Judge Cox today overruled the motion of the defendant in the divorce case of Lillian P. Bird against Henry R. Bird for leave to file his answer and take testimony. Mrs. Bird charged her husband with cruelty, and he, being of the impression that the charge could not be sustained, failed to file swer or submit testimony in opposi- A similar motion was overruled by » Cole several weeks ago, who held that Mr. Bird, having entered his appear- ance in the case, shousd have, in the period allowed him, filed an auswer.and submitted his evidence. That ruling Judge Cox today followed. Cuspldors Needed. To the Editor of The Evening Star: I wish to call the attention of the many readers of The Star to the fact that it is quite unsafe, especially for ladies, to pass in and out of the south end of the pension office. A few days ago my sister and her daughter on emerging from said doorway received @ saiute of almost a quart of to- bacco juice, which completely ruined her gloves, dress and parasol. If the pension office is without cuspidors a collection could be taken up and a present of a ves- sel be made to those who spit out of the windows, thus saving’ many persons from said juice on their clothes.

HAMILTON HORSE SHOW Fine Display of Blooded Stock This Week. The Blue Grass Counties of Loudoun and Fauquier to Hold Their Annual Exhibition. Lovers of gilt-edged horseflesh have a rare chance this week to see the best the blue grass counties of Fauquier and Lou- doun, under the velvet shadows of the Blue Ridge, can produce. At Hamilton, in Lou- doun county, Tuesday and Wednesday, the 15th and 16th, the annual exhibition of the Hamiltcn Horse and Colt Show Asso- ciation will be held. This is the heart of the region in which Mosby, with his fa- mous thoroughbreds, conducted guerrilla warfare. It has always been famous for good horses, and the blood of the best the world has known is still there. In that region the illustrious Planet, the thorough- bred, left a strong impress, and there, too, Matchless of Londsbero’, the champion hackney of the present’ day, began his American career and made his mark as the sire of high-class coach horses. Fau- quier is the home of the famous Diamond, which many a gentleman rider in Washing- ton, Baltimore, Philadelphia and New York has been ‘eager to possess. The fa- mous old horse himself, the property ot Willie Fletcher, will be in the show. Buy- ers from the large cities who formerly went to Kentucky now give a look at the Piedmont horses of Virginia and generally succeed in getting what they want. Some gcod judges of horses and of grazing re- sources suy the Virginia blue grass and pure spring water afford conditions for raising horses rivaling, if not surpassing, those of the best of Kentucky blue grass land. For size, beauty, action and, above all, for stamina, the Fauquier and Lou- doun animal is famous. Large Number of Entries. The entries close today. The number of horses to be shown promises to be large. Henry Fairfax will show Danesfort, his beautiful hackney, the son of Danegelt, up to his death, a year ago, the champion of the world. B. F. Nalle of Leesburg, an- other well-known hackney breeder, will show a fine string from Rokeby farm; Sen- ator Stewart, from his farr: at Farmwell, wili take a pretty string of trotting-bred stock; Wright and Richards of Hamilton will show their thoroughbred Kentucky horse, Whirlwind Chief, with a number of his colts, all large and notable specimens of the hunter class; Mr. John Duggan of Washington will ghow his fast mare Prin- cess Orloff: Pro: R. Martin of Colum- bian University, jose summer home is in Loudoun, will have a string of trotters there: Miss Chichester and Mr. Carter of Leesburg will have their stable of hunters and saddlers on the grounds; James Van Sickle will show his Dictator stalilon, Be- nont; the Dulaneys, father and son, will bring over from “Number Six"? and Weil- bourne a bunch of hackneys and hunters the Peach Brothers, who are old prize tak- ers, wiil show some good jumpers, and from Fauquier and Loudcun will come H. Rozier Dulaney, Robert Fletcher, Joshua Fletcher, Logan Gibson, Henry Simpson, Charles" Crenshaw, Bedford — Glasscock, Brooke Lawson, Herman Gibson and others who have splendid, old-fashioned Virginia horse farms and the choicest examples of blood, care and training. The show of pony stock will be large and interesting. Mr. Fairfax will show his pony stallion Cock Robin, and R. Hunter Dulaney will have quite a bunch of cobs and East Indian pony stock. Mr. Carter of Leesburg will also show some good Shet- lands. Horses will be exhibited in every form of use. Mr. Fairfax and Col. Dulaney always attend the colt shows with their hackney fours hitched to breaks, with a cock horse handy. Two four and six-horse heavy draft teams will be shown at their best in contests of pulling loads. Coach spans, tandems, teams, light draft and long dis- tance roadsters will be there in numbets. But it is in saddlers that the show will do its best. Here is where the young men show their enthusiasm. Every gait possible to teach a horse will be displayed, and the rider who can’t find what he wants will surely be hard to suit. Trotting and Running. In the trotting contests several noted horses have been entered. Senator Stewart will be on hand with his Orloff mare, and Prof. Martin of Columbian University has several fast ones ready for the bell. The tretting purses are liberal.

Boyd. The Washington ccrrespondents who en- Joyed the hospitality af the Pennsylvania Railroad Company in going to and return- ing from the democratic and republican national conventions have presented to Mr. George W. Boyd, the assistant general Passenger agent of the Penhsylvania com- pany, a novel token of their appreciation of his participation in the arrangements made by the company. Early in January, after the two great conventions had been called, Mr. Frank Thomson, first vice presi- dent of the Pennsylvania Railroad Com- Pary, extended an invitation, through the starding committee of press correspond- erts, to all working correspondents sta- tioned at Washington to accept the use of special trains to and from the conven- tors. Upon the acceptance of this invita- tion a train of seven cars, four sleeping cars, a dining car, an observation car and a combined buffet and baggage car, equip- ped in all respects like the Chicago limited, left Wastington on June § for St. Louis, cerrying about seventy-five correspond- ents, representing newspapers of both par- ties In the leading citles of the country. The same train brought the correspond- ents back from St. Louis and a week later carried them to the Chicago convention. During the session cf both conventions the train was held in readiness for the return of the newspaper men. Mr. George W. Boyd accompanied the correspondents on both trips as the per- sonal representative of Vice President Thomson and contributed to the comfort of the jocrneys made by the newspaper men. The correspondents upon their re- turn, desiring to present Mr. Boyd a me- mento of the trips, gave an order to a well-known Philadelphia jewelry firm to Prepare a watch charm to be worn with the fob. The charm is composed of gold and silver throughout, in distinct parts. A circular disk, on one side gold and on the reverse silver, swings In a frame, one-half of which fs gold and one-half silver. The gold side of the charm bears the inscrip- ticn, “St. Louis, June 16 (2), 1896," inclos- ing the monogram W. B.” The silver side is “inscribed “Chicago, July 7, 1896,” with the keystone of tne Pennsylvani ccmpany in the center bearing the mono- gram, “P. R. R.” The buckle for the silk guard is also one-half gcld and one-half silver. On the beveled edges of the goid and silver disks are the words “To Mr. George W. Boyd, from the Washington cor- respondent: — OUT AT HOLMEAD MANOR. Democrats Made Enthusinxtie by Stirring Silver Speeches. Mr. Wililam Holmead entertained the members of the Interstate Democratic As- sociation and a number of other demo- crats and silver men at his famous an- cestral home, Holmead Manor, Saturday night. The spacious grounds were pro- fusely decorated and illuminated with Japanese lanterns, and there were flags and bunting In all directions. The pré ence of a large number of ladies was no- ticeable. A meeting was organized, with Vice President Gall of the Interstate As- sociation in the chair, and speeches of a vigcrous character were made by sturdy champions in the cause of silver. Rev. Dr. Alexander Kent of the People’s Chureh delivered the first address, and declared that the existing monetary system of the country if persisted in would bring about social slavery. He was loudly ap- plauded for his arraignment of McKinley and Secretary Carlisle for their similar attitudes upon the currency question, and in conclusion declared that the enactment of legislation establishing the free coinage of silver at a ratio of 16 to 1 with gold would create a dernand for silver that would establish its actual parity with gold at that ratio. He was vigorous in the language he em- ployed in denouncing the wealthy classes, creating something of a sensation. Ex-Congressman S. S. Yoder of Ohio aroused enthusiasm by declaring Ohio would give 50,000 majority for Bryan. A short speech was made by Richard R. Beall, jr., and at its conclusion in reply to continued calls Mr. Holmead recounted in a humorous manner his experiences at the Chicago convention. The meeting adjocrned with cheers for Bryan and Holmead, and the visitors were much charmed by the hospitality that had been extended to them. > OXON HILL DEMOCRATS, They Form a Bryan and Sewall Club for Campaign Work. Headed by the Mount Pleasant Band, the Lakeland Democratic Ciub went to Oxon Hill, Ma., Saturday night and assisted in organizing a big Bryan and Sewall club. The officers elected were Joseph Matting- ly, president; Edward Dye, Wm. Yoe, J. H. Hungerford, Edward McVey, J. H. Gib- bons, J. M. Helskell and J. F. Westers, vice presidents; Frank L. English and Richard Dement, secretaries; S. G. Adams, treasurer, and J. L. Grimes'and J. D. De- ment, sergeunts-at-arms. Speeches were made by Judge W. F. Fieming of Ken- tucky, Mr. Charles James, Mr. J. M. Heis- kell and others. Much enthusiasm was shown in the proceedings. The club will have a pole raising September 24. —-.__ THE COURTS. - Equity Court No. 1—Judge Cox. Bird agt. Bird; motion for leave to file an- swer denied. Isemann agt.

Power, D. D. There was a large congrega- tion present and special music was ren- dered. A sermon appropriate to the occa- sion was delivered by the pastor, after which he received the congratulations of his congregation. The prosperous condition of the church in all its activities was demonstrated, the work of the past year was reviewed, and the mission work of the church touched upon. In the evening Dr. Power delivered a sermon upon the life of Dr. G. Brown Goode. Ancther anniversary was also celebrated yesterday—the thirty-second anniversary of the Zion Baptist Church, on F street southwest near 3d street. Services were held practically all day, and will be con- tinued throughout the week. A praise meet- ing was held at 6 o'clock in the morning. At 11 o'clock the pastor, Rev. W. J. How- ard, preached the sermon, celebrating also his tenth anniversary as the pastor of this church In the afternoon and again at night other sermons appropriate to the celebration were delivered. When this church was organized in 1864, its member- ship was limited to nine members. It now nunibers over two thousand members and occupies an imposing brick structure. The Sunday school has 1,000 scholars on ‘ts roll, and there are two Christian Endeavor so- cieties in the church, which also maintains a missicn in the northeast. Services were held yesterday, for the first time, in the new structure erected for the use of the congregation of the Grace Luth- eran Church, at 13th and Corcoran streets. Although the new annex is not in a com- pleted state, it was so far finished as to permit of its occupancy yesterday. Rev. J. E. A. Doermann, the pastor, preached an appropriate sermon. A delegation of the Federation of Labor attended divine service lasi evening in the First Methodist Protestant Church, corner of Sth street and Virginia avenue southeast, and listened to a sermon delivered specially for their benefit by Rev. Dr. George Q. Bacchus. Dr. Bacchus’ text was, “Is not this the carpenter's son?” and his theme was “The Dignity of Labor The congregation of Twelfth Street M. E. Church, of which Rev. W.G. Cassard is pas- tor, are about entering upon some extensive improvements to their church building. A Sunday school room is to be built on the side of the present building, connecting with the audience room Ly means of slid- ing doors. The cupola of the present struc- ture is to give place to one of more attrac- tive design, while the recess in the rear of the pulpit is to be made semi-oval and enlarged to accommodate the choir. In addition to these architectural changes, the building is to be painted outside, frescoed on the in- terior and refurnished throughout with new pews, chairs, carpet, gas fixtures, etc. It is expected to have the improvements com- pleted by November 15. RAILROAD RATE WAR President SpencefDanles Any Intention to ~ Crush tlie Seaboard Line, Action of the North Carolina Com- missioners — The dieorgia Injunc- tion Expectéd to Be Dissolved. President Spencer of the Southern Rail- way Company hag taken steps to deny and set at rest the oft-repeated report which has gained currency in many parts of the country that the Southern was anxious to crush the Seaboard Air Line out of exist- ence. In a letter to a personal friend in this city from one who is closely connected with Southern Railway Company's affairs in New York, Mr. Spencer authorized the statement to be made “that the Southern has never attempted to squeeze or In any way injure the Seaboard Air Line, with the view of purchasing it or for any other pur- pose. Efforts to have settled the present disas- trous war of rates between the Seaboard and the Southern, the Atlantic Coast Line, Norfolk and Western and some smaller lines are being made by those who are financially interested, but with what pros pects of success cannot as yet be fore- shadowed. It seems quite certain from the manner in which the railroad commissions of various southern states are taking hold of the mat- ter that if the companies themselves can- not agree upon a schedule that will secure reasonable returns to those who have in- vested money In the securities of the roads involved, the state commissions will re- quire that the roads shall not get the same fare for hauling freight and passengers within state lines as they have heretofore charged. Long and Short Haul Question. The railroad commission of North Caro- lina, which took up the hearing of alleged discrimination in these matters only on Saturday last, issued before adjourning an order stating that “It appeared that the lith section of the interstate commerce act, known as the long and short haul clause, is violated by et least one of the corpora- tions interested. ‘this commission has no jurisdiction to remedy this, but for each oftense reported will see that it is properly brought to the attention of the interstate commerce commission and ask for speedy action by it. It is ordered that all railroads Going business within North Carolina who Lave or may put in force cut rates to and from points in this state to and from points outside, shall so arrange their lccal freight tariffs that the same relative reduction shali be given to local business as has been cr may hereafter be given to through business. “It fs also orde: senger rate day of September, 186, 2 ed that the standard pas- shall be on and after the 24th st follo & cents a mil ‘ond clas: a mile, and that all percentag. granted to certain small corporations shall be readjusted by them in like proportion to cenform to this order, it being a reduction on passenger rates of one-fourth cent per mile for each c a The point ulsed that the law al- lowed ten days in which to take exceptions to the order. This was sustained, and the cemmissicn adjourned until September 22. Legal Talent at the Hearing. The Southern Railway Company was rep- resented at the hearing by Vice Presidents A. B. Andrews and W. H. Baldwin, jr., Colonel Henderson, assistant general coun- sel, and Mr. Fairfax Harrison, solicitor, all of Washington, D. C.; Mr. F. H. Busbee of Raleigh, state counsel; Me: J. H. Drake of Rickmond end J. 1. Munson of Raleigh, division freight agents; the Seaboard by Judge James C. McRae and Capt. W. H. Day, counsel, Raleigh; Mr, William Moncure, superintendent of the second di- vision, and Capt. William Smith of Ra- leigh; the Cape Fear and Yadkin Valley, which is in the hands of Gen. John Gill of Baltimore as receiver, by Mr. George M. Rose of Fayette’ 3 Mr J. W. Fry of Gree lager, and Mr. W. E ‘ayetteville, general freight agent. It is the tmpression fn well-informed rail- way circles that Judge Speer will reach the same conclusion as did Judge Stmon- ton in the matter of his injunction against the rallroa: and that after hearing argu- ment thereon, when it comes up for hear- ing on Monday next, will dissolve it. It is stated that the stockholders of the Seaboard Air Line have pooled their stock with President Hoffman for one year, and that during that time it cannot be soli except with the unanimous consent of the stockholders. There is only about $1,400,000 of it which could be easily gotten hold of ordinarily by persons who might wish to control the property, but now chis cannot be done. President Hoffman is expected to be in New York tomorrow to confer with people who are interested in the prop- erty. Go Fight the Pennsylvania. It is reported that the Seaboard Air Line has renewed its demand on the Pernsyl- vania to haul for the former a through car between New York and various Southern points, and has asked that the same privi- leges be granted to the first named as are given to the Southern Railway Company. It is further reported that the Pennsyl- vanla has refused to do either and that in consequence the Seaboard is preparing to fight the Pennsylvania. General Manager St. John of the fea- board is quoted as saying that reduced rates have come to stay, whether there is harmony or not. Rates, he says, have been too high, and that the 23 per cent reduc- tion establishes about a right scale needed by the south for its proper development. That is why, it is sald, he intends to urge the state railroad commission to compel the application of through rates to all local points. President Hoffman Talks, President Hoffman of the Seaboard re- turned to Baltimore Saturday evening from the south. In reference to the injunction issued by Judge Speer, Mr. Hoffman was quoted as sayin; “T have not yet carefully read the order. of the court, and until I do I do not wish to talk on that subject. The matter fs in the hands of the legal depart- ment of the company, and it will most like- ly be several days before a line of action is determined upon. The injunction will be obeyed by the Seaboard Air Line, but it is not impossible that modifications will be asked, as was done in the injunction order issued by Judge Simonton, and the order will be contested in court. “The cut rates have,” continued Mr. Hoff- man, “undoubtedly stimulated shipments, and the Seaboard Air Line has all it can handle. The rate war has not reduced our revenue, as our enemies profess to believe, Lut, on the contrary, has increased it. The statement of business for the month of July, when the rate war was inaugurated, compares as follows: 1895, gross earnings, $210,456.02; operating expenses, $182,586.95; net earnings, $36,869.07. 1896, gross earn- ings, $244,724.25; operating expenses, $196,- 236.27; net earnings, $48,428.08. The’ state- ment for August has not yet been fully made up, but I am told that the showing will be even better. than in July. “The Seaboard Air Line system for the year ended June 30, 1886, had a surplus of $158,076.52 after paying all charges and losses of every nature; and paying a divi- dend upon the common stock of the Dur- ham and Northern raitway, and preferred stocks of the Seaboard and Roanoke rail- road.” The Price of Coal Is sure to change.

SIXTIETH ANNIVERSARY, Celebration Saturday Night of the W. L.. Infantry Corps. ‘There was a large attendance Saturday evening at the Washington Light Infantry armory to witness and participate in the celebration in commemoration of the six- tieth anniversary of the organization of the corps.

The committee in charge of arrangements for the eleventh national encampment of the Union Veteran Legion met Saturday night at Willard’s Hotel. Col. L. P. Wright, the chairman, made a report on the number of encampments that would be present, among them being veterans from Phila- delphia, Buffalo, Springfield, 111.; Meadville, ; Mt. Vernon, Ohio, and Bradford, Pa ‘olonel, Wright called attention to the or- der issued by Gen. George C. James, na- tional commander, callimg the encampment for October 14, 15 and 16. Headquarters will be at the Riggs House, and the nation- al staff will report October 13. It is esti- mated 10,000 veterans will be here. ge eae Single Taxers’ Views. The single taxers do not believe that the establishment of even a perfect monetary system will relieve the people of this coun- try from their ills. They hold that the in- crease in land values going to the land- holder instead of the community is the cavse Of hard times, and the following res- olutions were accordingly adopted at a meeting of local single taxers last evening near the Rawlins statue at the avenue and 9th street: “Whereas, the United States has tad financial panics and ‘hard times’ alike un- der the gold standard, free silver coinage. high protective tariffs and low revenae teriffs—as have other nations likewise; and “Whereas these measures, being no’ gen- uine antidote for social ills, cannot per- manently remove them; and “Whereas quack remedies, by supplant- ing more efficient remedies, delay benefi- cent progress; therefore, he it “Resolved, That our choosing the lesser evil to avoid the greater is no indorsemént of either. “Resolved, That the way to freedom is through freedom’s ways—not through mul- uplying restrictions. “Resolved, That so long as the land speculator’s rising ground rent follows, consumes and exterminates all the profits of wealth-creating industry, permanent na- tional prosperity is impossible.” a Are Theater Admisssions Too Hight To the Editor of The Evening Star: In these times, when every commodity is purchasable at from 10 to 30 per cent less than for many years past, when all kinds of expenses and the general cost of living have been reduced to the minimum, it seems not in keeping with the order of the day that the public must pay the same extray- agant rates for admission to our theaters (with one exception) as of yore. It is a well-known fact that theatrical managers have been enabled to secure some of the best professional talent at reduced salaries; then, we ask, why not at least give the playgoer some little of the benefit of this reduction of expenses by a revision of the schedule of admissions? Last spring many houses closed their regular seascn earlier than usual on ac- ccunt of poor business. The “summer” sea- son played to full houses generally. Now, if the fame actors can act the same plays at the same houses in hot, uncomfortable weather, it is apparent they can do so at the same salary in cold, agreeable seasons, wken exertion is not hard. But the fault is not with the actor. An old member of the profession told me a few evenings ago that for the past three years he and hundreds of others in the line had had their salaries reduced each year by the Managers on account of poor business, until now they were getting but one-third the amount formerly paid, and this for good talent. The fact that playhouses draw large au- Giences in hot weather, when moderate rates of admission prevail, is the best argu- ment that a fair price charged for seats during the regular season would result in nightly crowded houses at all the theaters. L. Ss. M. + “Crittenton Mission. The work of the Florence Crittenton Mis- sion received an impetus yesterday after- noon in the mass meeting held in the First Congregatioaal Church under the auspices of the workers interested in this move ment. Mrs. Geo. H. La Fetra presiled, Rev. Dr. J. E. Gilbert read the Scripture lesson, Mr. Ballou sang as a. solo “Throw Out the Life Line,” and Maj. George A. Hilton made the address. His subject was “Fallen Women,” which he handied in a practical, outspoken manner. Before the meeting adjourned a resolution was unani- mously adopted expressing sympathy with the Armenian Christians, and pledging by prayer and financial support to stand by England in her determined effort to stop the massacres. a ae es ts es ee es ee a ed f ROYAL BAKING POWDER.

Splendid Tribute to the Memory of Beethoven and a Wreath Laid at the Tomb of Washington. The Beethoven Maennerchor Society of New York, 175 strong, is today the guest of the Washington Saengerbund. The New York minstrels reached here late yester- day afternoon over the Pennsylvania road, and were escorted to the Arlington Hotel. After dinner the Maennerchor was escorted to the Saengerbund’s club house, 314 C street northwest, for a “commers.” The Marine Band greeted the escort and guests with a stirring march as they entered the beautifully decorated hall, where tables were arranged for 400 people. The stage was tastefully decorated with the German and American national colors, and society banners, laurel wreaths and festoons. On the stage, resting on a pedestal draped with flags and ornamented with wreaths, was a large bust of Beethoven. Above hung the large legend: “Welcome, Beethoven!” _After music by the Marine Band, Presi- cent Frank Claudy of the Saengerbund re. cited an) original poem, welcoming the suests. President Ohmeis of the Macnner chor responded in a happy manner and con- cluded his remarks py presenting to the Saengerbund two beautiful steinkruege and a dozen small mugs of beautiful workman- ship. Simon Wolf, on the part of the Saen- kerbund, accepted the gift, and expressed the wish that the two societies might often use the beautiful mugs jointly. During the evening the Saengerbund and the Beethoven Maennerchor sang many seiections, and were heartily applauded by the audience. This morning the two societies and the Marine Band went to Mount Vernon, where the Beethoven Maennerchor will place a Wreath on the tomb of Washington, after which all will go to Marshall Hall for lunch, returning about 7 o'clock.
