They were finally persuaded to step aside, and some of them entered and took seats in the hall. Soon they became noisy, and refusing to listen to the en- treaties of the female officers, Frank Run- dell tock a hand in the proceedings, and one of the men assaulted him. The dlow- ing of a police whistle brought Officers Sears and Sprinkle to the barra>ks, and they arrested a man who gave his name as James F. O'Connor, a plumber. He left $15 collateral for his appearance to answer charges of assault and disorder- ly conduct. When the cases were called in the Police Court this morning he failed to answer and his collateral was forfeited. aes For the United Hebrew Charities.

Frank Rooney, a pensioner, was found at Pennsylvania avenue and 2d street last right so much under the influence of liquor that he could not properly take care of himself, and Policeman Hartigan, thinking be would do the old man a kindness, had him taken to the sixth police station for safe keeping. Soon after being locked up the unfortunate man seemed to imagine he had been arrested for some serious of- fense, and rather than undergo the pub- licity and disgrace, he determined to kill himself. He had not been in the cell many minutes before he made the attempt by hanging himself, using his handkerchief as @ rope. He tied one end to a cross beam in the cell and the other around his neck, but the beam was not high enough from the ground to allow Rooney to hang, so he doubled up his legs in order to accom- plish his purpose. He was nearly uncon- scious when Stationkeeper Garner found him and cut him down. About midnight he was sent to his home on B street. ——.__ Inadequate Car Fenders. To the Editor of The Evening Star: The people of Washington are interested in the following clipping from the Tribune of yesterday: “Mary Hartnett, an inmate of the alms house on Blackwell's Island, was knocked down and fatally injured by car No. 128, cf the 3d avenue cable line, at 43d street and 3d avenue, yesterday morning. She had Started to cross 3d avenue when she saw. the approaching car and stopped. The sripman saw her and stopped, too. Then, supposing it would wait, she started acros: the tracks at the same moment that th gripman, in the belief that the woman would wait, again applied his grip. The front platform struck her and knocked her down, the fender in front of the wheels pushing her along for a few feet before the car was again brougbt to a standstill. Policeman Cavanagh, who was on the car, went to the station with the gripman and then arrested him. The Hartnett woman Was unconscious when she was removed to Bohmkamp’s drug store near by. From there she was taken to Flower Hospital, where she died. The shock she sustained is supposed to have contributed to her death. She was sixty years old.” It has been announced that ihe new cars on the Columbia road are to be equipped with “fenders” like those on the “3d ave- nue (N. Y.) line.” This is another of sev- eral instances within the past six months showing that there is no safety from “fen- der” appliances unless the fender gets under the victim and carries him or her along until the car is stopped. In this case the car was evidently just starting and moving slowly, and yet the rough usage of being crowded along on the track before a mass of wood and iron for but a few feet only was more than the woman could stand. Had the car been moving faster the fender would have rolled up on her and crushed her at once, as was the case with a child killed a month or two since on the same road, with the same fender as described in the Tribune at the time. This is a good point for The Star to keep its watchful eye on. CITIZEN. ———— Forfeited His Collateral. Special Officer Berry, who does duty at the Riggs House, had trouble with a young man who while apparently under the in- fluence of liquor last evening was noisy and profane in the hotel. Several friends of the prisoner who were present at- tempted to rescue him, but did not suc- ceed. During the trouble the special officer was struck several times. At the police statior the young man gave his name as Charles E. Brown, and was released on $15 collateral, which he forfeited in the court this morning. ———— Looking for a Missing Blind Man. Last night a telegram was received at police headquarters from Wm. Byers, at ‘Wellsville, Ohio, making inquiries about a blind man named George Fetterman, who is said to sell candy on the streets here. The police are trying to locate him. —_—._—_ Removal ef Conductor Stephens’ Re- mains. The remains of William G.
