ANXIOUS ABOUT HIS son.
John II. Brooks Believes His Boy fs
Dead. the Result of Foul Play,

John II. Brooks Believes His Row IN
Dead. the Result of Foul Play.
John H. Brooks, an old colored man. who
lives at No. 1242 1st street southwest, has
asked the police for inforna ton concern
Ing his son, Joseph Brooks, nineteen years
old, who has been missing since June 15
The father fears foul play. He is certain
that his son is dead, and he feels that he
was murdered. The missing young man
was deck hand on the steamer T. V,
Arrowsmith, and left here ,on the 18th of
June for the lower river landings and
return. ~
While making the trip down the river
ne disappeared from the boat, and those
VINO were working with him We're satisfied
that he had fallen overheard and was
drowned. Officers of the boat saw that
BROOKS had been drinking and they no.
ticed that before Alexandria was reached
he was under the influence Of LIQUOR. He
was not drunk, however, nor was he in
capacftated for work, but worked as regu-
larly as usual until the boat reached River
sue Park, and then an entry Of the event
was made on the boats records
II was stated that Joe had been seen to
enter state room in. which were two pas
sengers, and that was the last seen of him
lneSe passengers were interviewed but
they denied that the colored man had been
in the state room. This ended the in
vestigation SO far as is known, and a re-
port was made to the company agents
here.
What the Father Says.
The missing mans father was seen by a
Star reporter today, and he was very anx-
ious about his sons whereabouts He Is
positive that his boy is dead, and thinks
he was probably thrown overheard 1t Is
possible that he went ashore at one of the
landings and did not return to the boat,
although the men on the boat think this
improbable.
Several days ago Mr.. Brooks received
word from down the river that the body
of a man had washed ashore, and the
body, ne thinks. was that of his son. Fish
and crabs had disf1gured the face beyond
recognition, bit the clothing answered
the description of that Worn by the young
man who is missing. His father says that
he wore q knit shirt, blue overalls and a
sack apron, and these kind of clothes he
was informed, We're on the body of the
man found in the river. This body, he
said, was buried near the shore not far
from place called Broadwater, and he
ing OF the body, as he may want to nave
an investigation made and bring the body
here for burial.
1t is thought possible that the young.
man, who had evidently been drinking be-
fore he left here, became intoxicated and
fell from the rail of the boat.
The only thing the police can do is to
hear what the men on the boat have to
say about the affair and then COMMUNE
cate with the authorities of the county
where the dead mans body is said to have
been found.

Judge Miller Will Try to Solve the
Chinese Puzzle This Evening.
Judge Miller will hold a night session of
the Police Court this evening, in order to
finish the hearing of the Chinese conspir-
acy cases, which were started in court
about two weeks ago. The business Of the

judge found 1t impossible to hear them and
dispose of the current business of the
court in the daytime.
The case of Sue Cow. who is employed
in All Sings place, one of the Sam Lee
Company's establishments, has been fin
ished, SO far as the proof is concerned, and
arguments will be heard when the argu-
ments in the other cases are made.
The cases have attracted great amount
of attention, and it is expected that there
will be a large gathering Of ceiestials in
court tonight.
1t is Judge Miller's intention to conclude

The Dog Was Licensed.

Policeman Archambault. who lives on 7th
street northeast, had reason to complain of
one of mis- neighbours pug dogs and chick
ems. He claimed that the dog and fowls
had been visiting his premises and making
the place very disagreeable Mrs. Marie
Carmody, the owner of the alleged pests,
was complained against in the Police Court
this morning for allowing her dog to run
at large.
Lawyer Sillers defended the case, and
called Judge Miller's attention to the act
OF Congress in the matter.
The charge was brought under the po-
lice regulations. which, the judge said,
could not repeal an act of Congress.
1t was shown that the dog was licensed,
and the court said that the dog had a
right to run at large, the tag giving this
right to the animal.
The charge was therefore dismissed.
