DISTRICT GOVERNMENT.

THINKS MASONIC HALL NEEDS FIRE ESCAPE.
Senator W. E. Chandler has written letter
to the Commissioners calling attention to the
need OF a fire escape at the Masonic Hall He
says that at the concert Of the Harvard Glee
Club the other evening it seemed to him that
the audience, in case of an alarm Of fire, false
or real, would have been in terrible peril as
the only exit door was no larger than the front
door Of his house. He said it took fully half an
hour to empty the hail. and every thoughtful
person must have been impressed with the e4-
treme folly Of allowing the hall with this one
entrance to be used for gatherings such as as
sembled there on that night. He asks if the
use of the hall was allowed by law, and if there
is no inspection by law provided for, and
whether the law has been obeyed, such as it is.
The matter has been referred to the inspector
of buildings, who will submit his report to the
Commissioners, when the same viii be for
warded to the Senator.
ASKING EXEMPTION FROM LICENSE TAX.
The Commissioners have before them letter
from the WOman's Exchange praying that
they be exempted from taking out license for
an eating house. They say that the object Of
the exchange is to assist needy women, and
that no benefit is derived from the exchange
that is not applied to the charities of the city,
They further explain that the exchange sells
articles on a commission for the benefit of
poor people. The Commissioners will probe
bly, issue an order exempting them from a Ii
cense.

Gussie Price and Mary Smith, sixteen-year-
old colored girls who spend their time in o
street alley, were before the Police Court today
charged with being Migrants. Policemen Heide
and Trammell -eemplained against them as be-
ing responsible for the disorderly gatherings
of coiored men in the alley. The officers also
told of the manner in which the girls live and
of the company they keep. Lawyers Moss and
Hewlett represented the girls, and argued for
their release.
Judge Miller said he had no doubt as to the
girls being Migrants. The only thing that puz-
zled him was where to send them. The work
house, the judge said. is crowded. and if the
girls are sent there they will come away five
thousand times as bad as when they were COM

THE CRIMINAL COURT,
Many Prisoners Arraigned and Sentences
Pronounced Upon Them Today.

| Many Prisoners Arraigned and Sentences
Pronounced Upon Them Today.
In the Criminal Court, Chief Justice Bingham
this morning MI. McKenny called up the cases Of
Jerry O'Brien and Henry Boyer, engineers of
the Baltimore and Potomac railroad, convicted
OF running their engines in the city limits at q
greater speed than twelve miles
per hour. He stated that they were
| each fined $40 and costs and
appealed the case and in this court the recog-
nizance had been forfeited. They had moved
for forfeiture, and the attorney for the Dis
trict having agreed the forfeiture might be
stricken out, he would, if that was DONE enter
plea of guilty and submit to the penalty.
This course was adopted and a fine of $40 and
costs in each case was imposed.
Vim. H. Howard and William Wilson, two
colored boys who plead guilty on December !
to housebreakinS at the residence of Mrs Ella
A. Harlan. No. IL 7th street southeast, on Oc-
| tober were sentenced to the Albany peni-
Tertiary for fifteen months each. Mr. Miller
made an appeal for them. claiming that they
were dupes of another party and on account OF
their tender age, but the court having been in
formed that the reform school was full re-
marked that the job showed considerable adj
vance in second-story robbery and the jail
was not SO good a reformatory as the peni-
Tertiary.
in the case of Mark Smith, a colored shoe
maker convicted December 10 of assault with
intent to commit rape on Alice Webster, a col
ored girl Of fifteen years, in July last. he was
sentenced to the Albany penitentiary for if
teen months. Smith asserted before sentence
that he was perfectly innocent and that the job
was put up for revenge by the mother because
he would not live with her. Had he been
guilty, he said, he world not have put the gov
eminent to the trouble OF trial. He asked
to be let of be given Jail sentence
only.
His counsel. Woodbury. Wheeler and Gen.
Darlington, having moved a new trial on ex-
ceptiOns that will take the case to the General
Term, and the court therefore directed a sus-
pension OF the sentence until thirty days after
the next General Term.
Lizzie Williams. alias Eliza Fry, the colored
girl convicted OF larceny from the person.
$40 from Otto Kleinshune Oh October 6. was
sentenced to the Albany penitentiary for two
years. She protested that il was her first
offense and asked. us she had been in Jail for
three months, that the sentence be lenient
Mr.. Ciagett said that though she had been ar
rested twice before for similar offenses she had

End Of the Lottery Cases Against Mr. W.
W. Gould.
In the Criminal Court this morning, before
Chief Justice Bingham. the case Of VIM. W.
Gould, charged with selling lottery tickets, was
called. Mr.. A. B. Williams, his counsel, en-
tered plea for him, with the statement that
Mr.. Gould had fully believed that the lottery
company would eventually succeed in having
their business declared legal, but he had now
concluded to abandon the business.
Mr.. Clagett stated that the government could
enter into no bargain and called the courts at
tention to the indictment containing four
counts.
Mr.. Gould was asked by the court If when
engaged in selling the tickets he believed 1t to
be legal and he answered that he did, but had
n0x-determined to abandon it and engage in
some other business.
The chief justice. after examining the law,
imposed fine Of $50 on each count-S200 in
aai, remarking that he made the fine thus small
because of the defendants statement that he
had abandoned the business.
Mr.. Williams said that he had conversed with
the district attorney the police officers and the
post Office officers, and all concurred in the
course taken.
