E, Church, corner of #12 and C streets northwest.

The memorial meeting which will be held tomorrow evening at the Metropolitan” M. E.

Justice Harlan will preside, and the orator of the evening will be Mr. E. D. Bassett of Philadelphia, who for eight years was minister to Haiti. The ar- rangements are in the hands of a com- mittee from the Bethel Literary Union, under whose auspices the meeting will be held. The music for the occasion will be furnished by the choir of the Metropolitan AFFAIRS IN ALEXANDRIA Funeral of a Much-Respected Citizen To- day. Many Local Notes of General and Especial Interest and Import- ance to Residents, The funeral of Mr. Thomas Leadbeater tcok place from his late residence, on North Washington street, this morning at 10 c’clock, and was attended by a large num- ber of sorrowing friends. Rev. Theron H. Rice of the Second Presbyterian .Church conducted the funeral service, and Messrs. A. G. Uhler, John J. Jamieson, Frederick Paff, W. E. Latham, Luther H. Thompson and Worth Hultish, all of whom are dea- cons in the Second Presbyterian Church, of which Mr. Leadbeater was a devoted seful memfer, and for the past ive years its treasurer, acted as pallbearérs. Mr. Leadbeater’s death was one of the saddest known in this city for some time past, andscoming so ddenly as hout warning, was a great shock’ to the community,where he held the respect of all who knew him. : Saturday he had been about his duties all day, and went to his residence in the after- noon apparently in the best of health. He started upstairs about 6 o'clock, and when he got about half way fell, and before any one had reached him life was extinct. Phy- siclans say that death was due to heart failure. At the itme of his death he was secretary of the Alexandria Water Com- pal which position he had held for sev- eral years, prior to which he was associated with his brother, Dr. E. 8. Leafbeater, in the wholesale and retail drug business. He was a prominent volunteer fireman, and identified with every thing concerning the welfare of the city. A wife and five chil- dren, one of which is only a few days old, survive him. A Quiet Sunday. Owing to the swelterirg heat of yester- day, the congregations in the various churches were not as lerge as usual. The resident rectors officiated, and interesting sermons were preached. In the Episcopal churches the holy communion was celk- brated at the morning service. Mr. W. D. Buckner of the Theological Seminary de- livered an interesting address at the Rail- road Mission Chapel in the afternoon. Dur- ing the afterncon many strangers came down on the ferry boat from Washington and took the electric cars for New Alex- andria, Riverside Park, Mount Vernon and the Driving Park, in search of a cool breeze. No arrests were made by the po- lice during the day or night. A Disorderly Crowd. Saturday night there was some little excitement in Muir's alley, in the southern part of the city, where a crowd of young white men became disorderly in front of the house occupied by a Mrs. Oders. It seems that one of their companions named Parker was on the inside of the house and they were looking for him, but were re- fused admission by the owner of the house. Two of the Men forced their way in and were very disorderly. The police arrested the whole crowd, and the guilty ones were M. E. Church, the Amphion Glee Club, Miss Louise Hamer and the Douglass Me- morial Jubilee Singers. fined by the mayor this morning. Police Court. In the police court this morning Mayor Strauss disposed cf ten cases, as follows: Charles Phillips and Charles Noland, charged with fighting. Phillips being the aggressor, was fined $. Wm. Clark, Jos- eph Clark, George Rogers, Edward Parker, George Walker, Daniel Young and William Nelson, charged with disorderly conduct. The first four were fined $1 each and the balance dismissed. Notes. There will be a free lecture on mission work in India by a ccnverted Brahmin at the Second Presbyterian Church tomorrow afternoon. ‘The local con:mittee of the Brotherhood of St. Andrew will meet at Pohick Church tomorrow night. Abcut twenty-five mem- bérs from this city will attend the meeting. Miss Marshall of Fauquier is the guest of Miss Courtenay Norton on Prince street.

Dunn; | A SAD CASE. Young Woman's Mind U Through Suffering. A sad case, involving the mental condi- tion of a down-fallen woman, with no chance of a prosecution against the man who is resporsible for her present condi- tion, came to light yesterday, and thé un- fertunate woman is now in safe hands, and may again find herself safe in her father’s home. The name by which this g00d-look- ing young women is known is Lizzle Gough. She is only twenty-four years old, and has been in the “Division” ‘for several months, having come to this city and en- tered one of the gilded palaces because of the manner in which she had been deceived and deserted. She was unlike the average woman lead- ing a life of shame. She was not vulgar and profane as are most of them, and while in one of the hovses she remained in her room most of the time and did not seem anxious to associate with other women. She had not always lived in such circles, and this new life did not suit her. Her conscience troubled her, but just what to do she did not know. Being unaccustomed te the ways of the world she did not know how to tear herself away from these as- scciates. So much was she troubled about her conduct that she was made sick, and abcut two weeks ago she had to be sent ta the hospital. She remained there until a few days ago, when she was discharged. Where to go she did not know, and finally she returned tc the dive in the “Divisicn,” and there she was found by Policeman Boyce Saturday evening. The kind-hearted policeman took her to the police station, where the matron tcok charge of her and made her comfort- able in one of the witness rooms. * Her queer conduct had caused the belief that she was suffering from mental troubi and the police physicians who examine her yesterday reported that her grind unbalanced. She will now be sent to the insane asy- lum or sent to her father’s home, if the whereabouts of his home can be ascer- tained. lancea _-_o ADVANCE IN BAKERS’ WAGES, The Union Men Held a Celebration Saturday Night. It was not exactly all work and no pay, but less work and more pay that the union bakers celebrated Saturday in their jubilee at Arion Hall, on 8th street. The specific cause of joy was the restoration of the old wages of $2.50 a day as a minimum, and the allowance of two hours off duty on Fridays. The occasion was shared in by As sembly 2887, Knights of Labor, and 118 of the International Union. Chairman Meyers, of the committee of nine, called the meet- final account of Addison A. Ashburn, former guardian, filed, and order on Thos. M. Fields, guardian, to pay money to former guardian. Estate of Jno. W.

There are signs of strained relations be- tween the New ¥ork and New Jersey bridge companies, which jointly obtained the passage of an act by Congress author- izing the construction of a brid«e across the Huéson river at New York. Several days ago the New Jersey company sybmit- ted to the War Department a plan for a suspension bridge, designed by its engi- neer, Mr. Morrison, contemplating a clear span cf 3,08) feet, as required by the de- partment. Since then Secretary Lamont has received a notice from the New York company that it will submit a separate plan for a bridge, so it may be necessary for the Secretary himseif to decide this question as between the two companies. Meanwhile only five days remain of the time allowed by Congress for the presenta- tion to the department of a satisfactory plan for the bridge. o——____ Minister Ransom’s Leave. Mr. M. W.

Saturday afternoon Inspector Hollin- berger received from the Boston police au- thorities a letter giving information con- cerning Eugene Boyens, the man who dealt in all sorts of merchandise and property, and made a specialty of giving cigar cer- tificates in return therefor. A photograph accompanied the letter, and it is thought to be a likeness of the al- leged swindler, who is wanted both here and in Boston. In Boston this man is known as Charles H. Carleton. When Boy- ens rented a room in the Washington Loan and Trust building, he gave the name of Charles C. Carreo of Boston as reference, and the Boston officers say that Boyens or Carleton was at one time connected with him. Carreo, the police say, is also known as John C. Kane, the cigar dealeron whom Boyens gave the cigar certificates. The Boston chief says Boyens is"wanted in that city and asks that he be arrested if pos- sible and held until he can be sent for. —_—.—_ Died Suddenly. ‘There was a sudden death on the steamer River Queen last evening, just after the boat left Marshall Hall on the return trip, but Capt.
