AARON BRADSHAW He Apparently Captured a Perry Carson Meeting, Se Se SCENES OF THE WILDEST DISORDER Adjourned Amid Confusion and the Gas Turned Out. ~ SOME OF THE INCIDENTS Amid wildest disorder a joint meet- ing of the republican campaign clubs of the eighth, ninth and thirteenth dis- tricts last evening in Mount Pisgah Church developed into a scene seldom equaled. The established rule was reversed, and the meeting, which, for two. hours, had been rousing in favor of Col. Perry Carson, was captured, apparently completely, by a white candidate, Aaron Bradshaw. Aside from the demonstration caused by Mr. Bradshaw, and which summarily brought the meeting to a close, there were numberless incidents that made the pro- ceedings decidedly lively. A well-known colored citizen, Josh Green by name, rather had the meeting all to himself for an hour or so, and then things were peaceful until Mr. Bradshaw took the floor. Josh Green’s Enthusiasm. The church was crowded when the pre- siding officer, Joseph Ambush, rapped for order. Every bench was crowded, and the floor space was entirely occupied, as were the window sills. Newcomers arrived con- Stantly, so that about the middle of the evening the crowding was of sardine in- tensity. At the very start Josh Green, who, it was apparent, had been imbibing intoxi- “Any gemmen that wants to fight mus’ go outside.” cants to some extent, let everybody know that he was present. When Mr. Ambush tapped on the table with his gavel, Josh, who was ensconced in a corner behind the furnace, shouted, “Rap ’em down.” “You will oblige me very much by keeping quiet,” remarked the president. “Though every candidate may speak, this is em- phatically a Carson meeting.” “I am wid you,” again shouted Josh. The first speaker was James Bell, a can- didate for delegate, and he went on to :ay that if the local republicans did not suit the national committee as to the conduct of the meetings, the local people would hold meetings to suit themselves. This expres- sion of independence evidently met with the unqualified approval of Mr. Jesh Green, for in stentorian tones he interrupted, “Talk for me. Old Josh Green is a Perry Carson man, and you can’t buy him.’”” “Mr. Green,” said President Ambush, pointing his gavel at the offender— “Mr. President, don’t shoot me.” “Keep quiet. If the sergeant-at-arms can’t put you out, there are plenty of others who can.” < right, Mr. President,” responded Josh, “you will have to put me out. I drinks my whisky, but I am a Perry Car- son man.” “As I was saying,” Mr. Bell resumed, “Perry Carson is the only man—' “Talk for me. Hurrah for Perry Car- son.” It was plain that Mr. Green was in no condition to restrain his enthusiasm, so the sergeant-at-arms gently ejected him from the hall, the last heard of him being, “Talk for me.” S Mr. Bell Resumes His Speech. Mr. Bell, after indorsing Carson and Parker, criticised in detail the other speak- ers, and had just said, “If you have cne drop of African blood in your veins, that makes you a negro, and you can’t break away,” When a head was poked through the doorway and the now familiar. “Talk for me” again rang out. The proceedings were thereby interrupted for a few minutes, and when things again grew quiet Josh quietly entered and resumed his original position behind the furnace. “Gentlemen, I support Perry Carson,” said Mr. Bell, in conclusion. “And so do Josh,” came in a bellow from behind the furnace. “When election day. comes don’t sell your vote for money,” added Mr. Bell. “Or a drink of whisky,” Josh supple- mented. After Mr. R. R. Fletcher had spoken in fa- vor of Parker, Mr. Green staggered to the front and demanded the floor. “Put him out,” “Let him speak,” “Set him down,” “He’s got a right to talk” and other cries followed. “If you are born with a silver spoon in your mouth and have not passed through the fiery ordeal,” began Josh, in grandilo- quent terms, but he was not permitted to go further, for his words caused great en- “A side issue.” thusiasm. Hats were thrown in the air, and there was stamping and cheering. The speaker seemed satisfied with the result of bis effort, retired to his corner, and there- after maintained a fair degree of silence. It was not intended that matters should be peaceful very long, for as Mr. L, H. Pe- ters was remarking that he was “glad they don’t sell whisky in Hell’s Bottom that is able to wipe out the spirit of Perry Carson,” an individual in the rear of the room shout- ed: “Hurrah for Bailey,” and dashed out the doorway. “Yes; you say hurrah for Bailey, and then leave the hall,” said Mr. Peters. A Free Fight Imminent. . ~ At this point an individual in the crowd insinuated that the speaker was not loyal to his race, and there were cries of “Put him out.” “Well, let’s see you put me out,” was the reply, .nd for a moment a free fight seemed imminent. Mr. H. A. Clark, who stated that he was resent at the request of Col. Carson, was a . an waleiad tn thee auuthoust corner of the room. ‘The president rapped for order and shouted: q or will we bave “Yes, sir,” answered a small, peaked from the midst of the throng; “you won't hear no more Uncle Bob.’ es were made by J. C. Wright, ‘Thomas L. Jones and ne = eat See tinually forsed to remind disorderly persons that if they wanted to fight to go out on the sidewalk, for the tumult resulting from many quarrels was more than noticeable. Mr. Bradshaw Appears. About 10 o’clock Mr. Bradshaw, with four white supporters, entered the hall and took seats on the platform. Mr. Bradshaw re- peatedly asked the president for an oppor- tunity to speak, and was answered that he would be given the floor in due course of | time, as the meeting would probably con- tinue until 12 or 1 o'clock. An advantage “Mr. Green comes back.” was taken of an opportunity, however,when the president started up a collection to pay for the use of the church. Mr. Bradshaw jumped to his feet, and with many gesticu- lations declared himself to be the only friend ©f the negro in the District. He con- tinued on this line for some time, when the president interrupted to say that his five minutes had expired and he must resume his seat. “I won't sit down. The people want. me, and I am going to speak. Do you hear that?” shouted Mr. Bradshaw. “I’m running this meeting, and I say you won't speak any longer,” replied Mr. Am- bush, with determination. Instantly there was confusion. “Bradshaw! Bradshaw! Let him speak!” Tang out from all sides. But these expres- sions were met with “Shut him up!” “Set him down!” The portion of the audience that was seated mounted the benches; canes and sticks were waved in the air, and every one was shouting at the same time. One of Mr. Bradshaw's white friends advanced to the presiding officer and in threatening tones asked if the meeting wasn’t intended 'o give expression to free speech. Mr. Am- bush replied in an equally aggressive man- ner, and probably thinking that blows would be exchanged a sccre or more of the excited persons mounted the platform and it looked very much as though the meet- ing would develop into a race riot. He Gets in His Work. The president pounded on the table be- fore him with a cane until it split, but he could not make himself heard above the din, except to those in his immediate vi- cinity. Mr. Ambush declared time and again that the mecting would be adjourned before Mr Bradshaw would be allowed to speak, but the latter seemed to revel in the commotion he had caused, and with thumbs thrust in the armkoles of his yest strutted up and down the platform in a triumphant manner. The tumult continued for fully twenty minutes, growing in intensity each moment until it reached a stage almost be- yond description. Seeing that he could not control the excited crowd Mr. Ambush stepped on the chair, waved his arms aloft : “If you'll keep quiet aw five minutes more.” It required some time for this statement to take effect, and at last order to a degree was restored. Mr. Bradshaw continued to speak and his words had a telling effect. However, at the end of five minutes he was promptly called down by the president and the for- mer disorder was repeated with renewed vigor. Seeing the state of affairs and ap- parently satisfied that the meeting was with him Mr.Bradshaw voluntarily left the plat- form, but cries of “Bradshaw!” “Brad- shaw!” continued and he returned. Presi- dent Ambush reiterated that the white can- didate would not be permitted to say an- other word and after pounding and shout- ing for order without success he peremp- torily adjourned the meeting in the midst of the chaotic state of affairs. The first the audience knew of this action was the turning off of the gas, ard then the crowd gradually dirpersed, the majority ten- dering Mr. Bradshaw an impromptu re- ception in the vestibule of the church. In the Twentieth District. The colored citizers of the twentieth dis- trict to the number of three score or more assembled in Geary'’s Hall, corner of New Jersey and Virginia avenues southeast, last night to indorse the candidacy of Messrs. Bailey and Gleeson. Geary’s Hall is a small, low-ceilinged room, and into it crowded the followers of these two leaders, packed like sardines in a box. Two gasoline burners and a couple of oil lamps illumed the place and a smal? stove in the corner furnished heat. The meeting was late in coming to order, as the neighborhood in that section of the city is one of magnificent distances, and the audience came from squares around across the commons and splashing through the muddy, unpaved streets around Buz- zard’s Point. =| Mr. Jacob Waters called the meeting to or- der, and Mr James Carter was made secre- tary. Some difficulty was experienced in ob- taining a sergeant-at-arms. The chairman would appoint som¢d gentleman, but the per- gon named would look around at the crowd, emile grimly and beg to bejexcused. This suspicion proved not to be well founded, Eowever, because there was no disorder and the meeting was conducted with a strong hand by the chairman. Speeches in favor of Bailey and Gleeson were made by Mr. Horner, Mr. Laws, Mr. Bowen, Mr. Jones, Mr. Dyson, Mr. Ray, Mr. Barker, Mr. Long and Mr. Batley. During the course of the evening Mr. Rob- ert Key, a rival candidate, dropped in, and, from the applause he received, seemed on the point of capturing the meeting. He made a short address and was given such an ovation that at its conclusion the other side rushed through their resolution of in- dorsement. for Bailey and Gleeson. Upon the adoption of the resolution the chairman, it was claimed, counted only the yeas, de- claring it adopted, whereat there was a storm of nays from the Key men, but a motion to adjourn was immediately carried and the meeting broke up. In the Twenty-First District. A small but very enthusiastic meeting of voters of the twenty-first district was held last evening in Mt. Sinai Church, cor- ner of 15th ard East Capitol streets. Mr. Frank Gaskins was called to the chair, and Mr. W. Jones was secretary. The speeches were all in favor of M. M. Holland for dele- gate to the St. Louis convention. .The speak- ers were Messrs. L. M. Saunders, R. 8. Quander and Rev. J. R. Johnson. The Thirteenth District Carson Men. A meeting of the Carson and Parker Club No. 2 of the thirteenth district was held last night at the Baptist mission, 911 Blag- den’s alley. Officers were elected as fol- lows: Chairman, George W. Ball; vice president, Samuel Harris; secretary, Charles M. Green; assistant secretary, J. E. Granner; treasurer, R. H. Parker; ser- geants-at-arms, Henry Smith, Lewis Banks and Frank Hawkins. John Jackson was the mascot of the evening. The meeting was called to order by George W. Ball, the chairman, who stated its objects and recommended the voters in the thirteenth district to cast their ballots for Col. Perry Carson. He introduced Mr. Rolston, the first speaker of the evening, who spoke at some length on the ability of the “old war veteran,” who was untir- ing in his advocacy of the cause of the negro. Capt. Perry, who next spoke, dis- cussed the various candidates, but when Cries of he mentioned the name of there was vociferous applause. The captain was followed by Arthur m, who also advocated the candidacy of Carson as dele- e to the convention, but as he was very foaress having attended earlier in the even- ing another polit “meeting, he did not speak to any length. Arthur Payne and a Mr. Strather were Seo Soeretaced, resins mate ones Carson, and urged members o! club to vote the Carson ticket.

At a meeting of the republicans of the ninth district last night arrangements were made for a mags meeting to be held at ‘Washington Cadets Armory next Monday evening, under the, auspices of Calvin Chase and a cottimittee consisting of Frank Hall, James Churchill and Amos Cart- wright. . —— A Bailey and Gleeson Club was organized at 814 E street southwest last night, with the following offeers: W. H. James, pres- ident; J. C. Lee, vice president; George R. Haywood, secretary; James Washing- ton, sergeant-at-arms. Executive: Samuel jones, chairman; Charles Page, James 'ayne, A. B. Jones, W. H.

A Carson meeting was held last night at 405.13th street, and was also addressed by Mr. Aaron Bradshaw, in his own behalf. ———_— THE VENEZUELAN COMMISSION. A Division of Duties Made—Request for Information, The Venezuelan boundary commission has named Mr. 8. Mallet-Prevost of New York as its secretary. Mr. Whitmore of Ithaca, N. Y., was selected as one of the stenogra- phers to be employed, and Walter Moul- throp of the District of Columbia was ap- pointed messenger. It was ordered that the rooms of the commission be kept open every day from 9 to 5 o’clock. To each commissioner has been allotted a particular line of inquiry, which he is ex- pected to report upon to his fellow-commis- sioners at intervals. For instance, Mr. White has been charged with the prepara- tion of what may be likened to an abstract of title; Mr. Gilman has undertaken the preparation of all the maps and charts re- quired, and other members have been call- ed.upon to collect’from the library of the Department of State and the library of Congress all of the documents and histor- ical maps and papers bearing upon the Venezuelan boundary question. The effort will be to have these inquiries proceed simultaneously and apace, and it is felt that by adopting this order much time will be saved. The commission has invited the govern- ments of Great Britain afd Venezuela to submit to it all of the evidence in their possession to further the work of the com- mission, and to be represented before it by their attorneys, The invitation goes in the shape of a letter from Judge Brewer to Secretary Olney. The letter in part is as follows: “I have the honor to state that the com- mission appointed by the President of the United States has, after careful considera- tion, conctuded to address you on the ques- tion of securing, so far as possible, the friendly co-operation and aid of the two rations which are directly interested in the now pending boundary differences. “It must have suggested itself to you, as it no doubt has to the President, that this commission bears: only a remote resem- blance to those.tribunals of an interna- tional character of which we have had sev- eral examplés in the past. They were con- stituted by or with-the consent of the dis- putants themselves, and were authorized by the parties immediately concerned to pronounce a final judgment. The questions at issue were pregented by the advocates of the various interests, upon whose dili- gence and skill the tribunal might safely rely for all the data and the like. It is scarcely necessary: to say that if either should deem it appropriate to designate an agent or attorney whose duty it would be to see that no such proofs were omitted or overlooked, the commission would be grate- ful for such evidence of good will and for the valuable results. which would be likely to follow therefrom. “Any act of either government in the direction here suggested might be accom- panied by an express reservation as to her claims, and should not be deemed to be an abandonment or impairment of any posi- tion heretofore expressed... In other words and in lawyers’ phrase, each might be will- ing to act the part of-an-amicus curioe, and to throw light upon difficult and complex questions of fact, which should be exam- ined as carefully as the magnitude of the subject demands. The purposes of the pending investigation are certainly hostile to none, nor can it be of advantage to any that the machinery devised by the govern- ment of the United States to secure the de- sired information should fail of its pur- pose. I have the honor to remain, your most obedient servant.” The Secretary’s reply was short and for- mal, merely an acknowledgment of the re- ceipt of the letter and a statement that he had caused copies of it to be sent to the British and Venezuelan governments. It cannot be said that the commission is con- fident of a favorable response from both parties to the boundary controversy, al- though the courteous terms in which the suggestion is couched lead to the hope that it will be accepted. ee CHANGES CONTEMPLATED. Members of the Democratic Central Committee to Retire. Several changes are impending in the compositicn of the central democratic com- mittee. Mr. M. I. Weller, representing the twenty-first district, has announced to his friends that he will resign his place on the central committee and that he will transfer his proxy to Mr. Frank P. Morgan. It is understood that Mr. Weller purpcses to re- tire from local politics. Mr. Frank P. Madigan, representing the eleventh district on the committee, has also announced a similar purpose of retiring from the committee'and withdrawing from active politics. It is understocd that he has transferred his proxy on the commit- tee to Mr. Campbell of the eleventh dis- trict. Megsra. William Dickson, John Boyle, Wm. Holmead and EB. L. Jordan are men- tioned as the likeliest .candidates for election as delegate to the Chicago conven- tion. Messrs. Norris and Davis, the dele- gates to the last democratic convention, are said to be out of the race, inasmuch as each of them is credited with having said he is not a candidate for re-election.

THE EVENING STAR, TUESDAY, ‘JANUARY’ 21, 1896-TWELVE PAGES. © TO ROW THE CADETS Baces Arranged With Two Wasb- WILL TAKE PLACE ON MAY 22 AND 30 Choynski Whips Jim Hall in Thir- teen Rounds. YALE WANTS A CONTEST ‘ The Naval Academy boat crew at An- napolis has arranged a race with the Co- lumbia Athletic Club of this city for May 22, and one with the Potomac Club for May 30. H. 8S. Kimball is captain and L. C. Pal- mer manager of the cadet crew. Kimball and Palmer have rowed four years on the Tavy crew. The cadets have several races under consideration with Washington and Baltimore crews. The cadets have ordered two eight-oared shells from Troy. Yale's ecach, Mr. Kinney, and Messrs. Beard and Hartwell, both old oarsmen, Lave been se- cured to coach the cadets, CHOYNSKI WHI HALL, The Australian Knocked Out After a Grent Recovery by the Californian. Joe Choynski of California knocked out James Hall of Australia in the thirteenth round of what was to have been a twenty- round bout at the Empire Athletic Club at Maspeth, L. 1, last night. Timothy Hurst was referee. A large crowd was present. Choynski was said to weigh 160 pounds, while Hail was at 160. Choyrski’s seconds were Tom O’Rourke, Charles (Kid) McCoy, Casper Leon and “Parson” Davies. Hall's were Samuel Fitz- patrick, Jack Fogarty, Benny Murphy and Timothy Scanlon. Choynski money was so plentiful that odds of 100 to 80 on the Californian could be had, but Hall’s friends were always ready with their cash. -Hall looked to be the more con- fident of the two. Both stripped in good condition. Hall had a decided advantage in height and reach. During the latter half of the fight Choyn- ski improved wonderfully, for he was on the verge of collapse at one time. In the thirteenth round Choynski jabbed two heavy lefts on Hall’s face and knocked him down again with a right on the jaw. When the Australian came up Choynski rained right and left-hand blows on face and ‘jaw, staggering him. Joe then landed a heavy left on Hall’s face, and as the lat- ter staggered the Californian let fly his right, landing on Hall’s jaw, knocking him dcwn and out after one minute and fifteen seconds of fighting in the unlucky thir- teenth, - When Referee Hurst counted Hall out and declared Choynski the winner, Joe ran over to help his beaten adversary to his feet. Hall was carried to his corner and later helped from the ringside. Yale and the Henley Regatta. It is hinted at Yale that the possibility of entering the Henley regatta is under con- sideration. Now, this is just opposed to what the student body want. They desire this excellent chance of paying up all old Scores by a victory over Cornell and Har- vard especially. To enter the Henley regatta the ex- coaches will have to make an entire change of front. They have always opposed a shorter race than four miles, saying it then becomes a mere spurt and no test of stamina and training. Then, too, the whole Yale stroke would have to be changed from a long, sharp swing to a short, quick dash at the water, but the coaching so far has been of a nature that the change could be made as easily as possible, and this strengthens the fear that such a race as the Henley is looked forward to by the coaches. To Play the Baltimores. The crack Baltimore whist four will this evening play the “Big Four” team of the Capital Bicycle Club, which has recently defeated the Hamilton ard Albany Club teams for the American whist trophy. The cup which is now in the possession of the Capitals goes to St. Louis at once, and the Capital team dissolves tomorrow. —.__ HARRISON’S MARRIAGE, His Children Are Opposed to His Union With Mrs. Dimmick. Special to the New York World. INDIANAPOLIS, January 20.—The mar- riage of Benjamin Harrison to Mrs. Dim- mick is not approved of by Mr. Harrison's family. The statement that Mrs. McKee will visit Indianapolis before the wedding is true, but she will not come to prepare a home for her father’s bride. She will visit friends here outside of her family, and will remove from her former home the last of her personal possessions. Friends here of Mrs. Benjamin McKee and Mr Russell Harrison and of the late Mrs. Benjamin Harrison are surprised and anroyed at the persistent reports from New York that the children of ex-President. Harrisor. are reconciled to his approaching marriage. Nothing could be further from the truth. As matters stand now the marriage of the ex-President will make a distinct and, Pos- sitly, permanent breach in his family, and separate him definitely from his children. Neither Mrs. McKee nor Russell Harrison are on speaking terms with their step- mother to be, and both have interposed an earnest, though «'gnified, opposition to the proposed marriage. This oppositic. arises, they insist, not from any dislike of their father marrying @ second time, but solely from a feeling that circumstances connected with the his- tery of the acquaintance which leads to the approaching marriage make the event an act of disrespect to the memory of their mcther. The true story of the acquaintance and courtship of Benjamin Harrison and Mary Dimmick, as told by one whose authority is as undeniable as would be that of Ben- jamin Harrison himself, is given below. Much of detail that would be interesting is suppressed because its publication would serve no good purpose, but, as a matter of justice to the children of the ex-Presideni, ard to fcrestall the flood of gossip and scandal that would naturally follow the open break in the family, the friends of Mrs. McKee and Mr. Harrison feel that a Piain, authoritative statement of the facts shculd be made at once. In the first place, it should be stated that Mrs. Dimmick’s character as a woman is in no way involved in this matter. That she has exercised over the President an influence which interfered with the domes- tic peace of the family and that he per- mitted and encouraged that influence is the most serious charge involved. The trouble really began before Harri- son’s election. During the excitement of the campaign in 1888, Mrs. Harrison, at the suggestion of her sister, Mrs. Scott- Lord, invited her niece, Mrs. Dimmick, to Indianapolis. Mrs.- Dimmick, it is said, was in very low spirits at that time, and the idea was that the life and excitement there would divert her mind and improve her health. Mrs. Dimmick at once began to take a very active part in the Harrison family affairs. Her influence over Gen. Harri- % cannot resist. '$14, $13, $12.50 cand $10 (COATS, ‘$7.63.

York Avenue. not become public was due to her own good sense and the efforts of her son and daughter, who were horrified at the pros- pect of a “White House scandal.” Matters were adjusted somehow, but there continued to be unpleasant friction unti) Mrs. Harrison’s final illness began. Mrs. Dimmick was installed by the Presi- dent as nurse. Between her and Mrs. Mc- Kee, who also lived at the White House, there was a state of armed neutrality un- til the death of Mrs. Harrison ended the strain. Mrs. Harrison had endeavored, during her illness, to bring about a pleasanter state of affairs in the family, and for a time her work seemed to be successful. It is understood that one basis of the compro- mise was that no such event as that about to take place would be considered. Mrs. Dimmick continued to live in the White House. After the President’s term ended, Mrs. McKee returned to Indianapo- lis to prepare her father’s home for his permanent residence. Mrs. Dimmick quick- son quickly became very strong. After.| ly appeared. As soon as she could without some n.onths and before the family went to Washington, Mrs. Ilarrison discussed with an intimate friend here the best way of getting Mrs. Dimmick out of the fam- ily. ‘When the family was settlel in the White House matters became constantly more difficult. Mrs. Dimmick gained stead- ily more ‘influence over the President in family matters. Mrs. Harrison suffered what she considered were indignities. Mrs. McKee and Russell Harrison sided with their mother. The President stubbornly insisted that they were foolishly and cause- lessly jealous. Mrs. Dimmick’s mother died and the re- strictions of the mourning period deprived her of outside companionship and threw her mere than ever into the company of the President. Finally Mrs. Dimmick was given to un- derstand, through a relative, that her continued residence in the White House was unwelcome to Mrs. Harrison. She appealed to the President and he refused to consent to her departure under such circumstances. “The quarrel between the President and Mrs. Harrison became critical. That it did attracting comment, Mrs. McKee left, and she and her husband have since made their home elsewhere. Last summer Mr. Harrison took a cottage in the Adirondacks, and asked Mrs. Mc- |.Keo to live with him there. She consented, ‘and Mrs. Dimmick promptly appeared as a guest. There was more armed neutrality, but no open break. Mr. Harrison, who for some time after his wife's death kept aloof from Mrs. Dim- mick’s influence, has recently been obvi- ously yielding to it again, and his children have realized for some time the imminence of the step he has announced that he is about to take. ‘They have not recognized Mrs. Dimmick in any wey, and when meeting her in so- ciety Mrs. McKee has avoided a greeting. ‘They still have hopes, it is said, that the match may be broken off. The wedding, it is announced, has been postponed until April instead of takiug place at once, as wished by Mr. Harrison. Th’ ponsment 1s believed to have been, inde een! ve le ina to his children’s wishes. deference It is understood that Mr. Harrison feels very the break in hts family 1ela- tons ‘would sacrifice much to avert it. He is especially fond of his other grandchildren, casion to be with them York. He insists, “Baby McKee” and and misses no oc- when he is in New ‘ however, that his chil- dren's opposition to his marriage is un- reasonable, and, strong in his affection tor his intended wife, will carry his plans through to the end. Mrs. McKee is known to have broken greatly in health recently, and her friends assert that her failing is due to worry over family troubles. The Hebrew Fair.
