DEACONs IN DISTRESS.
They Paid S4OO for $1,000 Worth of
Green Goods.

Ihcy raid 800 for $4,000 Worth of
Green Goods.
Saturday night two colored men, well
dressed, and whose appearance indicated
that they were. perhaps, ministers of the
gospel, called on Sergt. Perry at police
headquarters to tell him of the misfor-
tunes of a friend. Instead Of being minis
ters, they were only deacons and Sunday
school teachers, so they said, in an Oxford,
Ala, church. John Kersey and Henry
Green were the names they gave. 1t soon
became apparent from their statements
that they had been victimized by green
goods men, and when Sergt. Perry as
serted his belief that such had been the
case, they admitted that they had parted
with 800, and had obtained therefor only
81 and some green paper. One of them had
received a circular from the swindlers, who
seem to thrive in New York city, and the
fact that he could get 5000 in counterfeit
money for only $40O in genuine greenbacks
led him to believe that he could enjoy a
from active life if he succeeded in getting
the amount mentioned in paper which
would be accepted as money.
From Oxford, Ala, the deacons went to
Atlanta, and their friends believed they
were going off on a pleasure trip. From
Atlanta they telegraphed John Comas at
Bethlehem, Pa, that they would meet him.
They did meet him, and the usual result
him. and were given a box in which was
ths DOODLE" a roll Of green paper with the
dollar bill on the outside.
Don't open the box until you reach
home" they were told, but when they
reached this city and stopped at the Phil
adelphia House. their desire to count their
wealth caused them to open the box. Then
1t was that they made the discovery. Later
the swindled deacons left for their home to
tell the contributors to the 800 fund how
they had been swindled.

Result of Mary PrOctor's Thfevfnx
Expedition Saturday Night.
Mary Proctor and BERTHE Jenifer, col
ored girls, made the rounds of a number of
stores Saturday night, and had succeeded
in getting in good supply of Easter goods
before Precinct Detective Sutton and Po-
lieeman McDaniels arrested them. Mary
Proctor, who is eighteen years old, said
she came here Friday two weeks ago from
Warrenton, Va, to go in service. She went
to the house of Mrs. Jenifer, on L street,
to board, and Saturday night she got Ber-
tie Jenifer, who is thirteen years old, to go
out with her, and when they reached 7th
street they went In number Of stores,
and the loss of goods resulted. The stores
they visited were those of Lansburgh
Bros. Kann & Sons, Kings Palace and W.
H. StolPs shoe store.
This morning the prisoners were In
Judge M.ller's court on charge of theft.
and it was apparent from their statements
that the big girl did the stealing and had
the younger one to assist her.
Mary denied that she stole any Of the ar
t!cles. and claimed that she bought the
shoes and a child's cap.
Their plan was to knock articles from
the counters and then put them under
their skirts
IF you've only been here two weeks and
have done all this" remarked the court,
II don't know what you would do IL you
remained here two months"
IFS very entic,ng to a girl fresh from
the cornfe]d," remarked Lawyer Moss,
when she comes here and goes into such
magnificent stores"
"Enticing, is it?" asked the court ''Then
she should have remained in the cornfield. :"
Mary was sent to the reform school dur
ing minority, and BERTHE was released un-
der a suspension OF sentence because of
her age, and also for the reason that she
had been led astray by the older girl

Of the Virginia Jockey Club will in a few
days begin the preparation OF a program
for meeting which it is proposed shall be

Is confident he will have 1t in suitable shape

than enough horses, which are being pre-
pared at the Alexander Island track.
The st. Asaph meeting will not 1t is said,
antagonize the Benning meeting. The lat
ter track is In fine shape, and the many i'm
provements there, heretofore described are
rapidly approaching completion. About all
OF the stables are already filed, and there
Will be such an overflow of horses that the
stables at the Ivy City track will be utilized
The horses at the Benning track are all
well. and their condition is all that could be
desired. Every morning, and not infre-
quently In the evening, the track is well
filled with horses at work, and, they are
already attracting great attention. The

The Chess Game Adjourned.
THE WRECK OF THE TOBIN.
An Admiralty Cnsc That Involve
Much Testimony.


Much Testimony.
Judge Cox, holding the United States Dis
trict Court. this morning handed down a
decree in the case Of Charles Burnett and
others agt. Charles G. Smith and Charles
G. Smith, jr., in which a judgment is rem
dered against the Smiths as lessees of the
wharf at which the schooner Ellen Tobin,
belonging to Burnett and others, was
wrecked in August, 1893, by reason of being
run through by a large rock This admir-
atty suit has now been pending for more
than two years, and 1t was during last
summer that Judge Cole decided that the
respondents, Smith and Smith the younger,
were responsible for the damages to the
vessel, and as Is usual in such cases re-
ferred the case to Col James G. Payne as
special commissioner TO assess the amount
Of the damages. Col. Payne reported the
value of the vessel to be 5000, but the
libellants, by their proctor Randall Hagner,
excepted to the commissioners report on
the ground that the commissioner had de-
cided the case by comparing the vessel
with barks and briggs engaged in off-shore
trade and not with vessels engaged in the
coasting trade, as should have been done,
as the Ellen Tobin was a schooner engaged
in the coasting trade exclusively and pro-
tected in her business by the United States
statutes, which bar foreign vessels from
competition in the coasting trade.
Judge Cox sustained the libellants' ex-
ceptions, and after passing an order of
March TO- 1896, in which he decided to take
certain testimony which had been rejected
by the commissioner offered in rebuttal of
the comparison Of barks and brigs-in open
court-aS is often done in admiralty cases
he now increases the amount Of the value
Of the schooner to $500, and awards in
terest on that sum from the date of the
wrecking of the vessel, and in addition
/ some 81 1,2U0, which had to be paid by the
owners in order to have the cargo OF
broken stone pumped out Of the vessel Sc
that the wreck might be removed.
Randall Hagner represented the libel
lants, and Messrs. Nathaniel Wilson and
Job Barnard the respondents.
Some two thousand pages Of typewriter
testimony was taken in the case, besides
| a veritable picture gallery OF photographs
and some bushels Of models and plats.
The vessel, which originally cost $50, ,001
was claimed to be worth $1,000 when
wrecked. and after her destruction was
sold for s25 the purchasers rebuilding her
at the cost Of some $1,000
