ROCKVILLE, October IA
Tho hearing Of the application of n. B.
Mouiton to the circuit court to have his name
placed on the list OF voters Of Gaithersburg

postponed at the request Of the applicant, and
unless decision is reached prior to the cleo
ton he will not be entitled to vote. Mr.. Moul-
ton is now canvassing the sixth district as the
prohibition candidate for Congress.
1t is reported that Mr.. 8. v. Mace Of Mon
trose has secured the contract for saving cross
ties for the Tenleytown and Rockville electric
railroad Mr.. John Beall. president Of the
road, says that the road will enter Rockville at
the western line Of the corporation and near
tho Woodlawn Hotel. Mr.. Henry N. Copp pro-
poses to extend the limo through West End
Park to tho new station Of the Metropolitan
Branch railroad, to be erected near the Fred
erick road. half mile north Of this place. In
view OF the recent purchase by gentlemen con-
nected with this railroad Of the farms of Messrs
Geo. C. Dawson, John B. Brewer the BGmgar-
dencr farm and others, lying in southern di-
rection from this place, and tho negotiations
now in progress in regard to several other
farms in this vicinity it looks as if this would
be the route of the proposed road and that it
will be pushed to completion in the near flu
ture. The high prices paid for the farms al
ready purchased and offered for others in the
vicinity seems to indicate that tho purchasers
are looking forward to an enhancement Of
values.

The appellants contended that the onus was
upon Gilbert to show be had acquired another

with this presence the intention Of making IL,

FIGHTING SCHOOL BOYS.
A Lads Arm Broken - Judge Mills
Lectures and Fines the Assailants.

This morning in the first section OF the Police
Court Judge Mills delivered sharp lecture to
Adolph and Joseph lie Compton, aged eleven
and thirteen years respectively, and made
some remarks giving good advice to parents
regarding the training of their children.
The boys named were charged with assault
ing another school boy named Robert Nc
whirt The boys all reside in South Washing
ton, and according to the testimony they talked
of challenge 10 fight in the arsenal grounds,
but that challenge, it seems, was not accepted.
The fight charged before the court occurred
on the street, the two brothers attacking the
McWhirt boy. During the fight the latter in
addition to receiving n whipping was knocked
down and his arm broken
The youthful defendants gave their own YER
sions Of the affair and the younger boy in a
bold manner told how he "beat" the lad.
Bobby McWhirt," he said wanted to fight
me when he had a crowd, but wouldn't fight.
That was on Sunday, and when 1 caught him
alone on Monday beat him. That's all there
was about it. My brother had nothing to do
with it"
Judge Mills. after speaking Of how boys were
permitted to run the streets and misbehave
without their parents correcting them. said;
1T is a crying nuisance that children cannot
be sent to school unattended without being
assaulted and ill-treated by older and stronger
BOYS" After warning the boys about their
future conduct the court fined them $40 each
and said that il thoy repeated the offense they
would be sent to the reform school during
minority.

AS TO TREASURER HUSTON.
His Friends Deny the Latest Story
About His Intentions.

No credence is attached at the Treasury De-
partment to the rumor that United States
Treasurer Huston will be appointed xssistan:
secretary OF the Treasury when Gen. Batch
oller vacates his position to go ~ minister to
Portugal, to which position he has\ boon ap-
pointed and confirmed by the Senate. 1t is
pointed out that the salary of the treasurer
of the United States is $1,000 q year:
that of an sssistan. secretary Of the
Treasury s4,5OO year; that I there
are three assistant secretaries and that new
appointee would go down to the bottom of the
list in relative rank; that the position of treas
urer is = practically independents position
while that of assistant secretary Is not, and
that for these reasons to transfer Mr.. Huston
from the position OF United States treasurer
to that of third assistant secretary would, all
things considered, be in the nature OF an Irish
promotion" Mr.. Illusions friends say that
there is no truth in the report ut all and that
when he vacates his present position 1t will be
to take position measurably better or else to
retire entirely from active official life. Treas
urer Huston il absent from the city.

Mr. T. Campbell Copeland, chief of the debt
md taxation division of tho census, who has
been charged by a republican newspaper with
having furnished statistics, without authority,
which were OF value to the democrats for CAM
paisn purposes, indignantly denies that he has
given out any such information. He said to a
STAE reporter today that he belongs to neither
political party, is an Englishman who came
here in 1888 and is not yet naturalized. He
was appointed az statistical expert and not
through any political influence. He presumed
that the whole story arose from the publication
of bulletin No. on the financial condition OF
counties. Upon its issue numerous newspaper
correspondents applied for specific figures in
counties in which their respective papers cir

The "Favored Nation Clause.o

Dispatches from London assert that Spain
cannot negotiate reciprocity treaty with the
United States for the Cuban trade without vio-
latins the favored nation clause" in her exist
ing treaties with other nations. 1t is said al
tho Department of State that this point was
discussed and finally decidedin 1884. wher
Minister Foster negotiated a reciprocity
treaty on the same basis that is now proposed
and is now revived. Tot by Spain, but by the
commercial interests of Great Britain, for an
obvious purpose. The United States also has
the favored nation clause" in most of her
commercial treaties, but this will not embarr asr

A Lively Day at Baum's.

That there was something unusual occurring
was evident on approaching Baum's store this
morning. There were unusual crowds OF
ladies going in and coming out. A glance over
the door was sufficient to tell the reason There
was suspended a sign bearing large red star
and bearing the legend, "Baum's Star Sale. ~
A Star" sale always means big bargains and
corresponding crowds at this popular establish
ment But walk through the store over
hearing comments made by the ladies' shows
that this sale is always superior to all others in
the value of the goods offered for the prices.
The sale continues until Saturday night,
October IS. and from the outlook today there
will not be many ladies in Washington who
will fail to visit Baum's before the star sale
closes
