AFFAIRS IN ALEXANDRIA Oouncil Considers and Refers to Committee Draft of Curfew Law. Forbidding Young People From Fre- quenting Streets at Night—Gen- eral and Personal News. Evening Star Bureau, No. 701 King Street, Bell Telephone No. 106, ALEXANDRIA, Va., March 14, 1900. The city council held its regular semi- monthly meeting last evening, when vari- ous matters of interest to citizens generally were given consideration. In the absence of President John H. Strider of the lower board, Councilman Hubert Snowden was called to the chair. As forecasted in The Star yesterday, an ordinance was intro- duced the provisions of which were simi lar to those of the ancient “curfew law. It stipulated that all persons under the age of sixteen years should be required to return to their homes within fifteen min- utes after the ringing of the curfew bell. It was further provided that in the event of any such person being found on the street after the bell had tolled, unaccom- panied by parents or guardians, the per- son so found would be considered gullty of a misdemeanor, and would be Hable to a fine of not less than $1 nor more than $5. Children sent for a physician or to secure the necessaries of life are exempted from the operation of the ordinance. It was also provided that the chief of olice shall cause the Columbia engine rouse bell to be rung at 8 o'clock p.m. from October 1 to March 31, and at 9 o'clock p.m. from April 1 to September 30, fifteen strokes being the signal each day. According to rules the ordinance was re- ferred to the committee on general laws for report. Prohibiting Signs on Poles. A report was received from the commit- tee on general laws, recommending the pas- sage of an ordinance prohibiting the plac- ing of signs or advertisements on the tele- graph or telephone poles in the city, and providing a penalty or not less than $5 nor more than $20 fine for each offense. An amendment was proposed directing that the city engineer have all signs and advertise- ments now displayed on poles torn off, and, as amended, the resolution was adopted accompanied by an appropriation of $235 for the work. The committee on streets recommended that $000 be appropriated to gravel a twen- ty-foot roadway on Duke street from West street to the Stone bridge. It was also recommended that the city attorney be di- rected to prepare an ordinance providing for the placing of gutters on each side of that street. Pending an inquiry into the cost of macadamizing the street the mat- ter went over. The joint committee on Jight, finance and general laws submitted a report recom- mending the creation of the office of super- intendent of gas at a salary of $1,000 per annum, the term of office to be two years, beginning May 1. The ordinance was adopted. A communication was received from Au- ditor Price, notifying council that the ap- propriation for outdoor poor, fire depart- ment and other kindred branches had been exhausted. This, with a bill from Corpora- tion Attorney Boothe for $5 for preparing an ordinance, was referred to the finance committee. A petition from the Co-Opera- tive Charities Association asking that suit- able laws be made for the relief of worthy poor was referred to the committee on gen- eral laws. Appropriations Made. The sum of $200 was appropriated for a flag crossing at the intersection of Queen and Alfred streets, and the sum of $250 was appropriated to place the necessary catch basins and sewer connections at Prince and Pitt streets, Prince and Patrick streéts and Prinee and Henry streets. Further appropriations of $150 to cut 10 feet of flagging-and 300 feet of curbing from the canal locks, and of $100 to remove earth and clay from the city’s banks at the canal locks, were also made. It was recom- mended by the committee on public prop- erty that vitrified brick pavement be laid in front of the Columbia engine house on St. Asaph street, the work to cost about $240. The recommendation was adopted. The sum of $125 was appropriated for the construction of a terra cotta sewer in an alley between Royal and Pitt streets. The following matters coming under the head of new business wera referred to the committee on streets: A_resolution appro- priating $80 for a pipe gutter at Fairfax and Jefferson streets; a resolution appropri- ating $350 to repair Cameron street from Columbus to Alfred streets; a resolution appropriating $350 to repair Duke street from Columbus to Alfred streets; a resolu- tion appropriating $175 to repair gutters at Prince and Pitt, Prince and Patrick and Prince and Columbus streets. The resolution introduced by Mr. Evans at a former meeting of council to compel the Washington Southern and Southern railroad companies to place watchmen at the Payne and Wolf street crossing was adopted. Arranging for Census. United States Census Agent Campbell has arranged for dividing this city into eight census districts. The districts will be dis- tributed as follows: Two in the first ward, one In the second ward, three in the third ward and two in the fourth ward. The di- vision will be mad> by lines running from east to west. Wilkes street will divide the first ward, Pendleton and Queen streets the third ward and Wolf street the fourth ward. It 1s expect2d that the census will show a large increase in the population ef Alexan- dria for the past ten years. In 1890 it was slightly over 14,000. Death of Union Veteran. Mr. John G. Wiley died last night at his residence in Fairfax county, near th3 Theo- logical Seminary, after a protracted Illness. Deceased was about sixty-five years of age. His wife and several grown children survive him. Mr. Wiley was a veteran of the Union army. He came to Virginia shortly after the civil war, and in recent years made his home near this city, where he was well known and respected. Charged With Serious Offense. William Windsor 1s locked up at police headquarters on complaint of a colored man named H. Thompson. Thompson claims that his sloop was burned Monday last in the Potomac, off Sandy Point, and that be- fore It was destroyed it was robbed of its rigging. He charges Windsor with the crime. Sergeant Smith and Officer Young, who made the arrest, recovered a quantity of the rigging on the river shore below this city. The prisoner will be given a hearing before Mayor Simpson tomorrow morning, and if the charge is sustained he will prob- ably ba turned over to the Maryland au- thorities. General Matters, Mr. Leonard Marbury, chairman of the democratic committee for the eighth con- gressional district of Virginia, has issued a call for a meeting of his committee in this elty the 2ist Instant, when the time and place for holding a convention to nominats @ candidate for the House of Representa- Uves will be decided upon. The funeral of Mrs. Elizabeth Langolf, wife of Mr. Benjamin J. Langolf, took place this morning from St. Mary's Catholic Church, Rey. Father H. J. Cutler officiat- ing. The interment was made in St. Mary's cemetery. The meeting of the board of police com- missioners, which was called for last night, was postponed, as a quorum did not appear at the hour named for tha meeting. The commissioners will consider the question as to whether members of may actively engage in politics. Rev. Nelson P. Dame of Winchester, Va., is conducting a mission dt St. Paul's Epis: copal Church, which will continue for sey- eral days. _—s—_—_ Representative Cromer Renominated. George W.

STREET LINES. Postmaster to Contemplate Adand t of the System. At the rej eeting of the Mount Pleasant Citidegs’¥ Association, held last night at the Stratford Hotel, Mr. Abram Fry, from a special committee on mail fa- cilities, reported that the city postmaster has promised ;eagly delivery of mail on Howard avenue, but that he is opposed to placing a mail-car on the i4th street rail- way line. Tnp pifstmaster, said Mr. Fry, believes that if cars on street railway lnes are mor® @ detriment than a benefit, and that he iggerigusly considering the pro- priety of doing away with them. Upon the motfon' of Mr. A. L, Leonard a committee of tleé was appointed to draft a bill similar to the District Commissioners’ Columbia road extension measure, provid- ing for the widening of 14th street from Sheridan avenue to Spring road, and have it introduced int Congress. Messrs. Leon- Thomas Blagden and B. W. Holman Were named as the committee. Mr. Thomas Blagden, replying to an in- quiry, stated that there is not the slightest doubt that the required number of owners for the dedication of land in the line of 16th street willbe secured in a few days, and that the necessary condemnation pro- ceedings will soon be instituted. Upon the motion of Mr. J. A. Watson a committee of w1ree was appointed to draft and have Introduced in Congress a bill permitting property owners to establish building lines without being required to dedicate land to.the District. Messrs. Wat- son, T. A. Harding and H. H. Twombly, the latter being the president of the associt tion, were named on the committee. Mr. A. B. Chatfield having stated that he id been informed that two robberies on Howard avenue had lately been attempt- ed, and that more police officers are seen in an eating house on 14th street near Park, than on the streets, it was decided to invite the attention of the authorities to the necessity for better police protection. One member suggested that in view of Mr. Chatfield's information, it might be well for the better protection: of residents on Howard avenue. to establish one or more eating houses thereon. A resolution, offered by Mr. B. W. Hol- man, was adopied, declaring Mr. Louis P. Shoemaker to-be the association's choice for the position of District Commissioner. The resolution was so amended, however, az to make it appear that the candidacy was indorsed only in the event of the Presi- dent deciding not to reappoint the present civil Commissioners, the association dis- claiming any 4dntention of antagonizing elther of the incumbents. Mr. Shoemaker is a member of the association and presi- heed of the Brightwood Citizens’ Associa- jon. Upon the motion of Mr. Stephan, the asso- ciation adopted a resolution thanking the District Commissioners for ordering a ce- ment walk round the Johnson public school. The association adopted a resolution at a recent meeting of the ColumbiaHeights Citi- zens’ Association, protesting against the divesting of the public parks for elther pub- Uc or private uses. PENALTY, Ministers Ask for Rigid Enforcement of Local Option Law. Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. ROCKVILLE, Md., March 13, 1900. It is stated that during the session of the March term,of the circult court, which convenes here next Monday, the ministers of Montgomery country will wait upon the Judges and request them to impose the maximum penalty in each case of a viola- tion of the local option law. Invitations to joln the delegation have been extended to the ministers. of all denominations, and it {s understood that nearly all of them will accept. It is claimed that in a large number of cases heretofore minimum fines have been imposed, which, it is alleged, are Not sufficiently heavy to prevent violations of the law. x ip thought if the court will let 4t be known! that the maximum penalty (3800 or imprisonritent in the house of cor- rection for six months), will hereafter be imposed in egch cage, it will have the ef- fect of causing. the law to be strictly ob- served.

The wheels of republican politics are be- ginning to revolve in the county, and the arrangements for party primaries and con- ventions will soon be under way. The county sends delegates this year to a Qi: trict convention, which nominates a can- didate for Congress, delegates to a district convention to choose district delegates to the national cenvention and delegates to a state convention. On the issues that are likely to mark the campaign this year it 1s generally expected that Montgomery county will be very close. The republicans are handicapped very much in the county by the absence of a county republican news- Las gin This want has been felt by the re- publicans for @& good many years, but none so much as now, and there {s a good deal of talk about the establishment of a party paper here. Rev. Edward Moore, pastor of the colored Methodist nunghes at Rockville and Emor; Grove, this county, through his attorney, J. ‘Alby Henderson, today instituted suit in the circult court hére against Horace Sedgwick, a well-known colored man of this com- munity, claiming damages in the sum of $2,000 for slander. It is alleged that Sedg- wick made statements reflecting upon Moore's honor. The annual statement of the condition of the Jefferson Club of Gaithersburg, this county, shows an active membership ‘of twenty-three and forty-seven honorary members. The brary, which the president of the club, Rey. James L. Lodge, hopes to make one of the finest in ths state, now has 1,577 volumes, an increase of 838 within the past year. Alexander Corn, Alonzo Hall and Howard Hall, all colored, of the vicinity of German- town, this county, have been lodged in jail here, charg2d with malicious destruction of Property belonging to Mr. W. F. Pumphtey of near Germantown. It {s claimed they destroyed some. growing wheat by walking across the field-while the ground was soft. It is said that within the next few days a d2legation will visit Annapolis to urge the Montgomery deljegation in the legislature to attempt the enactment of legislation that ey repeal the existing local option law, or all8w the peopie:of the county to again vote or.
