POSTMASTER ROSS DIRECTORY.
City Post Once Employees Gathering In
the Names Of Citizens.

Postmaster Ross thinks the city directory ID .
good thing, but not quite elaborate enough for
post Office work. The directory contains in
many cases only the names of the heads of tho
family and makes no mention Of other MEM
bers number Of years AGO q directory was
complied by the city post Office containing adj
ditional names, but this has become rather out
of date and new one is in course of construc-
ton.
Slips containing the following, with room for
names, are being left at every house:

WHO WAS HE?
The Driver Of the White Horse That
Came for DIR. CrOnin is Well Described.

Came for DIR. CrOnin is Well Described.
Mrs. Conklin, continuing her testimony in
the Cronin case yesterday, said the man who
came with the white horse for DIR. Cronin was
of medium height, with a stubby beard of a
few days growth on his face; small, soft hat,
drawn down over his eyes, and light or faded
overcoat on. Her description Tailed very
closely with that given by former witnesses Of
the man who hired the white horse from
Oman.
The witness then told the story Of the pro-
ceedings of the day following Doctor Cronin's
disappearance. In the morning she and her
husband discovered the card which the man
had brought, that Of OSullivan. the ice man.
Mr.. Conklin went to OSullivan's place at once
and that afternoon Pinkerton detective
brought O'Sullivan down to the Conklin fat.
Mrs. Conklin related her conversation with
O'Sullivan. She told him, in substance, that
she thought it very strange that man who en-
ployed only three men and who had never had
an accident should employ a physician to be
ready on call in case OF such a happening;
furthermore, it was strange that he should pass
by hundreds Of competent physicians who lived
near by and go seven miles to arrange with DR..
Cronin and it was strangest of all that very soon
thereafter a man should appear with his (O'Sul-
Gvan's) card and take the doctor away, pre-
sumably to his death.
Mrs. COnklin related how she subsequently
identified Dinan's white horse as the one draw
ing the buggy in which DR.. Cronin was driven
to his death. She was then crosse xamined at
great length by Mr.. Forrest, but her testimony
was not shaken.
Miss Sarah McNearny, who was in DIR. Gro
Minis reception room when the man came for
him with the white horse. described that indi-
vidual as appearing very nervous and with
piercing disconcerting stare, which he fixed
upon the witness. Her description Of the man,
the color Of his moustache. of his coat &C.,
accorded closely with that given by Mr.. Conk-
lin.

THE THEATERS.

ALBAUGH's.-A crowded house greeted Rhea
at Albaugh's last night. The new play, Jose
phine," was a success from the first act, the
company being recalled after every scene.
Josephine" in itself does not leave an idea Of
completeness in the mind of the observer
The author has picked out certain strong situa-
tons and worked them rather into a series of
tableaux than a well-rounded play. Rhea,
however, shines out with her usual splendor
Few plays go as accurately into history as does
Josephine" and Rhea seems to concentrate
into herself every tradition of the loveable
empress. Her acting improves at every stage,
reaching climax of splendid effect in the sad
ending. Mr.. Vim. Harris as Napoleon gives
an excellent idea of the great emperor as we
know him. The other members of the COM
pany are also good.
The NATIoNAL.-.'Held by the Enemy"
opened to a good house at the National last
night. Gillettes well-known production is one
of the strongest Of the military dramas of the
day. 1t deals with scenes of the civil war and
its scenic effects add largely to the success Of
the play. Miss Minnie Dupree as Susan. Nc
Cree'y charmed the house by her piquant and
natural acting Miss Maud Haslam as Rachael
and VIM. Harcourt as the hero are also excel
lent.
KERNAN's.-The theater was packed from pit
to gallery last night by large crowd of enthu-
siasts, who came to pay tribute to Muldoon,
the trainer OF Sullivan and the champion
GrPco-Roman wrestler. Many specialties pre-
ceded the athletic part of the entertainment.
sparring exhibition between Reddy O'Day,
the champion heavyweight o. Washington,
and one of the company, was hotly contested
The wrestling bouts we're both interesting and
exciting, as the locals gained quite a victory
over their professional brothers. Greek George
kept Miller, the strong man, from throwing
him IN fifteen minutes and thereby won a
purse Of SIS, while Ernest Rober, young Al
satan. made Muldoon work IL minutes and
lose S24 before he went down. Muldoon offers
81 per minute to any man who stands up be-
fore him.
HARRIS BIJoU.-Duncan B. Harrison, sup
ported by a company of unusual merit. ap-
peared at this house last night IN his military
drama entitled 1.-The Paymaster." The seem
cry is all new and the tableaux effective. The
tank scene in the second act was loudly APP
plauded. Mr.. Harrison as The Pdymdster
threw much fervor into the part

A CONVICT AS A POLICEMAN.
Serious Allegations Against Colored
Special Officer.

Another case involving alleged official mis-
conduct of a colored special policeman, named
Robert Jones, was tried in the Police Court
yesterday. Jos W. Whitehead, who keeps
q grocery store at 10th and NJ streets, was the
| defendant He was charged with keeping an
unlicensed bar The warrant was sworn out
by Policeman Hurd, by the direction of Ser
geants Meyers and HARRISON, on information
received. Mr.. Campbell Darlington appeared
for the defendant and plead not guilty
This case" said Mr.. Darlington ''if the
truth comes out, will develop startling state
OF affairs. expect to show that the colored
witnesses went in the defendant's place last
Wednesday and that while there this colored
special policeman entered. drew pistol and
told the men that they would have to be ar
rested as witnesses. This man Jones, I am
informed
has BEEN IN THE PENITENTIARY
and ne now wears policeman's badge. Am
rlght?'
Il think you are" answered Sergeant Har-
bison.
=, Mr. Darlington went on to tell how Jones and
the witnesses returned and demanded $50 of
Mr.. Whitehead to drop the case.
Jos. jenkins, colored, was called as q witness
and was warned by the court that he had bet
ter tell the truth. He then told a story corrob-
Grating most Of the essential points stated by
~NN. AiihStOu ne odiu tudt ue DOEEOWcu 20
cents from the special officer.
WHERE Is JONES?
"Where is this Special Officer Jones?' in
quired the court.
Policeman Hurd said that he could not find
Jones although he had been at his house and
on his beat.
Sergeant HARRISON said he told Jones what
had been said about his actions and he denied
it.
Mr.. Darlington remarked that his client in
tends to prosecute Jones for blackmail, and
that. he supposed, was the reason he was not
here.
Witness Jenkins said that after they left the
station they returned to the defendants store,
Jones telling them that they had better go in
and see Mr.. Whitehead.
MIR. Shilling.on said that he wanted the spe-
cial officer and Randall Bowie as witnesses.
Policeman Hurd said he thought that the
special officer was trying to keep out of the
way.
Mr.. Shillngton said he would ask that the
case be continued for few days until the
special officer and the other missing witness
could be found. He thought that the United
States district attorney should be in court
when they do appear and hear their evidence.
The case went over until Friday.

A Daughter Of John G. Rives Dead.

Mrs. Carrie Williams, daughter of the late
John C. Rives, died yesterday morning at the
old family residence-the Rives place, on the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad. She was stricken
with apoplexy Sunday and was unconscious
till she expired at o'clock yesterday morning
She was the wife Of Mr.. Samuel T. Williams,
who in the life time of John r. Rives was the
editor of the Globe. The deceased possessed
many Of the characteristics of her distinguished
father, being of the most generous disposition,
with a hand ever ready to do good act, in
such a delicate manner as not to wound the
feelings of those she aided. The funeral will
take place on Thursday, at 1890 o'clock, at the
Rives mansion. Friends can leave Washington
by the 1910 train and return from Rives station
at l:40.

Sent to the Reform School.

In the Police Court, Judge Miller, this morn
ing two small colored boys-Wm. Hamilton and
Joseph Jones-were charged with being sus-
picious characters. Officer Pearson testified
that a number of houses-Nos. 1923, 1875 and 327
Sd street and 2O5 street northeast-had been
robbed and Hamilton had been arrested in con-
nection with the robbery and he implicated the
other. Hamilton admitted that he had been
in the houses and insisted that Jones and
another boy were with him. The officer stated
that Hamilton's father was dead and his mother
in the poor house. The court sent Hamilton to
the reform school and dismissed JONES'

Death Of Miss Halle English.

The remains of Miss Halle English, who
died in Knoxville, Tenn, on the 25th instant
were taken through this city last night for in
torment in the family burial lot at Philadel-
phia. Miss English, who was well-known in
this city, was the only daughter of Col. Thomas
English, deceased. She was a young lady OF
fine accomplishments and rare traits of mind
and heart She leaves a broken-hearted
mother and brother to mourn her untimely
death. Miss English went from this city to
Knoxville last spring to fill the position of
teaching soprano in the First Baptist church
in that city. Three weeks ago she was attacked
with a light form of typhoid fever. No danger
wasapprehended till last Thursday night, when
hemorrhage set in, and from that time she sank
rapidly.
