ALEXANDRIA AFFAIRS Meeting of the City Council and Business Transacted. SOCIAL AND NAL AFFAIRS The Electric Road and Its Different Proposed Extensions. MANY PARAGRAPHS Work was commenced Monday on the extension of the electric railroad. As was stated in The Star, the street will not be torn up until the rails are received in this city, In the meantime the poles will be erected and the overhead wires strung. An old scow was torn to pieces yesterday for the purpose of using the lumber in re- placing the bulkhead along Union street between Queen and Princess, where the floods and tides have washed the sidewalk away. A letter has been received by Mayor Strauss, asking for information of a woman named Marguerite Vedecum, or Wedecum, who, the letter stated, died in this city be- tween 1885 and 1890. Mr. F. L. Entwisle discovered a man in his yard Monday night. He shot at the intruder, but failed to do any damage fur- ther than scaring him off. Mr. Wm. Wood, engineer of the Columbia Fire Engine Company, received a letter from Mrs. George Beach a day or so ago, ig aid for herself and two children. She stated that her rent was due and that she had no money to clothe herself and children, and that they were starving to death. The Columbia company yesterday sent Mrs, Beach two wagon loads of gro- ceries, donated by two merchants of this city; also a purse from the company. Any one desiring to help this destitute family can do so by sending whatever they may desire to Mr. Wood. It will be remembered that Mrs. Beach’s husband was killed on the night of August 11, while trying to stop the horses of the hook and ladder com- pany, which had run away. Mr. Alexander J.Wedderburn, formerly of this city, master of the Virginia State Grange, has been appointed to represent tl Baltimore centennial exposition at the meeting of the Illinois State Grange, which convenes at Springfield this week. A marriage license was issued in Wash- ington yesterday to Joseph Harrison and Mary Conway, both of Alexandria county. Capt. Walter Wood, who is well known in this city, is: very sick at his home at —" Ww, creek. ir. arren K. Snyder, formerly of this city, and Miss Emily M. Arlidge of Wash- ington are to be married on the 2ist. Messrs. Sherman Fowler and George E. Warfield of this city are to be groomsmen. Rev. Thomas Beckham, brother of Mr. J. G. Beckham, died at his home, in south- west Virginia, Monday. Mr. Robert Rudd died in Washington Monday. Mr. Rudd was for many years superintendent of the round house of the Virginia Midland railway in this city. Dur- ing the war he held the same position in Lynchburg. Recently the deceased had been living in Washington and was em- ployed in the navy yard there at the time of his death. Officer Keith Davis of the police force is on a ten days’ leave. M R. Honch of Baltimore is visiting relatives in this city. The steamer Florence, which has been engaged in running excursions at Norfolk during the summer, has tied up at Lan- non’s wharf for the winter. The regular meeting of the city council was held at their rooms last night, and they transacted some important business. Mr. A. F. Cox, eity tax collector, sent in his resignation, which was accepted, and an ordinance was passed authorizing P. F. Gorman of the northern district to com plete the collections of Mr. Cox at a com- mission of 5 per cent. Mr. Gorman is to furnish bond in the sum of $10,000. The lower board passed an ordinance creating the office of city engineer, at a salary of $1,500 a year. The board of aldermen laid the matter over until the next meeting, and a fight will probably be made on the proposition. Dr. Julian Miller was elected physician to the poor, to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Dr. Gulick, as mentioned in The Star. Four members of the school board were elected from each ward in the city. E. B. Branch, esq., of Petersburg, who is the grand lecturer for the I. O. O. F. of Virginia, paid an official visit to Serepta Lodge, No. 46, last night, and on Friday night will pay an official visit to the Po- tomac Lodge, No. 38. He will be assisted by the popular grand representative of this city, D. R. Stansbury. Abe Douglas, who has frequently figured in the police court here, but who has lately professed religion, took laudanum last night, with suicidal intent, but is re- ported as being alive today. It is said that his mind has become unbalanced on the subject of religion. Yesterday Justice A. J. Fair of the first ward saw a black boy, armed with a trowel, deliberately cut and mutilate a door step, and as the law empowers any -onservator of the peace to arrest the per- petrator of such acts without a watrant, he seized the youth and placed him under arrest. The boy struggled and resisted, not liking any one to arrest him who was not a regular officer. The justice finally landed him in the station house. Mayor Strauss told his mother thatthe law im- posed a fine of $5 in such cases, but if she would take him down stairs and give him a whipping ne would be released. This the woman gladly agreed to do, and after she had given the culprit a warming up he was released. Complaints are contin- ually being lodged at the station house that boys, white and colored, wantonly de- face property. This work of vandalism is generally carried on at night, and the cap- ture of the miscreants is by no means easy. At the regular meeting of the Alexan- dria Light Infantry Monday night no bus- iness of importance was transacted. ‘The body of the late Mr. Robert Rudd who died in Washington, as stated in The Star, was brought to this city yesterday evening and interred. The funeral took place from Mr. Jas. W. Shinn’s. The pall- bearers were Messrs. Wm. Fleming, John Buckham, Albert Nalls, Andrew Nichol- son, L. Marbury and F. Marbury. Rev. f. E. Carson of the Methodist Episcopal Church conducted the services. A freight car on the Washington South- ern rallroad jumped the track at the cor- ner of Duke and Fayette streets Monday night, and for a time blocked travel. Mr. Frank Daffell of Fauquier county and Miss Dollie Gillingham of Fairfax county were married at Pohick Church Monday af- ternoon. The maids of honor were Miss Phoebe Gillingham, sister of the bride, and Miss Jennie Lewis of this city. Mr. and Mrs. Daffell left on an early train for an extended trip through the south. There were a large number present, including rel- atives and friends from this city, Wash- ington and New York. The ceremony was performed by Rev. S. A. Wallis, rector of the church. Charles Jackson and Hattie Forntleroy, a pair of dusky lovers, had aquarrel in the northern part of the city a night or so ago, during which Jackson whipped out a knife and made a murderous slash at Hat- tie. The blade came in contact with one of her arms and made an ugly flesh wound. She hastily made tracks for the station house and preferred charges against her assailant, but later peace having been patched up she withdrew them, alleging that the cutting was accidental. Officers Howson, Sherwood, Webster, Bet- tis, McCuen and Jones made a raid on nine tramps, who were in camp near the South- ern railway depot. They were taken to the station house and given more comfort- able quarters. The men have been hang- ing around the city for several days. Mayor Strauss this morning detailed offi- cers to conduct them to the city limits with the understanding that should any of them be seen in this city again he would put them to work on the chain gang. Miss Jane E. Thomas died in Wash- ington on Monday. Her remains were brought to this city yesterday for burial. Capt. Geo. A. Mushback, who has been confined to his home for the last ten days. is out again. Mr Wm. Webster is acting lMeutenant of police, while Lieut. Smith of the police force is taking his ten days’ leave of ab- sence. Officer Davis is also taking his ten days’ leave. Miss America Payne of Warrenton, is the guest of her sister, Mrs. T. Marshall Jones, on Prince street. THE AGRICULTURALISTS Interesting Subjects Discussed at the Session This Morning, a a a No Change of Name_Likely Now—Work by Colored: Reople in the South. The agriculturis met again at the Cos- mos Club this morning and much general business was transacted. A resolution was adopted recommending that the executive committee receive subscriptions for the Power bust of Senator Morrill from col- leges and institutions desiring the work. It was also decided to appoint a commit- tee of five to confer with various educa- tional associations and determine upon the entrance examinations and the standard of scholarship necessary to place state :ol- leges upon an even basis with each other and with other educational institutions. The committee will report at the next con- vention. + Messrs. Harris of Maine, Johnson of Wy- oming, Garfield of Michigan, Vanderford cf Tennessee, True of the Department of Agriculture, Brown of Alabama and Henry of Wisconsin were appointed a committee to nominate officers of the association for the ensuing year, and upon its announce- ment, Mr. M. E. Scovell, the secretary and treasurer, stated his desire to retire from the joint office. The consideration of an amendment to the constitution providing for a change of the name of the associa- tion was then taken up and discussed at length. The amendment provided that the name should be “American Association of Agricultural and Mechanical Colleges and Experiment Stations.” After debate, the amendment was lost. Prof, Hoffman's Address. The convention then listened to an ad- dress by Prof. J. W. Hoffman, director of the agricultural department of Tuskegee Institute, Alabama. The speaker, a young colored man, with the face and manner of @ student, was announced to tell the story of “Tne Colored Farmers of Alabama.” He devoted his time, however, to a history of ‘the institute he represented, and it proved interesting to the gathering. An address was made by Director A. C. True of the oifice of experiment stations, Department of Agriculture, upon the work of the stations and their importance to the cause of agriculture. Mr. William T. Harris, commissioner of education, closed the morning session with remarks on the necessity for post graduate courses in agricultural colleges. He was in favor of the states inducing their bright young men who developed unusual ability in agricultural pursuits to undergo such ad ced courses, and pointed out the mutual benefits that would accrue from such a policy, both to the commonwealth and the citizens. The delegates had intended to call on President Cleveland at noon, but the an- nouncement was made that Mr. Cleveland would not be at the White House, and the proposed call was tponed to a time to be hereafter decided upon. Yesterday Afternoon’s Session. Yeeterday afternoon no general session of the convention was held, the time being devoted to the organization of the various sections of the association. Meetings were held both at the Cosmos Club and in the parlors of the Ebbitt House, and a great deal of headway was made by the dele- gates having special charge of the various subjects, such as college work, entomology, tation ‘work, agriculture and chemistry and mechanic arts. The second general session of the con- vention was held last, night. The prin- cipal feature of the meeting was the an- nual address of the president of the asso- ciation, delivered by Acting President Mor- row in the absence of General Lee. The agricultural situation of the country was sketched as presenting great problems for solution by the colleges and stations. —_si— THE COURTS.

COXEY TALKS He Was Not Disappointed at Being Defeated. PEOPLE HAVE MISUNDERSTOOD HIM He Explains How He Would Re- lieve the Unemployed. HIS NEXT MARCH Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. MASSILLON, Ohio, November 10, 1894. “Gen.” J. 8. Coxey, commander of the commonweal of Christ, and late indepen- dent candidate for Congress in this district, was asked this morning how he felt over his own defeat, and what effect the results in this election throughout the country would be lkely. to have on his proposed new move on Washington’ next summer. Mr. Coxey replied: ‘So far as my candi- dacy for Cong‘ess is concerned I was not much disappoin‘ed at being defeated. It was too much to expect a majority of the people to break away from their party lines at this time to support an independent can- didate; and when I fuiled to receive the in- dorsement of either of the two old politi- cal organizations I was bound to be de- feated. But I am proud of the more than 8,000 votes cast last Tuesday, not for me particuiarly, bv for the principles repre- sented by me in this canvass. No candidate anywhere had so much to contend with as I did. The bondholders and money lenders of the whole ccuntry were interested in my defeat, and they poured the money in here freely to secure that result. Had I been elected it would have meant an indorse- ment for my plan of government asaistance to towns and villages in their double effort to build good roads and bridges, and at the same time relieve actual want and distress by giving work to the unemployed. And right here let me tell you that almost every one who understands my plan approves of it. Those who criticise it are either in some way controlled by the bondholding or money-lending lasses or do not understand it. I sometimes think I have not been able to make the general public understand me as well as they should.” “Well, general, The Evening Star will give you an audience for an explanation if you think the people of Washington need to be instructed on this question. In what way do you think you have been misunder- stood?” People Misunderstood Him. “In this: Many people seem to think my plan contemplated that the bureau of en- graving and printing at Washington should be set to work grinding out money to be given by the government to the road or highway commissioners of the several fates with which to build roads every- where. As a matter of fact, in view of the great industrial depression for the past year, my plan was the most statesmanlike of anything proposed to relieve the distress among the industrial classes. “The whole theory of my proposition was upon the accepted principle in eco- nomics that those who are employed are bound to support those who are not; in other words, it makes no difference wheth- er a man gets trusted and does not find himself able to pay for his subsistence, or gives up the struggle for himself and throws himself on the poor authorities of the town, he is yet supported by society. This being true, I maintain that it were far better for society to make each man self- supporting by providing him with iabor than it is to permit him to be supported in idieness. For all things least desirable in any community a large number of tile people will cause the most trouble. Idle- ness is the greatest breeder of vice; vicions people become criminals, and criminals prey upon society. Now, what are the con- ditions in which we found ourselves as a nation during the past year? Whatever the cause, a large proportion of the people in every section of the country were idle, and seemed unable to properly maintain them: selves and those dependent upon ‘hem ior support. It was no use for them to leave home and seek employment elsewhere, for the same conditions prevailed ail over the country. In this emergency it became the duty of the men selected by the people to devise ways and means to bring our coun- try out of its distressed condition. There were starving people in nearly every ham- let in the United States. Looked in Vain to the Democrats. “How best to relieve their wants became the question of the hour. The people looked in vain to the democratic administration at Washington for any movement in this di- rection. While Congress fooled away its time with attempts to still further impover- ish the nation, the people continued to suf- fer. It was then that the plan afterward submitted to Congress suggested itself to me. It was simple and it was right, and the principle involved will yet meet with the approval of the American peopie. There is scarcely a township in the country that has not, at some time in its history, issued bonds for the purpose of raising money with which to construct highways or bridges. Such improvements are perma- nent, and add to the real wealth of the sec- tion where the money is expended. Prop- erty values are thus increased, bringing an increase into the township treasury in tax- es. To get money in this way bonds are usually authorized by a vote of the people, and then a loan is negotiated through some firm of brokers in New York or other mon- ey center. Between the commission to the brokers and the interest to the money lend- ers the township will pay, on a twenty-five- year loan, about two and a half times the amount of the principal before the debt is canceled. This makes such a method of public improvements expensive, and the people are slow to authorize a bonded in- debtedness under such conditions. but my plan would have changed these conditions, and it is for that reason that I was so bit- terly opposed by the moneyed interests. The government now loans money to national banks for a mere nothing, taking bonds as security for the loan. This very money is then loaned to the townships at stiif rates of interest. Now, pray tell me why should not the government take the bonds of thos2 same townships as security for a loan of money and let the people have the benefit of the money at first ds? What His Plan Proposed. “My plan proposed that the government should do this, retaining 10 per cent of the principal to cover the cost of handling the loan, printing the money, etc. and per- mit the people to pay back. the loan, with- out interest, in twenty-five annual install- ments. Tne bonds deposited by the banks draw interest from the government; the bends to be deposited by the towns would not draw interest, and that is what is meant by non-interest-bearing bonds. This has been purposely misconstrued to mean that we wanted people to loan money with- out interest. We ask ncthing of the kind; but we do maintain that the making and loaning of money is a legitimate function of government, and that in such times of national distress as we experienced all over the country during the past year it was the duty of the government to make every possible effort to relieve the suffer- ing of its people. Wall Street Killed It. “The towns mcst interested in such legis- lation as that proposed by me were the towns where labor was suffering from en- forced idleness, and those are the towns which would have been glad of an oppor- tunity to vote an issue of bonds under such conditions as I have outlined. The money thus secured would have been ex- pended among the needy people of the lo- cality in such a way us to have made them self-sustaining, and at the same time have added to the value of every iece of property in the township by mak- ing public improvements. The proposition was constitutional, practicable, and the only measure submitted to Congress which would have had the desired effect by re- lieving the distress of the people. Had it been the recommendation of the President, or some other personage high in authority, it would have received a more cordial re- ception. Wall street was quick to discover that its adoption meant an end to the speculation in money on township bonds, and the edict went forth that the plan was to be rejected and its author suppressed.

Page WINTER RESORTS. -Page How well the orders were executed the people well know, His Next Move on Washington. “Our next move on Washington and the future of the commonweal of Christ?” and the general looked quizzically at your cor- respondeat. “As the next will be a short session of Congress, it would do no good to go to Washington next spring or sum- mer, as we did last. But the movement of this year was by no means a failure. It provoked the widest possible range of dis- cussion, and the result is seen in an in- crease cf hundreds of thousands in the vote of the populists or independents last Tuesday. The overthrow of the demo- cratic party indicates that the people are not to be fooled.with. They promised everything if invested with power, and then did absolutely nothing to give the country relief from a condition into which the as- cendancy of their party had plunged it The result was inevitable Now, there will be a demand on the republican party to do what the democrats failed to do—restore good times once more This they will be unable to do, even if they show a dispost- tion to attempt it; for you may depend upon it the democrats will not let them do anything which will give their political op- ponents an advantage over them in the next national campaign. What will be the result? The people will be as much disap- pointed with the republicans as they now are with the democrats, and it will not be surprising if “hey turn to the populists for relief in 1896. This.may sound dreamy; but it would cause no greater surprise than did the overthrow of the democracy in Mis- souri, North Carolina and Texas last Tues- day. The republican party have been re- ceived again into the confidence of the peo- ple on probation. After their probationary period is over, if they do not prove worthy, it will be just as easy to cast them aside and give the national control to the popu- lists as 1t was to displace the democrats. May Bring Half a Million. “Will we come to Washington in a body? That ‘remains to be seen. If the Fifty- fourth Congress does not show a dispo: tion to enact some legislation in the inter- ests of the masses, we can arrange to bring half a million of people into the District of Columbia then much easier than we brought a few thousands there last sum- mer. The commonweal of Christ will not disband. It has a mission to perform, and while there is a wrong to be righted there will be a reason for its existence.” oo A HORRIBLE DEATH. A Little Girl Bitten by a Dog and Dies in Agony. Virginia McDermott, a child of four, died last night with the most terrible symptoms of hydrophohia. The little one had been under the severest influence of the affliction since Sunday last. All the unnatural signs wore developed—writhing, fvaming, snarling and the savage bringing together of the teeth. Such great agony was the child in that one of her eyes bulged from the socket while the other lost all semblance of naturalness. It wes one of the worst cases that has ever peen at- tended by the physicians here. The baby was bitten nearly nine weeks ago. She was playing about on the side- walk in front of her home, when a short, small black dog came along and jostled her. Sho held in her hand a gmall switch and struck the canine. In an instant he turned and attacked the child, knocking her off her unsteady little feet to the side- walk, Then he bit her about the head and face, inflicting very noticeable wounds. The dog of a neighbor, Officer Gilmore, ran up at this critical moment, attacked the attacking dog and drove him off. With the exception of the ordinary pain experienced through the flesh wounds in- flicted the child suffered no inconvenience until Sunday last. She was eating an orange then, when suddenly her teeth were brought togetner with force several times, like a biting dog The symptoms from that moment devel- oped strongly, multiplying in their inten- sity until death came to relieve the little sufferer. Her spasmodic ravings during her illness were of dogs, it is said, prin- cipally. Deceased is the daughter of Mr. Ferd. McDermott of 2915 Dumbarton avenue. The little one during her last hours was im tke care of several of the best physi- cians. The dog of the neighbor who drove the supposed mad animal from the child at the time of the attack and, it is alleged, was bitten during the fray, has not been killed, to the great discomfort of the resi- dents about. He has been kept chained ever since, however, The tulk of the vicin- ity, though, is to the effect that the Com- missioners will be appealed to for the death of the animal that more probable fatall'ies may be avoided. The dog that attacked and adminisicred death to the child waa a stranze unimel and has not yet been located or identified. ——__ eht Infantry Smoker. ‘The “smoker” held under the auspices of company C, Washington Light Infantry Corps, last evening at the armory proved @ success in every particular.
