amy.
Owing to the absence of her counsel,
Thomas C. Taylor, she declined to plead,
and the court ordered plea OF not guilty.
Miss Lilly, or Mrs. Goodman. or Mrs.
Crosley, appeared in court this morning
wearing a neat-fittiug gown of black and
a iaunty little hat, with a veil. She had
a self-satisfied air.
The husbands of the young woman are
quite 10th to prosecute her, and lt will
be remembered that when her bail was
fixed at $500 by Judge Miller In the po-
lice court both husbands went out and
tried to obtain a surety for their joint wife.
Husband No. 1 bas expressed desire to
take his wife back and forgive her. Miss
Lilly stated in the police court that she
really didn't know she was doing wrong,
and thought she would be permitted to
marry any one she chose.

new QUESTION is RAISED
Metropolitan Should Transfer to the
Seventh Street and Other Lines.
President Newbold Was Expected
But Did Not Arriye-Situation
Is Unchanged.

The public continuesdt to beinconvepienc ced
in dozens OF instan ces by the lack or trans
fer ia cilities between the Metropolitan
and Belt Line street railways. The Conl-
nlissioners are too busy with ordinary
affairs to take up the case. though there is
apparently a wide-open door for their in
reference.
Competent attorneys consider that they
have the best ground for action to enforce
the clause of the Metropolitan Company's
charter requiring transfers to be made. On
the other hand, the Commissioners, ac-
cording to Maj. PowelIs statement, pre-
fer that some Individual, or else the Belt
Line Company, shall take the matter TO
the courts. .
During the delay passengers pay ain extra
fare or walk, and there is not mucn attention
paid to the convenience of those who are
willing to pay for tile extension.
President Newboid, Of the Belt Line,
was expected here to-day, but at Noon
had not arrived. General Manager Gray
said there was no change in the situation
regarding transfers SO far as he knew.
He had heard nothing frum President Phil
lips, of the Metropolitan Company, regard
ing plans for effectng a new transfer ar
rangement.
A cali was made upon President Phillips,
but he was reported out on the road 1t
was considered doubtful If he could be
found to-day.
A new question raised by the termination
of the transfer agreement with the Belt
Line and lexington Companies, under Presi-
dent Phillips orders, is whether the law
does not require the Metropolitan to make
reciprocal transfer arrangements with
the Washington and Georgetown road at
Seventh and F streets
The provision is that the Metropolitan
Company shall make transfers on mutual
terms with any road with which it con-
meets. This would also require an agree
ment with the Tenleytown line at Thirty
second and streets, Georgetown and with
the Chevy Chase road at Ninth and U
northwest. As these roads secure rapid
transit one of the objections alleged to have
been made by President Phillips to the
Belt Line is removed in their cases.

The citizen. (Frederick City, Md.) 1895-1923, 1895-10-04

RECENTLY in a copious editorial,
emblazoned with quotations aud to-
tally misleading in character, the Bal
timore Sun endeavors to further cloud
the already hazy vision of its partisan
readers, by a mlsapplication OF the
words ''hired agents" as used by Sen
ator Gorman in reference to the men
employed by the Sun TO write up It's
editorials and edit its unreliable news
articles. The Sun tries to make believe
that the speaker included in his mean
ing all the labOrers in the State and
put them in disrepute. The San fur
Their urges every man who works for
his daily bread and earns it by the
sweat of his brow, to vote the Republi.
can ticket, and by so doing, sound
the death knell of this "foe of the
woIkingman." 1t is the PLAIN truth
and the statement caunot be contro-
verted by the injection of deliberate,
unqualified falsehood, that Senator
German only directed his words to
those men on the staff of the San and
engaged in the present nefarious course
which that paper has taken against
the Democratic party. Nor did
he include newspaper men generally,
as the San alleges. TO have done this
would have been as unnatural as it
would have been direct blow to those
foremost in refuting the flimsy doc
trines which the Sun and other papers
of like ilk construct in their private
sanctums and flaunt to the public gaze
as popular dictums. The Senator used
the words "hired agents" and not
"hirelings," as the Sun charges. We
venture to assert that no man in public
life has a higher regard for the work
ingman or those engaged in newspa-
per work than Senator German, and
this effort on the part of the San to
transform daylight into darkness for
personal reasons, which are neither
honest nor respectable, will revert to
its own consternation. The men en-
ployed by the Sun are not working in
this campaign for glory, nor be-
cause they conscientiously agree with
the proprietor of the SIN and his pol
icy, but solely because they are paid
employees and must color their writ
ings to suit the will Of the man who
pays them. This is what the Senator
meant when he used the words "hired
asents'to show that. the editorials in
that paper do not. all come from the
pen of Mr., Edwin +. Abel. This is
only sample of the manner in which
the Sun is using its formerly respected
columns for purely debased purposes.

On JANUARY 10, 1892, the General
Assembly of Maryland voted Arthur
i. German to succeed himself as Uni
ted States Senator over Lloyd Lowudes,
the present Republican candidate for
Governor, for term of six years from
March the Alb. 1898, ami on January
1921, elected Charles II. Gibson To- fill
the uneXpired term of Ephraim X.
Wilson TO the United States Senate
which ends March the 4th, 1897. The
term of Senator German expires on
March the 4th, 1899. We publish the
above information for the benefit of
those who are in ignorance of the true
facts in the case. From what we read
in the Sun, Netcs and other converted
Republican newspapers, there can be
no doubt but that the great fight they
are making against Senator German
and the Democratic party conveys the
impression that he is fighting tor his
re election and that it is direct per-
sonal benefit. Such is not the case.
however. The Legislature of 1896, tie
members of which will be elected at
the forthcoming election, will appoi
a successor to Senator Gibson aud not
Senator German, whose time expires
in 1899 and the legislature to be elected
in 1897 names his succassor Manu-
persons think the Assembly of 1896 is
the one to re-elect him or name his
successor. OF course, the Sun and News
desire the impression to prevail that
this is the fight of Senator German for
his own supremacy. The legislature
of 1898 and not the one of 1896 appoints
the successor to our present senior SEN
ator.

SENATOR GORMAN'S WORK,
Some Comments From New
York Democratic Newspaper.
New York Mercury.


York Democratic Newspaper.
New York Mercury.
1t is an easy matter to deride and
abuse Senator German. Talk is chean
But those who seek to ease their minds
III that way should bear in mind that
but for Senator Germans persistent
opposition to certain features of the
original Wilson bill the deficit in the
treasury would have been several
times larger than ii. is, and the bond
issue to date would be nearer three
hundred millions than one hundred
and fifty.
1t is now plain to everybody that
but for Senator Gorman's discriminate
ing opposition the tariff would have
been lamentable failure, and the fl
nances of the country would now be in
condition which would now pre-
clude the possibility of Democratic
victory anywhere this year, or at the
general election next year.
Our Republican friends tell us that
the aforementioned conditions exists
now, but it is case of the wish being
father TO the thought. The outlook
for Democratic success at the polls is
steadily improving. Despite Republi-
can Boosting, aad in some quarters,
Democratic fears, there is now very
little doubt that all of the Democratic
States which vote this year will remain
firmly anchored in the Democratic
column. Furthermore, New York is
likely to be redeemed, at least so far as
the State ticket is concerned, and there
is an even chance that the Democrats
will secure control of the Ohio Legis-
lature.

Prosecuting ATTORNEYS.

The Washington Post says: "Incom-
potency of prosecuting attorneys is one
of the chief contributors to maladmin-
istration fjustice. Reports of proceed
ings in criminal courts througout the
country show that a large proportion
of these officials do not know how to
frame an Indictment that will stand
even a slight attack from the opposing
counsel. Innumerable indictments are
quashed by reason of defects that are
obvious to the average lawyer. This
delays and often defeats justice, and it
needlessly and greatly increases the
immense cost of maintaining the courts
and their appurtenances.
But bad as this is, it is not the worst
of the results of incompetency in these
officials. 1t is bad enough to frame an
Indictment that is sure to fall under
the first, but it is far worse to get a
grand jury to indict when there is no
proof of guilt. In the former case ig-
norance alone may be responsible for
the costly blunder, and the people, hav-
ing elected an ignoramus, are expected
to be tolerant of his shortcomings. But
malice-a mean, degrading malice
shows up in the latter case 1t is true
that the grand jurors ought to know
better than to indict without such evil
dence as will make prima facie case,
but they are not lawyers, and they gen.
orally submit to the control of the
prosecuting attorney. Thus it happens
that local prejudice and unfounded
suspicion find an agent in that official,
and men and women, guiltless of of
tense, and against whom there is no
evidence, are indicted, imprisoned, and
finally arraigned. At that point the
prosecution ends, for the time has come
when proof is needed. Having no
proof, the prosecutor moves the dis
charge of his victim.

will elect United States Senator to
succeed Senator ellison. If Democrats
want Republican sent to the Senate
they will vote against the Democratic
nominees on the Democratic ticket for
this county. The next Legislature will
elect two Police. Commissioners for
the City of Baltimore. Ifany Demo-
crat in this county wants the City of
Baltimore to be controlled by major
ity of Republicans in the Police Board,
who will have the power to appoint
negro policemen, they will vote against
the Democratic nominees for the Leg
