ONE EXCEPTION. ——__+—_—__ Georgetown is greatly interested in the projected entrance of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad. The coming of the road is the principal topic of conversation among business men, and the sentiment reldtive thereto is practically unanimous in its favor. Owing to the existence of the long trestle westward toward the District line, where the Metropolitan southern extension is met, and the Water street branch, already laid, but little time need be occupied in perfect- ing the connection. Below are some ex- pressions from leading citizens on the com- ing of the road and its effect upon the town: Mr. Geo. G. Boteler has long been recog- nized here as 2 man posted on the move- ments of the railroads, cnd his efforts with the Citizens’ Association and individually to secure raltroad aivantages for George- town have in ro smali way been appreci- ated by the people and considered by tke corporations. He sail to Tie Star reperter. “I am heartily in favor of grenting any and all railroads a right to enter George- town under proper regulations. The peo- ple here were outrageously treated by one or two narrow-minded Senators in defeat- ing the Norfolk and Western charter. Of course I would be opposed to granting any more privileges to the Baltimore and Ohio or any road to simply get possession of Water street for the purpose of permitting doing ‘the dog-in-the-manger’ act. The Commissioners, I suppose, know their ow2 business best, but I den’t think they should have granted a permit to lay an- other track on Water street without first having demanded a guarantee to insure the use cf the travk within a reasonable time. Our firm is hauling 1,000 tons of ma terial from Water street yearly for three miles through the streets of Washington in order to reach the present depots. We dor’t want tracks only, but a live read in operation.” In Earnest. Chas. H. Fickling: “I have talked with the officials of the Baltimore and Ohio, and have no doubt but that they are in earnest in this matter. I think that it is only a matter of a very short time when George- town will have the Baltimore and Ohio.” Postmaster Hutchins said: “Put me down as a railroad man altogether. I think the Baltimore and Ohio people are serious, be- cause this town is the only available con- necting link between the north and south. This move Is a forced card with them. The toot of the locomotive will be heard here in a very short time, I honestly believe.” Waiter L. Weaver, hardware: “I am in favor of their coming in on a single track— the one already laid—and after the entrance sive them double tracks, treble switches or anything else in reason—but I am opposed to granting privileges now which can be used to exclude other roads while chey hold off themselves.” Lacking in Faith. Capt. Jos. H. Lee, the Water street mer- chant, said: “I am in favor of a road com- ing in under any circumstances, but I haven't much faith in the Baltimore and Ohio's present move. I'll have to see the engine coming down before I will believe in the company’s earnestness. Under the Present condition of things people don’t know what to do. Many desire to make improvements along the proposed line, but are hesitating over the possibility of being moved.’ Mr. H. G. Wagner believes this move of the Baitimore and Ohio people to be a “bluff” to cover up some other scheme or project on foot, but he is heartily in fa- vor of the entrance of a railroad. “I'm in favor of anything that will bring business into Georgetown,’ he sald, “and think that the steam engine always has prosperity at its heels.” Business Prosperity. Mr, R. A. Casilear, the real estate dealer, said The entrance of the Baltimore and Ohio would give a new life to business and cause an immediate Jump in property val- ues. Water street has heen dead for years, many of, the wharves are grass grown and half the once packed ware- 4 houses have not been occupied for any length of time for a decade. A railrcad on Water street would lubricate the wheels of trade and cause a perfect hum here. Put me down as being a warm advocate of the projected cxtension,” said Mr. Casi- lear. Lieut. John A. Swindells: “Am I in fa- vor of a railroad entering Georgetown?” Yes, sir! A railroad is the life blood of a place. Let those who object to the noise and rattle move up town. There is plenty of room on ‘the heights’ for people with delicate nerves.” An Exception. Mr. William A. Cunningham was the only indifferent citizen encountered. He does not see where a railroad would benefit the town, does not care whether the Baitimore and Ohio comes in or stays out. He does nut think that railroads are necessary to the prosperity of the place. Mr. Jesse H. Wilson: “‘No town without a railread lives. It is merely a speck upon the map—a place that. exists without heart pulsations. If we want to become a living, breathing, moving factor in the commercial World we must first possess ourselves of a railroad.” Mr. Charles H. Trunnell said: “We have worked for and wanted badly a railroad for fifty years, and ne needed one so much as now. Who doesn’t want one?” he added vehemently. Mr. George W. King, who has worked for, prayed for and pleaded for railroad facili- ties, is happy—supremely happy—now. He believes at last in the efficacy of prayer. Mr. King says the entrance of the road will bring immediate prosperity, such as we are told the town enjoyed in the days of old, when it was the mouth of Marylani's trade, and when ships galore crowded at the wharves. The town will take a new lease on life and prosperity. —— Entertaining Foreign Letters.

Crofton, commander of the fifteenth Infantry at Fort Sheridan, near Chicago, narrowly escaped dezth,’ or at least a severe wound, at the hands of Lieut. S. S. Pague of company F, fifteenth infantry, yesterday afternoon. The Keuten- ant fired ee shots at the colonel. One passed through a loose fold of his over- coat, just over the right groin, the second and third passed close to the body. Lieut. Pagve a few moments before had escaped from the hospital, where he had been undergoing treatment for mental trouble, occasioned, it is said, by over-in- @ulgence in liquor. At the fort last night it was said the lieutenant was not respon- sible for act, end that his meeting with Col. Crofton was a Chance meeting. Lieut. Pague some months ago spent sev- eral weeks at a liquor cure establishment. The noise of the shots brought several ofticers to the spot, and before Pague fired again he was seized and disarmed. Ac- cording to the officers who took him in charge he did not seem to realize what he had done, an@ a few moments after did not seem’ to remember that he fired any shots at all. Lieut. Pague is about forty years olé He graduated from West Point about 1 and has seen active service in the west He is considered an able officer. ee Cotton Mills Burned. One of the largest fires that has ever oc- curred in southeastern New England broke cut in one of the three mills of the War- ren Manufacturing Company at Warren, R. I, yesterday afternoon, and be- fore it was put under control it had swept through three large cotton milis, two warehouses, small sheds, freight cars and other property, causing a loss whica ig estimated at more than a million dol- lars. By most persistent and arduous efforts the firemen gained control of the confla- gration at midnight, but all that was left of the big factories was a blazing pile of ruins. The entire contents of the plant were destroyed. Several persons in the crowd of specta- tors were injured by flying bricks, but nene were seriously hurt. When the roof of the warehouse fell, four Providence firemen were caught. They escaped by crawling down the water pipe and then jumping a distance of seventeen feet. Two were slightly injured. ———__ -+ e+ --__ BALTIMORE NOMINATIONS. Democrats and Republicans Name the Local Ticket.

It was eight or nine years ago, and the cars containing the animals were unloaded near the Canal street freight house. The animals were guided across Exchange place by attendants, and the elephants went along very peaceably. They hadn't gone a great distance, how- ever, when Jumbo’s back began to Itch. The big elephant tried to reach the place with his trunk, but didn't manage to. So he stepped from the lipe and looked for some suitable place against which to rub his back. There were two objects in sight, a big flagstaff and Paddy Burne’ shanty, which stood in the rear of the Three Ones’ fire station. Jumbo picked out the shanty, and by the time he had relieved his feelings things inside were upside down, and the building had nearly been removed from its foundations and shoved into the water. Paddy Burns looked for a lawyer, and found the late Ambrose E. West. The at- torney issued a writ and gave it to a deputy sheriff, with Instructions to attach Jumbo. The officer presented the paper to the treasurer of the circus, and then took up a Fosition near the elephant, but out of the reach of the swing cf his trunk. The bill for damages was promptly set- tled, but the officer said afterward that if the animal had decided to walk away he hadn't, any idea how ‘he could have pro- ceeded to enforce the law by compelling him to remain. ——_——— ee. Reception to High Officers, I. 0. R. ‘Wednesday evening the hall of Cammack and Covenant Tents of Rechabites was filled with an appreciative audience, com- posed mainly of Rechabites. It was the oc- casion of a reception to the resident High Tent officers of the Independent Order of Rechabites of North America. An hour of musical and literary entertainment was followed by refreshments. Addresses were made by High Chief Ruler Mahoney, High Secretary Dony, P. C. R. Goff, chairman; Rev. Hugh Stevenson of Anacostia Tent and Mr. Hartsock of Gammack Tent. On the platform, in addition to the above men- tioned, were the chief rulers of the several tents in this jurisdiction. Letters of re- gret were read from the high treasurer and the high lecturer, both being unable to get to the city, the former because of Illness and -the latter ‘because of business engage- ments. After a pleasant evening the audi- ence dispersed at a late hour. SUNDAY OBSERVANCE Resolution by the Eucharistic Con- gress in Its Favor. AN ARMENIAN MISSIONARY TALKS Brilliant-Reception Given at the Carroll Institute. PLEASANT SPEECHES MADE The eucharistic congress of the Catholic Church completed its sessions last night with a procession, led by Cardinal Gibbons, and including most of the archbishops, bishops and dignitaries of the American Fierarchy, through the Catholic University grcunds to the steps of McMahon Hail, where the cardinal pronounced -the bene- diction. It was an imposing demonstration, bringing to a fitting close the most notable gathering of the clergy in the history of the church in this country. Prior to the pro- cession the business of the congress was concluded by the passage of a resolution embodying the results accomplished. A sig- nificant feature of the resolution was its strong statement in favor of Sunday ob- servance, as a practical means of sanctify- ing the holy eucharist. The resolutions also reaffirmed full adherence to the declara- tions of the third ecumenical conference at Baltimore on the Sunday question, the chief point in that declaration being that saloons should be closed on Sunday. Archbishop Corrigan of New York and other high pre- lates were on the platform when this reso- lution was read and unanimously adopted. An Armenian Missionary. Two sessions during the day were occupied with the reading of papers concerning the eucharist. The paper of Rev. Joseph Yaz- beck, the Armenian missionary, attracted marked attention, owing to tne Turko-Ar- mentian riots and the efforts of Pope Leo to return the eastern church to papal authori- ty. Rev. Yazbeck said that of the 3,000,000 Armenians, only about 100,000 were allied with the Catholic church. He doubted whether it would be possible to bring back the princes and patriarchs of the east. But he pointed out that the separation was for- mal to a large extent, the only important features being that the eastern church did not acknowledge the supremacy of the pope. It had the Catholic mass and ceremony Hundreds of Armenians had said to him: “There is no real difference between us; Jet the shepherds agree and we will follow.” He closed with an excellent exhortation that the eastern church might be brought back before Pope Leo's death, In order that the pontiff’s great desire might be accomplished After reading his paper, Rev. Yazbeck said to a reporter that he believed the re- ports of the riot in Constantinople to result from the desire to arofise the British to | action. British warships were now in the Bosphorus, and the reports of outrage would doubtless stimulate England to decisive ac- tion. He said that the massacre of Arme- nians had been very great, rivaling to some extent the massacre of Syrians by Turks, where the number of killed reached 20,000. The Tabernacle Society. Bishop Horstman of Cleveland presented the report of the superioress of the Taber- racle Society, showing the extensive work done by women in preparing vestments and altar furnishings. Bishop Keane made a similar report, showing the work of Wash- ington women in the same direction. It showed that the Ladies’ Tabernacle of this city had disbursed the very large sum of $60,000, had aided 1,209 churches and mis- sions and had distributed 20,605 articles of use In churches. Rev. Walter Elliott of New York read the resolutions agreed on. Resolutions of com- pliment and thanks to the Catholic Uni- versity were passed, and the congress closed with the procession through the university grounds. Apportioning Mission Funds. Cardinal Gibbons and Archbishops Ryan ard Kain, constituting a committee to direct the funds for Indian and negro mis- sion work, concluded their sessions today. A member of the committee was authority for the statement that the sessions were confined to a consideration of the needs of the several mission schools. After working all day the apportionment was completed. No question as to the status or purposes of Monsignor Stephan, director of the Indian mission bureau, arose, nor did any political consideration come up, the apportionment being made on the merit and needs of the several schools. Reception at Carroll Institute. The delegates to the eucharistic congress were entertained at a reception given in their honor last evening at the Carroll Institute.. During the history of this pop- ular and successful organization there have been many noteworthy events within the Walls cf its hospitable home, but rarely, if ever, any that would compare with the en- tertainment of last evening. The big building was elaborately deco- rated with plants and flowers, while the stars and stripes were draped in great pro- fusion everywhere. Shortly after 8 o'clock the crowd began to come in a steady line, so that soon the accommodations of the institute were taxed. Bishop Maes of Cov- ington, Ky., as president of the ucharis- tic League was welcomed as representing that organization, and mada a speech in which he voiced its sentiments and out- lined its purposes. 3 The guests were given a hearty welcome on crossing the threshold of the institute and were at once made to feel perfectly at home. There was a large turnout of ladies and the hig hall was a scene of beauty long before the arrival of the dig- nitaries of the church. While waiting, the orchestra of the Carroll Institute render- ed_a musical program in capital style. The executive commiltee for the recep- tion was compose of President George Bogus, Messrs. Lawrence Gardner, J. A. Hannan, William H. De Lacey, William S. McCarthy, Franzis Miller, Major E. Mal- let and D.-I. Murphy. The reception committe consisted of the following members: Wm.H.DeLacey, chair- mun, and Messrs. Bogus, N. H. Shea, Tay- lor, Gardner, E. J. Hannan, Sohon, Major Mallet, Messrs.

Keane, the rector of the Catholic University. The opening of Mc- Mahon Hall has vastly increased the re- sources of the- university in educational work, but its inauguration with the attend- ant crowd of guests meant no small amount of labor to the faculty of the university, upon whom devolved the management of the thousand and one details which go to make such an affair a success. Speaking of tke matter with a Star reporter, Bishop Keane sa‘d: “The present week, marking, as it did, the opening of the new hall and the meet- ing of the eucharistic congress, was awaited by us not without some apprehension. Yet, when the business of the week got fairly started, it seemed to run itself, so thor- oughly were all those present imbued with a sense of its impcrtance and meaning. I think I may say that everything went off with surprising smoothness, and that the present week will Le long remembered in the Catholic world. “The cpening of McMahon Hall and the inauguration of the new schcols of study mark an epoch in the history*of education in this country. At the opening exercises Tuesday afternoon President Gilman of Johns Hopkins University cceupied a seat upon the platform and seemed to take the greatest interest in everything pertaining to our work. He was so impressed by the importance of the occasion that upon his return to Baltimore he sent me a letter written in the most enthusiastic terms. He said that in his opinion October 1, 1895, ‘ked an epoch in the development of cur character. The expression of such broad and noble views as were voiced on that occasion by the different speakers, men of the highest character and standing in the educational world, was an event the importance of which could not be exag- gerated. “The opentrg of the new schools of phil- osophy and the social sciences has already attracted about forty students to the uni- versity. This is, of course, apart from the attendance upon the divinity school, which is entering now on its seventh year, and is a number considerably in advance of anything that we had been led to expect. “As to the congress cf the Eucharistic League, that is a matter of which I can speak only with the deepest feeling of ad- miration. As a gathering of the clergy drawn together solely and only by a desire to advance God’s kingdom on carth and by devotion to His holy sacrament it can but result in a blessing to the church and to the city. There was nothing of the worldly or political in their deliberations, ard there is no man, whatever his creed may be, who can take exception to such a gathering or criticize its motives. The ccngress was actuated solely by love and devotion to the Eucharistic Lord, and any attempt to attach a political significance to it does rot even deserve an answer.” Good Stories. Saturday’s Star will contain several in- teresting stortes. In addition to a delight- ful story from the pen of Anthony Hope, published entire, the concluding chapters of “The Foundry Foreman,” which is be- gun in today’s Star, will be published. There will also be some good short stories. FINANCIAL. REPORT OF THE CONDITION Of the ft NATIONAL SAFE DEPOSIT, SAVINGS AND TRUST COMPANY OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA.
