OPINION OF DISTRICT'S ATTORNEY pe See e on Excise Board Without Jurisdiction to Permit It to Be Done. WILL BE LAW OBSERVED In the case of John C. Seiler, whose ap- plication for a revewal of a bar room Lquor license at 403 L street northeast was rejected some months ago by the excise beard, the aiterney for the District has rendered to the Commissioncrs a most im- pcrtant opinion, which declares to be ile- gal a practice which has been followed for years in such matiers. The opinion of the Dnstrict’s legal adviser is that the e board ts without diction to allow an rplicant for a liqucr heense to continue L's business after his application has been denied. Replying to a recent inquiry of Commi sicner Wight, Mr. J. Harrison Johr chairman of the excise board. exr that the ion of Seiler's application | was to have taken effect at midnight of April 16, 189s, but on that day the time for clesing the place was indefinitely post- roned, cwing to tho po’ice beard’s trial of two officers who had mate charges a the conduct of S saloon. That ci e was disposed of a few weeks whe Seller was notified by the excise hoard of the rescinding of the order allowing him to continue his business. He was also no- tified that his application for a license had teen denied, and wes given until the 29th i to ¢ p Fis business. Mr. John- sen also explained to the Commissioner that ihe excise beard had : Watter as it dd m-rely th s in interest might be fzirly and jus treated. Attorneys Thomas’ 0: 2. The letter of Mr. Johnson was then re- ferred by the Commissioners to Mr. S. T. Thomas, the attorney for the District, for an opinion in the matter, and it is as fol- lews: “The letter of Chairman Johnson of the excis> board relative to the rejected ap- plication of John ( iler for a bar room licerse at 40% L street northeast, which you referred to me for opinion whether the excise board may allow an applicant for a liquor lcense, who has had a licens? the previous after his appl the applicant notified him to close his busines whether he is liable for sel out a license, has been duly considered. “By section 17 of the act of Congr approved March 3, 1 entitled ‘An act to regulat> the sale of intoxicating liquors in the District of Columbia,’ 27 507, it is provided, “That all applic have had a license during the year shall apply for a renewal of such e on or before November 1 of each se year, and shall be permitted to continue business until the Icense shall be granted or refus»d by the excise board.’ “On March I the Comm who were then a the exci: adopted regulations governing the is of Iquor licenses, among others, one known as section 13, which provides that when an application fc by a person who s year, and the application 1s rej the board, the clerk of the board transmit to the major of polic> a to continue his business s been denied and nd the time allowed expired, and ng liquor with- nts) who preceding Ww ed ni to be served on the applicant in person, | or left at his place of bus’ to the ef- fect that his application for license was refected on a cert 1 that after ing a proportionate amount fee, the balance would be refund a t the rejection of th terminated all rights of the a to continue his business forthy-eight hours after midnight of the day of serving the notice. Th» excise board have since chang- ed this rule so as to terminate the right of the applicant to continue his business from and after midnight of a designated ¢ Without Jurisdiction. “This 1s as liberal a concession as the ard 1s permitted to make in order to en- e an applicant who is refused a lice: to dispose of his stock without unnecessary 1 think the excise board was jurisdiction to extend the without time in this ¢: rll 16 to October 29, 1898, without intending to reconsider the application. If on April 16 the exci ard had rese:nde its order of February 12, refusing Seiler a Neense, and directing him to close his loon, the application would then have been | before it for further reconsideration. It Was irregular to extend the time for closing thi aloon without reviving the application by revoking the order refusing a license. “My opinion is, the excise board is with- out jurisdiction to allow an applicant for a liquor license to continue his busines ter his application has been denied. It is only fair, however, to the excise board to say that it has been the practice since the act of 189% went into effect—a practice which began with the Commissioners—to give an applicant for a license time after his cation is rejected to close up bis busi Under the circumstances of this ¢ think prosecutions would He against Seiler for selling liquor between April 16 and Oc- tober 1808.7" Their attorney's opinion has been approv- ed by the Commissioners, and upon the mouon of Mr. Wight will be forwarded to the excise board, with the request that hereafter the board will conform to the opinion. a TWO MURDERS AND A SUICIDE. Triple Tragedy on the Schooner Frenk Cassidy Near Colonial Beach. Captain James Crockett and Mate George N. Sturgis of the schooner Frank Cassidy were murdered Tuesday last by the colored ccok on the vessel, who was only known by the name of Bob, the latter committing suicide by jumping into the river. Captain Crockett was killed instantly, but Sturgis lived for about thirty hours, dying while being brought to this city on the steamer Harry Randall. According te the storles told by other members of the crew, the schooner was at nchor in the Potomac below Colonial Beach on the morning of the triple tragedy, and the cook was extremely dilatory in preparing breakfast. Captain Crockett found fault with the man and reproved him for it. Bob became very angry, and after abusing and swearing at the captain ran to the kitchen, where he secured a loaded revolver, and returning fired at Captain Crockett. The ball entered the unfortunate man’s heart, killing him Instantly. Bob then turned on Sturgis, who had gone to the assistance of the captain, and fired several she t him. One of the balls en- tered Sturgis’ right side, inflleting a mortal weund. The murderer then jumped over- board and was drowned. Sturgis s taken ashore at Colonial Beach and carried to the residence of Mr. John Walcott, where he was attended by Dr J. W. Eslam, who ‘extracted the ball. He was made as comfortable as possible, and when the Harry Randall stopped at Colonial Beach yesterday morning Sturgis was placed upon the boat to be brought to Washington, it being believed that he would have a better chance to get well in some itals of this city. He soon be- gan to sink, however, and died about o'clock yesterday afternoon. Upon the rival of the steamer here the body was re- the morgue and Coroner Carr was notified. There will, it is stated, be no inquest here, as the crime was not com- mitted in the District. Sturgis was twenty- six years old and had a wife and two or three small children, living in Northampton oe Contract for Destroyers. ‘The Navy Department has entered into contract with the firm of Harlan & Hol- Ungsworth of Wilmington, Del, for the construction of the thirty-knot torpedo boat destroyers Hopkins and Hull.

Joseph H. Choate Compares Croker to That Animal. From the New York Herald of Today. When Joseph H. Choate, in Chickering Hall. last night observed quizzically that Richard Croker reminded him of Balaam’s ass, because fright opened the mouth of the ass when he found himself in a tight place, the enthusiastic republi- cans who crowded the hall despite the downpouring rain shouted with uproarious eelight. The meeting was held by the Blaine Re- Publican Club. After the Diamond Quar- tet had carclled a lay about placing Roose- velt in the Governor's chair, Mr. Choate was introduced by the presiding officer, John A. Weeks. “This cordial reception,” began Mr. Choate, “is almost as great a compliment as the one I received last week from the unctuous lips of Richard Croker himself. I regard it as the highest compliment for any respectable citizen of New York to be abused by him. “A great deal hangs on the fact that Mr. Croker has opened his lips. The dumb ha® spoken. “He never speaks when things are going in the way to suit him. 1 ask you why this shrewd and calculating politician at this lite hour has found it necessary to open his lips? “His conduct, his speech, why he spoke, recall to my mind the famillar story of Balaam’s ass. and in two of three points Mr. Croker reminds me of that celebrated beast of burde “In the first place, till the spoke no- body in the world imagined what a per- fect ass he wa If he hadn't spoken. he would have ed into destiny as an ordinary, silent But when he spoke he was distirguished from all other asseS in the land, “Why did the ass 2k? Do you remem- ber the sto “Because he was frightencd. Because. as the Bible says, he got into a tight place where he could neither turn to the right nor left. When he saw the one who bore the flaming sword confronting him at last he spoke. You can tell me who the young man was who bore the sword. “I think Mr. Croker has done more to promote the success of the republicans in this campaign than any of our own mem- bers. He made the most important utter- ance heard in this land for the last twelve month “He said, ‘Have you an honest judge on the bench? Let me test him.’ And he calls upon that judge to remove an honest of- ficial and appoint his nominee. And@ the honest judge refused, and Mr. Croker said, ‘We'll have no more such judges in New York as long as I rule Tammany Hall, and I'm here for life.” “No wonder a new and unexpected im- petus wos given to our campaign. This people will not submit to such an outrage, and I calculate that the republicans and in- dependents ef this city are ready to make him an answer at the polls.” CAPT. C. GORDO) DEATH. It Resulted From a Cold Caught While Campaigning. Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. HYATTSVILLE, Md., October 27, 1898. The death of Capt. Charles G.

District's Legal Adviser Sustains Ap- plication of Western Union Co. Relative to the request of the Western Union Telegraph Company for permission ith to string six additional wires across street just north of Florida avenue, order to furnish additional service to the ball park, the attorney for the Dis- trict has rendered an opinion, in which he sustains the right of the company to the desired permit. In his opinion, which is similar to one rendered some weeks ago, the District's legal adviser holds that the act of July 18, 1S8%, which provides that the Commi: s:oners shall not permit or authorize an additional telegraph, telephone. electri light or other wires to be erected on over any of the streets or avenues of Washington did not operate to repeal the express provisions of the national ¢el graph act. The Western Union Telegraph Company having accepted the previsions cf that act, is entitled to maintain poles and overhead wires to the extent necessary to accommodate its business, says the attorney, subject, nevertheless, to such municipal control in the designation of streets and the location of poles as may be necessary to secure to the public safety, convenience and freedom in the use of the streets. —_—>——_-_..
