He Secs a Horse Cruelty Treated and
demonstrates too Forcibly.
The case Of Conductor Todd and Driver Sax
ton Of the Metropolitan railroad and Bruce
Chateaubriand of the Southern Detective
Agency, who were involved in difficulty near
the city hall Thursday morning, was set for
trial in the Police Court today.
The case involving a charge Of profanity
against Chateaubriand was tried before Judge
Kimball.
Conductor Todd testified that there was q
balky horse attached to q car and the animal
was taken and put in the car in charge Of wit
ness. 1t was found necessary to strike the
horse with the whip and Chateaubriand, he
mid, made use of the remark
'It's shame"
Several ladies were on the car at the time
and witness told Chateaubriand that he must
not use such language there.
Lawyer Marbury asked witness if he (wit-
ness) did not use the language and he replied
that he did not; that he was too much of a
gentleman to use such language in the presence
Of ladies.
Driver saxton corroborated the conductors
evidence.
The defendant testified that the horse was
being cruelty beaten and he demonstrated with
the driver. He denied that he used any bad
language whatever. He denied that he uses
bad language. Counsel stated that he had
known Mr.. Chateaubriand for about year and
had seen him under trying circumstances, but
had never heard him swear.
The condition Of the horse was spoken Of
and counsel said he would like to produce wit
nesses to show that 1t was g. shame"
The court imposed a fine Of IS on Mr.. Cha
teaubriand.
In the assault case Lawyer Clarke demanded
jury trial for Messrs. Todd and Saxton and
the case went over.

The concert given at the Universalist Church
last night by the pupils of Mrs Harriette Mills
was a very creditable one. Each Of the sixteen
numbers was well rendered and encores and
floral tributes were abundant. Perhaps the
most marked surprise was the execution Of the
aria from David's LES Perles de Bresil." by
Miss Meads, who developed a soprano voice of
remarkable fexibility and purity of tone. The
difficult cadenZa was given with a freedom and
precision that told of the most careful study
and srduous practice The flute obligato was
exquisitely played by Mr.. Haley. Mr.. STEMS
"ArabiSches Liebenslied" was an excellent
effort. and the work of the Philharmonic Quar-
tet deserves high commentator Miss Law
sang ROdes air with variations effectively, as
did Miss shepard Braya's ''Margueritte's BOu-
guets' and Miss Stidham Tosti's "Beauty's
Eyes" To the two last Mr.. Szemelenyi played
violin obligatos in his usual tasteful manner.
Miss Lolita Mills performed the arduous duty
Of accompanist most satisfactorily. The entire
concert was thoroughly enjoyed by an audience
which fully tested the capacity Of the church.

AMERICAS FIRST CITY.
II 10 to he Transferred From santo Domingo
to Chicago.

IL IL to BE Transferred From Santo Domingo
to Chicago.
w. E. Curtis, chief of the bureau of American
republics today presented letter to the Sec
rotary Of the Navy requesting him to detail q
vessel Of the navy 10 transfer from Santo Do
mingo to Jackson Park, Chicago, portion Of
the ruins of the city Of Isabella, the first civ
ilized settlement in the new world, founded by
Columbus in 1888.
Gentlemen who have visited the place as re-
Gently as 1878 and 1888, the letter says, report
that the ruins are in q very good condition,
although overgrown with vegetation, and pre-
sent a most picturesque appearance.
They deem it perfectly practicable to
remove the greater part Of them,
and if it is possible to transfer
to the exposition grounds at Chicago the re-
mains Of the first city Of America, it will fur
nish one of the most interesting and appropri-
ate features Of the fair The ruins are stu
ated at Cape Isabella, about twenty miles west
Of Puerto Plata, and Immediately upon bay
in which there is said to be plenty Of water and
good anchorage.
1.-THE exposition authorities" the letter says,
will be glad to pay the expenses of the re-
moval Of the ruins and have tie honor to re-
quest through me that you will be good enough
to direct one Of the naval vessels now in that
vicinity to visit the place and make survey for
the purpose of ascertaining the condition Of the
ruins, whether their removal is practicable, the
best and most economical method of accom-
plishing it, and whether there is any person at
Puerto Plata to whom the work may be in
trusted"
The letter also requests the secretary to
direct that sketches, photographs and measure
ments be taken for the information Of the
management. The Secretary has instructed
Admiral Gherardi, who Is now in Hayti, to
comply with the request.

A Peculiar Accident.

A peculiar accident occurred on Pennsyl-
vania avenue near the corner OF 18th street
shortly after 10 o'clock this morning. Carette
number l79 was going westward and the coupe
ward Mr.. Newlands and lady were in the
carriage and a rather awkward Frenchman was
driving.
In some manner the coupe, which was on
the LETT side, was pulled straight across the
path Of the carette, and the hooked pole of
the latter became fastened in one of the rear
wheels Of the obstructing vehicle. The horses
Of the earette were thrown and for a moment
there was great confusion. Mr.. Newlands and
bus companion quickly stepped out and half
dozen men ran to hold the struggling animals
After several minutes of effort the pole was
loosed and the horses were allowed to rise. 1t
was found that neither vehicle was injured
and the horses Of both had escaped without the
least harm
