The first section left at 8:10 o'clock and the second section about 9 o'clock. = ‘The leaguers were armed with flags, bunting, chapter devices and other sym- bols and were in the best of spirits, with encugh enthusiasm to fill four trains -n stead of two. Large numbers of the stay-at-homes of the organization were at the station to Godspeed their more fortunate’ brothers and sisters on their way, and for a time th2 depot presented a lively scene.

The conference committee changed that amendment to make it correspond with the law giving leaves of absence to the members of the police, and the bill, as it finally passed, was as follows: x “ ‘Hereafter each of the members of the fire department shall be entitled to leave of absence each year, with pa. for such time, not exceeding twenty di as the Commissioners shall determine.’ “It was not the intention of the senator who had the matter in charge to change the erder of the weekly leave, but to grant the men ten days more a year.

SENATORS APPEAR AS WITNESSES Cause of Action Based on a Letter to Sertator Gear. — THE PROCEEDINGS IN COURT Robert E. L. White, who came near being made a justice of the peace for the Dis- trict, to serve in the vicinity of Bright- wood, and Thomas J. Staley, the real estate agent, who is anxious to succeed late Jus- tice of the Peace W. C. Harper, were in the Police Court today, to have Judge Kim- ball pass on the character of the real es- tate agent's letter written to Senator Gear concerning the nomination of White, and also bearing on the character of the Brightwood silver champion. This is the case in which White swore out a warrant against Mr. Staley for alleged criminal libel. Assistant District Attorney Baker ap- peared for the prosecution, while Mrs. Belva A. Lockwood appeared as counsel for the defendant. Attorney John A. Clarke was present to assist in the prosccution, while Mr. D. W. Glassie assisted Mrs. Lockwood. Deputy Clerk Harper called attention to the warrant in the case, and Mrs. Lock- weod said she would enter a plea of not guilty. The letter set forth in the warrant, charged to be libelous, reads as follow: “Yesterday the President sent in the name of Robert E. L. White for justice of the peace. Mr. White is an uncompromis- ing democrat of the worst Kind, a gambler, horse raccr and frequenter of Saloons, and this ove. a good and ‘original’ McKinley man in the District, one who has the in- dorsement of four United States senators, nd three representatives, ex-Congressman H.

Senator Gallinger was the first witness examined for the prosecution, He had seen the letter in question, which was sent to him by Senator Gear with an indorsement. The letter, he thought, was in the custody of Mr. Moore, clerk to the committee on the District of Columbi Subsequent to the receipt of the letter in question, he said, he received a_ similar lettvr. ‘This letier seemed to him to be in a handwriting similar to the letter sent him by M and purported to have beet the same person to the alleged libelo: The letter he regcived he found on his -lesk after the nominaijon of Mr. White had been withdrawn, apd then he destroyed it. “Did you considgr, that letter a privileged communication ¢” Mrs. Lockwood inquired ratory eae said Mr. Baker, “bezause the but 1 opinion I desire to nate and le- ate.

Mr. White, the prosecuting witness, was then called) and questioned. His name had been sent to the Senate, he sald, but the Senate had not acted upon it. Witness knew the defendant and had one business him. When the letter 1 of June to Senator Gear was a candidate for office, he was sent and he thought his nomination was pend- ing at chat time. Mrs. Lockwood's Inquiry. “Was there an apology made to you af- ter the letter was written?’ Mrs. Lock- wood asked. “I obje was heard, and Mrs. Lockwood remarked that her co-attorney, as well as the prosecutor, had objected. Mrs, Lockwood's question was again pro- pounded, and she then asked if the send- ing of the letter nad occasioned a breach of the peace. ‘The cpurt said it made no difference, 50 far as the charge of libel was concerned, whether there was a breach of the peace or not. Witness answered neither of the letters of apology. The Apologies. “Do you know, of your own knowledge, that Mr. Staley wrote these letters of apol- ogy?” Witness said he only knew that he had received two letters, which purported to have been signed by Mr. 8. I. Staley. He read one of them as follow: “I regret the piece in The Star regard- ing your confirmatioa as justice, vice Best, dead. It was without my knowledge or consent. I was under a misapprehension of the facts. “I supposed you was a candidate for Harper's place in the city. I certainly have no objection to you being a justice at Brightwood. I will send a communi- cation to The Star.” “Is there any answer from Senator Gear?” Judge Kimball inquired, when wit- ness White had been excused from the stand. “The senator says he is still under ar- t,” answered Bailiff Kendig, ‘and he cennot give any idea of how long it will e before he can come.” voir Baker announced that he had fin- ished the case for the government, with the exception of Senator Gear's testimony, and a short recess Was taken to await the appearunce of the, missing witness. ——— Thefts From Vacant Houses.

In some of the houses tl lpings of bath tubs have been ripped opt ead the lead pipe fixtures also taken. Glassyglcbes from the ges fix- tures were stdlen!from some houses.

THE SUBORDINATE OFFICERS CHOSEN Resolutions of Importance Received and Referred to Committees. GENERAL AND PERSONAL eee eee Evening Star Bureau, No. 519 King Street, Bell Telephone, No. 106, ALEXANDRIA, Va., July 14, 1897. The first meeting of the new city council last night brought out the entire member- ship, with the exception of one belonging to the board of aldermen, who is out of the city. As is usually the case, the newly elected members were on hand promptly at 8 o'clock, but it was half an hour later before the two boards were called to order. A resolution recommending that the com- inittee on strects be increased by tye addi- tion of one member, to be named by the president of the zommon council, was re- ferred to the committee on streets. A resolution from the members of the sinking fund committee asking council to authorize a sult against Ella T. Peters for $120, amount of rent due the city for use of a stall in the city market, was adopted. A resolution to the effect that the com- mittee on general laws be authorized to have the corporation attorney draw up an ordinance requiring the Washington, Alex. andria and Mount Vernon Electric Railway Company to stop their trains at every street crossing when requested so to do: to limit the speed of trains running through the city, and to require fenders on all trains, was referred to the committee on general laws. A petition from the railroad reading room workers for an electric light at the corner of Henry and Wolfe streets, one in front of their auditorium, and for a sidewalk on Wolfe street, was referred to the commit- tees on Mae and streets respectively. A resolution from the board of a Specifying that “from and ater ahr sage of this resolution no person or persons shall be employed on any work done under the supervision of any’ officer or employe of the city, if the wages of such person or ons ure to be paid out of the city trea: , unless they be citizens and residen of Alexandria, Va.," which was introduced by Alderman obi Precipitated discussion e lower board. Mr. Uhler wi opinion that the temo enone Hon would pract wall around the city, and Mr. Stride agreed with him. Mr. Greene favored the passage of the resolution. The action of the board of aldermen was not concurred in, and the matter was referred to the ¢cmmittee on general laws. There being no further general business, the two Fourds went into joint session for the election of the minor city officers. Tt first to be considered was that of poli ecmmissioner for the second ward. There Were two candidates, Mr. Frank Price and Mr. John R. Chapman, Price being chosen. There ts today some question as to the eligibility of Mr. Price to hold the office, | inasmuch as he holds a position under the United States government, and the code of Virginia, section 163, page 105, says no per- son can hold office in the state who is in the employ, for profit or emolument, of the United States. The question will probably be settled at once. The election of the balance of the officers resnited as follows: K town clock—Charles F. , 20; W. E. Denielt, 8. Keeper of the almshouse—William M. Smith, William Dobie, 10, Six ballots were cast, the highest votes received by other candidates being, William Boles, 4; Sanford Fair, 2; Robert A.

Mr. Petty was foreman of the Hydraulion Fire Company for a num years, and the members of the com present at the election last evening m the walls of the old city hall ring with their yells of deiight. Dr. J. T. Miller and Dr. Wm. R. Purvis were elected physicians to the poor, and Dr. Miller health officer. Mr. Edgar War- field, jr., was chosen as dispenser of med- icines for the eastern district, and Mr. C J. W. Sommers for the western district. Wilton Atcheson was electe weigher of hay, and John Craven, steward of of- fices. The old board of health was re- elected.
