Report on Building the House of Worship in This City—Other Matters Discussed. The final day of the seventy-sixth session of the general convention of the New Jeru- salem in the United States of America was preceded this morning by a meeting of the ministers’ council. The council was formally opened by Rev. William H. Schlif- fer, after which a number of reports were handed In. The question of an exchange of pulpits throughout the country was dis- cussed at some length, and the assignment of the annual address for the next session was made to Key. E. D, Daniels of Indian- apolls. The session of the general convention was then begun with worship, in which Rev. L. G. Hoeck led. There followed en ex- tended discussion on the project for New Church education and the matter of the endowment of the Urbana University. The question was finally referred to a commit- tee of twelve, which shall consist of six clergymen end six laymen. Building the House. The feature of the morning was the read- ing of un exhaustive report of the national |. committee for building the house of wor- ship in this clty. The report was submit- ted by Mr. William McGeorge, and describ- ed in detail the work of the committee and showed the full amount of the cost of the ground and building to be $105,834.01, of which amount $03,464.54 had been received by subscription, leaving a deficit of $2,- 422.21, Mr. McGeorge supplemented the report with a plea for further subscriptions, urg- ing those present to pledge themselves to pay a certain amount toward liquidating the indebtedness before leaving the city. Rev. Mr. Roeder made a motion that the convention had heard with nuch pleasure and interest the report of the national com- mittee on house of worship, and that by the adoption of the report it heartily in- dorsed the work of the committee and most cordially lends its support to such further efforts as may grow out of the line of work pursued to the present day; that it renders sincere thanks to the committee for its work and to the Washington Society for its adequate and ready co-operation in the accomplishment of a most important work of national interest to the whole body of New Chureh people of the United States. Before the molon was put to vote several addr in relation to the report w made A. F. Frost of Cambridy M aking in opposition thereto. Dur- ing his remarks Mr, Frost characterized the liturgical order of the Sixteenth Street Church as high Episcopalian. Other Matters. Officers are to be elected at the closing session this afternoon. Afier the adjourn- ment of the conventien there will be heid a meeting of the Woman's Round Table As- sociation, with addresses by Mr. C. C. Bon- ney of Chicago, the Rev. Julian K. Smyth and others.

The first skirmish over the Senate amend- ment to the naval appropriation bill reduc- ing the number of battle ships provided for in that Dill from four to two occurred in the Honse yesterday afternaon late, when Mr. Boutelle, chairman of the naval com- mittee, moved to non-concur in all the Senate amendments and request a confer- ence of the Senate. Mr. Boutelle criticised some of the Senators for what he claimed was their Inconsistency. He referred to the war scares of the past winter and the belli- cose resolutions introduced in the Senate and then sarcastically contrasted the war talk of some of the Senators with their votes to reduce the number of battle ships provided for in tho bill. Mr. Quigg (N. Y.) called Mr, Boutelle to onler for criticising members of the upper house, and wag sustained by the chair after some very live- ly sparring. Mr. Boutelle, however, ac- complished all he had intended, despite the chair’s ruling. Subsequently, Mr. Sayers of Texas moved to concur in the Senate amendment reducing the number of battle ships, but by consent the motion went over for action until today.

HONOR FOR COL. CARSON. A Parade and Barbecue Decided Upon by Hin Followers. A grand barbecue, preceded by a street parade, will take place Monday, June 1, in henor of Col. Perry Carson. The celebra- tien has been arranged under the auspices | of the Blaine Invincible Club, delegates from the various branches of which met last night for the purpose at Mt. Carmel Baptist Church, 4th and L streets. The Blaine Inyincible Club was organized by Col. Carson several years ago, when its namesake was a candidate for the presi- dency, but it becomes known as the Carson Invincible Club when the colonel is an espirant for the ballots of his friends. The colt.el himself presided at the meeting last night, and incidentally turned it into an enthusiastic demonstration in favor of Sen- ator Allison's candidacy for the presidency. Samuel Brown had come to the gathering well supplied with Allison buttons, which he distributed after making a rousing speech in favor of the nomination of the Iowan. Eugene Welbourn, J. M. Bell and others added their eloquence to the argu- ments in favor of Allison, and then the question of celebrating Col. Carson's elec- tion as a delegate to St. Louis came up. Col. Carson made a speech, in which he said he expected that the twenty-two elec- tion districts would turn out 3,000 men in the proposed parade, and suggested that ten official representatives from each dis- trict be selected. After a general discussion of the matter, a committee to make ar- rangements and recommend names for oth- er committees was appointed as follows Philip Sullivan, Parker Moten, Capt. J. H. Perry, W. A. Richardson, James Wilkins, ‘Theodore B. Gross, Benjamin Boyd, Dante Stlliards and Augustus Nelson. This committee will organize tomorrow night at Mt. Carmel Church to report at another meeting of the club to be held next Monday night at the same place. Before the meeting adjourned resolutions were passed addressed to Gen. J. 8. Clarkson, thanking him for his friendship to Col. Carson; to Mr. H. L. Cranford, for having given liberal employment to colored labor- ers, and to Contractor EB. Saxton, for hay- ing employed colored men on the work of laying the conduits on the various street railroad systems in Washington. —_——__ SHAD AND HERRING. The Height of the Season — Fish in Fine Condition. The season for shad and herring does not clese until the 10th of June and the fish of these varieties are still plentiful and cheap. While shad are still plentiful, the catch has fallen off considerably during the past week. The shad now on sale are as fine as they have been at any time this season. Salt water fish and crabs and clams are also coming in large shipments. Salt water trout, blue fish and croakers are large and in splendid condition, while Spanish mack- erel from the Chesapeake bay and the Po- tomac will come later in the month. There are plenty of fresh mackerel in the mar- kets now, but they are from northern waters. Hard crabs are selling at 25 cents a dozen, while soft crabs bring from 5) cents to $1 a dozen, according te size. Shad were selling this morning at from $10 to $14 a hundred, while herring sold as low as $2 to $3 a thousand. Epicures declare that shad are the best at this time, being breader across the back and containing larger and more delicious roes than obtained earller in the season. To Go to Tompkinsville. Admiral Bunce, commanding the north Atlantic squadron, has been given permis- sicn to change the headquarters of the squadron from Hampton Roads to Tomp- kinsville, Staten Island. The ships may not leave the roads immediately, however, be- cause some of them are under repairs at the adjacent Norfolk navy yard. Tompkinsville is the powder supply sta- tion of the navy, and from this place as a base the ships will make frequent trips to sea to drill and practice with their great guns and in fleet movements. — Big Demand for Beer Bottles. Plans had been made by many of the Jarge brewers in New York, who had es- tablished only a moderate sale for their output tn bottles, by which this branch was to be materially enlarged, thereby taking the beer direct from the breweries to the families. Orders for vast quantities of pint bottles were poured tn upon the manufacturers. Very much to the surprise cf the brewers, they reccived by return mail notices the effect that the stock f new bottles on hand was so small that orders could not be filled for months to come. One millionaire brewer of the upper it Bide, who gave an order for 2,000 gross of pint bottles a fortnight ago, vecelved 150 gross and advices that the re- mainder of the order could not be delivered before the latter part of next September. SIE AND MAGGIE, They Made » Call on Judge Kimball This Morning. Mrs. Ford, who is better known to the police under her maiden name, Jessie Mc- Coy, and Maggie McLean, both well-dress- ed, called upon Judge Kimball today to pay their respects as they had many times before, ard the court asked them for some information concerning their conduct. Jessie McCoy, who has been sent down so many times that she has ceased keeping @ record of her prisen life, married an old persioner several years ago, but her bet- ter-half, if he is her better-half, could not 1eform ber any more than she could reform him. At whatever conclusion he arrived after some months of married life he con- cluded to return to the Soldiers’ Home, and so Jessie is now a grass widow. Yesterday after Jessie had been doing the town and had become weary she stopped at the Police Court to rest herself and also to enjoy a pleasant chat with the clerks, She listened to the good advice of the clerks and then started out with the good intention of returning to her room and sleeping off the effects of what sit’ had drank, but she had remained in court so- ciety so long that her thirst was as bad aS it had Leen earlicr in the day. A few more drinks were taken and then Jessie met Policeman Sam. Ellis, who took advantzge of the opportunity to make a ccse, and arrested her. For once in her Ufetime Jessie admitted to Judge Kimball that she was drunk. She was very peni- tent and was willing to become a member of any anti-rum soctety if she could only get out. But Judge Kimball knew the fair di ferdant and understood that the only way to keep her sober was to keep her locked up. She had not been in court before for scme time, and for this reason a sentence of only ten days was imposed. Magaie Alno. When Mag; appeared she said she was on her way home to lead a new life, but her conduct last night, the court said, showed that she was on the wrong road. Precinct Detective Hartigan found her in compiny with a man last night and he arrested the woman, and, as is usually the case, let the man go. iz saw her solicit the man,” said the officer, “and when I spoke to them the man sald they were going over to Missouri avenue to have a good time. He said he had not seen her before.” «.Vitness characterized the woman as a ‘street walker,” and said she had been id to leave here, but had re- turned about six weeks ago. “TL went to Baltimore from, here,” she said, “but was called to Knoxville by the death of my brother, and I am now on my way home. Lawyer Moss argued that the woman cught not to be exiled. ‘She kas a tight to live here,” he said. ‘That is true,” added tne court, “if she lives within the bounds of the law.’ in conclusion the court said that strect walking on the beautiful streets of this city must be stopped, and sentenced Mag- gle to ninety days off thé farm. —— MUST BE BUSTAINED. ae New Rule Relating to the Police Force. 5 “I will not make the fitie much, but will make it enough to ‘sustain the officer.” This ts what Judge Kimball said in court this morning, when three:gentlemanly ap- pearlng young men had given testimony to show the innocence of Harry Hooper. The Policeman in the casé was.Officer Farquhar of Anacostia, and his principal complaint Was that some boys had stood on the side- Walk in front of thé Anacostia Masonic’ Temple and had imitiited the officer in call- ing “carriage.” Thig, was; not relished by the policeman and he concluded then and there to arrest somebody. Harry Hooper proved the victim, and, feeling that he was innocent of any ‘wrongdoing, he went to court this morning, The policeman who disliked what he had heard in the Party of young men appeared on the witness stand and related his story. “T didn't say ‘carriage,’ the young man said. “I was in front of the hall only two minutes before the policeman arrested me for nothing.” The two other young men appeared and gave similar testimony. They declared that Hooper had done nothing other than what he said he did. But the policeman who had made the arrest interrupted them as they gave thelr testimony and had to be told by the court to keep quiet. The evidence of the three young men against the policeman was of no avail, for, as already stated, Judge Kimball said he must sustain the officer and tmposed a fine of $2, $1 for each minute the young man said he was there. SEVERAL MILK CASES Police Bring More Dealers Into the Police Court. Dealer Edwards Escapes a Fine—A General Warning as to Stir- ring Milk. Five of the thirty-five warrants issued for alleged violations of the milk law were re- turned to Judge Kimball's court today and tried. As heretofore stated, these dealers were charged not with selling adulterated milk, but with failing to have skimmed milk cans marked with Gothic letters at least one inch in length. The most Inter- esting case tried today was that in which J. B. Elwards was the defendant. Prof. Hird had obtained a sample of mille from his place, pouring the milk from one can to another, uccording to the Babcock method, and had found that about 30 per cent of the cream or fat had been removed from the milk. “I deny that I had any skimmed milk in my store,” said the defendant. “I bought it for pure milk and sold it as such.” He explained that he got the milk from Mr. Quackenbush, whose dairy is in the county, and sold {t as he had purchased St. He did admit, however, that in selling the milk he had simply poured it from the can and had not stirred it. Mr. Quackenbush, the wholesale dealer, appeared and declared that the milk he had furnished was pure. It had not been skim- med, nor had it been watered. Prof. Hird was again questioned, and he said he thought the milk had not been in- tentionally skimmed, but had been robbed of its cream in the manner told by Mr. Ed- wards, of pouring It without any stirrin: Upon this point Judge Kimball mentioned an English decision, in which the court held that all purchasers are entitled to the same quality of milk. It is not right, the judee sald, that the first customers should get all the fat and the last ones get the poorest of skimmed milk. “A person may want good rich milk for his infant,” said the court, “and because he happens to be a late customer he gets milk that has been deprived of 1's fat, and the infant suffers. This is clearly not right. All customers are clearly entitled to the same qualit In conclusion the judge was about time the dealer milk. In taking Mr. Edwards’ personal bonds the judge announced that hereafter he will hold all dealers strictly to the law. Not So Lucky. Dairyman J. W. Greggs had another ex- cuse. He blamed the painter for not mark- ing the skimmed milk cans. “You know what is sald of the bottom- less pit,” the court said; “it is paved with gcod intentlo: “I know that,” tentions wei peinted me. You will have to pay the usual $5," the court said, “and I have no jection to your painter paying the fine. W. Chester Avi and Edward Jones assured the court that they had practiced no deception. They had simply failed to have their cans marked, and their failure cost them the usual amount. In the case of R. C. Hardell the defend- ant claimed that he did net know of the law until he saw it in The last week. “Then you are out just $ worth,” the court told him. “I'm very sorry, I need the $5, but pay.” J. L. Grubb and sented the last case - fined $ Judge Kimball said that because he imposed the lowest fines In these cases it is no assurance that he will not make the fines heavier in the futur: ee HELD HIM UP. aid he thought it knew kow to sell sald Mr. Gregg. “My in- good, but the painter disap- fine, ‘aid the defendant, “for I'm glad to have it to Dodd repre- Sunday School Moncy Taken From a Judge's Son, Walter Kimball, thirteen years old, son of Judge Kimball of the Police Court, was “held up" Sunday afternoon and robbed of his Sunday school money, 2 and 2 cents, two car tickets. The little Sunday school boy started from home during the after- noon to attend school at Eckington. He was given 2 cents as his contribution, and because of the long distance between his home and the school he was given two car tickets to use on the street car line. But Walter thought he would walk and save a car ticket, and so he proceeded on foot from Capitol Hill to Eckington. Three little colored boys who were certain that the well-dressed little boy on his way to church had some money proceeded to rob him in true western style. There being three against one, the judge’s son was powerless ii the matter, and when relieved of his cash and tickets he had to walk home. Bright and early yesterday the Judge was on hand at police headquarters to enter complaint against the youthful highway- men. The result was that Police: i Trumbo arrested two of them, Alfred Moore and Benjamin West. Because of their youth they were charged with petit larceny, and upon this charge. they were tried before Judge Miller today. Moore's brother was In court and upon a promise to take Alfred home and correct him the latter was released. A fine of $ or fifteen days was imposed on West. American Gucrd. All arrangements have ben completed by Mr. W. Watson Eldridge for the recep- tion of the American Guard of New York city, who are to make a pilgrimage to this city, leaving New York Friday afternoon, May 15, and arriving here at 7 p.m. The visitors, 200 in number, will be es- corted to the Hotel Regent by the Cor- coran Cadet Corps and the Canton Poto- mac Field Band. Saturday morning they will give an exhibition drill and dress pa- rade on the ellipge of the White Lot, and are to be tendered a reception by Presi- dent Cleveland at ) o'clock. They are scheduled to leave for home Sunday, May 17. In case of inclement weather the dress parade will tuke place either in Convention Hall or the armory of the Washington Light Infantry Corps. The guard, which consists of New York ‘ublic school pupils, will be accompanied by Col. H. H.
