Local Notes of General Interest to Residents and Visitors—In the Police Court. A large crowd assembled at the Opera House Saturday right to hear addresses from Capt. McCaul and other prominent republican orators. Mr. J. P. Agnew pre- sided and introduced the speakers. The stage was decorated with life-size portraits of the candidates on the national ticket, with a conspicuous motto, “Protection and Sound Money,” extended across the entire stage. The audience, which was a large one, was composed of the yeomen of Alex- andria, democrats and republicans. The speakers were Maj. E. O. Hine of Fairfax, H. E. Burton of New York and Capt. McCaul of Culpeper, Va. The argu- ments were all in favor of protection, and were ably presented from a republican standpoint. Respectful attention was given during the meeting, wh'ch lasted un- Ul 11 o'clock. A large Washington contin- gent was present and assisted in applaud- ing the striking points. Did a Good Business. Saturday night about 9 o'clock Officer Knight noticed two men on King street acting In a very suspicious manner. He fol- lowed them for a short distance, when he aw one of them go up to Mr. R.W. French's Look store window and take one of the percelain letters off. He arrested them and tcok them to the ion house. The mayor gave them a hearing this morning, at which it was developed that during the day, Sat- urday, they made the rounds of the city, soliciting work to put on such letters, say- ing that they would return on Menday and do the work. Wherever they secured work they would note the letters wanted and take them off of other windows. They had evidently operated quite extensively, for about two dozen of the letters were found in their possession when arrested. Most of the letters have been identified by the mer- chants. They were given thirty days each. Some four or five days ago, in a raid on tramps in this city, a man giving the name of Edward Myers was arrested, and, with the other “hobos,” was sent to the chain @ang, under the vagrant act. Jailkeeper McCuen noticed that Myers answered the cescription of a man by that name who had recently escaped from St. Elizabeth's Asy- jum, near Anacostia, D. C. He notified the asylum authorities, and Dr. Simpson came to this city and recognized Myers as the man wanted. Saturday afternoon two at- tendants from the asylum came after Mr. Myers. He was turned over to them and taken back to the institution. Police Court. Mayor Thompson this morning disposed of the following cases: Frederick Stevens and William Barrow, two tramps, arrested by Officer Knight; charge, defacing the prop- erty of Mr. R. W. French; fined $7 each, in default of which they go to jail for thirty days. Matilda Edmonds, colored; arrested by Officer Wilkerson; charge, disorderly con- duct; fined $5. Joseph Steurnagle; arrested by Officer Roberts; charge, assault on his wife; con- tinued until 7 o'clock tonight to obtain ad- ditional evidence. William Davis; arrested by Officer Sher- wood; charge, allowing a vicious dog to run at large, and biting James Coleman, colored; continued. Notes. There was an alarm of fire yesterday af- ternoon caused by the partial burning of the stable of Mr. Francis Carroll, on South Columbus street. The public schools of the city opened this morning. The classes will be arranged as the work of the session proceeds. A force of men were kept at work all day yesterday on the new sewer at the corner of King and St. Asaph streets. The sewer will soon be completed. Only one square remains before the connection is made. Mr. T. C. O'Neil and his daughter, Miss Maggie, have returned from a pleasant visit to Buena Vista Springs, Md. Mr. Chas. Janney was in the machine shop of Mr. Travers, on King street, Sat- urday, and but for the presence of mind of one of the employes, Mr. Wood, would have lost his arm, possibly his life. In walking or turning around near one of the machines while in operation his coat caught In the cog wheels, and he was be- ing rapidly drawn into the machine. Mr. Wood discovered it and instantly threw off the connecting belt, just in time to save Mr. Janney from serious injury. —— Transfers of Re: Estate. Wm. H. Lewis to Odell S.

Va. ing awoke AIMED AT THE CZAR Reported Discovery of a Deadly Plot by Dynamiters, FENIANS AND NIHILISTS ASSOCIATED Semi-Official Announcement as to Recent Arrests. WORK OF SCOTLAND YARD es (Copyright, 1896, by the Assoclated Press.) LONDON, September 14.—It is generally believed here that the police, by the arrest of Edward Bell at Glasgow Saturday; J. Wallace and John F. Kearney at Rotter- dam and P. J. P. Tynan (“‘No. 1”) at Bou- legre, France, have nipped a widespread dyramite plot in the bud. At Rotterdam in addition to arresting Wallace and Kearney, the police captured a number of infernal machines and a quantity of correspondence, which 1s said to incriminate a number of persons, and which may result in further arrests in the near future. Bell was arraigned in the central police ccurt today and after the usual formalities the prisoner was remanded until Wednes- doy. The alleged dynamiter, who seemed cool and unconcerned, was handcuffed while in court and guarded by two special- ly detailed policemen. Bell is zbout twenty-eight years of age, of medium build, slim, clean shaven and of sallow complexion. He wore a soft felt hat and was otherwise dressed as an American gentleman. The people of the hotel where Bell stop- ped say that he was always self-absorbed and paid little attention to his fellow guests. His peculiar manner made an unfavorable impression upon the proprie- tors of the hotel, but in spite of this they say they have no complaint to make re- garding bis behavio-, and the arrest of their guest was a surprise to them. he prisoner has little to say about his being taken into custody. The only in- formation which he has thus far vouch- safed is that he is not a British subject. Bell’s papers and other belongings are in the hands of the police, who, it is suld, have been shadowing him since his arrival at Glasgow. The police attach the utmost importance to the arrests made, and are observing the greatest reticence on the subject. It ap- Pears, however, that the police officials have been cognizant for some time past of the existence of a fresh dynamite con- spiracy, and there is no reason to doubt that the information in the possession of the Scotland Yard authorities is of the most serious character, although it is diffi- cult to obtain definite facts. The Globe, which has close relations with the government, intimates that the arrests were made on information received from one of the recently released Irish political prisoners. It is added that this man has also furnished the authorities wth valuable evidence in relation to the Clan- el, and it is further stated that the govern: ment recently released several prisoners so #s not to furnish an exact clue to the source of its information. One of the most notorious Fentan lead- ers, it is also said, arrived in Great Britain from the Unted Siates several months and the Globe at that time published article about his presence, pointing out tha there was a general revival of Fenianism in progress, AS a result of these disclosures, the Globe claims, the Fenian leader alluded to hastily returned to the United States. Incidentally, it was the Globe which first proclaimed the identity of the second man arrested at Rotterdam as being John F. arney of New York, who is charged with ing been concerned in blowing up the SOW works in 1892, a deed for which Terence McDermott and others are now serving sentences of imprisonment for life in Portland prison. Kearney escaped to New York, and it was sald at the time his escape was winked at by the higher authorities. It was fur- ther alleged that it was Kearney who, under the pretense of friendship, led Phe- lan into the trap when Short, the butcher, nearly stabbed Phelan of Kansas City to death in O'Donovan Rossa’s office, on Chambers street. Kearney may now be charged with the Glasgow outrage as well as with the par- ticipation in the alleged present movement. Arraignment of Tynan. A dispatch from Boulegne to the Asso- ciated Press says that Tynan was ar- raigned there this morning before the deputy police presecutor. The prozeedings were confined to furnishing evidence of the arrest and the establishment of the ident- ity of the prisoner, which the latter fully admitted. Two Scotland Yard detectives were present at these formalities and eventually the prisoner was remanded and taken to the town jail, while awaiting the arrival from London of the documents necessary to bring about his extradition. Tynan, who seems to have had no idea that he was shadowed by English detec- tives from the moment he landed in iu- rope, feels his position keenly. He told his captors he knew that capital punishment awaited him if he wis handed over to the representatives of the British government. It appears that Tynan during his con- tinental tour passed himself off as a queen’s messenger or royal courier, and claimed that Bell, who was traveling with him, was his secretary. Tynan asserted that they were en route to Copenhagen with an autograph letter from Queen Vic- toria to the czar. During his stay at Boulogne Tynan show- ed every evidence of being in possession of plenty of money and of having large funds to draw upon. He lived well, and his Staple beverage was champagne, according to one account of the affair, The Globe's advices from Boulogne say that Ty:..n's disgulse was almost. complete, He had siiaved off his beard and had other. wise changed his appearance. The Globe cerrespondent adds: “I knew him at Kings- tcwn in 1880, and saw him at New York in 184. He is now minus his whiskers and his mustache is horribly painted black. He is attired In a light tweed suit, distinctly loud, and, lke all Irishmen of his kind, it was is tendency to brag and conspire all which ted to his arrest. peas “It was at first thought that Tynan was connected with the going to Paris of anar- ckists who ccntemplate en uphcaval while the czar is in Paris.” Bell, further particulars show, also had plenty of money in his pockets when ar- rested, but no explosives were found in his room. At his hotel Bell described himself as an American touring, and he looked the part to perfection. Shadowing Bell. The police of Glasgow recelved a tele- gtam from Scotland Yard instructing them to follow Bell everywhere, and, in conse- quence, a close watch was set over him. Four hours later, Bell, the police report, received a telegram from Tynan, giving the latter's address and the address of the other men taken into custody. When Bell was arrested he reasserted that he was an American tourist. Among the papers found on Bell were documents relating to the three other men in the hands of the police on the charge which led to his arrest. Alleged Dynamite Plot. A Scotland Yard official, in an interview published in the Sun this afternoon, said that the authorities for many months have been aware that a number of the “most reckless and desperate dynamiters in the United States’ had been contemplating a raid on English centers, particularly on London. Therefore, the official added, vig- lance was redoubled, both in Great Britain and in America. However, several of the alleged conspirators succeeded in evading the detectives and reached different parts of Europe. They were, it 1s claimed, pro- vided with an abundance of money and lived luxuriously at hotels on the continent. They did not make much effort to disguise the character of their mission. Tynan, according to the Scotland Yard men, has been at Boulogne for more than a week, and was almost constantly drunk and boasting of the revenge he would wreak wher his plans were perfected. The Scotland Yard official referred to was unable to say whether the prisoners would be brought to England, as the offense of THE OFFICIAL WEATHER MAP. @ Partly Coudp © Cova. @ rain. @snom EXPLANATORY NOTE: Observations taken at 8 a.m., 75th meridian time.

When the Canr Should Arrive. A later dispatch from Glasgow to the Associated Press says that from informa- tien in the possession of the police of that city there is a strong suspicloa that the conspirators were planning an outbreak to cecur while the czar and czarina visited the queen at Balmoral It is added that all the suspects are known to have pur- chased materials for the manufacture of bombs. Bell is also alleged to have been drinking heavily. He is reported to be mest nervous now, and to be constantly calling for whisky. He is being attended by a physician. A dispatch to the Assoctated Press from Antwerp states that two Irish Fenians, seid to be naturalized American citizens, arrived there three weeks ago and rented e in the sudurb of Kerchem. Satur- the dispatch continues, the English ves who had heen watching these since their arrival at Antwerp, their departure from the United States having been made known to the British authori- ise surrounded by Rel- when the building was was found that its occupants were gone. oratory, however, was discovered, fitted for the appliances and for the manufacture of bombs and fully The dispatch also inttmates that one of these men has already served a ierm of ten years imprisonment for contplicity in dynamite outrages. 5 ‘The Scotland Yard authorities be'ieve tha verp dis- patch are the two persons arres terdam, and, incidentally, it leged that the men are Kearney and Haine: Not Fenians, but Anarchists. Dispatches received by the Associated Press from Brussels today say that infor- muatton obtained there from reliable sources indicates that the dynamiters whose lab- oratory was discovered at Antwerp were not Fe jans, Lut anarchists, whose aim was directed ezainst the czar, and it is known that the police of Antwerp were in- formed by the Scotland Yard authorities that a plot as in preparation to attempt to assassinate the ezar in London; hence. the discovery of the dynamite bomb labora- tery at Antwerp. Many bombs, it appears, had already been manufactured, and the police believe that one of the conspirators, wha is believed to have fied to Breslau, has taken several infernal machines with him. * A later dispatch from Rotterdam to the Associated Press reports that the men ar- rested there were in bed when detectives entered their room. Several infernal ma- clines were found in thir possession, to- gether with a quantity of correspondence in cipher, a key to which having been discov- ered, the correspondence was read, and is said to have been plans for dynamite out- rages, including an attempt on the life of Queen Victoria. The Plot Against the Canr. A semi-official announcement upon the subject of the recent arrests of alleged dynamite consplators was issued this after- noon. It says: “There has been within the full knowledge of the Scotland Yard offl- cials for some time past a gang of des- peradoes busily engaged in America in pre- paring the ramifications for an extensive and diabolical plot to perpetrate a dyna- mite outrage in this country and estab- lish a reign of terror. “Chief Inspector Melville, who has been so prominent in tracing and arresting Fenians, has been the head of the Scotland Yard arrangements for checkmating the present conspirators. Gradually and quiet- ly a complete network was drawn round the plotters, and the fact belng known that they were in intimate communica- tion with prominent Russian nihilists In the United States enabled the police to pursue, investigate and discover on what is believed to be absolute evidence, that one of the most recent developments of the scheme aimed at an outrage on the czar upon the occasion of his visit to Eng- land. The prime movers were Fenians in America, and when the plot had been carried as far as possible there Tyran and the other chief agents were dispa.ched to Europe to consummate the designs adopted. Every precaution was taken In shipping them separately and, by different routes. The emissaries of Scotland Yard, however, dogged their every moment. —$=4— 0 A Successful ‘Opening. If crowds betoken pgpularfty, Saks & Co, are immensely pgpular, merchants. Nearly every lady in ;Washington must have accepted their {nvitation, publish- ed in The Star of Satirday,for when a reporter called at their Store ‘at 11 o'clock goday there wasn’t gtanding room on their spacious second @oor,:.;where they were dedicating their new ladies,’ misses’ and children’s cloak, suit, wraf and fur de- partment. It ie Store Would be a mpre comprehensive name for it, because it 4s as big as an or- dinary store, with garments enough dis- played to fill one. It bears out the Saks reputation for doing well whatever is un- dertaken. Mr. Isadore Saks, the resident partner, said to a Star man: “We have felt, for a long time past, that there was room here for a cloak and suit department conducted on the same lines as those in the larger metropolitan stores, and from the interest shown today by the ladies of Washington, I don’t think we have made any mistake. The first thing we did was to get a compe- tent man to take charge of It. The next, to tell him to spare no expense to fit up the most convenient parlors possible, and fill them with the finest cloak and suit stock that will be shown in America. That has been successfully accomplished. The ven- ture is launched.” Thc opening will continue throughout to- morrow, and tomorrow night from 8 to 10 o'clock, and the public will be given an op- portunity to inspect the whole store, every department being stocked and ready for the fall season’s business, is now at Rotterdam and not Wallace. appa- | 10 I CHA CITY ITEMS.

When the work is finished it will be possible for persons to make the trip afoot from 18th and U streets to the Zoo without trespa: ing upon the roadway sacred to bicy: carriages anl other vehicles. An appro- Priation of $10,000 is available for the work in progress, and the sidewalk will probably be laid before the snow ies. The work is somewhat ex sive, Inasmuch as it in- volves considerable grading to open the avenue to the desired width, in doing which high hills have to be leveled and Tavines filled in. It is proposed to extend the sidewalk still further out Connecticut avenue beyond the Zoo entrance as soon as the necessary funds can be procured. SAPENTA 99 THE BEST NATURAL APERIENT WATER. sortea at oe UJ HUNYADI SPRINGS, Buda Pest, Hungary. Considering the nature of the Hungarian Bitter Water Springs, it must obviously be desirable for the medical profession and the public to be assured authoritatively that the working of these Springs is carried on in a scientific manner, and not merely on commercial lines, and with this view the Uj Hunyadi Springs, from which “Apenta” Wa- ter is drawn, are placed under the absolute control of the Roya!

MANY CONFERENCES They Will Take Place During Chair- man Jones’ Visit. SILVER LOOMING UP IN THE EAST He Thinks Bryan Will Carry New York and Pennsylvania. ALSO OHIO AND IOWA ee Until Chairman Jones of the democratic national committee leaves here tomorrow afternoon for Chicago there will be many important conferences. They have already begun, and will continue without interrup- tion. The unlooked-for arrival of Sena- tors Teller and Dubois is not without sig- nificance. Tne conference yesterday with Senator Gorman was not without signifi- cance, and the conference Senator Jones will have with Chairman Butler of the populist national committee will not be without significance. Altogether, there is a good deal of motion in the democratic machine about now. The Southern Situatio The conference between Senators Jones and Butler will have reference to the gen- eral political situation, but the situation in the south will receive particular attention at the hands of these managers—not that they regard the situation as alarming, but that there are phases of it which must be attended to, so that no doubt will be left of the south remaining solid for the silver nominees. The situation which they will talk about is that of fusion in several of the southern states, Senator Butler is not as sanguine about several states, unle: fusion is satisfactorily arranged, as might be thought. He has ideas about the dan- ger in his own state, in Alabama, Tenne: see and Florida, which he does not give out in newspaper interviews. He will probably give the democratic chairman some of these ideas, and they will exchange suggestions as to the best thing to be done. They Must Do Something. It 1s understood to have been the policy of Chairman Jones not to mingle im the matter of fusion, and to leave it entirely t» the state committees to arrange. This has worked all right in some places, but not in the south. He has come to realize that he must take a hand in the question, jist like Senator Butler is doing. Fusion will not be accomplished unless he does so. He will talk with Senator Butler about the states where he will have to take a hand, and they will no doubt part with a perfect understanding of what is to be done. The Chairman's Good Humor. Chairman Jones went up to democratic headquarters about 11 o'clock this morn- ing for a talk with Chairman Faulkner, who, at that time, had not got in from his West Virginia home. Before the Senator struck the front door of the democratic home he was taken in tow by a half dozen newspaper men. He invited them to a room and the fun began. The Senator appeared to be in good humor, and he neatly parried all questions which he did not care to answer. The $ xpressed himself as well pleased the general outlook, and thought there was no doubt about Bryan’s election, but the inquisitive newspaper men wanted him to : They began to pump him about New York. ‘Oh, we ure going to carry New York,” id the national chairman. “The conven- tion at Saratoga will arrange for an activ committee, which will carry on_the cam- paign with energy and vigor. What has been done so far has been without organ- ization, but from now on there will be an organized fight on both sides, and we will win. The conditions there are favorable, and, with a wise selection in managers, there is nothing about which the democrats should despai x “That dcesn’t mean whether Senator H! supports the ticket or not?’ put in a re- porter. “Mr. Hill is a democrat,” was the brief answer that was returned. The Maine Election. The Senator commented on the Maine election. “Up to a few months ago,” he said, “there was scarcely any silver senti- ment in the state, but the growth there is as much as any reasonable man could ex- pect. As there was no hope to revolution- ize the state, if the democratic party suc- ceeds in casting anything like an ordinary vote it will be marvelous. It will indicate a great change in the sentiment in the east.” The Senator proceeded to say that the silver sentiment is developing fast in Massachusetts. “The campaign is now ex- clly where we hoped it would be,” ne said. “The south and west are solid, and the east Is looming up.” In the Middle West. The Senator said that the same authority which is claiming the middle west as cer- tainly republican is also claiming Texas, and he laughed. “All the middle western states are in fine condition,” said the Sen- ator, and he asserted that Ohio and Iowa would vote for Bryan. “Could you tell us what you and Senator Gorman talked about?” somebody asked. “Oh, yes, I could tell you,” with a great deal of emphasis on the “could. The Senator again dented a story that Treasurer St. John was to be removed, and added that Mr. St. John was a valuable man in the democratic campaign. As to West Virg! Gen. ©. C. Watts, democratic nominee for governor of West Virginia, was at demo- cratic headquarters today, accompanied by J. E. Chilton, one of the democrailc man- agers and orators of that state. General Watts talked with a Star re- pcrter about the situation in West Virginia. He has been campaigning for some time, frequently speaking twice a day. “I find an unusual degree of interest among the farmers of the state,” Gen. Watts said. “I have talked to hundreds of them. I try to discuss the issues from a non-partisan standpoint, and to put the matter plainly and honestly to my audiences. The con- sequence is that the people listen. Irre- spective of party they want to know about the issues of the day, and are seeking light. You may talk for hours to an audience, and when you finish you will find them as attentive’ as the sworn jurors In an im- portant trial. A number of republicans are joiring our ranks. The laboring men are solidly with us, and the majority of the farmers are now with us.” General Watts says that the republicans are making @ hard canvass of the state. He says that all his appointments are pub- lic, wrile his opponents are evidently “con- ducting a still hunt.” —_—_——_-e—____ Pensions Allowed. Mary.and—Original, Frank S.
