Johnson for killing of Samuel Venie, which tcok place Thurs- Gay of last week, the testimony of one witness was to the effect that when the deputy sheriff who had arrested Johnson arrived on the spot next morning where the body of Venie had lain over night it lay on its back, and the knife with which the cutting was done lay on his gpen hand; but this was contradicted by the magis- trate and one or two other witnesses, who testified that the knife was so strongly clinched that a stick had to be used to Pry the hand open. The weight of evi- dence went to prove that though Johnson had 2 pistol he did not draw it from his Docket ull Venie had him Gown and had cut him severely in- several places: The verdict of the jury was not guilty, which was in accordance with the view entertain- ed by the public generally.

The leading citizens of Vienna, among them being Maycr Hine, Dr. Paul Rich- mond, H. C. Powell, Dr. B. W. Summy, E. C. Bouton, E. L. S. Bouton and others, are taking active steps to erect a new and commodious school byllding, which shall be a credit to the town. It is also intended that the present is the last year that there shail not be sufficient funds provided from private sources to supplement the appor- tionment from the state and county to keep the school open for not less than ten months of the year. Mrs. Bouton, mother of the Messrs. E. ©. and E, L. S. Bouton, died suddenly Sun- day evening while sitting in a chair at her home in Vienna. Mrs. Bouton had been a sufferer from asthma for a long time, but she was not regarded as in a serious con- dition, and it 1s believed her death was caused by a sudden attack of heart fail- ure. The funeral took place today, and the interment was made 2 the cemetery at Oakton. Mr. H. C.

Last Friday night the Brightwood Avenue Citizens’ Association held its regular month- ly meeting in the hall of Brightwood Hotel. It was a very lively meeting and the at- tendance was better than has been for sev- eral months. Among the many present were the following, all of whom took active part in the discussions and regular business: President W. V. Cox, Secretary Claude F. King, Messrs. H. M. Gilman, Theo. C. Fel- ter, Fred. Bex, Edward T. Bates, A. M. Har- risen, Geo. Woods, Thomas O’Brien, Otto Brodson, W. B. Nalley. After the reading of the minutes of the last meeting, Secretary King read several letters recelved from Maj. Moore of the metropolitan police force, the Senate and House committees on appropria- tions, Senator McMillan and the Commis- sioners. Most of these were in response to resolutions sent out by the association. Mr. Bates, chairman of the committee on fire ‘and police, told of a hearing given a com- mittee consisting of Mr. Cox, Dr. Chas. G. Stone and himself by the House committee on appropriations. Mr. Bates seemed to think that the association had no encourage- ment in the matter of the pending bill for an increase in the fire department. He said that Brightwood would more than likely be entirely left out of the appropriations. Pres- ident Cox also spoke of this hearing. Secre- tary King of the committee on streets, roads and bridges reported that he had called twice upon the Commissioners in regard to the sidewalk asked for by the association. He said that the Commissioners assured him that the work would be done within a short time, although it would be under the assessment plan. The walk is to be of brick and will run along Brightwood avenue from Genesee street to the post office, on the east side; then from the post office to the church, on the west side of the avenue. The asso- ciation expressed its pleasure in hearing of the settlement which has been reached by and between the Metropolitan and the Cap- ital Traction railroad companies in regard to the U street tracks between 7th and 9th streets northwest. Mr. Bates spoke of a con- versation he had had with the Mount Pleas- ant Association about the fire engine. It is supposed that if the Mount Pleasant engine house is given a steam fire engine that Brightwood will get their chemical engine. The matter of street extension was discuss- ed for some time, but no action was taken. The association is very much dissatisfied with the way this matter has been settled, or left entangled. 4 —.__ : MAIL BAG REPAIR SHOP. The Postmagter General Gives the Senate Some Information. The Postmaster General has replied to the Senate resolution of inquiry regarding the employes in the mail bag repair shop of the Post Office Department. His com- munication was laid before the Senate late yesterday afternoon by the Vice President. The Postmaster General states that the building occupied by the repair shop is well fitted for the comfort of the em- ployes. Of the contractors for the manu- facture of the mail sacks he says: “These contracts were awarded to the lowest bidder after public advertisement provided by law. While 1 have no official information on the subject, I am informed that these contractors employ convict labor in making the sacks. Under the existiag law I have no authority to prevent the employment of such labor. The statement of wages paid in the shop shows that there are a number of ma- chine operators, darners and hand sewers in the repair shop who receive less than #0 per month. ——_-o+______ SAFE CONDUCT FOR KNAPP. What Minister Terrell Ha Accom- Plished in the Missionary"s Cane. The State Department has received a cable message from United States Minister Terrell at Constantinople in reference to the case of the American missionary Knapp, who was arrested at Bitlis by the Turkish authorities on a charge of inciting rebellion, on the evidence of certain Ar- menians who are now in prison. Mr. Ter- rell says that he has secured a suspension of the proceedings against the missionary and a safe conduct for him whenever the mountains can be crossed to Constanti- nople, where the minister himself will ux- amine into the case. Mr. Knapp will bring with him three women and five children. When news of Knepp’s arrest came to Mr. Terrell, he demanded that he be either re- leased ‘or that he (Terrell) be permitted to try him, and this cablegram indicates that he has succeeded in his purpose of remov- ing the case from the Turkish officials. —____+-e._____ RUSSIA GIVEN NO ASSURANCE. Powers Have Not Consented to Her Occupation of Armenia. The under secretary of the foreign office, Mr. George N. Curzon, replying in the Brit- ish house of commons yesterday to ques- tions on the subject, sald the powers had not informed Russia that her occupation of Armenia would not be objected to. Such occupation, he added, without the consent of the sultan, would be in violation of the treaties of Paris and Berlin. Mr. Curzon also said that the statement of the Russian minister for foreign affairs, Prince Lobannoff-Rostovsky, that Russia was not willing to undertake to mainta:n order in Armenia was “spontaneous.” ——-ce+_____ DISCUSSED VENEZUELA, Ambassador Bayard Confers With Lord Salisbury. ‘The United States ambassador, Mr. Thom- nooas F.
