A Suggestion About the M Street Market From the Citizens’ Associa- tion—A Windfall of Fortune. The srrall streams near the head of the Chesapeake and Ohio canal have been con- siderably swollen by the rains, but no dam- age to the canal has been repcrted. Re- ports from dam No. 4, eighty-five miles up, state that the water in the great trade trough has risen about three feet. This is a healthy and needed increase in the depth, as for some time the water has been so low that heavy traffic has been interfered with. It was found necessary during the last week or two of the drought to lighten the cargoes from fifteen to twenty tons, and even then th boats could not get through the Cumberland level until the canal com- Fany’s big pumps had been put to work taking water from the river. The banks of the canal are, no doubt, all solid, in spite of the rains, as a report of any defect weuld have been sent to headquarters at once by some of the company’s representatives scat- tered all along tke line. ‘The coal receipts yesterday in Georgetown were smaller than they have been for some time, the rain interfering somewhat with the boats’ movements. The M Street Market. The following letter, signed by the execu- tive committee of the West Washington €ltizens’ Association, Dr. L. W. Ritchie, chairman, was today forwarded to the Commissioners: “We would respectfully call yc ur attention to the present opportuni- ty afforded in the reconstruction of the M street market house of correcting a great evil that has existed in the past, and one that promises to become much greater in the future, owing to the passage of the cars of the Washington and Georgetown Rail- road Company to the Aqueduct bridge, viz.: ‘The crowded and impassable condition of M street adjacent to the market, caused by the accumulation of country wagors and tem- porary store fixtures at that point. We would suggest that the portion of the mar- ket to be improved be reconstructed with a wide pessageway down the center and open sides, so as to admit of country wagons be- ing backed under such shelter, thereby af- fording great protection to them and also to purchasers from the inclemency of the wea her, the rear portion of said structure ng found amply suflicient for the pur- Poses of the present regular stall owners.” The Lock Tender’s Good Fortune. It has now been estabiished beyond a doubt that the good fortune reported to have befallen the children and heirs of John McCaffrey, the canal boatman who Georgetown suddenly in 1852, and made a fortune in the grain business in Chicago is a solid reality, and not «n unfounded ro- mance. Seaman, the lock tender on the Chesapeake and Ohio canal who married the eldest daughter of AfcCaffrey, and whose three living children by her are heirs to her share, has placed his ciaim in the hands of C. F. T. Beale. A letter received day before yesterday from the Chicago law- yers who first brought the death of Mc- Caftrey to the notice of the heirs, states that at the lowest estimate the estate of the deceased ts worth $400,000. Mr. Beale, as a representative of Seaman's children, will leave in a day or two for Chicago. Seaman is still in charge of his canal lock at 20th street. The present Mrs. Seaman is @ second wife. The eldest daughter of Mc- Caffrey had seven children, but all died but Arlington Cattle Market. At the Arlington live stock yards Mon- day 115 cattle were up, and sold to butch- ers as follows: Best, 4 to 4 1-4c.; good, 3 3-4 to 3 7-Sc.; medium, 3 1-4 to 3 3-8e.; com- mon, 2 1-2 to 3c. Seven hundred and twenty-two sheep and lambs: Lambs, 3 1-4 to 4 1-4c.; sheep, 2 1-2 to 3 1-4c.; calves, 4 to 5 1-2c. Ten cows and calves sold from $20 to $45 per head. State of the market fair for all kinds of stock. Notes of Interest. James M. Green and Henry C. Stewart, ir., trustees, have sold to Ida C. Six, for $5,275, lot 203, in Detweller’s sub of square 96, being on the north side of P street between 27th and 28th streets, improved by a new two-story and basement dwelling. Later the party of the second part trans- ferred the property for $5,600 to Josephine R, Shelley. There are three sets of surveyors at work near the Aqueduct bridge, one running lines for the propored Great Falls road, one making preliminary arrangements for the establishment of grade, ete., on Prospect avenue between 36th and 38th, and the third establishing private lines for vicinity property holders.

Askew was the leader of a short procession of prisoners in Judge Kim- ball’s court this morning, and his nervous condition was evidence that he had indulged in something stronger than water. He plead guilty to a charge of having been disorderly on North Capitol street. “But,” he said, “I would like to speak to the court.” “What is it?” the judge asked. “I would, like time to pay my fine,” said the nervous man. “I've been unfortunate enough to be out of work this summer, and I went to work Monday. Last night I met some friends and took several drinks, but I hépe your honor will not lock me up, for my family need my services.” “And so you got drunk last night?” queried the court. “Yes, sir.” ‘Ard now that you a thinking of your family.’ “si > I'm unfortunate, sober you are said the pris- oner. “Not unfortunate,” said the judge. “A man who goes out and gets drunk is not unfortunate.” “He spent all his money in a saloon,” said the policeman who arrested him, “and then he was thrown out.” “That's the way saloon keepers usually do,” added the judge. The prisoner made a good showing, and the judge trusted him until next week to pay the fine. James Woodward and James Smallwood, colored men, who were loud and boisterous in a house on Ist street last night, next ap- peared. They said guilty, and were fined the usual amount. Dan Reed, a colored man, who is captain of a sand scow, next appeared, and he ex- pecie: ced a little difficulty in the use of the word “loaded.” Withcut being introduced to the court he started out by saying: “When I came to town and got unloaded I went out and got Icaded.” No explanation was necessary when Reed told the court that he was the captain of a sind scow. It was the scow and not him- self that was unloaded. The court having imposed a fine, Dan asked for credit, but there being no one to vouch for hiv he had to step back. ‘Twas a colored boy, your honor, who threw a stone at me,” said an Irish-Amer- ican witness on the stand. ‘Do you know the boy? den't know his name.” ppalehi, you know him if you should see im? the court asked. “I would, your honor.’ He looked around and pointed out Thos. Williams as the offender. “'Twan't me,” said Tom. “And, judge, your honor, I'll give my personal bonds that I ain't guilty.” “But there are two witnesses who saw you throw the stone,” explained the court. “I can’t help it, judge, I ain't guilty. A fine of $ or fifteen days was imposed. Rose James appeared, said guilty to a charge of profanity, and went down. Henry Brown, an ino*fensive colored man, was in a shed in rear of another man’s dwelling last night, and because he was in there he said guilty to a charge of va- grancy. His explanation showed that his plea was not well founded, and he was re- leased. Policeman Barney did not have a good word to say about Shott’s alley when he gave evidence in the case of Julia Graham and Lillie Carroll. These colored girls live in the alley, where many of the residents are Italian peanut venders and street mu- siclans, Last night the girls were standing in the alley talking, and the policeman also saw some dancing. “A peliceman in uniform can never get in the alley in time to arrest the disorderly persons,” said the officer, “but last night they thought I would only warn them, as 1 had done before, and so they did not run.” He said that a petition is to be sent to the Commissioners by citizens asking for the detail of a policeman at the mouth of the alley. It also appeared in the testimony that the “flying horses” are not far from where these girls were arrested, and they attract the boys and girls from other neighbor- hoods, The girls said this was their first arrest, and the judge released them on their own bonds. Rose Payne, a colored resident of George- town, was disorderly on the street yester- day, and now the District will feed her for two weeks. >. GERMAN PYTHIANS PROTEST. Action of Occasin Lodge in Regard to the German Ritual. The majority of the members of Occasia Lodge, No. 18, K. of P., attended a meeting last evening at Knights of Pythias Hall, 904 Pennsylvania avenue, called to discuss the abolition of the German ritual by the Supreme Lodge at the recent encampment. The meeting was in session until almost midnight and was stormy throughout. A number of members talked at length and said things not at all complimentary to the supreme body. After a couple of hours had passed in this manner a resolution of pro- test was offered expressing the disapproval of Occasia Lodge at the action of the Su- preme Lodge in regard to the German ritual. The resolution was passed unani- mously. ‘The question of whether or not Occasia Lodge shall pay over to the executive com- mittee of the District jurisdiction Its sub- scription and personal contributions al- ready collected for the Pythian encamp- ment was also discussed at length. Dur- ing the arguments on this question the meeting gradually thinned out and the final vote was 12 to 8 against paying any- thing toward the expenses of the encamp- ment. A number of the members stated, how- ever, that the matter will be brought up at the ‘next meeting of the lodge and that the money in question will be undoubtedly turned over to the Pythian executive com- mittee, which {s about $2,500 short. Five lodges are as yet delinquent, and each of them will be visited by Past Grand Chan- cellor Richard Goodhart, chairman of the Pythian executive committee, who will use every effort to have a complete settlement of all indebtedness made. is annoying and offensive.

New National Theater.—Bizet’s charming opera “Carmen” was given by the Tavary company at the New National Theater last night, and in spite of some disadvantages the performance was enjoyed by a good audience. In the title role Thea Dorre made a distinct hit, singing and acting the part with a grace and dramatic effect that placed her at once in the affections of her audience. Her voice is musical in tone, of good range, and, although not strong in the lower register, it is sympathetic and well trained. She sang with spirit and fully deserved the applause her efforts re- ceived. She has an agreeable personality, being young and quite pretty, and she is an admirable actrees. Mme. Tavary took the small part of Michela, and was only seen in two acts, but she did her: work in the most artistic manner, paying us much at- tention to all the details as if she were singing a leading role. Mr. Payne Clark was suffering from a very bad cold, and so could not do justice either to himself or to the part of Don Jose. Mr. Mertens sang Escamelio in the most spirited man- ner, and appeared to much better advan- tage than on the night previous. He fully deserved the encore he received for his singing of the Torreador song. -The chorus was good and the orchestra, ing some uncertainties, was effective. Tonight there will be a double bill, “I Pagliacci” and “The Cavalleria Rusticana.” Kernan’s Lyceum Theater.—Manager Ker- nan’s attraction for next week will be the Harry Morris’ burlesquers, headed by the German comedian, Mr. Harry Morris. he organization is composed of thirty beauti- ful women, and a number of clever come- dians.

The opening farce, entitled “‘The Dutch Crook,” is bright and witty throughout and intro- duces a number of new and catchy songs. The feature of the entertainment will be the original burletta, “A Tempting Town,” showing to advantage all of the ladies of the company in gorgeous and natty cos- tumes, especially in the scene of the ar- tist’s studio, where ten shapely women ap- pear as modelm a Take notice of peremptory auction sale of work and driving horses tomorrow, Thurs- day morning, 10 o'clock, at the Bazaar, #40 La. ave.—Advt.
