DISTRICT SUFFRAGE.
1t IL Advocated by Assembly No. GO, X. of L.
A Committee to Draft a Bill

1t IL Advocated by Assembly No. GO, X. of L.
A Committee to Draft Bill.
The first gun in the fight for District suffrage
was fired last night at a meeting of Assembly
No. &c. K. of L., at which there was q sharp
debate that brought forth good many forcibie
epithets, applied to the District government.
The debate was upon a resolution introduced
a week ago by Mr. Blake indorsing the bill in
troduced by Senator Blair 30 amending the
Constitution as to give the District rep
resentation in Congress. This resolution
was tabled for a week, and last night
the artillery of long-pent wrath was
loosed. There was no lack of harmony on
the question Of whether or not the District
should have suffrage, and the drift of opinion
seemed to be that the bill OF Senator Blair did
not penetrate deep enough into the evil of insult
helent local legislation. 1t was therefore voted
unanimously to appoint q committee to look
up the matter anu TO prepare a bill to be
introduced at the next session providing for a
system OF local suffrage and legislation. A
committee OF three was appointed, consisting
OF Messrs Paul L. Bowen, l.. Z. Wild and Sid
ney Maitby. This committee will probably
draft bill covering the evils that are SUPP osed
to exist. and it will be introduced next tall for
the purpose OF feeling the congressional pulse
Mr.. bowen, speaking this morning to a STAB
reporter, said tnat he thought the time rapidly
approaching for such a movement to stand a
chance Of success; that Congress is growing
very tired OF legislating on infinitesimal sab
jects for the District, and that the day is near
ut hand when the national body viii decide to
stop washing the Districts dishes and will be
glad to get rid Of the burden.

Little Prospect for Continuing League Club
in Cincinnati.
Dispatches from the west indicate that the
league will not put club in Cincinnati, but
will transfer the franchise to Indianapolis
President Kramer of the association yester-
day talked freely Of base ball affairs. so far as
he knew them, and said the idea that the asso-
citation was acting hastily or playing game
Of bluff was wholly wrong. The association,
to retain both its self-respect and its position,
was compelled to pursue its present course.
Any other would result in league tyranny to
an unbearable degree. The association would
go ahead about its business of PLAYING good
ball. paying fair salaries, and keeping faith with
the people. The leagues talk of blacklisting
association players wouldn't cause a second 5
hesitation. As far as justice would permit con-
fiicting dates would be avoided. The league
would have to do the quarreling. Ii a COM
promise resulted the association would dictate
the terms.
As to players for the local club he could only
say it would be made the strongest organiza-
tion Cincinnati ever knew. Mr.. Kramer would
NOT discuss Mr.. Thurman, but said he believed
the association could depese and elect its Off
GERS ut pleasure. The officers we're not alarmed
at the leagues threat to expel them. If the
league could stand il they could.

THE POLICE COURT BILL.
Judge Miller Thinks II Will Pass-Candidate
Cor the New Judgeship.

Judge Miller Thinks II Will Pass-Candidates
for the New Judgeship.
The Police Court bill having passed the SEN
ate with few minor amendments and been
sent to the conference committee, Judge Miller
is now satisfied that it will soon be definitely
acted upon and sent to the President and he
thinks it is hardly probable that the President
will refuse to sign it. In event of the bills be-
coming law it will necessitate the appoint
ment of another judge in addition to providing
a jury for the court. Judge Miller is OF the
opinion that the bill will become a law before
the end Of the present month and that next
month the jury trials will begin. as the bill will
become operative as soon as it receives the
President signature.
In the event Of the bill becoming law the
rooms in the Webster building which are now
rented for the use OF the court will be utilized
as jury rooms, and il is likely that one of them
will be used as a court room until Congress
provides more suitable accommodations for
that purpose
The candidates for the new judgeship are
already building their fences, as the appoint
ment will probably be made soon after the bill
become law and there will then be no time to
prepare applications and get signatures to
their papers
Among the candidates mentioned are several
members OF the District bar 1t is claimed that
no person other than District man is qualified
for the position because OF the peculiar condi-
ton OF the numerous sets of laws under which
the people of this city are governed
The name of Justice S. c. Mills is prominently
mentioned III connection with the appointment,
while the friends OF Mr. Charles A. Armes the
assistant district alto: ey, are pressing forward
his clairis to the Office. Many other names
have also been mentioned, among them being

A City Post Offlce Suggestion.

To the Editor OF The Evening Star:
In reply to the city postmaster's interview
with q STAR representative, in which the post
master said he had been looking about all over
the convenient parts Of the city for q building
suitable for city post Office, but could not de-
termine upon any building with ground floor
capacity to meet the requirements Of the city
post Office, I would make this suggestion:
Build a frame building on the east end Of
square No. 323 (already condemned by an act
OF Congress for city post Office site) to cost
about SIS, 900, with sufficient capacity to meet
the required wants of the city post Office for
five Years. In emergencies this plan has been
adopted by the government for the other de-
partrneuts heretofore, notably in the Interior
Department. The rental paid now for the pres
ent city post Office is Ss,lO0 (the owners de-
manding u higher rent hereafter), with insufii-
Gent floor capacity for postal requirements
The city postmaster (weu informed, we sup
pose,) says that il will take five years to build
the proposed new city post Office. At the pres
ent rental five years would cost s40, GOO. The
plan suggested would be a saving Of $4,000.
To say nothing of the saving OF this cost 10 the
government, II the officials, by reason or other
wise, would proceed to assess this property
(square No. 3zS) il would be justice TO the
owners Of said property, for the act of Con-
gress selecting this square for city post Office
has ruined all values Of rent or otherwise for
business purposes. Buildings upon that square
are valueless for rental purposes ON account Of
tho uncertainty Of time allowed the Official
commission to act in the matter. Square ass.
three squares above, WAS purchased by TIE
Washington and Georgetown Railroad Conn
pany, the title perfected, buildings are being
torn down, and In all probability the immense
power house VII have been built before the

erty which they can neither rent NOR sell. = tie

1t IL Not Large, but There Are No Fears OF
the FaInily's Poverty.
story has been put into circulation during
the last few days. and has been kept alive with
persistency, to the effec. that the settlement OF
the estate of the late Secretary Window has
revealed the fact that there is practically moth
ing left for the maintenance Of the family.
This statement is quite untrue, and has
been traced to a misunderstanding. on the
part of the agent of an INSURANCE: policy in
which the Secretary had premium. The fact
is the fortune left by Mr. Window is a mod
crate one, ard the income from his invest
ments is small but there is no such suspicion
OF poverty as the rumor would lead one
70 believe. 1t is understood that
thia income is scarcely large enough to
pas the rental Of the house which the
Secretary occupied on Massachusetts avenue,
but the funds are SO placed that the value o,
the property-largely real estate-will proba-
bly, increase materially in few years. There
are two policies on the Secretary's life, one in a
northern institution, which he took out thirty
one years ago, for 5000, and on which he has
probably paid more premiums than the amount
of the policy. The other is for $1,000 in a
company in Minnesota.
