THE TEACH BAZAAR. More Retarns Made by the Canvans- ing Committee of Contributions. As time glides on preparations for the immense bazaar to be held in Convention Hall next month, under the auspices of the Teachers’ Annuity and Aid Association, increase. Plans for the arrangement of the hall have been completed, and already do- nations of a substantial character are be- ing turned in, many arriving from out-of- town merchants. A few days ago a Penn- sylvania firm sent a large quantity of candy, evidently being under the impres- sion that the bazaar would be held t month. As the goods would not keep fresh, it was decided to dispose of them, and that intention was soon aceomplished,the teach- ers, for the most part,being the purchasers. The canvassing committees have not dis- continued their efforts by any means, and those business men who have not been asked for donations will be approached within the next few days. Everything points to unprecedented success, and it is expected that the bazaar will be a revela- tion to the citizens of this city. Among the larger contributors to date are the following: Wm. Ballantyne & Sons, books, $40; Ginn & Co., books, $50; W. D. Hadger, Liberty bicycle, $100; Wyckoff, Seaman and Benedict, Bishop, cash, $2; Edward Mertz, manicure $100; Peter Grogan, set of furnitu Schmedtie Bros., silver pitcher, $: Bro., silverware, $35; W.

Several business buildings on that portion of Pennsylvania avenue between 12th and 13th streets, on the north side, near the latter thoroughfare, are being and will be improved. The improvement of the build- ing at the corner of 13th street and the ave- nue, which is being rapidly pushed in order to allow Mr. T. E. Ogram to occupy it as a drug store, Is to be followed by the improve- ment of the establishment of James R. Topham and the placing of a new front in Jacobs Bros.’ jewelry store, while Bernard cash, $25; Francis i Kopf, the tobacconist, will entirely remodel the building next to his present establish- ment and remove to it when the improve- ments er: completed. It is said that other improvements are also contemplated later on in the same block. ———_—_ Mr. Bailey's Statement. To the Editor of The Evening Star: Please permit me space to deny the im- putation which appeared in last evening's Star. Certain candidates for delegate to the republican national convention are quoted as saying that I “was a candidate for recorder of deeds when Mr. Cleveland appointed Tsylor,” and that I was then a democrat. It is true that I filed an ap- plication for the recordership of deeds, and sought the support of the good citizens of the District regardless of their politics, but neither in my application nor to any of my friends did I profess democracy. If any one should entertain a doubt on this point, I would refer him to Mr. A. A. Wil- son, the present marshal of the District of Columbia, When I sought that gentleman's infiu- ence in my behalf, he questioned me as to my democracy. I said to him in reply, “I ever was, and never shall. be I sought the office on the ground that the President should appoint some local colored man regardless of his politics. I now submit that there was good reason for that opinion, from the fact that so many republicans at that time still held office under the new administration. - L. C. BARLEY. _ Trial of Sanguilly. Julio Sangiilly, an American citizan, who Was arrested in February last, charged with rebellion against the Spanish govern- ment, in_whose case the Attorney Gen- eral, on October 16, asked that a sentence of imprisonment for life be imposed, will, it is now announced, be publicly tried in Cuba on November 23: THE SOCIAL WORLD Interest in the Coming International Weddings Increases. GOING 10 THE HORSE SHOW A Resume of Sociable Doings All Over the City. PERSONAL NOTES Departures for New York for the horse show and the opera will soon begin to be in order. The horse show commences No- vember 11, and a week later the opera. There will be some Washirgton guests also at the Vanderbilt-Mariborough weddin: though most of thore who will go on from here are members of the diplomatic corps. ‘There ts possibly nothing in the way of so- cial entertainment which could begin to be the attraction this wedding is to Washing- tonians, not only to those who had the gocd fortune to see the young couple at Newport last summer before and after their engagerrent, but also the bundreds who feel dead sure they would recognize them at once by the frequent descriptions thoy have read. Miss Whitney’s marriage with Mr. Hugh Almeric Paget, which is set for the 12th, will also attract a distinguished part of the official and resident world of the capital. It is understood that Mr. Prget and his bride will live in New York, ana rot at St. Paul, where the young En- slishman has made himself a strong factor in the manipulations of real estate. Preparations for the winter’s entertain- ments go blithely on. The ladies who never exert themselves till the last moment in getting together their receiving parties will find little consolation in the knowledge that Mrs. Miles Legan to ask the young ladies of her acquaintance the first week she came here if she could be sure of their company on New Year day, and, of course, taking time by the forelock in this way, she had few regrets to her invitations. Wedding cards are noticeably few, but the great events in life ere just as numer- ous as ever. The orthodox style of a big church weddirg and followed by large home receptions seems to be dying out. It is replaced by a ceremony at which only the family group are witnesses, and the company at the after festivities ts like- wise limited in number. Announcement cards after the affair are much more prev- alent than invitations to the ceremony. The conventional white satin and fixings are also going by default, and half of the verld thinks that perfectly right and preper, as the average young woman looks always the very worst possible in this un- relieved white elegance. Toward the last of this month quite a number of weddings will take place, most of which will be ar- ranged in this manner, although they will take place in church. Mrs. Annie E. Welcker has sent out cards for the marriage of her daughter, Beatrice Louise, to Mr. Franklin V. Killan, Wed- nesday, November 13, at 7:30 o'clock, at St. Paul's Lutheran Church, 11th and H streets northwest. A reception will follow from 8 to 11. The couple will be at home after December 10 at 1625 14th street. Miss Mary Osborne Condit Smith, Miss Edith McCammon ans Miss Alice Lang- horne are three more of the debuantes to add to this winter’s list. Miss May Keyworth Barbour went to New York today to visit friends, and will be joined a week later by her mother, Mrs. James F. Barbour, who is going on for the horse show. Mrs. Logan went to New York today and will sail next week for Europe and the Holy Land. ‘The engagement of Mr. J. H. Sweney of Towa and Miss Lilly A. Moss of this city bas been announced, Mr. and Mrs. M Neuhausel of Toledo, Ohio, who have been visiting Sergt. and Mrs. M. Byrnes, have returned home very much pleased with their visit to Wash- ington. A pleasant Halloween party was given at the home of Miss Maud Geod, 1227 i0th street northwest. Games were enjoyed, followed by the cutting of the dumb cake and refreshments. A mystic cobweb was unwound, the holders of the strings find- ing their future destiny foretold at the end. A®ong those rresent were Misses Tilena Desto, Madge Goggin, Meta Vick- erey, Cecelia Richmond, Jessie Good and Maud Good, Messrs. Harris, Berlin, Miller and Hastings. A dancing party was given Thursday evening at 1023 12th street northwest. The dancing hall was prettily decorated with palms and ferns. Among the guests were Misses Wolfe, Dolan, J. Gorman, O'Neill, M. Gorman, G. Dolan, Johnson, O'Connor, eatley, Sullivan, “R. Sullivan, A. Sulll- van, Jackson, Brosnan, McMahon, Nell, Bavers and Martin, and Messrs. Hoeke, Mcore, Palmer, Bauers, McNulty, Sullivan, Ryan, Abell, Becker, Lord, O’Conner, Rey- nuolds, Quinlan, Brosnan, Connor, Gorman and Elmore. The announcement of a party given at the residence of Miss Mary Wolfe, No. :W5 H street northeast, was erroneous. A company of young people took a straw ride last evening to Burnt Mills. In the party were Messrs. Bray, Stevenson, Wal- lace, Burcke, Callahan, St. Clair, Harmon and Dutton, and Misses Wiegman, Lim- brick, Thomas, O'Neil, Moore, Dutton, San- ford and Hancock. Each of Miss Vanderbilt's six bridesmaids will receive jeweled Mhtterflies as souvenirs of the wedding. The heads of the butterflies will be of rubies and the wings of diamonds and emeralds, and will cost $00 each. The souvenirs will be presented to the bridesmaids on Monday, after the rehearsal, when the bridesmaids will return with Miss Vanderbilt to her home for an afternoon tea and a glimpse of the wedding presents. Then they will go home to array themselves for the bridesmaids’ dinner, which will be given by Mrs. Brockholst Cutting. The ex- cessive activity of New York life appears to have tired the duke. That is why he is here, for he felt he needed repose. ‘The wedding gown is finished and has been tried on. It fits perfectly. It is in this robe, made in this country, that the newest Duchess of Marlborough will be presented to the queen, and it is promised that no former Duchess of Marlborough will have excelled her in the magnificence of her raiment. One of the two dresses which have just been finished by a costumer for Miss Van- derbilt’s trousseau may be selected as her “going-away” gown. The most elegant of these, and one which would be quite fitting for the short railway journey to Idlehour, where the first few days of the honeymoon will he spent, is of broadcloth. The full flar- ing skirt is bordered about the lower edges with a three-inch band of marten, which harmonizes beautifully with the fabric. A postilion basque, cut after the Marie Antoinette style, with voluminous ripple ef- fect, is to be worn with it. A vest of curious coppery bronze-embroidered mousseline is draped in bouffant manner over a folded cloth girdle. Animal heads are used in lieu of buttons, where a semblance of some mode of fastening is necessary. A box coat com- pletes this swagger rig. The seams of the coat are strapped, and it ts buttoned loosely acress the front. A high, straight collar fits snugiy about the neck. An arrangement of claws and tails associated with chiffon of coppery tint suggests a boa, and reaches the vaist line. Military cuffs finish off the gen- ercusly proportioned melon sleeves and give a decidedly English air to the garment, without which no outer wrap is up to date. The other fetching costume, which is de- cidedly novel, has a skirt of plaid. The warmth and brilliancy of coloring is par- ticularly attractive. Dark maroon, olive- green and black are the shades, which are perfectly blended in the formation of the striking broad plaids. The bodice is maroon satin, covered with black silk guipure lace. It does not extend below the waist, and with it will be worn a black satin belt spangled in jet disks. The sleeves are of the style known us bishop, which is now so much in vogue. A slightly artistic touch of originality is given the fetching frock by a triple collar, one part of which is of olive satin, lined with a contrast- ing shade of silk, another of black, and the third of maroon satin, attached to a crumpled stock of the same. An elaborate short cape of maroon velvet is made to be worn with it, and is cut in picturesque style, sonforming to a mediaeval design. A pleasant Halloween party was given hy the Misses Hodgson at their country home, Good Hope, D. C. The evening was spent in games, and dancing was kept up until midnight, when supper was served. The dining room was decorated with palms and chrysanthemums.

Mr. im Montgomery County Contrasted With Mr. Me- Warner's Case loy's in Prince George’ A keen interest is felt among residents of Maryland who are engaged in business in Washington and spend the winter sea- son here in the decisions made by the re- spective courts of Montgomery and Prince George's counties. Mr. Warner's Case. Mr. B. H. Warner appealed from the de- cision of the registration officer at Whea- ton, Md., in refusing to register him on the ground that he had never lived twelve months continuously in the state of Mary- land. Mr. Warner's case is briefly this: He moved to the state of Maryland in 1Sv2. ‘Two years previous he had purchased a large tract of land and laid out the town of Kensington, which hes grown so pros- perously that it is now under the control of a mayor and commen council, has a town hall and, what Washington does not possess, a free library for the use of its citizens. Mr. Warner has resided in the state during the summer months for the past four years. He made the affidavit re- quired by the act of the Maryland legisla- ture of 1892 upon his removal to Washing- ton last fall, and filed the same with the Yelerk of the court in order that his right to vote might not be questioned. He went out to his house on the 2d of May and re- mained over night, but did not remove his family there until the 2th of that month. The register also held that as he did rot temove his family before May 5 he could not register. ‘The case was ably argued by Messrs. Ashley M. Gould and Marion Dorian for Mr. Warner and E. C. Peter, state’s atter- ney, for the registration officer. Judge Lynch, in rendering his decision, stated that he regarded the right of citizenship one that should not be dealt with by the narrowest construction of the law; that the statutes were made for the purpose of pro- tecting voters, and not to prohibit them from the exercise of the elective franchis that it was not necessary to reside twelve months continuously in the state or to re- main any particular time, providing the residence had been entered into in gcod faith; that Mr. Warner had complied with the requirements of the statute, admitting it to be constitutional, by returning and re- maining one night six months prior to the election. If this decision had been rendered a month sooner undoubtedly several hundred voters would have been added to the regis- tration lists in the different districts. Mr. E. C. Peter, state’s attorney, en- nounced his intention to carry the case to the court of appeals, when, doubtless, the constitutionality of the whole law will be brought Into question. The Case of Mr. Meloy. In the case of Mr. Wm. A. Meloy of Prince George's county, the judge at Marl- boro’ to whom the appeal from the regis- tration officer came, refused to restore Mr. Meloy’s name to the registry of voters. Mr. Meloy began his residence upward of twenty-five yeers ago and has been con- tinuously ever since an actual resident and registered voter of Prince George's county. On the 3ist of October, 1894, he took his wife and children and came to the city by train with their trunks, to his city abode. He left his house and long-established home not vacant, but occupied constantly by his servant, his furniture, &c., in all respects as during the summer months, and both himself and other members of his family were there weekly and some times for days together, living in the house. Feeling that under such circumstances he could not conscientiously make an affidavit “that he vacated and removed from his habitation, dwelling place, domicile or abode and took up his abode out of the state,” he did not make the affidavit de- ded by the law. mor want of this affidavit the Prince George's court declared he had vacated his abode and was not entitled to registration as a qualified voter.

ALL THE CARS RUNNING Trouble With the Anacostia Lockout Apparently Over, The Meeting Last Sight—Many Men Applying for Work—What Mr. Trainor Says. All trouble in regard to the operations of the Anacostia Railway Company, whose drivers were locked out by President Gris- wold’s order Tuesday last, appears to have passed away, and today as many cars are being run and with as good results as at any time before the lock-out began. Late yesterday afternoon hand bills, to which were attached the signatures «f several who were prominent in the meet- irgs held in sympathy with the drivers who siruck last summer,were spread broad- cast throughout Anacostia, in which ithe citizens were asked to attend a mass mect- ing, to be held at Masonic Hall last night, for the purpose of extgnding sympathy to the locked-out men. : Last Night's Citizens’ Meeting. The response to the appeal was not hearty, and only about a hundred persons were present at the meeting. The number of property owners who attended was very small, and the audience was composed mainly of the locked-out men who have not been re-emplayed and their frienJs, mary of whom came from the city. There were but few citizens of Anacostia pres- ent, and there was a great lack of en- thusiasm. The meeting was presided over by Mr. C. Van Hoy, and Messrs. T. P. Green and 1 H. Peck acted as secretaries. Speeches were made by those named, and Master Workman Lawrence of the Street Rallway Assembly, F. M. Dent, its secretary, and a member of the committee which made an agreement Saturday last with Mr. Gris- wold that the Anacostia drivers would ac- cept the pay proposed by Mr. Griswold from Sunday last until next spring; T. P. Green, Dr. George C. Havenner, J. M. Keating, J. M. Trainor, and others. Resolutions were passed pledging those present not to ride on the cars of the line until President Griswold skall re-employ all his old drivers at $1.50 per day. Plenty of Men Apply for Work. Applications for situations as drivers continue to be received by Mr. Griswold from many men, some of whom have also served as drivers of cars, and this morning when a Star reporter called at Mr. Gris- wold’s office the ante room was packed with men seeking employment. All were referred to Superintendent Newton, who has been able, he says, to get as good men as have ever been employed by the com- pany. Blockade This Morning. The stoppage this morning of the Metro- pelitan company’s 9th street line by rea- son of an accident at the power house, at the foot of 4% street southwest, caused a blockade of the cars of the Anacostia line on Missouri avenue, 6th and B streets, from 4% to 9th streets northwest, and.for an hour or so traffic on the Anacostia line was entirely suspended, but the matter was finally remedied through the action of Superintendent Newton, who had the Anacostia cars jumped from the north- bound tracks at the place of blockade and transferred to the south track, and by this means the ‘nterruption to travel between the city and Anacostia was overcome. Line of "Buses Proposed. It Is stated, as already published in The Star, by those who claim to be well in- formed on the matter, that the Street Rail- way Assembly will in the course of a day or two inaugurate a system of coaches be- tween Anacostia and the navy yard termi- nus of the cable line, with the view of tracting travel from the cars of the Ana- ecstia line. This course was pursued by the same parties during the strike of last summer, but the results were far from sat- isfactory. ‘At that time each coach had on its side a sign stating that passengers would be car- ried free between Anacostia and the cable terminus, while inside the coach a box was placed, and riders were invited to drop a contribution in it. Some persons deposited their nickel, while others put as much as half a dollar, according to the amount of sympathy they had for the strikers. The great majority, however, took the signs on the coach to mean what they sald, and rode “Free,” and it is considered uncertain how long a free line could be maintained. What Mr. Trainor Says. Referring to the probable outcome of the trouble between the Anacostia Railway Company and its locked-out men, Mr. James Trainor, a member of the executive board of the Protective Street Railway Assembly, to- day said to a Star reporter: “It is impossible to predict how the matter will end until after District Assembly No. 66, K. of L., and the executive board of the Knights of Labor shall have acted upon it. The matter of the lockout will be duly reported to Dis- trict Assembly 66 at their meeting Thursday night next, when, I expect, a committee will be appointed by that body to make an inves- tigation of the whole subject and to submit a report at a future meeting. In due course the existence of the trouble will be reported to the executive board of the Knights of Labor, whose headquarters are in this city, and they also will appoint a committee of investigation. “If the difficulties in question had arisen from a strike of the drivers it might be easier to foreshadow what the next step that shall be taken would be, but as it was Mr. Griswold who did the ‘striking," or, as the case actually stands, locked his men out, there are some features about the matter that may make a settlement that shall be satisfactory to the men much more difi- cult. NO DEFECT IN THE SYSTEM An Accident Canses the Stoppages of Ninth Street Electric Oars. Due to a Peculiar Occurrence at the New York Avenue Crossing of the Columbia Road. ———_ The electric cars on the 9th street branch of the Metropolitan railroad were stopped for several hours this morning, and ihe bad weather prevailing, and the fact that it was Saturday, caused a large number of persors to be seriously inconvenienced. Following the cessation of traffic on the same line for a long time Thursday nighz, when the weather was similar to that of teday, this morning’s stop gave a great miny people the impression that there was seme defect in the system which continued bad weather was nesled to discover. In- qviry at the offices of the company, how- ever, disclosed the fact that the satiated of the cars this morning, as well as on Thursday night, was due to a peculiar ac- cident at the junction of the 9th street and Cclumbia roads at New York avenue und %th street. To a Star reporter this after- noon President Phillips of the Metropolitan Ccmpany explained the matter. “The grip of the Columbia railroad raises their cabie so high,” he said, “that if either the Columbia cars or the Metropolitan cars pass close to one another there is not suf- ficient clearance for the electric plow. On some occasions, we do not know when, the cable bas caught the electric plow and broken the insulator immediately next to the cable. The insulator being broken, it was not able to resist the rain of day be- fore yesterday, and a short circuit was es- tablished, by which the box of the insulator ~a cast-iron case which the insulator fits in—was burned out. When the end of the rail at the cable crossing lost the support of this insulator it got out of line, and the electric plow struck it this morning and disarranged the insulators for a space of pat piteiee fined feet before it was learn. y the motorman that y damage had been done.” ree Mr. Phillips said there was no chance for @ repetition of the vexatious affair, as new insulators had been put in and instructions = pert aden ~ motormen to keep a suf- cient distance from Columbia cars crossing their tracks, yo ——.__ Wheelmen Discuss Old Times. The Washington Cycle Club, one of the oldest cycling clubs in the city, gave a banquet last evening. Those present were all veteran riders of the wheel, and many reminiscences of the old wheeling days were related, the comparisons made be- tween the cyclirg of today and that of ten or twelve years ago being interesting and amusing.
