THE LIQuon CASES.
Appeals Being Heard in the Grimm
Court

Appeals Being Heard in the Criminal
Court.
In the liquor appeal cases yesterday
Michael Ruberto was acquitted Of
violating the liquor laws. Richard
Conlchan was acquitted of keeping
Sunday bar, and the case against James
Fortune, charged with selling to minors,
was nolle pressed, as important witnesse5
could not be secured. This morning
Samuel Gassenheimer was charged with
selling on Sunday. 1t was shown that
the Knickerbocker Club rented rooms in
the same building of him, and he fur
nished the drinks.
Mr.. Padgett, for the Government, pro-
duced the record of the clubs incorpora-
tion, which showed that the objects of
the society were "liteUry improvement
and social intercourse"
Were these objects carried out p' asked
Mr.. Padgett.
"Yes, Sir; we have had several balls
there"
The rent, 800 o month, was paid by the
treasurer, who is the defendants brother.
He would send liquor up on Saturday and
did not know what the club did with it.
He sent in his bill on Wednesdays.
Justice Montgomery instructed the jury
that If they found chat the club was n
bona fide organization, Mr.. Gassenhemer
was not responsible for any sale of liquors
| in IL, but If IL was merely blind he must
be convicted.
Nicholas Thiel was next placed on trial
| TO answer the charge of keeping his place
| open on Sunday. His defense was that
| the persons whom the officers found play
| ing cards in the place were merely board
ers who were waiting for their meals

A Representative Liquor Estab-
lishmcnt.

OF the many prominent liquor houses
in the National Capital there is none
that stands higher in the estimation of
the public than Mr. James Tharp's long.es-
tablished house at SlS Il street northwest.
II has stood the test for these many years,
and it is recognized to-day as the repre-
sentative liquor establishme ent of this
city. Mr.. Tharp has made n speciality of
fine liquors, wines and cigars His excel
lent goods and fair dealing have been the
means of building up n large and lucra-
tive business, second to no other in the
National Capital. His excellent brand of
old Berkeley Rye Whisky has national
reputation, and his splendid vintages are
sought after by many Congressman and a
majority of prominent gentlemen OF
Washington. His goods are simply pure;
therefore desirable.

and a proiusion Of potted plants. The

The ladies taking part in the entertain.
ment were Misses Mamie Kearon, Mamie
Breggazzi of the Conservatorie of Milan,
Maggie Nolan, Florence Davis, Agnes
Walsh, and Louie Robert. The singing
of Miss Breggazzi was particularly good

way to censtantinople-Bismarck
Scores Another Triumph
A Russian Plot.

LONDON, Aug. 1.-THE cowardly at
tempt made by Prof. Perrin to kill Gen.
Boulaneer has already had the effect to
create sympathy for the ex-war minister
in quarters where little if any consid-
erations had previous been extended to
him. Hitherto the efforts which have
been made in certain circles TO crush
Boulanger by means of ridicule and be-
lifting his Importance as a political
factor, has been successful even beyond
the most sanguine expectations of his
enemies, but the attempt to assassinate
him give the lie to those of his foes who
pretend toignore him and raises him to the
plane of a maj to be feared. Did the OPP
%portunists really oldBoulangeri in as light
estimation as they protested to, it is CON
tended they would not take the trouble
to kill him, but would rather permit him
to go his own way and kill himself po-
htically at last, as they are fond of assert
ing that he is doing. Sunday episode
has induced a great many persons to be-
lieye that Boulanger is really q persecut-
ed man, who have never before conscien-
tiously regarded him as such, and If he
shall gradually or suddenly rise again to
the prominent place as a leader of men
he occupied a few months ago, the
change will be due to the u~nprovoked as
saults of his opponents rather than to
any of his own.

Ferdinand of Hnlsarla.

LONDON, Aug. 14.-The completion of
the new Bulgarian railway system, by
which Paris and Constantinople are to be
connected by an almost direct route, is q
feather in the cap of Prince Ferdinand,
and will go a long way toward strength
ening the already firm hold which that
rttler has been able to secure upon pop
ular regard. In spite Of the admitted
illegality of Prince Ferdinand's position
on the throne at Sofia, he has managed
the affairs of the principality with 80 re-
markable degree of tact as to excite
he admiration ever of those who still
contend that he must surrender his
rulership. Certainly Bulgaria has
made more internal progress during
the brief reign of Ferdinand than she
has ever displayed under any other ruler,
and If the welfare of that unhappy coun-
try formed any part of the grounds on
which o change OF government at Sofia
is demanded, it would doubtless hesitate
about pushing matters further. But as
considerations entirely apart from M
desire to benefit the country ore at the
bottom of the demand. no question of
sentiment viii be permitted to operate
In favor Of the Coburg prince when the
time arrives for his enemies to act.

Rfsmarck Trinmnhs

LONDON, Aug. 14.-The Pail Mall Ca
zette that Empress Frederick
of Germany has finally conceded to the
German authorities the right to her late
husbands papers, and assured Prince
Bismarck of their immediate delivery
in the hands of tie proper persons. The
reason of her nlajesty's yielding is stated
to be a threat made by Prince Bismarck
to delay the opening of the late emper-
or's will until the papers should be re-
turned. The royal lady depends wholly
upon the provisions for future allow
ance. The statement possesses elements
OF truth which eannot be ignored, since
1t is In the power of the chancellor to
postpone the opening and reading of the
will indefinitely in the absence Of a posi-
tive order of the emperor to the contrary,
an order the. kaiser would be very UNI
likely to issue. Thus, again, it would
seem that her majesty's attempts to CO.
cree the iron chancellor have resulted in
his coercing her.

The Committee at Castle Garden.

New YORK. Aug. 14.-The congress
sional investigating committee spent the
day at Castle Garden watching the pro-
cess of unloading emigrants and ques-
tion:ng arrivals regarding their inten-
lions, prospects and the state Of their
finances. Some thirty or forty were
found to be destitute or on the borders
of poverty, some were without friends
and others had come under contract.
Many could not tell whether this was a
Kingdom or a republic, and did not know
the difference between the two forms of
government. They only knew that they
had heard that work was plenty and that
wages high here. They were detained
pending inquiry rs to their right to land.
