A New Play Presented.—Ramsay Morris’ comedians appeared in a new program at the New National Theater. The company justified the good things that have been Said of it, an] there were many points of Both performances that elicited expressions ©f approval from the audience. The curtain- raiser, “Mrs. Pendleton’s Four-in-hand, gives “Miss Elsie De Wolfe an opportunity for good work, and she makes a careful and conscientious effort to improve it. The play was given for the first thae on any stage last night. It is ingenious fn its complica- tion and there are sprightly spots in the dialogue. The impression ieft by last night's Presentation, however, is that it is still chiely important because the writer of so good a play as the “Circus Rider” was con- €erned in its authorship. “The Judge™ Proved to be a very merry play, with enough strong parts in it to insure each member of the company’s doing justice to his capabil- {ties There is an abundance of material for fun and the laughter came promptly and spontaneously from the audience when- ever the lines or the situation suggested ‘that {t was due. Mr. George Giddens gave an excellent picture of the old judge with hypochondrical tendencies. Miss De Wolfe sives a spirited determination of a strong- minded yet impulsive widow. “As You Like It."—On assurance of Prof. Hezen of the weather bureau that Sat- urday will be a perfect day the Messrs.

A Colored Boy Arrested, but Escaped Notes of Interest. ‘The trial of John Bartgis, the man ac- cused of murdering the old canal buat mas- ter, Capt. McCay, while wut ca a ‘ishing }expedition with him on the upper Poto- mac near the point known as Falling Waters, has been set for Ortober 3 at Mar- | tinsburg. The murdered man, who was a resident of Cumberland, was recreating along the river with ~od and gun when he fell in with Bartgis and some companions, ‘and being fond of company he Invited two of them to go out in a boat to a lonely but good fishing spot with him. Bartsis re- turned, but McCay did not aad after sev- eral days’ hunt the old captain's body was found in the Potomac with a heavy cut across the head that had evideatly been inflicted by an oar. The cld ::an's money, which it was known he carried out with him, was not found and gave additional proof that the death had been a foul one. ‘The companions of Bartgis were released, it being shown that at the time cf the murder he was on shore several miles away preparing dinner. All the followers of the canal are watching with interest the developments in the case, as Capt. Mc- Cay was widely known along the entire course and generally ‘iked. Canal Matters. Boats to arrive at Georgetown yesterday by way of the canal were as follows: M. J. Adler, Capt. Reynolds; Theo. Dean, Capt. Creamer; No. 115, Capt. Dick; No. 107, Capt. Smith; Judge Sradley, Capt.

For the purpose of obtaining $3 William Brockenberry, a colored boy, is alleged to have committed forgery yesterday and con- fronted himself with a term in the peniten- tary. The manner of procedure in the case was as follows: Brockenberry wrote a note to Mrs. Benj. Gissel, a sister of Mrs. Pettis, asking for the loan of $3 and signing Mr. Pettis’ name to it. This he dispatched through a smaller boy named Shelton, who, it is believed, acted innocently in the case. The $3 was sent by Shelton, who delivered {t to the write: of the note, who, in turn, Went out to have a large time. Officer Bur- rows, however, a little later, was made ac- quainted with the circumstances of the for- gery and placed young Brockenberry under acrest. When the police went back in the lockup department this morning they were astonished to find that a large hole had been knocked out of the wall of cell No. 4, in which Brockenberry had been placed, and that the prisoner hed flown. The walls of these cells have the thickness of three bricks, and with what afd the man secured his release is a mystery. No tool of any kind was discovered about. Brockenberry is also known as Bird.

VIENNA, Sept. 15.—Thousands of 80- cialists gathered in the Drehersaal last evening to welcome the German socialists Herren Bebel and Engels, and to agitate in favor of universal suffrage. Herren Bebel and Engel received an ova- tion upon entering the hall, When quiet was restored the meeting proceeded to the election of a president, and amid much en- thusiasm Herr Engels was nominated for the office. 5 At this point @ commissary of police in- terposed, and the proposal to elect Herr Engels was abandoned. The latter was, however, conducted to the seat of honor, which he occupied during the proceedings. A telegram, sent by 300 members of the infantry reserve in Transylvania, re- ceived and read to the meeting. This tele- gram, which demanded an extension of the franchise, and the establishment by law of an eight-hour working day, caused a great sensation, and {ts reading was most en- thuslastically cheered. Herr Bebel made a speech in the course of which he advised the Austrian workmen to ccntinue the agitation for universal suffrage until they obtained their demands. Such extension of the franchise, he declared, Would alone give them the power to resist | capitalism and militarism, and put an end to the era of magazine rifies. Since the soclalists were not provided with weapons, they must win the sympathy of those bear- ing arms. The red flag would then be vic- tortious. Herr Engels declared that the enthustastic welcome extended to Herr Bebel and him- self was due to the spread of theories ad- vanced by Karl Marx. Socialism, he added, was a great power that was rapidly grow- ing in the remotest parts of the world. Unl- versal suffrage would prove the best weapon of the proletariat. It was already terrify- ing the German bourgeoisie, the emperor and Chancellor von Caprivi. When the Vienna workingmen captured the town hall on July 7, fear was stamped on the faces of the newspaper reporters, whom he saw the same day in London. The speeches were wildly applauded, After singing the “Labor hymn” the meet- ing adjourned. ————— REBEL AGAINST NEW TAXES. of Socialists in The Spanish People Incensed at the Burdens Placed on Them, MADRID, Sept. 15.—The excitement throughout the country, growing out of the fiscal reforms recently adopted by the gov- ernment, has not abated by any means. The agitation against the new measures has been carried on to a greater extent in the provinces of Navarre, Tarragona, Cor- dova, and Oviedo than elsewhere in the country, and the people are deeply incensed | at the government because of the new bur- dens placed upon them in the way of taxa- tion. The principal cities and towns in the provinces named have been the scenes of Much rioting. The anger of the people has found vent in attacks upon the tax collec- tors, who have been mobbed and stoned. The officials have been go intimidated by the violence to which they have been sub- Jected that their work is practically at a standstill, The most serioug outbreak oc- curred in the town of Mont Blanc, a place of about 5,000 inhabitants, situated seven- teen miles northwest of Tarragona. Here, when the civic guard attempted to disperse a mob that was howling against the government and smashing the windows | of houses with stones, the rioters, some of whom were armed with revolvers, fired upon the guards. The latter retaliated, fir- ing into the crowd. Three of the rioters were instantly killed and several were’ more or less seriously wounded, Window smash- ing has been a feature of the disturbances and the houses of the government officials, particularly those occupied by the tax col- lectors, have scarcely a whole pane of glass in them. ees SUBJECTED TO QUARANTINE, Vessels From New York 11 Be De-~ med Outside Lisbon.

Defendant carried on a vigorous court- before, after and between the acts. He made love with such ardor that Miss Burson agreed to be his wife. Before the final curtain, the pair left for the North- Western depot to take train for Milwaukee. What was done with Mrs. Burson is not stated. At the station it was learned thet no trains for the desired destination would | leave that night. The couple then went to the Hotel Metropole for supper. Here Migs Burson alleges that she was drugged and that she knew nothing more until she awoke in the morning and found herself in bed. Gage then threatened to kill her {€ she divulged what had passed. They left the place in a carriage, and when Gage stopped for a drink she telephoned her mother, who came and rescued her. Miss Burson was at one time employed In the agricultural division of the census office, but was dismissed last December on a necessary reduction of force. Superinten- dent Wardle remembers her, and met her last Sunday at the world’s fair. She then seemed to be in gay spirits. She is said to be @ petite blond and is only about five feet tall. While In the census office she bore spotless reputation. Her father ts John W. Burson of 607 Oronoco street, Alexandria. Mrs. Burson was appointed to the land office from Iowa, March 2, 18%, and holds a $200 clerkship. She has been absent on leave but a few days. The story has excited a vast deal of ccmment in the Interior Denartment. The Burson Family in Alexandria. A dispatch to The Star from Alexandria says: Mr. Burson's family have resided on Oronoko street near the cotton factory in a spacious old mansion for some time. ‘They were all absent today. They have few acquaintances here, being like many residents of Alexandria, entirely occupied with society and business in Washington. Until publication of the Chicago matter very few Alexandrians knew of their resi- dence in this city, although they have lived here for more than seven years. ——— PERMANENT APPROPRIATIONS.
