ARRESTED IN NEW YORK.
Eugene Doyens and Partners Are In

Inspector Hollinberger received a tele-

of Richmond informing him Of the arrest
in New York of Eugene Boyens, Miss Ida
Lewis and William Lewis, who was known
here as the woman's brother or husband.
No word has been received from the New
York authorities, although Inspector Hol-
llnberger thinks that the New York police
must have notified the Richmond man who
claims to have been swindled to the extent
of 5000.
Eugene Boyens & Co. conducted business

and did quite an extensive business In the
sale of cigar certificates on a Boston firm.

At that time there was a Police Court

Robertson failed to appear before the
grand jury at that time.
Inspector Hollinberger notified Mr.. Rob-

in order to appear before the grand jury

In the meantime, he will send the Police

THE FOURTH OF JUAY.

Celebration by Patriotic Societies mt
the Washington Monument.
There has been a slow but continuous
| tendency on the part of the two Societies
Of the Sons of the Revolution and the sons
of the American Revolution of the District
of Columbia to amalgamate into one great
organization. The present membership OF
the two societies is nearly 1000, and II
Union is consummated it is expected that
there will be material increase IN the
near future.
A joint committee of Sons of the Amer
lean Revolution and Sons of the Revolution
has been appointed by their respective so
cietes. The members of this committee on
the part of the Sons of the American Revo-
luticn w. V. Cox. chairman; John b.
Wight and Earnest Wilkerson, with II. r.
r. Holt, F. f. Grice and w. H. Pearce as
alternates; on the part of the Sons OF the
Revolution, g. F. r. Beale, chairman; Ed
ward d. Appleton and Fred. Huidekooper
with J. H. Yeatman. John b. Larner and
Gaillard Hunt alternates. The duty of this
joint committee is to make arrangements
for social entertainments and patriotic
celebrations, and incidentally to promote
the" growing desire for union of the two
societies in the District of Columbia, which
have long been separated by lines more or
less artificial Both societies have the same
aims. which are: ITO perpetuate the MEM
ory and spirit of the men who achieved
tain and extend he institutions of Ameri-
can freedom to foster true patriotism and
love OF country, and to aid in securing for
mankind all the blessings of liberty"
To Celebrate the Fourth.
A preliminary meeting was held yester-
day at the board of trade rooms, and an
organization was effected by electing Earn
est Wilkerson chairman, and John Brewer
Wight. secretary, of the joint committee.
The Fourth Of July being the next his

Orations will be made by distinguished

which party will be intrusted with the soIy-
ing of this problem. The record of the re-
publican party proves that 1t has always
been in favor of increasing the currency
In keeping with the demands of the coun-
try, but only on the basis that the pur-
chasing and debt-paying power of a dollar,
whether of silver or gold. shall at all times
be kept equal The people will be satisfied
to leave the solving of the currency quas-
ton In the hands of the republican party.
They know that in the future. as In the
past the interests of silver in all it's rela-
tions TO the people can safely be intrusted
to the protecting care of that party. This
entire question as to the future of sill
yer will probably be settled by the great
commercial nations of the world within a
year. Germany and France are seeking
bmetallism, and England is fast turning
In that direction. What the people should
do Is to bring pressure to bear upon their
representatives for the appointment of del
egates to an international conference, with
power to act and insist upon an agreement
and obligation from the nations partici-
pating to maintain the ratio as there
adopted"
Regarding the work of the league he
said:
"This great gathering of young men from
every state in the Union, many of whom
have Travelled thousands of miles. with no
promise of preferment or reward, bears
testimony to the great work this organ
iZation has accomplished, and demonstrates
Its value to the party.
I'm the eighth year OF our organization
we find ourselves grown beyond our expec-
tations. Our conventions are the opening
guns of every campaign. Our deliberations
are listened to with the utmost considera-
ton. and evince the fact that the future of
the league as power for good in the re-
publican party Is assured. AS this organ
tZation Is but auxiliary to that convention.
II can in no way bind the future action Of
the party. We are satisfied that the reg
ular national convention of the party will
have the heart, brain and conscience to
take up all national questions and decide
them wisely and justly. 1t Is our work to
elect not select, candidates. and promote,
rot promulgate. platforms.
The league has no desire to control
party machinery. or attempt in any way TO
interfere with any regular committee in
trusta1 with campaign management. 1t
seeks, however. through its clubs, to make
more popular to all citizens the opportu-
nifty to participate in political affairs and
assume the responsibility. the labor and
the glory OF political service."
Adjourned Until Tomorrow,
H. Clay Evans of Tennessee moved to
refer all resolutions to the committee on
resolutions without debate.
An amendment to refer without reading
was defeated, as the silver men protested.
Mr.. Evans motion prevailed.
The secretary announced that the state
delegations should report their members of
committees on resolutions, league work,
rules and order of business. time and place,
and the committees would meet at pm.
A meeting of the presidents of the state
