Louisiana Avenue Not to he DISTRACTED
Until Three Days Before Inauguration.
Messrs. o. o. Spicer and J. Z. Saum. repre-
senting the commission merchants on Louisiana
avenue between 9Th and 10th streets, appeared
before the Commissioners this afternoon and
presented petinon signed by sixty-six COM
mission merchants praying that the Commits
sioners remove the obstruction to Louisiana
avenue at it's intersection with Pennsylvania
avenue.
Mr.. Spicer explained that the obstruction
was erection of a reviewing stand for the
inauguration, and its presence worked great
injury, injustice and inconvenience to the pub
lie as well as the business interests of the mer
chants along Louisiana avenue. He could see
no need Of erecting the stand three weeks be-
fore ii could be used Louisiana avenue, he
said. was direct route between both depots,
and it was one of the most thoroughly travelled
streets in the city. Capt. Rossell said he
believed that ii was unnecessary to commence
the building of the stand SO long before the in
auguration. and he had requested the inspector
of buildings to notify the builder to delay it's
erection as long possible. The build
ing inspector was sent tor, and he explained
that he had notified MIR. Parsons, the
builder, to delay the erection Of the stand until
the 2Sth. and he had no reason to believe that
he would not comply with his wishes, although
the contract for the stand had already been
entered into, The Commissioner however.
notified Mr.. Entwisle to see to il himself that
the stand was not erected until three days be-
fore the 4th of March.

sTAMBOUL's TINE DOUBTED.
Investigating the Records Made on til.
stockton Track.


Stockton Track.
Capt Mt Smith and Jesse ID. Carr OF the Pacific
coast board of appeals of the National Trottiug
Association commenced an investigation into
the Stockton records Saturday night at Stock
ton. Cal, and will finish today. The proceed
ings were sensational in the introduction of a
letter purporting to have been written by II.
NJ. McHugh, secretary of the Lodi track. to
James Cross, executor of the Hobart estate,
when he was in New York just before the sale
of the Hobart stable al auction.
In the letter the statement was made that
certain persons. one of whom WAS the judge Of
the race. had said that Stamboul did not make
2.0!I4 and that the trial irregular. The
writer said that If something was not done to
satisfy these persons between the dates Deem
Der 8 and December Is they would send affi-
davits east and have them published through
the press of the country. He said he was acting
as correspondent for the parties and could be
addressed at Lodi. Mr.. Cross testified that he
believed the letter was attempt at blackmail
Sam Gamble added that the attack on STAN
boul's record affected the sale $4,000.
kearney, who made the charges, and was one
of the judges, refused TO testify at first, but
when threatened with expulsion gave his story
claiming on hearsay that the record was not
better than 9. 16. He said he saw the timers
watch only at the hall, and that the time then
was l.05155. and the mile in 2.071s.
Several witnesses swore that q man standing
where kearney WIS could not the timers.
Two men who timed the mile while standing
near the stand swore it was 2O7Is
Two witnesses swore that Kearney said that
there was a sack in this and he wanted his
portion. A number Of witnesses swore that the
proceedings were regular in every respect and
and no claim of fraud or irregularity was made,
Secretary Large swore that Kearney author
lied him to sign the record for him and was
corroborated by another witness. who heard
the talk. kearney denied il. McHugh left for
Lodi before testifying. He said he vas sick.
The correctness of the time has been conclusively
established by Coney and Thompson, the timers,
and two others who held watches.
Grant Campbell, who was in the timers
stand, but was not an official timer. has been
subpenaed. Kearney says Campbell made the
time Q 16.

"WHERE LIBERTY REIGNS."
His Ashes Cast SO That They
Would Be Carried Out of Human Reach.

The body of Frank Hirth, the anarchist of
Detroit, who committed suicide by taking NOR
phine on Wednesday, was cremated Friday
afternoon, in accordance with the wishes Of the
dead man. His ashes will not be preserved in
an urn, but at his own request will be scattered
to the four winds. Hirth always had socialist
tendencies. and was very active in the move
ment in Chicago for some time preceding the
Haymarket riots. At the time he was arrested
on suspicion of having written most of the in
fammatory articles in Spies. paper. but no
damaging evidence was found against him and
he discharged. The dead man left funeral
sermon which he had written himself and
which he wished TO be read at the furnace door
just before his body was incinerated.
The sermon Is follows:
Here l am at the furnace of natures work
manship. Having been known in life as Frank
Hi-th, born in the town of villingen. III the
Grand Duchy of Baden. in Germany, have
resolved on the dissolution OF my mental and
physical being.
Desiring change of station in this un-
bounded universe, in which constitute but an
infinitely small part, l have extinguished my
earlier existence BY my own haad.
''Lo Lo. u suicide and a crank and coward
some weak-minded person may call out. Mayb be
the outburst of some one who in Introduces him
self to the credulous public as one of the elect
ana spcCldl agents Oh some UelIleu mOnStrOSlty,
whom the Lord-as he terms an unknown i'm
age-has smitten with madness for his unbe-
lief.
well, let those who seek bravery in an
humble submission t o all the woes and ills OF
earthly life, without being self-sustaining, and
misery to their immediate surroundings, not
be criticised for their action.
But if going into death deliberately and
with peaceful self possession OF mind which
leaves no doubt Of its good purpose is an act of
cowardice, then all the human records in this
respect need n just revision.
''As to those who find it madness and pun
ishment going from physical pain and dis
ability, together with ell the other miseries
dependent thereon, to eternal rest and from
social environments to the domain OF liberty
then let the good and holy enjoy the blessings
OF all bountifnl pain and tribulation of earthly
life all to themselves and to the fullness
thereof.
MY psychological construction has been such
as not to have enabled me to adapt myself to
the all-pervadIng spirits Of the present age
whose ways are all but righteous and just |
therefore leave no treasures behind me but a
devoted wife and, perhaps, an adult son, if he
be still alive. / therefore fearlessly and with a
self-composure bordering on state of pleas
antness enter into my new phase of closely
yelled eternity.
Let my ashes be strewn upon zephyrs'
wings. to be carried on high to the sky, out of
human reach. where freedom reigns. Good
bye to all (Signed) FRANK H1RTH."

A POSSIBLE CLASH.
What the President Proposes TO DO In the
Matter OF Carriages

There Is danger Of clash in most important
feature of the Inauguration ceremonies. unless
some understanding more definite than obtains
of March. The point at issue relates entirely as
to how the outgoing and the incoming Presidents
shall go from the White House to the Capitol
on Inauguration day and then return TO the
reviewing stand. 1t is settled that they will
make the trip in a carriage, but that is where
the trouble Comes in. There is an abundance
Of material, but dispute rs TO choice
The local inaugural committee has arranged
10 have two four-horse teams for use on this oc-
caslon, carriage drawn by four white horses
for the President and a carriage drawn by four
black horses for the Vice President The COM
mittee has also provided drivers and fooimen
for these equipsges. and has selected Albert
Hawkins as the driver of the presidential car
riage on the 4th of March. Hawkins is a jehu
of considerable local repute. lie is stalwart Of
frame and very dark as to complexion
and has grown gray in handling the
ribbons over presidential horse flesh.
He has been the Presidents driver since Lin
coins time and Was relieved OF that duty during
the present regime simply because age had 80
dimmed his eyesight that be was no longer able
to guide his team with his former skill. Haw-
kins was therefore given another place under
the government and younger man supplanted
him on the box. His successor. William Willis
by name, has also had considerable experience
in the White House stables, but in a less re-
sponsible capacity. He is young and strong
however. and a capable and safe driver in
every respect. And il the precedents are
followed it will be Willis and not Hawkins who
will have the proud distinction Of managing
the horses which will draw the carriage con-
tanning President Harrison and president-elect
Cleveland to the Capitol and back on the 4th
OF March. As Is well known the President has
TO furnish his stable out of his own pocket SO
that each President necessarily has different
establishment. Under the natural assumption
that the incoming President will have no team
OF his own on the day Of his inauguration,
the incumbent of the office esteems it
his privilege to supply that deficiency
from his own stables. and therefore the custom
has obtained for the retiring President 70
his successor TO the place of his inauguration.
President Harrison proposes to follow this Gus
tom and has given the necessary orders 10 that
effect. He will provide his own carriage and
will have his four best horses harnessed to il
with his own driver and tootmau IN charge
His equipage will be used unless
Mr.. Cleveland shall elect TO occupy instead the
carriage and four provided by the inaugural
committee. Such a course. however, is ex-
trer.ely improbable, inasmuch rs the courtesies
now proffered by President Harrison were
cordially accepted by him from the hands OF
President Cleveland four years ago. The two
gentlemen named will occupy seats in the car
rage exactly the reverse of those occupied by
them four years ago.
