Ipsanitery, Unwholesome or Unsighily Vehi- eles Wasl“dabptea. tone After a consultation with Prosecuting At- torney Pugh, and the,thjef of police, the District Commissioners today adopted a police regulation ‘inténd2d to secure safe, sanitary and sightly public vehicles, and also amend2d section .2'of article 9 of the pelice regulations, prohibiting needless noises and outeries for the purpose of s0- Melting trade. Section 2 of article 9, provided that no person within the District should make any needless noise or outcry, or any noise or outery, for the purposé of advertising wares or attracting the-attention or inviting thé patronage of“any person for any hack or other vehicle or any busin=ss whatsoever. This section was first amended today by striking out the words “‘or any noise or out- ery,” so that only “needless noise or out- ery” shall in the future be prohifbited. This amendment was adopted at the sugg2stion ‘of Mr. Pugh, who took the ground that hucksters, having “regdlarly licensed, “have as a matter of right the privilege of calling attention in. a legitimate and not oe way to the Wares they have for sale. - This section, as it originally stood, also prohibited newsboys from crying extra edi- tions of the out-of-town newspapers, even on extraordinary occasions, and it was so | emended today as to r2move that restric- tion, the result being that in the future the newsboys will be permitted to cry extra edi- tions of all newspapers om extraordinary occasions, Sundays included. What is meant by “oxtraordinary occasions” will, of course, now heve to fe judicially deter- mined whenever the occasion for such a de- termination arises. = The new regulatfon adopted by the Gom- mission2rs today respecting public vehicles will be known as section 6 of article -V. It is as follows: “Any vehicle for the convey- ance of passengers for hire which is In an unsafe, unsanitary, unwholesom: or - un- sightly condition may be condemned by the Police officer detailed as hack inspector; and if the owner or ag2nt thereof shall continue to utilize said vehicle without first having made the same safe, Sanitary, wholesome | or sightly such: owner or agent shall be brought before the Police Court, and, upon conviction, be fin3d as provided in section 7 of this article.” j ‘The fine referred to is:one of not less than twenty-five nor more than forty dollars for each and every offense. It is not improb- able that the polic2 regulations will be amended in a short time so as to require all drivers of public vehicles to enroll their names with the police authorities, so that the police may at all times hav2 a full de- scription of the names, and character of such drivers. ~ ts Seo) ees MAIN MARTYRS, meee Movement to Imprgverthe Condition of Their Grave it Key West.

More Than Fifty Designs Submitted to the Navy Department. TO SEE WARFARE. An Opportunity WHT Be Given Naval Cadets at Annapolis. The Navy Department has decided ta give the naval cadets at Annapolis an op- | Pcrtunity to see real warfare, by taking assignments on the warships in lieu of tha customary summer vacation. As a result, about half of the second. men and ‘quite a number of the third-class men have been assigned to duty on the Indiana, New York, Iowa and other ships in West In- dian waters. The assignments are not gen- eral, applying to an entire 8, but @re entirely elective by the cadets themselves. They are showing much eagerness for.the service, as disclosed by the large number of applications thus far made. The de- artment bas approved the appéication in all cases, unless “some personal or family objection was raised. The assignments are made to the larger ships, as they af- fcrd the best accommodation, the smaller genboats and auxiliary craft not having the room for extra men. The cadets will be made useful in many ways, but mainiy as signal officers. Among the cadets at Annapolis is a young Japanese who is receiving instruction there through the courtesy of the United States government. He is of a high, in fact, a princely race. He was among the first to volunteer for active service on the American warships in the present war with Spain,and was promptly assigned to @ desirable berth, where he would have seen as much fighting as any boy could de- sire. But as soon a: news reached the Japanese legation here a stern veto was in- terposed. 1t was all well enough to educate the youth theoretically im the art of war- fare, but the minister felt that he had no authority to allow him to jeopardize his life in actual service without the consent of his noble family in Japan., So the Navy Department was requested to countermand the order, and the young cadet will be obliged to view the war from a distance. ie Secretary Long's Secretary Long was not so “well today, and it is hardly probable that he will be able to leave his room for several days yet. He strained one of the tendons of his right leg several days ago and the trouvle has since been with an attack of rheumatism is unable to walk without great pain, and his physician has prescribed complete rest for a few days.
