Anxious to Capture Silcott

A man went into Victor Adler's store last
evening to make a purchase and the clerk
thought he resembled the photographs he had
seen of Silcott the defaulter. The clerk went
down stairs and told Mr.. Adler of the visitor.
When he returned he addressed the customer
as Mr.. Silcott but the visitor modestly dis
claimed any right to that notorious name In
the meanwhile a policeman had been called
and the enterprising bluecoat soon donned his
best clothes and went in pursuit of the sup
posed House defaulter. The clerk, who did
not want to lose the $1,000 reward, fastened to
police headquarters to procure the services OF
a detective. When he reached there Detective
Raft was on duty and the clerks statement
made him laugh. The policeman soon entered
and procured a photograph Of the fugitive and
went in search Of the man who had made a
purchase of new suit of clothes

EXAMINING POLICEMEN.
Only Twenty Men Respond Today
There Was a Leak Somewhere.

Capt Austin and Lieuts. Hollinberger and
Guy of the police department met at head
quarters this afternoon and conducted the frst
civil service examination Of the department
When il was determined TO make the eNamina-
ton for applicants for promotion a written one,
the number of applicants decreased. and when
they were called this afternoon less than twenty
men responded
1t was limited that some one had gotten q
'tip" on the questions before appearing before
the Commissioners for examination, and Capt
Austin questioned the applicants to find out il
any Of them had seen or been told of the ques-
tons in advance. There is no doubt but that
the questions or some of them leaked out, for
one OF the applicants asked an official
In advance which was the proper
way TO answer certain question, and
the question proved to be one of those on the
printed form. The room in police headquar-
tiers was not large enough TO accommodate all
the applicants at one time aud for that reason
second sitting was required.
There were sixteen questions on the printed
slip. The principal ones related TO the location
OF prominent buildings and places in the Dis
trlct and the location Of many streets. Some
OF the questions related to matters OF law W hich
police sergeant should know, and the APP
pllcants had to give their opinions as to under
what circumstances bail or collateral can be
accepted. tIt is the intention of the depart
ment to keep the questions for future use, as
the funds of the department are insufficient 70
pay for the printing of new ones.

BoILs ALL OVER HIS BODY.
THE TENLEYTOwN RAILROAD.
Objections to Overhead Wires and to a
Double Track on q Street.

The hearing Of those interested in House
bill l0lO0 to amend the charter of the
Tenleytown Railroad was scheduled 70
take place at the District building this after
noon at O'Clock, but in the absence OF
Messrs. Douglass and Robert the hearing
was postponed until tomorrow at 2 o'clock.
Mr.. r. II. Goldsborough was present repre-
senting the railroad, and Gen. Woodruff and
Mr.. J. Maury Dove were present as directors.
Gen. Woodruff stated that he objected to the
road for the same reason he did
to the extension OF the Columbis
road and that was that il did his section no
good. Further, he was opposed to an over
head system.
Mr.. ]. Maury Dove said that he was opposed
to that portion of the amendment which al
lowed the company to run a double track on G
street. This, he said, was the only
direct outlet the merchants had from the Poto-
mac river and double track would seriously
impair travel He said, however that he
would use further arguments at the hearing to-
morrow.

THE DISTRICTS DAY.
A Chance That the Rock Creek Park
Bill Will Pass Next Monday.

According to the regular order next Monday
is District day, and the friends of the various
measures now pending are in hopes of
securing the time without opposition. There is
a dire rumor however, that the river and har-
Dor bill will still be under consideration when
Monday arrives and that another Dis
trict day will go by the board. The
District committee has been rather
unfortunate this session in the days lost. Mr.
kelly's funeral occupied one District day and
the tariff debates Topped another from the al
loted number
PROMISE FROM THE sPE AKER.
1t is understood that the Speaker has prom
Used that next Monday shall be sacred to the
District and that the time shall not be
invaded under any pretext If this is
80 the Rock Creek Park bill will
receive its final settlement before another week
rolls around. The bill will come up on mo-
ton to lay on the table a motion to reconsider
the vote by which the bill was defeated when
last considered. II the friends of the measure
are successful in getting the bill up again a
large portion of the day will probably be
spent in calling the roll on the several steps
OF its passage.
NO PRoeRAM ARRANGED.
Outside Of the Rock creek bill, Mr.. Atkinson.
who will have charge in the absence of Mr..
Grout, has not as yet arranged a
program for the day. There are
large number Of bills on the calendar ready
to be acted upon. At the first opportunity.
however, 1t is expected that Mr.. Atkinson will
call up his bill legalizing the present occupation
OF the streets and reservations by the Balti-
more and Potomac railroad. This bill will
create considerable discussion whenever called
mp and it is hoped that the bill will not be con-
sidered during the sickness Of Mr.. Grout who
is especially well informed on the subject
