There is likely to be trouble in the Grace Chapel, colored Methodist church at Burrville, near Benning, because James Diggs, a member ofthe flock, had the preacher, Rev. James Washington, and Mcrtha Washington, his wife, arrested on a charge of assault. ‘The gardeners i that section are. o in lanting early peas just now, and there was a Uispate sbout ‘o tome of land on which it was claimed ashes been thrown.

Judge Miller was ap to this morning by the parties to the affair, and he made the her and his wife contribute @10 to the oo Mr. Lewis Kray Did Right. ‘Thismorning about the time that Judge Miller resumed the hearing of the case of Policeman Hayhurst, charzed with clubbing Mr. Samuel Gregory in the first precinct station, Judge Kimball was hearing a case of a citizen who was arrested at the same police station yester- day and charged with disorderly conduct. ‘The citizen was Mr. Lewis Kray.

Friday and Saturday evenings and | Saturday matinee Bronson Howard’s comedy CITIZEN TRAIN’S LECTURE. He Talked for Over Two Hours at Metserott - Music Hall, Last evening there stepped upon the stage of Metzerott Hall « tall, white-haired man of mili- tary bearing. Removing his overcoat and gloves s dark blue swallow-tail suit was dis- closed, adorned with brass buttons. A large boutonniere of red roses and s number of medals were fastened upon his breast. His face was ruddy, heavy white mustache covered his strong mouth and his hairwas brushed care- lessly back from a sloping forehead. ibis man was Citizen George Francis Train, milingly acknowledgin, a] wi | greeted Biss be deposited batlle ef Rowe Papers upon a chair and insisted upon bis andi- tors gathering closely about the stage before he began his remarks. Then followed one of the | mont remarkable and original discourses ever listened to by a Washington As Citizen Train explained, it was not a lecture: it was. as he desired it should be, # quiet conver- sation between friends. His remarks were emphasized by slapping his right knee, jump- ing into the air and sna) fingers with ping remarkable force. He illustrated about every- thing he said through the medium of « large blackboard, upon which he drew innumeral figures and circles. WIGH TIME THAT HE GOT HERE. He announced that he was born a man, and that Washington was the first town he ever got into that he did not have half of the people to meet him. Not even the reporters had met him, and he therefore thought that it was high time that he got here. Holding up « copy of yesterday’s Star he remarked that the town appeared to be broke, Judging from the number of delinquent tax- rs. “I have been around the world five times,” hecried: “Ihave to go to see that it in still there. But the world never got around me. The first time I went. around it took me two years todo it. Years after that I went around it in eighty days, and Jules Verne made a fic- tion of what I had done in fact. Laid Nellie Bly on the suelf by eight days and Risland ‘Ungallant. but bad todo it. Want to goaround in thirty-six days and save the world’s fair from the biggest financial Panama the world ever saw. They don’t see it, and I am going to let them go down.” He said that he never voted, never belon toa political party and neyer made a political speech, yet he knew more than the rest of the world put together. Drawing a pyramid on the blackboard he illustrated the world. Sev- eral circles at the bottom were common hu- manity. Half way up was a mark to designate Emerson. “Huxley, John Stewart Mill, all that crowd are down here.” Dashing off a halo about the top he exclaimed: “I was born there! ‘The only man nobody owns.” ‘Speaking of George Washington, he said that his face was pitted with smalipox, that he wore goggles. and yet his portraits showed a smooth-faced man, innocent of glasses. TOO SMALL FOR THE CAPITAL. “Washington is too small for the capital of this country. It will have to be moved else- where,” he remarked, but he did not suggest where. “There are too many Washingtons, he continued. ‘There should be but one.” ‘Thus Citizen Train talked for an hour and a ter, when he pulled out his watch and beg Your pardon, the lecture is over.” ‘ But hia hearers would not consent to its ending so soon, and he went on for an hour longer. In- viting his audience to ask him questions, many were put to him, covering every subject pos- sible. In answering them he said among other things: “Marriage is not a failure among the poor, but it is among the rich.” “I defy. dis- ease, death and everyibing else.” “I would not tax the liquor dealer, but I would give him enough whisky to kill’ him.” “If all the de- positors ir banks should ask for their money Tevolution would result.” “It is really won- derful what a man can do chewing tobacco when he gives his whole mind to it.” At the close of his lecture he announced that he felt compelled to remain longer in Washing- ton, because he believed that his presence here for s time at least was absolutely necessary. He was encouraged to do so by several in the au ence. who offered to obtain a hall for him if he would remain and again lecture. ‘What do you think of me?" he asked as the audience Prepared to leave. Did you ever before see such an intellect?” Cries of “You are great,” ““Im- mense,” “Without an equal,” and similar re- marks followed his inquiries, and the face of Citizen Train was wreathed with smiles. Citizen Train will lecture again tomorrow night at Metzerott Hall. AMUSEMENTS.

C., WEDNESDA ‘THE MYSTERIOUS COUPLE ‘Was the Description Given by s Witness of Arnold and Mrs. Kramer. THE HEARING IN THE ARNOLD-KRAMER MUR- DER TRIAL TODAY — THE GOVERNMENT CLOSES ITS TESTIMONY — 4S TO KRAMER'S CHARACTER. The court room was well filled this morning when the trial of Theodore G. Arnold for the murder of John Kramer was resumed. The defense recalled Detective Trammell, who testified that when he reached the parties he heard no such remark by Arnold as “I've done with him.” Keese did not have hold of Arnold's arm when witness grabbed him. ‘The government recalled Mrs. Anna Sweeny, and she identified an old account book, in which she pointed out the account with Arnold. The defense objected, but the court decided toadmit the entry. Mr. Davia then asked that the case be ad- journed till tomorrow to_give an opportunity to disprove this entry. He could not meet it today, but could tomorrow. He noted an ex- ception to the ralin; court added that it was admitted because the government had stated that they did not obtain possession of the book till yesterday, Mra. 81 testified, that abe found the and read entry showing that Arnoldend Mrs. Kramer came toher house April 13 and remained there five weeks. ‘On cross-examination witness said that she moved to Ist street northwest from Ist street between B and C streets northeast, but she did not remember the number. THE WITXESS FROM COLORADO, Mr. Davis asked to whom she paid the rent and the government objected. Mr. Davis said he expected to disprove this book. The court said that he could ask who the landlord was. Witness said she did not remember the land- lord. She came here from Denver, Col. Wit- ness gave the names of anumber of people who roomed with her at 108 Ist street north- west—Snell and wife, Johnson and wife and others, including a mysterious couple, one of them known as ‘Miss Laura and the other.” She was at 108 from March 1 to June 1 and then moved to Arthur place. Witness was not allowed to give the namesof the roomers in Arthur place and exception was taken. She was allowed to give the names of roomers at the ist street northwest house, among them Congressman Lynch of Michigan. After examining the entry under a magnify- ing glass Mr. Davis asked if the entry ‘ms terious couple” had not been made on April 16. Witness said she made the entry when the money was paid and she believed it was on the She denied that she wrote the ‘mysterious couple” entry since she was on the stand yes- terday. The book she understood, and that was enough; she nover expected that she had a mur- derer in her house and that she would have to testify. ‘The jurors examined the ‘‘mysterious couple” entry under a glass. ‘Mr. Davis said he desired to investigate this witness as to her places of residence prior to her residence on Ist street northwest for the purpose of discrediting the witness, but he un- derstood he would not be allowed to do 80. ‘The court overruled the offer and it was put in writing. NO WEAPONS ON THE BODY. Wm. F. McElfresh waz called by the govern- ment and testified that he was the keeper of the morgue at the time of the shooting and no weapon was on the body when Kramer was brought there. John P. O'Neal testified as to Kramer's repu- tation for peace and good order being goo: On cross-examination witness eaid he bad | known Kramer perhaps 23; months and was his counsel as to the divorce matter; had a num- ber of interviews with him and appeared for him in the Police Court on June 15. ‘The defendant moved to rule out the testi- and was overruled. jathan Horn was also called as to the reputa- tion, but had not heard it discussed. Mr. Birney said before closing the rebuttal that finding that witnesses as to Hill's reputa- tion would go no farther than the testimony of Gray he would not offer them and asked that the testimony as to Hill's reputation be stricken out. Rev. E. D. Bailey testified to marrying Kramer and Laura Bowman, SepteSmber, 1891. This closed the government's testimony. A DETECTIVE’S STORY. After the report clored in yesterday's Stan | Charies H. Shipley, an independent detectivi of Baltimore, testified that he knew Kramer. Met him there in March, 1892, when Kramer | hired him to watch Susan Bowman on her ar- | rival there that he might discover the where- | abouts of his wife, who be believed was living with a business man in Baltimore. He said he did not care much for his wife, but that be would make the man pay handsomely for living with her. He later received a number of com- munications from Kramer. ‘The man came to Baltimore in May, and sid that Theodore G. Arnold was a man in Washington who was try- ing to get a divorce for Mrs. Kramer, and said that if he did he would kill him, and showed | & pistol to witness, saying that he would kill | him with it; a black-bandied one.

William young man who stated that be was the superintendent of Williams’ De- tective Agency of this city, was culled as the first witness for the government in rebuttal, and testified that he was engaged by Kramer to | locate his wife and find out the name of the | man who had gone off with her. He stated that he was positive that Kramer did not go about | armed. Kramer showed him where the woman was, “So, after hiring you to find his wife,” re- marked Mr. Davis, “Kramer found her for you, "t he?" “He told me where she was,” relunctantly answered the detective. Rose denied that he offered his services both to the defense and to the government, but ad- mitted that he did offer to serve the defense, and that his offer was declined. Robert M. Collins, a reporter of the Washing- ton Post, testified that he had known Hill, who testified for the defense,and that his reputation for truth and veracity was bad. He said that Hill had told him that he had been intimate with Mrs, Kramer, and said once that be was keeping her, or words to that effect. ithout concluding the government's case in rebuttal the court at 4:15 adjourned until this morning. ———— Violated the Building Regulations. Assistant Building Inspector King appeared in Judge Kimball's court this morning as the Prosecuting witness in the case of Mr. N. A. Poole, sgainst whom there was a charge of vio- lating the building regulations. Mr. Poole’s place of business is on Lonisians avenue be- tween 9th and 10th streets, where the merchants are permitted to use a large part of the sde- walk for business purposes.

At the opening and closing of the departments the street cars are daily overcrowded and the overtaxed | horses are compelled to hasten as if for life. When a poor animal falls down, as soon as it is up it is expected to go as rapidly as ite trembling limbs can move. No heed seems to be paid to the nerve condition in which a horse may be that has just fallen | on the hard street. Indeed many persons ap- ignorant of the fact that any creatures except of the human kind possess nerves or suffer acute pai Not only are the horses urged to. a far too rapid pece during the busy hours, but at all hours, and whether the cars are baif empty or full the cruel speed is exacted. It is presumed that each driver is equally under compulsion; if a car does not make a cer- tain rate of progress the driver may lose his place and himself and his family suffer. The Tesponsibility rests upon the company. It should be piaced there; if the officials of the street car companies would but pause to think of the suffering which the rapid trot and hur- ried starting inflict surely they would order | that the horses be driven ataslower gait.

Exhibition of a New Style of Motor for Street Cars. ‘From the New York Times. ‘The Railway Ammonia Motor Company, which has offices in the Drexel building, gave an ex- hibition of its system of running street cars Yesterday afternoon. The motor this company uses was invented by P. J. McMahon, formerly a chief engineer in the navy. The cars run by ammonia motors look very much like ordinary street cars except that they stand somewhat higher from the ground, being reached by two steps and have what looks like along box attached to the bottom, running from platform to platform. The wheels on each side are connected bya bar, like those on a steam locomotive, and by another bar with a piston, which is hidden from view. At each end of the car is sort of “cowcatcher” ment, which has a little platform » few | inches wide around its edgeand comes to = point in front. The plant for charging the care is simple. ‘The company has a temporary one at 136 West 28th street, where yesterday's trials started. ‘The ammonia is first evaporated. and after the | water has thus been removed from it, it is passed through a coil of pipes, over which cold water is sprayed. It is thus reduced to a li galled anhydrous ammonia, which is collected in a big tank, from which it is drawn into a ler tank on the car. This car tank is sur- rounded with an outer box containing hot has not vet been definitely fixed, but it is ex- | Sine ‘To generate the power the anhydrous ammo- nia is heated to about 80°, and as the liquid will boil in the air at $8i¢° below zero the heat develops a pressure of 150 pounds. This Pressure works a piston in the same way as steam. Enough emmonia can be stored on an ordi- nary car to run it for seventy miles over an average road. When one charge is exhausted another can be put in very quickly. Mr. McMahon reckoned the cost of running a car with his system at 1 cent a mile. ‘The sample car was taken out and run upand down a couple of blocks of the unused tracks on 28th street from 6th avenue west, in yes- terday’s experiments, isd “How quickly can you stop it?” asked one of the visitors. “Oh, when it's going eight miles an hour I ‘oan stop it in about nine feet.”” answered Henry am, the secretary of the company, who was doing the honors. “Why, I ran it up and down in the shed here, where therearetwenty-one feet of track, several times the other day, and erer used the brake once. Just reversed. See eta Mr. Graham started the car. Two seconds more and he was wildiy turning on the machin- ery that reversed the motor. ‘There was a loud crash and the ‘“‘coweatcher” poked iteelf through the closed door out on to the sidewalk. ‘The power was shut of just in time to save the whole front of the building from going. jalf an hour later the car tried to treat truck on 7th avenue in the same way. ‘Two cars similar to the one used yesterday now being experimented with in Manches- , England, and are reported as working suc- cesefully, A car will probably be tested on one of the city lines soon. To avoid all possibility of passengers being annoyed by the pungent and disagreeable odor that was noticeable ves- terday the company is having sixteen-foot car built, which will merely carry the motor. ++ A New Ship Cenal Needed. Francis Wayland Glen in Seaboard. In your last issue when discussing ‘that vexed Canadian question” you say: “To abolish the bonding system, it is said, will bes loss of 50,000,000 to Canada and an equal amount lost tous. Wedoubtit.” I agree with you en- tirely: it would not be any loss to the people of this country. All the American traffic that now goes north of the St. Lawrence and the lakes would simply go to and from tidewater south of the St. Lawrence and the lakes. The products of the west, which the Grand Trunk railway and Canadian Pacific railway haul from Chicago. Duluth, Detroit, San Francisco and Grand Haven to Montreal and from there dis- tribute throughout the New England states, would go south of the lakes and be dis- tributed from Albany and New York. The same is true of the merchandise which the two Canadian roads gather up in New Eng- land and haul to Montreal, and thence to Detroit, Chicago, Grand Haven, Duluth and San Francisco. traffic would go from New England vis New York and Albany to ite destination over our own lines. The Canada Southern railway, owned by the Vanderbilt party, would suffer some loss, but it would be made gooi by the gain to the Lake Shore, owned by the eame parties. We should trans- fer a large trade from Montreal to Albany and New York. Aship canal from Albany to Os- ‘wego and one from Albany to the St. Lawrence river, opposite Cotean landing, where the Ottawa enters the Si, Lawrence, and a ship canal around Niagara falls, combined with the abrogation of the bonding system, would trans- fer more than one-half of the shipping of Mon- treal to Boston and New York. The great lines of steamers could not live on the trade of Mon- treal if the bonding system were abolished and the canals built. We shall require them, even with continental union consummated, in the near future, even if the St. Lawrence is improved. Why not build them now, or atleast begin them now? The population west of the city of Detroit and Sault Ste. Marie will increase at a far greater rate than the average of the nation. and with new and constantly improved machinery the i crease in production will far exceed the in- crease in population, and therefore the surplus for shipment east will simply be enormous as compared to our present traffic, which is already the wonder of the world. The canals I entioned will be an absolute necessity, within twenty years, and every day tlfe state of New York delays their construction she cids in building uv M of Canada. With continental union we shall ni these canals,and others also. Imagine 20,000,000 acres gf wheat in Manitoba and the north- western territories (where Prof. McCoun, in his ‘Manitoba and the Great Northwest,” says there are 200,000,000 acres npon which wheat of best quality can be successfully grown), yield- i twelve and a half bushels per acre, or 250,000,000 bushels to add to growing trathc of our present territ ‘Deduct 50,000,000 for home consumption and seed and we have 200,000,000 bushels for shipment east or 6,000,000 tons. We need the waterways to keep in check our great railway combinations. Ship canals will do more to keep down freight charges than legislation through interstate commerce com- missions. Once built they cannot well be re- pealed—they come to stay. Sayings of Children. From the New York Tribune.

Six Priests at His Funeral and Mourners ‘Wall for Ten Hours. ‘From the San Francisco Examiner. ; Chow Fook, one of the hardest characters of Chinatown. died the other day and yesterday he was buried. He kept in Baker alley one of the worst of Chinatown’s houses of ill-fame. Chow Fook wasa member of the Hop Wah Society, and was rich, old, ugly and a villain to the core. His death has left » great void in highbinder circles. “Chow Fook baily lich, Daily blave,” ex- plained the round-face keeper of the little res- taurant on Dupont street, near the alley, when questioned yesterday. He was a professed Taoist, and, being rich, he was given costly funeral. and being s highbinder of standing his obsequies we: largely attended. Very few of the bh neral been so imposing as Chow Fook’s. From early morning yesterday until the fu- neral cortege was formed, about 2 o'clock, six Taoist priests were present in the little room where the dead highbin jer layin state. Charms and images were strewn around the apartment and richly colored adorned the walle. The black-robed churchmen kept up a continu- ous appeal to the innumerable gods of their wild and faneifal religion, now ringing bells to Propitiate the evil deities, then reciting in con- cert of the “Tao Teh King,” and anon siving praise to Yu Wang Shang ii (god. the brazen perfect king) with the loud clangor cymbals, They have strange way of accounting for the name of the founder of their religion, Taoist priests. “The Old Boy” they call him. He was supernaturally conceived, they say, and his mother bore him for eighty-one years be- fore he was born. When his birth came his hair was hoary with age, and he was thence- forth called, because of his aged appearance, Luao-teze, or ‘The Old Boy.” All through Saturday night the cooks at the bagnio of the deceased Chow Fook were busily engaged at preparing the funeral meata. A hog was roested whole, and dish after dish esteemed by the celestial palate was carefully cooked for the morrow. After the coffin lid bad been screwed down yesterda) Other delicacies were thrown into the al “Nebba eat pawk or anyt'ing apta cousin die. said one of the Tuoists, And it is so. The “funeral baked meats” are thrown away in ac- cordance with ap ancient superstition. ‘The dead Chow Fook was borne in ahearse to the Chinese cemetery. The cortege was led by a hackload of celestials whoze ofiice it was to scatter sacred paper along the way. “Why do they scatter paper?” repeated an educated Chinese, when questioned Inst even- ing at the Chinese Church on Stockton street near Clay. “Well, because of an old notion that if the bits of paper were not thrown along | the route the demons would make the corpse so heavy that it could not be borne to the grave. Chow Fook, despite the weight of his must have been vers, very light yesterday, if the Taoist rule heid good, for paper galore lit- tered the entire way from Baker alley to the vault in which the form was laid. Following the men who appeased the demons came the hearse and then the mourners. ‘These mourners were clad in garments of white, that being the mourning color among the Chinese. The priests followed the mourners, clangin; their cymbals and reciting their liturgies, an: after them came a long line of carriages filled with ‘“flens.” The body will be sent to China by the next steamer which sails for Hong Kong. 3 Toward dusk the priests returned and the mourning commenced in earnest. Six mourn- ers, completely enveloped in white, took uj their station on the floor of the room in whic! the corpse had been during the forenoon. ent huddled close together and set up alow moaning, accompanying their droning cries by movements of their bodies—now swaying inone direction and then in another. The pricste sat upon a raised platform. They were robed in black and bad curious headdresses, some having peacock feathers in their hair. ‘These priests made a most unearthly din, chanting bits of ‘Taoist invocations and making discordant sounds on Chinese cymbals and with shrill- voiced bella, Gathered around were as man; celestials of both sexes as the room would hol while the adjacent apartments were uncomfort- ably thronged. Incense of sandal wood loaded the air and a ghastly light was thrown upon the scene by candies burning in colored lanterns. It would be bard to conceive anything more weird. The uncanny ceremonies continued until 4 o'clock this morning. ——_—_+e-____ A Sound That Appeals to All but the Deaf. From the Chicago Daily Inter-Ocean. He had tried to work the Palmer. He had registered as J. C. Moberly of New York, and the only thing he had about him that was out of the ordinary was an extreme deafness. Clerk Cunningham had made himself hoarse in trying to convince the man thathe was not acceptable to the house, and nearly everybody about the office had done the same thing. The man put on an indignant air and refused to hear or understand what it was the intention of the people to crowd into his head. Finally Cuaningham gave up his place at the desk to the gentleman who writes figures upside | down on the register in turn with himself, and | then, putting on an overcoat and hat and an air of nonchalance, he wandered to the rotunda, where Mr. Moberly was trying to read a note from the manager and still acting very deaf. Cunningham gradually worked himself around until he got within ten fect of the very deaf man from New York, and then he took some silver money from his pocket. While counting the money and fingering it, Cunuingham acci- dentally (#) dropped s stiver dollar: With s quick start the deaf Mr. Moberly turned as if to deliver a pivot blow, and looked im the direction from which the sound came. No more was necessary. Mr. Moberly, deaf- ness and all, was ejected. “I heard about that once,” said Cunning- ham. “Somebody told me that if aman was feigning deafness » coin dropped near him would throw him of his guard, and he wouid, without thinking, turn quickly, Ithought that I would try it on this fakir, and you see that it ill work like a charm.” Ss Hope the Queen Was Pleased. From the Brandon Bucksaw. A London newspaper relates that a few days ago Queen Victornia was greatly pleased with a Piece of music performed by the band playing in public at Osborne, and sent one of her at- tendants to learn the name of the piece.
