Some Misunderstandirg at a Meeting of the Colored Lot Owners. A meeting of the Protective Association of Lot and Site Owners in Graceland ceme- tery was held last night in the Mt. Pisgah A. M. E. Zion Church, on 10th and R streets, and although three or four hundred people assembléd they were disappointed by the non-appearance of the officials of the association. The association was re- cently organized among the colored people of this city to protest against the further removal of bedies from Graceland. Dr. rancis was, without his consent , elected president, and there was appointed a ccmmittee of five to de- vise Ways and means to restrain the trus- tees of the cemetery association from the further removal of the dead from the cem- etery. No member of the committee ap- peared at the meeting of last night, and after waiting for more than an hour H. A. Davis, who presided at the teenth Street Baptist Church meeting, called the people to order and had the minutes of the previous meeting read. This did not seem to throw any light upon the object for which the meeting of last night was called, and the people began to leave the church. _ Those who remained were requested to come forward and sign their names as members of the association. The business of the meeting was then declared by Mr. Davis as being over. At this juncture Dr. J. T. Jenifer of the Metropolitan A. M. E. Church, Dr. F. J. Grimke, Prof. J. W. Cromwell end Mr. Daniel Murray arrived and expressed much surprise that the peo- ple had been sent home without having ex- plained to them the object for which the meeting was called. It was then er- tained that nearly all who were present were lot or site owners in Graceland, and were anxious to co-operate with the as- sociation along some lines to secure the protection of the graves of their dead friends at Graceland. Another Meeting Arranged. Tho secretary of the association, W. P. Hart, Mr. Murray and Mr. Davis held a conference, and it was decided that there should be called another meeting at an early date, and that the colored people of the city should be well notified of the meet- ng. Dr. John R. Francis, who was elected as the president of the ‘association, has ex- pressed unwillingness to accept until he has made a thorough study of the condition of affairs at Graceland and at Woodland, the new burial ground, which has been se- lected for the burial of those bodies which ere nct claimed by their friends. IMPROVING HARPER'S FERRY. Indications of New Enterprise on the Part of the B. and ©. Mr@&. B. Hege, district passenger agent of the Baltimore and Ohio system, was asked this morning if there was any truth in the statement coming from Hagerstown that his road contemplated making im- provements at Harper’s Ferry, including the erection of a palatial hotel that would cost $1,000,000. “I do not know anything about such an intention,” said Mr. Hege, “but I do know that the Baltimore and Ohio people have for a long time regarded Harper's Ferry as being not only an undeveloped, but really neglected place of nationai interes! Other railroad men spoken to’ in regard to the matter said they had heard rumors about a great expenditure by the Baltimore and Ohio at Harper's Ferry and believed something in the nature of a great resort would be established there. They all agreed that the historic spot, with its manifold natural beauties, would make a remunerative field for investment in the line indicated, and several expressed surprise that the Baltimore and Ohio had not taken advantage of it long ago. ——— George Parry’s furniture to 166 West Monroe street, destroyed by fire last night. estimated at $150,000. FUNDS ARE NEEDED The Gentral Union Mission Trying to Gzt Out of Debt, Plans Adopted by Which This Result is Expected to Be Reached. At the regular weckly meeting yesterday of the board of directors of the Central Union Mission steps were taken to re- organize and enlarge the building com- mittee, and it was determined to enter upon a vigorous and aggressive campaign in be- half of the payment of the debt on the building. The board is conferring with some of the prominent business men of the city, who have always shown a deep interest in the mission, and their co-opera- tion is relied upon. A mass meeting will be held in the mission auditorium: next Sunday at 7:45 p.m., to be addressed by a pumber of citizens who are interested. The object of the meeting will be to em- phasize the existing needs, and arouse enthusiasm in the present movement. The mission was never more active and pros- Perous than at present, but the maturing of obligations makes it necessary to give Special attention to its finances, The board hes prepared.a statement to the public, in which it say “The whole debt on the building is $42, 000, of which $30,000 is secured by a first trust, and $12,000 by a second trust. The second trust matures at the rate of $1,000 quarterly, two payments, amounting to $2,000, being now past due and unpaid. ‘The building committee is endeavoring to meet these obligations in two ways: First, by endeavoring to secure 1,000 pledges of fifty cents each per month, the income from which would aggregate $500 a month, or 36,000 a year, to meet the quarterly pay- ments of principal and interest. About 650 such pledges have already been made, while 350 more are needed. At the same time the committee is endeavoring to pay off by larger subscriptions the present de- ficit of $2,000 and as much more of the principal as possible. It is deemed advis. able to continue efforts in both of the di- rections and the board of directors has appealed to the beneyolent public to aid it in meeting the present demands. Con- tributions may be sent either to Mr. A. L. Swartout, ‘secretary, or Judge I. G. Kim- ball, chairman, 622 Louisiana avenue.” —— Convention of Educators. The thirty-fourth annual convention of the National Education Association was opened at Denver,-Col., yesterday after- nocn before two large audiences. The reg- ular meeting was at the Central Presby- terlan Church, where 4,000 people were gathered, whiie 2,000 attended an overfiow at the High School building, and thousands more were turned away in disappointment. It is asserted the attendance is already larger than at any previous meeting of the association. The work of the council of educaiion was completed, and the next three days will be devoted to the labors of the general organization. BORN. JONES. On July 8, 1895, unto Mr. and Mrs. J. Hy.
