"A WAR OF WORDS.
Lively Talking by Prosecutor Dumont and
Lawyer Hewlett.

Lively Talking by Prosecutor Dumont and
Lawyer Hewlett.
There was a scene in the Police Court today
which for while looked like the end would be
a scrapping match, but il wound up with simply
Dumont were the participants.
Mr.. Dumont was standing at the clerk desk
and there was a lull in the business, when
Lawyer Hewlett stepped up behind him and
began addressing the court. Mr.. Dumont
began to object to Hewletts addressing the
court at that time.
Mr.. Hewlett insisted on his right TO address
the court and Mr.. Dumont was arguing to the
contrary.
Both men were talking at the same time.
and above the voice of Mr.. Dumont Mr.. Hew-
lett could be heard to say something about
Jack Brookings. who was under arrest and no
paper had been filed.
Finally Mr.. Dumont could be heard above
Hewlett and he said that there was no charge
against the boy, and that Hewlett was trying TO
fitch money out of the boys hands.
Don't you say that about me, shouted the
excited colored lawyer. Mr.. Dumont was
equally excited and he retorted Il will say it, ~
All this time the judge was trying to restore
order and Hewlett was heard to tell Mr.. Du-
mont that he said things in court that he would
not say on the sidewalk.
Still both men were talking, each trying to
Guido the other, and the word insult was used
in some connection and Prosecutor Dumont
turned and slowly remarked, Il can't insult
you"
Lawyer Hewlett retorted, II know you
Judge Miller became tired OF the noisy blus-
ter and said that the officers Of the court would
have TO do their duty. Then the war of words
came to an end.

THE PRINTING OFFICE SITE.

Condemnation Proceedings to Give the Gov
eminent Title to Square 028.
Another stage has been reached in the move
ment or the part of the government to buy
land on which to erect printing Office that of
the first steps IN condemnation proceedings
1t may be remembered that when the COM
mission having the purchase of a
site in charge-Secretary Window, Public
Printer Palmer and Architect Clarke-decided
to secure the square numbered 62S. bounded
by North Capitol, East First and North F and
G streets, it was found. after the first
agreement had been made with the
supposed owner, Mr.. C.. A. Snow, that he
had fight on his hands concerning the title.
growing out of the old trouble between the
Hewett estate and some base ball people. The
Attorney General was requested to ascertain
whether the protests that were filed against the
purchase Of the square by Michael Scanlon and
others were valid, and also if there was any,
thing that would prevent the government
securing a valid title. For some time there
has been a certain amount Of research going
in the Office of the district attorney to get to
the bottom Of the case, but with no tangible
results. Accordingly, the commission met
Tuesday at the Treasury Department and de-
ciled to find out. If possible. il the parties
offering the property to the government had
perfected their title, which they had covenanted
to DO within o certain period that had lapsed
The commission had communication with the
Attorney General on this subject, and letter
came from the Department of Justice yester-
day to the effect that the title to square 62S had
not been perfected. Thereupon this morning
Secretary Window, in accordance with the
further action Of the commission made a re-
quest upon the Attorney General to institute
pose Of securing the property by condemna-
ton.

BIDS FOR A DRY DOCK.
Report Of the Commission to Whom the Pro-
posals Were Referred.

Report Of the Commission to Whom the Pro-
Posals Were Referred.
Secretary Tracy has received report from
the commission Of civil engineers Of the navy
Messrs. Asserson, Prindle and McCallow-ap-
pointed to scrutinize the bids recently received
in response to an advertisement for proposals
for building dry dock at the Port Royal naval
station, sc. These bids gave some trouble,
inasmuch as the only bidder with actual expe-
rience in the line Of dry-dock building was the
highest.
The bids were as follows: Justin Mccarthy Of
Washington, S41S. 915; r. G. Packard Of New
York city, s47l 900; ]. E. Simpson Il Co.. Of
New York city, S497.539; C. J. Stolbrand of
Charleston, SC, S326, 620.
The board finds that the bids Of Mccarthy
and Simpson have no features justifying ac-
ceptance; that Stolbrands bid should not re-
celve consideration and that the award should
60 to Il. G: Packard with certain changes in his
plans. The board mentions the discovery
dock at Port Royal is Insufficient
to admit the new battle ships recently designed.
In this connection the board submits the
question as to the ACCESSIBILITY of constructing
any more docks of less capacity than sufficient
to receive the largest classes of vessels now
templated.
In submitting the boards report to the Sec
rotary Commodore Farquhar c0ncurs in its re-
concentrations and SAYS that if the objections
made by simpson against the other three bid
ders were sustained he would feel satisfied in
awarding to the Simpsons the contract in view
OF the boards examination. Mr.. Packard, on
invitation, has sent O modification of his plans
widening the entrance bottom, which the bureau
believes acceptable. If the bid cannot be &C
cepted the bureau recommends q rejection Of
all proposals and the issue of q new ADVERTISE
ment. The Secretary will give all the bidders
a hearing next Wednesday.

He Discusses the Questions Connected With
the New Hampshire Election.
CONCORD, Nh. Dec. 4.-The following is a
synopsis of Gov. Goodelrs message as read to
the legislature here in joint session last night:
1t recited all the facts in the case, showing that
members who had been elected al the result Of
an increase in population were entitled by con-
stitutional privilege and by the precedent Of
1881 to their seats in the next legislature. but
that the statute gave the clerks no express
authority to enter them upon the rolls
and to administer the oath that would enable
them to participate in the organization Of the
house. lie described the status, too. of the
group of claimants from The classed towns,
showing that although these towns had a clear
right to be represented at time within the
decimal period to be fixed by the legislature
the persons chosen in November as members Of
the next house were without any right in law
to seats. He urged that the clerk should not
be called upon to construe the constitution and
the statutes. but should be relieved by explicit
instructions from, all responsibility.
CONCORD. Nh. Dec. 4.-There was nothing
of public interest in the proceedings of the
legislature this forenoon.

The Treasury Department Decides 1t Liable
to Sl6,5OO Duty.
Assistant Secretary Spaulding of the Treas
ury Department has rendered decision, hold
ing that the bondsmcn of the famous painting
1.-THE Angelus' are liable for s16, 500 duty on the
painting. The circumstances that bring aboiit
this state of affairs are peculiar. 'The An
gelus" was imported by II. II.
Plumb, president of the Buffalo
Fine Arts Academy, for exhibition
AZ Buffalo. A warehouse entry was made of
the painting at New York city, the value of the
painting being stated at $4,000 and the duty
on it was $4,000. Bonds were given for. the
payment Of the duty in case it was sold. While
the painting was in the custody Of Mr.. Plumb
under the warehouse entry Thomas E. Kirby,
the owner Of the picture, took it out Of
Mr.. Plumb's custody and carried it with him Ito
Boston as his personal baggage, where he placed
it on exhibition. No transportation entry was
made by Mr.. Kirby, through ignorance, but
this act left the painting without the protection
Of the warehouse entry. The collector of
customs at Buffalo, N. Y, ilow asks that the
collector of customs at New York be authorized
to issue certificate Of lading for export for
the painting for the purpose Of canceling the
warehouse bond. The Treasury Department,
however, holds that the removal IT the paint
ing from the custody Of the officers OF customs
without proper authority renders the bonds
men liable for the duties ..'

CAN'T RIP UP THE STREETS.
The Washington Electric Lighting Compan,
Cannot he Given Formulation.

The Washington Electric Lighting Company
Cannot he Given Permission.
Some weeks ago, as printed at the time in
TIE STAR, the Washington Electric Lighting
Company applied 10 the Commissioners for au-
thority and permission to place and maintain
Its electric wires underground in and along
the streets, alleys, highways footways or side
walks of the city, as set forth in a map accom-
panying the request. The Commissioners
ut the time referred the matter TO the
attorney for the District with the request that
he furnish an opinion as TO the Commissioners
powers in the premises. The attorney at the
time submitted an opinion in which he held
that the Commissioners might legally grant the
permission desired. Mr.. Thomas, the assistant
attorney for the District, who made the report,
has submitted another one. He goes into the
law Of the case at length and says in con-
clusion:
"From the best reading have been able to
give the statutes on this subject, think the
language employed in the act Of March 2, 1889,
authorizing the overhead wires Of any tele-
graph telephone or electric light company TO
be Land underground, must be construed as
though 1t read. that any electric lighting COM
hght wires may put such wires under
ground, &c, not that any electric light COM
pany may come into this District, buy lot of
overhead telegraph wires and open the streets
and put down electric-light wires underneath
its overhead telegraph wires. have
been reluctant to come to this
decision since il is manifest that
the public interest requires competition
In electric lighting and the state. of the art, /
believe, makes it possible to furnish a cheaper
and better light, but cannot reach any other
conclusion than that the Washington Electric
Lighting Company cannot be permitted to put
down electric light wires if they do not own
overhead electric light wires, and SO advise
YOU"

DUBLIN, Dec. 4.-Cnited Ireland saws TODAY:
Without regard TO the compromise which Mr..
Clancy will suggest at today's meeting of the
Irish commoners in London Mr.. Parnell must
go. He must never again lead the nationalist
party.
The Free1Rdn's journal expresses itself as
sanguine that favorable progress will be made
today on the scheme for com promise that will
he laid before the two factions of the nation

LONDON Dec. 4.-1he Labor World GIichael
Davitt's paper). in an article headed mo
Compromise" today admits that Mr.. Parnell.
in desperate and defiant struggle. has carried
with him large volume of popular feeling in
Ireland and the United States. but says that in
every other respect he has failed He has sue
ceeded in attaching to himself only one-third
of the Irish members of the house of commons.
The triumph of patriotism over Parnellism is
certain.
The paper denounces the Clancy amendm INT
az a continuance of Mr.. Parnelrs obstructive
tactics which the majority who have taken a
stand against the fallen despot should sternly
reject. The temporary retirement of Mr. Par
nell will not avail an acceptance Of such pro-

THE FEDERAL ELECTION BILL,
Representative Harmcr Does Not Think II
Will Become a Law

AsepEcScnt8tAVe mariner Does Not Think 1t
Will Become q Law.
Representative Harmer is of the opinion that
the federal election bill will not become law.
He said yesterday that what the business inter
ests of the country demanded, what the people
desired, was a period of rest from agitations.
The election bill should be dropped, or it would
have serious effect upon the country. As
long, he said, as there was constant agi-
tation Of this and kindred questions cal
culated to disturb the country, men
with money to invest in the building ND
OF our industries will hesitate about making in
vestments. What the business interests de-
mand is period Of quietude after the political
excitement. If new industries are to be de-
yeloped under the influence Of the new tariff
law, he said, there must be no disquieting influ-
ences upon business; capital must feel safe to
seek investment in any section and in any in
dustry. The passage of the force bill, he
thought, would keep up ferment which would
mjure the prosperity Of the country and retard
the fulillment Of republican expectations as to
the beneficial effect of the tariff law.
