Mr. Henry Bachstadt, weil known in German circles, died yesterday afternoon at his home, 469 I street southwest, after a@ short and painful {Ilness. He had been suffering from rheumatism for several days past, and yesterday morning his Illness took a serious turn. Four physicians were summoned at once, but they were unable to do anything for him and he died at a late hour in the day. The doctors thought {t best to make a thorough investigation before issuing a death certificate, and this gave rise to a rumor that his death was not from natural causes. One of the phy- siclans who attended him, however, stated to the police last night that so fag as he was concerned he was willing to give a certificate that Mr. Bachstadt had died from heart trouble supe-induced by rheu- and that will probably end the ———-_— Echo Meeting.

He is Confident That He Will Procure a Conviction of the Ecking- ton Officials. The prosecution instituted against the Eckington road by Prosecuting Attorney Pugh is the first case of its kind against a trolley road in this city, and is attracting widespread attention. Being the first case, Mr. Pugh did not file one of his proposed daily informations today and wil! not do so until Judge Miller passes upon the case Monda; Since starting the prosecution, Mr. Pugh has received several letters bearing on the occupation of New York avenue by the trolley poles and wires, and, in eyery in- Stance, the writer has given words of praise and encouragement to the prosecutor. This morning's mail brought to Mr. Pugh a let- ter from a clerk in one of the departments, which reads: Approving His Course. “I am glad you have taken hold of that Eckington trolley case, and hope you will push it to the utmost limit of your power. That corporation has no more right to ¢b- struct the public highway in defiance of law than has the citizen merchant the side- walk, and the same vigorous measures on your part toward the former as were ap- plied to the latter will ultimately bring them to a realization of their rights and duty in the premises. Your purpose, as in- dicated in The Star of yesterday, to bring @ separate action for every pole on the ave- nue ts a good one, and I hope It will be car- ried out, if necessary. “The course of a public officer in en- deavoring to enforce the law should at all times be encouraged and approved, and never more so than when its violators are @ wealthy and influential corporation. In writing you this letter I but voice the senti- ment of a great number of those who have been subjected to the annoyances of this company’s line for the past several years, and now that the public, through their lawful representative, has it by the throat it is to be hoped that you will use every proper means In your power to bring it to @ realization of the fact that it is but a creature of the public's creation and must obey the will of its creator. Confident of a Conviction. In conversaticn with a Star reporter this morning Mr. Pugh said there was no doubt about the resuit in the case. The law is being violated, and the court will certainly hold the violators. In ghis connection Mr. Pugh referred to the case of the telegraph compantes being prosecuted for stringing wires over housetops. In that case the court held there was a violation, and in this case the facts are such that a clearer and better defined case can be made out. After Monday, said Mr. Pugh, daily informations will be filed if the court holds the company Hable, and that will subject the company to a fine of $25 or $50 a day. This, he thinks, will have the desired effect, and the com- pany will comply with the law. —-_—_ GRAND LODGE, I. 0. 0. F. Its Sessions Close With Installation of the New Officers. ‘The sessions of the Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows for the District of Columbia came to an end at a late hour last evening, after which the representatives were entertain- ed at a handsome banquet.

Recognized as the Man Who Entered Mr. Emmert's House. Detective Boardman went to New York last evening with Edward Castell, butler for Seaator Wolcott, for the purpose of sdentifying William King, who is under ar- rest there on suspicion of having robbed Mr. Emmert's house on 16th street, and having attempted to effect an entrance at the Senator's residence. This morn!ng In- spector Hollinberger received a telegram from Detective Boardman stating that the prisoner had been identified as the one who attempted to enter Senator Wolcott's res!- dence. He had two watches on him, and {t 1a thought that one of them may belong to Mr. Emmert. Soon after the robbery at Mr. Emmert’s and also at a house on 14th street occurred, King and a companton were suspected, but it was not until night before last that the arrest was made. aS Mr. King’s Jewelry Found. The watch and chain supposed to have been stolen from Jerry King, clerk of the court at Greenville, Ala., in the treasury vaults yesterday, was found on the treas- ury floor yesterday afternoon. It is now thought that he lost his watch and chain in the crowd, and that his pocket was not picked. —_——-._—_ Satisfied of Her Son's Safety.

After Travers had been executed yester- day a Star reporter talked with Joseph A. Beam, who is to be hanged at the District jail next Friday for the murder of his step- daughter, Mrs. Annie L. Leahy, on the 22d of last December. It is the opinion of the prison officials that the man, who has been apparently wholly indifferent to his fate, will collapse, and his manner yesterday af- ternoon was such as to indicate that such a thing is more than probable. Heretofore in his interview with the reporter Beam appeared as a man who not only did not fear death, but really welcomed the re- lease which it brings from the cares of this world. But yesterday his indifference to death seemed to be assumed. He was as violently profane as heretofore, and he seemingly gloried as much as ever in his crime. And while he assired the reporter that the hanging of Travers yesterday morning had not had the slightest effect upon him, it was clearly apparent that the miserable man was in a state of high ner- vous excitement. He spoke of the execution of Travers as an ordinary ineident of life, and with an oath declared that he himself had never feared death, and, if he had to hang next Friday, would face the music unflinchingly. “Why, damn it to hell,” he exclaimed, “they can only destroy this temple of clay,” striking his chest, “but they can’t kill this soul, which is immortal.” Then the unfortunate man svoke of his crime, cursing the woman he killed, and saying that he regretted not naving had an opportunity to kill others, who, he de- clared, had hounded him to death. He de- clared, too, that he had not received a fair trial, claiming that the court had de- termined that he should be convicted, and had virtually hypnotized his counsel. But while they might put his body in the grav: “My soul,” he exclaimed, ‘‘will, like that of-| old John Brown, go marching on, and about "93 you people here will hear from both of us.”” Beam, until yesterday, had intimated to the visiting clergyman that he knew as much of the hereafter ss they did, and could take care of himself. Yesterday, however, he requested Father Sullivan and a colored clergyman to see him, and he talked with them yesterday and today with seemingly great satisfaction. Now, too, he is devoting himself to reading the Bible, and when the reporter called at his cell this afternoon the book of books lay open on his cot beside him. Thomas J. Taylor, also sentenced to be hanged next Friday for wife murder, fully realizes his unfortunate position, but is evidently buoying himself up with the hope that his sentence will be commuted. Yester- day’s execution had a most distressing ef- fect upon him, nevertheless, and the jail officials fear that he, too, will collapse if the President refuses to interfere. ——.—_ AMUSEMENTS. New National Theater.-There will be one more week of comedy at the New Na- tional Theater. For Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday evenings and at the Saturday matinee “All the Comforts of Home” is announced. Thursday evening Mrs. J. C. Keightley’s ‘Sealed Instructions’ will be given. Friday night Charies I. Faweett’s farcical comedy, “An Awful Affair,” will be revived, and the farewell bill Saturday night will be Jerome K. Jerome's ‘“Bar- bara” and Henry J. Byron's “Partners for Life.’ Charles Coote's Benefit.—Mr. Chas. Coote, who has made a host of friends in this city not only by his excellent work with the National Theater Comedy Company, but also on account of his genial manners and personal qualities, will receive a benefit on the 80th instant. It will take place at the Grand Opera House, and already a large amount of talent has volunteered. Mr. Burt Riddle, who is managing the affair, says the number of those anxious to assist Mr. Coote ts very large, and accessions to the Hst are coming in daily. The trouble is whom to select. Aiready M. A. Kennedy, Elste Lower, J. J. Escher and the Apollo Quartet are announ@ed.. The sale of seats has commenced and a large number ‘s already engaged. Mr. Martimus Sieveking, a Holland pian- ist, will tour this country next season. He is said to spring from an old and aristo- eratie family, which dates its ancestry back in the fifteenth century. From his earliest infancy, he displayed characteris- tles indicative of his future career. He is a man of magnetic temperament and stril ing personality, being over six feet height and magnificently proportioned. “Helena” is the name of the character that will be played by Mrs. Robert Down- ing (Eugenie Blair) in the tragedy of that name by Victorien Sardou, author of “Fe- Gora,” “Wheadora,” “Gismonda,” ‘La Tos- ca,” &e. Mr. Downing secured this play at an enormous expense and will give it a production next season worthy of the play and author. The first production will be given in this city September 2, 1895. Mr. M. F. O'Donoghue will recite “The Corsican’? before the Maine Society this evening. —_—.—_—_. A BRIGHT BOY DROWNED. Details of the Sad Death of Young Clarence Jardine. Clarence W. Jardine, a nephew of Mr. and Mrs. E. I. Booraem of 1008 O street northwest, was drowned in Jones’ Falls, on the outskirts of Baltimore, Thursday morning. Clarence has been living at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Booraem for seven years, and at the close of school had gone to vislt his mother, from whom he had been separated for a number of years, his father having died when he was five years old. In company with another lad, Alonzo Harries, he went in swimming at a place called Snake Hole. His companion swam across the narrow stream in safety, but Clarence, diving from a rock, went down to the depth of ten feet. His body did not rise to the surface. Alarm was immediate- ly given, and Mr. George Bouldin, who was fishing near by, ran to the spot, and, diving down, brought the body up. Every effort Was made to resuscitate the lad, but with- out avall. From the account given by his com- panion, his head must have struck a Goulder, which stunned him. Clarence was a bright lad, and had many friends among the boys in Hamline Sun- day school, of which he was a member. He was also a member of the Junior Ep- worth League, and a scholar in the class of Mrs. Fannie. Polkinhorn. His sudden death was a great shock to his relatives, and especially so to the family of Mr. and Mrs. Booracm, who were looking for his return in September to continue his studies. His remains were interred in St. Mary's cemetery, on Roland avenue, Baltimore. gure ees To Inquire Into Sanity.

Offenders Who Passed im the Motley Procession Before the Police Court Today. Policemen Sullivan and Whalen of Lieut. Kelly’s precinct were on fluty on Pennsyl- vania avenue last night, and they made more cases than all the other officers in their precinct. The result was that they occupied more of the time of the Police Court this morning than did the. others. In one case they had two defendants, and the charge against them was that they rode their bicycles on the brightly lighted avenue without the necessary lighted lamps attached. William Chaney, a small boy, who is in the post office messenger service, was one of the defendants, “And,” said Lawyer Smith, “his arrest was an obstruction to the United States mails.” “The question of mail has nothing to do with the case,” the court remarked.* “If he was violating the law the arrest was proper.”” “He had no light on his wheel,” said the officer. “‘Very few of them have lights, but it is impossible to catch many of them.” An earnest plea was made in the boy's behalf, and it was stated that the Com- missioners had issued an order making an exception of mail carriers. A fine of $5 was imposed, and the judge said he would probably reconsider the mat- ter when he got the order. Later in the day Judge Miller was fur- nished a copy of the Commissioners’ order making an exception of mail carriers, and the charge against the boy was dismissed. James Nagle was the other defendant, and he claimed ignorance of the law, as he had only been in the city about five months. “I have not been in the habit of riding at night,” he said, ‘but last night I did go ou The Law’s Intention Explained. “This law,” explained the judge, “was made to protect pedestrians and not to punish bicycle riders. It’s a law that is going to be enforced when the cases are brought here.” Because of the fact that Nagle is virtual- ly a stranger his personal bonds were taken. Charles Rollins and James Robinson were next called. They are small colored boys, who were barefooted, but wore neat clothes. They, too, were on Pennsylvania avenue last night, and when a cable car came alcng they jumped on the moving vehicle to get a breath of fresh air. Just at that time the two policemen came along and arrested them for engaging in the dangerous practice of jumping on the meving cable trains. Judge Miller said that every boy who en- gaged in such businces ought to be arrest- ed, and imposed a $5 fine. Percy Scheller was tried for fast driving. He drives a wagon in which he carries New York papers, and he says it's necessary in his business to drive fasti He was fined $5, which he pald. Charged With Crap;Shooting. “I am not guilty,” answered Lee Cole- man, a young colored man, against whom there was a charge of unlawful assembly. “He was playing crap,cyour honor,” said Policeman Verraillion, “but when I started for him he got away.” “Wher was this?’ “No, sald Coleman, “the police- man’s wrong, because I was in the country that day.” “Whereabouts in the country?” the judge asked him. y; "At Indian Head.” “Doing what?” “Working with brickmakers. ‘The prisoner declared that he did not re- turn to the city until Wednesday. “I saw bim ea in the day said. ‘Doing what?" “Sitting on a beer keg in front of a bar room.” “I haven't been sitting on a beer keg since 1 came from down the river. Coleman said that his cousin knew when he came home. Judge Miller heard the explanations of both the officer and the prisoner and im- posed a fine of $5. The Credit System Stopped. 'm gulity of being drunk,” answered a colored man named Eustace Thornton. “But, judge, your honor, will you let me speak for myself?” “Certainly,” said the judge, officer gives his testimony.” “Thornton was drunk last night,”’ Police- man Carllson told the court, “and when I aroused him he was noisy and did not want to move.” “Judge, I was drinking last night and fell asleep on the pavement,” said the prisoner, “and if you let me go I'll try to do better in the future” The usual fine was impoeed. udge, will you give me time to go and get the money?” Thornton asked. “No, sir,” the judge answered; “the credit business is stopped. Thcre are many per- sons out now looking for money to pay fines.” He went back. a Expect Clemency. In response to the inquiry from the com- mittee of East Washington citizens ad- dressed to the President, asking if he would recelve them in the matter of a commuta- tion of the death sentence imposed upon Thomas J. Taylor for wife murder, Private Secretary Taurber telegraphed the commit- tee yesterday afternoon that the case is so fully before the President that a visit of | the committee is not desirable. While the telegram may be interpreted either favor- ably or unfavorably, the committee feel that it should be interpreted favorably,and the officer “after the they confidertly expect, it is said, that clemency will be extended to the unfortu- nate man. —_———>_—_.
