DUNN DEAD Superintendent of the Municipal Lodging House Passes Away. A Victim of Bright's Disease—His Good Work for the Unfortunate Tramps and the City. Mr. William H. Dunn, the superintendent of the Municipal Lodging House, died this morning at Garfield Hospital. He had been suffering considerably for some time past, but kept at his work faithfully until Sunday evening, when he was compelled to give up. Tuesday morning he was removed to the hospital, but It was too late, and he sank rapfdly until the end came. He had been a sufferer from Bright's disease, and this was the primary cause of death. He was a great user of tobacco, but recently he took a “cure” for the habit, and, in the opinion of the physicians, this aggravated his trouble. Served in the War. Mr. Dunn was in the neighborhood of fifty-five years of age; possibly a little more. He was from Michigan, and served with dis- tinction during the late war in the volunteer forces from his state. He was an active member of the G. A. R. He came to Wash- ington seven or eight years ago, with the political backing of the Michigan delegation and of the legislature of the state, expecting some desirable appointment, but, like many another, he did not get all he had hoped for, and ended up with a position on the Capitol ferce. He was a faithful official, however, and three or four years ago he Ss ap- pointed superintendent of the lodging house next door to the first precinct station house on 12th strect. He filled that position with a large measure of success, and brought the establishment up to a peint of usefulness it had not known before. Work at the Lodging House. In the death of Mr. Dunn the hobos and weary wanderers of the land lose at once a friend and an enemy. He had a large acquaintance with the idle and worthless class, as well as with the deserving poor, and he had an unusual knack of separating the sheep from the goats. He was a strict disciplinarian in the home, and men who were unwilling to saw enough wood to pay for a night’s lodging were accustomed to give the place a cold shoulder. He nad a stringent code of rules for its manage- ment, and, what was more, he enforced them. During the cold weather the house usually accommodates about seventy-five lodgers, but just now the average number is about fifty a night. The most of these are on their way south to see the Atlanta exposition and to spend their winter in the sunny south. To unfortunates who were honestly trying to get work Mr. Dunn was a genuine friend, and there are many men today who can say that they got fresh starts in life through his efforts. But by men who would rather face the plague than honest labor he was never looked upon as an “easy mark,” and, as a rule, they gave him the go-by. In the opinion of the police force, who were cognizant of his work, the home accomplished as much good with as small an expenditure of Money as any institution of the sort in the country. He was a firm believer in the virtues of cleanliness and manly labor, and he carried his creed into effect at all times; yet he was never without kindness and sympathy for the men who are “‘on the road,” either from choice or necessity. The place left vacant by his death will not be easily filled. THE ANACOSTIA STRIKE. Attempts to Derail Cars — The Muss Meeting Tomorrow. Attempts were made last night to throw cars from the tracks of the Anacostia Rail- way Company on the !lth street hill and near the north end of the Navy Yard bridge. In some instances these efforts were successful. Soon after dark a num- ber of men and youths congregated near the city. end of the bridge, and whenever a northbound car approached-some of the crowd, generally three or four, sprang on the rear platform and Jumped up and down. In this way in some cases the rear wheels were thrown from the rails and in every instance much discomfort was caused to the passengers. Another crowd located themselves at the corner of 11th and N streets southeast and boarded almost every car soing toward Anacostia, where they pursued the same tactics on the cars going up town. So far as could be scen in the darkness there was none of t locked-out men in the crowd. The cases of destitution among the cx- drivers of the railway company, already re- ferred to in The Star, have been relieved, mainly through the efforts of Mr. T. P. Green, who devoted the whole of yes*er- day to seeing that those in need were prop- erly cared for. Mr. Green has succ2eded in enlisting several charitable people in the cause. Sympathizers with the locked-out men, who are seemingly in the confidence of Master Workman Lawrence, say that the assembly expects to yet get President Gris- wold to re-employ the men now ont at $1.50, but Mr. Griswold told a Star repor‘er very emphatically last night that he was done with his former drivers and the Rail- way Assembly. Last night a notice was posted in a conspicuous place at the com- pany’s office in Anacostia notifying all the men now out to call today and get the money which they deposited with the treas- urer of the company as collateral when they went into the service of the road. In response to the notice a good many of the men today went to the railway office for their cash. It was found, however, that in a number of cases the men had destroyed, lost or mislaid the receipt given co them by Treasurer Pitcher when the deposit was made. In all such in- stances, however, President Griswold di- rected that upon the signing of a certifi- cate that the receipt was not obtainable the money should be paid them, and this was done. A hitch has arisen in regard to securing Masonic Hall for the mass meeting which kas been called for tomorrow night for the purpose of expressing sympathy with the iccked-out men. The members of Anacos- tia Lodge, F. A. A. M., and Electa Chap- ter, Order of the Eastern Star, have ar- ranged to have a bazaa there, commencing Monday next, for which the erection of booths began today, and the work of decorating will be commenced tomorrow. Some of the truste@ of the hall are afraid that if a mass meeting is held in the hall Friday night it will deiay the opening of the bazaar. It is expected, however, that the matter will be satisfactorily arranged. Meanwhile earnest efforts are being made to secure a big crowd at the mass meeting. Last night the statement was made, as an argument for standing by the strikers, that all the big railroad companies in the Dis- trict have agreed to back President Gris- wold in the present affair, it being, as is al- leged, to the interest of all of them to crush the assembly if possible. It is said that a number of ladies have promised to be pres- ent at the meeting. The coaches of the Street Railway As- sembly are today being operated as here- tofore. President Griswold said today that the receipts of the railway company yesterday were somewhat in excess of those for the corresponding day of last year. —— NEBRASKA IS REPUBLICAN, Norval Elected Supreme Judge by 25,000 Over the Populist Candidate. Late returns from Nebraska increase the figures of the republican triumph in state and county. Norval, republican, for judge of the su- preme court, has been elected by a pluraii- ty over Maxwell, populist, which may reach 25,000. The populists lost in almost every ccunty, and even the democrats made no better showing. The plurality of Capt. W. J. Broatch, republican, for mayor of Oma: ha, ‘s about 1,000, and the remainder of the city republican ticket Is elected by from 300 to 3,000 plurality.

The members of the Horseshoers’ Union last night, after discussing the question of the lockout of the Anacostia drivers, voted to assess themselves 25 cents each for the benefit of the strikers. The board of directors of the Working- men’s Library and Labor Bureau held their regular weekly meeting last night. M. D. Shenk, manager of the bureau, reported that many men who were out of employment had registered there, and that he had been very successful in securing work for them. The following were appointed as an execu- tive committee: Messrs. Keefe, E. F. Beck- man, M. D. Shenk, Mrs. Clagette and Mrs. Jennie L. Movroe.’ The directors adopted a resolution of thanks for the generous dona- tion of The Evening Star to the bureau. The Paper Hangers’ Association at their reeeting last night in Harris Hall voted to place the Anacostia railway on the unfair list, and donated $5 for the relief of the lccked-out men.

Col. J. M. Wilson hag, made a report to the chief of engineers of operations on public buildings and grounds during the month of October. Mino; repairs and im- provemerts were made to the Executive Mansion during the month. Arc electric lights have been placed over the east and west gateways on the north side of the mansion. The work of reupholstering the furniture in the east room is in progress. Col. Wilson says the old covering of this furniture is badly wort and would not last another season. The usual care was ex- tended to the large and valuable collection of plants in the conservatory and the vari- ous green houses. The propagation of plants for next season was continued, and a number of bulks were planted for winter bloom for use at official receptions. The Washington Monument. The Washirgton monument has been maintained in good condition. There were 11,283 visitors “to the top of the monument during the month, of which number 6,847 made the ascent by the elevator and 4,436 by the stairway, making a total of 1,152,599 persons who have visited the top since the monument was first opened for visitors, Oc- tober 9, 1888. All the Luildings occupied by the War Department and its bran:bes were inspect- ed during the month, and are believed to be in safe cordition for the purposes for which they are being used White House Grounds, The grounds south of the Executive Man- sion have been maintained in as good order as possible. The extensive damage done to roads and lawns while the construction of the large sewer has been in progress by the District Commissioners is now being repaired. Excavations in roads have been filled and graveled, and deep cuts in lawn filed, covered with soil ard compost and seeded down. Ii is expected that the park will be restored to its former condition by the spring of next year. Various improvemenis have been made to the public nursery and green houses. The propagation of subtropical and bedding plants for the parks during the season cf 1896 was continued during the month. About 70,000 bulbs and 8,000 chrysanthe- ELECTION DAY IN NEW YORK. Commissioner Roosevelt Praises the Good Work of His Force. President Roosevelt of the New York Police commissioners called together the officers of the force last night and said to them: “It is a matter of gratification to the board that we should yesterday have tad the most orderly and the most honest elec- tien that has been held in our time in this city, and the fact that never before has there been so little fraudulent registration, never before so little violence at the polls, is due to the action of the police. -I am in- formed by thos: who have been years in this building as outsiders that never before bas there been so few complaints of citi- zens against the police officers as at yes- terday’s election, and I wish also to state particularly how well the detective pureau did its work. “In conclusion, I want to say, the board will not tolerate the slightest relaxation in the enforcement of the law, and particu- larly of the excise law; and the board will hold to the most rigid accountability every man in whose precinct any such re- Jaxation occurs.”” Mr. Roosevelt subsequently expressed the opinion that the good order on election day was the result of the enforcement of the excise law that day. GROUT DOESN'T CONCEDE IT. The Vote for Mayor of Brooklyn Will Have to Be Canvassed. It looks in Brooklyn as if the mayoralty contest would be transferred to the courts. Mr. Grout refuses to concede the election of Mr. Wurster, and the regular democretic campaign committee has retained Gen. Al- met F. Jerks and Abram H. Dailey to look after Mr. Grout’s interests. A meeting of the regular executive committee has been called for the purpose of taking further action in the matter. Mr. Grout was asked if he conceded the election of Mr. Wurster. “I do not,” he replied. “For the reason that it was evident thai the returns that came out of police headquarters, 1s they came last night, were not to be relied upon. They did not come with the uniformity and regularity that the returns came on the state ticket. When it came to the arayor- alty, their returns first were all for Wurs- ter, and then for Grout. While they were all my way, certain well-known republicans were out trying to »lace bets. After an hour or two they returned to Wurster again. When they began to turn to Wurs- ter the police department issued a state- ment of figures, and in half an hour admit- ted an error of a couple of thousand in their statement. I do not care anything about the police department returns. I'his vote has got to be canvassed. There will be every means taken to properly examine this vote.” mums were sent out and plarted in the va- rious parks for spring and autumn decora- tion, and 0 bulbs of various kinds were potted for winter bloora for decoration of the Executive Mansion on state occasions. Parks and Reservations. In all the parks and reservations lawns have been raked of leaves, gutters and traps cleaned, roads and walks swept, and flower beds prepared for new plants. A number of flower beds have been seriously damaged during the season by dogs. Col. Wilson says it is surprising how inuch injury even a small pet dog can do in a few minutes when allowed to run into beds containing young ang tender plants. He gays that work has been in progress in a slow and somewhat unsatisfactory manner upon the pedestal for the Hancock statue. ‘Thé lower bases of the pedestal are in position, and it is expected that the structure will./e completed before the close of the present month, The Capitgl Spring. The releying, repairs, etc., to the Capitol spring pipe were completed during the mcnth to a point near the Capitol building, and the pipe thoroughly flushed up to the reservoir near the east front. During the work a stoppage was fqund to exist some- Where within the circuitous line of the pipe within the building. 4s,its exact location could not be determined, and the pipe had been in place for a half century, it was de- cided to lay a new line on a short and acces- sible route. This work is now in progress. Col. Wilson says it weujd have been com- pleted had his workmen not been subjected to annoying and apparently unnecessary delay on the part 6f the contractors for gai- vanized iron pipe in the delivery of material. There is now an excellent flow of water from the Capitol spring to the Capitol grounds. He says he expects ta complete the work within the building in 4 day or two. ———+-e-+— Gov. O’Ferrall’s Hopeful Prediction. Goy. O’Ferrall of Virginia, when asked what he thought of the result of the elec- tions, said: “he victory in Virginia, on the whole, is as great as I expected. It is true we have failed to elect our candidates in a ew instances where I thought we would succeed, but tkere were special causes. Next fall we will roll up a spiendid majority tor our national ticket. New York, Maryland and Kentucky were lost by democratic dis- sensions. This will only arousé them to the necessity of getting together next year. Ohio has gone, as usual, republican. New Jersey, also, in an off year. There is no reason for the democrats to be discouraged.” Grateful Women Write Us Letters. From every corner of the country eome thankful letters written by those who have been lifted into cheerful, vig- orous, healthy strength by Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescriptjon.

They have i. been made better wives and better mot‘iers by having perfect health restored, and without the humiliating exposure of examinations so generally insisted on by physicians.
