THE GAME OF POKER,

The Remarks of Mr.. Friedman's Counsel
Did Not Save Him From Sentence.
There a gambling case tried in the Police
Court this morning. the most interesting fea-
ture being the remarks Of Lawyer Darlington
in his argument to the court.
Saloonkeeper Aaron Friedman was the de-
PENDANT. He does business at No. 2O6 Az
street southwest. and Policeman Mcnamara
says there would be a case of Sunday bar
against him if his business had been conducted
under a new license last Sunday.
Several of Aaron's patrons were called and
they told the judge that they had played poker
in the place. On at least one occasion there
was 'toll' or 'draw down." and the money
went to pay for the cigars and drinks. 1t was
also shown that an upper room occupied by a
car driver had been the scene Of numerous
poker games.
Friedman denied the charge and he also de-
MED that he knew what was meant by "toll'
or draw down"
In arguing the case Mr.. Darlington said that
if his client guilty he pitied the lawyers
when they go on their shad bake, and he spoke
from experience.
But" said Judge Miller. don't they wait
until they get out of this jurisdicton?''
"les. your honor" answered Mr.. Caring
ton; IN give them credit for being smart
enough for that
Continuing, counsel said that the poker
game was an American institution and mad
been INDUCED in by many great men. He
mentioned the names OF the late Gen. Grant
and the late President Arthur and said it was
well known that Henry Irving lost his money
in the White House.
Senators and members OF Congress" he
added, Indulge in the game the same as the
witnesses i'll this case had but they of course
have better rooms than this car driver and
saloon keeper"
Judge Miller held that the law had been vio-
lated and said 1t made difference so far as
this defendant was concerned who else played
the game.
The proof. however. failed to show a very ex-
tensive game, and the court made the penalty
lighter than usual, fine of S25 or sixty days
The fine was paid.

OVER A MILLION VOTES.
An Omcial Count Necessary to Decide the
Lansburgh Contest.


The Rink was crowded last evening with the
enthusiastic adheren is of the various contest
ants for the six free trips offered by Mr.. Julius
Litnsburgh to the three most popular letter car
riers and policemen in the city, 1t was con-
clusively proven that the Washington people
loved to vote for although the contest has been
in progress but sixty days there were in the
neighborhood of one million one hundred thou
sand votes cast. In the letter carriers contest
MIR. Davis of Capitol Hill appears to have a
walk over The number of votes cast
for second and third prize is SO close
that it will require the official count
to determine the winners. The same state of
affairs exists in the policemen's class. Sergeant
HARRISON of the sixth pre- cinct walks away with
his competitors. while the official count will
be necessary to determine the other lucky two.
Inc excitement in the Rink from 10 o'clock
was intense, and it was estimated that more
than one hundred thousand votes were cast in
that short space of time. Mr.. Lansburgh made
a short address at the close Of the contest and
effort in the contest. He also stated that as a
few hundred votes might change the standing
OK contestant he preferred to await the official
inspection and recount before deciding the
winners, inasmuch as he had noticed quite
number of votes had been cast that were more
than six days old and consequently would not
be counted. At the close of his remarks some
one proposed three cheers for Mr. Lansburgh,
which were given with such a vim that it made
the old Rink, as large as it was, tremble to its
foundation.

Unfair Treatment of Indians.

To the F.litor of The Evening Star.
i thank you for your timely words in Satur-
days STAR in defense of the Navajo Indians.
While / am not familiar with the facts in this
particular case, / believe the white man is
generally the aggressor, and / remember how
the Indians have been treated in other cases;
how the Cncompahgre Ute Indians were driven
from their homes in Colorado through the in
iuence of the U. 5. commissioners to locate
lands for these Ctes in Colorado if suitable
lands could be found for them there, according
to the agreement One OF these commissioners
announced publicly. according to Denver
papers. that he was not going to find land for
them IN Colorado. but was going to have them
moved out of the state. The government
surveyor. Daniel G.. Major. said he found an
abundance of land in Colorado and he sur
veyed considerable for allotments to these
Indians, but his reports were unheeded and the
Indians we're moved into Utah. / remember
well what Mr.. Maj or said to in the general
land office about the lands and the pitiful sight
OF these Indians being moved by military force
from their old homes. NATHANIEL FREEMAN.
