JUSTICE SCOTT PRESIDES Tadge Kimball Leaves on His Annual Va- cation. Cases Tried and Sentences Inflicted by the Temporary Judge—Prison- ers in Different Lots. People who are in search of a cool and Pleasant summer resort usually give the Police Court the go-by, but there were a large number of people there this morning. They had nothing to say about it them- selves, as they were taken there by the Police. Not all of them objected, however, for Washington has a goodly number of residents who would rather spend their time in durance more or less vile than work for » living during the heated term. In the absence of Judge Kimball, Justice Scott presided over the District half of the court. There were forty-two prisoners in the dock, and this made a lively day’s work for “‘hizonner.” Among the first of the defendants to line up at the bar of justice were five colored girls, all about sixteen years of age. They were charged with disorderly conduct, and according to the testimony they are not very well-bred young ladies. One of them goes by the name of Mary Magdalene,while the darkest of the lot is named Blanche, which they all pronounced Blahnch. They all denied their guilt and blamed the whole affair on another girl, who was not arrested. “Judge,” said one of them, Mamie Gray by name, “that other gal black-eyed my name dreadful, but I never answered her nothing.”” Four of the girls were fined $1 each, and the fifth was sent home with some good advice from the judge. A quartet of female voices was raised in protest against this discrimination. “Judge,” said Blahnch, the youngest and blackest of them all, “you mustn't fine me or send me down, ‘cause I’ve got a little baby and there ain't nobody else to take care of it.” The judge looked at her incredulously, but evidently decided that for a fifteen- year-old girl to have a baby does not ex- cuse her for cursing or swearing. Called the Lint. Then Bailiff Cole went through the for- mality of reading the collateral list. Now, answer to your money,” he said, “or you'll forfeit your names.’ ‘Annie Dodson, Annie Dodson—” “Here,” answered a black-eyed Italian, @ push-cart man, who was arrested for ob- structing the street. “Your name's not Annle Dodson; step beck.” When the bailiff got through with his Est the mills of the gods went on grinding out justice in small chunks. Solomon McCoy was in a crap game last week. Four of the other players in that particular game have already been fined or sent down, but Sol. evaded arrest for sev- eral days. He was fined $10. Moses Barry is a pretty good sort of a colored fellow if he would only leave liquor alone. But he won't, and he gets into the Police Court so often that Judge Kimball sends him down for thirty days as a mat- ter of course. Judge Scott does not know him so well and let him off with a dollar fine for the same old offense. “Thank you, judge, yeronner; thank you kindly, sir.” This wes a great day for Bible names. After Mary Magdalene, Moses and Solo- mon came Malachi. Malachi Harris was his full name, and he was charged with “congregating and assembling.” He evidently did not know jest what it meant, but it sounded all right, so he pleaded guilty and was fined Fa) ‘ie McCall and James called the clerk of the court. Two little waifs of humanity, one yellow and one black, a Princeton combination, stepped up to the dock. Their heads could ardly be seen above the rail. The wit- nesses against them were two policemen and two farmers, and according to their testimony the boys are already confirmed criminals, and make a practice of hanging around the market to steal boxes and veg- etables from farmers’ wagons. The boys were too small to go to jail, so they were committed to the reform school. Mary Aikens pleaded not guilty to the charge of disorderly conduct in George- town, Saturday night. She was in two fights that evening, and the second landed her behind the bars. She had trouble with Annie Dodson and the judge fined each of them $5. Emma Johnson was up en the same charge. She acted like a crazy woman up at the Baltimore and Ohio station yester- ay morning, and tried to throw herself under the car wheels. She was examined by a doctor at the station house and he ventured the opinion that an excess of brandy and gin was all that troubled her. She was sober enough in court this morn- ing. “Judge,” she said, “I don’t call myself in no way a erazy woman. All that’s the matter with me is that I wanted to kill myself, and I'm going to do it as soon as I get a chance.” ‘What do you want to do that for?” "Cause the world don’t treat me right. I try to do right by the world, but I never get treated right myself.” Emma was sent down for a further hear- ing, in order that she might be further ex- amined ag to her mental condition. ——__ Fishing Was Poor. District Attorney A. A. Birney returned to the city this morning from a fishing ex- Fedition on the Elk river, West Virginia. Together with his brothers, Theo. W. and Dr. H. H. Birney of Philadelphia, and As- sistant Clerk Henry W. Hodges of the Court of Appeals and Messrs. D. S. Porter and Bowen, Mr. Birney left here the morn- ing of the 24th of last month. Reaching the Elk river they found the river five feet higher than usual. That night there was such a rainfall that the river rose twenty- nine feet higher, making fishing impo: ble. When the stream fell they floated down it to Charlesten for a hundred mies, but continued rain storms interfered con- stantly with the sport, and the catch really amounttd to nothing. Nevertheless, the party was a jovial one and the trip was greatly enjoyed. “APENTA” THE BEST NATURAL APERIENT WATER. noruea at oe UJ HUNYADI SPRINGS, Buda Pest, Hungary.

At 7:30 Saturday night a provisional company, thirty-five men, composed of h Battalion, . N. G., under the command of Lieut. Smallwood and Lieut. Mellach, marched out of the armory to Benning, D. C., where they went into a camp of a night and day. Arriving at Benning at 9:25, the guard was established over the camp, when the Am- bulance Corps, under the command ot Lieut. Fales, arrived and went into camp with the 5th Battalion. About morning it began to rain steadil: tated the men rolling themselves in rubber blankets to keep off the rain. Reveille was sounded at 5 in the morning, when all hands got up, washed and pre- pared for breakfast like old campaigners. Lieut. Mellach was officer of the day. At 8 o'clock Lieut. Smallwood took out the company and drilled in a field adjoining the camp, and Lieut. Fales of the Ambu- lance Corps drilled his men in the woods in the rear of the camp. A game of ball was played between the 5th Battalion and the Ambulance Corps, which resulted in fayor of the 5th Battal- fon. The score was 16 to 9. At 4 o'clock the “general” was sounded on the bugle and the camp was a thing of the past. ee THE COURTS. Equity Court No. 2—Judge Hagner. Barbour agt.

George Taylor, colored, was in the Police Court this morning on the charge of carry- ing concealed weapons. Policemen Harries and Arends were patrolling their beat in South Washington yesterday morning when they heard several pistol shots from near the river. A half hour Ist’ they heard six more shots from the ne:ghbor- hood of the Mary Washington wharf. On investigation they found Taylor on the wharf in the act of reloading his revolver. He was under the influence of liquor at the time of his arrest. Taylor admitted that he had the pistol, but claimed that he was the watchman on board the boat, and thought that he had the right to be armed. Under the circum- stances Judge Miller fined him only $50. Ss Cincinnati Manufactarers Assign. A heavy failure in carriage business occurred in Cincinnati, Ohio, Saturday. The Emerson and Fisher Company, man- ufacturers of buggies and carriages, at John and Findlay streets, assigned to Ed- wards, Richie and Lowe Emerson. The liebilities are placed at $390,000, and the assets at $450,000. The failure is attrib- uted to the weakness of firms in other cit- ies with which they had large dealings. THE NEW YORK SITUATION Republicans Much More Easy in Their Minds Than Last Week. Division of Work Settled—Dificulties in Democratic Ranks—Burke Cockran for Sound Money. The republicans are much easier in their minds this week than last about the situa- tion in New York. They have never been really anxious, but there were certain com- Plications that required delicate handling, and these, it is considered, have now been well adjusted. Mr. Hanna's visit has been @ success. He has met the leaders of the several factions, and come to a confessed gcod understanding with all of them. The Platt people, the Miller people, and the Mil- holland people, are all in line for the na- tional ticket, and all pledged for their best performances. Division of Work Complete. ‘The division of the work, east and west, is now complete. Mr. Hanna will visit be- tween the two headquarters, but is likely to spend far more time in Chicago than in New York. He knows the middle west bet- ter than he dves the east, and feels that he can be of more service there. This will leave New York headquarters practically in charge of Mr. Hobart and Mr. Quay, both of whom are entirely familiar with the eastern field, and both on friendly terms personally with Thomas C. Platt. Mr. Hobart will be in town almost daily, and Mr. Quay upon his return from Flor- ida, will settle down then for the campaign. Democrats Are Divided. The republicans are greatly encouraged by the condition of their opponents. The New York democrats are seriously divided, and show no sign of being able to get to- gether. The indorsement of the Chicago ticket by Tammany is reckoned merely as a machine performance. It does not enter into the merits of the question at all. Tam- many, it ed, would in the regula- tion way have ratified anything that might have been done at Chicago. The rank and file of that organization may always be re- lied upon to follow the party anywhere, to any extent. But the representative wage earners in the city and throughout the state—the men who earn their bread in the sweat of their faces rather than in the reg- ularity of their politics—are said to be either safely on the seund money side or else awaiting the discussion of the cam- paign. To the capture of this vote the re- publican effort will be addressed. Tammany Not United . But not even Tammany Is united. Some of the most prominent men in the Hall are opposed to the © ago ticket, and, what Is very important, Richard Croker is thought to be of the number. His attitude is at least in Goubt. The sound meney men are & him. A recent report represents preparing te return home before e time for holding the democratic state convention. If he comes he will be an in- fluential factor at that meeting, and Tam- many's work in November will be likely to show the effect of the side he takes and of the interest he manifest Burke Cockran’s But, in some things, a greater than Croker has already arrived, and has announced himself. This is Rourke Cockran, the most eloquent man Tammany Hall has ever known, and the most popular Irish orator in the country. Mr. Cockran, owing to dif- ferences between himself and Mr. Croker, has lost his power in Tammany Hall, but he retains it elsewhere, and is a great card on the stump throughout the east. He is for sound money, and the republicans be- lieve that he will be of great help in the campaign. He is not only an orator, but a very strong debater. He and Mr. Bryan measured swords in the House in the Fifty- second Congress on this very silver ques- tion, and the sound money men were de- lighted with the account Mr. Cockran gave himseif on that occasion. Why not match That would bring together an large as Daniel O'Connell used in Ireland, where the people were reckoned by the acre.

TONER, Burial in the Old Family Cemetery in Pennsylvania, The remains of Dr. Joseph M. Toner were buried at 1 o'clock yesterday from the resi- dence of his brother, James L. Toner, esq., at Derry, Westmoreland county, Pa. The burial was in the old family burial ground, two miles from Derry station, and almos: adjoining his old homestead, where his mother lived and died, and which has re- mained his property and that of his broth- er, by inheritance from her. He had many and devoted friends and reiatives in West- moreland and the adjacent counties, and his funeral, notwithstanding the impossi- bility of extended notice, was largely at- tended, several persons ‘having come for the purpose from Pittsburg, Greensburg and Altoona. Justice Morris of the Court of Appeals was | t. The religious ces in the quaint old churea adjoining the burial ground were impressive, out simple. —— RS FOR BRYAN. TAX SINGLE It is Claimed They Hold the Balance of Power in Delaware. or dence of The Evening Star. WILMINGTON, Del., August 2, 1896, The single taxers of Wilmington and neighboring towns held a ratification meet- ing at the open square In this city Satur- day night, and indorsed the nomination of Bryan and Sewall. ‘The meeting was called to order by Har- old Sudell of New Castle, secretary of the Single ‘fax Society of Delaware. G. F. Stevens, president of the Central Demo- cratic Club of Philadelphia, was the princi- pal speaker. Mr. Stevens !s the man who has been instrumental in the campaign which the single taxers are making against the town authorities of Dover. He said that like Henry George, the single taxers approved the platform of the Chicago con- vention, because they believed that it aim- ed to restore the government to the people and take it from the grasp of the seifish oliticians and capitalists. The single tax- ers would, he said, indorse Bryan because they knew he represented faithfully and would carry out unfalteringly what the platform of his party dictated. During his address he arraigned in bitter terms United States Senator George Gray, Willard Sauls- bury and the town authorities of Dover for taking part in a conspiracy which has led to the arrest and imprisonment of fifteen single taxers in Kent county jail, in an ef- fort to stifle free speech. Speeches were also made by William Horan, one of the single taxers arrested and recently pardoned by Gov. Watson; William M. Collingham, ex-secretary of the Americus Club of Camden, N.J.; H. V. Hetzel of Philadelphia, a delegate to the pepulist convention recently held in St. Leuis, and W. J. Wolf, ex-president of the Democratic Club of Brooklyn, N.Y. This ratification and indorsement of the nemirees of the Chicago convention by the single taxere of this city, it is claimed, practically means that the entire single tax vote will go to Bryan and Sewall, and with it the success of the democratic na- jonal ticket in Delaware will be assured. The democrats of the lower counties are strongly in favor of silver, as are a large number in New Castle county, and already Kent and Sussex democrats have indorsed Bryan and Sewall. The sirgle taxers claim 4,700 followers in Delaware, of which 1,200 are republicans. The single tax leaders openly declare that these republicans will desert McKinley for Bryan.
