MIR. DE ARMOND AGAIN.
He Thinks the United States Should
BE Provided for by the District.

Mr.. De Almond Of Missouri is at his old
tricks again. He is apparently still of the
opinion that the District of Columbia should
feel honored by the prescLce of Congress
and the government establishment in this
city to the extent Of the citizens paying
the cost entailed upon the city by such
presence, as well as its own municipal ex-
penses.
He has introduced bill In the House to
require the citizens to pay all of the ex-
pensss of the District. The bill Is short,
but deadly. 1t provides:
THAT all acts and parts of acts in so far
as they direct or provide for the appropria-
ton and payment by the United States of
oDe-half of the approved estimates and ex-
and they are hereby, repealed
The bill was referred to the appropria-
tionS committee, whose members have seen
a little more service than Mr.. De Armond
and was quietly filed away, where 1t will
probably remain filed and collect a proper
accumulation of dust. This is not new
thing upon the part of Mr.. De Almond, as
he made the same effort in / is first term of
Congress. A similar effort is made at near
ly every Congress by some one. A new
member arrives and suddenly makes the
startling discovery that the government
Is paying one-half the expenses of the Dis
trlct. He forthwith starts in to reform
'hinss and then about the end of his sec
ond term comes to his senses and is will
ing 20 let the appropria tions committee con-
uuCt the business in its own way.

Copies of all orders issued by Ike Navy De-
partment to officers assigned TO duty in

between the Secretaries of the Navy and
these officers is now being selected, and
will be ready for copying within a day or

much more so but ii is understood that a
copy for transmission to the Senate will be
ready within short time.

Whether it will be sent in as soon as COM
pleted is uncertain. 1t is believed that the
President will wait until he gets some "def-
mite information" from Minister Willis be-
fore complying with the wishes OF the Sem
ate. 1t is possible that the President may
send his promised special message to Con-
greSs on Hawaiian affairs, showing exactly
what Minister Willis was instructed to DO
and what he has accomplished in that line.

of the work entailed by the Hoar resolution,
which askes for copies of the record of the

DR.. MEYERS SCHEME.
His Alleged Attempt. to Swindls
an Insurance Company.
MURDER OF AN ACCOMPLICE.
Beginning of His Trial at New
York.
STORY OF THE TRAGEDY.

NEW YORK, Dec. s.-The taking OF testi-
mony in the case of DR.. Henry c. F. Meyer,
charged with the murder of Ludwig Brandt
by poisoning, was begun this mor1ing IN
the court Of oyer and terminer. 81.
Carl Mueller was the first witness called
by the prosecution. Mueller said that his
right name was Carl Kirfel
When he was a prisoner in Joliet prison
he met DIR. Meyer, the defendant, Brandt
ana Baum. He also saw Mrs. Meyer when
she came to see her husband.
Mr.. Brooke made a long argument against
the admission Of testimony from the wit
ness as to the conversations he had with
Meyer in the prison. The evidence was sd
mitted.
Meyer told the witness that ne had q
scheme for making money In large sums by
defrauding insurance companies.
After he came out Of JAIL on the 2d CT
June. 1891, the witness again saw Meyer at
33l Center street, Chicago. where Meyer
was practicing medicine. He also saw Mira
Meyer there.
Meyer asked him IL he was ready to 20
into the scheme TO defraud insurance conn
panies, and the witness told Meyer that be
was not. He did not want to get into PRISON
again. Meyer told him he had been to see
Baum in Joliet prison. His wife had gone
Win niIf- IN prison Baum went under the
name of Parker. Meyer said that Baum
looked sick.
Mueller further testified that he had met
a girl named Lena Kaufman in Lincoln
Park, Chicago. Just what connection Iera
Kaufman has with the case may come out
later.
The witness. continuing, said that Never
told him that Baum was arrested again in
Cincinnati, and that he was very sick. He
(Meyer) wanted to get some one TO imper-
senate Baum, and to get his life insured.
Then. when Baum died. they would got the
insurance money. Meyer went 10 see Baum
and later on he went TO Germany to frd
out about Baum's history. When Never
returned he wanted tM witness 10 have his
life insured in Baum's name, bu. this the
witness refused TO do.
Some time after Meyer told him that he
had had Brsndts life insured and that the
scheme was to have Mrs. Meyer pass as
Brandts wife. Brandt was insured under
the name of Baum. To fully carry out the
deception. Mrs. Meyer was married to
Brandt. Brandt was in the scheme and un-
derstood that he was to be made 70 appear
very sick and that then he would be taken
away and made better. while a dead body
would be passed OF as his corpse. Mueller
and Brandt, 1T the request of Meyer, came
to New York. bought furniture in the name
OF Baum and hired a fiat I'm East 18Th
