PROTECTING T RAIN MEN
Few Railroads Comply With the
Grab Iron" Law.
lard Times Prevented the Equipme emit
and Many Roads Ask for an
Extension Of Time.

rev railroads have complied with the
law passed of Congress in March, 1893,
requiring hand holds" grab irons" and
standard draw-bars to be placed on all
freight cars as lfe-saving precaution
for the benefit Of trainmen. The time given
In which to comply with the law-over two
years-was supposed to be ample. Yet the
reports sent in response to the circular
sent out by the interstate commerce COM
mission month ago show that almost
none of the roads have done what the
law requires. They state that the hard
times prevented. The Pennsylvania and
the Reading roads have put the grab-irons
on all their new cars, but a great majority
of the vast number of old cars in use on
those roads are still without them.
Hearings Arranged.
Secretary Moseley has had several con-
ferences with the officials of various east
ern roads and a hearing is to be given
them next Friday before the interstate
commerce commission with a view 10 Sc
curing an extension of time to enable the
roads to obey the law The New York,
Lake Erie and Western has been granted
an additional six months in which to equip
its cars as required. This road is in the
running expenses, so that 1t has no NOR ey
with which to provide the grab-irons. This
is the plea of all the roads. July % the
commission will grant hearings to several
other roads that have petitioned for extern

Louisiana Avenue Being Cleared by
the Merchants.
There was a scene of unusual activity
along Louisiana avenue between 9th and
10th streets this morning. where a number
of men were engaged tearing away the
permanent structures in order to comply
with the law and keep within the four feet
Limit. This is the result Of the so-called OBJ
structon cases tried in the Police Court in
which cases Prosecutor Pugh made such a
strong fight. The merchants have until
Wednesday to remove the distractions and
clear the sidewalk, and most OF them are
SO arranging their places that they will not
have to retire from business, although they
will not have the use of much of the
space in front of the houses.
This morning in Judge kimbalrs court
there were three cases against merchants
for alleged Illegal occupation of the side
walk. The defendants We're MesSrs Geo.
w. Joyce ana R. E. Joyce, Charles Walter
and B. F. McCaully. The latter keeps a
livery stable on 14th street, while the other
defendants own carriage factories.
1t was charged that the defendants al
lowed carriages to remain on the sidewalk
longer than the law allows. Several police
men were called as witnesses in the case.
but their evidence was favorable to the de-
PENDANTS.
Mr.. E. H. Eggeston of the Agricultural
Department made the complaint. He had
passed the places on the day charged, and
could not say they remained there longer
than the law allows. There was no proof
that the law was violated. and the charges
were dismissed.

DEATH ACCIDENTAL,
Inquest Over a Man KiIIey by an Ice
Wagon.


Henry Johnson, a colored man about fifty
years old, met with a fatal accident yester-
day morning near sth and NJ streets north
west and this afternoon his tragic death
was investigated by Coroner Hammett. He
was riding a tricycle. at the time, and when
he collided with an ice wagon driven by
Charles Zimmerman he went beneath the
heavy vehicle and the wheels passed over
him. The rear wheel passed over his head
and body, and the unfortunate man died in
few minutes after the accident occurred.
Early yesterday morning johnson stopped
at the house Of his former employer, T. N.
Brown, No. 1910 18th street northwest, and,
without going in to ask permission, he bor-
rowed the tricycle. and rode OF with it.
When he got near Sth and NJ streets, and
saw the ice wagon approaching, he made
an effort to get out OF the way of the
vehicle, but did not succeed. The driver
pulled up his horses. but it was too late
when they stopped, for the rear Wheel had
passed over the man and inflicted the in
jury which proved fatal in few minutes.
Policeman Rickles called the patrol wagon
and the body of the dead man was taken
to the morgue Charles Zimmerman, the
driver Of the Ice wagon, was held in Gus
tody.
An hour or more after the fatal accident
occurred Mr.. Brown called at the second
precinct station to report the loss of his
tricycle. He found the badly damaged ma
chine in the yard.
Accidental Death.
The evidence of several witnesses who
appeared at the inquest showed that the
deceased failed to handle the tricycle.
properly, and that the driver was not re-
sponsible for the affair. A verdict of acct

Revising Building Regulations.

1t Is proposed by the District Commits
siopers to appoint commission, consisting
of the inspector of buildings. an architect
and a builder, to make a revision of the
present building regulations. This is sub
ject in which Mr.. Truesdell is much inter-
ested. He has given good deal of per-
sonal attention to the building regulations,
and a result number of changes and
additions have been made. Mr. Truesdell
considers that while the building regula-
lions Of the District are quite complete
yet they lack in general the feature Of ap-
plication to specific conditions. In other
words. he thinks that they are too general
in character The regulations that are In
force in other cities Of this country, as well
as in many Of the principal cities Of Eu-
rope, have been occurred and will be studied
by the commits sion.

LISTS entitled to ask how 1t happens that
In 1890, for example. a rise of 14lt marks
in price is accompanied by only one more
theft per thousand. In the main. 1t Is, OF
course, true that an excessive price for
staple article of food will tend to drive
many who cannot procure 1t into crime. On
the other hand. the thoroughgoing Stats
tictan might do well to remember that
mankind do not live for rye alone. Al
though that desirable cereal were to be
had everywhere without money and with
out price, It Is to be feared that there
would still be a fair proportion OF ADULTS
ner thousand whose covetousness would
inpel them to the Illegal acquisition OF
that which is their neighbors'.

THE WRONG LANGUAGE.
A Russian Woman Who Thought
Americans Talked German.

| From the New York Telegram.
| Here is queer tale of metropolitan life,
which is vouched for at the college settle
ment in Rivington street. 1t illustrates the
| cosmopolitan character of the city and
| shows in a singularly striking manner how
| little We know neighbors on the next
street and how little they know of u.s.
| They have a free kindergarten at the col
| 1ege settlement for the benefit of the poor
of the neghborhood. One morning a wo-
| man appeared at the door with little child
and was met by one of the teachers The
woman began talking volubly in an un-
known tongue, and seemed much surprised
| at not heing able to understand the teach
er's replies
What are your" asked the teacher in
English. Are you German-Deutch?'
The woman seemed very much mystified
and thoroughly dlsheartened. She only
| shook her head IN a dismayed sort of way
| and said nothing. The teacher sent for an
| Interpreter
Does your little child understand En-
| glish?" asked the interpreter in German
English" responded the woman in the
| same language. What is English? NV
| little girl speaks the language of the coun-
try: and so do l. but the lady here does not
| understand me-"
why, the lady speaks the language of
the country said the Interpreter. "She
speaks English, and that is the language
| OF the country"
Al" lOOkeu thoroughly utScOn-
| certed and said nothing. The Interpreter
asked her what her nationality was, for it
was plain that she was not a German. She
spoke that language very poorly.
am Russian, she said, and 1 live
| in Hester street"
How long have you been in the coun-
try?"
Three years.
And didn't you know>that the language
! of the country was Frglish?"
| All. broke out the poor woman, with
sob, when ! came here ! only knew
russian. and l made up my mind 1 would
| get TO be good American and learn the
language the Americans talk When I
moved into Hester street I did not under
stand one word they said there, hut I sup
posed they were Americans and talked the
language of Americans. So I set 20 work
years. TIL now l can understand all that
they say in the tenement and at the mar
kets on the sidewalk, and they can all un-
derstand me when l talk And now to-
day I come here, after three years in the
country and talk to the lady here and she
don't understand and / don't under
stand her. All. 1t is too bad.'
The Interpreter translated the conversa-
ton to the teacher, who was moved to
great pity. The woman sat rocking herself
back and forth. the picture of woe
Madame" said the interpreter, IT am
effort have been thrown away. Americans
talk the English language, and you have
unfortunately lived In a neghborhood
where German and Hebrew only are
spoken. The language you have learned is
German. or at least that sort of mixed
there. I am very sorry for you"
And the woman wipfng her eyes with her
apron, took her little girl by the hand and
went sorrowfully away.

Corn and Crimfnulity.

The German agrarians will hardly be
pleased with Prof. Brentano. who at pres
ent occupies the chair Of political economy
at Munich. and who was formerly the sue
cessor of Roscher at Leipsic While the
agrarians are clamoring loudly for higher
grain prices at any cost, Prof Brentano
unkfndly comes forward with a pamphlet
whose object is to show that a rise or fall
OF price In cereals Is synonymous with
rise or fall of crime. In 1867 Herr Mayer
OF the Bavarian royal statistical bureau
first pointed out the relationship borne by
the price of rye to the number of convic-
tons for theft. Abiding to the years 1885,
81, he declared that every rise of kreut-
zers in the price OF rye appeared to be
accompanied by one additional theft per
100000 Inhabitants, and that the converse
was found true for every fall of kreut-
GERS.
Prof. Brentano's figures apply to the
whole of Germany and are carried down
to more recent period. Here is his COM
parison OF the number of convictions for
theft per 100000 adults with the price of
rye per 1000 kilos, In marks, for the years
1882 to 1891:

During all that time not one COM

either to his conduct toward the men or
as to the language he has used to them,
rrtil now. On the contrary, many of the
employees have frequently expressed their
thanks for his attention to their comfort
and welfare ard their appreciation of the
efforts he has made on their behalf. The
company considers Mr. Boteler efficient
and faithful superintendent, whose charac-
ter and ability have been tested and proved
10y years Of good service. and that its in
terest require his retention in his present
position"

The President of the Columbia Road
ExOnerates Him From the Charges.
Some time ago the employees of the
Columbia Railway Company appointed
committee, consisting Of Messrs w.
F. Dement,, L. H. McMillen and z. B.
Hedgeman, to present to the officials Of
the road an expression Of their griev-
ances against Superintendent Boteler,
who had fallen into disfavor with his sub
ordinates. They formulated their griev-
ances in letter addressed to the president
Of the road, Mr.. w. T. Baker. In reply, Mr..
Baker has sent to the committee a letter
bearing date Of last Saturday. In the
course of the letter he says:
Your complaints against Mr.. Boteler, the
present superintendent, are: First, that in
May, 1894, more than year ago. he loaned
money to an employe of the company and
charged him an usurious rate of interest:
Second, that during the past year, on vari-
GUS occasions, Mr.. Boteler has cursed and
sworn at some of the employees while they
We're performing their duties, and has in
timated them by threats of discharge.
TT Is a fact that applicat ton was made to
Mr.. Boteler for loan of S.. Mr. Boteler
did not have the money, nor did he obtain
it from the company. He obtained it from
his wife to oblige Mr.. Berry, and Berry re-
turned S. as am informed.
Used Profnne Language.
IN respect OF tne second charge, several
witnesses state that Mr.. Boteler has in
several instances. during the last year,
used profane and violent language in giving
orders, but there has been no evidence
whatever Of anything done or said by Mr.
Boteler that can be justly considered as an
attempt to intimidate any of the persons
under his direction. 1t is, Of course, wrong
and it is wholly unbelievable, for any Off
Ger or employee of the company to use
either abusive or profane language to those
who are engaged in the companys bust
ness, and the use of such language is for
hidden, and is made the subject of severe
censure. But while the language used by
MIR. Boteler on the few occasions to which
the witnesses refer is reprehensible, 1t is
not regarded a reason for discharging
him from the employment of the company
in whose service he has been for the past
five years; first as driver, then as a con-
ductor. then as stable boss, and, finally, as
superintendent.
