Roughs Attack an Officer.

Yesterday afternoon about $3.50 Officer
Jefiries, of the sixth district precinct, OBJ
served some colored men attempting to beat
white boy on street, between Eleventh
and Twelfth street northwest. He told them
to desist, when one of them made some de-
risive remark, and the officer arrested
him. His companions sprang upon the Off
Ger, releasing his captive. One of them had
razor in his hand as if to cut the officer,
when Mr.. Jetfries drew his revolver and at
tempted to use il, but in the struggle it was
wrested from him, as also was his badge.
The three roughs, after releasing their COM
panion, ran away, leaving the officer in the
street, where with their combined efforts,
they had thrown him. Mr.. Jeflries recovered
his pistol from drug store corner of Ninth
and p streets, where a lady had left it, but did
not get his badge. officer Duvall, of the fifth
precinct, about 4:30, arrested William Carter
on suspicion Of being one of the three men
When taken to the station 'he confessed he
was and todthe names Of the other two, who
will be captured to-day. The officer was moi
at all hurt.

who Shall Take Bail.

Yesterday afternoon Mr.. Charles Pelham
called the attention of Judge snellto the case
of one of his clients David r, Smith, who was
committed for forgery a few days ago, and
held in default of $500 bail. Mr.. Pelham
stated that Judge Wylie refused bail in the
morning, informing him that the police court
was the proper place for bail to be given be-
fore the finding of an indictment. He there
fore offered bail, but Judge Smell re-
fused to take it, saying Judge Wyle
was wrong, there being nothing for the police
court to act upon, the papers having been
sent to the criminal court. Mr., Pelham per-
sisted in his application, stating that they
could give BAIL and wanted TO give it, but
had been sent from tho criminal court there
Judge Smell refused to take bail, remarking
in answer to Mr.. Pelham that he was su.
preme in the police court. Mr. Pelham left
the court, having had the unusual experience
with a lawyer of having q client in Jail on an
ordinary bailable oflense, and with good bail
to offer, yet refused because neither court was
inclined to take IL.

If were able to attend your meeting ! would
urge THIS measure, and would introduce resulu-
lions urging this and the repeal of the Law that
authorizes the coinage of the silver dollar and ms
ior that matter Of all the fractional parts thereof
There is no pretense that the silver dollar is worth
Hs metaD anything like its face value, and the
fractional parts are still more depreciated as COM
pared with the gold coins of this or auy other
country. In truth, the silver coins of our country
are simply tokens. Now. II tokens are TO be used
as currency In lieu of full, face value coin, then
inc cheaper and more convenient paper token OF
tue government should be issued Us heretofore
The substitution of the fractional silver tokens for
the former paper ones costs the people OF the
United States over three millions dollars In gold
annually.
You will recollect that the government borrowed
,StbW mons m d dollars % q vs per cent nteFqi @ &

Qfthe fractional paper currency over a million

The boarding of the deprecated silver dollars

AnoIIn GIcn club Concert.

A rare musical treat is expected at the Con-
gregatonal church next Tuesday evening,
February 10, in the shape of the first concert
OF the Apollo club for this season. These
forty young gentlemen have been practicing
and making arrangements for several weeks
in order to .givea concert that will surpasss
talent. An orchestra Of forty trained musi-
clans will participate in the programme, and
Nine. Annie ROemer-Kaspar and Mr.. A. ID.
Woodruff have been engaged as soloists, The
latter is the leading tenor Of the we'll known
Mendelssohn club of New York, and recently
sang the tenor solos in the Messiah" as rem
dered by the famous DIR. Damrosch and the
Oratorio society. The Apollo club deserves
great credit and n very crowded house, and il
Is safe to say that no one will go away from
the concert disappointed. An advertisement

The same provisions as to protection Of the
tracks are also provided in the case OF the
Baltimore and Ohio railway. As the bill has
been prepared at the request Of the senate
committee, it is probable that
THERE WILL RE 80 DELAY
in its consideration by that body, and IL is
earnestly hoped that it may speedily become
n law, and the vcxcd question as to what
shall be done with the railways permanently
settled. The plans proposed in the bills in
vovo less expense than in the union depot
project, and on that account the opposition of
the companies which will of course be bitter,
will have less force and weight. The passage
of tho bill will redeem the beautiful park,
which the Baltimore and Potomac tracks and
depots have partially destroyed, and Will
prove of decided benefit TO the property in
its north front, which has for years been de-
preciating in value mainly on account of the
railway company. In regard to the Balti-
more and Ohio railway, the removal of its
depot will enable the filling up of tho square
now occupied by its tracks, and repair the
break in New Jersey avenue which its depot
now makes.
