Henry Yates Satterlee, yesterday visited Grace Church, on 32d street below M street, and administered the rite of confirmation. A class of nineteen, which had been under the instructions of the pastor of the church, Rev. Edward D. Johnson, was confirmed according to the ritual of the church. The exercises were held at the morning service, commencing at 11 o'clock. In honor of the occasion the church was prettily deco- rated, and an unusually large congregation witnessed the ceremonies. Edward Norrew, colored, aged twenty- two, went out the Conduit road yesterday on his bicycle and stayed later than usual. Shortly before 9 o'clock Policeman McGill Grove of the bicycle squad caught sight of him coming down M street at a good rate of speed, without a light on his bicycle. The rider was overhauled and taken to the station on a charge of violating the po- lice regulations. This morning in the Po- lee Court a fine of $ was imposed, in de- fault of which a sentence of fifteen days in thé workhouse was given. ‘The funeral of Mrs. Margaret Wood, an old resident of this place. took place this morning from Trinity Church.

A committee from the Washington Monu- yment Association wil? meet a council com- mittee this afternoonsfor the purpose of urging a favorable report on the petition for a transfer of the city’s interest in the ald court house property on North Colum- bus street. The petition was made several months ago, but no action on the matter has yet been taken. The association secks to acquire the half square comprised in the court house property as a site for the erec- tion of the proposed Washington monu- ment. Alexandria county also has an in- terest in the tot, but it is said the authori- ties there would probably be-willing to fol- low the lead of the city in donating its share to the association. Prominent among the reasons which the members ofthe association advance In sup- port of thelr petition is that goverrmmental aid ts likely ta be conditioned on scme action favorable to the movement by the Alexandria city council. That body will meet tomorrow night, when it is probable the matter will be reported on and definite action taken.

There will, however, be, as usual, an ample supply of shad and other things deemed es- sential to the success of such an occasion. Every member of the Senate and the House will be invited, as well as a number of gov- ernment officials. The committee of the board in charge of the affair consists of Cuno H.

This is deemed necessary. be- cause it is planned to have each member of the board act as special escort to one of the guests, and such an arrangement could not be made unless the secretary of the board has definite information as to members who will go on the excursion. —_.__— ALMOST INSTANTLY KILLED. Colored Man the Victim of a Railway Accident. ¢ William Carter. colored, who lived at Montello, was struck by a Baltimore and Ohio ral!road train near Ivy City about 7:30 o'clock Saturday night, and almost in- stantly killed. The body was brought to the morgue in the dead wagon. Coroner Carr deemed an inquest unnecessary, it be- ing shown the affair was an accident for which the victim was probably responsible. Carter waS about twenty-six years old, and was employed in the city with a fish huckster. When he had fintshed his week's Work he made a few purchases and started for home. He was walking north on the track between Ivy City and Montello, when he was struck by a south-bound car and thrown to the side of the track. John Bas- sett, a resident of Ivy City, picked up the injured man and was arranging to ye a doctor called, but he died before medical at- tention could be procured. An examination of the body showed that the man’s skull had been crushed, but that no other injuries had been sustained.
