WILL BE CONFINED Walterman Bagaly Tried for Draw- ing a Revolver. EVIDENCE AS 10 SANITY He Will Be Taken Back to St, Elizabeth. i MEDICAL TESTIMONY ee Walterman Bagaly, who is figuring in divorce. proceedings instituted by his wife, who is an Italian countess, as printed in yesterday's Star, was not sent to the in- sane asylum yesterday afternoon, for the reason that Prosecuting Attorney Mul- lowny concluded to reopen the case and let the court take the responsibility of sending Lim across the river. The proceedings, it js said, will have an important bearing on the divorce case, and that is probably the reason the prosecuting officer did not want it ended without the judge passing upon it. Bagaly, as stated yesterday, was arrested because he drew a pistol on Lawyer Henry Wiswell, who had taken testimony for the countess in the divorce proceedings. When the case was called in Judge Mil- ler’s court this morning the prisoner's coun- sel, Lawyer J. J. Johnson, said he was very much surprised last evening when -he heard that the case had been reopened. Yesterday, he safd, he had his witnesses in court and was ready to prove the mental incapacity of his client. Bagaly, he said, was willing to return to the asylum, and a preparations for sendfng him there were le. ~ Before Judge Kimball. Judge Miller said that he was personally acquainted with some of the persons, and for this and other reasons he desized that Judge Kimball should hear the case. Lawyer Johnson, his cl'ent and others in- terested In the case, went before Judge Kimball, where counsel made a statement of the case. The defendant, said counsel Was once condemned by a jury and sent across to the asylum. He was released from the asylum, and recently he found himself in the midst of domestic difficulties, and Tuesday he was arrested on the charge of concealed weapons. Counsel explained that he wanted his client sent over to the asylum, but he did not want him to go there with a charge pending against him. Mr. Mullowny said that the charge had been made and he did not care to ignore the complaint made by a citizen. If the complainant will withdraw the charge then the defendant might be returned to the asylum. “What have you to say about this?” Law- yer Wiswell was asked. “In my opinion,” answered the complain- ant, “it was a case of a drunken man with a pistol.” “Then you don’t want to withdraw the charge?” “No, sir.” In the Asylum. Dr. Stack of St. Elizabeth's Asylum testi- fled that the defendant had been in the asylum for several months, and was dis- charged as cured. He was suffering from acute mental trouble and'his physical health was bad. For several weeks he was crit- ieally il. 3 Dr. Percy Hickling, one of the police sur- geons, gave evidence. He found the de- fendant in a nervous and excited condition, and there were traces of alcoholism. Wit- ness thought the insanity was not the re- sult of drink, but that drink followed one of these mental attacks. So far as his con- duct Tuesday was concerned, his mind seemed to be a blank. Witness thought that the man was in condition this morning to appreciate his Position. Dr. J. Ramsey Nevitt, another police sur- geon, gave similar testimony, saying he thought the man was of unsound mind. Dr. Stack was recalled, and he said that he saw the defendant Sunday, and he was then in a normal condition. He had heard the statements of the other physicians, and, judging from his (witness’) experience, he judged that alcohol caused the trouble. Counsel asked witness if a man who had been in the habit of using narcotics would not do almost anything to get a stimulant, and witness replied that he would. Judge Kimball said he thought the evi- dence made the man’s alleged insanity ap- pear very doubtful. He was sane Sunday, two days before his arrest, and is in his norn.al condition today. : Lawyer Johnson said he had Drs. Bayne and Marbury, from Providence Hospital, yesterday, and if the court wanted them the case might go over. Goes to Trial. Counsel for the defendant finally agreed to go to trial, and a plea of not guilty was entered. William Nelson, saloon keeper at 4% and D streets, testified that the defendant came into his saloon Tuesday, and soon after- ward Lawyer Wiswell appeared. Bagaly drank a glass of beer. He seemed very much excited, and was talking about come- thing that had been printed in the news- papers about him, and he was golng to whip somebody. If he could not whip them he said he had something else, and pulled out a pistol. Witness thought that he did not point the pistol at any particular in- dividual. Lawyer Wiswell was next called to the stand, and he related the scene in Nelson's bar room. Somebody to Die. He said that he went in Mr. Nelson's lunch room, and while in there the de- fendant came up to him and safd: “Some- body has got to die today, and it is not Campbell Carrington, either.” Witness thought he had been drinking, and he advised him to put away the pistol, which he did, and latet, he sald, he had Bagaly arrested as a matter of mercy. W. C. McCreery, in whose house Bagaly has lived, told the court that his boarder came home very late Tuesday nf@ht. He was very much excited. Bagaly asked him what time he could get a train for Gaithersburg, where, it is said, his wife is living, and he told him he could not go until morning. Bagaly sald he was going there, and he did not know whether he would come back alive or not. The court heard counsel's statement, and finally concluded to take his personal bonds, with the understanding that he be taken to the asylum without any delay. His counsel promised to send him there as soon as the necessary papers can be made out. —_—.__. Naval: Appointments. The President kas appointed Lieutenant Commander S. W.

CHILE’S EXAMPLE Other South American Republics Are Ex- pected to Follow It. Their General Adoption of a Gold Basis Regarded as an Early Possibility. The action of Chile in going to a gold basis Is likely to be followed my similar ac- tion on the part of other South American countries. Gen. Rengifo, the representative of Colombia in the United States, says the tendencies in his country are In that direc- tion, and that a gold basis undoubtedly will be realized within the next four years, and perhaps before. “At present,” said he, “we have a paper currency, which answers every purpose of local exchange and commerce. But there is-no gold or silver behind it, and neither of the metals are in use, excep: at Panama, where.it has become a custom to carry on transactions in silver. Practically, how- ever, we have nothing but paper. About $5,000,000 of gold is produced from Colom- bian mines every year. but as the balance of trade is against us, this product is speed- ily drawn out of the country in payment for goods bought abroad. It is needless, therefore, to attempt a gold basis until we can reverse the balance of trad, so that our gold will remain at home as a basis for @ gold circulation. There is every indica- tion that this will be brought about by the Increased exports of coffee. The trade is increasing enormously, and promises to off- set the loss of gold from imports. Colombian Currenyy Satisfactory. “Our paper currency is very satisfactory,” ecntinued Gen. Rengifo. ‘‘Although we have just passed through a rebellion, the peper is worth much more than that of some of the strongest South American ccuntries. For instance, the Argentine Re- public has paper money exactly the same as ours, yet it takes $4 of Argentine money to make $1 of the United States’ money, while it takes only $2.50 of Colombian pa- per money to make an American dollar. “The Colombian money is made of cop- venient denominations, with fractional cur- rency down to the 20-cent ‘shinplaster’ and small coins of nickel. Altogether, therefore, Colombia suffers no hardship from having neither metals, gold nor sil- ver, in her currency. The depreciation of the paper Is natural, following the recent rebellion, for the paper currency of the United States was at a considerable dis- count following the civil war.” Peculinrity of Chilean Money. It Is a curlous fact brought out by the recent action of Chile in going to a gold basis that the intrinsle value of her new gold coins 1s only about one-half of the value stamped on their face. For instance, the standard $5 gold coin has in it only$2.50 of gold. The effect is somewhat like a pa- per currency, except that the money is on a nominal gold basis, although one-half of it is on the faith of the government. ee ee THE DALECARLIA RESERVOIR. Operations During June, as Deserib- ed by Col. Elliot. Cal. Elliot has made a report to the chief of engineers of operations during June for improving the Dalecarlia receiving reser- voir. The major portion of the work,which was carried on by an average force of i75 men, was the excavation of the channel from the “north connection” into the reser- voir, and deepening the reservoir at its head. Good progress was made on both brarches of the work, as well as in the construction of the dam across the mouth of Little Falls branch. This dam is com- plete, except a short portion near the west- erly end where a driveway was left for the hauling of stone after the completion of the excavation at the head of the reservoir. The work of paving the open channels was continued, as was also the work of trim- ming, soiling and seeding the slopes of those channels, of making gutters on the hillsides above them to prevent the erosion of the banks by storms, of removing trees and brush from the part of the valley of Mill creek above its dam that will be flooded by the dam, and of hauling and yurning the large quantity of brush from the trees removed from the sites of the open channels. Oak piles were cut and preparations were made for the construction of two perma- nent wagon bridges, necessitated by chang- ing the courses of Mill and East creeks. These bridses will be constructed near the west portal of the tunnel, througa the hill eest of Little Falls branch. Clay was hauled for closing the temporary by-pass or cut that was made in the hillside, at the southerly end of the Mill creck dam, for the passage of the water of the creek dur- ing the construction of the dam. ——__—__+2+________ The Elks Incorporated. Articles Incorporating the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the United States of America were filed here today by Edwin B. Hay, Joseph Y. Potts, John C. Maxwell and Thomas J. King of the Dis- trict of Columbia; Willard C. Van Derlip of Boston, Mass.; Peter J. Campbell of Bal- timore, Md., and Joseph W. Laube of Rich- mond, Va. The objects of the association are stated to be benevolent, social and al- truistic; the promotion and encouragement of manly friendship and kindly intercourse, and the alding, assisting and protection of its members and their families. Willard C. Van Derlip, Peter J. Campbell and joseph W. Laube are named as trustees for the first year, PROGRESSIVE JAPAN She Will Use Ohina’s Indemnity to Improve Her Navy. American Shipbuilders Are Display- ing a Lively Interest in Orien- tal Affaisn. It is the belief among officials here that Japan will use a large-partsof the war 'in- demnity which China {été fay her for the Purpose of materially ipéréfsing her navy. The financial resourceg..of;Japan will be very abundant during the eaming year, as she will receive overt!10j000,000 before next May, and thereafttr Ghout $20,000,000 a year for five years. *Fnié will be drawn entirely from China, amd: wili be in addi- tion’ to Japan's’ usnallrecétpts from cus- toms and internal revenué) ‘The custorfis' | receipts promise to bel/very large, as the new treaties which Jap&h has effected with leading nattons will Uting™about a tead- justment . of tariff duties,“so that much greater returus will be realized. American Shipbuilders Alert. It is owing to =his dsSuratice of an ample treasury that American shipbuilding firms have turned their attention toward Japan. The authorities there have already indicat- ed their purpose of usirg a considerable part of the fuads on new ships. A Japa- rese naval expert visited here some time since, and went to the various American yards. Mr. Kurino, the minister, also visited the Cramp yards. It was due to the minister’s reports es to the excellence of American shipbuilding that the naval .ex- pert was sent from Japan. As a result of the talks, there seemed little doubt that one or more large ships would be ordered by Japan. The government was certainly dis- posed that way, and it is believed that if delay has occurred in@closing the contract it must be due to the conditicns imposed by the American builders. Western Yards Will Get a Share. The shipyards at San Francisco ure at- tracting quite as much attention from Jap- enese naval authorities as those in the east. It is said that the cruiser San Fran- cisco, built by the Union iron works at San Francisco, attracted marked attention at the recent naval review at Kiel, and gave further evidence tc naval experts of the ability of the Pacific cocst shipbuild- ers. In view of these facts, it is the opin- ion of officials here that when Japan begins disbursing the moneys she receives from China, part of it will gc into the shipyards at San Francisco and the east. Mr. Cleveland Was Out. There was a caller at the White House this morning who was not admitted. She is Mrs. Eliza Davis, or Gray, and her mis- sion here from Toledo was to see the Prest- dent because she says her husband was abducted by her son. Her husband’s name was Davis, she said, and he was a soldier in the late war. Believing him to be dead, she says, she married a Mr. Gray and also made application for a pension. The re- sult of her application, she says, was the discovery that her first husband, Mr. Davis, is still living, and she wants now to as- certain his whereabouts. In October, 1893, she was here on a simi- lar mission, and had to be sent home. After her visit to the White House today she called upon Sanitary Officer Frank at police headquarters and once rore related to him her story of her two husbands. She sald she was sent here by the Grand Army, and when she reached the White House, she said, the President was out of town, but she saw Mrs. Cleveland, and was told by her to call on Mr. Frank. The un- fcrtunate woman is seventy-nine years old and Sanitary Officer Frank sent her home. —_——._—_ Wife Beater. James H. Isaacs’ employment as a loco- motive engireer in the service of the Pern- sylvania Railroad Company probably ceased today. He was unable to” attend to his duties, for last night he ‘beat his wife, Susie Isaacs, and Policeman Kraemer lock- ed him up. The parties ltve at 322 D street southeast, and last night gbout 11 c’clock the assault occurred. Whisky was not the cause of the family trouble, and the wife said it was nothing but bad temper. A flat fron, chair and the man’s fist were the Weapons used to maim and disfigure the woman, who told Judge Miller she had been too good and kind to her mshand. Lawyer Shillington defended the man, and spoke of the assault 2s an embarrass- ing family affair. Judge Miller could find no excuse for such affairs in families, and imposed a sentence of ninety days in jail on Mr, Isaacs. An Ex-Policeman Dead. Ex-Policeman Benjamin F. Shanks died at Garfield Hospital yesterday afternoon, where he had been a patient for some time, his death resulting from an affection of the lungs. Deceased was forty-six years old, having been born in Maryland in Oc- tober, 1845. In June, 1878, he was appoint- ed a member of the police force and served as a patrolman for eleven years, part of which time he was mounted. During his term of service he figured in a ane of cases, both in the Police Court and before the trial board. In October, 1889, he re- signed and went in the saloon business In Georgetown. His funeral will take place tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock from J. W. Lee’s un- dertaking establishment on Pennsylvania avenue. ALL KINDS OF MONEY -4--| Register Tillman to Send an Exhibit to Atlanta. CURIOUS OLD BONDS AND NOTES England’s Check for Damages Done by the Alabama. AN INTERESTING ARRAY Register J. Fount Tillman of the United States treasury will send from his bureau to the Atlanta exposition one of the most interesting and attractive exhibits to be furnished for that occasion by the United States government. The exhibit—then rather incomplete in some of its details— attracted widespread attention at the Co- lumpian exposition in Chicago. Since then many new features have been added, until now it forms the most complete collection of all issues of money of this government in existence. It is not only valuable to those interested in the financial history of this country, but it serves as well to illustrate the great end rapid advance made in the art of engreving. The first attempts to en- grave notes vere crude and rcugh, while the later efforts are the beautiful works of art with which every one is familiar. Th2 exhibit contains specimens of treas- vry issues of every form, made on account of the various loans, since the foundation of the government, grouped and arranged in chronological order. Added to this is a full and well-preverved collection of colo- nial money, which is valuable as well as interesting. The government was compell- ed to purchase this collection by plecemeal from various perscns who were holding the money as souvenirs, and & good price was paid for the necessary pieces to complete the collection. One of the features of the exhibit {s the continental money. All the issues of the thirteen original states are represented, embracing all dates, denomi- nations and conditions of payment. The exhibit includes continental mot.ey, colonial money, specimens of the issues of the late confederate states, both currency and bonds, United States bonds, United States currency, national bank notes, Dills of broken wild cat banks in active operation before the civil war, and the check which England made out in favor of this country for depredations committed by the steamer Alabama on the commerce of the United States. Early Bond Issucs. The earliest issue of bon: then known as “loan office certificates,” as shown in the exhibit, was made in 1776 on account of the first loan this government negotiat- ed with France. Then follow in order of date specimens of bonds issued to re- plenish the treasury from time to time during the progress of the revolutionary and clvil wars down to the present time, the last loan being that of 1803, redeemable in 1925. As shown by the specimens, the ear~ liest coupon bonds were issued In 1842. It was then that this government adopted the two forms of bonds, now so popular, the coupon and registered. The specimens of the boncs, notes, fractional currency and other evidences of debt under all acts of Congress issued on account of the heavy loans entailed by the civil war form a fine and historic collection of the reminders of those stirring times. The “loan office certificates” are prob- ably as Interesting as any other feature of ‘this collectioon. Many have the inter- est figured out on the edge of the note, showing that the holders had puzzled their heads to find out what Uncle Sam owed them. On one of the colonial notes, issued in 1774, are inscribed the words: “To coun- terfeit 1s death.” Some severe penalty was necessary, for any ordinary school boy ha quill pen could have reproduced the note exactly, so crude and rough was its execution. Among the bonds are found a great number of District of Columbia notes of indebtedness, issued for all sorts of Furposes. The bonds of the large 4 per eent loan of the late war times have a place in the exhibit, and they take up quite a good deal of space. They are both cou- pon and registered tonds, the highest de- nomination of the former being $1,000, and that of the latter being $50,000. The $50,000 registered bond is the largest ever issued by this government. No coupon bond is issued with a higher denomination than $1,000. The last loan, that of 1895-1925, is a 4 per cent one, and the bonds are beau- tiful works of art. They are made in the shape of a United States flag, with the covpons taking the place of the stripes, and one of these bonds takes up the entire space on a single leaf of the exhibit. The Alnbama Check. The check which England paid to this country on account of the Alabama claims is a gold certificate, and is made out in the sum of $15,500,000. It was paid through Drexel, Morgan & Co., Morton, Bliss & Co. and Jay Cooke & Co., and is signed on the face by John Allison, register of the treas- wry, and F. E. Spinner, treasurer of the United States. On the back it is indorsed by many names, the most_prominent of which are those of Edward Thornton, then the English minister to this country; Ham- ‘ton Fish, Secretary of State, and Wm. A. Richardson, Secretary of the Treasury. The collection is mounted on two separate columns, each seven feet high. Thirty-two frames are swung on hinges to these col- umns, and in these frames the notes are mounted. They are well arranged and are lettered and grouped in an artistic manner. e+ Many Requests. The will of the late Alfred Wallace, dated February 15, 1891, and filed today, appoints Horace L. Piper and Robert E. Bradley executors. To the widow of the*| deceased, Harriet N. Wallace, premises 1341 15th street and the effects therein a.e given for life, at her death to pass to Isa- belle Wallace, a daughter, and at that time the executors are directed to pay to Cornelius R.

Jones, colored lawyers, met in Edward Lipscomb’s office on F street two days ago and en- gaged in a difficulty over a vase. The af- fair resulted in blows, and the participants were separated before any serious injury was done. Jones swore out a warrant for Walker, and the case was heard in the Po- licg court this afternoon. gudge Miller failed to find that the words in the case justified the blow, and a fine of $15 was imposed on Walker. pines ees Johnnie Shen's Death. An autopsy was held this morning on the body of “Johnnie” Shea, who died Wed- nesday evening. It was thought that there was a possibility that his death was caus- ed by an accident or a blow last Christmas day, but the autopsy showed that there was ro injury to the skull, and that death was from pyaemia and an injury to the brain, the latter of long standing, and pre- sumably the result of the injuries the man suffered a couple of years ago by falling from a train in Pennsylvania. It was de- cided that an inquest was not necessary, and no further action will be taken in the case. —.__. An Advance Ordered, Judge Cole, sitting in he Probate Court, today directed that the sum of $3,000 be advanced to Mrs. Helen Douglass, the motos of Frederick Douglass, out of the estate.
