In the debate in the Senate yesterday afterrcon on the legislative bill, Mr. George attacked the entire policy of giving high salaries, and showed that the governors and attorneys general of states received less by half than the bill proposed allowing federal district attorneys. Mr. Allen also criticised the provision al- lowing the Attorney General to designate the number of deputy marshals. He spoke against the “horde of office holders.” Under Buchanan, the government cost $50,000,000 annually, and now it cost $500,000,000. In that time the population had doubled, but the government expenditures had increased ten-fold. Officials were thrusting their hands into the treasury, and by hook and crook, mainly by crook, seeking to increase their salaries. The purpose of this pro- vision was to add to the offices controlled by an executive officer. Mr. Hoar responded warmly that the Sen- ate could not waste its time investigating into the details of the number of deputy marshals in each of the seventy-seven dis- tricts in the United States. If it did it would become a laughing stock. If the gov- ernment could not trust the Attorney Gen- eral with this duty, then the American gov- ernment had better shut up shop and apply to some populist club to carry on its affairs. After an extended debate, the salaries for district attorneys and marshals were agreed to as reported, with a few minor changes. The bill was still under consideration when the. Senate went into executive ses- sion, at 5:30. —_—_—__-e—______ PLANNING NEW RATTLE SHIPS, A Bonrd Appointed to Consider the Subject of Batteries. Because the naval appropriation bill now pending before the House, making provi- sions for the building of four battle ships, allows only ninety days for the preparation and issue of the advertisements for pro- posals, Secretary Herbert has taken si already to determine the features.of the new ships. To this end he has appointed a special board to deal with the question of the best character of main battery for each ship, undoubtedly the most important fea- ture of a battle ship. The board will con- sist of Rear Admiral John G. Walker, Com- medore R. L. Phythian, Capt. P. W. Cooper, Chief Engineer Edward Farmer and Constructor J. J. Woodward, with Lieut, S. A. Stanton as recorder. This board will meet at the Navy Department on the 3ist instant, and proceed at once to consider the installation of the main bat- teries, not only on the new ships to be au- thorized by Congress, but on the Kearsarge and Kentucky, as well. —_—_—__e___ Denied by the Turkish Minister. Mavroyeni Bey, the Turkish minister here, has made an emphatic denial of the report sent to the London Times from Con- stantinople that he and his first secretary were to be recalled. WORKING: IN» THE. SLUMS Labors to Save Fallen Women. Graphic Recital of Incidents in Their Experience by Brig. Gen. Perry and Staff Captain Cox. In the presence of an audience number- ing not less, it was estimated, than 1,500, for every part of the great auditorium was ‘packed w:th men and women, and compos- ed of persons who are as intelligent as can be found in any city in the Union,_ Mrs. Brigadier Perry and Staff Captain Cox, the former of New York, and both members of the Salvation Army, told last evening at Foundry M. E. Church, corner of 14th and G streets northwest, some of their thrilling experience in laboring among the slums and in the rescue homes of great cities. While the ladies were speaking there were at times but few in the room whose eyes were not tear-dimmed, and from the beginning to the close of each address the closest attention was paid to what each had to say, but when, after Brigadier Perry had explained that It was necessary, in order to properly continue the work, to have some promises of financial aid, and cards were distributed through the house for names by Mrs. H. B. F. Macfarland and other good women who are earnest in he cause, the responses were comparative- ly few. Mrs. Perry !s at the head of the Salvation Army rescue and slum work in America. She arrived from New York yesterday, and at 4 p.m. held a service at Foundry. Mrs. Perry has had a varied experience in dif- ferent countries, and a successful career in the army, and has the reputation of knowing the slum work thoroughly. Capt. Eva Dunlap, who became so well known as a fine singer when she was sta- tioned here, and Dr. Frederick Nice of New York, the famous violinist of the army and editor of the German War Cry, were also present, and took part in the ex- ercises. The Troubles im the Army. The meeting was opened with devotional exercises, conducted by Mr. William R. Woodward of the Auxiliary League of the Salvation Army in the District, and then Mrs. Perry made a few remarks, in which she referred very briefly and touchingly to the troubles which exist at this time in the Salvation Army. Not once was ELal- lington Booth referred to by name, but, said Mrs. Perry, “the Salvation Army work is going on just as it has been going on for years past. We shall do our work and leave the rest to God. “We left our homes and any prospects for the future any of us might have had, not for the sake of any man, but for the love of Christ and His cause, and we stand as a body of men and women who have given our lives to go after lost souls. The Salvation Army is going straight on. As to the property, that is all rignt. The cf- ficers, with one or two exceptions, are going along all right. Time will reveal all things. We have had heart-aching days, but we stand lion-hearted for the cause of God. “We cannot relate all the deiails of our work to the public; we do not think it Proper or necessary to do so, but I will say this, that we know the course pur- sued by the general was the only one that could be pursued.” Staff Captain Cox’s Remarks. Staff Captain Cox based her remarks on a selection from the Old Testament, “The spirit of the Lord is upon me; He has sent me to proclaim,” etc. After telling in earn- est and eloquent words how many of the women of the Salvation Army, moved by pity for erring women, began, years ago, the work of attempting to rescue the fallen, she said: “God's way is to do for every mai (and woman) what he or she needs. If they are hungry, give them a loaf of bread; if dirty, wash them; if cold, throw a blanket around them. Our greatest aim is to point men and women to the Lamb of God, that taketh away the sins of the world, but there is no use doing that while the person ts suf- fering; relieve their necessities first.” In illustrating what she meant by this, Staff Captain Cox said: “When one of my comrades and myself started out to do slum alley work in a large city, we went into one of the filthiest tenement houses in a court of one of the large cities. We knew when we started that we would probably get covered with vermin while in the house, and, though, when we got there, we could only get up the stairs by crawling on our hands and knees, we were not discouraged. “Upon arriving at the first landing we saw standing in the door of one of the rooms a big hearty woman, who, with her hands resting on her sides, viewed us with ap- parent contempt. The door was open, and we could see that the room had not been cleaned for months, while at the same time we heard a babe crying piteously within. ““May we come in and clean your room for you, or do something for your baby?’ we asked. “I am able to mind my own baby, and clean my own rooms when I want it done,’ she replied, very angrily. “We quite coincided with her that she ‘was abundantly able to do so. The trouble seemed to be that she had not the inclina- tion. However, we only said that we would call again, when the woman was not so busy. We then passed on up-stairs, where we cleaned up some of the rooms; in an- other soothed a baby; in another made a cup of tea for a sick man, and in others did such things as were needed. On our way down stairs we again met the woman above referred to, and were utterly astounded to have her say to us: “Say, if youse want to come in, youse can do 80.” “We went in. “May we sing to you soi simple song,’ we asked. “Will you let us sing “The at cious blood of Jesus, it washes white as snow?” You can easily learn that if you ‘want to.” “After we had sung those words a number of times we st re ‘Sing it again,’ said she. ‘I want to learn em. “We complied, and after singing them a number of times more again stopped, and asked the woman to tell us something of her history. “I have,’ said she, ‘lived in this court twenty years, and you are the first persons who have ever come to talk with me as you heave.’ ‘Ie it possible,’ we said, ‘that in twenty years you have not been visited by a Bible reader or a tract distributor? At the mention of the words ‘tract distributor,” se became very angry. ‘Yes,’ she said, ‘there was a tract distributor here once. A lady wearing a silk dress and with kid gloves on her hands, knocked one day at my door. I answered the knock, and she poked a tract at me. “Do you go -to church?” she asked. “No,” said I. “Then you will go to hell,” said she. “‘You can go there yourself,” said I, ‘and if you women have stopped to give’ me any tracts you can go there, too.’ “We assured her that we had no such in- tention, and she calmed down “ ‘May we pray with you?’ I asked. ‘Yes, if you make it short.’ We knelt down. I esked my comrade to offer prayer, and I put my arm around the poor woman’s neck, fearing that she would rise from her knees before the prayer was concluded. To my surprise, however, she did not, and at the conclusion of the prayer we started to leave. Just before we got to the foot of the stairs we again heard her voice, and, stopping to sce what she wanted, Were almost dumfounded to hear her say: ‘Look here, if youse want to come here egain you can do so, and I'll be glad to huve you come whenever you want to. I want the mister (her husband) to see you.’ ” Cept. Cox related several other incidents equally as interesting. Mrs. Perry’s Main Address. What might be termed Mrs. Brigadier Perry's address of the evening was the re- lation of some of the incidents connected with Rescue Homes as conducted by the Salvation Army. “The Salvation Army has,” she said, “to use different means to reach different peo- ple. I have been a salvationist for thirteen yeurs, and Staff sO Cox has been in the service longer. We saw, soon after we became engaged in the work, that if our efforts at saving fallen women were to be rewarded with success some place to take women, who want to forsake that sort of a life, must be provided. We realized thet much as we desired to benefit that class it would be inadvisable to take them to our homes, it would not be proper to do g0 in this day, and so the Rescue Home, in New York, was opened. That place is filled all the time with women who have for- saken their evil lives. We secure these wo- men by going two by two through the Emperor Charles IL, Accompanied by half the nobility of; Austria, went to the Carlsbad Springs! for the recovery of his health. Six? thousand six hundred horses, so the! town records say, were necessary to’ convey the company to the place. The virtues of the water is as great i at the present day as it was in the time of Charles II, and although the expense attached to a journey thither is not as great now as it was then, we are not all wealthy enough to un- dertake it. For such, the virtue of the Carlsbad Spring is extracted. The Carlsbad Sprudel Salt, obtained by evaporation, containing all the solid constituents of the water, can be obtained at every drug store. It is the very best remedy for catarrh of the stomach, constipation, liver and kidney troubles, gout, rheumatism, &c. Be sure to obtain the genuine imported article, which must bear the seal of the city of Carlsbad, and the signature of “EIS= NER & MENDELSON CO., Sole Agents, New ¥ork,” on every pack- age. Streets Into the saloons and dives, and any Place where we think we can find a wo- ™man who ts willing to forsake her evil ways, in the devil's noon-day, for what Gcd intended to be midnight in New York ors other large cities is the devil's noon- lay. “Our uniform protects us. Many times we would not be free from insults were jt not for our garb, which is known aud rea ognized everywhere.” Mrs. Perry related at great detail the op- erations of the Rescue, and gave a number of instances to show that much good is being accomplished through this means. “But,” said she, in closing her address with an earnest appeal for financial aid, “on account of the troubles in the Sal- vation Army or from some other cause some of those who were regular conir:b- utors to the cause of rescue work have stopped their donations, and others must be found to take their places.” Dr. Frederick Nice made a short speech and Capt. Eva Dunisp sang a soio. The meeting in aid of the same object, which was held at 4 p.m., was presided over by Mrs. H. B. F. Macfarland, who intro- duced Mrs. Perry. The address of the late ter was devoted to a recital of the troubles in the Salvation Army, which ied to U withdrawal of Balling:on Booth. Dr. Nice also spoke, giving his experience = length, and Capt. Eva Dunlap sang 2 solo. ——_—_ AFFAIRS IN ALEXANDRIA. Woodland Spoiled by Thieves—A Re porter Assaulted. Edward Dove and Kemp Young, colored, were tried before Justice Kirby at West End yesterday,charged with the larceny of wood from the tract of land near the semi- nary, in Fairfax county, belonging to Col. Francis L. Smith, 8. H. Lunt and W. F, Lambert. The body of woods in this tract of land was at one time very valuabie, but by constant pillaging has been rendered almost worthless., They were made to pay @ fine of $25 each and serve a sentence of three months each in jail. They were brought back to Alexandria and placed in the station house for safe keeping, and Constable William W€bster and Detective Beaty this morning took them to Fairfax Court House and turned them over to Sheriff Gordon. A Reporter Assaulted. The correspondent of The Star was last night assaulted by a man named Charies Cuvilier. In the police court yesterday morning his father, Samuel Cuvilier, was charged with having interfered with Officer James Hall in the discharge of his duties, and was dismissed by the mayor with a se- vere reprimand, it having been the first time he had been arrested. Cuvilier's name was published, with others, in the police re- port sent to The Star. Last night, about half-past 8 o'clock, Charles, alias “Buck,” Cuvilier, encountering The Star reporter, became very abusive, and struck The Star man, who immediately had him arrested. He left collateral for his appearance before the mayor this morning, and forteited it by not appearing. Refused to Support Her. Last night Mayor Thompson had before him a man named Charles R. Hdelin, charged by his wife with the non-support of herself and two small children. Mrs, Edelin, in her testimony, said she was willing if he would give her $10 a month to releare him from all claims. This Kue- lin refused to Jo and the mayor sent him to jail for ninety days, under the vagrant act. Police Court. Mayor Thompson this morning disposed of the following cases: Maria Thomas, colored, arrested by Officer Davis, charged with abusing him in the discharge of his duties, fined $2.50. Charles R. Edelin was charged with vagrancy in not supporting his wife and children, sent to jail for nine- ty days. James Davis, colored, arrested by. Oificer Ferguson, charged with the larceny of a lot of old iron from Mr. B. Wheat, fined $5. Charies, ali: “Buck” Cuv 3 arrested by Officer Ferguson, charged with assault on The Siar correspondent, forieit- ed his collateral. Notes. Rev. Dr. J. T. Williams, Mr. and Mrs. A, A. Warfield, Mr. and Mrs. George R. Hill and Miss Bettie Pollard have gone to Roanoke to attend the southern Methodist conference, which is in session there. The sloop Silver Spring, from the Gums shore, arrived here yesterday with a small cargo of fish, which were sent on to the northern markets. The fishermen say that there are but few shad and herring. ————— Work on Naval Vessels. The naval board on construction has do cided to recommend to the Secretary of the Navy the allowance to the Cramps of extentions of time of eighteen months in the case of the battle ship Iowa and twelve months in the case of the protected cruiser Brooklyn. The board has perfected the plans for the renovation of the cruiser Chicago, for which provision is made in the pending naval appropriation bill. The protective deck will be extended to cover the vitals of the ship clear from stem to_stern. The present battery of six-inch guns will give place to fourteen five-inch rapid-fire guns, and the engines and boil- ers will be removed, and in their place will be fitted machinery which will raise the nears of the ship from fifteen to eighteen. nots. —_—————-e-—_____ Subjects of Fraud Orders.
