Police Court Must Act on a Certain Line of Cases. In its decision yesterday afternoon in the case of Samuel Gassenheimer, as re- ported in The Star, the Court of Appeals held that the Supreme Court of the District does not have concurrent jurisdiction with the Police Court in the trial of offenses against the act of March 3, 189%, governing the sale of liquor. Gassenheimer, the pro- prietor of a hotel, was charged with sell- From the Police Court no appeal lies, and that the Court of Appeais might pass upon the questions raised, one of which was whether the in- formation should allege that the minor was under the age of sixteen or under twenty- one years of age, an information was filed in the criminal branch of the District Su- preme Court. In that court the Jefendant was convicted and fined $50, and an appeal was thereupon noted to the Court of Ap- peals. The appellate court holds that the section of the act of 1893 seeking to give the District Supreme Court concurrent jurisdiction is inconsistent and ‘nvalid. ‘The provision of the law requiring that infor- mations shall be filed in the Police Court by the attorney for the District is, says the appellate court, mandatory, and there is no necessity for allowing*that provision to be superseded by any other provision ct the act. To allow the District Supreme Court concurrent jurisdiction, holds the court, would be to largely ellminate that provision of the law which secks to give speedy and summary justice without the consequent delay resulting from a multi- tude of appeals. The contention that the act refers to the sale to minors only under the age of sixteen is not sustained, and the court below is directed to vacate its judgment because of its want of jurisdic- tion. The effect of the decision is to hold that the Police Court has exclusive juris- diction in the trial of offenses against the act of 1893. : 5 Se STUDENTS IN REVOLT. They Resent the Suspension of the College Editor. Some months ago the students of the To- ronto University invited two believers in the Henry George tax doctrine and free thought in general to lecture before their literary society. Principal Louden forbade the lecture and the “Varsity,” the college organ, severely criticised the action of the principal. Forest, the editor, was suspend- ed. This resulted in a lockout, the stu- dents refusing to attend lectures. At a recent sitting of the local legislature a commission was appointed to investigate the affairs of the university, and this com- mission held its first sitting yesterday. Chief Justice Taylor, as chairman, called upon the students to formulate _ their charges. This they refused to do, declin- ing to be placed in the position of accusers. It s the business of the commission, they contended. to make an independent investigation. This brought affairs to a deadlock and the commission adjourned until tomorrow. . —_—_—__+e+—___ Priest Karminski and the twelve mem- bers of his congregation of Omaha who have been on trial two days for burning St. Paul’s Church will be released and the ed. case dismis Nicotine Neutralized CHEW AND SMOKE MUAJOG POUCH TOBACCO.

Gully Chosen Speaker of the House of Commons. GENERAL FOREIGN TOPICS LONDON, April 10.—In regard to the re- port which has reached here from New York that the British sloop-of-war Wild Swan has joined the Royal Arthur, the flagship of the British Pacific squadron, at Panama, preparatory to their expected de- parture for Corinto, Nicaragua, to enforce the ultimatum of Great Britain (demand- ing $75,000 indemnity for the expulsion from Nicaragua of Mr. Hatch, the British consular agent at Bluefields), it is stated that the announcement is premature. At the admiralty today in reply to ques- tions on the subject it was said that no orders had been given to the Wild Swan or Royal Arthur which would warrant the statements made. The Times this morning in an editorial on the situation says: “If we are compelled to collect the cus- toms Nicaragua will, presumably, have to pay the costs of the collection in addi- tion to the indemnity. She will find it less troublesome and cheaper to settle with us forthwith. Her efforts to excite the jeal- cusy of America have failed. The justice and good sense of the Americans have proved too strong for the success of this characteristic. maneuver. The Americans had only to hear our case and demands to acknowledge that our conduct was rea- sonable and just and to admit that our claims were of such a character as they would themselves have made under similar circumstances. We have assured America that we are not seeking fresh territory. Our object is to obtain an adequate apol- cgy for a wrong done and the payment of the compensation which we believe to be_our due.” ‘The Globe this afternoon, commenting.on the same subject, remarks: “Like other Certral American’ republics given to pull- ing the lion’s tail, Nicaragua hoped that Washirgton would flare up in behalf of the Monroe doctrine. But President Cleveland, upon inquiring into the matter, discovered that the quarrel did not concern America. It would be intolerable were the Monroe dcetrine so wrenched as to cover such in- ternational outrages as that of which Nicaragua has been guilty. Fortunately for the continuance of friendly relations between these two great nations, there is far less disposition than formerly in Amer- ica to take advantage of every opportunity to hurl defiance at England. Sensible Amer- icans recognize that the Monroe doctrine, theugh founded on an excellent principle, requires to be enforced with prudence and discretion.” GULLY ELECTED SPEAKER. The Parnellites Voted Against the Government. LONDON, April 10.—Mr. William Court Gully, member of parliament from Car- lisle, the government candidate, was elected speaker of the house of commons today in succession to Sir Arthur Wellesley Peel, who resigned on Monday last, by the nar- row majority of eleven. The Parnellites voted against the government. Mr. Gully, in politics, is a liberal, who supports Mr. Gladstone's Irish policy. ‘The house was crowded at noon, when the mace was brought in by the sergeant- at-arms and placed on the table, whereupon all the members uncovered their heads. Mr. Samuel Whitebread, member for Bed- ford, a liberal, who has been a member of the house of commons committee of selec- tions since 1 nominated Mr. Gully for the speakership. Sir John R. Mowbray, member for Oxford University, conservative, who had been chairman of the committee of selection gince 1874, nominated Sir Matthew W. Rid- ley, consevative member for the Blackpool division of Lancashire, and the conserva- tive leader in the house of commons, Mr. A. J. Balfour, supported Sir Matthew Rid- ley’s nomination. Sir William Vernon Harcourt, chancellor of the exchequer, the liberal leader, said that he regretted that Mr. Balfour had given a party character to the proceedings. ‘The vote resulted in ayes, 285; noes, 274. WILL REPLY TO MR. MORGAN. The Earl of Kim Bering § erly to Speak on the en Question. LONDON, April 10.—The Earl of Kim- berly probably will lay before the house of commons an elaborate reply to Senator Morgan's speech in the United States Sea- ate on the Bering sea question. The reply was prepared by Sir Julian Pauncefote, and is an analysis of Mr. Morgan’s statements, showing them, it is stated, to be erroneous in fact in many particulars and unjust in their conclusions. The subject is handled in the form of a report from Sir Julian as to the status of negotiations for paying claims of masters of Canadian sealers seized in Bering sea. It shows that Mr. Morgan erred in stating that fictitious val- ues had been put on some of the vessels and cargoes seized. It also appears, it is statel, that Mr. Morgan’s statement that interest was added is erroneous, as no in- terest was included. The total amount is declared to be only about half of a just and reasoaable allowance, and to have been agreed to as a compromise against the wish of the Canadian masters, although they finally agreed to a reduction of their claims. The subject will be presented to parlia- ment mainly for tne purpose of correcting alleged misapprehensions created by Mr. Morgan’s statements in the American Con- gress. The Radical Victory in Denmark. COPENHAGEN, April 10.—The great radical victory in the general elections for members of the lower house of the Danish diet, when sixty-one radicals were elected, a gain of fifteen seats for that party,causes immense excitement and augurs badly for a peaceful settlement of the political situa- tion. The defeat of the conservatives in Copenhagen was entirely unexpected. ae ELECTIONS I EW Reform Candidate at Camden Beaten —Other Results. Municipal elections were held in New Jersey yesterday. The most interesting fight was at Camden. Westcott, republi- can, was chosen mayor over Hatch, the committee of one hundred’s candidate, by a small figure. The republicans swept Trenton, electing Emory N. Yard, their candidate fer mayor, by 2,500 majority and seducing materially the present democrati¢ minorities in com- men council and the county board of free- holders. The present mayor of Trenton, Dr. Shaw, is a democrat. Lack of organ- ization and apathy upon the part of the democrats is believed to account for the result. Paterson was carried by the democrats. Christian Braum was re-elected mayor over John A. Van Winkle, republican, by abeut 3,500 majority. Republicans carried Jersey City by 1,500. Trey also won at Elizabeth, Rahway, Kearney, Orange, East Orange, New Brunswick, Newark. Democrats carried Lambertville, Hobo- ken, Mont Clair, Bayonne and Harrison. Mrs. Marshall was defeated at Mont Clair for the position on the school board by 28 majority. ‘The question of license or no license was the leading issue at Haddonfield. The vote was: License, 61; no license, 299. The town has been prohibition for eighteen years, and it will continue so for three years more. —___+-e+_____ Will Build Two School Houses.

Billy Williams Changes His Mind About Talking—Desmond Ready to Come Here—Some Proofs. So far as could be ascertained this morn- ing, the detectives had obtained no addi- tional proof in the case of the two men, ‘Eddy” Desmond and “Billy” Williams, under arrest on suspicion of complicity in the safe robbery at the office of the Wash- ington Ferry Company’ ten days ago, al- trough they are stil}. ffivestigating the case. “Eddy” Desmond.is still safe in the Alexandria jail, while ‘sBilly” Williams was committed to the jail ‘here today by the Police Court to await the arrival of the Alexandria prisoner. { _ Yesterday afternoon thé detectives felt elated over the prospécts of “Billy” Will- iams making a clean ;breast of the affair. ‘As printed in yesterday's Star, he was in- terviewed yesterday at police headquarters by Inspector Hollinberger, but he had noth- ing of interest to say ghout the case, deny- ing any knowledge whatever of the safe burglary, and he was;returned to the po- lice statien. During the afternoon a tele- phone message was received from the station ¢o the effect thaf ‘Billy’ Williams was ready to talk. tehd. F This gave the officers the impression that he was ready to make a confession, and Inspector Hcllinberger went to the station to see him. He concluded, however, that he would not hear his statement until this morning, after he had seen the district, at- torney regarding any promises he might make Williams. But this morning it was too late, for Williams had changed his mind, and promptly told the officers that poke oulienyy nothing except to repeat his enial. Innocence Protested. Lawyer Bendheim, who is counsel for Desmond, told a Star reporter this morning that his client is now ready to return to this city and stand trial. “The authorities,” sald Mr. Bendheim, “nave nothing against my client, and he is tired of staying in the Alexandria jail. He is not guilty of the crime charged, and is anxious to get out of prison.” Lawyer Eugene J. B. O'Neill, counsel for “Billy” Williams, also declares that hia client is innocent. “The officers have made a mistake,” he said to a reporter, “and I think they are now anxious to get the men off their hands.” Friends of Desmond, talking about the case, protest his innocence, and assert that the safe rohbery was done by others, one of whom was familiar with the company’s business. Police Confident. On the other hand the police seem confi- dent that they have the right men and hope to get additional evidence. The miss- ing man, “Jack,” who was known at Jack- son City as “Eddy’s” partner, has not yet been located, although, it is said, the offi- cers have a clue to his whereabouts. The finding of scorched money on Des- mond the police regard as an extremely suspicious circumstance, and the finding of the twine on the boat at Jackson City, similar to that used in binding Fonschell, the watchman, the officers think makes It evident that the burglars were at Jackson City before the crime was committed, and that they crossed the river in a boat. ‘As printed yesterday the officers suspect- ed «hat Desmond was one of the second- story workers, who had operated in the county, and yesterday afternoon Miss Ben- nett, daughter of Dr. Harrison Bennett of ‘Takoma, went to Alexandria with Detec- tive Boardman to see Desmond. Miss Ben- nett saw the burglar who was in her house at Takoma, but she was certain that Desmond is rot the man whom she saw. During the investigation of this case the officers learned that some burned money, probably a portion of the proceeds of the Clark robbery, was redeemed at the Treas- ury Department shortly after that robbery, and they may possibly arrest the man who had it redeemed, and ascertain if pos- sible from where he got it., A Continaanec. : When Lawyer O'N@it appeared in Judge Miller's court in the interest of Williams he made complaint against the police be- cause of the troublehe -had to see his clicnt, and charged that the police were trying to extort a cenfession from him. Counsel said that his $ient was ready and anxious for a hearing, and asked that the preliminary cxamination be had today. ‘This the prosecuting officer said could not be done. The court granted a continuance until next Tuesday, and fixed thé bond at $2,000. eae a Yale's Easter Trip. The Yale nine started on its southern trip this morning. They will be pitted against the Georgetown College nine to- morrow in this city. Their other games are: April 12, Norfolk League, at Norfolk; April 18, University of Virginia, at Rich- mond; April 16, Baltimore League, at Bal- timore; April 17, New York League, at New York. ‘The following men were taken: Batter: Greenway and Carter; first base, Stephei son; second baseman, Redington; shortstop, J.

EASTER EGG ROLLING Children Will Take Possession of the White House Grounds Monday. The Necessary Orders Have Been Given, but There Has Been No Provision for a Band. The grounds immediately south of the White House will be thrown open to the children for their Easter picnic, as usual, on Monday next. The President has given his consent to their use, and Col. Wilson, who is in charge, has issued the necessary instructions. Easter egg rolling in the White House grounds is one of the ple antest institutions in the District, and forms a bright spot in the lives of our en- tire juvenile porulation. Every Easter Monday the children are given the freedom of the grounds to romp and to play and to picnic to their hearts’ content. They can roll their eggs down the grassy knolls and spread their luncheons on the lawns, and, in fact, do anything their fancy dictates, and big policemen will be present to see that they are not disturbed in thelr inno- cent enjoyment. * Absence of a Band. There will be probably one serious draw- back, however, to this year’s Easter picnic, and that will be the absence of the Marine Band. The band is now out of the city, but even if it should return in time, it Is said, it will not be ordered out for the chil- dren’s benefit on Monday. During the Har- rison administration the band was always ordered to make music for the children on Easter, but for some unexplained reason President Cleveland is opposed to the pres- ence of the band on these occasions, and the band has been noticeable by its absence for the past two years. During the pre- vious four years music was one of the most attractive features of the occasion, and the children were very much disap- pointed when they were deprived of it. It added zest to their pleasure and aided ma- terially in their singing and dancing on the green. An effort will be made to induce the President to revoke his rule against musie for this year’s festivities. In case the Marine Band does not get back in time there is the artillery band at the Washing- ton barracks and the cavalry band at Fort Myer that can be utilized for the purpose without much trouble. — REPORTS SUBMITTED. Washington Presbytery Concludes Its Labors and Closes Its Session. The spring meeting of the Washington presbytery closed with the session last evening at Gunton Temple Memorial Chureh. During the afternoon and evening number of reports of committees and churches were received, the most important of which was the report of the committee on narrative to the general assembly. The narrative is a report in substance of the condition of religion in this city, and especially of the work of the Presbyterian churches. In the main, the condition ,re- ported was satisfactory and encouraging, although the report contained the state- ment that the series of Moody meetings held last spring had hardly resulted in the great spiritual awakening that had been hoped for. There has been, however, a net gain during the year in the number of ad- missions on professions of faith. The report of the Sabbath school commit- tee was received, and a resolution was passed charging the committee with the duty of collecting all statistics possible with reference to young people's societies. The report of the board of education made an urgent plea for more money to carry on the work, and argued for an increase in the number of ministerial candidates, the number now being on the decrease as compared with the number of communi- cants. Mr. Orville W. Brown of Gunton Temple Memorial and Mr. Robert Bagnall, a young colored man, were recommended to the care of the presbytery as students in theology. Both candidates were formally received. The committee on the installation of Rev. D. W. Skellinger as pastor of the Sixth Presbyterian Church reported through Dr. Bittinger. The meeting adjourned, after passing resolutions of thanks to the of- ficers and ladies of the church for the hospitalities extended. WARNED AGAINST INGERSOLL. Bishop Chatard Writes to Catholics in Indiana. A letter bearing the signature of Bishop Chatard has been sent to the Roman Cath- olie congregations of Indianapolis. The bishop warns his people against that doc- trine of which Col. Robert G. Ingersoll 1s the chief exponent. In commenting upon the views of the infidel the bishop said, without mentioning Ingersoll by name: “The Bible, which is God’s word to us, both foretells these events and relates them as coming about in time. It is precisely for this reason that the enemies of God and His revelation attack it and strive to rid- icule it—impudent and barefaced assertions which have been met and answered time and again by learned men, not mounte- banks or superficial gatherers of objections from foes of the faith, who, though astray, yet were learned.’ ——_—o+—____ Her Willingness Saved Her. John M. Brunsen, a Swede, residing at Bridgeport, Conn., who was reported drowned on the Elbe, while returning from a visit home, has turned up safe and mar- ried. He bought a ticket for the Elbe, but changed his mind when he saw his way clear to a successful courtship. He has brought his wife with him. They arrived on the Hekla after a stormy passage of twenty-three days. SILVER IN THE AIR The Illinois Democratic State Con- "vention to Settle the Question. INTEREST IN ADMINISTRATION CIRCLES What It is Desired the President Should Do. MR. STEVENSON’S POSITION What is in the air out in Illinois? This question is of very great interest in edministraticn circles. The calling of a democratic state convention out there to censider.the silver question, and the in- vitation extended to the President to visit Chicago at an early day and deliver an address on the finances, are provoking no end of discussion. The purpose of those issuing the invitation clearly is to play the President against the convention, and If not thereby to break up that body when it shall meet, certainly to seriously embarrass it. The President has not committed him- self. He received the committee cordially, and said he would consider the matter. No dcubt exists, of course, as to his feelings in the premises. The convention is ex- pected to declare for free coinage, and he is opposed to that. He would probably be willing to deliver .several addresses if he could prevent it. But would an address from him, delivered at Chicago, or any- where, prevent it? Is not the action of the sucker democracy on that subject al- ready as good as declared? A Letter Wanted. Failing to secure a visit and an address from the President the sound money demo- crats of Illinois will try to induce him to write a letter, giving his views up to date and outlining the course he thinks the party ought to pursue at this time. Some expression from him is considered import- ant, for use not onty in Illinois, but else- where. The silver democrats are every- where active, and the fear of the sound money faction is that unless a counter demonstration of some kind is made by them the party will be thoroughly pledged to free coinage before the next presidential race begins. The President is said to feel somewhat hampered by an intimation that this demonstration in Illinois is likely to bene- fit Mr. Stevenson in the end. It is not charged that the Stevenson men engineer- ed the convention call, or that when the convention meets the Stevenson presiden- tial boom will be conspicuously in evi- dence, but it is pointed out pretty plainly that the movement is distinctly in line with the Vice President’s views, and that his friends at home and elsewhere are earnestly advocating an aggressive fight for silver. The argument is, therefore, that any formal declaration for free silver by the Illinois democracy must result in forwarding the fortunes of Mr. Stevenson among the free silver forces, and in in- creasing interest in him everywhere as to his availability for the presidential race. Senator Palmer is against free coinage, and Colonel Morrison is accounted @ con- servative on the subject. It is Mr. Steven- son who has always declared for free coinage, and it is to him, his friends de- clare, that his party must turn for aggres- sive and progressive championship if it possesses the strength at home to shape the deliverance of a state convention. Somewhat Embarrassing. It is conceded that this view of the situa- tion is well calculatéd-to somewhat embar- rass the President. The question in the last analysis is, of course, one of principle, and not of personalities. The President is opposed to free silver, and nobody doubts that he will throw the whole weight of his office and Influence into the scale when the time comes, But will he care to do this at a time when the first effect might appear to enlist him against his yokemate'’s pres- idential candidacy? Would not a deliver- ance from him to the Illinois democrats, whether spoken or written, in time to af- fect the deliberations of the convention that has beer called,have an anti-Stevenson flavor and no other? Will not it be time for him to speak later, and in circumstances that will prevent the putting of any un- pleasant personal interpretation on his ut- terances? The country is not in doubt as to his attitude on the finances. It is not as if he were halting between two opinions or two courses, and his friends undecided as to which course they should pursue. And so, it is suggested, the President may in the end decide to postpone any participa- tion in this latest phase of the controversy until he can feel entirely safe from any imputation of mustering with those inimi- cal to the fortunes of the Vice President. Cleveland and Stevenson. This incident gives rise to renewed talk about the relations existing between Mr. Cleveland and Mr. Stevenson. Reports have more than once represented the two men as sustaining cnly the most formal re- lations toward each other. This is denied outright by those in position to know. It is no secret that they differ widely on the Toney question and on other questions, and that this fact has drawn to each man a certain following that had felt repelled by the views of the other. The one is for free coinage and the other is against it, and many democrats have ranged them- selves under the banners of the two men accordingly. But the two men themselves are in every way friendly. Mr. Cleveland is said to esteem Mr. Stevenson most high- ly*for those popular qualities which have brought him so close to the people, while Mr. Stevenson is represented as testifying to those qualities of Mr. Cleveland which are the vasis.of the boasts of all the Presi- dent’s friends. Mr. Stevenson, while not a frequent caller at the White House, is among the favored ones when he does call, and is always admitted without a moment's delay into the President's presence. But, of course, a split must come if Mr. Stevenson is to lead the free coinage demo- crats in the next national campaign. No- body expects the President in any circum- stances to support such a policy under any- body’s leadership. The belief rather is that he would imigate an humble example and take to the woods—not to say to Woodley— and remain during the whole of the cam- paign. _—__—_+©+—______—_ THE MEMPHIS DRILL. Hibernian Rifles Will Not Be Able to Go. The Hibernian Rifles of this city will not enter the interstate drill at Memphis. The prospects for the company taking the trip appeared unusually bright until Monday evening. Arrangements had been complet- ed for the use of Center Market Hall as a drill ground,and tickets for a contemplated entertainment had been printed. When the drill team assembled at the armory, how- ever, a committee, which had been appoint- ed to look into the matter, reported against the trip and the report was adopted. The inability of Capt. Walsh to guarantee a full attendance at the brigade camp of the National Guard in June and a financial dis- appointment are stated as the reasons why the company will not be seen in the Ten- nessee city next month. Another surprise in the drill line is the existence of a strong possibility that the Emmet Guard, which took first prize in the maiden drill at Little Rock last July, will go to Memphis. Capt. Harry Walsh has been urged to enter the drill by a number of influential persons, who guaran- tee to raise the necessary cash to cover ex- penses. Althopgh the time for preparation is brief, Capt. Walsh stated to a Star re- porter that he is strongly tempted and means to give the matter serious considera- tion. If it is decided to make the trip the Emmets will begin drilling before the close of the present week. The Corcoran Cadet Corps is drilling nightly in preparation for the contest, but it may be well to state that the company will be unable to attend both the Memphis drill and the National Guard camp. As it is a certainty that Gen. Ordway will not excuse any organization from camp, the knowing ones are of the opinion that the Corcorans will not compete in the big drill. Capt. Shilling of the Morton Cadets states that he will take more men to camp than he is to carry to Memphis, and if financial difficulties are overcome, the company will make the trip. Of course, the National Fencibles will defend the cup without the possibility of a doubt. ‘The Fencibles are greatly pleased over AUCTION SALES. BOARDING . » CITY ITEMS.

In her letter accepting the sponsor- ship Miss Snowden expressed the hope that the Galveston cup may be won by the Fene cibles again and remain their well-merited prize always. “I send a word of welcome to this most gallant company,” she concluded, “of the fairest and best beloved city of our land, and say to them that among the many who wait to greet them, with hearts beating high with patriotic fervor, 's their sponsor.” ‘The military advisory committee of the drill association has adopted a rule that sponsors will not be allowed to entertain their companies during the drill outside of the camp. This was done, it is stated, for the reason that proper discipline cannot be maintained if the men are allowed to ac- cept invitations away from camp, and to insure for the men the best condition when they are called to the field. —_——— Proposed Arbitration in bedanoryee fy ‘The O'Neill arbitration bill passed Wisconsin assembly last week without @ word of argument and with only fourteeh dissenting votes.
