Mr. Moss, attorney for the Parkhurst Society, opened yesterday’s proceedings before the Lexow investigating committee, New York, by placing in evidence a chattel mortgsge given by David Kroman to David Kroman. The first David has already testified before the committee that he gave the mortgage to raise money to pay the police for protection. Policeman Ambrose W. Hussey, formerly a ward detective, was the first witness of any interest. Mrs. Churchill, who some time ago appeared before the committee, testified that an officer had walked her around the streets all one night and search- ed her for money. The prosecution tried to show that Hussey was the officer. The woman took the stand. An inter- preter translated her testimony. First was read a lengthy affidavit by her stating that what she had testified befcre the comm! tee in September was true. Her story was @ shameful one. Her children were torn from her by the policemen and placed In an asylum. She was scourged from pillar to post by the police and by Max Hoch- steim, an east side politician, who is at present under indictment for assaulting a reporter. Hochstzim at first, under the guise of a friend, advised her to pay the police, and later insulted anc hounded her. As the woman, who bore a respectable appearance, told her story she sobbed hys- tericaily, and, lifting ker hards to heaven, she cried, “My children! My children!” in her own language. Her children are now in an orphan asylum. —>___ Denth of Rev. Philemon Vawter. Rey. Philemon Vawter of this city died Tuesday morning at Vienna, Va., where he was visiting friends. Mr. Vawter was a member of the Vermont Avenue Church, a retired minister, who has been engaged .in mission work, anti rérently organized a small church at Vienna. He mef with a severe fall, which resulted in concussion of the brain. He was.seventy-four years of age. He came to this ¢ity two years aco from Port Gibson, Miss;, where he was a pastor. For forty years he has been a suc- cessful preacher ampng<the Disciples, and was well known in In@iana, Itinois and Kentucky. His wifé atd two daughters, Mrs. W. H. Harris and Mrs. Judge Mill!- ken, are residents of thjs city. ee A Recelver Refused. Judge Hagner, in, Equity Court No. 2, Tuesday afternoon sefaged the petition of Wm. H. Thomas and‘ther stockholders of the People’s Transportation Company for the appolntment of @, temporary receiver and a temporary Fees crder. Issue will now be joing the answer of the company, and proof taken by the complain- Sate in an effort t' dnstain the allegations contained in their bill of complaint. It is understood that a meeting of the stock- holders of the company has been called for next Monday evening at the Vermont Ave- nue Baptist Church. ——— Yorktown Celebration. Arrangements have been made by the Soclety of the District of Columbia, Sons of the American Revolution, to celebrate the 113th anniversary of ¢he surrender of Lord Cornwallis at Yorktown, at Welcker’s Hotel, on the evening of Friday, October 19. Ad- dresses appropriate to the occasion will be delivered and lunch will be served. Mem- bers of the society will be at liberty to bring ladies of their families and such other guests as they may care to invite. —_—_— The Pastor's Surprise. The pastor of the Church of Our Re- deemer (Lutheran), Rev. Mr. Wiseman, was greatly surprised by a party Tuesday evening. A great many members and friends gathered at the church at about 10 o'clock, bringing presents of various sorts, which were entirely unknown to the rev- erend gentleman. He came in the church, but was so much frightened he had to re- treat for a time. On the delivery of a clock by three faithful members—Miss H. Day, G. E. Wells and D. Chichester—Rey. W. V. Tunnell made a happy address. Rev. Mr. Naylor, in a brief speech, presented the pastor with an envelope containing a neat little sum of money, from the ladies and friends of the church. Mr. O. W. Bonfield, from British West Indies, gave a closing address, on the re- quest of the pastor. Among those present were Mr. and Mrs. Gregg, Mr. and Mrs. Quander and daugh- ters, Mrs. Simmons, Mrs. Robinson and Mr. Smith of New York. Judge Maulsby Dead. Ex-Judge William P. Maulsby, one of the most prominent citizens of western Mary- land, died gt his home, at Westminster, Md., yesterday after a brief illne$s, in the eightieth year of his age. Juige Maulsby was born in Harford county July 10, 1815. In 1840 he was a candidate cn the Van Buren electoral ticket. About 1834-55 he was president of the Chesupeake and Ohio canal, and in 1867 a member of the state constitutional convention from Frederick county. Upon the death of Judge Richard I.

LAND OFFICE FRAUDS Cherokee Strip Settlement. i ieee HOW THE FACTS BECAME KNOWN Lots Wrongly Supposed to Be the Government's KEPT FROM THE SETTLERS Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. ARKANSAS CITY, Kan., Oct. 1, 1894. It was known soon after the opening of the Cherokee strip that many frauds had been practiced by government agents and others, but no one dreamed of the sys- tematic manner in which “sooners” and others connived to defraud the honest home- steaders and settlers. Every day these frauds are being brought to light, and ev!- dence is accumulating to demonstrate to the authorities at Washington the injustice of the methods adopted for opening large tracts of land to settlement. When on the 16th day of last September the signal was given at 12 o'clock to the multitude waiting along the border of the promised land, it was intended that none but bona fide settlers should be permitted to acquire title to the lands, and that all should be given equal chances in the great race. At the time it was known that frauds were being perpetrated, but no one realized how extensive they were,nor how carefully they had been prearranged with the knowl- edge and consent of the officers, whom the government had sent —_ Washington for the express purpose of preventing imposi- tions upon honest homeseckers. Hoey! the first a = SS had passed away complain’ began te pour into the authorities at Washing- ton, and with s: persistence that the In- terlor Department was bag compelled to take cognizance of them. The department sent Col. E. L. Poe of Arkansas, a special agent, to investigate the frauds. He has now been at work several months, and has already unearthed enough irregularities to keep him busy for years. Col. Poe has spent several weeks in Wichita, where he ent to investigate the charges against ‘Wm. Morey, jr., a young surveyor, who was one of a party sent by the Interior Department to survey the town site of Perry, prior to the opening. It was his for- tune to be assigned to the duty of establish- ing the metes and bounds of the streets, alleys and parks of the future metropolis of the strip. Morey’s Schemes. Morey, as the story goes, was well up in his profession, and did his work well, but, as the sequel shows, he had an eye to the main chance, and while taking one look at the interests of the government he took two at his own. When he started for the strip it had been decided by the department that two blocks in the business center of the city should be reserved by the government, upon which the principal business streets should face, but after his plan had been widely adver- tised, it was concluded that one block would be sufficient. The surveyor, Morey, was notified of this change promptly, but the department did not deem it of sufficient im- portance to give notice to the public. So the thrifty engineer found himself in pos- session of some valuable information, which he determined to turn to his own advantage. Immediately upon the completion of the survey of the town site, he returned to Wichita, where, with an accurate map of the location, he established himself in rooms at the leadirg hotel, and sent word to the speculators waiting there for the opening day that he had some valuable information to sell. Of course, he did not advertise his business in the newspapers, but it was only a day or two after his arrival when he became very popular, and his room was visited frequently by number of town- site boomers, who were known to be in search of information that would prove of advantage to them on the opening day. It was rumored that Morey was engaged in selling tips on the advantageous locations in the town of Perry, but as there were many exciting things occurring at that time little attention was paid to him. ‘Two months after the opening a sult was filed in a justice court at Wichita, in which Wm. A. Morey, jr., appeared as plaintiff and C, F. Jackson of Wichita as defend- ant, the amount involved being $100. The suit was instituted by F. B. Northrup for Morey, and a firm of local attorneys was employed by him to prosecute the case. The issues involved were recited in full in rod complaiat, and in brief were as fol- lows: Morey Overreached. ‘When the government decided on having only one block in the town site reserved, Morey, it seems, conceived the idea that as the public generally was of the impression that two blocks would be reserved, a little speculation could be indulged in. He ap- proached Jackson, and, after stating the facts to him, said that for $100 he would guarantee him a certain lot on the block supposed to be reserved, and that he would not require him to pay a cent until he was located. Jackson agreed to the proposition, and paid Morey $10 for providing him a certificate of registration, entitling him to make the race. The day of the opening finally arrived, and the rush took place. As Mr. Morey predicted, no one except those he had let into the secret thought the block was open to settlement and there was no attempt made to take pos- session of it save by those to whom he had sold the information. This little Land of schemers pretended that they had arrived too late to get a desiravle lot and that they had camped on the public square tem- porarily or until such time as the govern- ment should request them to get off. It was several days before the official an- nouncement was made that the block, then conceded to be the most valuable in the city, had not been reserved, but that it belonged to the people who had been oc- cupying it. Mr. Jackson had his tent pitched and was congratulating himself on having come into possessioa of such valua- ble property, when he found to his surprise that he had located in an alley. As he was not on the lot ‘tself he could not claim it, and, having failed to secure it, he re- fused to pay Morey the $100 as agreed. The suit was never tried, for as soon as Morey found that his agent had filed it he instructed him to withdraw it, claiming that he had never ordered it brought. Col. Poe in his investigations at Perry learned of Morey’s transactions, and hearing of the suit that had been filed there went to Wichita and procured an affidavit from Northrup that Morey had authorized him to file the suit, which was withdrawn be- fore it ever came to trial. Col. Poe re- ported there facts to the Interior Depart- ment. Other Land Frauds. It is a fact well known that on the day of the opening the swiftest racers from the southern boriler of the Cherokee strip found the choicest lots on the town site of Perry occupied on their arrival, not- withstanding the fact that a company of soldiers was stationed here for the ex- press purpose of keeping “sooners” off the town site and preventing fraud. The majority of these “sooners” were from Guthrie, and it has since been charged that they gained their advantage with the land office officials and the army officers. At first these allegations could not be sub- stantiated, but after several months of hard work Col. Poe has succeeded in col- lecting sufficient evidence to connect a number of men in high positions with the frauds, and a sensational exposure is ex- pected at almust any ‘ime. Those frauds are not confined to the Perry town rite, but extend to all of the principal towns in the territory and will involve the tiles of many of the most valuable clainis on the river bottoms and in the coal and mineral districts. elias “Jack the Whipper” has broken loose in Chicago.

Field Marshal Count Aritomo Yama- gata, victor of Ping Yang, who has been called the Japanese Moltke, is distin- guished at home in statecraft as well as in military science. He was prime minis- ter of Japan a short time ago and only lately gave up the presidency of the privy council in order to take the field against the nation’s foe. Born in Choshiu, he comes of one of the most illustrious Japanese families. Royal blood flows in his veins, for he is descend- ed from the Emperor Sciwateno, the fifty- seventh in the list of sovereigns. His father was a poet and philologist of note, and in his youth the present marshal ¢ained lit- erary fame, but early abangored the com- posing of verses for a warrior’s career. He fought with distinction in the war of the restoration in 1867 as a cadet in the corps of Kiheital. After the capture of the rebels’ last citadel, Nagaoka, he was appointed to an office similar to that of assistant secretary of war in this coun- try, and was awarded an annual pension of 300 koku (about 1,500 bushels) of rice. In company with Count Saigo, a younger brother of the celebrated marshal and lead- er of the Satsuma cian, Gen. Y; ta was sent to. Europe in 1860 to study the military and political organization of France and Russia. On his return to Japan he became vice minister of war. The next year he was promoted to be a brigadier general and accompanied the emperor on a journey through the western provinces. The portfolio of war_was intrusted to him toward the end of 1872, and he commanded a military expedition for the suppression of a rebellion in the province of Hizen. When the last troubles in Corea’ pre- vious to those of this year threatened to result in war with Japan Gen. Yamagata Was sent at the head of an army to Shimonoseki to await the issue of diplo- matic negotiations in Pekin. Tne success- ful diplomacy cf Count Ito obviated the necessity for the general's military serv- ices and the latter returned to Tokio to carry out important army reforms. On the outbreak of the Satsuma revolt in 1877, headed by the elder Saigo, Gen. Yamagata marched aguinst the rebels and crushed the insurrection. In reward for this brilliant exploit he was decorated with the Order of Meiji and made commander- in-chief of the imperial guard. A year later he became chief of the gen- eral staf and supervised the construction of elaborate fortifications in Tokio bay, a task which occupied ten years. While minister of the interior in 1887 Gen. Yamagata visited Europe again, When he went home he wes appointed prime minister to succeed Count Sanjo and remained at the head of administra- tive affairs nearly three years. Gn retiri he was offered the presidency of the privy council, which he temporaiiry relinquished to lead the army in Corea. —__+ e+ —____ THE LITTLE ROCK TORNADO.

THE PERMIT SYSTEM that they be placed at the corners of all the principal streets. The committee rec- ommended that the following memorial be presented to the District Commissioners: Gentlemen—Main street sewers are needeé as follows: Fifteenth street, from Columbia rcad to Grant street, and on Pine street to Park street; Brown street, from to Lowell Mili street and Howard avenue.” NUwauKee Water mains—Private sewer Street Improvement. The committee on streets recommended that the Commissioners be asked to direct that, where there are streets or highways in the District of Columbia outside of Wash- ington and Georgetown, less than 100 feet wide, no permits be granted to erect any building nearer than fifty feet from the center of the street. The committee set forth the dangerous improvements were asked for. The opening of School street to Kenesaw avenue was urged, and it was pointed out that when the new public school opens pupils south of Kenesaw avenue may be ac- commodated and it will no longer be neces- sary for them to go to the city schools. Ac- = to street, was added to this reso- jution, The committee on schools and school houses stated that the new The surplus of the appropriation used in kalsomining, building a fence and perhaps laying a sewer. Three sides of the building will be finished in fine brick and the two stairways are to be fireproof. There will be three entrances. The old school is art at-present in the hands of Mr. J. B. Brady of the District architect's office. The committee on street railways reported that a new street car line was badly needed. The route would be out 17th street to Low- eli or Park streets, and along Lowell to the entrance to the Zoo Park. Permit System, After the reports of the committees had been adopted, Mr. Chapin Brown cailed at- tention to what he claimed was the injus- tice done the taxpayers under the present permit system. He claimed it cost more than double to nave work done under that system than it could be done mtn Mi pri- vate contract. Better laid pavements could be put in for less than half the cost under the permit system, he thought, and this be- ing accepted as correct by the association, the committee on streets and effort to have street imj Pleasant done by private contract. It was stated that Mount Pleasant could better afford to pay all of the expense upon terms that could be made rather than one-half under the permit system; and what was true of sidewalks was likewise true of wa- ter piping. President Somerville, speaking of the mat- ter of additional street lighting, said he thought it probable that the facilities in that Hine could be increased. He 4ook the cpportunity to congratulate the association upon having secured everything it had asked for, every item having been and spoke gratefully of the courtesies shown by the District Commissioners. The building now occupied by the fire depart- ment would be disposed of, according to present understanding, and the money ex- pended for charity, through Chairman J. B. Steeman cf the committee on charity. City and County. President Somerville laid before the meet- ing a communication from the Benning Citizens’ Association, in which it was claim- ed that about $510,000 had been illegally of wrongly collected from the county tax- payers, and urging that an effort should be made to get it back. Mr. J. M. Wood said the county had been robbed by the city of that amount. Every time, he said, the county districts asked for improvements _ th’ were met with the decicration that there were no funds. An investigation had shown, however, that the money to which the suburban localities were entitled, a portion of which they had paid in the way of texes into the District treasury, had bees arbitrarily diverted into the sinking fund of the District, and was now lying in the treasury vaults unex- pended. A close calculation, he said, the revealed fact that over $500,000 had been thus divert- ed, erd that if the same system continued the robbery would soon accumulate more than $2,000,000, which would be applied to- ward paying the city indebtedness. The act of March 6, 1871, was quoted, showing that the portion of the District not in- cluded in the former corporations of Wash- ington and Georgetown should not be taxed for defraying the expense of either im- prov.ng the streets alleys, public squares or other property of the cities, nor for the payment of any debt contracted by either of said cities while remaining under @ municipal government not co-extensive with the District. The conversion of the taxes collected from the county, which amounted to 12.28 per cent of the revenues, was Genounced. An executive committee to look into the matter was suggested, and Mr. = Brown was chosen to represent the Pleasant Association ©n the proposed com- mittee. Then, after the resignation of Mr. John Hyde, who had moved out of the village, was accepted, the association adjourned un- Ul the first Wednesday in November. the will of the late William Walter Phelps of New Jersey was placed on file here for the purpose of perfecting title to certain real estate in the District.
