James A beverly and Nelson Thurston
were arIaigned before Judge Cole yesterday
morning on the charge of having murdered
Charles E johnson here on February ; last.
Upon advice of his attorney, Thomas J.
Taylor, Beverly pleaded not guilty. Thurs
ton, by George X. Trivett, as attorney,
filed demurrer.
Argument was heard upon this before
Judge Cole and the demurrer was over
rueld. Mr.. Trivett, who was considerably
indisposed, argued that the Indictment
was not sufficiently explicit i'll its Large
against ThUrston. II stated that lie melted
the murder and a:Ged in accomplishing il i,
but did not tell what means Ilo had used,
nor in ether way describe what lie had done

ficiently definite in its averments, and in his
position was sustained by Judge Cole

The annual meeting of the Civil Service
Reform Association of the District takes
place on the evening of May 10in thelecture
hall of. Columbian University, corner of
Fifteenth and II streets northwest The
meeting will be of unusual interest, from
the fact that it is to be addressed by the
Secretary of Agriculture and Hon. James
H Eckels, Comptroller OF the Currency.
These gentlemen will speak on the opera
tions of the civil service law from the
standpoint of practical rather than theo-
retic civil service reformers.

CAN'T BORROW RUSSIA'S COIN.
NO OFFER TO LOAN UNCLE SAM
MADE BY THE CZAR.

story AflOat Says the Russian Cow
ernment Was willing to Advance
This Country s4OO,OOO.OOO in Gold.
This Country EnjOined From BOr-
rowing From Any European Ma
tiOn by the Monroe Doctrine.
Washington, Dec. 25-Secretary Carlisle
to-day declined to say anything for pub
hcatOn concerning story printed here
that Russia stood ready TO loan the Unit
ed States S4O0.OOOOOO in gold, and that the
United States was considering the ac-
ceptance of the offer.
The story goes further and says the
offer has been pending since early in the
present administration. A high treasury
official, possessing the entire confidence of
Secretary Carlisle says he never heard of
the original offer and does not believe
such an offer is in existence. The treas
ury officials say this story is absurd as
the United States has already, during the
past two years, sold S164, $4,000 of bonds to
obtain gold upon which it is now paying
a high rate Of interest, and if our policy
permitted it the United states had GER
tainly rather have borrowed from friend
ly power than TO have increased its
national debt as 1t has. 1t is
pointed out, too, that the application
of the Monroe doctrine, which prevents
our interference in European political af-
fairs, as well as It prevents European
powers interfering in territorial affairs on
this continent, would stop the United
