TO PRESERVE FORESTS. An Interesting Con ion Opened at Albany, N. Y. There began in the assembiy chamber of the capitol, at Albany, N. joint meeting of the ‘Associaticn, the New York State Forestry Association, the Adirondack Park Associa- tion, and the various local forestry associa- tions of the state of New York. ‘The firs: session was called to order at @ o'clock with prayer by Bishop Doane, and then Gov. Flower, who sat on the platform with Secretary Morton, made an address. Mr. Morton responded briefly to the ad- Gress of welcome of Gov. Flower. He com- plimented New York state upon its activity in forest protection, and then length discussed the plans of the American For- estry Association,and the interest the move- ment was creating in all the states of the Union. He alluded to the growta of the Various state associations, and to the fact that the majo of states now had their forest commissions to protect the timber Jands. He believed that a great deai of the commercial and agricultural prosperity of the countr: due, and would be cue, to the preservation of our forest iands. The state of New York, he thought, was undoubtedly the leader in this movement 4s indeed it should be, because of all the states east of the Mississipp! it possessed the finest forest lands. The session of the evening closed with an interesting illustrated lecture by Berthokdi E. Ferno f of the division of estry, Agri Department. The lec- ture was ill. with stereypticon views, and was entitled “The Battle of the Forest. The sessions today will consist mainly of the reading of papers, including, in the af- ternoon, a discussion on the Adirondack roblem. In the evening Dr. Loomis of New York will lecture on “The Influence of Forests on Pulmonary Diseases.” Bishop Doane and Dr. Martin Burke will also be heard and the session will close with an illustrated lecture by Prof. J. T. Rothrock, secretary of the forestry commission of Pennsylvania. ee Recovered From the Kearsarge. Two British schooners, loaded with arms and stores recovered from the wreck of the U. S. cruiser Kearsarge, have left the sce of the wreck for the island of Grand Ca man. It is not known what disposition they will make of their cargo. A consid- erable quantity of arms and siores, rescued by er ves: have been landed at the islands of Old Providence and San Andres. ‘The arms were taken possession of by the Colombian government, and the stores were sold at auction. The position of the Ke: sarge on Roncador reef has not changed.

E with OUR DIRECTIONS LIST OF UNFORTUNATES Some Sad Cases Recorded in the Police Oourt Today. | Nearly All Were Caused by Excessive Drinking—The Court's Opinion of { Tempters — The Cases. Monday was pension day, and it neces- sarily follows that Judge Kimball's work | will increase for a few days at least. On such days there are always a number of hangers on about the agency, and as early as 7 o'clock in the morning the saloons are | | well patronized in anticipation of the * money the pensioners are to get. James Ford, a good representative of the bad lot, was leader of the procession today. He is well known in court and police cir- cles as Jesse MeCoy’s husband. Jessie, or “Mrs. James Ford,” as she now calls fer- self, is now on the farm. When .the hus- band got his money Monday afternoon it was too late for him to do anything ex- cept get drunk, and yesterday morning he paid a social visit to his wife on the farm and gave her $30. ‘Then he paid visits to other places, and in some way unknown to himself he got his | face and eyes so badly bruised that he look- ed like he had participated in an athletic contest for gain. Jim was in need of both medical and spiritual treatment this morning, and when | arraigned he said he was guilty. “But, judge.” sald the prisoner, “if you let me go until later in the day I'll see my wife and get the $5 from her.” Where is your wife?” the judge asked. he’s down on the farm,” answered | Ford; “I went to see her yesterday, ard gave her the $30, intending to take her out “Well, Ford,” said the judge, I've trusted | you before and you paid, and so you may have until this afternoon to pay your fine. When a man acts honorably in such mat- ters the court will always help him out.’ When Berry Barnes, an old colored citl- | | zen, is at his home in the county, in the | vicinity of Anacostia, he is a great church man, but when he gets in the “Division” he’s “one of the boys.” | Last night he was decidedly the latter, ; and when the “Division” blackberry and | gin took effect he stood on the corner and mingled his religion with boisterous lan- guage. | “He seemed to have a religious manta,” | said Officer Boyce. “When 1 arrested him | he was drunk.” “Only had one glass of beer,” said the | prisoner, “and I was singing when the po- liceman arrested me. Lawyer Moss, who vouched for the re- ligious part of Barnes’ life, asked what he was singing, and the latter replied: “Il was singing ‘Glory to God.’ ” Counsel argued that there might be some mistake; that the man may have been la-. boring under religious excitement. “But when religious excitement, call ft, is mingled with whisk: court, “there's no religion in it Barnes was fined the usual amount. Another Mistake. | John W. Wallace, a colored man, made the same plea. He, too, thought the po- | liceman was mistaken about nis being in- | toxicated. “I wasn't drunk,” he said. “He was beastly drunk,” said the cfficer, nd was swearing.” “How about your swearing?” Judge ball inquired of the prisoner. “If I swore,” answered the man, “it was a mistake. I had a misery in my side, | | and if I did really swear that was the | cause of it.” H said the court, “I can’t punish the pain. You will have to pay the penalty; % or go down for fifteen days.” Oliver Calhoun, a one-legged citizen. who was found on the street under the influ- uor, was charged with vagrancy. said the judge, “one case of in- toxication does not make a vagrant of a man. Dismissed.” Policeman Greer was in court today, as usual, and he had a man under arrest, but there was nothing against him. Albert | Madison was the name of the youns col- ored man against whom vagrancy was charged. e ‘The policeman had seen him about the streets doing nothing, he said. “And,” he added, “I never saw him looking for work.” He may look for work every day and you not know it,” said the judge. “Madison here once before, another officer, “and he was let so. “Because there was nothing against him,” arked the court. “Dismissed.” You are charged with being disorder! read the clerk to a colored man, whose name was given as William Jones. re you guilty or not guilty?” he asked. es,” he answered. “I reckon the po- liceman wouldn't arrested me unless I was } ' as you said the Kim- said re Benjamin Smith, | colored man, | Washington, a respectable young whose home is in South had a sad experience last right because of the fact that there is a grade crossing at New Jersey avenue southeast.

She was required to give bond in the, sum of $50 or go down for ninety days. Henry Lindner and John Lor young men who had no bromo-seltzer to cure | that tired feeling, sat on a bench in a public park yesterday to let the sunlight cure their headache. They were arrested. “Lindner’s father died some time ago,” said an officer, “and with the money left after the funeral expenses had been paid he has been on a drunk.” i “i'll leave here and go elsewhere to look for work if you let me xo,” said the pris- oner. “I've been in trouble often enough and now I want to leave. “And I’ go with him, panion.

Dan Lyons’ mother was in court to look said his com- , after her boy. He was arrested on the rail- road track at 3 o'clock this morning. He was under the influence of liquor, and the officer said he used profanity. “I didn’t use any profane language,” said Lyons, “but the policeman shook me and tried to make me swear. 1 stopped work at 12 o'clock, and was on when the officer arrested me.” “Where di@ you get anything to drink after midnight?” “On Pennsylvania avenue.

Further Dissensions to Drawn and Undrawn Poultry, The Commissioners do not agree on the subject of the relative merits as food of drawn and undrawn_poult: Several days ago, it will be recalled, the District chemist, under direction of the health officer, made an investigation of the subject. The results were, briefly, that undrawn poultry was more wholesome than drawn poultry and kept longer. The | recommendation was that a regulation be pessed positively prohibiting the sale of poultry that has not been kept from food at least twenty-four hours before ktilling. All undrawn poultry without empty crops should be condemned as unfit yey é Commissioner Ross was in favor of such @ regulation and approved the recommen- dation of the health officer. Capt. Powell, however, dissented and indorsed the pa- pers as follows: “I do not approve of the conclusion here- in that ‘undrawn poultry will keep much longer than drawn.’ “Such general conclusion is made from a single comparative test, which may not be and probably is not sufficient. “Even the result of that single test, ‘as accepted by the health officer and the chemist of his department, does not seem to be warranted by the record of the ob- servations, since the conditions of the two turkeys were dissimilar otherwise than in being drawn or undrawn. Thus, the undrawn turkey was out of food for twenty-four hours before killing, and that may have been the reason for the longer preservation of that turkey. The; record also says of the undrawn turkey that ‘the intestines were normal in ap- pearance, as were also the liver and heart, showing evidently that the bird had enjoy ed good health,’ and also ‘that the internal orgats were in as good a state of pres. vation as one would expect to find in a| turkey just killed.” The longer time of the | preservation of the undrawn turkey may | have come from its better physical condi- tion at the time of killing. I think the data ure altogether too meager to warrant any regulation about the sale of poultry, as recommended by the health officer. A notice to dealers that undrawn poultry with filled crops is deemed unfit for food is all that appears warranted by present information.” a Enoch Pratt, founder of the Pratt Free Public Library of Baltimore, was given a complimentary banquet Saturday night at the Maryland Club, in recognition of his long and useful services to the banking in- terests of the city and state. < (my Lf s [ii Fvery one knows our victuals are composed of differ- ent things called food element Preuty of food xnd | to have it digested well ig all that is | Sometimes it does not cared for by the majority. digest well.—Then comes dyspepsia; relief ts | wanted. ‘That fs given by JOHANN HOFF'S Malt | Fx It acts on the food, makes it easy to | digest.

The ball penetrated his kidneys and he cannot re- cover, He is insensible now, but before he became unconscious he stated that he did not have a revolver and did not do any of the shooting. He says that he felt the bul- let and started to go home, but fell by the roadside and was carried home by friends. In a darkened room in his family resi- dence Hes the body of Robert Ross, who left his nome in the morning to aid in the election of the candidate that the republi- can party had indorsed. In a room in the Same house lies his brother William, serious- | ly, perhaps mortally, wounded, and in an- other part of the city lies wounded a noto- rious rough and ward heeler, “Bat’’ Shea. The foliowing is the account given by bystanders of the tragedy at the polls, more briefly described in yesterday's Star: About ) o'clock a gang of at least tif- teen strangers stood waiting to vote, while men whose names were on the poll list, both democrats and republicans, were crowded away. Robert Ross objected to this and had some words with “Bat” Shea. These two stories of the affair must both be told, be- cause, as yet, there is no evidence to show which one is true. ‘The police say, from what they can gafh- er, that John Hayner, a candidate for ward constable on the Whalen ticket, attempted to enter the polling booth of the thirteenth ward shortly after 12 o'clock. He was stopped in the doorway by John McGough, a Molloy man, who told him he had no right there. McGough said that Hayner drew a billy and attempted to hit him, the weapon being an iron stove-mounter’s wrench, which was found by Detective Markham and is now in the possession of the police. McGough said that as Hayner struck at him he clinched him, and at that moment felt a sharp pain in his back, and, turning, saw a smoking revolver in the hands of John Ross, a brother of the dead man. The Rosses then pitched onto him, and as he struggled to his feet John Boland began to fire from a revolver. The police say that there is every indica- tion that Boland is the man who fired the deadly shots. The revolver taken from him had four empty chambers, corresponding in number to the shots fired. Bolan, who was immediately was a Whelan watcher. The story told by the surviving Rosses is to the effect that “Bat” Shea was the arrested, upon that statement the police put him under arrest, although he is badly wounded. ‘They say that the trouble began in the polling booth, where a crowd of Molloy repeaters, headed by Jeremiah Cleary and Shea, attempted to vote. When the vote was challenged the men went outside and immediately started an argument with the Rosses. Suddenly the crowd surged forward in an shots Wm. Ross, who was injured, says that he saw Shea tire the shot that killed his broth- | er, but he is not sure that the firing was commenced before that shot was fired. When the shots were fired Robert Ross fell to the roadway, and his brother Will- jam cried “I'm shot.” Then the firing ceased as suddenly as it had commenced. Excitement was so in- tense that no effort was made to arrest anybod: Robert Ross was unconscious, and men carried him into a house. Dr. Rogers was summoned, but before he reached the scene the wounded man was dead. He lived abcut five minutes after he was shot. The bullet entered the brain from the back part of the head. William Ross, brother of Robert, was cared for by friends, who took him to the residence of Rev. Joseph Zweifel on 6th avenue. There he was cared for by Dr. who said that the bullet entered the neck just below the base of the skull, and had imbedded itself in the muscles. He coud not say whether or not the wound wouid be fatal, but was positive that it was a dangerous one. Mr. Ross is weak from loss of blood. “Bat” Shea was wounded, a bullet grazing the skull and making an ugly scalp wound. Shea mede his way unaided to Dunlop's saloon, corner 6th avenue and Dow street, where he was attended by Dr. Fisher. Shea’s wound is said not to be dangerous. A peculiarity about the wounds of the men is that each one was shot in the back of the head. McGough, id instant revolvers were drawn and ed. | as has beer stated, was shot in the back and is very badly hurt. He in- sisted that John Ross and Boland started the shooting. John Ress said: “I did not fire a pistol. It was murder—deliberate murder—and it Was premeditated. Only about an hour and a half before this man struck my brother William full in the face.
