Raeaan a ALEXANDRIA AFFAIRS A Largely Attended Sound Money Demo- cratic Meeting Held Last Night. Speeches by Local Business Men and Ex-Gov. Cameron—Other Mat- ters of Interest. The mass meeting of the sound money democrats at the Opera House last night was not the least enthusiastic that has been held by the various parties during this campaign by long odds. Some of Alexan- dria’s most prominent ¢itizens who are advocates of the geld standard occupied seats on the stage, and many of them could be seen in the audience. “Mr. Samuel G. Brent opened the meeting with remarks brief and to the point. He'said that as democrats they had assembled to indorse the democratic principles taught by Thomas Jefferson. (Applausé.) The plat- form of true democracy was so wide that any reputable citizen could stand on it. Mr. Brent introduced Mr. Géorge R. Hill, president of the George’ R: Hill cake, cragker and candy factory;iwho, after re- ferring to the new and portentous ques- ticn introduced into the catipaign and the fact that business men aré being forced into the arena of polities,*(feeling, doubt- less, that they should come’ to! the front and openly s‘and for those principles which seem to them to be best for all the people, regardless of the party,whipe,,said: “Be not deceived, my friends, by the spe- cious talk of the silver-tongued orator about cheap money’ and plentifwl money, and all that sort of thing. Involved in 16 to 1 silver and:the Chicago platform are very serious questicns relating to national credit; to individual credit; to the natural and healthy fe of our agricultural, in- dustrial and commercial interests; to law and order, and to the very existence of our present beneficent form of govern- ment; that in a crisis like the present every man should be up ard lend his aid against the suppression of the Bryan democracy instituted at Chicago.” Ex-Governor Cameron said. “I am here as a democrat to speak to democrats. The only safe rule to be ap- plied to metallic values is that instituted by Thomas Jefferson, who said that ‘legal ratio had nothing to do with coinage, but that it must be governed by commercial ratio.””” Gov. Cameron discussed the sil- ver craze at length and spoke for an hour or more. His remarks were well ap- plauded, though he was frequently inter- rupted by those who had evidently come for the purpose of breaking up the meet- ing, but who were unsuccessful. Both the speakers announced that they would vote for Palmer and Buckner, whom they praised in the highest possible manner, and they also stated that they were in the fight to beat Wm. J. Bryan and the patch-quilt platform work up at Chicago. Im the County Court. In the county court yesterday Judge Chi- chester granted a new trial to Grant Smith, colored, charged with the killing of John Jchnson at the Virginia Blue base ball club house, February last, on the ground that the prosecuting attorney had failed to prove a corpus delecti, and on the further ground that a continuance of the case should have been granted when asked by the defense, owing to briefness of time al- lowed for preparation. Smith refused to accept a compromise of fifteen years in the penitentiary for murder in the second de- gree, advised by his counsel, preferring to take his chances at a new trial. The pre- vious trial, aw stated in The Star, resulted in a verdict of murder in the first degree. Mr. Stevyart’s Funeral. As stated in The Star yesterday, the funeral of the late W. D.

Excise Board Considering the Ques- tion—Trying to Get His Name Om the Application, Raougansessunenawakiiaah There promises to be a hot fight over the liquor Ncense application of George F. Kozel, proprietor of Kozel’s Garden, 1825 to 1827 14th street northwest. The Anti-Saloon Leagu2, through its attorney, A. E. Shoe- maker, has entered a protest in the case, setting forth that the records show that Kozel was licensed for the numbers 1825 and 1827, and since the issuance of that license he has removed the building at No. 1823 14th, and since conducted, and is now ccnducting, the liquor business on said premises under the license issued for 1825 ard 1827 14th street. Further, that the saloon is within 400 feet of a school. The inspector’y report, to whom the matter was referred, confirms the first part of the report, but states that, while the place is more than 400 feet from the Dennison School, it is less than that distance from the Orphan Asylum. Mr. Kozel was called before the excise board this morning. He stated that the charge concerning the use of premises 1823 as his garden is correct, but not in violation of law, as he was in the habit of using the rear of those premises before the garden was built for the sale of liquors. Further, that there is but one entrance to the garden, and that known as 1825. Again, it the buildings were renumbered, since the new houses were erected on 14th street, his property would be known as 1825 and 1827, as pre- viously. The board heard the statements and took the matter under advisement. A request from Wm. M. Sefton, 1837 14th street, that his name be taken off the ap- plication was also considered by the board. Mr. Sefton claims that he signed the original application under a misapprehen- sion, believing it was valid only one year. He is now fully convinced that the place is an annoyance to the people in the neigh- borhood and a detriment to their property. He believes, also, that the place is within 400 feet of a public school. —— EMERGENCY HOSPITAL. sao 7 ei Raakaaal (liscelianeous) {tooms). AUCTION SALES OF REAL ESTATE, &c. Monda; ©. G.

The annual report of the Emergency Hos- pital and Central Dispensary, which has just been made public, shows that during the past fiscal year there has been a large increase in the number of patients treated at the institution. In presenting the re- port President Boardman calls attention to the suggestion made last winter when the appropriation for the institution was under discussion. It was the wisdom of supplying one institution with all the surgical skill, appliances and rooms for the proper treat- ment of emergency cases. In a city of the population of Washington one institution so equipped, he says, would be able to at- tend to that class of cases. Were it pos- sible to supply each of several hospitals with an experienced and skilled surgeon it could hardly be expected that either Con- gress or the general public would be willing to do the unnecessary thing of providing all of them with expensive appliances re- quired for success in surgical operations. President Boardman calls attention to the necessity of providing more room for the institution. He closes his report with a recommendation of $15,000 for the ensuing year for maintenance. The reports of Dr. Swann M. Burnett, president of the attending staff, shows an encouraging condition of affairs at the hos- pital, as does the interesting report of the superintendent, Miss Eva Simonton. Se Rioting in Posen.
