Many Saloons Were Open Yesterday—The Question of Prosecution. Yesterday was not a “dry day” so far as the those who had been out the night before had no trouble in getting an early morning cocktail. There was no notice of a suspension of any laws, but many of the saloon keepers took the chances and kept their places wide open, as and all day longon Penn- well as on the side streets, ‘The prosecution of the liquor men for keep- f open is a question for serious consideration on account of the pastage of the new liquor a It is thought in some quarters that the per- sons who kept their places open cannot be prose- cuted because of the condition of the liquor The new law, it is claimed, provides for Proveentions of pervons licensed under that particularlaw and at the same time it repeals Id law.

A Sermon in Its Behalf by Rev. Dr. Corey— Bishop Hurst's Remarks. At the Metropolitan M. E. Church yesterday morning the Rev. Dr. Corey delivered an im- pressive sermon on the value and claims of Christian education. The audience was large and the interest in the preacher's theme was evident. To all it was evident that a practical application was likely to follow the sermon, and especially so as Bishop John F. Hurst was seated on the platform. At the close of the sermon the bishop called attention to the American University, in the interest of which the sermon had been delivered. The Metro- politan Church had before contributed about $30,000, but as churches of the denomination from the Atlantic to the Pacifie were sending in their offerings in amounts large aud small, the Metropolitan people were solicited to make another free-will offering. The bishop stated the hopefulness of tho outlook. The grounds secured and paid for in tomac river, and so near the heart of Wash- ington were worth not less than $500,000, and ly some were thought to be worth even more. These are to be laid out soon by the finest Iandscape artist in this country; then the sites will be chosen for Lincoln Memorial Hall, the Asbury Hail and other great and costly buiid- ings, “Already there are in the possession of the trustees over $800,000 in asset. ‘The uni- versity was adopted by the general conference of the M. E. Church at Omaha and commended to the whole denomination. As to its ultimate success there is no longer the shadow of a doubt. It will only bea few years at most ui til the whole country will rejoice in this great American university, which, under the im- mediate control of the M. B. Church, is yet made the object of interest to all the people of all the denominations, many of whom have al- ready made liberal contribu — A Chapter of Accidents.

Probably the greatest dinner ever given in Washington will be that under the auspices of the Natioual Capital Press Club, to be held in the banquet hall of the Arlington Hotel Satur- day evening, March 11. The Press Club is not adining club, but once a year its members come together, with some of the most famous and most gifted men of the country as their ests, for a feast “that is feast.” Inasmuch it comes but once a year the dinner 1s made one of the most noteworthy events of the season, not only from the gastronomical point of view, but in features pertaining to satire, wit, spec- t@ularism and fun. Atthe coming dinner it is expected that President Cleveland and most of the members of his cabinet, as well as his new bureau officers, will be present. The oc- sort of introduction of administration to the public | through the good offices of their friends of the pres, Many of the new Senators will also be present. The number of covers is limited to 150, and therefore seventy- five members of the club will be able to attend, each accompanied by aguest. Persons fortunate enough to receive an invitation to this dinner will do well to remain a week in Washington, if necessary, in order to be present. the new shed Ancestors. Toth From an ancestral standpoint it is not sur- prising that Mr. Hoke Smith has attained the prominence of acabinet minister at the early age of thirty-seven. The Hokes—his maternal ancestry—have been distinguished_in North ‘arolina since the days of the revolution. Michael Hoke, the grandfather of Mr. Hoke Smith, went to North Carolina from York, Pa.g in 1780. He was the pioneer cotton manufac- turer in the south. ‘The old mill site is one of the interesting landmarks in the historic old county of Lincoln. One of his uncles, Michael Hoke, was a candidate for governor of North Carolina at the early age of thirty-three, sud- den death terminating his brilliant career be- fore the election. Three of his Hoke uncles were distinguished officers in the southern army. Gen Robt, F. Hoke, the survivi uncle, was several times officially complimente by Gen. Lee. His father was a typical New England schoolmaster from the granite hills of New Hampshire and was closely related to the Adamses of Massachusetts, Mr. Hoke Smith is not Puritan and cavalier, as the newspaper cor- respondents put it, but Puritan and the rugged, honest, God fearing “‘Pennsvivania Dutch,” who settied in the fertile valley of the Cataw! and have been noted as fighters, patriots an Americans since ‘the days that tried men's sonls."” North Carolina gave the brilliant young scion to i r ‘That Was the Haul Made by the Detectives —Some of Thetr Victims. | Saturday and yesterday the detectives, under thé supervision of Inspector Hollinberger, were kept busy looking after and bringing in the crooks and trying to prevent robberies as far as possible. This morning Inspector Hollinberger praised the men for their services and to them, he thought, was due the credit of making the celebration not a good one for the crooks, While many robberies were reported the number was much smaller than at any previous celebration of the kind, and the character of many of the thefts made it evident that they were committed by other than professional men. The fact that many of the persons ar- rested were intoxicated causes the police to be- lieve that the “bum” thieves who rob drunks did most of the “ ting.” There were two house jobs, but the property taken did not amount to very much. The en- tire amount of stolen articles reported up to this morning did not exceed $1,000 in value. While there were numerous robberies of intoxi- cated persons, several of the victims were caught in crowds and robbed in manner in which professional men operate, and in this way several watches and chains were secured. FIFTY-THREE CROOKS. ‘There were fifty-three alleged crooks locked up before today and they filled the cells and witness rooms of two police stations, This morning the inspector and detectives selected some of the best of the crooks from the num- ber, about twenty-five, and they were measured and photographed. Their pictures will adorn the rogues’ galery in the future and copies of them will be furnished other departments. After being photographed they were either sent out of the city or returned to the station, and those against whom cases are had will be held for trial. Some of the robberies committed by them took place on the railroad trains out of this jurisdiction, but the officers here received the ‘complaints and are endeavoring to recover the property. SOME OF THE VICTIMS. Jacob J. Kaiser, No. 236 North 3d street, Columbus, Ohio, was robbed of an open-faco gold watch Saturday evening. H. L. Haynes of No. 610 13th street was a vic- tim of thieves.

WASHINGTON MARKETS. ‘Washington markets stood the strain without aquiver. No very great preparation was made for the increased calls and the retailers showed but little disposition to take in extra stock. In many lines of the goods the prices were sub- normal. ‘This was notably the case in beef. Best beef today is quoted at Ta8e. common, 6c.; dressed hog, 910c. jade. 5 mutton, 7c. The quantity of butterine sold was enormous. It can only be meusured in thousands of pounds. In this line the pi remain as when last quoted.

Some of the Fairfax democrats do not think it fair, and so express themselves, that the Alexandria city democratic committee should make recommendations for offices in Fairfax. It is probable that Mr. Cleveland will bave ample opportunity of finding that what he calls ‘the demoralizing madness for spoils” is epidemic in this section as elsewhere. FUNERAL SERVICES. ‘The funeral services of the late Dr. Archi- bald ‘Taylor took place at his late home on King street yesterday afternoon. Dr. Taylor came to this city in ill health and has ended his days here. He served in the medical department of the United States army until the late war and then became a confederate surgeon. Since then he has lived in Richmond and Charlottesville. THE CHURCHES YESTERDAY. Several of the churches here enjoyed yester- day the ministrations of clergymen from abroad. Bishop Key of Texas preached in the evening at the M. E. Church South, Rev. J. M. Pileber of Petersburg at the Washington Street Baptist Church and Elder Francis of Virginia at the Baptist Church on Fairfax street. AWAITING IDENTIFICATION. Undertaker Demaine has at his establishment the body of a white man found drowned on Bunday morning. A jury of inquest, after hearing the statement ‘that the brain showed evidence of “‘concussion,”” have adjourned the case until further information can be obtained. ‘The body has not been identified. xorEs. Bailding permits for six dwellings and one large apartment house, all in the northwest sec- eee MONDAY. Error. ‘It-was supposed that counsel for Howard J. Schneider, sentenced to be hanged Friday, the 17th instant, for the murder of his wife, would ‘this morning appear in the Court in General ‘Term and ask for a writ of error to the United States Supreme Court, but the court adjourned without such a step being made. The appear- ance in court, however, of counsel for such a Purpose is not necessary, as the motion fora writ of error can be made by filing the neces- sary papers with the clerk of the court. While it is generally believed that such « mo- tion will be made it is as believed that the only effect of the motion will be to delay the execution fora time. The opinion of Dis- trict Attorney Birney, as stated in Tux Star a ft days ago, is that the Supreme Court has no jurisdiction in criminal cases tried in the District of Columbia, not even in the matter of granting a writ of error. It is known, too, that the district attorney will stoutly resist the delaying of the execu- tion by uit? District Supreme Court even should the expected motion for a writ of error be made. if the motion for a writ of error be ted by the United States Supreme Court it is thoug that the latter court would of course direc postponement of the execution. In the latter event the government would at once move that the writ be dismissed. It is understood that Schneider heard the announcement that the court in General Term had decided him to be not insane with spar ently the utmost indifference. His condition ntal condition is eaid to be unchanged, al- thoughiit is stated that he sleeps more and rests much better now than he has done at any other time since conviction last April. ee GEORGETOWN, TURNING WATER INTO THE CANAL. On Saturday afternoon the feeding gates of the Chesapeake and Ohio canal were opened and the refilling of the great trough slowly be- gan. Owing to the possibility that the banks might have been injured during the past _win- ter unbeknown to the managers or gatekeep- ers the water will not be turned in rapidly, as usually the case, but gradually and carefally. At the present rate it will probably take four or five days to completely fill the trough, but as traffic will not begin until March 15 no one will be inconvenienced. During the past win- ter a great many new boats have been built and at the very opening of the season will be placed in active service. A LANLORD AND TENANT ROW. On Saturday afternoon “Herring Hill” wae once more the scene of an altercation, Jordon Dickerson and George Epes, landlord and tenant, being the participants, The trouble originated over the possession of a room in house 2517 E street and was not ended until Dickerson had fired « ball at Epes, which passed through the overcoat of the assanited. The ar- rival of a policeman putan end to the fight and the assaulter one, Dickerson, was arrested. ODD FELLOWS’ THANKSGIVING SERVICES. At Ebenezer A. M. E.

In the Criminal Court this morning the trial of Wm. Sidney, alias “‘Hoppy,” tho colored cripple, charged with an assault and battery with intent to rape Mrs. Annie Fitzsimmons in Jackson Hall alley on the night of February 18 took place before Justice McComas. District Attorney Birney appeared for the government and Messrs. E. L. Gies and G. W. Kern for the prisoner. It was testified by Mrs. Fitzsimmons that the prisoner entered herroom and made an indecent proposal, and when she repelled him he as- saulted her and then ran away. Sidney insisted that he was innocent of the to rape, but admitted the assault, and said she was drunk that night. Mrs. Fitzsim- mons indignantly denied his statement. The jury was but a few moments in finding a verdict of guilty. The court imposed a sentence of two years in the penitentiary at Albany. 1 Tur Gar ‘Left me in a terribly weak condition; my health nearly wrecked.

He went through the train of Pullman cars shaking hands, and many were the congratulatiogs and warm wishes for the future. As he was about to depart one of hie friends said to him: “It will be ‘good-bye, Mr. President,’ four years hence.”” MONDAY MIGHT, Grand Promenade Concert at $ o'clock, with Dancing After 10.

But there is another aspect to the question—a political one. New York shall no longer dominate in the question of a presidential candidate. The Totation of candidates in that state for the first office in the land is becoming decidedly monotonous. A new political condition has sprung me There is a democratic stronghold in a portion of the country that has heretofore been republican. Illinois and Wisconsin are democratic for good. So is Indiana. The cen- ter of political power of the democratic party has been transferred from the empire state to this district. and it is this district which in the future will dictate terms to the democracy of the country. When, therefore, we say that the presidential candidate for 1896 shall come from this district, we mean what we say. We will give New York the vice presidency, and, just for the fun of the thing, We will reverso the ordinary course of conspicu- ous historical political events. Mark my prophecy, made this first day of the new ad- ministration, Mr. Stevenson will be the head of the demceratic ticket in 1896 and a New Yorker will be in the second place.” Inaugural Addresses, The picturesque and thoroughly republican Practice of taking the oath of office and deliv- ering the inaugural address in the open air in the | * ethe presence of the people was begun by Zachary ‘aylor in 1849. Previously the inaugural ad- dress had been rend in the Senate chamber. Jefferson was the first President to be inaugurated in Washington city. Wasb- ington read his inaugural in New York; Adams in Philadelphia, Washington's first in- angural was 1,300 words in length, his second only 134. John Adams’ inaugural wi words long; Jefferson's, 2,100; Madiao on both occasions; Monroe’ J. Q. Adams’, 2,900; second, each 1.100; Van Buren employed 3,800 words, and Wi. Henry Harrison, the most voluminous of them all, 8,500. John Tyler, in entering upon the duties of President, after the death of Harrison, addressed his inaugural of 1,600 words to the public and published it in the newspapers, Congress not being in session. Polk bn nbond nearly 5,000 words; Taylor, 1,000; Fillmore simply announced the death of Taylor in a message of 260 words sent into each house of Congress, and delivered no inaugural. Franklin Pierce's address was 3,300 MR. words. Lincoln's on his first election 3,500, on DIGBY his second only 580.
