JUDGE KIMBALL FAVORS IT Lawyers Who Take Different Sides Concerning the Result. FOR WIFE BEATERS The grand jury’s recommendation con- cerning the establishment of the whipping post is the topic of conversation about the Police Court just now, especially among tke lawyers who practice there. These legal lights have seen as much of the dark side of life as any other class of persons, with the exception of members of the police force and the judges of the police courts, and they think they know as much about the nature of the punishment which should be inflicted as any others. Among the lawyers most of them cx- pressed the opinion that the whipping post should be established here, as, in their opin- icn, it is the only effective punishment that con be meted out to certain classes of of- fenders. On the other hand, come of them are of the opinion that the establishment of this mode of punishment would be a return to a relic of barbarism, which would prove degrading to civilization. Judge Kimball has publicly announced from the bench that he favors the whipping pcst for wife beaters, and in conversation with a Star reporter this morning he said he had discovered no reason*why he should ge hjs mind on this question. While*l think the whipping post Is the proper punishment for wife beaters,” said the judge, “I think this mode of punish- nt should not apply to cases of theft. There not seem to be any punis mt fit for wife beaters,” added the judge, ther than the whipping post.” During the past few weeks, while held- ing the United States brunch of the court, Judge Kimball said he had heard a number of cases In which husbands had {Il treated their wives, and in almost every case the ce showed that the offender had com- d a similar offense before. In conclusion, Judge Kimball said he found that in almost every case of wife beating the husband was addicted to the of liquor, and was generally under the influence of liquor at the Ume of the beat- ing. Juage Miller did not care to be quoted in the matter of establishing the whipping post, but it is generally understood that he opposes it. In Opposition. Milton M. Holland, a prominent member of the bar, said he was opposed to the whipping post for more reasons than one. He thought the establ'shment of this mode of punishment would be a disgrace in this enlightened age, for he realized that such punishment could hardiy be given impar- tially, While he thought the establishment of Uie post would be so much of a disgrace, he recognized the fact that there is at present no adequate means of punishing the offender. The jail and work house, he said, amount to very little, so far as punishment is con- cerned, and, indeed, many of the prisoners get better treatment at these places than they get at home. He thought that there should be a prison for these offenders, where they would really have to perform some labor. The jail, he thought, offers inducements to many people to commit offensesy.for in the prison they find a comfortable home, and get better food that they get outside. Race Question. W. Calvin Chase, editor of the Bee, says he opposes such a mode of punishment for the reason that only colored people would ve whipped. If tere was any certainty that the punishment would be uniform he would not have such a decided objection to it, but he thought this would not be the case. Lawyer William C. Martin said he was oppoxed to the establisiment of the whip- ping post unless the punishment is to be appled uniformly. He recollected very Well Lhe experience of the state of Virginia with the whipping post, and its establish- ment here, he feared, would only be a repetition of that experience, In that state, he said, the law was in operation from. 1878 until ISSt, during which trme 40,00) voters, 05. per cent of whom were colored, were disfranchised. he law, he said, Worked well until a white weman was whipped in Alexandria for stealing a piece of meat, and then the first readjuster legislature repealed it. A decision of the court of appeals in the Meyers case, h» thought, had the effect of restoring these peopie to citizenship, but there are thousands of such persons who are not now permitted to vote. Would Work. . “I think very well of the decision,” was what Lawyer John A. Moss said when questioned by The Star reporter. “It is the only thing that will subserve the ends of justice and prevent a recurrence of these offenses. A coward who will beat his wife cures nothing for a few days’ impris- onment in jail. He wiil simply go to jail and come out and repeat the offense. And It fs the same with thieves. These rascals who go around robbing hen houses, for instance, care nothing for a few jays in jail, but give them nine and thirty, and the chances are that they will let hen houses alone afterwards. Lawyer Jones, speaking on the subject, said he was in doubt about the best w: to punish offenders. He realized, he said, that no one but a coward would assault his wife, and the punishment for such an ffense cannot be too severe. “But,” he id, “it is a question in my mind whether or not the establishment of the whipping post would degrade civilization. “There is one thing certain,” he said, “and that is that a more rigid mode of discipline should be practiced at the jail and work house. These so-called prisons, as they are now conducted, certainly have no terror to pronounced criminals, and there ought to be some better mode of pun- ishment, but what that should be I am not prepared to say.” Lawyer Hewlett says he favors the whipping post for the punishment of wife s and many other offenders. These do not fear a sentence of impr ment in jail or on the farm. “Put something on their backs that they will feel,” said the lawyer, “and the next time they will know better.” Deserting Wive: “While I favor the whipping post for wife beaters,” said Lawyer Sillers, “I am certain that it can never be established here. Wife beaters, however, are not the only persons who should be punished in this manner. I think men who desert their wives and children and leave them with- out any snpport deserve the eeverest pun- ishment that can be inflicted, and for them Nicotine Neutralized GIEW AND SMOKB MCAIOL POUCH TOBACCO.

Ccoper, superintendent of the Naval Academ shows that during the year past twenty- six cadets failed to pass the examinations and were permitted to resign, no vacan- cies being caused by death or dismissal. ‘The superintendent says that the limit of age permitted by law for the entrance of cadets is too great, and that it should be established between fiftecn and seventeen years. In view of the large percentage of failures of candidetes to pass upon re- examinations he recommends the adoption of the prectice prevailing at the Military Academy, by which the consent of the academic board is nec for re-exami- nation. He recommends, also, that the selections for the various corps in the navy be made at the conclusion of the four yeurs’ course at the academy, and that the surplus graduates may be then discharged, doing away with the additional course of two years afloat. Suggestions Ab Appointments should be made one year in advance of admission, he says, in or- der to afford proper opportunity for prepa- ration ef the candidate. He says that ad- missions should be only in the month of May end the cadet engineers after a com- plete cruise of three years, with the rank of ensign, should be sent back to tne academy for a*one year’s post-graduate course, and be then subjected to a comipet- itive examination to define their relative position on the naval lists. The superin- tendent says that the appliances for the practical training of cadets are insufficient, and as seamanship cannot be taught alone by precept, he asks for two new practice ships of 9 tons, composite bark-rigged sailing vessels without steam. Nautical Sports Should Be Encouraged New boats of modern, type. are also badly needed, he suys, and, to encourage a disposition toward nautical sports, in- stead of the athletic field games which have been the resort in late years, it is recommended that the cadets be provided with various types of sailing boats, racing shells and handy light steamers. A pcr- manent plant of modern guns from 6-inch caliber down is also regarded as neces- sary for a proper training, and in con- clusion a strong plea ig put forth for the rehabilitation of the aeademic buildings, now antiquated and unfit for their pur- poses. y The report of Commander Brownson, up- on the practice cruise with the cadets on the Monongahela last summer, shows that the cadets evinced great interest in their work and that the cruise can hardly fail to be a benefit to them in the future. He condemns the old Monongahela as utterly unfit for a practice ship. —— A Story of Mystery. Do you know what a “Story of Mystery” is?

NEW GRAND JURY | Fall Power to Investigate the Government Printing Office. Judge Cole Instructs Them in Their Duties—Albion K. Parris the New Forema £ The grand jury for tke October term, which includes the months of October, No- vember and December, was organized to- day, and Judge Cole appointed Mr. Albion K. Parris as foreman of the body. Judge Cole instructed the grand jurors as to their duties at great length, and told them, among other things, that it was not only thelr privilege, but also their duty, to care- fully examine the government printing of- fice building and other public bulldings, and report as to their safety. The grand jury, explained Judge Cole, was perhaps the most important branch of the court, so far as the enforcement of the crimir.al laws is concerned. After de- firing the law as to dueling and treason, and exptaining the crime ef murder, Judge Ccle referred to the killing of persons by officers of the law. Sometimes such killing may be murder, while at other times it might be mansla“ghter or excusable hom- icide. But an officer has no more right to take life than any private person, he said, and if, in making or maintaining an ar- The New Foreman. rest, even for felony, the officer could have made or maintained the arrest in any other maurer, the killing would neither be ex- ensable nor justifizble. Referring to the crime of embezzlement, Judge Cole cau- ticned the grand jurors to be exceedingly careful, so that an indictmert could not be mede the means of collecting private debts. The grand jury, explained Judge Cole, has the right to examine the District pris- ons and report as to their management and as to the care of the inmates, and he advised that such a thing be done, although he remarked that he had no reason for doubting that all were well kept. The judge called attention to the charges made in the public press respecting the insecur- ity of the government printing office build- ing, and told the grand jurors that it is entirely in their province to visit that building for the purpose of carefully and closely examining it. What action the district attorney might base on their re- port Judge Cole said he would not under- take to say at this time. But the building should be examined and renorted upon. He also instructed the grand jurors that it would be entirely proper for them to ex- amine any other public building and report as to its safety, as well as to examine the various charitable institutions of the Dis- trict supported in whole or in part by the government. In conclusion, the court called the atten- tion of the grand jurors to their oath of office, cautioning them to keep wholly se- cret all of the proceedings before them. No one, he said, is privileged to know what transpires before them, and it was partic- ularly desirable that complete secrecy as to their proceedings should be maintained by them. ———__ » AFFAIRS IN GEORGETOWN Local Notes of Interest From Across Rock Creek.
