NEARLY A HUNDRED tong List of Prisoners in - Police Court Today. NEARLY ALL WERE TRAMPS On Their Way to Richmond and the South. THE SENTENCES GIVEN It is an unusual occurrence for the Po- Mce Court to have nearly oue hundred pris- oners in the toils Friday morning, but such was the case this morning, and less than a score of them belong in this city. The others came under the head of tramps and the charge against them was va- grancy. Because of the smalipox scare some of them showed a little uneasiness, while some were anxious to go down on the farm, although they had a suspicion that some work might be required of them. Others in the party had been given a dose of workhouse treatment and they were more than willing to return to the streets and take their chances in the cold weather with snow and ice on which to walk and beg for something to eat. In almost every case of this kind heard it is shown that the men learn while on the road of the places where they can lodge and get something to eat when they reach here, and most of them make thé first attempt at the mission or municipal lodging house, where not only good beds are furnished, but where something to eat is also to be obtained. Most of these men are headed south, and tell of how they expect to go to work in that section. Newport News and Richmond seem to be the principal points mentioned by them, but Judge Kimball has expressed some doubt about there being so much work. It’s natural, though, the judge thinks, that they should be going south. A baker’s dozen of these men, who had been brought in from the ninth precinct, appeared at the head of the long proces- sion this mornihg, some of them saying guilty and others denying the charge. Kast Washington is overrun by tramps Just now,” said Policeman Ehlers, “and al- most every night the station is filled with lodgers. Many of them reach the city about sundown, and then annoy residents by ringing door bells and begging. “Yes,” remarked the judge, “‘and every one of them should be arrested.” From Philadelphia. “I came here from Philadelphia, on my way to HKichmond,” said Charles Hall. “There's some plastering going on in Rich- mond, and our society got word to send down some men.” “Have you your card?” quired. “We don’t need any card in Virginia,” was his response. ‘m no tramp,” said a man who gave name George Devening. “Nor am I a bum,” he added. “Bums don't wear such poor clothes as 1 have on. Do I look like a tramp?” “You certainly do,” said the judge. “Bums,” explained the prisoner, better togs than these.” “Where did you get that word ‘togs?’ the judge asked. ‘That's a part of the tramps’ languag: Several others made statements, and then the judge had something to say. “These tramps,” he said, “must under- stand that they are not going to be allowed to live in the streets here, and beg from door to door. “and now, during this siege of smallpox, we want to keep the police stations as free as possible of lodgers and prisoners, as no one knows but thess tramps will get the disease and spread it.” “Although one of the men plead guilty,”” said the officer, “he said it would be worth a $5 bill to get sent down. “Perhaps he will change his mind,” said the judge, “when he is sent out to shovel snow. Seven of them were given a chance to leave before noon, and the others were sent down for ten days. Govoad-Bye, John. Sanitary Officer John Frank appeared as a witness against Jane Gannoa, a resident of this city, who is addicted to the use of intoxicants to such an extent that her husband had to leave her. Vagrancy was the charge against her, and she said she was innocent of the charge. She was released from the work- house Wednesday evening and yesterday morning when she called on Sanitary Ofi- cer Frank she was drunk, “She could hardly ik on the smooth flocr in the building,” said the sanitary officer, “and I knew she could not walk on the ice. Not knowing just what to do with her I thought I would bring her into court.” Jane made all sorts of promises, and Judge Kimball told her that he would let her off with a ten days’ sentence. “Thank you, judge,” said Mary, who turned to Sanitary Officer Frank and said, “Good-bye, John,” to the amusement of the spectators and crowd of tramps who were awaiting trial. . A Candidate, A comfortably dressed man, who gave his name as John Bowles, and who had re- quested the police to have him sent down, next appeared and made a stump speech. After tclling of his antecedents he told the court that he worked on a farm all summer and when he had gathered his crops he had $10 above expenses, “I could find nothing to do,” he said, “and 1 applied for a home for the winter at the Frederick county poor house, but there was no room in that institution and I now present myself as a candidate for the work house.” “But,” said the judge, “we have plenty of candidates of our own: without importing any.” “I have no home and I won't tramp the read,” said the man. ‘In better days when I earned money I spent it.” “Spent it in riotous living?” queried the court. The prisoner hung his head and said ncthing. He was given ten days. Frank Riley, a resident, next appeared as a vagrant. Policeman Williams told the court that nk is known as a “lover” in the “Division” and he also spends some time at the race track. The young man promised to return home and lead a better Rfe if released. “What kind of a man are you?’ the judge asked. “Why don’t you quit it?” “I'm thinking about it now,” the young man said. He was released upon a promise to mend his ways. the judge in- “wear Spoke Too Soon. Milton Kann, a young man, who says he hails from Cincinnati, showed by his conduct on the witness stand that he is not calculated to make a good citizen. “He was on Pennsylvania avenue beg- ging,” said Policeman Sprinkle, “and when a man refused him he became abusive.”” “The policeman was not near enough to hear what was said,” the prisoner told the court. ‘Why were you begging?” “I wanted money to pay for a night's lodging.” “Why didn’t you the house?” “I did,” he answered, “and I also went to the police stations and the mission.” “When did you get here?” “Abou® 8 o'clock yesterday morning.” “And how did you learn of these lodging places so soon?” “Anybody can get that information.” “Thirty day: said the court. | Turning to the officer, the prisoner said: “You're a —— liar,” and the judge gave him an additional month. Henry Pinkett, a colored man, arrested for disorderly ccnduct, said guilty and was fined $5 or fifteen days. Z Five lodgers from the fifth precinct ap- peared in the procession, and three of them were sent down to shovel snow. The other two were released. One of them gave his name as Thomas Berkeley, and said he lives in East Wash- ington. “He was given a permit for the Provi- dence Hospital yesterday,” said Policeman Van Zandt, “and he was refused because e went there drunk. Then he went home, whers he received similar treatment.” “Let me go this time,” said the old man, go to lodging “and I go to the hospital, sign the pledge and be a good boy.” . He said that his wife belonged to church and he intends to follow her example. “Pretty late starting,” the judge remark- ed, “but it’s better late than never, and if you have any idea of making the at- tempt I will certainly help you.” His per- sonal bonds were taken. Two Women. Norma Cannon, a colored woman, and Burnice ‘'hompson, a colored girl about eighteen years old, were arraigned for vag- rancy, because they live in the “Division.” Their arrest was the result of an effort to practice a game of deception concerning the girl's age, and the woman was required to give $1W0 security or go down for ninety days. he girl was given one month. “And,” said the judge, “if these prisoners Yeturn to their old home I want the officers to bring them in court. These people who go on the bonds must understand that the bond means something.” ‘Twelve men who asked for lodging at the South Washington police station were next tried. One of them was truthful enough to say that he was on his way south, as he had nothing to do here. “Where are you going?” “For what? “Because it’s warmer there than it is “1 thought so. Another one said he was released from the workhouse yesterday. While there he hurt his leg with a pick, and was unable to waik out of the city on the ice. Others told of how they had spent their nights in the police station, the mission and the lodging house, and nine of them were sent down. Another dozen men appeared, and several of them were sent down. William Harris, a colored boy who hangs about the market, was found on Louisiana avenue last night about 12 o'clock. Policeman Sprinkle was undecided con- cerning the prisoner's intentions. “I don’t know,” said the ofticer, “whether he wanted to steal or was looking for a place to sleep.” Judge Kimball told him he had better keep away trom there at such a late hour, and released him on his personal bonds, ———.—- - STORM ON THE COAST. It Raged With Fury in New Jersey and Long Island. The storm raged on the Atlantic coast. A dispatch sent last night from Atlantic City said: The coast storm is raging here with no signs of abating. A forty-mile gale is blowing. from the southwest, piling up the surf along the ocean front. The meadows are like a big bay, with no sight of land for seven miles. The railway tracks are sub- merged, and the maiis are an hour late. This morning houses on the meadow side of the city were afioat. The yachts in the Thoroughfare have broken from their moorings, and are tossing on the broad expanse of water-covered meadows. Even along Baltic avenue the water is on a level wigh the dret floors. ver at Brigantine much damage is being done, This is by far the worst storm this year. A party of five men in a closed hack started to drive to the mainland this morn- ing to inter the body of a relative of one of the men, About two miles west of the city they were caught by the rising tide. Isaac Miiler, the driver, unhitched the horses and started for assistance. In crossing the turnpike bridge over the Thor- oughfare the structure gave way, and man and horses were nearly drowned. ‘Ihe Abseosn life-saving crew finally launched a boat and rescued the party, who were nearly dead with cold. Furious on Long Island. The northern shore of Long Island felt the full fury of the storm. The gale blew across the sound, and several wrecks and groundings are reported. A number of isolated places on the island are cut off from communication. aitogether, on ac- count of the wires being down, The south side did not suffer so badly. In the in- terior the snow-fall was not heavy, rain prevailing there today. A Norwegian bark, which was sighted yesterday morning in distress off Far Rockaway, was later in the day taken in tow by a tug. She was not badly dam- aged. . At Eatons Neck the schooner Izetta, Capt. Roilins, bound from Bangor, Me., to New York, with 800 tons of paving-stone, went ashore early yesterday morning dur- ing the storm. The captain and the crew of six were taken off by the life-saving crew with great difficulty, on account of the high seas. The freighter Tuchahoe of Providence, R. 1, went ashore at Port Washington, east of Sands Point lighthouse, but the captain and crew were taken off in safety. The vessel was badly strained, but can be pulled oft. —___ —-+0e+—____ HIGH-PRICED PROPERTY, Two Recent Snles of Business Property in New York City. From the New York Herald. Broker John Noble Golding sold for Chas. A. Macy Nos. 35 to 30 Nassau street and Nos. 56 and 58 Liberty street, comprising the southwest corner, on the basis of $112 per square foot, or $1,050,000 for the plot. Five-story office buildings, with stores on the street floor, cover the ground, which measures about 80 feet in Nassau street and 112 feet in Liberty street. The lines are a little irregular, but a careful compu- tation shows 9,358 square fect in the plot. The purchaser of the property is the ned York Realty Company, Fiake & Dow- ng. , : Corlies & Macy purchased the corner, about 55x112 feet, in January, 1881, from the estate of J. Suydam for $185,000, and the adjoining lot, in Nassau street, from Charles H. Russell, in January, 1885, for $98,500. ‘The original cost of the property was therefore $283,500. The news of this sale had hardly been whispered abroad before I was informed that the estate of William Butler Duncan had sold the southwest corner of Nassau and Pine streets, a seven-story office structure, known as the Duncan building, for about $1,400,000, The ground measures 49.5 feet In Nassau street, runs west along Nagsau street 112 feet by south 73x east 23.8x north 24.10x east 83.10, to Nassau street. This plot embraces 5,700 square feet, so that the price by the foot is about $250. The report of this sale was confirmed by persons who are in a position to know, tough those directly interested were reti- cent about furnishing details. . ———+oo— DESTITUTION IN NEBRASKA, Sensational Stories Regarding Saffer- ing Published in the East, A press dispatch from Omaha, Neb.,says: Sensational stories have appeared in cer- tain eastern newspapers telling terrible tales of the sufferings that are being ex- perienced in Nebraska as the result of the drouth. It has been reported that thou- sands of persons were starving and that many settlers had actually perished for want of food. As a result measures for the relief of the crouth-stricken Nebraska farmers are being discussed by the eastern and southern press. The Bee is continu- ally in receipt of letters from Nebraskans, who reside in the east, asking for a true statement of the situation. In answer to these requests for in- formation, the Bee today says that “while t offers of substantial aid from abroad are uppreciated, we believe Ne- braska will be able to care for all who are in want and distress within her borders. At the time the crop failure first becam evident, the idea of calling a special se sion of the legislature was mooted finally abandored as being unnecessary. sos. Extension of the Outing System. It has been decided by the Department of the Interior to permit the extension of the outing system, by which scholars at Indian schools are allowed to work for residents in the vicinity, to all Indian schools, The Indian bureau has directed a letter to Indian schoo! superintendents and agencies dirgcting that suitable families be sought out in which these young In- dians may be wanted. To Look Out for Overdue Steamers. At the instance of Secretary Herbert Admiral Beardslee, at Mare Island, Cal., has sent the cruiser Bennington out to look for the steamers Montserrat and Ke- wawana which are very much overdue at San Francisco. It is possible that the flag- ship Philadelphia may be sent off on a similar cruise, . HE WILL TAKE NO RISKS, mt Who Had ed What Was Good for Him. Indigestion has been described as the ingratitude of a pampered stomach. Like many another smart saying, this will not bear analysis, Indigestion afflicts stomachs that are not pampered, particu- larly in the winter, when people must Hve indoors, and, unless they be very well to do, cannot have the same variety of fresh food as in the summer and autumn. "It anybody insists,” said a busy merchant, “that dyspepsia ip its advanced stages is perfectly curable, I will take bis word. Personally, I run risks. As soon as I fecl a sense of weight in stomach after a meal I know that my Leyes such crawling, when ft should run, What I need stimulapt—something to put my body in general glow as follows brisk exercise. outdoor exercise in winter. Therefore, I fight the Grst sign of stomach trouble with Duffy's Pure Malt Whisky, Our family doctor jokes with me about it, and says that as long as I stick to this treat- ment he can never have an exCuse for sending me a in.” Physicians are too intelligent to blind themselves to facts. They bave long known the value of alcoholic stimulant, but to get an absolutely pure whisky was a tough problem until it was colved by Duffy's Pure Malt. It 1s not sold as a beverage, but its claim to public support is based upon its medicinal properties, which are possessed by no other whisky made. It defends from the conse quences of cold, wet and weariness. Druggists and grocers keep Duffy's Pure Malt Whisky on a lower shelf, well in front. The reason why must be plain to everybody. SENATOR CAFFERY’S VIEWS. He is Opposed to the Nicaragua Canal Bill in Its Present Shape. A report has gained currency about the Capitol to the effect that a movement had been organized in the Senate, headed by Senator Caftery of Louisiana, for the pur- pose of neutralizing or denationalizing the proposed Nicaragua canal. When asked as to the truth of the report Mr. Caffery said: “I know of no organized movement for such a purpose, but I do know that the bill at present before the Senate is objectiona- ble to me in various ways, and I shall seek to amend it before a vote is taken upon it, Furthermore, I believe that if the canal is to be built at all it ought either to be built by the United States outright or that this government should keep its hands off. The neutralization of the euterprise would do away with the subvention of the United States, and I believe that, as scon as this is accomplished, private capl- tcl would flow in in sufficient volume to build the canal. The demands of trade weuld regulate tolis and there ts — in the plea that the government shoul control the enterprise on this account. The canal would not be used unless the tolls were reasonable. Of course, it would be necessary that this neutrality should be guaranteed by the powerful govern- ments of the world, and in that event the United States would naturally receive more berefits from the building of the canal than anybody else. It is my opinion that in course of time it will be necessary that the United States shall own the canal, but not to own it so as to exclude other naticns from its use. It should be under- steed that under the present bill it is im- possible for the government to own the canal, The concession of the Nicaragua and Costa Rican governments is nothing but an easement, and by its terms the United States is prohibited from being the transferee of the canal company. Hence, I say that if the United States pro- poses to intervene at all it should inter- vene so as to count and not pay, second fiddle to the Maritime Canal Compeny, where there would be no ownership what- ever or any possibility of ownership under the concessions granted. I want it under- stood,” said the Senator in closing his remarks, “that I am not opposed to thi canalization of the Isthmus, nor do understand others to be who criticise the pending bill. We favor the canal project as such, but we want the government to either build and own the canal or to neu- tralize it and keep out of the entangle- ment which might result from standing behind a private company in the entere prise.” ———__e-—____ PROHIBITION REMOVED. American Canned Beef Can Enter Some Provinces of Germany. Irformation has reached the Department of Agriculture that the local authorities of Heilbronn, Wurtenberg, Germany, have removed the prohibition placed on the sale of American canned beef. Tne original understanding of the au- thorities here, when the Germa1 govern- ment issued the proclamation prohibiting the tmportation of American meats into Germany, was that it applied to cattle and fresh meats, but the packing house proprie- tors were of opinion that it applied also to canned meats. It is now understood that the prohibition of the sale of canned meats by the authorities of Heilbronn was not included by the German government at the tima the general prohibitory order was issued, consequently its sanction was not required in the removal of tho order, and that the authorities of each province im- posed the canned meat prohibition and have full liberty to repeal it. —————- 2 -—___ KINGS COUNTY SHORTAGE, According to the Expert's Report It ts $59,696.25. At a meeting of the board pf supervisors, held at Brooklyn yesterday afternoon, the report of the expert accountants who have been investigating the accounts of County Treasurer Adams was submitted, and, after a reading, was turned over to counsel of the board, George Elliott. The report is exhaustive and covers the whole of Mr. Adams’ tenure of office from August 7, 1883, to January 1, 1894, when the present board assumed charge of the county affairs. According to the report there ts a total shortage of $80,096.25. ‘The report involves Lawrence J. Tormey, the cashier of the office, to the amount of $24,148.28. The repott shows total amount of jurors’ fees recorded by Tormey as hav- ing been paid out as $498,671.08, and total amount actually paid out as $474,522.80, leaving unaccounted for $24,148. and the total deficit in Treasurer Adams’ report ag $65,547.97, making a total of $80,606.25, After showing the deficiency the report ends. There is no suggestion as to who is directly responsible for the shortage. This will be investigated by Counsel Biliott and the law committee. ——_—__-+e+_-___ Government Employes and Income Tax The Secretary of the Treasury has issued a circular to postmasters and disbursing officers, saying: “The regulations relative to income tax, approved December 13, 1894, provide that; “All salaries or compensation paid to officers or persons in the employ of the government of the United States in and for the calendar year 1894 shall be includ- ed in the annual returns to collectors on form 865 of such officers and persons, in statements of gains, profits and income, subject to income tax for that year. “As the income tax on such salaries or compensation will, under the provision above quoted, be paid directly to collectors by the persons receiving the same, you will, therefore, not deduct and withhold the aforesaid tax, or any part thereof, from the salaries or compensation of any such officer or employe in and for the year 1894."" —— 2+ —__—_ Communism in Land Abandoned.
