Inquiries Made Into the Conditions, Sanitary and Other Affairs—Sev- eral Reforms Hiuted At. Commissioner Wight spent this morning in and, about the Police Court to better acquaint himself with the duties of the policemen detailed there, and also to get an idea of the manner in which the officers give their evidence before the court. There were eighty-five prisoners in the cells, and the Commissioner was given an idea of how these unfortunates suffer from the bad atmosphere there. He found the cells and corridors apparently good sanitary condition, for “Parson Hughes, the janitor, had given the place its usual weekly coat of whitewash, and until the prisoners arrived the place was without the unpleasant odor usually emitted. The Commissioner was pleased to meet Michael Flynn, the big policeman, about whom he had heard so much, and he was gratified with the manner in which he gave his orders and handled the crowd of spectators and witnesses who called. When the Commissioner r ed the building he Ww shown about ihe cell rdoms by the big policeman, who also showed him the ter of the breakfast furnished the With this part of the investigation over Mr. Wight tock a seat in the oftice of Mr. , the prosecutor, and remained there the officers and citizens made their compiaints. He was very much interested in the manner in which the officers stated f complaints. whe ree Number of Cases. The charges filed were unusually numer- cus, and Policeman Elliott and the prose- cutor were kept busy making out the in- formations. In this connection the Commissioner thinks an improvement can be made,and the services of the detailed policeman dis- pensed with in court. The station keeper, he thinks, will be able to fill out part of the informations at the stations, and these can be taken to the prosecutor by the po- liceman in the case. Should this arrange- ment not work satisfactorily, he is of the cpinion that a young man, a typewriter, might be utilized to assist. As this work has to be done early in the morning, it is possible that a stenographer in the Distri ding may be detailed for two hours each day to attend to it. When court convened the Commissioner went in the court room and listened to the hearing of the cases. There was so much in the room during the proceedings that he could hardly hear what was being said until he accepted a seat on the bench with the judge. There were nearly ninety to pass in review.

It is expected that the largest cfowd thet has put in an appearance at River View will go down todey on the excursion of the Catholic benevolent societies of Washing- ton, the proceeds of which are to be do- nated to the girls’ orphanage of St. Vin- cent’s. There will be a number of extra boats put on for the benefit of the extra crowd and it is estimated from the sale of tickets and the interest which attaches to the outing and the purpose for which it is given that at least 7,000 persons will be cn the grounds when the evening boats arrive tonight. The first boat left George- town this morning at 8:45 and the Seventh street wharf at 10 a.m., and was crowded to the water's edge at its first stopping place. There were four or five more boats during the day and each one was so crowded that the gang plank had to be drawn in, although several hundred were in waiting. Upon the arrival of the last boat this evening Rev. Dr. D. J. Stafford will maké an address from the pavilion and this feature will be enough to more than crowd any number of boats the ex- cursion company could arrange for. ‘The steamer Macalester will make a spe- cial trip to Indian Head this evening, leav- ing her wharf at 6:30 o'clock. These sails down the river are extremely enjoyable and are taken advantage of by those who like to get a few hours on the water at night, away from the hot city. Yeaterday was a gala day at Marshall Hal). Each boat brought hundreds of folks from town, searching for a little respite from the burning heat. And they found it. Never were the grounds cooler or more comfortable. The fresh breezes from the Potomac never abated for a minute, and the parties were content to sit in the cool shade and enjoy it—pictures of solid com- fort. Schroeder's concert up near the man- sion in the afternoon was one of the best he has given this seascn, and was enjoyed by hundreds who went down especially to hear it. ‘The trip up the river at night was an ideal summer night's sail. A good many cyclists took their wheels down on the earlier boats, and made runs through the country from the Hall. The roads are good from this point and the rides very enjoy- able. Accommodation for the wheels is furnished free by the company. For rest and pleasure, particularly on Sunday, there is no other attraction offered to Washing- ton veople that can compare with the “green lawns.” The Great Falls Ice Company's Associa- tion make an evening of it at the Hall to- morrow night. This association certainly has the faculty for one thing—that of en- tertaining its guests, and it never fails to do so royally. This trip will be no excep- tion. The committee in charge of the amusements have done everything in their power to make a pleasurable time for the members and friends, and in the face of such an honest effort’ failure is out of the avestion. There will, of course, be dane- ing, the music for it being furnished by Schrocder and his men. All the other sorts of amusement have been arranged, usual on such occasions, and the trip is’an as- sured success before it starts. pa IS A special excursion to Indian Head will be made by the Macalester at 6:30 tonight. Round trip fare, 25c.—Advt. Great Balloon Ascension at River View. A crowd of immense proportions made the trip to River View yesterday to wit- ness the balloon ascension and parachute drop made by Miss Grace Shannon. The time for the event was fixed at 7 o'clock and one of the interesting features in con- nection with it was that it was held just as announced. For an hour before the as- cension a hot air furnace had been supply- ing the necessary amount of expansion to take the immense balloon up about 5,00 feet, and when the time came for the mon- s to be set loose the top was at least eighty feet from the ground. ‘The balloon measure 0 feet around at the largest diameter, and from this some idea may be gained of its size. As the flapping, loose bag began to fill the beg poles which had held it on either side were thrown down and finally the balloon was held only by two stout lines in the hands of several able-bodied men. Miss Shannon had by this time made her appearance clad In a suit of red. On account of the near prox- imity of the river she wore a life-preserver and this interfered with the customary act she does while up in the air. The para- te hung from the balloon and Miss Shannon occupied a seat at the bottom of th When the word was given the lines were loosened and the balloon went straight up in the air.

Their Bodies: Net Recovered Until This Morning—peath of John Bank- head Magruder—Other News. One of the saddest accidents which has ever occurred im the Anacostia river took place yesterday morning, when two young men, residents of the District, lost their lives. Their bodies were recov- ered early this morning. The unfortunate victims were Wm. Lauxmann, aged twen- ty-seven years, of No. 1625 Benning road, anc his ccasin, Palmer Lauxmann, aged twenty-one, of No. 1003 New Jersey ave- nue northwest. According to the statements of some of the companions of the Messrs. Lauxmann, who were with them at the time the drowning cccurred, a pariy of about twelve young men, most of whom were members of the Eastern Branch Fishing Club, yes- terday morning hired boats at Deaver's boat house, near the Benning bridge, and rowed to Beck's point, which is about half a mile further down the river. Tie water is very deep in this vicinity, und scme of the party proposed that all take a swim. Although neither of the young men who were drowned were ex- perts in swimming, they readily agreed to the proposal, and taking one of the boats they pushed out by themselves toward the middle of the river. The act was witnessed by the rest of the party, and no particular attention was paid to them, until suddenly the boat overturned, from what cause wili never be known, and both young men were thrown into the water, which at that point is about thirty feet deep. As speedily as possible those on shore went in boats to the rescue of the Laux- manns, and at one time it seemed as though William would be saved, but his efforts to take hold of the side of one of the boats as it passed him were ansuccessful, and h sank to rise no more. Meanwhile Palmer Lauxmann succeeded by the most desperate efforts in almost reaching the opposite shore of the river, and two of the party jumped into the water with the hopes of aiding him, but he sank before they could reach him, The Police Notified. As soon as the others of the party could reach a telephone, they notified the poli authorities, and they informed Hari Master Sutton of the affair. The latter at once proceeded to the scene and dragged the river for several hours without favora- ble result. The s nh for the bodies was abardoned by the police boat crew for the night. Harb Master ‘Sutton, however, loaned the grappling trons to the members of the Eastern Branch Fishing Club, and the dragging was continued by thea: and others who volunteered their servic Early this morning the body of Wi Lauxmann was brought to the surface hy Ross Morrison, and tha, of Palmer Laux- mann by Officer Tolbert, a guard at the work house. The remains were removed to the morgue to await the action of Cor- oner Carr, and afterward taken to the late am homes of the young men.

Mr. John Bankhead Magruder, a cousin of the noted confederate artillery officer of the same name, died yesterday at his coun- try seat, a few miles below Anacostia, in his eighty-elghth year.

The nines which contested for supremacy were composed of members of the Washington and Baltimore stock exchanges, and in or- der to prevent difficulties Veteran Nick Young acted as umpire. There was a very sarge attendan and the features were enthusiastically received. Washington made twelve runs in the first inning, and Mr. W. B. Hibbs, who managed the home team, said that settled it. The players were as follows: Washington—Earle, c. and 2b.: Johnson, p.; Vaughn, 1b.; Mearns, 2b.; Dulany, 2b.; H. Wilson, s. Deeble, 1 Williams, c. f.; Green, r. f.; Hibbs, c.; Paris, 1. f.

In an interview today he said: “I am more than delighted to get back to Wash- ington. I feel that I am among friends, and will soon be able to convince the theater-goers here that I have got together a company of players that could not be im- proved upon. It is no exaggeration when I tell you that I made my selections from nearly five hundred applicants, and I can assure you that I have worked night and day ever since I was here | "My Friend From India Co.’ To answer all spplications I received, playing every night and matinees two and three times a week and traveling nearly every day, was pretty trying on a fellow, but here I am, reads and eager for the fray. I mean to gi the best comedy ever presented to the theater- goers of Washington, as my previous ex- periences have convinced me that those who attend the theaters in summer want to laugh, and it was with that in view that I selected my company and plays. From what I have seen in the papers, the people here should be well acquainted with the personnel of the company. My opening bill will be a most delightful one, and I believe will more-than please those who witness the performance.” aS Funeral of the Late R. F. Cardela. The funeral of the late R. F.
