Parker and wife of the Salvation Army came over from Baltimore upon a visit of inspection and were fittingly entertained by the members of the army stationed in this city. They participated with the local soldiers in out- door meetings at 7th street and Pennsyl- venia avenue and at 10th and D streets, and ‘then marched with the army to the bar- racks, where a very successful meeting was held, an ice cream festival for the benefit of the working fund following. ‘The officers of the army stationed here re- ported to Capt. Parker that during the past six months seventy-five converts had been made in the course of the work, and come of them, after having served a probationary term, have been enlisted in the ranks as soldiers. The street mission work has been kept up nightly, and on certain nights the round of the saloons ts made and services held at the doors and papers sold to aid the work. About 3125 is collected and dis- pensed each month in the work of the mis- sion. The workers have certain days set apart for visiting the jail, where services are held. and two converts have been so far isoners. MiCiwas announced that on the 2th instant @ two-weeks’ camp meeting would be held at Glyndon, ‘about sixteen miles be- yond Baltimore, under the auspices of the army, and that the attendance of all the prominent members of the army in this country was expected. ene ee MOUNT VERNON PARK. Reports of Objecti le Scenes on the Benches at Night. ‘The complaints of misconduct in Mount Vernon Park, at the intersection of 7th street and Massachusetts and New York avenues, have become so serious that the authorities are considering the expediency of removing all the benches in that park, ‘and in this way destroying its advantages as a place of rendezvous. The park is en- tirely under the jurisdiction of Col. J. M. ‘Wilson of the army corps of engineers, who has charge of all government reservations in this city. He believes that the parks are intended for the use of the public and he acts accordingly. His object is to make them attractive and to give the public the full benefit of their existence. But it ap- pears that the privileges are abused in the ‘case of Mount Vernon Park and that ft is the scene every clear night of rowdyism and scandalous conduct. Citizens residing in the vicinity, who wish their identity con- cealed, have suggested to Col. Wilson as a Yemedy for the nightly gatherings in the park that the benches be removed. He haturally hesitates at such radical action for the reason that while evil disposed per- Sons may take advantage of them at night, they are of real benefit to good citizens who may want to use them at other times. The reports of scandalous conduct in this a are now being investigated, and if hey are substantiated steps will ‘be taken to apply a remedy. All the parks are policed at night by special watchmen to the full extent of the available Mons. Col, Wilson is hampered bly by the eight-hour law. which prohibits ‘the employment of watchmen in the parks for more than eight hours a day, and a limited @ppropriation prevents the employment of more men. —_———_. Mr. Bateman is Sued. A suit was instituted yesterday by Lewis Clephane against Arthur E. Bateman, claiming damages to the amount of $12,860. Mr. Clephane alleges that about March 3, 3888, he delivered into Mr. Bateman’ hands for safe keeping ten unmatured bonds of the Atlantic and Danville Railroad Company, each for the sum of $1,000, and having at- tached thereto interest coupons for $30 each. One coupon on each bond was payable on April 1, 1888, amd one every six months thereafter. ‘The defendant was to keep the bonds un- til certain claims as to the piece of road ex- tending westerly from Hodges’ Ferry, Nor- folk county, Va. were decided, and then ‘was to deliver them up to Clephane. But it is further alleged that Mr. Clephane never received them. although he has re- Peatedly demanded them. The alleged loss ‘occurred about August 4. 1890. The suit ts for the principal and coupons, with interest on each of the coupons from the date of its maturity. —————- Ford's Theater Survivors. An association of the injured sur- vivors of the Ford's Theater disas- ter was organized last evening. Thirty clerks were present in person or by proxy. Capt. Geo. J. Drew was the chairman, and Homer-B. Harlan was the secretary. Resolutions introduced by Mr. ‘Thomas Jones were adopted disclaiming all interest In any of the proposed bilis for the relief of the survivors, and expressing Fellance upon Congressional action in se- curing whatever may be just. It was stat- ed that the relief committee would co-op- erate with the association. — w. G. R. R.

Meeting of the Citizens’ Association Last Night Schedule of Streets Considerea to Need Improvement During Next Year—The $10,000,000 Loan. The regular monthly meeting of the East Washington Citizens’ Association was held at Baum's Hall, 4th and East Capitol streets, last evening. Owing to the ab- | Sence from town of the great majority of the members of the association the meet- ing was not largely attended, those present being J. W. Babson, A. J. Curtis, Isaac P. Noyes, M. I. Weller, M. W. Wines, O. B. Hallam, Tracy Jeffords, F. A. Lehmann, F. F. Repetti, F. G. Aukam and Dr. David- son. The minutes of the preceding meeting were read and approved and under the call of committees for reports President Bab- son stated that the executive committee had no special report to make, but added that it afforded him great pleasure to state that the various committees in charge of the Capitol centennial celebration were doing great and splendid work, and enough was already accomplished to insure a most magnificent celebration. Mr. Marshall W. Wines said the com- mittee on railroads would soon be called together to consider the threatened danger of the trolley system and the subject given that consideration which the gravity of the question demanded. Improvement of Streets. Chairman F. A. Lehmann, chairman of the committee on streets, avenues and al- leys, submitted the following report: The committee on streets, avenues and alleys presents its report earlier than usual this year because the extra session of Con- gress makes it necessary for the Commis- stoners of the District to prepare their estimates before the usual time. The num- ber of streets recommended for improve- ment in both the northeast and southeast sections has been largely increased, not only because we believe that these streets should be improved as speedily as possible, but because the increased revenues of the District arising from increased taxation will enable the Commissioners to improve a larger number next year than they have Deen able to do in any one year in the past. ‘While the number of streets recommended for improvement in the southeast is larger than that in the northeast the estimated cost in the northeast section is about $10,000 more than in the southeast, as a larger amount of asphalt paving is recom- mended for the northeast than the south- east. In the northeast section F and M streets and Florida avenue are especially recom- mended for improvement in order to re- Meve the amount of travel on H_ street, which fs greater in proportion than upon Pennsylvania avenue. In the southeast there is more unim- proved ground than in all the other sec- Yons of the city, and we therefore ask that those streets lying east and south- east of Lincoln Park may be opened up so that this ground be placed upon the market. Taxes have been paid upon all of this ground as city lot» for about one hundred years, and the opening up of these streets will be productive of good to both owners and the public.

Mr. Weller of the committee on removal of ashes, stated the committee had called on the District Commissioners and re- quested them to insest in the annual esti- mates an estimate for such, the collec- tion of ashes, but fearing that the Com- missioners would not have time to do that, the committee had asked that Con- gress be requested to tax the citizens of the District for the collection of ashes, the District government to make the col- lections, $1 a year for 8-room houses, and larger houses on that ratio. While the committee had not heen informed officially of the intention of the Commissioners, yet the committee had concluded because of their very pleasant reception by the Com- missioners that the recommendations of the committee would be adopted. At Present « careful estimate made it Appear that the householders of the District paid at least $ a year for the collection and carting away of ashes. The committee had also recommended to the Commissioners that public dumping grounds be authorized, and in that way many nuisances would be obviated and much waste Jand reclaimed. President Babson and Mr. Wines warmly advocated the recommendations sf the committee, and on the motion of the latter the report was unanimously adopted. Public Parks Wanted. ‘Mr. M. I. Weller submitted the following resolution: Whereas, that portion of the southeast- ern section, known as the Navy Yard, is now totally unprovided with the breathing ces known as public parks, notwith- standing the fact that it is the oldest set- tled and most closely inhabited district of East Washington; and whereas Reservations 15"and 16, generally known as the old Eastern Market Square, have beeen since the removal of the market nearly thirty years ago, the dumping ground for all kinds of refuse, And, whereas, all other reservations in the city under the fostering care of the United States Engineer Corps, in charge of the public buildings and grounds, have been beautified in every particular; be it Resolved by the East Washington Citi- zens" Association in regular monthly meet- ing assembled, that we earnestly request of Col. J. M. Wilson, now in charge of this department, that he shall cause reserva- tions Nos.'15 and 16 to be improved in a similar manner. ‘Mr. Weller asked for the fiate con- sideration of the resolution, and the reso- lution being considered, it was adopted. ‘The Proposed $10,000,000 Lo: Mr. O. B. Hallam stated that he begged leave to introduce the following resolution at the request of Gen. Wm. Birney: “Resolved, that this association is op- posed to adding $10,000,000 to the funded in- debtedness of the District, and that a spe- cial committee of three be appointed by the | president to oppose the $10,00),00) District loan proposition before the District Com- missioners and the committees of Congress On the motion of Mr. Weller the resolu- tion w si Meferred to the executive commit- ee, and the ation thereuj - Journed. ee — Record of Deaths.

Popular Interest Displayed im the U Street Road. Every one at all familiar with modern rapid transit methods for street railroads is aware of the specious character of the claim made by the trolley advocates that their system is the only electrical device that is a commercial success. The storage battery and the underground system, they say, are mere theories and lack entirely the practical features which breed money, and that, of course, is what the managers of raflroads are after. They are not run- ning railroads for fun or glory and they have never made any pretense of doing so They do not pose as pub- Me benefactors except before cominit- tees of Congress and in newspaper inter- views. But when they get down to real business it is money that the average strect railroad corporation is after, and the inter- ests of the dear public is a sounding phrase which they have fallen Into the habit of using, but which does not mean anything. The Underground System. Appreciating as the people in this city do very fully the position of railroad corporations, it is not surprising that the outlook of the U street line, where the underground system is in opera- tion, is a matter of considerable in- terest. This popular attention to a single road is not based on the ground that, in its suctess, is involved the only hope Of e cape from the seizure by the trolley monop- oly of the streets of the city, but principally because this road affords a'practical object lesson of the falsity of the claim of the trol- ley people that their system is the only practical electrical device for the propul- sion of street cars. Fortunately there are other methods of rapid transit in addition to the underground system. But this system is so well dapted for this city that the people would be glad to see that it was recognized as a success by railroad men generally. ‘The mere fact that it has been in successful operation for six months and more, js in itself a flat contra- diction to the positive statements of al- leged experts who have declared that un glectric underground wire would not work. The same claim would be made in regard to the cable were it not for the fact that cable roads are in actual operation. Give It a Fate Trial. If the underground system was given a fair trial, not by one company, but by sev- eral, it would probably now be in the posi- tion of the cable, beyond the reach of criti- cism. which is always directed against everything that is looked upon as experi- mental. There is one thing about the un- derground road in this city, and that is, a large number of practical men who did not have any faith the practical character of this system now admit that It is a suc- cess. Of course the trolley people, when they come before the committees of Con- gress, are going to call attention to the length of this road and the fact that it is Practically a straight line, and then they will say with a sneer that the system would never work on a line full of grades of different percentages and with numerous curves. If their judgment ts accepted, why then the matter is disposed of right there, and further tests: of the underground em would be useless. But what is to prevent the system from doing good work under harder, perhaps adverse, conditions, as com- pared with those which exist on the present line? The trolley experts will no doubt answer with many words of unfamiliar sound and high scientific rank. After they get through It will amount to nothing more than thelr opinion, and that has been shown to be wrong in so many instances in the t that it Is really of no value at all. e fact that the cars are run on the un- derground system at all negatives the opin- ions of these experts, for they claimed that the moisture in the conduit would absorb the current, Yet this road has been run- ning through the snow and the rain of last winter and none of the calamities that these wiseacres have predicted came to pass. Forced by Trolley Influence. Perhaps scientific experts are wrong; at any rate it would seem the part of wis- dom before this city, on any city, throws Atself into the arms of the trolley monop- oly that the Inventive gentus of, the age be given a chance to perfect, or at least to try the inventions which have been so num- erous in response to the imperative demand from all parts of the world for a more rapid system of street car locomotion than horses furnish. Everything in the way of im- roved motors have been forced to the wall By ‘the trolley’ influence, which, with its hoards of easily earned gold, is actually en- in a contest to throttle invention and to prevent the introduction of anything that will interfere with the enormous gains which the cheapest form of street car motor yields. Not Local Influences. Whatever the influence may be that favors the trolley, it is certainly not to any extent a local influenfe. Of course there are men whose personal interests point to the trolley, but the great bulk of the peo- ple are opposed to it. They don't want to see the streets of the city marred by the unsightly wires and poles, and. further, they are opposed to putting their lives and those of their families In jeopardy by daily possible contact with the wires. They recog- nize in the trolley a menace not only to the lives of loved ones,but to value of property, which would rapidly depreciate, especially along the streets where the troiley was in use. It 1s objectionable along the thronged business streets, and it is virtually de- structive of residence streets In_ fact, there fs no argument that can be advanced in favor of this modern municipal outrage, except the one which emanates from fat dividends and inflated stocks and bonds. CASES OF ASSAULT. Several Persons Punished Who Let ‘Their Angry Passions Rise. Daisy Waters, a colored girl, was given a hearing in Judge Mills’ court today on a charge of assaulting another colored girl named Annie Anderson. The affair hap- pened tn South Washington. Daisy told Judge Mills that she had gone to Annie's house, on 41-2 street, for her friend sev- eral times and the last time she went the fight took place. Annie, she said, had a brick and she (Daisy) had a penknife. Daisy was given sixty days. Rachael Colman, who is also called Rachael Blair, was tried on a charge of assault on Rebecca Haywood. Several witnesses were examined In the case and the woman with two names was acquitted. Alexander Carter and Emanuel Hamilton were tried for an assault on Frederick Stewart. Lawyer Hewlett defended them and after the examination of three wit- nesses a fine of $ was imposed on each of the defendants. Lizzie Jackson falled to appear and anéwer to a charge of assault on Maria Vincent and her collateral was forfeited. Louisa Glascoe’s personal bonds were taken to keep the peace toward Sarah Jenkins. Morris H. Wolff and Meyer Rosenberg, rival merchants on Ilth street southeast, appealed to the court to settle their differ- ences. Each charged the other with threats and each had counsel to look after his in- terests. ‘The court dismissed the charge against Rosenberg, and required Wolff to give his personal bonds. William Riordan and William Jenkins were charged with affray. The former ap- ed for trial and was‘fined $, and Jen. ‘ins forfeited his collateral. It was stated in the proof that a crowd of at least 500 persons gathered about the place during the fight, and in such a case the judge thought % was not enough collateral, An attach- ment was issued for Jenkins. William Milstead paid a fine of $5 for assaulting Charles Kenny, and Frank Bell paid $ for assaulting John Schmidt. Haywood Williams, a young negro from Pittsburg, was in the dock for stealing some cigars, His counsel plead guilty, and @ fine of $ or fifteen days was imposed. ‘The fine was paid. - ans <t ‘Transfers of Real Estate.

The hall of the Turners’ Verein on D street northwest between 6th and 7th streets was the scene of a brilliant gather- ing last evening, the occasion being a re- ception to the’ members of the class of eight turners, who won such a glorious vic- tory at the North American Turner Bund in Milwaukee ten days ago. Prof. Julius Duehring, the instructor of the ciuss, had trained his members until they were able to compete with the older and more experi- enced classes from other sections. The mem- bers of the victorious party, besides Prof. Duehring, were Charles Spiess, Albert Reesch, Herman Wolff, Fritz Ecksvein, Ed- ward Saatback, Harry Korn, Henry Pahi and Edward Eschinger. The party left here on the i9th of last month and went to Milwaukee via Chicago, going ffm the latter place to ther destin: tion by water. At the park in Milwaukee quarters had been arranged for the 3,200 bersons who were to take part in the ex- ercises. The appearance of tie Washing- ton class created some surprise,as they not only had the youngest instructor there, but they also had the oldest and youngest man to participate in the events, Mr. Pahl, who } is forty-six years old, being the oldest, and Mr. Eschinger, eighteen, the youngest. It Was the first appearance of the class in an affair of this kind, but they made a credit- able showing, and brought home with them one of the first prizes, having scored 31 1-2 points out of a possible 40. ‘There was a torchlight procession and day 9arade dur- ing the two days previous to the games, and the Washingtonians participaced only in the class games. After the meeting was over the entire Party went to Chicago on specii trains, and paraded in the fair grouads as well a8 siving an exhibition in the arena. The Reception a Surprise. Wednesday evening the successful turn- ers reached home, and last night's recep- tion was in the nature of a surprise to them. ‘The hall was tastefully decorated with flags and bunting, and the !adles had pre- pared to feed several hundred versons. At one end liquid refreshments end cigurs were served, and during the wvening Pres!- dent Reuter delivered an address of wel- come and congratulated the members upon the success of the team, Members of the Washington Saenger- bund, Arion Singing Society ‘and Germania Maennerchor were present, and during the evening they rendered several appropriate selections.

It is authoritatively stated that Mon- signor Satolli has not as yet rendered a de- cision in the case of Dr. Burtsell of New York, and has not positively ordered Arch- bishop Corrigan to restore him to his old parish. ‘The only action so far taken by the apostolic delegate in the case was the writ- ing of a letter to Archbishop Corrigan May 28, in which he said: “This afternoon at 3:30 o'clock a com- mittee of twelve citizens of New York pre- sented themselves to me with a petition that I should interpose my good offices for the purpose of obtaining the return and restoration of the Very Rev.

For the first time in many years the citi- zens of Tenleytown last night came to- gether in mass meeting and discussed with earnestness the general needs of the place. The town hall, south of St. Anne's Catho- lec Church, was the place of congregation, and among those present were the most enterprising men in the suburb, As soon as the meeting was convened Mr. Ernest L. McCobb was elected chairman, and that gentleman, in a formal ianner, explained to the citizens why they had been brought together. Father Joha M. Barry, pastor of St. Anne's Church, spoke of the Brest want of sewerage in the town. Regulations governing the speed of the Georgetown and Tenleytown Electric Ra!l road Company's cars while passing throuyh the most thickly built up part of the town were also needed. It was suid that cars often attained a speed of twenty-five miles an hour while passing through, und that fatal accidents have only been averted by the merest chance. Referring again to drainage he s2id that In his belief hait of the sickness that had fallen upon the town was due to the iinpure water that lies in the gutters until it evaporates, Dr. E. W. Slaymaker spoke of the want of ‘sewerage facilities from a sanitary ndpoint, saying that surface drainage was contaminating the water in che low wells, and thereby rendering it dangerous to heaith. Yet the people were compelled to use the wells. Mr. John H. Wendall thougnt that Ten- leytown's greatest needs were ligits, side- walks and regulations governing the speed of the cars. ‘He stated further that the raflroad company had destroyed the gutter on the west side of the Rockville turnpike immediately north of Tenleytown proper t, and he thought the Commissioners should be re- quested to order the repair of the same, as over a dozen residences were greatly af- fected. Rev. Mr. Falls, pastor of St. Alban's Episcopal Church, chose for the subject of his remarks lights and roads, and recum- mended that they be given a prominent place in the list of the needs to be submit- ted to the Commissioners. After some more general talk Mr. McCobb, the chairman, | was authorized to appoint a cominittee to wait upon the District's rulers an1 ask for the improvements needed. Those appointed were Rev. Father Barry, Rev. Mr. Fal'x, Dr. Slaymaker, Mr, Joseph Kidwell, Mr. J. B, Nourse and Mr. Wm. Britt. SS HEARTH OF HOME.
