POW missioners of the District of ‘Coluabig. ELL, ‘Com it —————————— SENT TO JAIL. Elsy Banks Could Not Furnish $2,000 Ball. ‘The case of the negro, Elzy Banks, charged with shooting at Edward Archer in the latter’s stable yesterday, as pub- lished in yesterday's Star, was tried in the Police Court today. As published yesterday Banks was drunk at the time he did the shooting. Earlier in the day he and Archer had made a bet of %, Banks betting that Archer could not show $200. The latter showed the money, and, therefore, he won the bet. But the intoxicated negro was not satisfied and made an attack on Archer. A fight followed, in which Banks was worsted. His $5 had been returned to him and with a portion of it he purchased a pistol and then went directly to Archer's stable, where he leveled the weapon at Archer and pulled the trigger. The intoxi- cated man’s aim was not good and the bullet went flying through the stable, strik- ing the brick wall near a horse. The arrest followed. Judge Miller informed Mr. Carrington, the prisoner’s counsel, that Banks had been trying to break into the penitentiary or reach the gallows for a long time. “The case will go to the grand jury,” said the court, “and bond will be fixed at $2,000.” Mr. Carrington asked for a reduction of ball, saying Banks was a poor man and = give no such bail as the amount “Because he ts a poor man,” sald the court, “‘he cannot go about the town trying to kill people. The prisoner was committed in default of bail. FOR SALE—FIVE-YEAROLD GOLDEN STOCK Cessories complete and portect at Este cost: bar: jes. com rect at halt cost ® No 3. G. BUCK, Sit Pa. a gain.

Several changes will be made in the corps of physicians at the Emergency Hos- pital next week. Dr. J. Spencer Hough, the resident physician, has resigned in order to pursue his studies at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore. He will in all probability be succeeded by Dr. Walter L. Pyle, who is at present junior assistant, and Dr. Lincoln Johnson, junior assistant, will also be promoted. a Treasury Ten Days’ Statement. ‘The treasury ‘ten days’” statement shows that the custom receipts at New York for the first twenty days of this month aggregated $5,597,571, $1,000,000 less than for the same period last ‘September. An encouraging feature, however, is that of this amount 60 per cent, or about $3,400,- 000, was paid in gold, while last September not so much as 1 per cent was paid in gold. It is through this channel that the gold reserve, which has been paid out freely, has been kept up even to its present figure, which today stands at $94,809,702. This shows a decline since September 1 of $1,- 250,00. With the gold reserve and working balance the net treasury balance today foots up $107,500,000—about the same as on the Ist of the month. ——————— Thomas 8.

The Orack Drill Company, the Fencibles, Looking for European Laurels. The Details of a Possible Tour Through the Old Country Giving Exhibition Drills. Spurred on by the success that has al- ways attended them in all their lines of effort, the members of the National Fen- cibles, the popular drill organization of this city, are now considering a move that goes beyond anything they have ever yet attempted. The plan now under considera- tion is a no less ambitious one than @ tour through several of the principal Buropean countries, under arms and in uniform. The idea was mooted some time ago, but it is only recently that it has begun to seem ‘as though it was a feasible one. If the plan is put into effect, and there seems to be no Teason why it should not be, the National Fencibles, with not less than fifty or sixty members in the command, will sail for Europe in a bosly some time next spring. London, Paris and Berlin are already down on the program to be visited, and it is pos- sible that the trip will be extended as far south as Rome. The trip will ve a-novel one in many ways and should prove to be @ most delightful experience in the the young soldiers. Saeed The idea is said to have had its birth in the mind of Maj. Fred Brackett of this city, who has always shown the deepest interest in this flourishing organization and has attended them on many of their outings. He was abroad last year in the interests of the world’s fair and conceived the idea that a crack drill organizaticn like the Fencibles would probably receive a warm reception on the other side. The Proposition was well received by the boys themselves from the first and the matter has been taken up by them with a vigor sna Shoo should overcome all les that Me in th shelopetnciee the path at the Considering the Details. No definite arrangements have as yet been made, such as engaging steamship accommodations or laying out a definite {tinerary, but a committee has been ap- Pointed to consider the ways and means, as well as the feasibility of the scheme. Lieut. Mosher {s the chairman of the com- mittee, and they have been in communica- tion with Maj. Brackett, who is now in Chicago, with reference to the prelimi- naries. The first thing that must receive a great deal of attention at their hands is the question of finances. This is an all {m- portant matter, and upon this may be said to depend the success or failure of the plan. It would be no small matter to trans- Port @ company of this size on a Huropean trip, but there ts reason to believe that even this difficulty can be overcome. In the first place the Fencibles have rather a tidy sum in their treasury, by no means enough to defray the expenses, of course, but still enough to make a good start. The Fencibles ever since they enjer- ed the ranks of drill companies have had the most flattering success in all the con- tests they have entered. In Kansas City, when they made their debut in 18, they carried off two team prizes and the same number of individual prizes. In Omaha last year they won the first prize of $5,000. It is true they never received but $3,750 of this sum and the expenses of the trip were about $2,000, but still it added to the good side of their bank account. Now they rank among ‘the best drilled companies in the country, if, indeed, they are not the very best. There is no doubt of their being able to make a creditable showing even before the well-drilled companies of Europe. The plan is for them to go over about the time the different European armies are holding their Easter maneuvers. They will give a number of exhibition drills, and this will go far toward paying the expenses of the trip. It is possible, too, that some united effort will be made this coming winter to raise a sum sufficient for the purpose. This will probably be done in the form of a big fair or something of this sort, though nothing definite has been talked of as yet. A number of steamship companies have ready made overtures to the Fencibles and the matter of rates is now under discussion. Another obstacle that now stands in the way is the length of time the command will have to be away from the city. Six weeks ts the length of the stay now talked about, and it may be that some of the men who would like to go will have difficulty in getting away from their places of busi- ness for so long a time. A number of the men are employes of the government and ft is thought that they will have no great difficulty in getting thelr usual leave of a month extended a fortnight without pay. Another committee with fuller powers may be appointed before long to consider the actual details of the proposed trip. ‘The National Fencibles were organized as military company in 1887. Mr. Charles A. Domer was elected captain, an office he has held ever since, and it is to his un- ‘tiring efforts that the success of the com- pany is largely due. 2 DEBATE ON CLOTURE (Continued from First page.) ‘The Speaker, after examination of the files, sald that'the resolution had been pre- sented to the House on the 16th, but had not been delivered to the committee until the 19th. Mr. Loud said that he would not pursue this course if he could have any assurance from the chairman of the committee on foreign affairs that no action would be taken on the bill amendatory of the Geary law until this information was obtained. Mr. McCreary (Ky.) replied that the com- mittee on foreign affairs would take no ac- tion in regard to the bill until next ‘Tues- day. Mr. Springer (i) made the point that Mr. Loud’s motiqn was not in order, but the Speaker overruled the point, and the resolution was adopted, as was also a reso- lution calling for similar information from the Secretary of the ‘Ireasury as to in- structions sent to collectors, &c. * ‘Then the House proceeded (after a brief discussion) to assign an additional clerk to the committee on claims. ‘Then came a report from the committee on accounts assigning an additional clerk to the committee on naval affairs. Mr. Cummings (N. Y.), the chairman, pointed out the necessity of having this clerk. Mr. Cannon -(1ll.) inquired whether this request for an additional clerk indicated that the committee would ask for the con- struction of additional ships. : Mr. Cummings replied that if the com- mittee found that the administration had good ground to make such a recommenda- tion the committee would report the legis- lation. The vote on the report resulted: Yeas, 102; nays, 70—no quorum—and the House at 2:20 adjourned. —___-e-____. IN NEW HANDS, A Lease of Albaugh’s Opera House Made to Edward H. Allen. ‘A lease has been made by the Washing- ton Light Infantry Corps of the theater known as Albaugh’s Opera House to Ea- ward H. Allen for a term of ten yeors, from November 10, 18%, at an annual ren- tal of $20,000. By the terms of the lease Mr. Alien agrees to manage a first-class theater, and is to make all repairs, except those rendered necessary by accidental fire or ordered by the District Commissioners. The lease, which was placed on record yes- terday, 1s signed by Col. W. G. Moore, president of the Washington Light Infantry Corps, and witnessed before Charles M. Loefiter. Mr. Allen ts an experienced theatrical man, both as a stage manager and an ac- tor, having made his debut in Boston many years ago, and afterward acting in some of the best ‘compantes, For the past eight years he has been a restlent of this city, and {s the president of the Allen Publishing Co.

THIS ISA BIG SCHEME. | DISTRICT AFFAIRS. Beal Estate Brokers Who Are Not Li- censed, Assessor Trimble Says the Trouble is ‘With the Law—Other Matters of Local Interest. ‘The question as to whether or not there is any discrimination in the tax assessor's office relative to the taxes assessed against the real estate brokers in the District is a much mooted one just at present, und thos¢ who are paying licenses for conducting a real estate business are very much stirred up over the matter. Mr. R. J. Kirkpatrick, a licensed real estate broker, in conversation with a Star reporter today said: “I consider that it is only just that real estate men, the same as merchants and hucksters, should be made to pay a license, but I do not consider that it 1s equity and justice for a few to pay, and others to do business without a license. There are in the city of Washington over 500 real estate brokers, and out of that number only 201 pay licenses. I have talked to representative real estate men in Wash- ington and they all favor the movement which we propose to start. Just how to get at these unlicensed brokers is the ques- tion that is agitating us now. I have sub- mitted, a list of those who, to my hnowi- edge, are conducting their business without @ license to the tax assessor, and I shall render him all the assistance in my power to bring about a conviction in their cases, should he see fit to prosecute them. “There. will be a meeting of all the lawful brokers in the city next week, probably Saturday, for the purpose of discussing the question, and it is more than probable that some definite results will shortly follow. “In my opinion real estate brokers ought to be bonded, and such a law would be a great protection to the general public against dishonest brokers. “We don’t care to bring a charge against the tax inspectors of being derelict in their duty, but I consider that the existing law on the subject is very much at fault. Un- less the inspectors can prove conclusively that a man has transacted some business conviction cannot be obtained. We pro- Pose to take steps at the meeting to remedy this if possible. I am informed that there are a number of department clerks who are curb stone brokers, and who whenever they see a legitimate real estate man talk- to @ prospective customer seek the latter out and try and side track higigon le for some one else, thereby a commission.” The Assessor Agrees. Assessor Trimble, when spoken to in re- Bard to the matter, stated in substance about what Mr. Kirkpatrick said. “When we see a new sign hung out,” said he, “we at once send an inspector there. If the broker desires to pay his license he does so and if he does not, why, he doesn’t, that ts all there is to it. "We have had a number of them taken before the Police Court and they simply testifled that ‘they had done no business, and as we could not prove to the contrary the case was naturally dis- missed. It is certainly presumptive evi- dence, that when a man has a sign hanging out he is there for the purpose of doing business, and he should be made to pay a license. We are hampered in our efforts to make all pay their taxes by the action of the courts, and I trust that at the meeting to be held next week some action will be taken that will bring about the desired re- It. It is customary with the courts to simply order a man to secure a license when it is conclusively proven that he is doing business without one. The law pro- vides for a fine to be imposed in such cases, but makes it discretionary with the judge whether or not it shall be imposed. I con- sider that when a man falls to secure his license, and is doing business, he is willfully breaking the law, and I consider that he ought to be punished by a heavy fine. As the law now stands it is simply a waste of time to attempt to prosecute an alleged unlicensed broker, as in 99 cases out of 1,000 no conviction’ could be gotten. I will willingiy co-operate with these gentle- men in their torts, and think that if prop- erly handled their’ object will eventually be attained.” The license fee, as enacted by Congress and approved June 20, 1872, is $90 for each broker or real estate agent.

CHICAGO, Sept. 22—Just after $ o'clock last evening a tremendous wind ani rain storm struck Jackson Park, drenched nearly every one of the 100,00 or more spectators who stayed for the illumination, broke In portions of the rodfs of the man- ufactures building and art gallery, blew off 4 section of the movable sidewalk toof and damaged a number of very valuable ex- hibits. The short and violent wind storm of the afternoon, with insignificant shower of rain, had made the sightseeing throng care- less. When evening came and the heavy clouds banked in the north lingered for an hour or more with no apparent danger of rain, the people gathered in throngs about the court of honor to see the electric foun- tains play and watch the search ‘ight color combinations, At ten minutes after 8 came a terrific flash of lightning and a peal of thunder, and almost instantly a solid sheet of water, driven as by a gale, struck the crowd. 1t was as sudden and overwhelming as any cf the memorable storms that damaged the exposition during March and April. ——_ THE MANEUVERS AT GUENER. Emperor Francis Joseph Declares His Satisfaction. VIENNA, Sept. 22.—Emperor Francis Jo- seph has issued an order of the day, in which he declares that he is entirely satis- fied with the way the army maneuvers near Guener, Hungary, which were concluded yesterday, were carried out. His majesty praise the efficiency of the regular troops and the Landwehr, and specially expresses gratification at the good discipline shown by the soldiers and their manifest appre- clation of the objects of the maneuvers. He also refers to the excellent sanitary condition which has been maintained in the camps of the troops who took part in the operations. The emperor concludes by declaring that he himself and the mon- archy have complete confidence {n the army, which not only unceasingly perse- veres in the work of self-improvement, but is fully conscious of all its duties.

LONDON, Sept. 2.—A dispatch today says that a mob of men and women at- tacked a train laden with slack with stones | and other missiles. The engineer and fire- man of the train seemed to be the espe- cial marks for the volleys of the crowd. ‘The mine owners’ agent, after considera- ble trouble, succeeded in persuading the rioters to disperse. In a short time, how- ever, the strikers again gathered, and once more began their riotous demonstrations. ‘They released the brakes of several cars which were standing on the track near a pit and started the cars in motion. They] Pu fortunately ran upon a siding and no dam- age was done. Later the mob set fire to a car contain- ing sixteen tons of hay, and before ary- the flames the car and its contents were con- thing could be done to extinguish sumed.

NEW YORK, Sept. 22--A special from Syracuse, N. Y., says: There is detained at the central police station in this city a very interesting pair of young persons. The pris- oners are a young man of perhaps twenty- two years and a young woman of about the same age. In the latter's ears, when arrest- ed, were a pair of diamond earrings worth not less than $250. On her fingers she wore four or five rings, one of them worth about $300. She also wore a handsome gold watch. ‘On Thursday of last week Chief of Police Wright received a postal card from Buffalo, saying that a gold watch had been stolen from @ hotel in that city. The detectives were put on the case and the watch was found in a pawn shop here. In this way the couple were found. In their was a large quantity of valuable jewelry, includ- ing a box which bore the name of J. W. Bull & Co. of Laporte, Ind. A telegram from that firm received last evening states that the box of jewelry was on the train that was robbed on the Lake Shore at Kendallville, Ind., ten days ago. The identification has been carried no further, but the local police believe that they have one of the gang of train robbers. MEXICO REDUCING EXPENSES. Foreign Creditors Need Not Be Alarm- ed About Payment. PANAMA, Sept. 19.—A dispatch from the City of Mexico states that it is calculated that the silver crisis will involve an annual loss of revenue to Mexico of about $10,000,000. To meet this awkward state of affairs the government of the republic has very sen- sibly determined upon certain economies which are intended to bring down the ex- penses by about 36,000,000, and which ts ex- pected to lighten the taxation. The foreign financiers of Mexico need, therefore, enter- tain no apprehensions as to Mexico fulfilling her engagements to them. fet coast PANIC IN A TENEMENT. Many Narrow Escapes From Death by Fire in New York. NEW YORK, Sept. 22.—There was a panic and a number of narrow escapes from death among the tenants in the five-story tene- ment No. 433 West Sith street, which caught fire about 3 o'clock this morning. The house is one of a row of four tenements and is occupied by twenty families. When the ten- ants were aroused the stairway was ablaze and escape this way was cut off. The firemen arrived promptly, however, and took the frightened and half-clad ten- ants down the fire escapes. John Duffy made a rush down the staircase and was severely burned about the head and body when he reached the street. The total loss is about $15,000. It is stated the fire was caused by a man residing in the house throwing a lighted lamp at his wife during a quarrel. John Duffy died from his injuries at the Roosevelt Hospital about 10 o'clock. FRANKLIN, Miss., Sept. 22—The Congre- gational Church was burned and the Cres- cent House and several dwellings damaged by fire and water this morning. Loss, $40,000.
