was not and demanded a roll-call,
which on being had showed one lack
ing. A moment later Mr.. Bernheisel

order was proceeded with.

CITY LOT FAR MIN G
Arrangements Made to Repeat Last Years
Success
Handsome Results of the Work and
Applicants This Season.

The executive committee appointed by the
board Of managers of the Associated
Charities to direct the operations of the po-
tato farmers Is ready to begin work. An
appropriation of $500 has been made for
the undertaking, and work will begin this
week as soon as the fund is complete. Last
year 1926 was expended in aid of the potato
lot farm work. although s1.100 was placed
In the hands Of the committee, and 1t was
found ample to meet all requirements, and
the results were highly gratifying. Thirty
five persons awaited themselves Of the
chance to work ground and they raised
9lA bushels Of potatoes, 20 bushels and y
quarts of beans. l,5O2 heads of cabbage,
171a bushels of turnips and 5 bushels of
corn. In addition one man sold In season
81 worth of sugar corn. SLIP worth of
parsley and $l.30 worth Of lettuce. Another
sold bushels of toma toes, 800 radishes
and 800 dozens of sweet corn. Many raised
good deal Of small sea Sonable vegetables
which they consumed during the summer.
Fifteen assignments of ground were in the
northeast section OF town, in the south
east. in the northwest, and four in the
county Not more than half the land was
really fit for cultivation.
This year this ground will do better than
last. 1t Is urged that the ground worked
should be fertiiized. If possible. Assign
ments of lots are unfortunately made so
late In the planting season that manure
put on this season 10 not likely to do much
good. Stable manure on potato ground
produces the scab, and is on that account
worse thai none. But IL plowed in deep
In the fall does not injurc the crop so
much. 1t has been suggested that the
potato seed be treated by the corrosive
sublimate solution to prevent scab-some-
thing which could be done at very slight
cost.
Persons having vacant lots they are will
ing should be cultivated are requested to
send descriptions Immediately to ]. b.

tions of money to buy seed and pay for

CRISP SPEAKS OUT
Duty of Free Silver Democrats if They
Dominate at Chicago.
He Says They Should Put q Free Sill
verite on a Free Coinage
Platform.

'It Is my opinion" seid ex-Speaker Crisp
today, that If the advocates Of the free
coinage Of silver should dominate the dem
ocratic national convention. they should
nominate a man pledged to free coinage
and put him on a free coirage platform"
Judge Crisp made this statement to
Star reporter in answer to the question
whether the free coinage men would be
satisfied with a candidate who expressed
friendliness for silver merely to the extent
of promising not to veto free silver bill If
passed by Congress.
Il do not think the party would be content
to rest upon such a policy" continued
Judge Crisp. IF free coinage is declared
for by a majority of the democratic party
in convention assembled, think they will
demand a candidate who shall be an un-
qualified exponent Of that sentiment
Bearing of His Remarks.
This statement coming from a man &C.
certed as the leader of the democratic free
silver forces in the House is regarded as
important in its bearing upon the proposed
candidacy of those persons who, it is said.
will rely upon gaining strength from both
the sound money and free silver wings Of
that they will not attempt to lead tho
party on the financial question, but will
accept the verdict of a majority of the
party on that point.
1t has been claimed that such a plan was
being perfected to unite the two wings of
the party on presidential candidate. pre-
venting at least a split over the presidency
and leaving the free silver men and their
opponents to contest elsewhere over the
main question of money.

A THRILLING RUNAWAY.

Marrow Escape of Many Ladies' From
Serious Injuries.
At 2:35 this afternoon q number of ladies'.
who were standing at the corner of 9th
and D streets northwest miraculously es-
capped what appeared at first sight would
result In instant death. At that hour two
heavy draught horses belonging to Riley
became frightened, and dashed up D street
between 9Th and 9th at breack-neck speed,
running together upon the pavement as
they neared 9th street.
A number Of ladies were standing await
ing car upon the southeast corner. As
the frightened animals dashed across the
street 1t appeared to the almost paralyzed
bystanders that they would rush directly
into Keyworth's show windows. in front of
which the ladies were standing.
When the horses reached the middle OF
the street the near horse pulled to the right,
dragging his maddened companion with
him. the runaway team barely grazing the
dresses of two ladies as they passed by
They continued on down the pavement
until they came opposite a telegraph pole
between 9th and 10th, one veering to the
right, the other to the left, the horse on
the inside of the pavement being thrown
heavily to the ground and the career of
his companion being also providentially
checked. The horse thrown down appar-
emily had both legs broken.

MCKINLEY AND THE "ANTFS."
How a Proposed Meeting in Phi1ndel-
phia Was Made n Failure.


Philadelphians In the city report an in
tensely bitter feeling there between the
Mckinley ami anti-McKinley forces. The
anti-McKinley people are on top now, and
are laughing in their sleeves over the man
ner in which they did up their op-
pcnents.
Week before last the announcement was
made that the Mckinley people. headed by
the Young Mems Republican Club and J..
Hampton Moore, had arranged for a big
Mckinley demonstration at the Academy of
Music on Saturday night, April IL. 1t was
proposed to give a rouser, and to have
thousands present Senator Sherman and
General G.osvenor were invited to speak,
but declined
The proposed demonstration was a fail

was told by Philadelphia to a Star re-
porter this morning. He said: The anil
Mckinley people worked the slickest game
L ever knew Of They didn't want the
young men in the party to come to the
front. and they hit upon this plan:
The charter Of the Academy of Music
requires that all admissions shall be by
tickets. Twenty thousand tickets were is

TINS central city committee, a Quay insti-
tuition, made requisition for 1900 tickets,
under pretense of giving them out. Other
tickets were left at newspaper Offices
These were also gobbled by the anti-Mc-
kinleyites in fifty and 100 lots. The 1000
tickets have not been seen or heard of
since. They must have been sent out to
pasture for the summer. At any rate, when
the hight Of meeting arrived there was an
immense crowd clamoring for admission
but q big crowd of policemen told the peo-
pie they couldn't get in without tickets.
The result was that tie meeting was a
failure. but the affair has angered the Nc
kinley men so that they threaten to get

THE INDIANA'S BATTERY,
Satisfactory Experiments Made by the
Walker Board Saturday.


Walker Board Saturday.
The Walker board returned to Washing
ton this morning. after making trip on
the battle ship Indiana from Hampton
Roads to New York. The ship left the
Roads last Saturday morning, and as the
sole object of the board was to thoroughly
test her battery, the firing began in the
afternoon of the same day. when the ship
was far enough from shore to make 1t
safe. For months past the Navy DEPART
ment has been divided into two hostile
camps on the question Of arranging the
main batteries Of the new battle ships Une
side favoring the placing of the thirteen
and elght-inch guns In separate turrets as
In the case of the Indiana and the other
the arrangement of the smaller guns In
an additional story over the main turret
The purpose OF this last arrangement is
TO shield the gunners in the main turret
from the supposed destructive effect Of the
blast of the S-inch guns, when the latter
are fired in line with the lower turrets
In preceding tests made with the In
dianas battery by the inspection board the
guns of the S-inch turrets were safely fired
within ten degrees of bow and stern, but It
vas supposed that that was as close as
prudence permitted the guns to be ranged
to the sighting hood of the big turrets.
Last Saturday, however, the Walker board
pushed the test to the extreme, with most
gratifying results. The S-inch guns were
nieu olrectly ahead and aStern, and in so
doing the blast of the guns passed Just
across the edge of the sighting hood of the
Zig l3-lnch turrets, wherein Lieut.. Hender-
son had voluntarily taken his station.
He took no precautions beyond closing
the shutter directly opposite the blasts, vet
he was unharmed. This experiment may
have strong bearing upon the conclusion
OF the board as to the adoption of the dou-
ble-storled turrets on the battleships, as
strengthening the arguments Of the oppo-
nents of that plan. The battery in all
other respects worked we'll. and the only
substantial change that suggested itself to
the board was the addition of a supply of
water by pipes to facilitate the speedy
washing out Of the residue accommodating
after firing.
