The inquest, which resulted in Sew- ell being held for the crime, took place at 4 o'clock at the sixth precinct station, and care was ta’son to see that the prisoner did not follow ‘he example of the murdered Powell and eszape. Before gaing to the sixth precinct Sewell was taken to headquarters, where he was measured, and he was afterward phoio- graphed for the gallery. He was hand- cuffed when he reached the sixth precinct station. He was conveyed there in the Georgetown precinct patrol wagon. A num- ber of colored people gathered on the side- walk to get a glimpse of him. on after the jury heard the evidence a verdict was rendered, as foliows: “Susan Mahoney died at 910 27th street northwest, October 27, L898, about 10:15 p.m., from the effects of a pistol shot wound of the head and brain, ‘nflicted by a_pistol in the hands of George Sewell. We direct that the said George Sewell be he'd for the ac- tion of the grand jury.” chariah Brooks, the colored witness. whose ankle was broken when he pursued and attemnted to apprehend Sewell, was not able to be present at the inquest. ¥ liam Thornton and Mary Plummer, who were visiting Sus'e Mahoney at the time she was killed, appeared as witnesses and told the story of the sFooting, as was pub- lished in yesterday's Star. Deputy Cor- oner zebrook, who performed the au- topsy. explained to the jury the course of the bullet after it passed through the man’s skull. The police of the third and seventh pre- cincts who were interested in the Investl- gation were present at the inquest. a FOR MEN ONLY. Address at Central Union Mission Rooms Tomorrow Afternoon. Maj.

C. Wood- ward, the health officer, to the fact that the existing contract for the collection and removal of garbage and dead animals will expire June 30, 1900. Dr. Woodward rec- ommends that bids be called for not later than January, 1900, and that the matter be advertised during December, 1899. the successful bidder,” Woodward, “will require a "considerable ume, and certainly not less than_ three months. in order to pri the equipm necessary to carry out the terms of the c t, such an award will have to be made er than March 21. 1900. In order that ing bn bids may have opportunity to inquire into the ch and amount of work to be done under cifications, bids should be called for y days prior to the close ing, that is, not later than Janu- says Dr. the bidd ary. 1900, The act of July 5, 1884 rred upon the Commiss rity to enter into co of gar for periods not exceedir apparently con- e years, subject to annual appropri: Congress: but for some reason th nority so conferred was ent whne the current contract was awarded, specifie authority for its award being ob- tained in the appropriation act of March 2, 1895.

He then imposed the fine, which was paid. ant guilty of the larceny of $1,682 from Arthur 0. Babendrier of the Metropolitan Railroad Company, March 30, 1997. Price received the announcement of his convic- tion with the composure that was charsc- teristic of him throughout the trial. The jury was polled, each of the twelve men answering ‘guilty’ when his name called. In the absence of District Attorney Davis. one of his assistants, Mr. D. W. Baker. moved the court to remand Price to jail to await sentence. It was explain- ed by counsel for the defendant that mo- tion for a new trial would be filed, and therefore request was made that Price be admitted to bail. Br. Baker urged that ro action in that direction be taken until this morning, when Mr. Davis would be rresent. The court ruled, however, thar no wd reason existed why the defendant should not be released, if prover surety be furnished. Attorney Lipscomb stated that Price's former bondsman, Mr. Robert J. Menair of New York, was in court ard ready to qualify. While awaiting trial Price was undcr a bond of $%,000. Mr. Baker insisted that if the defendant was to be released to await sentence the bond should be $10,000, Mr. Baker went on to explain to the court that the prisoner is a high-class criminal with a bad record, something that could not be brought out during the trial. Chief Justice Bingham fixed bail at $10,000, and Mr. Menair quali- fied as surety in that sum. Price, accompanied by his attorney, Mr. Abram Rose, and his bondsman, Mr. Men- air, left the city last evening for New York. The motion for a new trial must be filed within four days and will be called up for argument probably next Saturday. The defense has stated that, if necessary, the case will be carried to the Supreme Court of the United States. ‘The limit of the law for grand larceny is imprisonment for three years in the penitentiary. —_-— POLICEMAN REMOVED. Was Charged With Neglect of Duty on Two Occasions. ‘The recommendation of Major Sylvester, the chief of police, that Private C. H. Evans of the fourth precinct be removed, to take effect the 31st instant, has been ap- proved by the Commissioners. Private Evans was reported the 9th of this month for having failed to properly patrol his beat. He admitted the charge, explaining that he left his beat ad went home to attend his sick wife. Major Syl- vester disposed of the matter then by warning the officer that a repetition of the offense would result in his dismissal. A similar violation of the rules by the oicer was reported to Major Sylvester the 22d instant, and, in recommending the man’s removal from the forces, the Major reported to the Commissioners as follows: “Strange as it may seem, this officer was reported the 1orning of October 23, 1898, for a violation of the rules similar to that with which he was charged the 9th instant. I have talked with Lieutenant Inspector Cross and Lieutenant Hollinberger con- cerning this officer, and, from what they state. it would be in the Interest of the public service if his further services were dispensed with. His record is not god, and I have shown him every fairness, as will be observed from the warning referred to. 1f a man cannot faithfully perform the duties {ncumbent upon him as an oftcer of this force and abuses my contidence. especially after sufficient warning, T would be doing the Commissioners, the public ard myself an injustice to retain him in the service.

The eminently satisfactory manner in which this comtpamy’s cab systems have erved the public jm Philadelphia and New York, where {t® reflability and reasonable rates secured at onee popular approbation, will insure for't a hearty welcome from the residents of the national capital and its host of visitors.. The service will be performed by the same high-class cabs (four-wheelers), vic- torfas and omnibuses, in the same prompt and satisfactory manner and at the same low rates which have made the systems so popular tn other cities. The vehicles are all equipped with rubber tires, and have been constructed after the most approved and serviceable designs. They are un- usually comfortable, and will be in strik- ing contrast to many of the old-time and dilapidated conveyances that have served the residents of Washington for the past two generations. The drivers will be in livery and are required to be “polite, cour- teous and prompt in their service to p sengers.” The horses have been selected with care, and while perfectly gentle and trustworthy, are young, handsome and spirited. These vehicles are intended for the use cf persons going from and to the 6th street station of the Pennsylvania railroad. They may be called by telephone to any addres: in the city for use in conveying persons to the station at the same rates as for ser- vice from the station. Such orders will re- ceive prompt attention. The drivers will be furnished with accurate maps showing the distances from the Pennsylvania rail- road station to the principal points in the city, and cards containing the rates of fare will be found in the vehicle: This cab service has been established in pursuance of a joint resolution approved by Congress on June 7, 1898, which author- ized the Commissioners of the District of Columbia to locate a cab service in con- nection with the railroad stations. The Pennsylvania Railroad Company is the only one which has taken advantage of this privilege. The District Commissioners have amended the police regulations to provide exclusive space for these cabs at the 6th station, and the railroad company nd its awning shed on B street to cover the space occupied by the cabs. The Pennsylvania Railroad Company will place in service on November 1 about twenty of its new vehicles, but this num- ber will be increased to twenty-eight as fast as they can be constructs This new cab service will throughout with the promptness, efficiency and thoroughness: characteristic of th Pennsylvania railroad, and it will provid for the people of Washington a reasonable and reliable means of transfer between their homes or hotels’and the Pennsylvania railroad station, and will adequately serve the thousands of visitors who are attracted to the national capital. It is the intention of the railroad company to provide Wash- ington with as fine a cab service performed as pre- vails in any other city of the country, and, if possible, make it superior to that in London or Paris. ~— Beat N.
