He 10 in charge of the Eighteenth
Street Methodist Church, and has fbeen
making an effort to rid his neighbor-
hood OF disorderly houses and policy
shops. The Sixteenth Precinct was in
command OF Captain Schultz when Mr..
Wilson began his crusade, and Is now
commanded by Captain Donohue
Some six months after reaching this
city, Mr.. Wilson said he received infor-
nation about policy shops, aud he
gave this Information to Sergeant Isaac
Bird, who Is detailed at tho Detec
tive Bureau, and who Is member
Of his church; but, not shearing anything
about the matter, he wrote 60 Superin
tendent Byrnes and Immediate action
was taken. Captain Schultz called
on him and said that the CON-
plant which had been sent TO
Superintendent Byrnes had gotten
him into serious trouble at police head
quarters, and that he had been unmerei-
fully scored by the superintendent. He
asked that in future the complaints
be made 10 him, and he
would attend 10 them, which
he did. When Captain Donohus came.
he promised Mr.. Wilson to assist him.
The minister had confidence In the cap.
tain for several mouths, and then came
TO the conclusion that he was being
played with by Captain Donohue.

The Senatorial Committee on Naval
Affairs has decided that the steamship
Empress, owned by John d Hart, Of
Philadelphia, is an American vessel and
entitled to an American register. The
Empress was built In Middlesborough,
England, and for some years has been en-.
gagged In the fruit trade between Phila
delphia and the West India Islands. In
April Of last year she ran aground In the
Delaware and was sent TO Cramps for
repairs While there she was entirely
refitted at a cost of $4,000. The com
mittee decided that she WAS practically
rebuilt in an American shipysrd with
American labor and material and is
therefore American.
