Effie Johnson, a colored woman who told of a number of Injuries she had suffered during the eight years of her married life, caused the arrest of her husband, Arthur Johnson, recently on a charge of making threats against her. “T admit I have assaulted Effie several times,” said her husband to Judge Kimball yesterday, “ “but I'm innocent this | tim “He's always threatening me,” the wife declared, “and he has been carrying an open knife to bed with him to cut me. Monday he said if I had him arrested he would kill me when he gets out of prison."" “He's the kind of a man who ought to be kept locked up,” the judge remarked. A sentence of three months in default of security to keep the peace was imposed, ae gees Threatened His Mother. John Murphy was reported in Judge Kim- ball’s court today for threats against his mother. The latter told of her sad experi- ences with John, and the judge required him to give security im the sum of $300 or go to jail for sixty days. Handwriting Gave Him Away. William Dorsey, colored, was arrested yesterday by Detective Muller on a charge of larceny. He was found with a bicycle that had been stolen from L. A. Delwig. His claim was that he bought {t from a man on the street, and he showed a receipt which he sald the man had given him.

Harry Allen, alias Johnson, colored, en- tered a plea of guilty in the Police Court today to a charge of stealing a storm cover belonging to R. N. Smith. He was convict- ed of a charge of carrying a razor. Judge Kimball gave him four months in jail in both cases. —_.__ Boys in a Row. There was some excitement on Nichols avenue near the Hillsdale School Tuesday evening caused by a fight between white boys and colored boys. In the hurling of missiles a colored girl of about five years, named Handy, was hit by a stone on the head, making it bleed profusely. Special Officer Lew: colored, was called to the scene and sequently brought a white boy named Fowler, who lives at Congress Heights, to the Anacostia police station, but he was not held. The colored boys, it is said, are in the habit of oS white boys who bass along the road. —_+—_—_. Convicted of Murdero Assault. Willim H.

Why the Eastern League Dropped Washington and Baltimore. Some interesting facts leaked out at last night's meeting of the Eastern Base Ball League in New York respecting the Wash- ington and Baltimore franchises and their rejection by the Eastern League. One of them is that the National League, believing 1: had the Eastern League In a corner and could squeeze it, demanded of the company | which Barnie tried to organize in Balti- more, the sum of $14,900 for rent, taxes, im- provements, ete., on Union Park as a con- dition precedent to the playing of a single game in that city under National League protection. The National League got the Eastern League to announce the acquisi- tion of Baltimore and Washington to Its credit before making the final terms which Frank Robison believed the Eastern League would be compelled to accept. Pat Powers was even shrewder than the National League's circuit_cammittee, for, while dick- ering with Robison and his’ friends, he was laying pipes for the re-establishment of Barnie in Hartford and for the rejec- ton of the National League's magnanimous offer. Barnie was seen last night and sald of the Baltimore affair: “The episode shows the character of the National League magnates. ‘They became friendly with Ban Johnson In the west because Johnson went in for a big fight with them. The Eastern League, which has been the National's ally, was lt~ erally held up for a sum that was prohibi- tive because of our friendship. I believe that with the company I formed in Balti- more I could have given the city good ball and made money, but not on the terms which the National League demanded when they imagined we were anxious to put clubs in Baltimore and Washington. I re- gret the failure of my plans, but I have little sympathy with the National League in its failure to hold us up. Incidentally, there will be no ball in Baltimore or Was! ington this year under the national agree- ment.” McGraw and Robinson Still Firm. Robinson and McGraw, the well known players of Baltimore, took a run to At- Jantic City yesterday. They did not give any reason for the trip, but it was stated that they had gone on business connected with semi-professional base ball playing. The National League season begins today, and Robinson and McGraw have said they would take no action until after the sea- son began with or without their being con- pected with a National League team in the eas' Late last night upon their return to Bal- timore the players said the trip to Atlantic City had been one of business outside of base ball. Mr. McGraw stated that he had received an offer of $1,000 more in salary for the season from President Frank De Haas Robison of St. Louis than formerly offered, and a similar proposition had been made to Captain Wilbert Robinson’ The offer also had a clause stating that both McGraw and Robinson should: have two days’ vacation to attend to their Balti- more business on each eastern trip of the St. Louis club. McGraw stated that he could not accept the terms to go to St. Louls, and that he had so advised Presi- dent Robison. According to this offer, McGraw would have got something like $9,500 and Robin- son about $7,500. Delehanty and Lajoie Pacified. The Philadelphia base ball team left that city last night for Boston, where it will open the National League season today. Delahanty and: Lajole left with the other players, the differences between them and the management haying been “satisfac- torily arranged.” On what basis the diffi- culty with the; twopstars was settled is not positively known, Neither would say anything. The matter was not settled until an hour before-the team left for the east. Amon Ruse Syed for Divoree. Mrs. Susan Rusie,-wife of the big New York pitcher, brought sult in Indianapolis yesterday afternoon for divorce. She charges that Risie has mistreated her and that he has begn drinking. The action fol- lowed the departure of Rusle for New York by only a few hours, his attempts at reconciliation having failed. Mrs. Rusie Says that her action in leaving him so suddenly and g¥ing to her home at Muncie was because of ‘hid conduct. Property rights are involved in the case. She asks for $5,000 alimony, ; Vardon Piaytng Fine Golf. Harry Vardon, the British open golf champion, yesterday defeated the “best ball" of two professionals—Artuhr Fenn of Poland Springs and Robert Stronner of Nassau—by a score of 8 up and 2 to play, on the new links at the Wollaston Golf Club, Wollaston, Mass. Conditions were very unfavorable for good plays. Vardon made a new record of 80 for the course, which is only two strokes below the score of A: Lockwood of the Common- wealth Geir ‘Clk, the previous record holder. In the afternoon Vardon defeated C. L. Bremer of the Wollaston ¢lub, an amateur, pea ee eye ional ; 88; Campbell, 88” pe 7) Rosslyn Golf Tournament Postponed. The rain yesterday caused a postponement of the Easter tournament of the Washing- ton Golf Club at Rosslyn. This evening an adjourned meeting of the club will be held at the club house. The meeting is called for the election of five governors. Princeton’s Handicap Games. The athletic games which will be held on Osborne Field in Princeton next Saturday will be the largest in the history of theUni- versity Athletic Association. All the stars at Yale, the University of Pennsylvania, Cornell and Columbia have been entered, ‘while entries have also been filed by the managements of Haverford, Johns Hopkins, Lawrenceville and the Princeton Prepar- atory School, Pennington Seminary, Rut- cr and the Central High School of this clty. The program will consist of the usual thirteen events, the most interesting of which will undoubtedly be the two-mile race between Orton, the old Pennsylvania run- ner; Alex. Grant of Pennsylvania and Capt. Cregan of Princeton. Schedule for Old The members of the Potomac Homing Pigeon Club of South Washington met Tuesday night and arranged the following schedule for the old bird races for the year Bird Races. 190): The 100-mile, from Chester, Va., May 13; the 200-mile, from Kittrell, N.C., May 20; the 300-mile, from Rennert, C., June > the 500-mile, from Hardeeville, S.C., June This being a young organization, and to encourage the members many prizes from members of the Washington Federation have been offered for the best speed made in each race. PROVISION OMITTED. Attention Called to Alleged Defect in Proposed New Code. Dr. S. C. Busey, president of the Medical Society, today invited the attention of the District Commissioners, through Commis- sioner Ross, to section 1073 of the proposed code for the District relating to the testi- mony of physicians. The proposed amend- ment, {it is claimed, om}ts an important provision of the act of Congress of May 13, 189%, and incorporates a modification of the existing law which would, it is contended, open the door to the practical nullification of the whole provision. The act of 1406 is as follows: “That in the courts of the District of Co- lumbia no physician or surgeon shall be permitted, without the consent of the per- son afflicted, or of his legal representa- tive, to disclose any information, confiden- tial in its nature, which he shall have ac- quired in attending a patient in a profes- sional capacity, whether such information shall have been obtained from the patient or from his family or from the person or persons in charge of him. Provided, That this act shall not apply to evidence in crim- inal cases where the accused is charged with causing the death or inflicting injuries upon a human being, and the disclosure shall be required in the interests of public justice.” Section 1073 of the proposed code for the District reads as follows: “In the courts of the District of Colum- bia no physician or surgeon shal] be per- mitted, without the consent of the person afflicted, or of his legal representatives, to disclose any information, confidential in its nature, which he shall have acquired in at- tending a patient in a professional capac- ity, and which was necessary to enable him to act in that capacity, unless, in the opin- lon of the court, such information is neces- sary to promote the ends of justice: Pro- vided, That this section shall not apply to evidence in criminal cases where the ac- cused is charged with causing the death or inflicting injuries upon a human being, and the disclosure shall be required in the in- terests of public justice.” Commissioner Ross has suggested that the matter be referred to the attorney for the District for his opinion, and it is under- stood that such action will be taken by the Commissioners. es ESTATE OF HENRY BUSH. Caveat to His Will Filed by His Brothers. A caveat to the last will and testament of Henry Bush, deceased, who died the 2d day of March iast, was filed today by his brothers, Louis and George Bush, through their attorneys, Messrs. Wolf and Rosen- berg. They allege that the paper writing purporting to be the last will of their brother is not, in fact, his will, and that he was not at the tima of the execution of it of sound and disposing mind and memory, or in any respect capable of executing a will, and that if, in fact, the said will was made by him, it was procured by undue in- fluence, fraud and coercion exercised upon him, Henry Bush, deceased, it is ‘alleged, Was on the 18th day of March, 1894, de- clared insane, and his wife was appointed @ committee to take charge of his estate. ——— Annual Ball. The annual Easter ball of the employes of St. Elizabeth’s Asylum was given last night in the detached hall, and was largely attended. Handsome decorations were in place, and the music was by the St. Eliza- beth Home Band.

Bowlers Lead the Local League. ———————— od NATIONAL GUARD ATHLETICS KANSAS CITY, Mo., April 19.—The base ball season here was opened this afternoon, when the first game of the American League between Minneapolis and Kansas City was called at Exposition Park. Bright, warm weather and a diamond in splendid condition favored the players, and a big crowd gave them a rousing send-off. ST. LOUIS, Mo., April 19.—The National League base ball season here opened today with a game at Sportsman's Park, between the Pittsburg and St. Louis clubs. Pleasant weather favored the teams. DETROIT, Mich., April 19.—Fine spring weather greeted the opening of the Ameri- can League base ball season in Detroit this afternoon. The bright sun and brisk wind had dried out the diamond at Bennett Fark enough to put it in fair condition. Prior to the game thers was a parade of the Detroit and Buffalo players, headed by a band and accompanied by city officials of Detroit and Windsor and invited guests. NEW YORK, April 19.—A heavy rain all mght and in the early morning hours threatened to cause a postponement of the opening game of the base ball season today. In the forenoon, however, the sun came cheerfully out, making an ideal spring day, end the prospects are that the New Yorks and the Brooklyns will only have damp sod to bother them when they meet on the Polo grounds this afternoon. Amos Rusie is ex- pected to arrive from Indianapolis in time for the game, but probably will not be put in the box. The program is that Carrick will pitch for the New Yorks and Brooklyn will try Kennedy. Emslie will umpire. LEAGUE SEASON OPENS. Race Likely to Be Between Brooklyn, Boston and St. Louis. The opening games of the National Base Ball League will be played today, weather permitting, in Boston, New York, Cincin- nati and St. Louis. For the first time in many years, Washington and Baltimore will occupy seats in the gallery and content themselves as spectators. All the writers have apparently come to the conclusion that the reduction of the circuit will be a big thing for the national game, but the public is very fickle and suspicious and may take offense at the high-handed way its favorite sport has been dealt with. Should this fickleness and suspicion crys- talize into positive antagonism the National League will have a tale of woe to tell be- fore the leaves begin to turn in the fall. Sensational, winning ball is desired by y city, and the magnates who are lucky enough to own the clubs that will fin- ish in the first four should certainly make money. ue St From the present outlook the bat- between Brooklyn, Boston and 8, with Pittsburg and Philadelp . and New York, Chicago and Cin- nnati clubs fighting for tail-end hon Cincinnati is a hard losing city, and should s M the Reds hug the nd positions Brush will wish for the four clubs he instrumental in throwing out of the league to keep h 2m company. St. Louis h been-strengthened wonderfully through the addition of McGann, Donovan and Keister, nd should MeGraw and Robinson fall in line the Mound City team would simply have a walk over. Brooklyn and Boston have both been strengthened and the Pit burgs are strong individually, but Philade!- phia {s lamentably weak in the infield and on the rubber. Tim Hurst makes his reappearance as an umpire in the National League, his assign- ment carrying him to St. Louis, while O'Day goes to Cincinnati, Emslie to New York and Connolly to Boston. LEADS THE BOWLING LEAGUE. A. Team Twice Defeats the Business Men’s Club. The Young Men’s Christian Association bowling team went over to South Washing- ton iast night and met the bowlers of the Business Men's Club. The visiting team won out in two games and thereby placed themselves in the lead of the league teams, drawing out of the tle which held them to the Saengers and Golden Eagles. The association boys now have an excel- lent opportunity for the championship. They finished their serles last night and have no more games to play, so the team must stand on its record and with the hope that none of the others will pull up to them. Last night’s games were but fairly well played, the home team making a good score in the first event and playing poorly thereafter. The visitors won the second game through luck, so far as their total Is concerned, and the last through good bowl- ing. Doyle was the only association man to continue through the match in good form, and he secured three excellent games, Miller supported him well, but the others were uncertain quantities. Fuller and Mil- ler did well for the home team, with Kidd close to them. Smithson had an off night, but that he ts one of the best of South Washington’s bowlers is an undisputed fact. The Business Men jumped in front at the outset of the first game and were never headed. The visiting club played rather poorly, and but for a first-class finish by Miller’ and Doyle the team score would have been an exceptionally low one. The ¥.
