At the meeting of the board of educa-
ton on the first Monday in March
superintendent of the city public schools
will be elected to succeed the late S. S.
Taylor. Candidates for the position
are said to be numerous, but they
all seem to be hunting under cover and
conducting a careful canvass. Among
hose prominently mentioned for the
position are Prof. c. B. Gilbert, princi-
pal of the High school; Gen. g. G. Smith,
principal of the Madison school, and
Prof. FL. S. Bates, principal of the
Jefferson school. Both Professors Gil
bert and Smith have many sup
porters, and are said to be
favorablp considered by several
members of the board, but GLOBE re-
porter was informed yesterday by an
inspector that Prof. Baker, of the
Jefferson school, seemed to be in the
lead. The name of Inspector B. F.
Wright has been used in connection
with the position, but he yesterday
denied that he had made any effort for
the appointment, Oh that he is even a
candidate.

MIR. MORTON's LICENSE.
The Cafe at the Shoreham and the Dis
cussion It Has Caused.

The delegates at the w.C.T.U. convention at
Chicago had quite a warm discussion Saturday
over the assertion that bar room license had
been got out for Vice President Morton's hotel,
the Shoreham. The debate was on the assump-
ton that q bar room was run at the Shoreham.
A STAR reporter has investigated the facts as to
the license. bar room license was granted to
Mr.. keenan,, Mr.. Morton's agent, but the latter
says that there is no purpose to have bar
room in the Shoreham. They have buffet
and serve wines and liquors in the cafe, but,
Mr.. keenan, says, that the service is only with
meals and that no one can get drink of any
sort Of liquor there unless he sits at one Of the
cafe tables and takes something to eat. The
furnished with bare tables, while In the other
part of the cafe the tables are set for the serv-
ice of food

THE FUTURE OF BASE BALL.
Rather a Bad Outlook for the Brother
hood If the Reports are True.


President Young and Walter Hewett have
gone to New York to attend the fall meeting
of the league directors, to be held on Wednes-
day. Everybody looks forward to the enact
ment of some lively base ball legislation that
will have considerable bearing on the brother
hood scheme Tom DAILY, who was with Wash
ington last season and was not reserved, has
signed with the Brooklyn association team for
the season Of 1890. He is a brotherhood man
and his detection has caused
SENSATION AMONG THE PLAYERS.
His reasons for signing are that he saw no
prospect Of salary at the recent brotherhood
meeting and as he has a family to support he
thought it his duty to make provision for the
future.
The Inquirer says that the Philadelphia club
Saturday made an agreement with Manager
Harry Wright for next year. Mr.. Wright is to
nave entire charge OF the players and he is ex-
pected TO pick out q winning team from the
mixture OF veterans and youngsters who will
be signed. Maher. an outfielder of the Bur-
hngton, Iowa, club, who is described as a sec
ond Fogarty, was signed last week and a con-
tract has been forwarded to First Baseman
McCauley Of the same club. Manager Wright
SAID that he gave no one any authority to NOM
mate him for secretary of the brotherhood.
THE BROTHERHOOD BUILDING ON SAND.
III this Is a fact, and the chances are altogether
In favor Of its truth, 1t would seem that the
brotherhood has been calculating withUu. its
host and that it has been building on sand
Every day the players position is weakened.
The Inquirer also renarks 1T looks as if
there will be q big break in tho brotherhood
ranks before the league meeting is over. The
league magnates have had little or no COM
munication with the players, and this has made
the players more scary than if they had been
beseeched to sign. All the magnates say that
the brotherhood will be failure. Much gos-
sip Is heard in regard to the answer the league
will make to the declaratio IN issued by the play
ers. There will be an answer sure, and it will
go more into details than the brotherhood
document did. Walter Hewett says that the
Senators will be in the field again in 1890, and
word comes from Indianapolis that the Hoos-
iers are all right. 1t is probable that the league
will make public the number of people who at
tended all their games this season as an offset
to the figures of the brotherhood, which showed
that the league clubs had made over $500, 600
over and above all expenses Colonel Rogers
says that $4,000 people saw the league cham
Plonship games on the home grounds, and that
the Philadelphia club did not make $50, 900 on
the season, but that the club paid out over
s21 600 for releases in thirteen months and
spent nearly $4,000 in permanent improve
ments.

AnacOstia's Statue of Washington.

The official plot of Anacostia shows that
Pierce street between Washington and Jackson
streets is lOS feet wide, and that space with
street on each side extending the length of the
block has been left, and is called Market on
the plot. This is the space which the citizens
of Anacostia desire to utilize for a park and
place on which to erect a statue to George
Washington. Their petition to this effect was
submitted to Capt Rossell, wl.o, in his report
to the Commissioners, recommends that 40
feet on each side of said park be used for street
and sidewalk, as follows: Thirty feet for street
and 10 feet for sidewalk. This will leave
space % feet wide for the proposed park and
statue. further recommend that the design
for said statue and pedestal be approved by
the District Commissioners before it is erected"

ARE OPIUM DENS ILLEGAL?
The Case Of Chong Lee-Judge Miller's
Remarks.

Saturday afternoon, in the Police Court,
after The Stars report closed, in the case OF
Chong Lee, the Chinaman charged with as
sault in selling opium and allowing the drug to
be smoked in his laundry, Mr.. Armes, for the
government, contended that the defendant was
guilty of an assault on Wyatt, because at the
time he administered or sold the opium to
him Wyatt's mental faculties were so affected
that he was incapable of knowing enough to
refuse the drug.
MR.. sHILLINGToN's ARGUMENT.
Mr.. Shillington, for the defendant, argued
that the idea of his client having assaulted the
man was ridiculous one. He deprecated as
much as any one else that there was not law
covering the offense in this District and said
that the law could not be stretched enough to
cover the expanse Of Mr.. Armes' Imagination.
MIR. Shillington then spoke of whisky drinking
and said that If the law covered Chong Lees
case it certainly applied to every rum seller who
deals out whisky to a drunken man. There, he
said, the poison is dealt out in much larger
doses and at a smaller price. Counsel then said
he would read from Wharton on medical jurls-
prudence and give the opinion Of experts.
JUDGE MILLER TAKES NO STOCK IN EXPERT
TESTIMONY.
~ don't take much stock in such authori-
ties" said the judge. 1.-THE testimony on medi-
cal Jurisprudence often amounts to nothing. I
once knew a doctor who drank whisky aud ate
hard-boiled eggs and he said 1t was about as
healthy as any food he could GET"
After Mr.. Shillington had cited several
authorities Judge Miller said that man selling
opium to another was no more guilty of an as
sault than one who sells whisky to him.
The judge then pictured man standing at a
saloon bar taking one drink after another until
he falls to the floor beastly drunk The testi-
mony, he said, has revealed
TERRIBLE STATE OF AFFAIRS
among certain classes and the government GER
tainly deserves praise for trying to break up
the business. 81 have tried my best" con-
tinued the judge, 'to find some law by which
could hold Chong Lee, but l have been un-
able to find one. If had it in my power I
would send Lee to Jail for the balance of his
lite, but / cannot see my way clear to hold him,
The case is therefore dismissed"
ANOTHER EFFORT TO BE MADE.
Mr.. Armes filed an information for
nuisance" against Chong Lee in place Of the
warrant filed the other day and that case will
be heard next Wednesday. TIE trial will
prove an interesting one and will reveal a state
OF facts never before told in q court of Justice
in this city. Among the witnesses who will be
called are several women, who, the govern
ment expects to show, have paid frequent
visits to Chong Lees lanndry and smoked
opium. o. %
Thursday All Wing and another celestial
were arraigned in a Chicago court on a charge
OF keeping an opium joint and Judge Wallace
fined them $40. '5'
