The movement was started by Mr.. Lindsay.
who is employed in the office of the auditor

vision in the whole department. The ag-
gregate sum is now S2i5.45 and this will

gehcy Hospital, where the physicians in
charge are awaiting the result of an opera
ton of trephning which was performed
soon after the accident occurred. Hunters
family consists of a wife and eight children.
The contributions and the offices which have

the team is exceptionally strong, although
the teams which they have played have not

bearing the name of JOHANN

the definite aim OF building up men

THE STEEL TRUST,
1t VIII Not Affect the Prices Of Armor
Plate.

There has been some talk among we'll
posted Congressman to the effect that the
organization of the big steel trust might
affect to large extent the bids on the
new warships for which Congress is about
to provide. and that 1t might even prevent
the building of four ships as row contem-
plated.
Talking on the subject today, a New
York representative said to a Star reporter
that the Navy Department had looked
Into this phase of the gu est;on and had OBJ
tanned promises from the representatives
of the companies making up the trust
that there would be no increase in the price
of armor plate where the government was
concerned. The department also obtained
favorable concessions in the way of cheap
er prices for armor.
The fear was that the trust would be
able to do the government for thou
sands of dollars, and go to the extent, as
stated, of seriously standing in the way of
the building of four new ships. The fore
sight of the Navy Department in obtain
ing concessions and In looking into the sub
ject in advance is commended
The trust people. however, are said to
have realized that If they had advanced
the price Of armor plate on the govern
ment there would at once have been a big
demand for the establishment of an armor
plate plant by the government. The de-
mani might have become a reality and the
trust would have found itself badly Grip
pied. This is probably why the trust made
concessions to the government, 1t is thought.

oLEoMARGARINE CASES.



Indictments.
Messrs. Henry E. Davis and Jere NJ Will
son, counsel for Wilkes C. Prather, Thomas
H Pickford, William B. Matthews and Clar-
ence E. Fowler, indicted last December for
violating the oleomargerine law, today filed
demurrers to the indictments. The demur-
rers charge that the indictments are fatally
defective because. first. that they are not
sufficient in law; second, that the act under
which they are framed is unconstitutional;
third that 1t Is not within the constitutional
power Of Congress to delegate to the COM
missioner of internal revenue, or the Sec
retary Of the Treasury, or any other person.
the authority or power to determine what
acts shall be criminal. and. fourth that said
act does not define what acts done or omit
ted shall constitute criminal offense,
Because of the illness Of Mr.. Davis Judge
Cole postponed the consideration of the mat
ter until next Wednesday afternoon at 3
o'clock. Should Judge Cole then oyerrule
the demurrers, it Is the intention of District
Attorney Birney to call the cases for trial
the next morning In Criminal Court No. /.
1t Is understood that similar objections to
the indictments will be made by all the other
parties indicted for this alleged ofrense.

The New Central Committee About to
be Organized.
Chairman Thomas B. Kalbfus issued a
call today for meeting of the democratic
central committee at No. 1924 E street
northwest next Thursday evening at 8
o'clock. The purpose Of the meeting will
be to orgs.l ize the &C ommittee, and much IN
terest is centered upon the question as to
who will be chosen chairman. While it has
been pretty generally understood that Mr.
Kalbfus would be elected, it now appears
that Mr.. George Killeen has been put for
ward as a candidate, while there are ru-
mors that Mr.. John A. Clarke Is also de-
sirous of the honor.
Mr.. Clarke is not a member of the central
committee, but it is said by some of his
friends that this obstacle can be overcome
by giving him possession Of the proxy of
the delegate from his district Those IA
miliar with tie rules governing the body,
however, declare that no person who holds
q proxy is entitled to hold Office in the COM
mittee.
A vacancy in the committee remains to be
filed, the fourth district, which embraces
part Of Georgetown. not being represented.
The democrats Of that section are endeav-
oring to settle. upon some one for the posi-
ton Of central committeeman. however, and
1t is believed that either Mr.. Edwin Forrest
or Mr.. John Maher will be chosen.

The city of New Orleans and other south
ern river ports have annually suffered Sc
verely from smallpox. the scourge being
carried up and down the stream bv the
crews Of the boats that ply for traffic
along the hundreds of miles of that river
and its tributaries The marine hospital
service last season endeavored to check
this spread Of the disease. and this spring,
in anticipation of the opening of the ac-
tive navigation of the river, Surgeon Hen
ry W.. Sawtelle, in charge Of the New Or
leans district, asked Surgeon General wy
man for authority to take the necessary
steps. This being promptly granted, DR.,
Sawtelle issued a circular to the masters,
agents and owners Of Mississippi river
steamboats, in which he said:
In view of the continued prevalence of
smallpox In this city and the surround
ing country and the danger Of CARRYING the
germs OF the disease from one port to
another on river STEAMBOATS,, by direction
OF the surgeon general Of the service. it ia
proposed to vaccinate the officers and crews
OF outgoing steamers who are not protect
ed by recent successful vaccination or
by previous attack of the disease. a GER
tifcate of vaccination will be given to
each man vaccinated, and to avoid the
possibility of quarantine restrictions Mt
various ports on the rivers, 1t is recon-
mended that no person he emp]oyed On a
river boat unless he produces q certificate
of vaccination. Vaccinations will be made
at the marine hospital office, custom house,
between am. and PIN, and on board
the steamers, II practicable. before sails

1t Is believed that the work OF vaccina ton
as outlined will prove to be a valuable aid

efforts to suppress loathsome disease
Promptly reply was received from Chas.
I. Truslaw, president of the Steamboat
Captains and Owners Exchange, anncupc-
ing tnat the organization had unanimously
agreed that no men should be shinnad m
river boats who could not show certificates
of vaccination.
Consequently, Surgeon Sawtelle has begun
the work, and 1t is hoped that the rate of
smallpox cases in thas section will ha ma
terially reduced this season.
