THE LIE DROIT PARK FENCE.
The Opponents VIII Pursue the Case Up to
the Supreme Court.

The Opponents VIII Pursue the Case Up to
the Supreme Court.
As announced in yesterdays STAR the his
toric LIE Droit Park fence across Linden street
has been put up once more, much to the dis
satisfaction and disgust of the people who live
In Howardtown and other neighborhoods be-
yond the park. The anti-parkites have taken a
firm stand and say they intend to fight the case
through until it is finally settled in the Su-
preme Court. They say they were as much
surprised as grieved at the decision of the Court
in General Term, but they do not intend to let
the matter rest nor the fence remain.
Mr.. August Schmidt. who is one of the lead
ing outsiders and opponents of the fence, said
to STAR reporter today that he was sorry for
the decision not only for his own sake and the
sake OF his neighbors, but also for the people
within the park who are opposed to the fence

ciared to be no thoroughfare. must be deprived
OF pavements, water, gasand sewers at the pub
Tic expense. 1.-The streets originally were dedi-
Gated to the public use and when the park was
platted the survey was recorded without reser-
Walton. Since the street had been left open so
long. continued Mr.. Schmidt. I'VE supposed it
would remain so and we were rs much sur
prlsed over the action of the court in permit
ting the fence to be restored as if private in
dividuais bad been allowed to restore fence
across pennsylvania avenue which had been
erected and then torn down in answer to
popular demand. We think that until the case
can be finally settled Linden street ought to
have been left open to travel"

MRS. CAMPBKLL,s TACT.
How Ohio's Governor In Aided by HE
Wifc's Diplomacy.

The incident Of Mrs. Campbell taking Maj.
Mckinley out for a drive after his nomination
| SO that driving with both her husband and can
didate of the opposing party she would be sure
to have drive with the next governor vf Ohio
that day calls to mind the fact that the wife of
Gov. Campbell is regarded as one OF the best
politicians in that state. The governor himself
has a way of making host of friends for every
enemy he excites, and many of them love him
on account Of the enemies he has made, but
| without Mrs. Campbell to help him he would
find honors perhaps not less sure. but harder
to get She is a woman of extraordinary TACT
and 80 entirely free from snobbishness or
affectation that many an influential but humble
political worker who has been disposed to get
at outs with Jimmy" has changed his mind
about 1t after receiving some kindness and
courtesy at her hands During the time Gov.
Campbell was member of the House they lived
in very good style here, mingiing in society a
good deal. They were popular among fash
lonable people, but no one from their home in
ONO was ever too questionable to meet with
warm reception by Mrs. Campbell at her own
house and by her tact she endeavored to make
the most awkward feel easy. Not all of the
constituents OF a member of Congress are OF a
character to shine Ill Washington society and
members have often suffered in consequence of
characterization on the part OF their wives to
be annoyed with the presence OF persons Of
whose general appearance they are ashamed Of
in the presence of their more fashionable
friends. Governor Campbell never had any
thing Of this sort to contend with. Had he
been lacking in tact himself his wife would
have made good the defect. A STAR reporter
was told that IS the mistress Of the governors
mansion she exercises the same tact she showed
while here and that she is ever looking out for
the interests of jimmy" she never fails to
call her husband when speaking with an Ohioan.
By her diplomacy she has won over to her hus-
band many who were disposed to be hostile,
and in not few cases, it is said, the criticisms
OF Ohio newspaper men have been silenced by
social attentions. One man. however, with
whom both the governor and Mrs. Campbell
have been anxious to maintain friendly rela-
tions the ladys best diplomacy has failed to
capture. Mrs. Campbell, it is said, has tried
in every way to bring the governor and John
T. Mclean together, but Mr.. Mclean still re-
mains hostile.

FLOATING BARGE SALOONS.
How the ProprietOrs Can Be Proceed
Against for Selling Liquor.

How the ProprtetOrs Can Be Proceeded
Against for Selling Liquor
The war on the floating barges above the
Aqueduct bridge has commenced again. This
time the Potomac Stone Company are the COM
plainants, and it charges in letter recently
received by the Commissioners that one of these
boats was in deep water and unlawfully selling
liquor without license. Lieut. Hollinberger
was detailed to inquire into the matter and
he reported after an investigation that the
question of jurisdiction was mooted one. The
owner applied for retail license during the
former board term of Office and the then at
torney for the District held that inasmuch as
the barge was lying in a cove and beyond the
line running from headland to headland il was
without the jurisdiction of the Commissioners.
He stated further that application was made
last summer for a license, but the Commits
sioners did not grant it.
Attorney Hazelton was then called upon for an
opinion, which he forwarded TODAY He saws
there Is little doubt that the jurisdiction of the
Commissioners extends to high-water mark.
and if upon investigation the officers find il
within the jurisdiction of the Commissioners
he has no doubt that the selling of liquor there
Is Illicit. While, he continues the proprietor
Of such liquor saloon anchored uron
water, as the one in question, cannot present a
case ior incense 10 the commissioners
within the form and requirements of law,
nevertheless if within the Jurisdiction and
reach of the District authorities he sells intoxi-
eating liquors whether in saloon resting upor
the earth or floating in the air or upon the
waters OF the Potomac without its consent he
violates the law. He recommends that the
police look into the matter and if satisfied that
the floating saloon is within the territorial
jurisdiction of the District authorities to
move upon its W orks' at an early day.
The police have been ordered to investigate
the matter.

John Smith and Archie Lovett, colored bar
bers, will hardly be able to give any Sunday

They were employed in a 7th street barber
shop and when the proprietor was sick they
had dispute, each claiming to have charge Of

and especially those who were seated in the
chairs where razors were SO plentiful and where
cups were flying through the air. They were
