have talked busi- ness, too; but of what avail ar they? We might just as wellarm our little with old-fashioned pop-guns and try tocheck a modern navy by that means as to attempt such @ thing with those old relics of the glories of the past generation. Con- gressmen argue that theres no use toauthorize the building of any more vessels before 1894, as the material cannot be obtamed; but could it not be procured sooner und cheaper now, when thousands of men are idie, than in the heat and excitement of war, when ‘every available man was wanted at the front? A few more words fer my neighbors from the rior. ‘The Mississippi and its many tribu- re at present open highways without an effective gun upon any of their banks. What would prevent a dozen well-built, rapid gun bonts of the style of tue Bennington and Concord from making a sudden dash up the river? Where could they be stopped? Not till they reached Pittsburg, St. Paul or any other points where there water suiticient to float them. more than a year's preparation and with a full knowledge of its great importance the confederates were not able to stop Farragut below New Orleans; neither were they able to event the Union gun boats passing Vicke- urg with impunity, strongly as that place was fortified. Our reliance upon submarine mines, torpedves, sunken ships and ali other such methods wiil certainly prove delusive should a practical attempt be made against them. If there is trouble we can rely upon getting hard knocks and if we are not ready to giv hard knocks in return the result will most a suredly be extremely disastrous. This shoul j Be no partisan question. While it will require much money to place the nation in « defensive condition the American yeople will approve of the expenditure. Let them read almost the last words of Samuel J. Tilden and heed his patriotic utterance, We are now almost surrounded with fortresses bristling ‘with powerful guns, the refuges of many war vessels of the latest patterns and of the greatest speed.
