No Cases In the Polive Court—Local Notes of Interest to All From Down the River. Last Tuesday morning a well-dres: man walked into the tailoring establish- ment of Mr. James Jtoach, on King street, and ordered a suit of clothes, and stated that he would like t@ havé them by Fri¢ night at 9 o'clock. He left a’small ceposit at the time, and asked Mr. Roacii to de- liver the clothes at his boardiug house, on Upper King street, and he would make a final settlement when the clothes were de- livered. Last night Mr. Reach, at the time stated, proceeded to the boarding house with the clothes. The man came to the door and took the clothés, saying that he would try them on and if they fitted him properly he would pay for them. This was the last seen of the man, for as soon as he put on the clothes he left by the back way. Police headquarters were noufied, but no trace could be found of the man. Police Court. Mayor Thompson had no caces before him this morning for trial. At an extra session of court held last night Edward Williams and Wiiliain fined $6 each for 's from Mr. M.

In the repaving of Cameron street from Fairfax to Lee, which is now going on, the city engineer nas found it necessary, in order to make the curb line conform with that of other squares on Cameron street, to set out the western ends of the curb line about sixteen inches. When completed this street will be one of the prettiest in the city aad will be a great convenience to the business houses north of King street. Liquor Licenses Granted. In the corporation court yesterday liquor licenses were granted to T. J. Fannon and Cc. R, Davis. So far sixty-seven licenses have been granted, including nine malt liquor licenses, two wholesale liquor, two wholesale and retail and one wholesale malt liquor. Five persons who took out licenses last year have not applied for a renewal, but it is expected they will do so shortly.

Miller, Edward Cary and Frank D. Root, a _ma- jority of the directors of the New York Times Publication Company, Justice An- drews, in that city, yesterday appointed Alfred Ely receiver for the company and John H. Judge referee in proceedings brought by the same parties for a dissolu- tion. The petitioners state that the capital stock of the company is $1,250,000, and its indebtedness $316,710, cf which $46,710 is in open book account, $110,000 money loan- ed, and $160,00) upon debenture — notes. They further state that the company has been losing money and if allowed to con- tinue will lose its entire assets. Mr. Ely’s bond was fixed at $50,000 and the order to show cause was set down for August 3 before John H. Judge as referee. This action, says the New York World to day, was taken at the instance of the hold- ers of a majority of the stock. The minor- ity steckholders opposed the receivership and favored a consolidation with the New York Recorder. - THE DISTRICT DEMOCRATS Maybe They Will Not Have Six Votes at Chicago, Movement Against an Increased Rep- resentntion Appears to Be Growing Stronger. While everything is apparently quiet on the surface in democratic affairs in the District there {s a good deal of unrest lower down, and allis notas merry asa marriage bell among the elect—or the elected either, for the matter of that. The Star has from ime to time described the progress of the movement which has for its purpose the limitaticn of the representation from the District at the national convention in Chi- cago to two delegates, because of this de- sire to overcome the recommendation of the national democratic committee, made at its winter meeting at the Arlington, that the territories and the District of Columbia be entitled to six delegates each instead of two, as formerly, was inspired in Washing- ton by the combination which was formed at the beginning of the local camp: year, and which resulted in the ele Chicago delegates of Boyle, Morgan, Matting! leen, The first five were members of the combine, as it was called, and Mr. Killeen was elected by reasor of a series of com- pnstions entered into at the local conven- tion. tion as Holmead, and Kil- Influences at Work. With each recurring day it becomes more and more doubtful that all six of these gen- tlemen will be admitted to the Chicago con- vention. A very strong influence is being brought to bear upon the members of the national democratic committee to secure their aid individually in having the national convention disregard the recommendations they made collectitely to admit six dele- gates from the territori the District. They are being asked, it is said, to rep: sent to the delegations from their respec- live states to the Chicago convention that they voted for the proposition to increase the representation from the District and the territories under a misapprehension, and that they believe now that the change suggested would not be wise or proper at this time. It is said that the representation is also being made in sound money states that the District delegates are free silver advocates, while in free silver states tie: are being held up as gold bugs of the most shiny description. While it cannot be defin- itely learned whether there is any truth in the rumor that such representations of the firancial views of the delegates are being made, it is a fact that national democratic committcemen are being urged to take the action indicated above, and in many in- stances have indicated an ‘ntention to do 0. In the Interest of Mr. Norris. While it is probably being done without his consent, the friends of Mr. James L. Norris are managing the movement de- scribed in the interest of his retention upon the national democratic committee as the member from the District of Columbia. With only two delegates admitted from the District to Chicago it might be possible, they think, for Mr. Norris to be again named for that position, while if the six are given seats and votes in the body they know it is a settled fact that Mr. La’ rence Gardner will be named as the nation- al committeeman from the national capital. It Is pointed out by those who are in favor of Mr. Norris’ retaining his place on the nationat committee that he has always been a-loyal and devoted worker in the Party cau; and one of the most generous providers of “the sinews of war in national and state’ antpaigns, this being notably the case inthe last election in Maryland, where Mr. Norfis devoted almost his entire time to the interests of the democratic party there.
