The attorney for the Antl-Saloon Leag-1e has requested the kind offices of the Com- missioners to bring about a change in the method of obtaining signatures to applica- tions for liquor licenses.

The matter has been re- ferred to the excise board for report. ees Commencement Exercizes. The Jefferson Place University School, of which Mr. Robert 8.

One of the most interesting local hafipen- ings of the week was the electibn of a-new board of directors for the National+Met- ropolitan Bank. The transfer of the bank into new hands attracted more attehtion than it would otherwise have ‘done‘from the fact that the prime movers in the’ deal were the same gentlemen who had,*such a short time before, purchaséd the’ con- trolling interest in the Bank of the Re- public, also one of the oldest and strongest of the local banks. ~ For this reason the élection of a board of directors and a’ new set of officers for the Metropdlitan Bank was looked forward to as a metter of a great deal of importance in the financial world of Washington. ‘ That Mr. E. Southard Parker would prob- ably be chosen as the head of ‘the institu- tion was predicted in The Star within a day or two after the announcement had been made that Mr. 8S. W. Woodward and Mr. Parker had secured a majority of the stock. It was generally believed that Mr. Woodward would remain at the head & the Bank of the Republic, to which posi- tion he had already been elected. The election of Mr. Parker as president, and of Mr. Woodward as vice president of the Metropolitan was, therefore, not in the nature of a surprise. For a time there was considerable gossip along the “street as to the real significance of the big bank deal, but this is beginning to subside, and the general impression prevails that the two big banks will simply continue to do business as they have always done, in a strong and conservative but progressive manner, ‘The transfer brought into the directorate of the Metropolitan several new men, but they are all well known in the local bus- iness world as men of means and promi- nence. Mr. Parker is a trained banker of long experience, having been actively iden- tifled with the business in Pennsylvania betore he came to Washington to ‘become the cashier of the then recentiy organized Columbia Bank. When Mr. B. H. Warner resigned as president ‘of that successful in- stitution, Mr. Parker was elected to suc- ceed him, and has filled the office in an eminently satisfactory manner ever since. Under his direction, seconded by Mr. Geo. H. B. White, who has long been the cash- jer, it is probable that the policy of the bank will not be materially changed from what {t was under the regime of Mr. Thompson. Mr. Woodward is one of the best-known men in Washington, and his connection with any institution is always regarded as an element of strength. Ever since he came here with his partner, Mr. A. M. Lothrop, and opened up in business on a comparatively small scale in Market space, the success of the firm has been re- markable, although the reasons for it have not been hard to find. Mr. Woodward has always been actively identified wjth church and philanthropic work and has given largely of his means in various forms of charity. He is the president of the Wash- ington board of trade and is connected with many other local institutions. Of the directors Messrs. W. B. Gurley and G. H. B. White are the only members of the old board who were continued in of- fice. Mr. Gurley is still a comparatively ycung man. He was formerly connected with the gas company, but for a number of years past has been in active business for himself. He has achieved a considerable measure of success. Mr. White's history is so closely identified with that of the Metro- politan Bank that it is difficult to. think of one without associating the other with it. He entered the bark a good many years ago in a subordinate position, and his ad- vancement since then has been steady and deserved. He rose through the wariaus po- sitions until he was finally made asaistant cashier, and twenty years ago or:mere he was chosen to the responsibleyposition of cashier. He is one of the best infgrmed banking men in Washington. iHe ige con- servative, but far-sighted, an@ the,pank has any number of clients whopdn business matters, rely implicitly upon Mr. Wibite’s judgment. ra v7 Mr. Henry K. Willard, who sueceedad his father on the board, is a young man of fine business atility and of high chpracten. He is a graduate of Yale University; and the many friends of the Willard family are g:ad to see that the younger eration is taking a lively interest in u on’'s io ie =) - Mr. J.

Armes is also well known as a real estate man and a man of means. Mr. John B. Larner is a lawyer, with a large and lucrative practice, and is identi- fled with several business institutions in the city, notably the Washington’ Loan and Trust Company, of which he is the general counsel.

I have one faint hope that my family may not be paupers, and it is that the form of our freedom may be the protection of the great republic.” There Is no other chance. Men of this stamp are in touch with busi- ness, and they are against the policy of the torch, and they have tried hard to save something from the wreck. The names of such men must not be given under any cir- cumstances, for {t would mean confisca- tion and assassination. What they say is vital. It would be murder to send their names confidentially to the Senate. The President has sent a special com- missioner to Havana, Mr. Calhoun, who has been accompanied by two gentlemen evidently in close relations to him, and the results of this mission will soon be in possession of the President; and what he does should be the only report. 5. It was a gross mistake for the Cuban representatives to make—vaporing over the belligerency resolution, when they knew what was going on—knew that Key West literature was at best only founded on fact—ought to have known that those hav- ing in charge the potentialities of the United States must absolutely know the whole truth from the inside—an unpardon- able mistake for Cubans—to hasten with their own heedless propaganda and culti- vate a quarrel, if not pick a misunder- standing with the President for doing his duty; and he had discharged it so well as to empty the prisons of Americans. Mr. Calhoun Shadowe: The fact is fairly well known—it has reached the writer of these lines through private channels—that Special Commis- sioner Calhoun has been shadowed by Spanish spies every hour since he left Washington, and will be assiduously ob- served on his return; and that on the ships. and the roads, in Tampa and Key West, and Havana and Matanzas, he has spoken to no one who has not been noted, and who, with his associations, is not inves- tigated. The Spaniards have been more thoroughly aware than Americans at large seem to be. that the special commission of Mr. Calhoun is of the utmost importance. Should the Senate insist upon having, for confidential use, so. to speak, the private notes Mr. Calhoun has taken of conversa- tions with him? Can the Senate be un- aware that the debate on the belligerency resoluticn must in some degree have re- strained the communicativeness of the peo- vle the spdecial commissioner has met or heard from, as he would be most likely to do, through third parties? Is it possible senators do not know the Cuban situation well enough to be clear that the true stories Mr. Calhoun must rely upon chiefly for the “inner light” that he was to seek are from n.en he did not meet, who could not go to him, who could only impart the secret of their identity as a matter of life and death, imposing a sacred obligation that the real names should never be placed on paper? Will the Senate hold that these confidences shall be exposed and debated in executive session? Certainly not. There are two hundred men who know the secrets of the Senate, and, therefore, there are no import- ant secrets. And yet it was the fact that the Pres- ident did not order the dumping of the confidences of men who took their lives in their hands when they wrote the mem- oranda, upon the desks of ail the senators, that caused the high temper of several henorable senators to be placed upon ex- hibition, ard votes to be cast avowedly by Senator Gorman to censure the President! There are some signs that the Senate has the second sober thought on this subject. It is high time it had. There is no reason in the statesmanship of business or humanity that the United States should assume responsibility for the mistakes the Cubans have made under the dreadful strain of a war of unprecedented herror—for there is nothing in the books of blood, ancient and modern, in the story of the Netherlands or Armenia equal to this Cuban tragedy—but because the case is so exceptional and oppressive in its cal!s upon us, owing to our close relationship and sympathy with Cuba, we should guide our footsteps with every precaution of statecraft, and if we must interfere for the Cuban cause and the relief of Spain from the struggle of death in the war with her children, we should be sure to make no mistake.

Altercation With a Postmaster in Which He Drew a Pistol—He Charges Persecution. William A. Stuart, a colored man, who previously served as a railway mail clerk, bas been called to the attention of the Post Office Department by statements he is making of alleged gross injustice which led do his removal from the government servy- ice. He has claimed that he was per- sistently persecuted on account of his col- or, his life made miserable, and now he seeks reinstatement in his old place. The following statement of the causes that led to Mr. Stuart’s removal from the service was furnished a Star reporter to- day at the office of the superintendent of the railway mail service: “William A. Stuart was removed from the railway mail service cn March 2, 18%. He held a position as railway postal clerk in the East Radford and Kenova rallway post office. On December 20, 1885, while on duty in his car, he had an altercation with A. J. Godfrey, the postmaster at Bram- well, W. Va., during which he not only applied very offensive and improper epi- thets to Postmaster Godfrey, but drew his pistol and threatened to use ét. Mr. Stuart, in a letter to his superintendert, acknowl- edged having displayed his pistoi, but States that he did not do so until Post- master Godfrey had picked up a brickbat to throw at him. An officer of the service was sent to Bramwell to investigate the cése, and upon his report to the depart- ment Mr. Stuart was removed. “The statement of Postmaster Godfrey Was substantially as follows: ‘As a mat- ter of accommodation to the railway postal clerks, he had been giving them the regis- tered mail for the east on their westbound trips, so as to give them more time to dis- tribute it. On the day of the difficulty he did not have.this mail made up in time to Geliver it on the westbound trip, and when he handed it to Clerk Stuart on the east- bound trip, Stuart said: “Why didn’t you give me this mail as I went down?’ To which he replied that He did not have it ready and that he only gave it to him westbound as a matter of accommodation. To this Stuart replied.in a very rude man- ter that hereafter he wanted this mail as he went down. Mr. Godfrey then said that when he had it ready he would give it to him or the westbound trip; otherwise he Mould give it to him on the return trip. Furthermore, that he must stop dicating to him; that he was getting tired of it, and that if he failed to discharge his duty as postmaster the remedy was to report him to the department. Stuart replied in an angry manner that he had a right to dictate to him, and, with an oath, said he would do so whenever he pleased, at the same time shaking his fist in Postmaster God- frey’s face. At this Postmaster Godfrey stepped back and picked up a_brickbat, whereupon Clerk Stuart went back into the car, got a pistol, and, holding it in his hand, applied a very opprobrious term to the postmaster, threatening to kill him if he did not drop the brick. At this time the train moved off, thus ending the affair.’ “Mr. George N. Lewis, treasurer of the Buckeye Coal and Coke Company, who came up during the altercation, made a statement which was substantially the same as Mr. Godfrey's. Mr. W. O. Tayler, an employe of the railroad company, who was referred to by Stuart as a witness, testified to having seen Stuart threatening Mr. Godfrey with the pistol in his hand. The department considered that the of- fense committed by Clerk Stuart made his removal necessary.” —_-e—_____ CONDENSED LOCALS.
