selling Liquor to Minors.


The United States Marine Corps was
again numerously represented Ia the audi
ence at the Police Court this morning.
They were present in connection with the
case of Ellen Fitzgerald, charged with keep
ing an unlicensed bar at 904 Eighth street
southeast, in which the sensational evil
dence of boys belonging to the Marine
Band was heard yesterday, in which they
stated that they bought whisky at the de-
PENDANTS place.
This place has been a great source of
trouble to the barracks, and Major Hous-
ton, who commands the post, has COM
planned to the police of the place.
The Government this morning put on the
stand 16-year.old band boy named Ed
ward Steele, LIZ Fifth street northeast, who
stated that he had drank whisky in the de-
PENDANTS place. He also stated that he
drank beer there and ran an account in the
place.
Sergeant Lindner was called for the de-
tense, to prove that the boy Collins had
been court-martialed. His Honor ruled
out the testimony on this point. He sworo
that he had bought beer by the schooner"
his knowledge was when Mrs. Fitz was lib
eral enough to give it to the boys.
His testimony was then directed to con-
tradict Mrs. Collins, the mother of Willie
Collins, who swore out the warrant against
the defendant, and who stated yesterday
that she drank both beer and whisky with
the witness for the purpose of getting evil
dence against the place.
lie swore that he drank three rounds of
beer. with tho lady and he paid for them.
The lady got drink of whisky, but he did
not pay for that.
Several corporals sergeants and privates
were put on the stand to testify to the
character of the boy Collins for truth and
veracity.
The defendant took the stand in her
own defense. She said she was tho widow
OF soldier and was a tailoress by trade.
The boys were In the habit of bringing
clothes to her to alter, and they also bought
cigarettes and cigars. She treated the boys
to punch on Christmas and New Years
and often loaned them money.
She denied that she ever sold whisky in
less quantity than pint, and never 10
any quantity to q boy.
The defendant stated that Mrs. Collins
drank three bottles of beer and then the
whisky. She said when going out that
she had made mash on the Sergeant. Wit
ness said that she (Mrs. Collins) had better
taste than the Sergeant.
Lieutenant of Police Boteler was called
to contradict Sergeant of Marines Boyle
who testified that he never gave a fctitiou;
name to the police.
Mr.. Boteler stated that Boyle gave his
name as Harry O'Donnell. He also stated
that he paid for the whisky Mrs. Collins
drank. The witness also stated that he re-
ported the conduct of Sergeant Lindner Ia
Major Houston.
Mr.. d. L. Cahill made long argument
for the defense.
Prosecuting-Attorney Padgett said this
calls for the severcst penalty.
Judge Smell commented on the bad fea.
lures Of the case and said he was induced
after the appearance made by the defend.
ant on the WItness-stand, TO let her off on

RAPID STRIDES.

Progress Made by iha Govern.
meDt In the Manufacture of Ord.
nance.
The greatest achievement ever accom-
plished by this country in tho manufacture
of modern ordnance has by some reason or
accident never boon made public. Recent
tests of n rihed steel gun at the expert
mental station, at Annapolis, show that
tho Government has made some rapid
strides in the manufacture of modern ord
nance.
The gun in question is one of the lot
ordered for the new steel cruisers, aud was
built in the ordnance shops in the Navy
Yard here. 1t is fifteen feet long and six
inch calibre. 1t is the first steel gun over
made by the Government and the second
over possessed by it. The other is also a
six-inch steel rifle of the same length, and
was purchased from the South Boston Iron
Works.
Tho latter, before the new one arrived
at.the battery, was tho best gun in the pos
session of the Army or Navy, and will
send a shot with nearly twice the force as
an iron gun of the same calibre. Tho new
gun has been discharged over 200 times in
the presence of a board of officers and 1t
has been found TO be far superior to the
other. Naval circles are highly elated
over their success, and the gun is by far
the best in the possession Of the Govern
ment. 1t Is masterpiece of workmanship
and reflects great credit on Mai or Powell,
Chief of Ordnance, and his able and efii-
cient assistants and mechanics.
The patent IS owned by the Government,
and is of the most approved breech loading
rifed steel gun. The ordnance shops in
the Navy-Yard in this city are the largest
and best-equipped and manned of any In
the country, aud the majority of the steel
cannon for the now cruisers will have to be
built here. The greatest difficulty experi-
enced so far is in getting heavy steel of the
requisite test.
For some of the larger guns in course of
construction it was found necessary to send
abroad for 1t. The bill before Congress ask
ing for an appropriation to build larger
ordnance foundry In the yard, in this city,
provides also for the purchase Of the plant
necessary for the manufacture Of heavy
STEEL
A CRITIC reporter went through the
foundry and machine-shops this morning
and saw twelve of these guns in course of
construction, ranging in size from 5-inch
to 1C.inch rifle. The latter are twenty
six feet long, and aye designed for the deck
of the largest steel cruisers. From the ma
ture of the work and the enormous size and
weight Of the guns the work Is necessarily
slow. The largest cost over 100000 each,
which is cheaper than they could be con-
tracted for.
An officer informed the reporter that the
shop was capable of turning out as good
work as can be done anywhere. He said
many of the mechanics learned their trades
there and were experts. There are now in
course of construction, in various stages of
completion, 10-incb, 3 6inch, 6-inch
and 5inch guns of this kind. The tubes
and jackets for a large number of guns to
be made in other yards have beon bored
here.

Obituary.

In the death Of John r. Dickinson, late
Of the Interior Department, there passes
man of sterling worth once we'll known in
the political arena. Judge Dickinson had
achieved distinction as journalist and
was the constant companion and colaborer
Of his BROTHER Daniel S. Dickinson, who
held so prominent position and so strik-
ing an attitude in the nominating conven-
ton of 1874, when he went to represent
General Cass' interests, and proved true to
them by refusing to accept for himself the
nomination spontaneously and demonstra-
lively rendered. Judge Dickinson's remi-
niscences Of the stirring times of two score
years ago would have afforded material for
a volume of absorbing interest.

Old Democratic veterans Coming.

An old t0wnsman and former business
merchant, Mr.. B. Raft, received letter
from his cousin, DIR. s. Raft Of South Bend,
Indiana, that he and some thirty others are
making grand preparations to attend the
Inauguration of President Cleveland. He
is over 80 years of age, and it will be the
first one he ever witnessed. They will
leave South Bend February 28 in Pullman
palace cars and remain about ten days,
boarding and lodging aboard the cars from
the time of their departure from home I'M
til their return. The novelty of this affair
is that all his companions are elderly gem
tlemen, ranging from 20 TO so years of age.
If such is the case the Committee on Com
fort ought surely make it special point to
see that these Old Hickory veterans spend a
pleasant time.
