BONA-FIDE CIRCULATION, A reference to the statement be- low will show that the circulation sworn to is a bona fide one. It fs easily possible for a news- paper with an elastic conscience to swell its legitimate circulation enor- mously, in order to deceive adver- users, by sending out thousands of papers to newsstands, which are re- turnable, and which are in fact re- turned, but nevertheless are in- cluded in what purports to be an honest statement of circulation. Intelligent advertisers, however, judge by results, and bogus circul: tions don’t give them. The family circulation of The Star is many thousands in excess of any other Washington paper.

CONFIDENCE OF FOREIGNERS The work of the republican congressional committee is now practically completed and tomorrow Mr. Babcock, the chairman, will leave for his home tn Wisconsin. where his friends will at once begin to push him as a candidate for the senatorship from that state. There are three or four other candi- dates for the senatorship In Wisconsin, but prominent republicans here express a be- lief that Mr. Babcock will be elected with but little opposition when the legislature meets early next January. His long and successful service for his party, It is be- lieved, will be recognized by the people of his state when the time comes for the legislature to elect a successor to Senator Mitchell. A Period of Business Prosperity. Mr. Babcock believes that a period of great business prosperity is in store fur the country. During the past two or three days there nas been a decided rise n many listed stocks, and it is believed a eontinued stiffening of prices will take place. “When it is fully understood abroad,’ sid Mr, Babcock, in reply to @ question by a ‘ reporter this morning, “that the Ser- ate and House have a majority for sound mroney, and that the Senate cannot be changed in this respect for at least eight years, ther2 will be a movement toward the purchase of American securities that will bring a very large amount of money to this country.” Ever since the free silver agitation began in this country with propordcns threatened the suce of tree there has been a gradual moveme 101 foreign investors to get rid of the:r Ame an securities.

WAS A VETERAN OF THR CIVIL WAR For Thirty Years a Practitioner in This City. ACTION OF BAR ASSOCIATION Colonel Enoch Totten ¢ied last evening at his residence, 1708 I strect northwest. The news came to a large proportion of his friends and acquaintances with the shock of a painful surprise, as it was not generally known that a fatal termination of bis illness was imminent. Colonel Totten has not been a well man for several years past. His iliness beg: with an attack of the grip four or five years ago, and while he was in the south, later, he had an attack of malarial fever, from which he never recovered. He was taken sick some two weeks ago with symp- toms of paralysis, which it was hoped might be averted, but this anticipation was not realized and the end came last night shortly after 11 o'clock. Colonel Totten was one of the most prom- inent as well as popular members of the District bar, a position he had held for nearly thirty year: He was eminent as a counsellor and as an advo and in addition his priiliant conversational powers sus figure in every sted for his witty de him a conspie- ocial circle. He remarks, both in cc in private conversation, and same time the solidity of his legal edge, his judgment and 7 ability in con- ognized both by the nd en and the pub!

They begin ras ase in the year 1861 and enemy in th At the in the yea are resumed again in the year 1865. He idly geined a leading position at this bar, and his many admira qualitic brought about him a wide circle of friends. We accepted the position of corporation counsel under the old municipal govern ent, in which he continued for two year nd it was the only public office he held ing his career. The fact was that his professicn demanded all of his time, and his success through more than thirty years of an actiy: practice in this city testifies to his devotion to his work. There were few men capable of such long- continued effort as was Col. Totten, and » who knew him intimately were at the amount of work which he per . He was a man who seldom ed on others, but looked after the de- tails himself, He was corporation couns in 1870, and four years later he was mad counsel of the Washington and George- town Railroad Company, a position which he held up to a y2ar ago. In 1876 he was appointed counsel for the Pennsylvania railroad,-and continued as such up to the day of his death. Tn addition, he was largely employed as counsel for western railroads, and had an extensive practice before the United States Supreme Court, Heewas also the represen- tative of the First National Bank of New York city and counsel for a number of insurance companies. Col. Totten was one of the founders of the Bar Association of the District, and was also one of the incorporators of the Army and Navy Club and a member of the Metropolitan Club. He was also a mem- ber of the Loyal Legion. He married a daughter of the late Judge T. 0. Howe of Wisconsin, who was a distinguished mem- ber of the Senate and also Postmaster Gen- eral in the administration of President Arthur. Mrs. Totten and three children— Howe Totten, Gerald Totten and Edith Tot- ten—survive him. ‘As only on2 court was in session at the city hall today, no announcement was made of the death of Col. Totten The Bar As- sociation will probably take ection upon the death of the distinguished barrister Monday, when it is also expected the offi- cial notice will be givan in all of the Dis- trict courts. The Funer: Funeral services will be held at 11 o'clock Tuesday morning at All Souls’ Church, 14th and L streets, Rev. Robert Collyer of- ficlating. Interment will be in Rock Creek cemetery, The pallbearers have not yet been findily selected. —_.—_—_ Robs Her Father. Moses Kenner, an aged colored man, re- ported about 2:40 o'clock this afternoon to Inspector Mattingly that he had been rob- bed by his daughter Lydia of $36, all the money he had, which had been sent to him by his son, a soldier in Cub: Detective Gallaher, who was assigned to the case, in Jess than ten minutes, aad the girl under arrest. He found her at the sixth street depot, where she had purchased a ticket for Pittsburg. is The case will probably be heard Monday. The old man declined to prosecute his daughter, but the police authorities will ia- sist upon a presentation of the case to the court. ELECTION BETS IN COURT it of Attachment Served to Secure Possession of the Money. Proceedings tituted as a Means of Collecting Alleged Debit Un- der a Judgment. There are two election bets, made in Washington the first part of the week, | which will probably never be paid. Pe haps they m be after a battle in the | courts, but at any rate matters have been so arranged that at least one of the par- ties to the election compacts will never feel the weight of his good, hard pin again. Mr. J. Miller Kenyon, the attorney secured a writ of attachment yesterday af- ternoon in the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia against Mr. Wilbur W. Marm duke, the ticket broker in the National Ho- > writ was issued ona judgment se- cured by the Bellis Cycle Co. against Mr. Marmaduke,trading as the Washington Cy cle Company, December 4, 1806, and rema ing unpaid. The total amount of the judg- Ment was $1,525.57 with interest on $i87.50 from June 4, 1886, to date, and on $1,338.07 from September 18, 1896, The writ was served on M Oren € Staples of the nal Hotel, who, it is alleged, acted as keholder for Mr. Marmaduke and a betting companion. The Writ Served. Armed with the attachment, a United Siat iy marshal went to the Nation- al Hotel and served the writ upon Mr ples, who is p or of the host taching th y Moneys in the posses- sion of the hotel deposited by Marmaduke as a pledge or security on an election bet. It is understood that about $600 is in the safe at the hi Ss made by Mr. Marmaduke a ne being on the New York gubernatorial contest, the other m the polities! complexion of the tj United States House of Representative or about the hotel and in bet- circles has it that the amount of mentioned was wagered, one-half up by the ticket broker and the y friends with whom the bets were Until Mr. Staples makes answer to prrogatories contained in the attach- iowever, this cannot be definitely de- cided.

Condem dings again: the money taken in any ev before it can be collected by the marshal. 7 Mr. Kenyon's Statement. “I saw in The Star on election day wher Mr. Marmaéuke had posted a wager in the safe of the National Hotel,” said Mr. Ken- yen to a reporter for T ar this afte noom “and at once decided ach st his share of the money. bet an illegal contract as is well neither ar could enforce The stakeholders would compelied hand over at least Marmaduke’s por! the money dep | and in case he has won, as I understand s, then all the money must be broui to court and we will proceed against it.

Mr. Kenyon’s undersianding of the bets are that Mr. Marmaduke had the toosevelt end of the New York election nd also the winning side of the House wager, he having bet it would be republi- can. He was noi ec s to this, how- ever, and Mr. Marmaduke could not be seen. —_——— LAWYERS IN ARGUMENT. Hearing of the Motion to Grant John Price a New Trial in Progress. The motion for a new t John Price, who was nal Court No. 1 some charge of grand larceny theft of a sate! 30 last, containing I in the case of convicted in Crim time ago of the in the alleged el in the Vatoldi cafe March $1,4%0 belonging about to the M n Railroad Company, was argued this morning before Chief Jus- tice Bingham of the District Supreme Court.

The jury might move its headquarters, but the court was stationary. In the case of Martin Thorn, the notori- ous New York murderer, Mr. Davis said the jury was allowed to visit tle scene of th tragedy, unaccompanied by attorneys « either side of the or by the accused. The question was argued at length in the New York courts, taken to the supreme court of the state, each tribunal holding the jury had the right to visit the scene of the crime and that it was not necessary for the accused to be present on such an occasion.
