II IL to Be Sold at Public Auction
Under n Deed of Trust.
The announcement of the proposed sale
OF the Glen Echo railroad property at auc-
tion Thursday, August g. occasioned con-
siderable agitation in local railroad circles
.oud!, ana there was much inquiry regard
ing 1t. An advertisement in a Rockville
weekly paper was all that the general pub
lie knew of the matter, and this stated that
on the day named the property would be
soio by virtue of deed of trust from the
Glen Echo railroad company to James B.
henderson, George E. Hamilton and Leon
ard Il. Poole, the sale to take place at the
junction of the Glen Echo and the Ceorga
town and TenIeytown railroads
Inc property to be disposed of includes
the franchise of the company the stona
power house at Glen Echo and the acre of
land comprising its site, the thirty-foot
wide right of way from the junction with
the Georgetown and Tenleytown road and
the terminus of the line on the Conduit
road. all the rolling stock, consisting of six
motor cars and two trailers, and all the
machinery, wires, poles, ETC.. used in oper-
atfng the road, together with the electric
iighting plant which is used to illuminate
the company's property and the grounds

Is the weil-known lawyer of this city, was
absent from Washington today From other
and reliable sources it was learned that
the owner of the notes to secure which the
deed OF trust was given is the Westing-
house Electric Company, and that the cor
poration wishes to receive payment of the
balance due for its equipment of the line,
amounting to $4,000 or $4,000.
The Glen Echo railroad was built sew
eral years ago when the boom in suburban
District real estate was at its height. 1t
ne
ment CT the real estate at Glen Echo inau-
gurated by the Baltzley brothers, and at
one time it was believed that it would be
the sole means of communication with a
thriving and thickly populated suburb. AL
most coincideptly with the completion of
the road, however, the boom ceased, and
Tor the past two or three years the road
mas received but a precarious patronage.
Several northern capitalists have been
recently examining the property with a
view to its requirement at private terms
and the news of the proposed sale at pub
lie auction struck them with considerable
surprise.

1t Will Be in the Nature of n General
Inquiry.
The case involving the trial Of Detective
Proctor, growing out of the arrest Of Geo.
Maxwell and Miss Fyran under the Ed
munds law. Will be heard Tuesday. The
hearing, it Is thought, will not take place
before the regular trial board. but
will be in the nature Of an inquiry
concerning the methods employed in the
case When the evidence, taken in this
way, shows just what was done and by
whose orders then the Commissioners will
decide upon the question of who shall come
in for share of the censure. if any cen
sure is deserved. While there will be
charges against only Detective Proctor. 1t
is the object of the Commissioners to have
a full investigation so that the actions of
all persons connected with the~case may be
shown. 1t Is thought probable that the
proof may put the responsibility on more
than one person, and it was stated in po-
lice circles this afternoon that the action
of the Commissioners will be such that
there will be chance for one or more
members of the force to be promoted.

MANUAL TRAINING.
Special Exhibition of Public School
Work.

A special exhibition representative of the
manual training shop work of the first six
divisions of the public schools was held to-
day at the shops, 626 street northwest.
The invitations were extended by Superin-
tendent of Public Schools William B. Pow
ell. and were sent to the educational COM
mittees of the board of trade and Civic
Center, the citizens associations, labor or
CARNATIONS and officers of the Smithsonian
Institution, Columbian University, school
officials and number of business men
An interesting feature of the display to-
day was number of photographs showing
the standard manual training has reached
in other cities. The pictures were Of mag
nificent looking buildings in Boston, Provi-
dence, Toledo, St. Louis, St. Paul, Denver
and elsewhere. each of which cost from
$4,000 to 100000 Instead of being at the
head of the list as regards manual train
ing, according to Mr.. j. A. Chamberlain of
the manual training department of The
local schools Washington is about the foot.
The tool work is only a part of the sys-
tenn of manual work, which begins with
the f1rst grade. At the start 1t Is very
simple, consisting largely of exercises with
the hand and without tools. This hand
training is. of vast Importance as a pre-
liminary to the tool work. The exhibit to-
day showed every branch of the work
from that of seventh grade pupils to the
result OF the training of the fourth year
High School class. The dynamo and en-
CINE constructed by several of the bows

commissioners Never Thought of Put

During a meeting of the board of Com
uissioners this afternoon the discussion of
the property owners In Glenwood cemetery
at the pubic meeting at Masonic Hall last
night was incidentally mentioned. Com
missioner Ross, speaking for the board to
a reporter of The Star, said:
1.-THE Commissioners are surprised that
the gentlemen who spoke last night do not
read the newspapers. On the 18th instant
the Commissioners gave out a statement,
which was published in The Star that day,
covering this very matter. Why there has
never been any idea on the part of the
BOARD OF Commissioners to project a street
through this cemetery. Some time ago a
tentative map was prepared in the engineer
oepartment showing certain streets upon
the ground occupied by a portion of the
cemetery, which was understood by the
commissioners was not now to be used for
pGrial purposes. We requested the views
OF the Representatives of the cemetery re-
eardlng this, and sketches were sent 10 the
attorney OF the cemetery. The Commits
sione1S nave never taken an initial step to-

Two Clerks Held on Different Serious
CharE -.
Two clerks in Denty's grocery, on NJ
street southeast, came to grief in the Police
Court this morning. One of them, John
Sessford, thirty years old, was accused of
having committed an assault on Aria
Jones, seventeen-year-old girl, with IN
tent to rape. The girl. whose parents are
dead, came here a month ago from Fred
erick county, Nd, and Sessfcrd first met
evening he called at her house and they
went out together for a walk She charges
that while crossing a lot not far from her
house he threw her down and made an
unsuccessful attempt to assault her. A
witness in the case said that when the girl
came home her clothing was torn and
covered with dust and she made complaint
against the young man.
The defendant denied the charge and
claimed that he had been out with her be-
fore, which she denied. He charged that
the girl was angry about some money and
that was why she made the charge against
him.
In his defense he called as witness
young man by whom he expected to prove
certain statements, but the young man did
not remember the occurrences mentioned
by the prisoner.
Judge Miller sent the case to the grand
jury and fixed the bond at $1,000. Sessford
asked for a reduction Of the bail, which was
refused
A Young man named Albert Cole, also
employed as a clerk in the store. was ac-
oused of having attempted to tamper with
the prosecuting witness by offering her $40
10 withdraw the charge.
The young woman gave evidence against
him, and while he denied the charge, he
admitted that he had called to see her
about the matter. and that he had talked
with her in court.
Judge Miller said he could not under
stand what ever possessed the man to even
attempt such a thing, and fined him $50 or
sixty days in Jail.

Revelations Of a Conspiracy Of In
cendiaries.
ELEVEN PERSONS HAVE BEEN ARRESTED
Three Araigned and Held for
Examination.
AGENTS NOT THE PRINCIPALS

NEW YORK, June 22.-Another arrest
that of Koppel Friedland-was made today
in connection with the revelations OF an
arson and conspiracy to defraud fire in
surance companies.
Tie specific charge against Friedland is
that ne was concerned in the fire which
destroyed the Cohen & Co. shirt factory
at II Willett street, on January "a, 1884.
The conspirators get $4,000 by the fire and
paid the fire-bugs $1,000.
Friedland is interested in insurance COM
panies, and makes the eleventh prisoner
arrested for connection with the alleged
conspiracy.
George w. Holt, who was arrested last
night, is an elderly man. He is one of the
best known fire loss adiusters in the city.
For many years he represented in this city
the Imp rial Insurance Company of Lon
don. He has been for long time a MEM
Der of Plymouth Church, Brooklyn. He is
married and has two grown-up daughters
Holt is reputed to be wealthy.
Holt LEM and Friedland were arraigned
before Judge Allison in chambers today.
All three prisoners pleaded Not guilty"
Holt promised to deposit $4,000 bail in
cash with the city chamberlain, to await
examination on July 10. Friedland was
held In $4,000 bail for examination on
Tuesday, and LEM was held in 5000 for
examination on Wednesday.
The charge against LEM Is bribery in
connection with the fires. When, several
weeks ago, Schoenholz was arrested for
arson 1t was stated that among those who
would probably be arrested in connection
with the firebug conspiracy was a lawyer,
who had been the legal adviser of the con-
spirators, and really aided to direct their
affairs.
The confession of Mich. one of the ac-
cused men. is alleged to point to an at
tache Of the district attorneys office as
the person alluded to.
Assistant District Attorney Davis said
today that the men arrested so far are
merely the agents and not the principals
In the frebug conspiracy. Next week will
see some further developments in the mat
ter: Some prominent people remain yet
to be arrested and he will apply for bench
warrants on Monday next.

AN ELECTRIC LOCOMOTIVE.
Speed of Eighty Miles m Hour Was
Attained.

NANTASKET. Mass, June 22.-The sec
ond trial of electricity as a motive power
on the Nantasket Beach division Of the
New York, New Haven and Hartford rail-
road took place last night with as much
secrecy characterized the first test and
the result insures the success of the ex-
pertinent. The trial last night was with
an electric locomotive specially geared for
speed and the small party of officials who
were aboard during the trip state that
for three miles on the straight away track
between tere and Hull the locomotive trav-
eled at an average speed of eighty miles an
hour. They claim that greater speed could
have been attained had it not been for q
hot box.
Another electric locomotive was attached
to train of three passenger coaches and
a heavy steam locomotive, the whole
Weighing over 1I5 tons, and easily moved
them at rate of speed equal to that of a
steam locomotive. The starting and stop
ping were especially prompt.
The officials are greatly pleased with the
tests.

WHY THE DUKE RESIGNED.
He Had No Idea of Being Taken Mt
His Word.

LONDON, June 2o.-The true story Of
the determination" of the Duke of Cam
bridge to resign his post of commander-in-
chief of the British army, announced in
the house Of commons yesterday by the
secretary of state for war, Mr.. Campbell
Zimmerman (as exclusively cabled to the
Associated Press yesterday afternoon)
throws new light upon the subject.
There has long been a strong agitation
against the duke, and the government, It
appears, acting on the principle Of expe-
diency, caused it to be known that it would
materially assist the government If the
Duke of Cambridge would offer to resign.
Consequently, the duke, not suspecting
that his offer would be accepted, sent in his
papers to the queen, and the latter handed
them to the government, under the impress
sion that they would be returned.
The government, however, accepted the
papers as a definite resignation, and Mr..
Campbell Bannerman made the announce
ment to the house which was the last
thing expected or desired by the queen or
by the Duke Of Cambridge.

SIR JULIAN.s DILEMMA.
DiscOntent Over His Signing the st.
Louis Resolutions.


Copyrighted by the Associated Press)
LONDON, June 22-The eloquent set of
resolutions. which were drawn up by Col.
Clayton McMichael. proprietor of the
Philadelphia North American, on the COM
pletion of the maiden trip across the At
lantic of the new American liner st. Louis
and which the obliging British ambassador
at Washington, Sir Julian Pauncefote, I'M
suspectingly signed. has landed that diplo-
mat into fresh heap of trouble. The
Crnard and White Star line people are fu-
rious at the wording of the resolutions,
which declared that the st. Louis had,
under American auspices, inaugurated a
new era in the history of ocean traffic, and
brought their influence to bear upon certain
members of parliament, with the result
that the matter was brought before the
house of commons, as already cabled to the
Associated Press
But the explanation furnished by the par
hamentary secretary of tine foreign office,
Sir Edward Grey, that the British ambaS-
sador did not sign the resolutions in his
official capacity is not satisfactory to the
Ell glish shipowners. They say that Sir
Julian should have remembered that an
ambassador has no private capacity, and
that the statement will be used to adver-
tise the American line to the detriment of
the British lines. which, they claim. have
II yariably proved their superiority.
The comment of the English newspapers
upon the subject is altogether of a ma
ture calculated to render Sir Julian
Pauncefote unhappy. For instance, one
newspaper remarks:
English diplomats are as clay in the
hands of sharp Yankee
The paper referred to then recalls the
Sackville-West incident, and adds: 'Sir
Julian Pauncefote is now cleveriy caught
in thoroughly American manner"
In an interview on the subject with Col.
Clayton McA1ichael the latter said: Il
certainly made the resolutions as strongly
American as I could; probably Sir Julian
Paul-cefote did not read them carefully.
He was asked to sign them as a distin-
guished passenger, and, being the agree
able gentleman he is, he could not well
refuse. The resolutions were circulated at
dinner time and no one showed any OBJ
lection to signing"
Sir Julian Pauncefote was asked by a
representative of the Associated Press If
he wished to make a statement on the
subject; but he said he had nothing fur
Their to add to the explanation furnished
by Sir Edward Grey in the house of COM
mons.
