on the Two Offenders.
HENRY V. SMITH,
Belmont, West Va

The police of the second precinct continued
their investigation of the case of Frank Payne,
the boy who ran against the wire stretched
across the sidewalk Sunday night on L street
near New Jersey avenue, as described in yes
terday's STAR, and last night Policeman Grant
arrested Charles Cephas He was the third
one arrested. The boy Thaddeus Mitchell, who
was arrested yesterday, was released, but
Lester Smith and Chas. Cephas we're held as
the boys who stretched the wire. The former
is twelve years old and the latter
year younger Fred. Simmons, a ten
year-old coiored boy. who was found by the
officers, said that the other two BOYS were the
guilty ones, although they denied it.
While in the cell at the station last night
Smith was heard to tell the other boys not to
give the thing away, and Cephas remarked:
THE wire gave you away"
THE HEARING IN THE POLICE COURT.
This morning the boys were taken to the
Police Court, where Smith and Cephas were
charged with obstructing the pavement in vio-
lation Of an act for the preservation of order
and property. The Simmons boy told his story
of the sad affair, duplicating the boys charged.
Smith was sworn in his own behalf and he
denied the charge
When asked by the court where he was Sun
day night he said he was on 4th street catching
on behind cars.
What were you doing that for2' inquired
the court
Ito see how far / could ride without being
caught" was his reply
Cephas said that he was out playing Sunday
night.
Judge Miller in commenting on the case said
that the Joke was a cruel one and would not be
repeated by these boys for some time TO come.
He would give them all he could under the la W
and would sentence them to the Reform School
during minority.
THE CASE REoPENED.
Mr.. Darlington subsequently appeared in the
case and asked the court to reopen it. Tho
case, he said. was a grave one, as the injured
boy was not expected to 1--we. In event of his
death he thought conviction on this charge
would operate against the defendants.
The court granted the motion and set the
hearing for Saturday
The injured boy was resting much easier this
morning and DIR. Adams said that his condi.
ton had improved since yesterday.

District Authorities Take Steps to Pre-
vent Railroad Obstruction at Trinidad.

Several days ago Mr.. Ii. T. Douglass chief
engineer of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Company, submitted blue print of the prop
erty owned by the company in Trinidad on
which they proposed to erect a round house
and shop. The matter was brought to the
attention of Capt. Rossell, who called
the attention of the Commissioners
to the fact that the railroad
company were operating without any permit
and that they had graded Q and streets He
says that the Trinidad subdivision is on record
and it seemed to him that they should be
stopped before they do any damage. He
requested that the matter be re-
ferred to the attorney for the District
and made special 30 that the police could
act before any damage could be done. The
matter was accordingly submitted to the attor-
ney and today in his report upon the case he
says: Il concur in the position taken in this
case by Capt Rossell. The railroad company
mas no right to occupy the public streets in
this manner without express authority Of Con
gress."
