Interstate Democrats Also Agree to Antagont: Postmaster Willett's Confirmation. Nearly half the members of the Inter- state Democratic Association were dropped from the rolls at the meeting on Saturday night for the non-payment of their dues,re- ducing the number of members in good staning to about 20). Kesolutions were adopted directing each member to see his member of Congress and secure his personal influence to be exered against Postmaster Willett’s confirmation, because of his ap- pointment of ex-Postmaster Sherwood, a as his assistant. . P. Pumphrey was chosen sergeant-at- arms in place of Mr. Harwick, who re- signed, and John Simpson was elected as- sistant. Committees were appointed on resolutions and to arrange for a concert and ball, to be given shortly, under the auspices of the association. Resolutions of cendolence were passed upon the recent death of Daniel Kelly, a member of the society, and E. D. King was elected as a member. The next meeting will be held on Saturday night. > — DISTRICT GOVERNMENT. Ask a Question. ‘The Commissioners today addressed a letter to Mrs. Emma M. Thompson, prest- dent of the board of women managers of the cotton states and international exposti- tion, desiring to know whether the Dis- trict of Columbia wiil be allowed repre- sentation on any of the boards connected with the cotton states and international exposition. The letter states that if the District is entitled by law or courtesy to such representation the Commissioners would be pleased if she would inform them how many representatives will be accepted and any information connected therewith as to sex, qualifications and form of ap- pointment. Brightwood Cars. Relative to the complaint of G. H. Kuhn of 1209 G street northwest of the manner in which the Brightwood Electric Car Com- pany are running their ca! E. G. Beggs, general inspector, in his repdrt to the Com- sioners, says: “The charter of the Brightwood Railroad Company provides that the ‘cars be run subject to the approval of the Commission- ers of the District of Columbia, but cars shall be run as often as one every fifteen minutes between the hours 5 a.m. and 12 midnight.’ It is the custom of the com- pany to put on an extra car from 6 a.m. until 10 a.m, and from 8 p.m. until 6 p.m. These are for the accommodation cf de- partment people. Cars continue to run every ten minutes until midnight. Mr. G. H. Kuhn is not familiar with the charter of the Brightwood Railroad Company, and does not closely observe the time made by the cars or how often they run.” Captain Fiebeger suggests that Mr. Kuhn be required to give day and hour when the company violated its charter, > ‘The Show 1s Over. The third annual pure food exposition, held under the auspices of the Wholesale Grocers’ Association, reached an end on Saturday evening, after a most gratifying existence of three weeks. The attendance was undoubtedly larger than on any pre- vious day of the show.

DETAILS OF THE ACCIDENT oat ceeren Locomotive No. 111, attached to the local train leaving Alexandria, Va., for this city at 6:05 this morning, jumped the track just before entering upon the Long bridge, and, plunging over and down the slight embankment, pinned Firemar William T. Walker beneath it, crushing the life out of him in an instant: Engineer E. A. Hay- den escaped with a badly cut head, al- though he went down with hig engine. A few of the passengers on the <rain were thrown out of their seats, but none of them were more than slightly bruised. What Constituted the Train. The ill-fated train consisted of two pas- senger coaches, a combination passenger and baggage car and the lecomotive, beirg in charge of Conductor John West. The locomotive, as is frequently the case with the local trains running between here and Alexandria, was running backward—that is, its tender, fitted up with cow-catcher, was the forward part of the train. Just before the north-bound trains run on the bridge they are switched from the double track to the single track crossing the bridge. This switch is located abcut two hun- dred yards south of the bridge, and it was stated thet the switch this morning was set all right before the train approached it. Whether the statement was correct or not, it was simply impossible to ascertain, the raflroad officials, as is their almost in- variable practice, absolutely refusing to give out any information. The fact re- .nains, however, that just before the train left the double track the engine jumped the rails. For a distance of about twenty- five yards it plowed along the ties and then plunged over on its side. So quickly did the accident occur that neither the en- sineer nor his fireman had time to jump. Fireman Killed and Engineer Hurt. The engine toppled over and down an embankment, about four or five feet deep, to the eastward of the track. The front wheels of the passenger coach following the locomotive also left the track, and the coach partly turned, but did not com- pletely ‘eave the track nor topple over. Engineer Hayden jumped from his cab as the engine went down, escaping with a badly cut head. The engine fell over on its side, pinning the fireman, who was seated at the cab window, beneath it. To extricate the unfortunate man the greater part of the cab had to be cut away. The poor fellow was found sitting up- right, and while has face was unmarked, his body was crushed almost out of shape. He lived at 511 South Capitol strpet, and is eaid to have a wife and several children. His body was removed in the patrol wagon to Lee's undertaking establishment, and it is probable that Coroner Hammett wili hold an inquest. Railroad Officials Won't Talk. The accident occurred about 6:30, and {mmediately after the railroad officials here had been notified of it they sent out a wrecking train, and in a few hours had the wrecked locomotive hauled out of the way and the plowed-up track replaced. There was no interference with travel on the road. As is usual in such cases, the first re- ports of the accident were greatly exag- gerated, it being at first reported that thirty people were injured, many of whom were Killed outright. Superintendent Me- Keever was soon on the ground for the purpose of superintending the wrecking party and instituting an investigation as to the cause of the accident. As stated above, Mr. McKeever nor any of the other rail- road officials would talk, and the generat belief is that the accident was due to the engine jumping the rails, The engine, while badly damaged, was not completely wreck- ed, and it is probable that the pecuniary loss suffered by the road will not exceed — ae AMUSEMENTS. The Boston Symphony Orchestra.—The Boston Symphony Orchestra, whose per- formances come very near representing perfection in musical art, will give its second-concert at Metzerott Hall tomorrow evening. ‘The attractiveness of a brilliant program will be increased by the initial appearance in this city of Mr. Cesar Thom- son, the famous Belgian violinist, who is to be the soloist of the evening. Mr. Thomson came to America with the pres- tige of great and continuous success in European capitals, and added to his laurels on the occasion of his urst appearance ih this country at a receat concert of the Philharmonic Society of New York. He ranks with the greatest of violinists, and in his absolute mastery of violin technique he probarly has no equal. His Wasning- ton debut is likely to prove one of the most interesting features of the present season. He will play with the orchestra the Adagio from the Bruch Concerto for violin and the Concerto by Paganini, a work of amazing ditticulty, in which his remark- able qualities will be shown to the best ad- Vantage. ‘I'ne orchestral numbers of the program include Johannes Brahms’ sym- phony No. 4, in © minor; Franz Schubert's ballet movement and Entr’acte from “Rosamunde;” Georges bizet's “L'Arlesi- enne,” orchestral suite No. 1, and Joh. Svendsen’s Carnival in Pa: The Bischoff Concerts.—The sale of seats for the series of concerts to be given at the Congregational Church under the direction ef br. J. W. Bischoff commenced this morning, and the long iine in waiting at Ellis’ music store attested the popularity of these concerts. The first will be given on Friday cvening, the 1ith instant, and the others will be on the second Friday of each succeeding month. The program will be carefully arranged and will be fully equal to those of former years. Convention Jiall—The concert of the Moody and Sankey Choir, which vill take place at Convention Hall on Wednesday evening, will be an interest!ng musical event. This choir is the largest permanent organization of Gospel sir.gers in the world, and under the direction of Mr. Percy 8. Foster it has acquired a high degree of proficiency. The program will include some fine antheths in addition to choice Gospel hymns. The soloists will be Mrs. Thomas C. Noyes, Mr. Elphonzo Youngs, jr., and Mr. F J.Woodman. Dean Hole.—Yronight the Dean of Rochester Cathedral will lecture on “So- ciety in England” at Metzerott Hall. The dean has arrived in the city In most ex- cellent health and spirits, and will doubt- less give his hearers a rare treat this even- ing. he subject is a favorite one with him, and surely no man has had a larger experience and ts more capable of pre- senting it in an attractive manner. ae ae ae Hospital Not to Blame. In the unhappy matter of the death of Mrs. Thomas Russell by fire at Garfield Hospital, Dr. H. C. Russell, son of the dead woman, says that not the slightest blame could possibly attach to the hos- pital management or authorities. He 1s well satisfied that the unfortunate affair | was unavoidably accidental. The care given his mother was of the best charac- ter. ‘The day nurse had just stepped out to meet the night nurse, who was coming on duty, and stopped in the hallway with- | in ten feet of the open door of the sick chamber. The patient probably was a little out of her head, and seeing the gas jet burning faintly, thought it something pret- ty and reached up to it. In doing this the sleeve of her night dress took fire.

AFFAIRS IN ALEXANDRIA Roberts Chapel Dedicated With Some Im- pressive Ceremonies. Many Affairs of Importance Told in Brief, Short Paragraphs—Local and Personal Notes. Roberts Chapel, colored, which has been recently rebuilt, was dedicated with ap- propriate ceremonies yesterday. The build- ing is now one of the handsomest colored church edifices in the city. The cost of the improvements was $3,000. The church was originally built in 1834 and was named Charles A. Davis Chapel, after its founder and pastor. In 1845, when there was & division in the church, the name was changed to Roberts Chapel. The services were very impressive and consisted of preaching by Rev. J. 8. Cooper of Balti- more at 11 a.m.; preaching at 2:30 p.m. by Rev. J. F. Chestnut of Washington; dedi- cation sermon and exercises by Revs. W. H. McAllister and D. W. Hayse; sermon at 7:30 p.m. by Rev. W. H. Horn of Washing- ton. Each service was largely attended. The regular monthly meeting of R. E. Lee Camp, Confederate Veterans, will take place in their rooms at the Columbia en- gine house tonight.

The club have decided to give up their rooms in Sarepta building und go back to their old quarters on King street between Royal and Fairfax streets. Yesterday was particularly quiet in this =~ and no arrests were made by the po- ice. Owing to the unsettled condition of the weather, the congregations in the various churches were not as large as usual. In all but the Second Presbyterian Church the resident rectors officiated. In this church Rev. J. P. Smith of Richmond preached morning and evening for Rev. Mr. Rice, the pastor, who is holding a revival meet- ing in Lynchburg.

The popularity, esteem and high respect in which Father John M. Barry is held was practically evidenced yesterday, when in pursuance to a call from one of the leading parishioners nearly every Catholte in the Tenleytown precinct assembled in the town hall adjoining St. Arne’s Church for the purpose of deciding upon the most effective way and manner of addressing Cardinal Gibbons and begging that he al- low their pastor to remain in the charge he has brought from insignificance to im- portance. The town hall was crowded, the attend- ance being between three and four hun- dred. Mr. Charles Morgan brought the meeting to order, and explained the object of its call fully. It was, he said, to dis- cuss the cardinal’s action and select a rep- resentative from the church to formaily express the congregation's regret at the call, and fetition tor their pastor's reten- tion. ‘Many spoke, all recounting the father’s usefulness and the loss that would be sus- tained by Tenleytown at his departure, All remarks were highly laudatory and feelingly expressed. it was finally determined that the most effective way of approaching the cardinal would be in person, and a committee was appointed to represent the congregation. Those selected were Joseph Curren, J. McLeran, S. J. Shoemaker, Charles Mor- gan and E. Endres. ‘These comprise scme of the oldest members of the church and men who have been attendants during va- rious pastorates there. Last night the committeemen met and perfected their mauner of approaching the Baltimore church dignitary. The call will be made upon the cardinai today. The order of the cardinal for the trans- fer of Father Barry is the one topic of conversation in Tenleytown. It has stirred ub all denominations there, for the priest is universally loved, irrespective of creed. He has administered both to the spiritual and bodily welfare ot the peopte there, and endeared himself to them all for it. Notes. Esther Barry has transferred to John M. Barry lot 12, block 3, in barry'’s sub of “Friendship,” in Tenleytown, D. C. Carter, who died at buried today at Her- Cabin John’s bridge. Father mon Chapel ni ST. PAUL'S FAIR. All Arrangements Completed for the Forthcoming Entertainm The handsome new marble church of St. Paul's parish, which has been erected during the past year, on the corner of 15th and V streets northwest, will be dedi- cated with appropriate ceremonies on the last Sunday in December, and the pastor, Rey. James F. Mackin, and his assist- ants, Rev. Fathers Foley and Gross, to- gether with the lay members of the parish, are busy preparing for that important event. To aid in paying off a part of the debt which has been contracted in the erection of the new edifice, a fair has been arranged and will be opened for busi- ness tonight. The school hall beneath the chapel has been beautifully dec- orated with flags and bunting, and the various booths therein give evidence of the taste and activity of those who are par- ticlpants in this enterprise. A formal opening will take place tomorrow night, at which Cardinal Gibbons will be present and make an address. The Carroll Insti- stute Orchestra has also volunteered to furnish music for the evening. Leading vocal and instrumental talent has been secured for the succeeding nights of the fair, and will no doubt be the means of attracting large numbers of the friends of the parish. “ Chancery sale of lot fronting 37 feet on 9th street southeast, improved by the frame dwelling No. 531 Yth street souih- east, will take place tomorrow at 4:30 oclock p.m. See advt. ° IN THE CHUROHBS. Some of the Events of Interest in Religious Circles. An address was delivered yesterday af- ternoon by Senator Peffer before the Brotherhood of Andrew and Philip of the Eastern Presbyterian Church, The Sen- ator said, in the course of his address, that if the world is to be redeemed it would be through the work of young men and women. He spoke of the bad in- fluences which surrounded the young, specifying horse racing, foot ball, base ball and all other sports, which, although not evil in themselves, were productive of pernicious results. Rev. Adolos Allen, the eo-pastor of the First Presbyterian Church, in the course of @ sermon last evening on Washington, spoke of the advantages of this city as a Place of residence and the elevating in- fluences of the artistic surroundings and cultivated society. He said that the citi- zens of this city should be prominently known for their Christian citizenship. Each one should see that the laws are enforced. In referring to the charges against Sergt. Daley, the speaker said that if he were re- moved it would be a wrong. He believed that an officer of the police force who was carrying on so good a work would be sus- tained by the people of this city. At Foundry M. E. Church yesterday morning Bishop Hurst delivered an ad- dress on Christian sympathy, preceding the communion service. Rev. Dr. Jessup, who has spent the past thirty-nine years in missionary work in Syria, told an audience at the Eastern Presbyterian Church last evening of the progress of the Christian religion in that country. He said that the conditions there are vastly improved, and that some pro- gress is being made in the education of fe- males. He said that no newspaper can be printed without official supervision. He thought that there would be many benefits to be derived from the introduction of railways into the country:~ Rev. William George Taylor, founder of the Central Methodist Mission at Sydney, Australia, and official representative of the Wesleyan conference of New South Wales, occupied the pulpit at the Metropolitan M. E. Church last evening. oe An Important Sale Tomorrow. Messrs.

One Man Gets Six Months for the Af- fair. For the first time in the history of the Police department .a crowd of negroes “held up” a patrol wagon Saturday night ‘and resoued a prisoner. Policeman Potee, who was in charge of the wagon, was roughly handled, and although the colored woman who was inside escaped one of the members of the crowd of rescurers was captured. The affair happened about 11 o'clock near the corner of Filorida avenue and 6th street. The patrol wagon was g0- ing in the direction of the eighth police station, when the band of negroes filed across the street and called to the driver, “Hold up!” : The driver obeyed, and as he did so one man grabbed the policeman and attempted to drag him from the wagon, but the offi- cer dealt him a blow in the face and knocked him down. This man proved to be a man named John Johnson, who was @ stranger in the neighborhood. He was drunk and had been drawn into the trou- ble by friends of the woman. He was the only one arrested and the officer put him in the wagon in place of the woman, who had escaped. When he appeared in Judge Miller’s court this mcrning he plead guilty to a charge of assault and said he had no recollection of what he did. He told the ts. he had two or three drinks and what appened afterward he did not remember. Judge Miller said he was sorry the offi- er had not caught the ringleader. Johnson was given six months in jail. Weak, Nervous, Tired ‘This is the condition of thousands of women who have the care of households with all their exacting duties and great responsibilities.
