The murderer, although armed with a 38-callber bull-dog revolver, with which he committed the deed, sub- mitted without a struggle. Kurtz and Haun were also arrested for not reporting the murder earlier. After being taken to the station house Roemelle declared that he committed the deed because of jealousy and said he had lived with Mary Simpson for seven years.

Treasures at Chicago That Should Come to Washington. TO BE HAD FOR THE ASKING. But No Money to Pay Freight and Other Charges. THE NATIONAL MUSEUM. ‘Staff Correspondence of The Evening Star. CHICAGO, October 25, 1893. Hundreds of Washingtonians and hun- dreds of others among Americans who are interested in the growth of the nation’s curiosity shop have, after feasting their souls on the wealth of valuable material displayed at the world’s Columbian expo- sition, exclaimed: “How much will the National Museum get out of all this?” The question was a reasonable one, and had the people of the United States reached that stage of their education where archaeolog- fecal and artistic and mineral and ethno- logical riches would be truly appreciated @ great quantity of the wonders that tempted millions to Chicago would soon be on its way to Washington, there to be ex- hibited in the greater museum building which must sooner or later supersede or be added to the present inadequate structure. But no such results are possible in this country at this time, and the wealth of the National Museum will not be materially added to by reason of the near proximity For the existence of this condition there are two principal rea- sons: One is the nationally discreditable one that there are no funds available with which to purchase some of the desired articles; the other {s a combination of proper pride and inexcusable poverty—for the National Museum authorities have not even intimated to any of the exhibitors that they would receive gifts, and if they had acted in such bad taste as to become mendicants of the indirect variety the mu- seum was without the cash necessary to transport the goods that might and prob- ably would have been bestowed by the more generous of the exhibitors. A gov- ernmental drag-net, even if operated by unskillful hands, would have gathered in an immense quantity of such things as go to make up great museums, and the only expenditures called for would have been those incidental to freight and temporary Private individuals have, however, been much less considerate than the govern- ment’s representatives. Efforts were made some time ago to found what was called the Columbian Museum of Chicago, and to secure from the foreign nations repre- sented at the fair contributions of greater or less value. The methods adopted by- some of those who were engaged in aiding the scheme were undoubtedly ra tigaae rr there were results. It was a “stand an‘ liver” sort of a proceeding. Every exhib- itor received what seemed to be an official notification that he was privileged to do- nate as much or as little as he pleased to the Columbian Museum,and while many of the Americans were, so to speak, onto the proposition, the foreigners naturally deemed themselves unable to refuse;.so they con- tributed, and in at least one instance with extraordinary liberality. And now it would seem as though the Columbian Museum had gone glimmering, because there is no warm disposition in Chicago to contribute the $250,000 seme the building would cost, or to guarantee the $100,000 annually which would be needed for running expenses, to say nothing of the sums required to pur- = necessary exhibits that are now for oeThere are many things at the world’s far that the government ought to possess, and they can be — ange any Png oon Representatives of other powers - fous to show their good will and, if Con- gress behaves with only a little decency, foreign liberality will not be entirely scorn- ed. Several weeks ago the Viking ship was offered to the National Museum, but up to date no one here has heard of its havin; been accepted. Out and out rejection woul have been discourteous, so the Fabian policy was adopted, and now the endeavor is to decline the gift without letting Capt. Andersen know that it has been declined. The museum people would be only too de- lighted to have such a prize, but they are helpless. To move the ship around to Washington from Chicago would cost more money than the museum has to spend, and even if the valuable craft were already there it would be difficult to find a place in which to shelter it. Thousands of Norse- men contributed toward the cost of con- struction, and as daring a crew as ever sailed the seas navigated e cockleshell from the land of the midnight sun to our shores, and yet the freely proffered gift of warm Norwegian hearts may be refused, because this government iss too poor to erect a suitable shelter over the curious and deeply interesting boat.

Curtis first suggest- ed to the Spanish authorities the construc- tion of the caravels—replicas of the world- famous Santa Maria, Nina and Pinta—it was definitely stated and so understood on the part of both nations that as soon as possible after the conclusion of the fair the three quaint vessels should be towed around to Washington and kept continually in a lagoon not very far south of the White House, there to be on exhibition. It was agreed that they should be under the con- trol of the National Museum, and that they should be of the city’s permanent attrac- tions, An elaboration of the plan was to secure the services of a sufficient number of old salts from the Sailors’ Home at Phila- delphia, and have them act as guides and custodians; an admizable idea, for the jackies could sit around and spin yarns of the seafaring days when sailors were saflors and not engineers and firemen Of course the caravels will have to stay here until spring; the weather is likely to be too stormy for the voyage before that time, and even if there was promise of sunshine and calm for three months to come there is no money available to defray expenses. When the caravels reach Washington—Congress will soon be asked to appropriate the necessary cash—the cost of maintenance will be so small as to be hardly worth mentioning; an annual dose of paint is about all they will need. The sum of $2,500 will pay the towage bills, and that is about all it will cost to keep faith with Spain. The Spanish government gave the Santa Maria to the United States on the condition that the model of Columbus’ flagship should be given @ home in Washington; surely the promise will be respected. Some Things Washington Will Prob- ably Get. In the days when the Chicago Columbian Museum was a live and aggressive threat there was possibility of the national cap- ital suffering serious loss, but-the danger now seems to be past. At the Convent of La Rabida is the finest collection of his- torical objezts concerning America ever brought together. Both Mr. Curtis and Capt. John G. Bourke have hoped that the collection will be appreciated to such an extent as to insure entirety, and Mr. Cur- tis and Mr. A. R. Spofford have planned that it might find its resting place in the new Congressional Library—a laudable de- sire. When the library is in its modern home it is Mr. Spofford’s intention to have all the books on the early history of Amer- ica assembled in one place, and to surround them with this collection’ of pictures and maps. There is now no obstacle to the plan. The collection betongs to the govern- ment and Is controlled by the Secretary of State, and as the Chicago museum is out of the way there will hardly be any re- tentive pressure brought to bear upon Sec- retary Gresham. A few Chicago people have displayed some desire to have the Convent of La Rabida remain where it is, and as it is but the movement lacks force, so the application which Mr. Spofford is going to make to the State Department is reasonably sure of an affirmative reply. Another very fine exhibit which Libra- rian Spofford is after is in the gallery of the government building—the Curtis col- lection relating to South America. It illus- trates the life, customs and architecture of the various and interesting peoples who reside beneath the southern cross, and en- ables any one who can understand pictures to take a long trip without fatigue or ex- pense Mr. Spofford wants the collection so that he can use it to embellish the Mbrary alcove devoted to South American litera- ture, and as this aggregation, like that at La Rabida, is controtled by the Secretary of State, Mr. Spofford will doubtless get what he is after. These Are Going to Get Away. But of the many wonderful exhibits of pre- historic man’s activity, ‘brought to Chicago from all parts of the earth, none are likely to reach Washington. Several should be acquired by the government, but unless Congress develops extremely sudden inte>- est in the most fascinating of sciences, private collections or enterprising college museums will capture much that is rare and valuable and comparatively cheap. The Colombia and Guatemala and Peruvian antiquities, some of them remarkably fine, and comp-ising specimens of stone, gold and pottery, may now be had for a few thousand dollars, while a serious effort to do anything like duplicate them by original exploration would use up a large chunk of the government's gold reserve. There are two Wisconsin collections well worth mak- ing an effort for, and every archaeologist casts envious eyes on the late discoveries of Dr. Emil Hassler in Brazil. The Cif Dwellers antiques are high grade, and so is the unique collection that came from Libe- ria, the latte> being especially desirable and valuable. The Guesde collection from Guad- aloupe Island and the collection discovered in Cambodia by Prof. Jammes—both in the Tunis building—ought to find a final home in the National Museum. But they will not, unless their possessors not only donate them to the institution, but also pay all freight or express charges. Careless as to Ourselves. North American indifference to matters in which we should be patriotically interested can be seen most clearly when an inter- national comparison is instituted. A bright- er, more progressive people than those of the United States never existed, but there are many more learned nations on the globes surface. Strange as it may seem, and hard to believe as it certainly will be, we are far to the rear of Germany, for while we are rather proud of the fact that we know very little about ourselves, Ger- many has a vast number of works in High Dutch on the ethnology, anthropology, an- Uquities and natural sciences of this belov- ed land of ours. Foreign nations and educa- tional institutions send learned men here to investigate, and our students must be con- tent with the information consequent upon the discoveries of those distinguished visit- ors. Not only do we send no agents to other lands, but we depend to a — able extent upon foreign enterprise facts as to much that has happened andl ‘s happening on our own continent. And this extraordinary indifference must be held accountable for the fact that the opportunity of the century cannot be im- proved by those who are among the fore- most in the great work of education and civilization, eens WALLACE, THE LION, SECURED. The Owner Urged to Prompt Steps by the Police. “Sultan” Wallace, the big African lion, which escaped from his cage in the stable at 129 East 18th street, New York, on Thurs- day, was got back into his cage yesterday. Wallace slept peacefully from 1 o'clock in the morning until sunrise close to the carcass of the horse he had slaughtered. His digestion did not seem to have been at all impaired by his banquet of yesterday and his gluttonous appetite seemed sharp- ened by his night's rest. AS soon as ‘t was light enough to see he breakfasted on thirty or forty pounds more of horse meat, shook his mane contentedly and began strutting about the narrow con- fines of the ble, ready to resist the at- tempts of his keepers or anybody else to put him back into his den. Three police- men stood guard ir front of the barricaded doors of the stable, and by making _. sional swoops on the crowd managed t clear the streets long enough to let the horse cars pass. Police Captain Gallagher of the eigh- teenth was on hand all the morning direct- ing operations and sent out a peremptory order to the owners ~~" = house that un- less that lion was in his cage by noon he would have him killed. About that time Lion Tamers Con'in and McDonald from Barnum’s, Bronco Boccacio, Manager Bostock and Police Captain Gallagher en- tered the stable determined either to cage or shoot the beast. The lion was quickly caught into the nets which the men car- ried and afterward securely caged. ——-_-- 20+ WESTERN OUTLAWS CAPTURED. Many Murders and Robberies Charged Against Them. Jack Dillen, ex-convict, and “Happy Jack,” the two daring outlaws who held up a Coeur d'Alene gambling saloon, and for whom the officess and a posse have been looking for several days, some of them with the Intention of lynching, have been cap- tured by a constable and six assistants and taken to Spokane. One of the constable’s assistants, a young man, who leaves an aged mother and a bride of six months, was killed in the encounter. The circumstances surrounding the robbery of $7,000 in money and jewelry taken from a gambling hall, have led to shocking discoveries. A man known as “Funny Pete,” who was never known by any other name, was shot by another posse, and, a few minutes later, he died, saying there was a gang of them, and that during the last year they have robbed banks and stores at the points of pistols. Over $100,000 have been taken. His last words were: “I know we have killed nine women and many more men, and I hope God will forgive me.” There was great excitement in Coeur d’Alene, but the prisoners are considered safe in jail. One of the prisoners ad- mits that he burned up a roll of bills amounting to $600 when he was satisfied that they would be captured. ——oe. Public School Suggen To the Editor of The Evening Star: “I would like to propound a few inquiries through your paper for the especial consid- eration of the trustees of the public schocls, answers to which would, no doubt, be appreciated by thousands of families here in the District. I would like to know why children attending the public schools are so often required to go on ‘junketing trips’ to the ‘Zoo’ and other out of town places at an expense of at least 2 cents each trip? Are they for the purpose of instructing the children as to habits of animals or are they for the edification of the ycung lady teachers? In the school in which I have my ten-year-old boy attend- ing, trips are arranged weekly and pupils not bringing 20 or 2% ccnts in the morning are sent home, or to their parent’s place of business for the money and are told not to return without it. I recently moved from one part of the city to another and on Monday last entered my boy in a new school. Yesterday at 10 o'clock he was sent home for lic with which to purchase a writing book. Are not books furnished free to pupils below the seventh grade? The 15 cents was sent and today at ll o'clock he was again turned loose and tramped fifteen blocks to my office for 20 cents to pay expense of a’trip to the ‘Zoo.’ I am beginning to think that if these little excursions are to be kept up 1t would be cheaper and better to send children to a private school, where the ex- pense is known in advance and where chil- dren are kept at their studies instead of chasing around town for money to meet incidentals, such as cab fares, &c.

These latter, at any today because they have words, been wiped books. The territory of the ington today is practically that trict of Columbia. This fact in part by such provides for the extension of the H eB tt - H arises. With a population of more quarter of a million now within the District of Columbia, and with the evidences of present and future growth plainty display- ed on all sides, it is not remarkable that there should be a well-defined belief that in the course of the next decade or so there is to be a marvelous increase in the Population of the city, so that instead of Standing fourteenth in the list of cities in point of population, a place much nearer the top will be gained. As to the Street Raflways. will have, it is believed, a favorable ence not only on real estate values, but om the activity of the market. The most im- portant perhaps in this class are the vari- ous bills providing for the building of new street car lines or the extension of existing lines. As may be inferred, the bills ere mainiy intended to increase the present facilities and not so much to improve them. Many think a well-digested measure that is designed to give a more direct control of street car lines to the District Commie. sioners or the courts o: to any power able to keep them under control wi rity 4 step in the right direction. The need for something of this sort is so manifest that it goes without saying. In this city the cor- porations that have been given valuable franchises in using the streets of the city are practically independent of control. One result is seen in the complaints that the car service, with some exceptions, is about as bad as it can well be. However, a statement that would condemn the cars all the street railroad lines in Fn would be —— a the cable : well equipped respect, an: other roads ‘have put in service some handsome and comfortable cars. Redeeming a Locality. Sometimes it is possible to redeem a local- ity that has run down at the heels, but #% requires heroic measures. A good sugges- tion in this line is the purchase of the en- tire property in the affected region. If the deterioration is only along a single block, then the ground on each side of the street must be bought. The improvements stand- ing can be removed and the making over of the section will then depend on the will of the owner of the property. There are in- stances of property in an entire block that is valued at less money than the property on the adjoining block. The location is equally as good, and it is evident that the depreciation must be due to local causes within the block or square. If the squares are purchased outright, then the cause can be removed and the ground will be worth as much as that in the adjoining squares. In this way it is possible with the use of some capital to make a handsome profit if the conditions are as stated. At least the theory is a reasonable one, as it is based on the idea that the value of property depends largely on the character of the improve- ments. When these are inferior, while the adjoining squares are handsomely built up, it is natural to expect that the property valuations will be affected. It is not im- possible to find a block where property is valued at two or three dollars a foot, and adjoining it a block where a much smaller valuation prevails. By clearing off the low- priced block, it is thought that the ground could be placed on the market at the same figure as that of the high-priced neighboring property. — Ex-Speaker Reed says that the trouble with the Senate is that many of its mem- bers believe that they are aml to the Senate from sovereign states,
