In the Court of Appeals yesterday after- noon the opinion of the court in the case of Judge Charles D. Long of Michigan against Commissioner of Pensions Lochren was filed. Judge Long applied in the court below for a writ of mandamus to compel the com- missioner of pensions to restore the pet!- tioner a pension rating of $72 a month, which rating the commissioner had reduced to $0 a month. Judge Bradley, before whom the case was heard in the court be- low, granted the writ, whereupon the com- missioner noted an appeal. In disposing of thé case the court of appeals reverses Judge Bradley, helding that the commis- stoner of pensions has the right to review the acts of his predecessors, where fraud or illegality is alleged, and also holds that a pension is not, except in a limited sense, a vested right. It is understood to be the intention of Judge Long’s counsel, Messrs. Thos. S. Hopkins and Fred A. Baker, to carry the case to the United States Supreme Court.

Jee lA QUEER OUTFIT | Peculiar Method of Getting a Livelihood by the Lively Family. In a House Made of Dry Goods Boxes They Keep a Surplus of Babies— End of the Abduction Affair. Little Mary Moran, who, as stated In yes- terday’s Star, was permitted by her mother to leave her home, No. 1324 L street south- east, In company with George Lively, a temporary resident of Congress Heights, at Lively’s request, under a pretense that the girl would have a good home with the Lively family, reached her parents’ resl- dence last évening about o'clock, dur- ing one of the heavy showers which pre- vailed about that time. She was accom- panied by a daughter of Lively, who had been with her father and Mary ever since the party left Congress Heights, Tuesday afternoon. “Mary told her mother that after leaving Congress Heights the girls were taken by Lively to Falls Church, Va., where they camped for the night. Early yesterday morning the party started for Muirkirk, Md., which brought them back through Washington. They proceeded very slowly, and upon reaching Haif street between M and N streets southeast were met by two m.en, who knew Lively, and told him that from what they had read in The Star they felt sure that the police were after him. Lively immediately became very much alarmed, and directed his daughter to take Mary at once to her own home, which she did. Mr. Mcran said last night he did not intend to excuse Lively for his conduct, and he will prosecute him to the fullest extent of the law. Walter Lively, a twelve-year-old son of George Lively, above referred to, was ar- rested yesterday under the vagrant act and charged with begging. The boy ad- mitted the charge, and said his whole family is in a desperate condition. An in- vestigation, which was made, showed that the Lively family, consisting of the father, mother, who is a mute; three daughters and a.son and three little babies, are living in a shed constructed out of dry goods boxes and barrels. It is said two of the babics were procured from a hospital in Baltimore ty Lively. Last night the entire family, who were home, comprising all the mem- bers except the father and the boy under arrest, were without anything to eat until Mr. Noran, despite the conduct of Lively toward his family, he had with him. When at Mr. house Tuesday Lively displayed a badge and card showing him to be a special de- tective. In the Police Court. Walter Lively, the twelve-year-old boy, was arraigned before Judge Kimball as a vagrant, and Lawyer Moss defended him. Sergeant Anderson and Policeman Robie appeared as witnesses and told of the character of the members of the fam- ily. They lived in South Washington two win- ters ago, and Judge Kimball said he knew all about them. “They live by begging and preying upon the community,” said Judge Kimball, “and the whole set should be sent to the work- house.” “They live on Congress Heights,” said one of the officers, “and the boy is always begging.” “There are two children at the house,” sat the other officer, “and they are called twins because they come from the same asylum. One of the officers said that they were known as gypsies. The father of the boy, he said, went to Baltimore -yesterday be- cause he was afraid he would get ar- rested on account of -his conduct concern- ing the Moran child. The boy was questioned and he said that his mother sent him out to beg. “How many of the children are sent out to beg?” Judge Kimball asked. “Two of us,” the bcy answered. The boy’s grown sister was then called and she did the best she could to get him out of trouble, but her efforts were in vain, for Judge Kimball tcld her that he knew all about the family, “and,” he said, “the officers ought to bring you all in.” “That's what we intend to do,” said the sergeant, “but the father of the boy went away befere we could get him.” Lawyer Moss made a2 plea in the boy's be- half. He said he had known the Livelys for a number of years, and he sald they are soon going to move over the line into Maryland. Where’s the boy's mother?” asked the sister of the boy. “She's out in front of the court taking care of my baby,” was her reply. “I would like to hear what she has to say about this.” “She’s deaf and dumb.” “The boy will have to give bonds in che sum of $30 or go down for sixty days.” The Women Arrested. The police followed the woman from court and arrested her, together with her mother and another sister. Nannie Lively was the name given by the mother, while the daughters, each of whom had a young baby in her arms, gave their names as Laura Gordon and Mary Jones. Lawyer Moss complained that the action of the police in arresting the women about the court was unfair, but the judge told him that he would have to make complaint elsewhere. “There's hardly any skin left on Mary Jones’ baby’s face,” said one of the offi- cers, “because the infant has been carried about in the hot sun. The officers also said that there is another woman and baby at the house. This baby and the Gordon woman’s child were taken from a Baltimore asylum. They were voluntarily surrendered by and Mary Jones’ child was temporarily because she w: tenced to the workhouse for thirty days. The mother was also sent down for one month. the court ee The First Noisy Huckster. The first case of the season brought against a huckster for violating the law in calling aloud his gcods was tried in the Police Court this morning. Willlam W. Young, a young colored man, who called “Strawberties!” at 6:45 this morning, was the defendant, and Peliceman Rice was in e e. Judge Kimball read the law to the defendant, and told him that he was not allowed at any time to call out his goods. The policeman said he had received a number of complaints about the- huck- . Judge Kimball said that as t] rst case he would take the defend personal bon sufficient wari ng to others. ———— Sinble Struck by Lightning. About 6 o’clock last evening an alarm of fire was turned in from box 618, because of the burning of the stable at the Ivy City brick yards, where there was a dis. fire only a few days ago.

What He Said Today in Answer to the Protest of Messrs. Britton and _ Parker—Mr, Truesdell Silent. The attention of Major Powell was called by a Star reporter this morning to the pro- test printed in The Star of yesterday of Messrs. M. M. Parker and A. T. Britton against -the deflection of 22d street. In re- ply to a question he said: “It is a misrepresentation of the facts, and contains many inaccuraeies. Twenty- second street was not extended beyond Decatur place, -because of the impractica- ble grades that would be encountered not only at one end, but at both ends of the strect. Twenty-thfrd street was already a street, and there is no urgent necessity for extension of 22d street. But whether 224 street is extended or not, 23d street will be needed. It is not a case of moving a street from one property to another, and the re- flection that it is is a libel unworthy of Mr. M. M. Parker. The letter you refer to stated that 22d street, if extended, would have passed directly through Washington Heights. That is not correct. Only a very small portion of {t would have been touched. Now, I would like it understood that I did not know whether Commissioner Truesdell owned any property in the line of a straight extension of 22d street or not. It would have made no difference to me at any rate. Commissioners’ private interests. are not to be considered, and I would not have changed my recommendation were Mr. Parker Commissioner now. I honestly believe the extension as represented is the Proper one. “Why, my dear sir, this matter was prac- tically settled away back there in Com- missioner Parker's time, when 22d street was selected as a street railroad route to and through Kalorama. The railroad route should be directed to a future crossing of Rock creek between Massachusetts avenue and Woodley lane, and the rovte made to penetrate the territory between Massachu- setts avenue and Connecticut avenue. That is just what I have in contemplation for the 3d section plans. A bridge across che creek is located on the line of 24th street. The Zoologica! Park can be fully served by street car accommodations.on advantage- ous and probable routes along and east- ward of Connecticut avenue. “Decatur place should be extended east- ward, and that has been and is intended. An extension now under the highway act would by its terms require a width of 90 feet. The street being a place street and the lots shallow were the reasons why the ex- tension was not entered on the highway extension plans. An extension of present width or one less than 9) feet can be made under present law whenever the public ne- a requires or the prcperty owners de- sire.” Mr. Truesdell Silent. Commissioner Truesdell declined to be in- terviewed on the subject. ——_ —_ A NEW DEPARTURE. Significance cf the Coming Here of a Salvation Army Worker. When the redeéats invaded Washington and burned the Capitol and White House in the war of 1812 quite a large force was used to accomplish the task. But this week one little red-jacketed warrior from the British Isles will enter this city and proceed tc “take the town,” as she has captured many another American city. Adjutant Isabel Wood of the Salvation Army ts coming. She Is regarded as one of the most re- markable young women in the entire army. She was born in Kent county, England, and has been in this country about five yéars. She belies her Saxon birth in ap- pearance by looking just like a little Span- ish gipsy, but if she be not British in height and coloring, she is in grit and con- questing power, Her record is considered a wonderful one. No matter how hard the work and languishing the corps to which she is sent, immediately a spirit of new life is infused, converts are many, good sol- diers are developed, and the finances seem to take care cf themselves. And this is not all the result of the personal attraction of the little adjutant. Those who know her Adjutant Wood. _ realize that the secret of her success fs in her rare spiritual power. She is called “the blessed damosel,” and a rich blessing she fas proved to be to thousands of weary, unsatisfied hearts. While she has won many lives from the depths of sin and degradation, It sometimes seems, so those familiar with her work say, as if her mission was even more to Christians who have not found that “peace and joy in believing” which is involved in their creed. The coming of Adjutant Wood to Wash- ington heralds, it is stated, a new depar- ture in Salvation Army work here. Here- tofore the local corps has been under the charge of a captain and Heutenant only, and the work has been a comparatively small one. Adjutant Woed brings with her a captain and two cadets, and hopes that in the near future she will be allowed to have a training garrison for cadets, in which event many hallelujah bonnets will be seen about our streets. The superior qualifications of the adju- tant for garrison work have kept her in it almost continuously. She comes here directly from the successful garrison in Newark, N. J. ‘The captain whom Adjutant Wood bi with her is Fanny Dunlop, a Michigan gf with a charming voice, who was chosen cut of many competitors to sing at the great concerts at the world’s fair. On the way to Chicago to accomplish her musical triumph, Captain Dunlop stopped to visit a friend, went to a Salvation Army meet- ing, was converted, and immediately en- tered a western garrison as @ cadet, and now her beautiful voice is heard night after night in the simple, touching strains cf the army hymns. Adjutant Wood will hold nightly meetings at the Salvation Army Hall, 830 Pennsylvania avenue. ———— These Won Prizes. The final examinations of the Washington Heights School took place yesterday.
