Several days ago counsel for Charles Bev- eridge of the firm of Gardner & Beveridge, alleged policy backers at Jackson City, stated that his client would surrender and go into court for a hearing of the charge against: him, but he has not yet surren- dered. The case of Gardner and his son-in- law will be called in Judge Miller's court tomorrow, and it is thought that Beveridge is perhaps waiting to see how his partner fares before he concludes to take the chances. The officers are anxious to hear what Gardner will say in court about the business, for it 1s possible that he will make a clean breast of the policy business as af- fecting persons here and in Virginia. The activity of Policeman Bradley and the holding of the persons who go across the Georgetown bridge to play policy has re- duced the receipts of the Roslyn policy shops to the extent that four of them have quarters” and “Dark Secret” to give the Virginia gamblers an opportunity to play their nickels and dimes. —._—_ The Old Flower Man’s Will.

THE KAISER WELCOMED 10 VIENNA Gov. Leist of the Cameroons to Be Disciplined. GENERAL FOREIGN MATTERS PARIS, April 13—The police today made a startling discovery at Aubervilliers, a village five miles north of this city, which is noted for its sugar refineries and numer- ous other factories. For some time past the authorities have been aware that the anarchists, driven out of Paris, have sought refuge in various suburbs and villages near the capital. But, in the majority of cases, the foes of so- elety managed to bury themselves in such Places as at Aubervilliers, where the large majority of the population is composed of workingmen and others who, if not in sympathy with the anarchists, are not Ukely to betray their comrades because they advocated or were suspected of advo- cating advanced ideas in politics. But gradually the authorities closed around a number of suspected anarchists who were employed in the sugar refineries at Aubervilliers. The men for some time past have been closely watched. Acting upon instructions from the pre- fects of the Seine the detectives redoubled their exertions, and today it is announced that the police have discovered? hidden in a@ waterway under the road leading from Aubervilliers to Ccurnewue, twelve tin boxes, filled with the most dangerous kinds of explosives, a case containing twelve — of poudre verte, twenty pounds of lynamite cartridges, a quantity of ‘scrap steel end hob nails and a reversible bomb ready for use. In consequence of this discowery the po- lice determined to arrest a number of the suspected workmen, but the news of the discovery of the store of. explosives spread so rapidly that several of the suspected men succeeded in disappearing. The police, however, will make a number of arrests. A later dispatch from Aubervilliers says that the police have already taken into custody several suspects and that it is be- lieved a very dangerous conspiracy has been nipped in the bud. WELCOMED TO VIENNA, Emperor W: im Cheered by the Austrinn People. VIENNA, April 13.—Emperor William ar- rived here at 11 o'clock this morning, and was welcomed at the Southern railroad sta- tion by Emperor Francis Joseph, ten arch- dukes, the heads of the civil and military departments, the municipal authorities and by the German embassy and its staff. Emperor William was most enthusiasti- cally cheered by the populace and seemed | highly pleased at the reception accorded him. Emperor Francis Joseph and the Aus- trian archdukes wore Prussian uniforns and the insignia of the black eagle. Em- peror William wore the uniform of: the sev- enth regiment of Austro-Hungarian hus- sars. ‘The two imperial parties drove, in open | carriages, to the Imperial Hofburg, which has been the residence of the Austrian princes since the thirteenth century. The route to the Hofburg was lined by troops and everywhere great crowds of people were gathered and cheered heartily as the cor- tege passed. Upon arriving at the Hofburg, Emperor William was welcomed by the ladies of the imperial family, and later he was visited by the premier and all the ministers, THE CAMEROONS TROUBLE. Gov. Leist to Be Disciplined on His Return to Germany. BERLIN, April 13.—In the reichstag to- day Baron Marschall von Bieberstein, sec- retary of state for foreign affairs in reply to a question as to whether it was true that the report from Councillor Rose, in regard to the ill-treatment of natives in the Cameroons, West Africa, contained charges gravély affecting Gov. Leist, chan- cellor of the government of the Cameroons, admitted that the report did contain such charges. The foreign secretary added that Gov. Leist, as a result of the report, had been relieved from his position in’ the Cameroons, and that disciplinary measures would be teken against him so soon as he returned to Germany. REBEL VESSEL REPULSED. Brazilian Insurgents at Rio Grande Beaten Off. LONDON, April 13.—The Brazilian min- ister in this city has communicated the following dispatch to the Associated Press: “RIO DE JANEIRO, April 12.—The in- surgent vessels have been repulsed in the bay of Rio Grande, and have escaped to the open sea.

NEW YORK, April 13.—The life saving | station this morning repgrted a schooner | ashore on the point of the hook, which proved to be schooner John D.

The tug Leonard Richards began pulling on _her, the wrecking tug I. J. Merritt and three other tugs standing by ready to render assistance if called on. As the sea was very smooth this morning, there was no danger. The crew remained on board. The schooner was hauled off short- ly before 11 o'clock. She is apparently un- injured. ——$—_ AS TO THE TARIFF BILL, Manufacturers Want It Defeated at Once or Delayed Until Next Winter. Senators are getting bushels of letters from manufacturers of both parties, in all lines of business, and from all sections of the country, urging that, if the tariff bill is not defeated at once, it be delayed until after the congressional elections in No- vember. The reason given for claiming the delay is that the spring elections indicate the election of a republican Congress,*and the consequent repeal of this law if now | enacted. This would, they contend, .mean that business could not adjust itself to the! new law, and that there would be two years more of depression in all lines of business, money being generally withheld | from enterprises. As a purely business | proposition they urge that the welfaze of | the country demans that there should be | some sort of certainty that if the law is | enacted it will stand for a while, and that, | therefore, the politics of the next Congress should be known before the bill is enacted into a law. In deference to this den cans intend to try tu ¢ d the republi- action on tt fied that they satis! t it on a direct vote. can de might be again in appear to | star of the fact that the Jency will be in the rats during the 3.

There was noth- ing in the incident which reflected in the least upon the honor or integrity of the wo- nan or which affected the iaw in this case in the least. Here, as in the case of the Owen Robinson letters, Mr. Butterworth had talked knowir of there being some- thing there; he wasn’t sure just what, but that there must be something. He won- dered what Wm. Butterworth of sacred memory would think if he could look down upon the efforts of Benjamin Butterworth to insinuate from incidents like these the wherewithal to blast the reputation of a woman. ° The Rodes incident could also be disposed of in like manner, Mr. Wilsen said. This young girl was ambitious for an education ‘and was desirous of possessing a diploma. She made a contract with Mr. Rodes in 1888 and the defense had endeavored to show that from that time on she was the mistress of that man. The defendant himself had stated upon the stand that he told the plaintiff that the woman who had been the mistress of Rodes and then his own was not a fit woman to sit at his table and preside over his home. Mr. Wilson then reviewed the circum- stances of the plaintiff's first meeting with Rodes. He called the special attention of the jury to the date cf the meeting, the sum- mer of 188%, And yet they had’ asked the jury to believe that in June, July and Au- gust of that same year she was living in the house of Lena Singleton the mis- tress of James C. Rodes. Mr. Butter- worth had urged upon them to consider at all times the reasonable probabilities of the case. He urged them to do so, too, in the light of all these facts and asked them to say whether it was likely or probable that such a condition of affairs ever could have existed. If there were no other evi- dence ,bearing upon this incident all the insinuations as to the impropriety of the relations existing between the plaintiff and Rodes would be disposed of. It was out of the question for the jury to believe this man would place in a house of {ll fame a woman whom he intended to send to school and then to make his wife. “Why, gentlemen, if old James Rodes should come back from the grave and tell you such a story as that it would be rough on Rodes. That is all. As to Brand and Kaufman's Testi- mony. “And upon what do they attempt to bol- ster up such a story? Why, some one who is a good wader has waded around in the slums of Lexington and found John Brand. Gentlemen, John Brand brands himself and I would not dignify his testimony by re- peating it to you. You know of what man- her it was. “With all due respect to my brother But- terworth I must say that of all the stu- pendous, ineffable, inexcusable and remark- able examples of cheek I ever heard of their statement that the plaintiff ought to have gone to Lexington to exhibit herself to these people for the purpose of being identified is the most stupendous. And then this expert wader dipped into the slop barrels of the slums and found Hiram Kaufman, and this sweet pair have testi- fied that the plaintiff was in the house of Lena Singleton. Why, gentlemen, the chief of police of Lexington and others who know have testified that there has besn no such person as Lena Singleton in that city since 1875. “When the defendant is compelled by the exigencies of the case to seek out such tes- timony as this, what do you think, gentle. men of the jury, as to the case? They have talked about the leaven of indecency that we are spreading through the institution of this suit, When they are compelled to pro- duce testimony that they know ts perjured and to cast insinuations upon the character of this girl that they know are not true, what do you think of the leaven then? The burden of proof is upon the defendant to prove the bad character of the plaintiff. I ask you, gentlemen, have they done it? The Mock Murriage Incident. “So with the incident of the mock mar- riage. There was nothing improper in the occurrence itself, but the defense, for the purpose of this suit, must needs invest It with indecency and lasciviousness. The burden ts upon the defense of proving this, Now, let’s see how they have done this, “The marriage took place on Christmas day. They say there was egg-nogg to drink. My only surprise is that there was nothing r, for, remember, this took place in Kentucky. “T alw: thought that Bourbon was the wine of the country. Alex. Julian says she was married to Owen Tinsley. The latter says she was married to Alex. Julian. Alex. was probably drunk. They have not shown anything criminal. They have sim- ply implied that there were in the mind of the plaintiff already sown the seeds of vice. Well,what if they were? I'm going to prove that if they were they were developed and brought to fruition, not by Alex, Julian, but by Mr. Breckinridge himself. “Mr. Butterworth asked of me yesterday, in a dramatic menner, why we did not bring on Squire Tinsley or some other who was cognizant of the facts to testify in this Mir, Butterworth has thrown down the gauntlet. I gladly pick it up.” Some Sensntional Remarks. Then came some. sensational remarks. Mr. Wilson charged that the defendant Fad notified the plaintiff that they were going And | to take the deposition of Squire Tinsley and } then had failed to do it. Mr. Farrell, he said, then wanted to take the depositions himself, but he could not get a court official | or notary public in the city of Lexington to take the depositions, and he had to go to | Frankfort for the purpose. Mr. Wilson charged the defense with act- ing in bad faith. Mr. Butterworth claimed that Mr. Wilson had not explained the situation with due regard for the truth,and Mr. Wilson insisted that he had. This little thunderstorm blew over quickly, how- ever. ‘And it is on such testimony as thi said Mr. Wilson, “that ask you to blast the character of a woman.” Coming down to the testimony of Rozell, Mr. Wilson said that he might dismiss him as another lawyer once dismissed another perjured witness with the remark, “God have mercy on his soul,” but he would con- sider it briefly. And he did. He characterized Rozell’s testimony as to what occurred at Wesleyan College as “one of the meanest and most transparent lies ever told upon the witness stand.” His story had been totally discredited by Mrs. Brown and by other witnesses and by the very probabilities of the case. Mr. Wilson’s speech was still in progress when The Star's report closed. a LATEST HAWAIIAN NEWS, The President Sends to Congress An- other Letter From Mr. Willis. The President today sent to Congress another letter in the Hawaiian correspon- dence, being Minister Willis’ recital of events on the island up to the latter part of March.

A special meeting of the board of Com- missioners was called this morning to hear the representatives of the Engle Sanitary and Cremation Company set forth the ad- vantages of that system for the destruc- tion of garbage, and to listen to its proposi- tion to do the work of collection and de- struction in Washington. Mr. W. F. Morse, on the part of the com- pany, said that the total destruction of garbage by fire was the only practical way of disposing of the problem. The system which he represented claimed primarily a thorough destruction of the garbage in a sanitary manner with the absence of foul odors. This was the highly desired object sought by all reduction and destruction plants, and he had no hesitancy in stating that the Engle company could do this, and more. He exhibited plans of a model cre- matory and was asked to describe the sys- tem. After a general description of the plant, Mr. Morse stated his company would be willing to do the work of collection and de- struction in a satisfactory manner for $2.50 per ton. As it is estimated that 25,000 tons of garbage are collected annually, this would make the annual cost $62,500. In presenting these figures the company count- ed on the destruction of the garbage with- in the city limits. He did not believe his company would undertake to transport it outside of the District. He promised thor- ough satisfaction if the Commissioners would enter into a contract with his com- pany for the performance of the work. The Commissioners, after hearing the statements, requested the company to sub- mit another proposition covering a period of three years, with the extension of ten years more should the results be satisfac- tory. oo CITIZEN REDSTONE NOW. He Says No Crooks Will Be Enrolled With Coxey’s Army. Everything was quiet and subdued at the commonweal headquarters in Rechabites’ Hall today. The Primrose league, which has been occupying the place during the daytime since its release from arrest, was conspicuous by its absence, and Citizen Redstone, a tall young man with an un- mistakable western appearance, and an individual who has a scheme to reform the banking institutions of the country, in the shape ef a bill, which he can get no one to introduce in Congress, were the sole occu- pants of the apartment. Citizen Redstone said there was nothing new to be given out for the edification of the public regarding the movement today, and tore himself away to keep an engagement at the Capitol, stating, as he went, that there was no coolness existing between the members of the Primrose party and himself, and add- ing that no crooks or bad characters need apply for membership in the commonweal, as all such persons would be rigidly exclud- ed, and none but upright, honest and peace- able American citizens would be enrolled. Ribbon Weavers to Come Here. The striking ribbon weavers in New York are arranging to march on foot,1,000 strong, to Washington. The weavers at Paterson have arranged to meet them outside of the city and escort them through the streets with a band of fifty pieces of music. On account of the inclement weather they have delayed the project until Monday. It is proposed on the arrival of the weavers to gather as many recruits as possible and | continue the march on to Washington to join Coxey's army.

He presented a bill to the Senate today, atthe request of the American Anti-Usury Asso- ciation of Catasauqua, Pa., providing for the issue of treasury notes to be loaned to states, counties, townships, municipalities, incorporated towns, villages and individual citizens. The bill provides for the issue of $2,500,000,000 in treasury notes. The presses of the bureau of engraving are to be put in motion, and, lo, the money is to be! The notes are to be issued in denominations of ene to a hundred dollars. It shall be paid gut by the national government for all na- tional expenses, and shall be furnished the states, counties, &c., through agents sta- tioned at the different money-order offices. “Said security,” the bill provides, “to be & non-interesting bearing bond, on time not to exceed twenty-five years, and to be re- tired by installments of five dollars per one hundred dollars annually, or in any amount in excess of this, at the option of the giver. The bond not to exceed one-half the as- sessed value of the property on which it is based.” Land to Be Free. The second section is as follows: “The buying and selling the natural elements from which all wealth ts created by the labor of man—the land—has been and is now the second greatest existing evil.” The bill does not mention the first. “Therefore be it enacted that throughout the United States and territories, &c., said element—the land— shall be free of any price whatever: the buildings and whatsoever is the product of labor be bought and sold; the land to be transferred without price,’ and the amount limited to actual need and not to exceed 100 acres in any case, every acre to be in pro- duetive use of some kind, and no one to be allowed to own more than they can keep in a proper state of cultivation or productive use of some kind.” The third section provides for the ap- pointment of assistant postmasters at every money order office in the country. These Positions might become sinecures were it not. that they are to be expected to see that the wonderful provisions of section 2 are strict- ly carried into effect. ' ————_-e+______ DISTRICT IN CONGRESS. Church Orphanage Protest. Senator Harris today presented the pro- test of the trustees of the church orphan- age of St. John’s parish against any legis- lative action that would withhold from the charitable institution under their charge | the sum heretofore annually appropriated in aid of its maintenance. This protest had been referred from the Senate to the District committee, and thence to the Com- missioners, who had sent it to Col. Tracy, the superintendent of charities.
