Having completed his journey around the on which he started a year ago, John L. Stoddard has arrived home. Trav- ling, or in constant communication, with Messrs. Burditt and North, Mr. Stoddard entered Japan at Yokohama by the west- ward voyage across the Pacific. He de- Yoted many weeks to an observation of the curious customs and strange civilization of this singular land, and greatly enjoyed its fine natural scenery. ving Japan at Nagasaki the next stage in the journey carried him to China, which he found even more remarkable in ‘many ways than Ja- ‘Thence to India, stopping for short Rime in the Island ‘of Ceylon. Reaching Hindostan, the great English empire of the east, Mr. ‘Stoddard looked with awe upon tha tremendous snow-clad Himalayas, and studied with varied but ever lively interest the historic cities, splendid capitals and noted places of India. Leaving this coun- try at Bombay Mr. Stoddard soon reached Europe, where he has been engaged in per- fecting the lectures for the approaching season, and which will. in connection with those of former years, complete a series which will span the giobe. Mr. Stoddard’s fourteenth season will open at Chicago in October. bed chamber calls, “Mr. Policeman, can't you stop that dog’s barking?” “No, madam,” is the usual response, “that fs not in'my power.” “But he disturbs our family,” insists the gentle voice from the white robe. “Can't help it, madam. You will have to get a warrant for the owne: ‘The officer goes on and the dog continues to 3 te lungs. There is a section of the police tions which covers such cases, but in or- der to prosecute it must be shown that the particular individual has been disturbed. A policeman attending to his duties could hardly be disturbed and an effort on his to suppress a barking canine might looked upon with suspicion by his su- perior officers unless the disturbance is in the neighborhood of his home where he sleeps. There are many citizens who would lke to get rid of noisy dogs, but who re- frain from dot So because they are afraid of offending their neighbors. The same law applies to crowing roosters and cack- ling hens. Drilis ana Trials. ‘The absence of a drill hall for use of the police is greatly regretted just now. The annual review of the police generally takes place in September, and while no arrange- ments have yet been made for such an af- fair, it is possible that the review will not be omitted this year. It ts the desire of Maj. Moore to have the review, but as this official's time is occupied with other mat- ters, and he has no other person upon whom he can depend to act as drill mastery he is afraid he cannot get the men well drilled in time for the review and anni- versary celebration. ‘The trials of members of the police force by the trial committee are causing the oMicials some annoyance and a waste of much valuable time. Under the law sworn charges of a citizen have to be investi- fated, and the number of trivial cases eard lately has convinced the members of the board that some discretion . should be allowed. In many cases where the offt- cers make arrests and fall to sustain the charges in court they are complained against before the trial board. The trial —— Y Says the Deed ts Fraudulent. Joseph Wesley, by R. W. Bishop, has filed a Dill to cancel deed against R. S. ‘Lawrenson et al. He states that prior to ugust 30, 18%. he was the owner of sub it" square 7i6, om 2d street near I strect northwest, and on the day named there ‘was received at the recorder of deeds’ office ‘what purported to be a deed from himself ind_wife conveying the property for $2,500/ deprives the city of the services of two fo Lawrenson. and subsequently deeds of | lieutenants and’ the captain, and, May, trust were recorded conveying the same | Moore's stenographer has to take the testi- He states the deed fs a false,|mony. Trials have become so numerous udulent and fictitious instrument, for neither he nor his wife signed. sealed and acknowledged the same, and the signatures are forgeries. He states that the first knowlaige he had of the deed or deeds of trust was about June 2%, when the prem- fses were advertised for sale, when he ap- Plated and warmed purchasers. This deed a cloud on his title, which he asks to be Femoved. lately that the board finds it necessary sometimes to meet more than one day in @ week. The duties of the chief clerk and the roperty clerk, which are filled by Mr. ichard Sylvester, have been greatly tn- creased during recent years, but there has been no corresponding increase in salary. This official handles and is held responstbie for all the valuable property which comes imto the hands of the department. Thi property now amounts to nearly $1,000,000 annually. Police Pensions. With seventy-two persons on the pension list and ‘the fund on the steady decrease, Major Moore realizes the necessity of con- gressional action at an early date. The members of the force contribute $1 a month each to the fund, and an occasional picnic or excursion has greatly assisted in keeping the fund out of danger, but Major Moore does not app@eve of this manner of taxing the community, and therefore it is Lot likely that there will be a police excursion this summer. The pensions now paid range from $10 to $0 a month. Next week two covered patrol wagons will appear in service. This is an experi- ment so far as this city is concerned, and one which is welcomed by the officers and citizens alike. The coverings will not only Protect the officers and prisoners from the Weather, but will also hide from view many unpleasant sights, and prevent the usual string of boys and others from running ter the wagons to see the unfortunates un loaded at the police stations. Surgeons and Weapons. As stated in The Star a few days ago, the new board of police surgeons organized with the election of Dr. Addison as pres! dent of the board. One new move made by the new board will be a great relief to some of the patients. It has been decided that when an operation is to be performed it ty to be done not by one physician in at tendance, but with as many members the board present as possible. At the first meeting of the board twenty-eight appli- cants were examined, and only eleven were accepted. The new concealed weapon law provides for the destruction of weapons by the prop- erty clerk, and next week sixty-four such Weapons will be destroyed. The weapons will be broken, and will then be thrown in the channel of the river from the patrol boat “Joe Blackburn.” Heretofore such weapons as were left on hand were sold and the proceeds went to the credit of the policemen’s fund. An invoice of thirty-six Colt’s revolvers reached uarters yes- terday to take the place of some of the pis- tols that have seen many years of service in the department. Althoush the new liquor license year does not begin until November, preparations are now being made for the work. This being the first year of securing licenses under the new law, the officers will have plenty of work on hand, and the task of verifying the ‘signatures will consume several weeks at least. = Real Estate Matters.

THEY WEAR BADGE S| 4B- MANNS ODORIFEROUS BUSINESS He Says It Has Been Misrepresented and He Will Make a Contest. Mr. Patrick Mann, proprietor of the guano factory, which has been condemned as a nuisance by the health department, will contest the action of the health de- partment in court. He claims that the condition and character of his place has been misrepresented in the reports made concerning it. In talking with a Star re- porter he said that much of the foul odor complained of by excursionists is due, ant to the horse boilery, but to the garbaze which is dumped along the shore by the garbage contractor. He challenges an in- spection of his place and says he does not fear the verdict of an honest investigator. ‘There were perhaps some improvements which might be made in the conduct of the factory, but the ten days’ limit given him by the health officer is not time enough. He had, he said, already begun the covering of his scows and wagons and this work would soon be completed. He Was casting around for an odorless method of cooking his animals, and if such method could not be found he was perfectly willing to stake out a claim further down the riv- er. He expressed a willingness to meet the public more than half way. He denied that the perfume arising from the works Was‘injurtous to health, or that {t contain- ed poisonous gases, He pointed out to the Teporter a corps of herculean examples of stalwart manhood, and added that they had been employed at the factory for twelve years, that they had never even had the toothache, never contracted any doctor's ills, utterly refused to die and continued to grow fat. He denied that the shore around his place was reeking with dlood and offal. He denied that he ver- mitted carcasses to decompose before he removed them from the city, because, if for no other reason, it was bad business Policy. The hide of a dead horse, he sald, was the most valuable part of his anat- omy and this was of no avail if the horse Was not fresh. Carcasses were removed from the scene of their death as soon as possible after the unhappy occurrence. The residents of the country around the mill, he sald, had never complained to him. His methods, he said, were the same as those employed by the National Sanitary Com- ny, Which did business within the city imits. With a good deal of energy Mr. Mann declared that the present fight on him was a put up job by a rival concern. He said he was going to see the fight out. ‘To the Editor of The Evening Star: Please do the country the favor of re- publishing this clipping from The Star of loth inst. It is part of an article on chol- era, from @ Naples correspondent: “The population of Italy this year has shown a greater tendency than ever be- fore to move to America by way of Naples. Forty thousand had gone June. A thousand have left since the outbreak of cholera in July. They were isolated for five days, bathed, vaceinated and disinfected. “The Massilia, Cashmere and Weser are now carrying. ‘these carefully prepared emigrants to New York. The Hesperia of the Anchor line, with 40) on board, has now commenced her isolation in the harbor, and her sengers will be bathed and vacci- nated on Monday. The emigrants have been in a mutinous condition at what they call outrageous conduct of the American government in quarantining them in their own country. The Crown Prince of the North German Lioyd line will sail next with about 500 emigrants, “France has just announced that she will not give a clean bill of health to ships from Naples. Greece has established quar- antine. ‘he breeding places of cholera in Naples are wells in the Bosso portion and elsewhere, in which refuse food and sewage ig thrown. Sereno water,supplied to Naples, 1s excellent, but the people have to pay for using more than a certain quantity, and have no hesitation in using filthy’ well water. Bosso Porto is an ancient street filled with itinerant venders of fruit, meat and sewage-fed fish. People live in cel- lars, called bassi, of great old houses. These have no outlet but the front door. Another feature of Neapolitan architecture is a set of buildings having windows only om the court-yard, which receives most of the sewage. “Three persons died in a house facing the post office. One was a woman called La Bella Tutarola, or the beautiful fruit seller, one of the popular beauties of Na- ples, The lower classes hide their sick under beds, believing that cholera is the result of the upper classes trying to poison the lower, in order to reduce the popula- tion, They even say that King Humbert is in the conspiracy, although he worked with his own hands among them when they were dying at the rate of 1,50) a day.” I can vouch for all the correspondent says concerning the abject poverty and filth, ag well as the ignorance and super- stition of the masses in all Itallan cltle having been for many years United States consul in that country and having passed through two seasons of cholera in Italy. T have just been walking through an Itallan section of New York, and tind it simply a reproduction of like portions of any city in iy. Will Congress allow this gorge of vile, ig- norant and diseased humanity to break upon our shores at a time when the na- on is threatened with a scourge of cholera? Will Congress allow whole regiments of foreign paupers to land on our shores at a time when our own laboring peo daily thrown out of employment by thot sands through the stringency of financial affairs? Does Congress know of the wave of unemployed American labor which 1s flowing from the mines of the Rocky moun- tains to meet the counter wave from the manufacturing districts in the east, seek- ing employment and facing starvation for the coming winter? any intelligent Congressman not know that all these regiments of emigrants, recruited from the unemployed masses of every nation in Europe, will be picketed upon us to be fed, not only during the com- ing winter, bat many Jong months in the immediate future, while the nation is ri cuperating from ‘this financial blow, at a time when but slowly will return the ‘power to employ labor in the factories and mines of America? Congress must defend the honest tndus- trial classes of our own people against this great danger that impends. One day's consideration and action, on its part, will stay the curse which threatens not’ only the laboring classes, but every other in- terest, physical and moral, in the future. The unemployed labor ‘in our country, during the next two or three years of Anancial recuperation, may be the cause of more trouble and expense to the nati than can be conceived of today. Is it a Mise policy to, add to the delicacy of the situation by admitting this surplus of pov- erty from all the nations to divide the loaf with our own citizens, who would labor for their bread at home, but cannot find work? Shall this curse be perpetuated, when it is to the interest of no one except the foreign ship owner? The silver insignificant com- pared with lence of this greater one of vital national importance. If Congress will repeal the Sherman law and ‘a brand new act prohibiting emi- gration for at least one year it will go back to its constituency with an assured chance of being “returned” by a grateful people.

THE LIGHT INFANTRY ENCAMPMENT It Will Be at Atlantic City and Ar- rangements Are Perfected. Four years ago the Washington Light In- fantry Corps camped at Atlantic City. This year they are going to repeat the experience and are planning a stay at this famous sea- side resort the like of which has never been seen before. They leave here next Sat- urday, and so far as possible all the ar- rangements have been already made by the committee having such matters in charge, consisting of Capt. Allison Nallor, Jr, chairman; Capt. C. H. Ourand, Lieut. A. W. Kelley, Sergt. J. B. K. Lee, Sergt. L. T. Boisseau, Sergt. John Heydler and Cor- porals House and Williams,and to whom too much praise cannot be given. Through their exertions low rates have been secured for the friends of both organizations at the Untted States, Leland and St. Charles hotels; also & special railroad reduction for those going down with the corps on Saturday evening. The Fourth Artillery Band has been en- Saged to furnish music during the encamp- ment, and a special train will leave the Pennsylvania depot at 5 o'clock, arriving at Atlantle City about 10:30 p.m. The Light Infantry will be accompanied the War Department Guards, and the chances are that the residents of the city by the sea will turn out in force to give the boys all the fun there is to be had in Jer- beautiful lawn in front of the St. Charles Hotel, 220 by 1,100 feet, has been se- lected as the’ camping ground, which, be- sides affording ample space for eighty iarge sized tents, will furnish adequate accommo- dation for company and battalion drills, guard mounts and dress parades.

Mr. J. C. Allen was called to the chair and Capt. Robt. Armour acted as secre- tary of the meeting. Resolutions were adopted, and Mr. H. H, Smith, Mr. J. C. Allen and Col. A. Web- ster, representing the session of the church, the ‘deacons and the trustees, were ap- pointed a committee to present the resolu- tions at the meeting of the presbytery, soon to be held. The resolutions expressed gratitude for “the faithful and efficient ministry of Rev. T. S. Wynkoop in the Western Presbyte- rian Church for the past fifteen years, and in the unbroken harmony and the growth and prosperity of this church during all his leadership.” They also express “deep regret that he should be called from us, and that we only yield to what seems to us the direct ordering of God in the call of the north India auxiliary of the British and Foreign Bible Society for a vastly wider field of usefulness and higher responstfbility, for which he is so eminently and rarely qualified.” ——— THE COURTS. a Probate Court—Justice Bradley.

Kerlin, late captain United States army, occurred at his resi- dence in this city ‘yesterday afternoon. The deceased was in recent years in business in Washington until failing health prevented him. He was sixty-four years of age. Capt. Kerlin resided in Virginia at the outbreak of the war, but, pushing hie way through the lines to Washington, enlisted as a volunteer aid-de-camp, and was assigned to staff duty in the eleventh army corps.

A grand street parade of all the Catholic societies of the city will take place. ——— New Furnace at the Navy Yard. ‘The new furnace for assembling heavy ordnance will be put in place at the Wash- ington gun foundry in a few days, and ord- ance officers are awaiting its ‘operation with interest. The furnace is intended to prevent the sticking of tube and jacket of t guns while in process of assembling. it makes an entire change in this process. Instead of the jacket being expanded in a pit and then placed over the tube, the tube inserted in the furnace in a horizontal Position, and while the intense heat 1s ap- plied the tube is forced to its seat. A de- vice is affixed to the tube so that a stream of cold water is spplied ta the abe ae ies being shoved into the jacket. By this sys- tem the jacket 1s not free of the heat of ex- nsion until the tube has been correctly Inserted, and the possibility of the jacket contracting upon the tube is thereby les- sen. ‘The first gun to be assembled by the Sel- lers furnace will be the nickel-steel_gun, the parts of which are ready at the Wa: ington ordnance shops. This is the first nickel-steel weapon, and is intended as an experimental gun, to be used at the Indian Head proving ground in testing powder. ‘The gun is of eight-inch caliber. It will be assembled as soon as the pyrometers, used for measuring the temperature in the fur- nace, are received. Decrease of Customs Receipts. ‘The receipts from customs at the port of New York for the first ten days of August More $0,004.09, as againat $4,851,120 for the corresponding period of last year.

The $10,000,000 gold reserve is in- tact, and $3,863,280 “free gold” is in the treasury for use in current business. ZIMMERMAN IS AHEAD. He Captures the First International Race and Breaks a Record. A. A. Zimmerman won the first of the international championship races run dur- ing the L. A. W. meeting at Chicago yes- terday. In addition to capturing that event, a ten-kilometer dash, he reduced in the same race the six-mile American com | petition record of 18.45 2-5, made by Seeley, in New York, last year, to 15.33 35. He proved, too, that he was a long distance as well as a sprint racer, by covering the quarter in twenty-seven seconds, a per- formance that none on earth, except him- self, has ever equaled. C. T. Knisely of Chicago, who broke the four-mile record on Wednesday to 10.13, further chopped that mark yesterday to 19.12 1-5 in the same international race. In this race the jockeying against Zim- merman did not work. He remained well to the rear to the final lap, and then fol- lowed Johnson in the latter's spurt down the stretch. Not until he reached the turn, however, did he lean over his machine and exert himself. He was then a length behind the Minneapolis man. He passed Johnson half way down and won easily. ighneon was ured and lost second place to ‘The fractional time was: One mile, 2.21 24; two miles, 5.08 2-5; three miles, 7.40 2-5; four miles, 10.12 1-5; five miles, 12.63; six miles, 15.33 3-6; ten kilometers, 15.56 15." All the Americans, except Bode, finished in front of the foreigners. Osmond, the En- glishman, and Seyber, the Mexican, did not start. The time of the previous races this week caused the latter to leave town last night. Zimmerman also won the half-mile open easily. Hoyt and Smith and Zimmerman took the empty honors of the two-mile invitation team race, for which they had a walkever. Zimmerman also qualified for the third- mile open, but did not start in the final, the event going to Tyler. In five days Zim: merman has been beaten only once in a scratch race’ A. D. Kennedy of Chicago won the three-mile handicap, with an al- lowance of 245 yards, in 7.08 1-2, and W. Rhoades, also of Chicago, took the one- mile 2.30 class tn 2.43 3-5, hanateap, with a stare of cighey five yards andicap, with -five yards, in 1.01 3-5. A bigger crowd was in attend- ance at the races yesterday. at least 4,000 enthusiasts cheering on the wheelmen.
