Dr. Richard Lalor Burtsell ar- rived at New York from Rome yesterday, with what would seem, if judged from the doctor’s words, to be an important message to the Catholics of America. There ts soon to be established permanently in this coun- try a tribunal, to be known as the apos- tolic delegation, to which all appeals from the Roman Catholic clergy of the United States must be made, and whose decisions are to be as final as if made by the pope himself. The personnel of the tribunal is not disclosed, and Dr. Burtsell refuses to shed any new light upon a number of mat- ters which for some time have agitated Catholic circles. The new tribunal, the doctor said, would be a final tribunal of appeal for the priests. it would be organized in such a manner a3 to insure justice. “Did you bring the papers authorizing the establishment of this tribunal?” was asked. “The authorization will be given to Mon- signor Satolli.”" “Will Monsignor Satolli be the head of the delegation?” “I will let Satolli answer that.” “Will your old parishioners soon see you as rector of a church in this city?” “I ask that the disposition of my affairs be left entirely to the apostolic delegation.” “How will the priests of this country re- ceive the new order of things?” “The great body of them will receive it gladly. The great body of the church will accept it as in accord with the laws of the church.” wi Archbishop Corrigan be called to e? “I decline to discuss personal affairs of that nature.” “How soon be organized?" “That I must leave to Monsignor Satolli.” Dr. Burtsell also said that his visit to Rome had nothi to do with his advocacy of Henry George’s land tax doctrines. He said that the pope regarded the question as one to be treated like free trade, pro- tection and similar economic questions, —____+e-+-_____ Nominated for Congress. Fifth Texas district—J. W.

At the afternoon session of the Minne- Sota democratic convention at St. Paul yesterday a ticket was nominated as fol- lows: Governor, G. L. Becker of St. Paul; Meutenant governor, Jchn Ludwig of WI- mona; secretary of state, John B. Haines of Morrison county; auditor, A. Blerman of Gocdhue county; attorney general, Logan Breckinridge of Oimstead county; treas- urer, C, L. Lambert of Carver; chief jus- tice, Seagrave Smith, Minneapolis; asso- clate justice, John W. Willis, St. Paul; clerk superior court, Thomas Kurtz of Clay county. The platform reaffirms democratic doc- trines, favors the popular election of United states Senators, denounces the A. P. A. and believes in arbitration. a Transfer of Troops. Gen. Schofield, assisted by Gen. Vincent, has been preparing orders for the transfer of troops that have been stationed at posts for four years. The changes will not be numerous and have rot all been determined upon. It is possible that the order will not be issued until it is approved by Secretary Lamont. The army officers at the various posts are very much interested in the con- templated transfer, as it means new homes and less or more desirable stations, as the case may be. ABOUT GEORGETOWN/ALEXANDRIA AFFAIRS Fatal Results of Stepping on a Rusty Pin Noisy Dogs Arouse to Action Indig- nant Citisens—New Edifice of the Gay Street Congregation. Mary Rorina Ellis, daughter of Mr. Geo. Ellis of 1325 35th street, died yesterday of lockjaw. The fatal affliction was produced through stepping on a rusty pin at her home one week ago. Nothing was thought of the accident at the time, and the young girl went about as usual. On Sunday the muscles of her face became somewhat rigid and she swallowed with difficulty. The fol- lewing day Dr. Birdsall was sent for. By that time the girl's jaws had almost become clenched. What food she succeeded in get- ting through her teeth could not be swal- lowed at all. She was in great pain. Many muscles were affected. The physician pro- nounced it a serious case of lockjaw, and treated her for a day and then called in Dr. Appleby. A Bad Son. John, alias ‘Polly’ Caton, was brought before the law's representatives again yes- terday and locked up. His mother was the complainant. Making threats was the charge. Only a few weeks ago he nearly killed his father with stones while he was lying half asleep in his bed. After about ten days, when the father could leave his bed, the case came up in the Police Court, but the parent refused to prosecute. Polly in attempting to escape from the police last Christmas was shot. For a long time the wound was thought to be fatal. War on Dogs. The residents of the section about the cor- ner of the New Cut and Ridge roads are up ip arms over the nightly frolics of a hun- dred curs and mongrels, who invade their precir.cts as soon as the sleeping hour ar- rives, and keep ap a series of discordant yells. The residents are organizing, with the object of making war on these animals. They will use guns. Owners of dogs are therefore warned to crain up their dogs at night. The dogs are said to emit these disturbirg noises while on the search for rabbits. They are not hounds, but canines of miscellaneous breeds. 2 ‘The Gay Street Bapgist Church. Dr. W. S. O. Thomas of the Gay Street Baptist Church has returned from a two months’ sick leave, and will occupy his pul- pit rext Sunday. During his absence the services have been conducted by the deacons of the church, Messrs. Edward Corbett, J. H. Fowler, David Hughes, Soper, Jno. New- man and Taylor King, end the Christian Endeavor Society. Mr. Thomas comes back almost complete- ly cured. He reports that work will com- mence on the new $25,000 brick and stone church on the opening of spring. The con- tributions to the building fund have been encouragingly large. During the construc- tion the congregation will hold services in @ rented hall. The new building will not occupy the eminence on which the present church stands, but be on the grade of the street. It will front on 3ist street. Plans have been prepared. Notes. The demolishment of the M street market house began at 7 o'clock this morning. Falling bricks and clouds of dust have been filling the atmosphere all day. The one- story back building will stand. Into It the dealers have removed their wares. At the Arlington live stock yards Mon- day 115 cattle were up and sold as follows: 4c. to 4 1-te.; good, 3 1-2c. to 3 3-4e.; medium, 3 1-4c. to 3 1-2c.; common, 2 1-4 to 23-4c.

It may be easily imagined that in such company there was a fund of interesting reminiscences, interspersed with excellent speeches and recitations, until the party sang “Old Lang Syne,” and ut a reason- able hour bade the colonel a hearty good- night and “God bless you.” —_—_—. Must Hitch Your Horse. “Whoever leaves his team unattended and unhitched on the streets,” explained Judge Kimball today, “must take all the conse- quences.” The occasion of the court's remarks was a charge against an old colored man, who left his horse unattended and unhitched on the street for a moment or two, while he went indoors. The horse was doscribed as an aged one, unable to go at a caster gait than a walk. He moved off across a street car track, blocking a car. The old man was given an excellent character and he was re- leased on his personal bonds, after being varned not to repeat the offense. BE NIE He Stabbed His Horse. Henry Voy of Oxon Hili, Md., an old gray- haired and whiskered man, amused himself yesterday by deliberately stabbing his horse. The old man was mending the shaft of the wagon, and because the horse would not remain still he pulled out a great heavy knife and plunged the biade into the hip of the horse. Witnesses told the court that the animal was so badly injured that it was covered with blood and so weak from loss of blood that it could hardly walk to a stable. The old man contended that the horse hurt itself, but Judge Kimball took no stock in his story, remarking that it was one of the most barbarous cases of cruelty he had ever heard of. A fine of $25 or thirty days lefault was imposed, and the old man ent down. —— Bronse Fair Medals. Mr. Preston, director of the mint, has opened bids for furnishing blanks and strik- ing in bronze 23,757 medals of award for the world’s Columbian exposition. The bids were as follows: Wm. C. Fink of Elizabeth, N. J., $3.40 each, $80,773; Peter L. Kridler & Co. of Philadelphia, $1.50 each, $35,635; Scovill Manufacturing Company of Water- bury, Conn., $0.926 each, $22,000; Gorham Manufacturing Company of New York city, $1.74 each, $41,337, Tiffany Company of New York, $1.55 each, $43,900; George C. Howdrd of Philadelphia, $0.97 each, $23,044; Joseph K. Davidson of Philadelphia, $1.149 each, $27,300. The contract will be awarded to the Scovil Manufacturing Company of Waterbury, Conn., at their bid of $22,000. —— oe No Push Carts on the Sidewalks, “Old man,” remarked Judge Kimball to Robert Scott, an old colored man, today, “baby carriages are the only vehicles al- lowed on the sidewalks.” The old fellow was charged with running a@ push cart on the sidewalk. He claimed that he did not know he was doing wrong, and the court took his personal bond not to repeat the offense. ——_ Accident to Ex-Sergt. Leach. Ex-Sergt. of Police Charles T.

It has been finally decided that the company will not enter the prize drill at Grarge Camp, owing to the short time in which they have to prepare for it. It is mere than probable, however, that they will takespart in the drill at Richmond in October, during the state fair. The citi- zens generally are much disappointed over the fact that the company will not enter the drill here at home, for they appreciate the fact that the Alexandria Light Infan- try is a fine body of men and has the best of material for a drill team. Mr. Geo. T. Price has been made a regu- lar letter carrier to fill the position caused by another district being added to the city. Mr. Price been a substitute carrier for some time, and his promotion is deserved. Carl Padgett has been appointed substitute carrier. ‘There ic a movement on foot to organize another musical association in this city. ‘The old Alexandria Musical Association was a source of great pleasure to the citizens generally. There is a great deal of musical talent in the city for such an organization. ‘The Alexandria Mandolin, Banjo and Guitar Club now occupy the rooms of the old as- sociation, and will give many pleasant re- hearsals during the coming winter. Mr. Herbert C.

The degree staff of Potomac Lodge, I. 0. 0. ¥., will go to Accotink tomorrow even- ing to organize a new lodge at that point. At a meeting of tho city electrical board, held yesterday afternoon, an ordinance was drawn up to be sent to the city council, di- viding the third ward into two wards, with voting places at the old county court house as at present and at the Friendship engine house on Alfred street. This was made necessary to carry out the Walton law, passed by the last legislature, making the Australian ballot the method for voting in this state. The third ward now has nearly twice as many voters as elther of tne other wards. The dividing line of the ward will be Cameron street.

Louis Winegart and his wife had trouble again yesterday afternoon, and Louis land- ed in the station house. It seems that he had been drinking, and not being satisfied with “jawing” with his wife, struck her several times. When the officers went to i arrest him, he resisted, and the club had to be put into use, and he was subdued. The collector of internal revenue is busily engaged in examining the stocks of the various merchants where playing cards are sold and requiring them to be stamped. William Ford, a well-known colored char- acter, went home drunk yesterday morning and had an altercation with his wife, which ended in his giving her several good smacks. William was taken in charge by the police, and when he appeared before the mayor claimed that he did not strike the woman, but only made the attempt. The woman, like many others, after it was all over, wished to shield her spouse, and cor- roborated what William had said. Wit- nesses, however, testified that he had not only struck her, but had hit her hard, so the Mayor fined William $5 for the assault, and the woman $2.50 for lying. Little Ruth, the infant daughter of W. G. Plaskett, died yesterday morning. The interment, which was private, took place yesterday afternoon. A telegram was received in this city yes- terday from Spartanburg, S. C., announc- ing the death of William S. Yeaton, form- erly a prominent lawyer and resident of this city.

READY ALL ALONG THE LINE paign. Contests to Be Made in the Congres- sional Districts—Nominations on Both Sides, Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., Sept. 4, i804. The republicans are making their con- gressional nominations early this year. In six of the twelve iistricts the tickets have already been named, and by the middle of September all the candidates will be up. The democrats thus far have held but one congressional convention. They have been waiting for Congress to adjourn, also put- ting off nominations that they might profit by possible republican mistakes. The re- publicans are ready to open the campaign all along the line at almost any time now, but probably will not push the button be- fore the middle*of September. Chairman James McMillan is in the saddle, looking over the field, not only with the view of making a sweep for the republicans, but also of securing his own re-election to the Senate. Dennis E. Alward of Clare has been chosen secretary of the state central committee, and campaign headquarters bave been opened in Detroit. The demo- crats have not yet chosen a chairman cr secretary of the campaign and have not opered headquarters—in fact, the demo- cratic campaign is practically at a stand- still, waiting for Don M. Dickinson to say when operations shall be started. In the first congressional district both democrats and republicans are divided. The democrats have the Dickinson and the Campau factions, and the feeling between them is bitter. The republicans have the Pingree and the McMillan factions, and there is absolutely no love lost between them. Levi T. Griffin, the present incum- bent, elected to succeed J. Logan Chipman, deceased, will probably be the democratic nominee. In the second district, after fifty-one ballots, the republicans nominated Gen. George Spalding of Monroe. Gen. Spalding has fcr years been a stalwart republican in a strong democratic county, has a gal- lant war record, and will prove a good run- ner on election day. On the democratic side Congressman Gorman’s renomination will be contested by Thomas E. Barkworth of Jackson. The district is democratic. In the third district Julius Caesar Dur- rows has been renominated. He was elect- ed two years ago by a plurality of about 5,000, end has no fear of the result this year. In the fourth district Dr. Henry F. Thom- as of Allegan, elected two years ago by a plurality of 1,100 over George L.Yaple, has been renominated by the republicans, and the democrats have named Dr. Leroy F. Weaver of Barry county. In the sixth district the republicans have renominated D. D. Altkins, who was elect- ed two years ago by a plurality of 1,400, Mr. Aitkins is a free-silver republican and is solid with the farmers of his district. In the seventh district the conditions are the same as in the first. Both parties are divided. The democrats have the referee and antt-referee factions, and the referees will fight the renomination of Justin R. Whiting. The republicans have on hand 2. feud of ten years’ standing, originating in the bolt of John T. Rich from the con- gressional convention, in which he failed of renomination. 4 In the eighth district the republicans will renominate W. 8. Linton, and the demo- crats are talking of Wellington R. Burt. In the ninth, after 120 ballots, extending ever two days, the republicans nominated Roswell P. Bishop of Ludington. The dis- trict is strongly republican. In the tenth district the republicans have rominated Maycr R. O. Crump of West Bay City. The democrats will probably re- nominate T. A. E. Weadock. Mr. Crump is a leader in the A. P. A., and to that or- der more than anything else owed his nomi- mation. Mr. Weadock is a member in good standing of the Catholic Church. In the eleventh Dr. John Avery of Green- ville and in the twelfth Samuel M. Stephen- son of Menominee“will be renominated by the republicans. Both districts are strong- ly republican. —_———__ VIRGINIA GOOD TEMPLARS, Twenty-Eighth An Staunt. Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. STAUNTON, Va., September 5, 1894. Delegates to the twenty-eighth annual ses- sion of the Grand Lodge of Good Templars came in on every train yesterday, and last night assembled in Red Men's Hall, when the Grand Lodge was formally opened, with Grand Chief Templar Rev. R. E. White of Pittsylvania county presiding and George W. Hawxhurst of Fairfax grand secretary. The committee on credentials reported nearly every section represented, and the session promises to be the largest and most enthusiastic held for several years. Dele- gates reported the temperance sentiment strong, the Grand Lodge degree was con- ferred and annual reports of the grand offi- cers read and referred. Eleven out of the twelve iodges of the Fairfax district are represented. Pioneer Lodge of Falls Church still leads the state in member- ship. Reports show a total membership in the state of 5,159 in lodges and temples. The indications are that the body will adopt a strong aggressive policy in regard to temperance work, but uo alliance with any political party of whatever name.

Trolley magnates in Brooklyn yesterday were given a shock by the verdict of the coroner’s jury in the case of John Walker, eight years old, who was killed on 5th ave- nue line on August 30. The jury says: “We recommend the indictment of the officers of the Atlantic Avenue Railroad Company for the loss of the life of John Walker, and we appeal to Mayor Charles A. Schieren to see that no car be allowed to run in this city after November 1, 1894, without having proper life preservers attached to it. All the witnesses testified that young Walker fell in front of the car and was rolled under the fender, where he was crushed to death. The boy was dragged fifteen feet before the car stopped. Mayor Schieren said: “Similar cases have been frequently brought to my attention. I Lave found, after an examination of the law, that the city authorities have no power to compel the railroad companies to equip their cars with any life-saving device. We can enly use moral suasion in our efforts to get them to protect our citizens.” ———+e0- Gov. McKinley made a non-political ad- dress at the Auburn, N.
