Opinions in several cases were handed down in the Court of Appeals after court had adjourned for the day yesterday, and one of the cases decided was that of the American Car Company against the Wash- ington and Georgetown Railroad Company. The local company in 1891 contracted with the other for 120 cable cars, at $749 each, to be delivered in the following May, June and July. The purchasing company al- leged that there was a delay in the deliv- ery of the cars, and therefore retained $18,288 of the purchase money as an offset. | The local compahy lost the case in the court below, and that judgment the appel- lute court reverses, holding that the ques- tion of delay in the delivery of the cars should have been left to the determination of the jury. In the case of Martha Hall, administra- trix of the late Dr. Franklin P. McLean, against Helen L. Kimball, the judgment of the lower court was affirmed. The de- ceased at one time presented Helen L. Kimball, a cousin, with $10,000. Subse- quently he induced her to invest it with $8,000 of his money in a loan to John and Emily Walter. The administratrix claimed the whole amount, but the lower court held that Mrs. Kimball was entitled to the $10,000 she put in the loan, with interest. In the case of the United States against R. A. Phillips, the lower court held that the payment of an army officer’s accounts when on leave and before the regular order cau be observed is not a payment. The case was one of duplication of pay ac- counts, Mr. Phillips innocently cashing one, and the Court of Appeals sustained the de- cision of the lower court. The court in the case of William May against Sarah May and others, arising over the estate of the late Dr. May, affirmed the judgment of the lower court, holding that the heirs may by an agreement between them remove Mr. May from the position of trustee by the substitution of some other. —<—<—_— Banding Together for Humanity.

Foster [ledicine Co., Baltimore, M 4212-11 LATE SPORTING NEWS ~ AGAINST FOOT BALL. “am Anti-Pigskin” Tirade in the Massachusetts Assembly ‘The game of fovt ball as now played by college students got a scoring in the Massa- chusetts assembly yesterday at the hands of Representative Daniel Buckley of Cam- bridge. A petition-for the enactment of a law prohibiting the-playing of elevens from educational ir stitutions was down for a hearing before the house committee on ju- diciary. Mr. Buckley, the white-haired orator of the college city, was the principal speaker. He said: “The recent report of the president of Harvard University. relating to foot ball is encouraging, but it matters not to me whether a case is hopeful or hopeless, if it is only right. A college is simply an educational institution for the purpose of converting men from the old brutes to the intellectual giants of today. Athletics should serve only to make physical condi- tions more favorable to study. I believe in them, but not necessarily in foot ball. The old Greeks were all athletes, but they were not foot ball players. My claim is that it is a brutish game, and, if played, should be played only by brutes. I claim that pugilism ts legs brutish than foot ball. “In that Corbett-Sullivan contest there was only one woman present und she was disguised. But the most refined women of this commonwealth attend Harvard-Yale foot ball games and see the players maim- ed with broken collar bones and carried of the field delirious. Go to a prize fight, see the fighters get hot and shoot out from the shoulder; see the spectators, their upturned faces flushed with excitement, their mus- cles swelling, almost rising to their feet as if eager to take a hand in the ‘scrap.’ Go to a foot ball game and witness a sim- ilar exhibition of feeling on the part of the spectators. Colleges ought to eliminate the brute. The old Adam is in us all.” Chairman Myers—“Don’t you think the colleges can regulate this sport without making it a crime under the law?” Mr. Buckley—“This ts a reign of law, and law is what stops these brutal sports.” The committee will report “inexpedient to legislate.” The Alleged Pittsburg Revolt. President Hart of the Chicago league ball club is quoted as inclined to ridicule the story sent out from Pittsburg to the effect that the latter place and St. Louis threaten to start a revolt against the Na- tional League. “I cannot believe that President Kerr of the Pittsburg club has been correctly quoted in the matter,” he said yesterday. “If he or Chris von der Ahe had any kick against the league, the time to-make it was at the meeting, where all the citles were represented. That is what meetings are held for, as I look at it. If the talk is true, there is absolutely no chance of their causing any disruption or trouble in league ranks, for the simple reason tiat there would be too many ar- rayed against them. As for Mr. Kerr, he has, I think, too much good business sense to be a party to such a deal. It is ridicu- lous on the face of it, and I do not believe there is a word of truta in it.” Hank Haff to Sail Her. A Rockland, Me., special says that it will be a Yankee skipper and a Yankee crew which will sail the cup defender now being built by the Herreshoffs, at Bristol, R. L, and the old Pine Tree state will have her share in the glory thereof. The yacht will be skippered by Capt. Hank Haff, who sailed the Volunteer for Gen. Paine and the Vigilant abroad last summer for George Gculd, and the celebrated skipper will have for a large portion of his crew the hardy fighermen and sailormen of the Maine ccast. The news that Capt. Haff is to sail the new boat comes:as somewhat of a surprise, for it was understood that Capt. Terry of the Grayling would be the man. Broken Glass Fed Dogs. CHICAGO, March 6.—Dwight Effie, one of the most valuable Gordon setters brought to the Mascoutah Club's bench show by the Dwight kennels, died last night under sus- picious circumstances. Broken glass had been given to her in food, and she bled in- ternally to death. Dwight Sarah, shipped in the same crate with Effie from Detroit, is also sick in the same way, but will probably recover. The dog that is dead was valued at $1,000. Just when or where the broken glass was given to the dogs is not known. The man in charge of them says they all left Detroit in good shape, with no sign of sickness in the string. National Croquet Asnoctiation, For about the first time in the history of the organization the books of the Na- tional Croquet Association, the treasurer says, “show a respectable balance” in its treasury. In other words, the association was never in a more flourishing condition, despite the public idea that scientific cro- quet is a failing cause. “The fact is,” said the treasurer, “we have distributed all the prizes due to prize winners in the late national tournament, paid all bills for debts incurred by the asso- ciation, and still we find ourselves con- siderably to the fore In a pecuniary way, as already stated. Furthermore, the asso- ciation is steadily increasing its member- ship. We have the finest fenced tourna- ment grounds in the world, with seven perfectly equipped and superb courts, light- ed with electric arc lights. We have a commodious club house on the grounds, with spectators’ galleries. The fact is, the wonderful expert game of ‘ground billiards’ is as yet in its infancy in America, as else- where.” News About the Washingtons, Promptly at 2 o’clock today the mem- bers of the Washington, D.

No definite decision was reached, and the meeting adjourned until March 19, when the. matter will.be. taken up again for final debate. > The reply of the athletic overseers to the faculty’s resolutions was withheld by the latter, but it is understood that it suggests certain restrictions on the game as now played, but protests against its absolute abolishment. CANINE ARISTOCRATS. Annual Bench Show of the Mascou- tah Kennel at Chicago. The annual dog show of the Mascoutah kennel was opened at the Lake Front armories, m Chicago, yesterday. The ex- hibit is an unusually large one, 816 dogs being present, representing the pick of ca- nine aristecracy.

Lewis of Akron, Ohio, of the famous St. Bernard Io to Charies Joseph of Chicago.

Raflroad Matters Dixcussed at Last Night's Meeting. The Benning Citizens’ Association ‘was called to order promptly at 8 o'clock last evening by Vice President Mewshaw, with all the officers present except Treasurer B F. Maney. After minutes of last meeting had been read and approved the chairman of Ben- ning road committee recited at legsth the action his committee had taken in refer- ence to the matter of ‘securing street car facilities. He said the committee prepared numerous petitions, which were circulated in and about Benning and generally signed, and that sald petitions, containing the names of several hundred residents and property owners in and about the town and out Biadensburg road, had been pre- sented to the House District committee last Friday morning by Messrs. Keyser, Broome, Miller and Wood, representing the committee, and that on Saturday morning a similar petition was filed with the Senate District committee. Favorable action was had by said committee and the bill finally passed and would have become a law had the President signed it. On motion of Mr. France, the report was accepted and a vote of thanks was tendered the Benning road committee for its earnest and faithful labor for better transportation facilities. Mr. Milstead, chairman of the railroad committee, reported that several attempts had been made to address the Commission- ers in reference to the Baltimore and Ohio and its refusal to put up gates, &c., but that his coieague on the committee was physically incayacitated to perform his du- ties. Several personalities were indulged in and the chairman instructed the committee to make another attempt to get what the association desires, E The chairman of the executive commit-| tee reported that a meeting would be call- ed in a few days. Under the head of new business the president of the association urged that the street car matter be. vigorously pushed. Mr. Mewshaw was of opinion that the Columbia Railway Company would not build its line to Benning. Mr. France thought Benning had a great future, and he wanted the street car matter pushed to | completion. It was fmally moved that the Benning road committee visit the officers of the Columbia Rallway Company and get from them an expression of opinion as to their intentions in the matter, together with their reasons, and, after the transac- tion of some minor business, the meeting adjourned.

He was charged with vagrancy, and when arraigned, he answered “guilty.” “This man has been about the mission under the influence of liquor,” said Police? man Hamilton. ‘He was there about three weeks ago and went away. Several days pago he returned and has been about’ the bullding drunk.” : “Was he begging?” the court wanted" to Bernard O'Reilly, a young man, whose appearance indicated that he is a stranger, plead gulity to a charge of profanity, and the usual fine was imposed. Patrick Keely, a man who belongs in the marine corps, appeared in full uniform, and plead guilty to a charge of profanity. A fine of $5 was im; “Do you want word sent to the bar- racks?” the éourt asked him. a “Yos, your honor,” answered Keely, “I’m a marine, and I’d thank your honor if you would send word to the garrison.” George Lewis, a colored man, plead not guilty to a charge of having used profane language in a house on O street last night. “But, he was profane,” said Policeman Conner, “I heard the loud talk and profan- ity in the house, and when I went there I found Lewis in a fight with a woman. “Ten dollars or thirty days.” On a Spree. John Phillips, who says he has lived in this city for fifty years, stopped Policeman Bateman on the street and asked if he would do him a favor. “What is it?” the officer asked. “T’ve been on a spree, and am all broke up,” he said, “and I want you to send me down to sober up.” & “Are you guilty or not guilty?” the clerk asked him when he had finished reading a charge of vagrancy to him. “Not guilty,” answered Phillips, in a tone indicating that he meant what he said. “How can I be a vagrant when I have a good home?” “Where do you belong?” “In this city.” ~ “How long have you been here?” “All my life.” z He admitted that he had been on a soree for some days, and the judge sent him down for fifteen days to get the liquor out of him. Three young men, two of them from Bal- timore and the other an Englishman, were in the toils because they had applied for lodging at the first police station. ‘The young men from Baltimore said that they came here looking for* work, while their English friend said he was on his way to Philadelphia. “I injured my foot coming across the water,” he said, “and now I am on my way to Philadelphia.” “Are you able to walk there?” “I'll do my best.” x They were released on thelr own bonds. James McHugh was glad he had an cp- portunity to say guilty to a charge of vag- Trancy and get a home. “He (was begging on Pennsylvania avenue,” explained Policeman Payne. fohn Tolliver, a one-arm_ colored * and his friend, Alexander Hawley, mth in the procession because they had a dis- @greement out on an ash dump ;esterday afternoon, where they disturbed nobody CS themselves. ‘olliver found a watch on the jump and he said there were three jewels in the case. : “No, they ain't,” said Hawley. “I'll bet you ten cents they is.” The money was put up, but the vet was ‘declared off by one of the boys, and then there was a tussle for the money. Judge Kimball fined the Tolliver boy $1 and took Hawley’s personal bonds. A party of colored boys brought up the rear of the procession, and Judge Kimball fined them for having engaged in a crap game. —— A Merchant’s Vigorous Kick. To the Editor of The Evening Scar: ‘The merchant of the present day is sure- ly bored to death with people who, simply because they buy from him, expect him to enter every little scheme their minds fos- ter. If one organization proposes giving an entertainment, it first of all sends around to have the merchants take space, so that the program ccsts the organiza- tion nothing. Then some one else of that organization comes in and offers tickets for sale for this entertainment, and if the merchant does not comply with the re- quest, the first thing that is flung at him is, “Well, we deal at your store, and surely expected you to buy tickets.” Then some society or other wants to give a fair. The members at once seek their merchant to get donations, come to him to buy tickets for the fair; then expect him to take space in their program; then the participants want him to give them votes. If the mer- chant doesn’t do as they request they will tell him that they will cease dealing with him. Then some crganization will want to go to some distant state to compete for a cash prize. They will come and expect a big contribution, and show their resent- ment plainly if refused.‘ Then the thou- sand and one people who bore you to death for various other schemes on the same or- der. It is overdone; it is ruinous. The merchant who would accede to all these re- quests would be a pauper in a year’s time. And which of these whom he has helped would come to his aid? None. He sell you his merchandise at an honest price; has all facilities for your shopping; gives you a good dollar’s worth for every dollar you expend. What right have you to ex- tort unreasonable things from him? What- right to threaten him with cessation of business dealings simply because he will not spend his earnings, and more, for all these unreasonable schemes? Now, stop to consider and see how very wrong all this is. MERCHANT. ———__ Illness of Mr. F. P. B. Sands. Mr. F. P. B.

Some of the Sights to Be Seen at the New Corcoran Gallery. ‘They do wonders in cutting marble now- adays. If you want to be convinced of it go and see it done at the building now in rrecess of erection for the new Corcoran Art Gallery, near the State, War and Navy building. Thirty thousand cubic feet of marble are to be put into the structure, and the stuff is brought by rat! in huge blocks from Georgia. Some of the chunks weigh as much as fifteen tons. It takes twelve cubic feet to make a ton. To begin with, you will see a great block being sawed into slabs. The saws are mere strips of steel, arranged in a frame 80 as to work back and forth on the block. It is as if you would cut a cake into slices with several knives at once, holding the blades parallel. The saws have no teeth, strange to say, but a nick is filed on their edges here and there to make them catch the sand better. They are kept constantly supplied with water and sand, and the lat- ter really does the cutting. A Planing Machine. “Just beyond is what is called a planing machine. It is a gigantic, horizontal screw, on which a carriage runs back and forth. Upon the carriage is placed a block of marble. As it runs along it is cut by a knife of the finest and most highly temper- ed steel. Thus the moldings for cornices are cut. The knife make a hideous noise, but it does the work ever so much quicker than would be possible by hand tools. The planer is quite a new idea, having been used for marble only within the last year. Marble, though only a form of limestone, is extremely hard. In respect to hardness, hov-ever, even that from one quarry varis very much, and a single block will be harder quite often on one side than on the other. The harder it is the better, because the hardest marble will take the finest finish. Of course, all marble is made up of the shells of mollusks, foraminifera and other animals which once lived in the sea. You cannot see any traces of forms of the shells in it, because the stuff has been altered since it was laid down as a sedi- mentary deposit, being crystallized by the action of heat. Cutting Out “Dentals.” Another machine in this temporary mar- ble shop looks almost exactly like the con- trivance that is used at the bureau of en- graving and printing for perforating post- age stamps, only that it is on a very much larger scale. It is a series of steel wheels strung on a single, long axle. Against these wheels a block of marble is shoved, and they cut out of it pieces at regular in- tervals so as to leave a sort of ornamental fringe of teeth. That is to say, projeat- ing points are left to form a border and relieve the eye. Architects call these teeth, rather appropriately, “dentals.” This work also is done at a rate of speed much ake than would te practicable by hand bor. of “dentals,” there is another machine tliat is used for finishing off the dentals, and for other similar purposes. It looks exactly like the contrivance employ- ed by dentists for boring out decayed teeth. Nor is this surprising, inasmuch as the idea was taken directly from the dentist's appliance referred to, being merely a modi- fication thereof, and very much magnified. The drill is held at the end of a rubber tube, through which air pressure is sup- plied, and all the workmen have to do is to grasp it with one hand and direct it, as the dentist employs his little tool.

A most peculiar homicide occurred in front of Jas. Martin's residence, on Dalton ave- nue, in the west, end of Cincinnati, yester- day. Mr. Herman Wessling was on his way to work when, without warning, a pistol ball entered his chest, passing through his heart, and he fell unconscious before Mr. Martin’s home. The story of the shooting, as told by Mrs. Martin, is that she was making up their folding bed in the lower front room and took the revolver from under the pillow and placed it on the mentelpiece. Just as she did so she heard @ pistol shot, but did not know it was the one she was handling. Her husband rush- ed in from the back room to ask about it, and they found it was their pistol, and also found the hole where the ball went through the wall. The police question the accu- recy of the story of the shooting, though there is nothing to show anything but an accident so far as the victim is concerned. —_____+2-+___ A New Trial for Garvey.
