The Supreme Council of the American Protective Association, whcse third day’s session of the present annual meeting is being held today, this morning, by an unanimous vote, indorsed the position taken and commended the speeches delivered by Senator Morgan of Alabama in refer- ence to the Cuban question. The council also, by a similar vote, con- demned and deaounced Senator Vest of Missouri for words used by him in a re- cent speech in the Senate, during which, as reported, he referred to the teachers now among the Indians as a lot of “broken down preachers and teachers,” and that for his part he would much rather the Indians had remained under the charge of the Catholic priests as they were for many years. The resolution in reference to Sena‘or Vest also called upon the Senate of the United States to impeach Mr. Vest on the ground that he is, not truly American in bis views. Copies of the resolutions, prop- erly authenticated, were ordered to be sent to all persons directly interested. The resolution in reference to Senators Morgan and Vest came before the council as reports from a special committee ap- pointed to consider the action of the ex- ecutive board, by which the resolutions were drafted. That relating to Senator Morgan was first considered, and a number of speeches, all highly complimentary to that senator, were made. After all who desired to ad- dress the council on the subject had done so the question was put by President Echols and carried, as stated. In reference to the Vest resolution there were also a number of speeches, but the language used was very emphatic in dis- approval of that senator’s remarks on the occasion referred to, and the report of the committee was adopted without a dissent- ing vote. Officers 1: led. During the morning meeting officers elected yesterday afternoon to serve for the ensuing year were installed by Past Supreme President W. J. H. Traynor of Detroit, Mich., as follows: President, John W. Echols of Atlanta, Ga.; vice president, E. J. Stickle, Canton, Ohio; secretary of state, Harry’ C. Sawyer, Pennsylvania; chaplain, W. H. Gottwald, D.D., Wash- ington; supreme secretary, Wm. J.’ Palmer, Colorado; supreme treasurer, C. J. Stock- man, Maryland; supreme sergeant-at-arms, Cc. E. Taylor, Bath, Me.; supreme guard, E. T. Davis, Springfield, Mass.; supreme sentinel, R. M. Chambers. Maryland; trus- tees, T. B. Haughwaut, T. N. Losie and J. H. Nickson. This city was selected as the place of next year’s meeting. The committee on revision of the consti- tution and laws made a report, which was read, after which a recess was taken with } the understanding that the report will be disposed of after the council reassembles this afternoon. It is expected that the final adjournment will take place tonight. ——.——_ The Street Extension Kickers. To the Editor of The Evening Star: Banquo's ghost doesn't appear to be in it. I have read The Star and other papers, all showing that the street extension kickers are out in full force. Others have some rights, and I, as one, ask assistance and justice for those whose property has been condemned for nearly two years, during the height of the money panic and at A | prices far below the present value, accept- ed by us under an implied contract to be paid for our homes within six months from the time of condemnation. In the mean- time some have been sold out under the trusts on their property, thus losing all they possessed; others have seen a trunk sewer run directly across their property without the privilege of using it, their wells condemned as unfit for use and city water denied them for family purposes be- cause the property had been condemned tor street extension purposes. Sidewalks and other city improvements have been denied for the same reason. During the past session of Congress the Senate used its best endeavers to have us paid for the confiscated property in the Denison and Leighton subdivision, through which the proposed new 16th street is to run, but the House denied us relief because the constitutionality of the law was pend- ing in the Supreme Court, and now that the decision has been rendered the Com- missioners and certain citizens have sud- denly become enlightened and declare that it will cost too much to extend the streets on the lines that have already cost thou- sands of dollars to demonstrate to be the best for everybody except the kickers, and what has been done should be undone, and the whole question reopened. If it has taken all these years for these parties to find out that the cost will be too much, what length of time will they require to produce a bill to suit them, and what will it cost for action on such a measure when that time arrives, with land values in- creased beyond any possibility of paying for the same? Do you know of any method by which each one of them can have a little bill of his own passed, or that we of the con- demned section can be paid for the lands and homes that have been taken and are today used exclusively by the District, even at the prices of two years ago? Cc. B. TANNER, Denison and Leighton’s Subdivision. es Deferred His Trip to New York. William Barker, a one-armed man, bound for New York, landed at the workhouse to- di William was begging from door to door, and from store to store, last evening, on Capitol Hill, and, after warning the man several times, Policeman Fitton finally placed him under arrest as a vagrant. “Guilty,” admitted Barker, when ar- raigned today before Judge Mills in the Police Court. “Why were you begging?” asked the court. “I wanted to raise enough money to gei to New York,” was the reply. “I am a painter and can secure work there.” “Thirty days.” ————— Capital Council.
