They Are Charged With a Reprehen- sible Display of Carclessness Re- garding the Sud Occurrence. Considerable criticism has been directed toward the United States consular officers at Glasgow, Scotland, for their apparent lack of interest in the case of young Dara Davenport. That gentleman died in Glas- gow over a month ago under most sus- picious circumstanc<s, and the facts were published in the newspapers of that city. so they must have been known at the cor. eulate. According to reports received here from the police authorities,of Glasgow, Mr. Davenport was found lyiug beside a rati- road track a short distance outside of that elty seriously injured, and was taken to a hospital in Glasgow, where he died several hours later. In a short interval of con- sciousness just before his deith he was able to tell nis name and to say that he was from Washington, D. C. He was not able, however, to tell how ha received 4is injuries, and it is not known here yet whether they were the result of an acci- Gent or of Ccesign cn the part of persons for purposes of robbery. Seemingly Unaccounfable Neglect. It is said that these facts must have come to the knowledge of the Americari consular officers in Glasgow. Why they took no action in the case, even to the extent of reporting it to the department, is unaccountable, inasmuch as it was clearly @ matter within the scope of their official duties. It has been generally supposed that the protection of American interests wus the paramount duty of our consular officers, yet in the case in point an American citi- zen of good character meets with a violent death in the midst of strangers, and the Tepresentatives of his government on the spot do not consider it of sufficient moment to inform his parents or friends or even to make it the subject of a formal commu- nication to the State Department. While the case was one that properly called for the use of the telegraph, there is no apparent excuse for the failure to re- sort to the mails. The Consul and His Assistants. ‘Mr. Allen B. Morse of Michigan is the consul at Glasgow, and he has two as- sistants, Mr. William Gibson of Scotland and Mr. Alfred R. Locke of Michigan. The consul gets a salary of $3,000, and last year his notarial fees amounted to $875. It is possible that the consul was away at the time, but it is incredible that there Was no one on Guty at the time. Officials of the State Department refuse to discuss the matter except to say tat the failure of the consul to report the case to the department is unaccountable, especially as he is regarded as one of its Most efficient officers. It is admitted that the case was one clearly within the con- sul’s official duties. Although the officials do not care to criti- cize the Glasgow consul, there are other people who are not so considerate of his feelings, as is indicated by the subjoined communication. Some Pertinent Queries. In a communication sent to The Evening Star, Mr. Carroll W. Smith asks some ques- tions in relation to the matter. “In connection with the latest develop- ments in the case of the young theological student, Dana A. Davenport,” writes Mr. Smith, “it seems proper to inquire for what purpose the United States maintains a consular representative at Glasgow. Here we have a case of a young American citi- zen, presumably a victim of foul play, dying in @ public infirmary in Glasgow, under the most suspicious circumstances, all pointing to robbery and attempted murder. The dy- ing boy discloses his identity; yet his grief- stricken relatives and friends, who are straining every nerve and sparing neither toll nor money to obtain tidings of the missing youth, are kept for more than thirty days in anguished suspense, until the news of his death arrives by the slow medium of a letter, containing a newspaper clipping, sent by the chief-of the Glasgow police. “This is a horrible spectacle of the care- lessness and indifference of an American consul to the interests of his fellow coun- trymen abroad,” continues the writer. “Certainly our representative at Glasgow cannot plead ignorance of the fact of the mysterious death of an American citizen under the very shadow of the consulute, when the Glasgow papers were proclaim- ing the facts. Is there the slightest doubt but that his plain duty was to at once cable the department at Washington? Did he fail to realize that parents’ hearts were aching for news of their dear one in the far-away home of this poor murdered boy? What manner of a man is this Glasgow representative ef ours? Surely, his cruel indifference, his manifest incompetency, calls for something more severe than a mere rebuke from the State Department. Such beings are a disgrace to the Ameri- can consular servic Died Suddenly. Thomas O'Driscoll, fifty-five years of age, a contractor, who has been living at 108 B street northwest, was found uncon- scious in his room at the above number last evening. He was hastily removed to Providence Hospital, but died soon after reaching that institution. It seems that O'Driscoll had been drinking for some time past and {t is thought the death re- sulted from that cause. CHURCH, 423 @ ST.

This change, though quite an advance, 4will doubtless be rather a@ hard one on Father Cutler, coming so soon after the completion of the handsome new church built during his pastorate. Father Cutler's successor, Rey. Father J. J. Bowler, formerly pastor at Manassas, but recently stationed at Old Point, has arrived here .and taken charge of St. Mary's. He is said to: be a man of pro- found ‘learning and wab-very popular with his congregation at Manassas, as he will doubtless soon becomie:here.

Webster of the Alexandria police is in receipt of an anonymous letter, the writer of which requests him to look into a case of cruel treatment of a woman by her husband on South Fairfax street. The names of the people are not given, but the letter states the man beats his wife un- mercifully, and that a few days ago he knocked her down and applied a red-hot iron to Fer neck and burned her quite se- verely.

ATLANTIC CITY, August 2, 1895. ‘The week at the city-by-the-sea has been prolific of social events to a degree sur- passing any ‘previous record for the same length of time. Thore in the swim here have been constantly engaged, the press for time being great enough to effect the novel intreduction of morning euchre par- ties, progressive euchre being one of the popular forms of social pleasure at zhis re- sor! Trolley parties, that pleasant evening recreation which has so strong a grip in Philadelphia, were introduced during the Week, and every evening saw cars on the electric .road to Longport loaded with merry young folks, with a band on board to keep their pleasure at a proper tem- ~perature. Of course, the baths have not been ne- glected, and every day thousands sported in the surf or played in the sand, for “sand bathers” are numerous on the beach here. Noon is the favorite hour for the lovers of swimming. At that time the shore pre- sents an extremely gay appearance. _ Three individuals were seen on the board- walk this week who excited a great deal of comment, and were followed by the eyes of all who recognized them. Arm in arm Sugar Magnate Havemeyer strolled with Philip D. Armour, the multi-millionaire beef packer of Chicago. There is a mys- tery surrounding their presence here to- gether, which may be cleared up some day. The third man to attract attention any- where, over six feet, broad-shouldered, splendid physique, with a face full of char- acter, dressed in a snuff-colored suit and broad-brimn-ed soft haf placed carelessly cn his head, he presented a dramatic ap- pearance. It was Gov. Virginia. Some startling costumes have been seen in the surf here, not the least conspicuous among which is the garment worn by a celebrated Baltimore beauty, who daily dallies with the rolling waves. This lady of statuesque mien and graceful carriage al- lows her sun-tinted hair to be kissed by the salt waves, despising the gossamer head- gear generally worn. Her waist, which is without sleeves, is cut low in the neck and back, exposes a vast area of her skin to the beating rays of the sun. The waist is of a bright red, trimmed with orange, and has an abbreviated skirt to match. Orange silk stockings, with red canvas bathing slip- pers, complete her garb. It is almost need- less to say that the spot she frequents is generally crowded with curious sightseers. Another fair bather, whose “bathing” is done on a beach chair under a protecting awning, some distance from the water line, while not so gaudily attired as her Balti- more sister, comes in for her share of com- ment. She is evidently an admirer of Princeton’s sons and delights in displaying their colors, every piece of her apparel, even to the robe which she wears for pro- tection when the wind chills, being black and orange. The Washington people sojourning here seem to have everything their own way. They are feasted and feted in every con- ceivable way and are in no wise slow about returning courtesies. Ex-Speaker Charles R. Crisp will be here with his family late this month and will stop at the Scarborough. The Scarborough, by the way, is owned by Tony Lechler, late of tha Metropolitan, Washington. Mr. and Mrs. Blakeley Hall, New York people well known in Washington, are at the Hotel Dennis. J. F. Sanders of Chicago, accompanied by his wife, is at the Arlington. ‘A belle staying at the Arlington is Miss Anna K. Brown, daughter of Jucge Brown of Texas. The Sovereign Grand Ledge, I. O. O. F., will convene here in September. Seventy thousand people are expected. Society is locking forward eagerly to the ccming regatta of the Corinthian Yacht Club, which takes place next week. The Washington contingent occupying cottages and their addresses are: Geo. H. Conyells, 160 Ocean avenue; Miss M. C. Gillard, 143 Tennessee avenue; M. E. Heise, 140 S.

Ex-Speaker Crisp Receiving Many At- tentions—Mrs, Bayard Be- stows Prizes. (Copyrighted by the Associated Press.) LONDON, August 3.—London continues to be crowded with Americans. A prominent West End shopkeeper recently stated that “had it not been, for the American patron- age this summer most ‘of the West End shops would have verged on bankruptcy. The Americans are our most liberal buy- ers,” he continued, “‘and it seems this year, especially in brie-a-brac, have been heavier than usual.” Among the Americans at present in Lon- don are Mrs. T. C. Platt of New York, Mr. John R. Walsh of Chicago and Mr. Bayard, the son of the United States ambassador. Senator Gray of Delaware is having a nice time in London, owing to the courtesies ex- tended to him by the United States ambas- sador, Mr. Thos. F. Bayard. Mr. Murat Halstead of Brooklyn, N. Y., is here, and will remain in London for ten days. He agrees with all Mr. St. Clair Mc- Kelway, editor of the Brookly Eagle, has said about English politics and the bene- ficial results of the recent general elections. Mr. Crisp’x Visit. Mr. Charles F. Crisp, ex-Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, who is sight-seeing in London, owing to his bad health and natural modesty has refused a number of invitations from dis- tinguished Englishmen, and is keeping very quiet. Mr. Crisp is to dine with Mr. Richard Croker tonight, and refuses to talk upon silver until he has studied the ques- tion from the English standpoint. As al- ready cabled, previous to his departure from home, Mr. Crisp will be dined by ihe speaker of the house of commons, Mr. Wil- liam C. Gully, and by Mr. John Hare, the actor. Mr. Edwin Gould and his family left London on Tuesday. They are now stay- irg at the Hotel Continental, in Paris. Mrs. Bayard, the wife of the United States ambassador, distributed the prizes at the annual festival of the Royal Normal College and Academy of Music for the Blind at Upper Norwood on Tuesday last. The principal guests were seated for the ceremony on the baicony, draped with the American flag. After Mrs. Bayard had Presented the awards the United States ambassador made a neat little speech, in the course of which he said that he held it to be an honor as a representative of ine United States to join with the people of Great Britain in a work of such benefi- cence. The chairman, Lord Playfair, in propos- ing a vote of thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Bay- ard, dwelt upon the services rendered by them to the cause of philanthropy in Eng- land. Lord Playfair’s remarks were warmly applauded by the audience. Miss E. B. Scidmore, wh» was one of the American delegates to the International Geographical Congress, has been made a great deal of here, tharks to the kindness of the United States ambassador. The Princess of Wales gave her a special in- vitation to call and at a gerden party given by the Baroness Burdetts-Coutts, Miss Scidmore was the guest of honor, as was also Maj. W. C. Whittemore. Attorney C. S. Darrow of Chicago spent much time this week in the law courts and ies been receiving a great deal of atten- ion. . Editor Nelson of the Kansas City Star is seeing the sights of London. He favors the nominaticn of President Cleveland for a third term. Mr. John Fallingsby, a pro- tege of the late Senator Hearst of Cali- fernia, is a conspicuous figure on Piccadilly every afternoon. He has been put up at the leading clubs. Gen. Patrick A. Collins, the United States ecnsul geaeral, has gone cn a vacation and. Mr. Jobn C. New, editor of the Indianap- olis Journal and formerly the United States consul general here, has become dis- gusted with the fact that he has been in bed health ever since his arrival in Lon- don, and has abandoned kis intention to visit the continent. He will return home tomorrow by the American line steamship Berlin. Stadying British Elections. Col. Murdock of Indiana is studying Brit- ish elections and traveling about the coun- try. He says he thought Indiana had brought politics to a finer point than any- where else in the world: but, he added, he found a great deal to learn here, saying: “You can learn more about politics in a practical way in a minute here than we do in an hour of reading. I was amused to read the comments of the English papers on our politics. Our methods are child-like compared with the English. If some things which I have eeen here had happened in = the English newspapers would owl.” Miss Lena Howard of Malone, N. Y., who lost her reason while on a voyage “trom New York to Southampton, and who is now in a private asylum for the insane at that place, has not improved in health. Her mother has arrived to take care of her. It now appears that Mrs. Tillinghurst, the wife of Mr. James Tillinghurst, a law- yer of Providence, I, and a passenger by the steamship Normannia, which re- cently arrived at Southampton, and who died there at a hotel yesterday, had been suffering from heart disease, aggravated by cold. Mrs. Tillinghurst was ill when she landed. Director Cassatt of the American line of steamships has ptrchased the Marquis of Anglesea’s steam yacht Star of the Sea for £7,350. Mr. Cassatt has started for Antwerp on board in order to embark his wife and daughter for a cruise to Norway. Mrs. Frenk McKee, who is better known to the stage world as Isat elle Coe, has been in London a weck and ,has just departed for the continent. Mrs. McKee is making a most remarkable record as a sight-seer. She is accompanied by ker husband and 2a number of friends and rene of them can Keep up to her. She can do more in the way of sight-seeing in a day than an ordi- nary person can in two. FINANCIAL. Interest Paid Upon Deposits. INTEREST IS ALLOWED ON DEPOSITS on, dally balances subject to check.
