The entire family had retired, when Mrs.

screamed.

Bigclow got into his daughters room.
A remarkable sight met his gaze. There
stood Mrs. Dodge in the middle OF the room
smiling as though nothing had happened. A
rug was gathered in a corner where the burg

the gag he had prepared for Mrs Dodge.
The rohber did not get Il single article OF

As she was on her way home he shot

STILL FAR FROM THE END
Brewers Combine Has No Idea
of Yielding.
Sent Yesterday to the
Federation of Liquor Dealers Said
to Be Not Acceptable.

From what could be learned today
between the local brewery managers and
their employees is even woIse Than on the
day the men were locked out.
1t was stated on good authority that
the lawyers representing the boss
brewers Lad yesterday sent oonimu nic:.-
ton to the subcommittee OF the executive
board of the Federation of Liquor Dealers
containing terms on which the matt or couh
be settled. What these terms
were could not he learned further than
that they were more cxacting in favor
or the brewery proprietors than any her.
toforc contemplated as a basis OF settn-
mcnt.
The terms were submitted at a special
meeting OF Gambrinus Assembly which
was also attended by Master Workman
Simmons, and We're unanimously re-
pudiated.
Master Workman Simmons was seen and
asked if lie had seen the terms submitted,
as coming from the Ross brewers.
He said he had.
He was then asked if in his opinion thev
would be acceptable to organized labor, Il nd
he answered with an emphatic, No"
He said further tina, there had been a
conference OF the labor leaders OF the
District, and they were as emphatic in
their reputation OF the proposition as
was Gambrinus Assembly. We felt that
we were only asking that our rights be
given US VIXEN. the trouble started, ard
now we are demanding them, and don't
intend To bulge an inch until we get them:
not one or two scraps, but all and every
one Of them.
"Organized labor is in line, ready for
the Tight To begin in earnest, and when it
does, to man we Will move forward and
you may he sure somebody will get hurt
before we let up, for our rights we i'll
tend to have
1t was also rumored today that all
was not well i'll the Brewers combine"
aud it was stated that one OF them, who
had always been very favora bic 10 organ
lied labor, said yesterday that he was
getting mighty tired of the way things
were going, and If something was not done
soon lie would act for himself.
While This report could not be verified
from other remarks made in connection
with it there is probably Il great deal of
truth In it.

His Congressman \ bout Treatment

His Congressman y bout Treatmen
Jean Harrison was arrested q I the CapitoI
yesterday on charge OF insanity. Har-
risOn is remarkable. He admits that he is
affected with temporary alteration OF the
mind.
He realizes this and discusses II calmly
He stated that he came to Washington from
a Southern State 10 seek treatment at an
Institution where his defect would receive
scientific consideration. He called at the
Capitol to consult his Congressman about
this and became excited upon hearing a
Capitol policeman. who locked him up and
turned him over 10 the police of the Sixth
precinct.
Harrison said that the police at the
Capitol acted in good faith. but would not
permit him To see the man whom lie sought.
Harrison Is at times eccentric, but is said
oy those who know him. to be at a times
responsible. He is a well-rea red Young
man, exceedingly polite and talks with
reason.
He says that at times his mind is slightly
unbalanced, but never seriously derange,! .
He objects 10 being cIdSSed as a mailman
He reasons that a man would not be shut
in pest house because OF some trivial
physical disorder.

CHARGES WERE IGNORED
Howard Trustees Refused to Con-
slider Certain Allegations.
Annual Meeting OF the University
Held Lust Night With Full
Board Present.

The regular semi-annual meeting Of the
board OF trustees of the Howard University
was held last evening at the university
building. Those present We're:
The president, j. r. Rankin, DR.. T. s.
Hamlin, Hon. John Eaton Hon. ex-senator
Bruce, DR.. F. ]. Grimke, william Ballan-
tine, esq; Hon. +. II. Smith, JOHN F.
Cook, esq; c. II. Mcrriwether, esq; Rev.
William Naring, z. Richards, esq; Gen.
George w. Bolloch, and Secretary j. b.
Johnson. The delegation from the medical
department were: Drs. T. b. Hood, dean;
Graham, Purvis, and Reyburn.
The report of President Rankin touched
upon the relation of the medical depart-
ment TO the university proper and contained
il number Of rccommcnda lions, which were
referred to u special committee for APP
prevail.
The medical department, through Dr. T.
b. Hood, brought forward several matters
fer consideration, which were referred 10
thefollowing special committee ] Ohm Eatup
Il. X. Bruce, President E. NJ. Gallaudet, Dr.
Hood. James +. Cooke. and DR.. Frederick
Grimke, who were instructed to report
either at the next regular meeting or a
special meeting, II one We're held.
The report on the improvements on the
Freedmans Hospital was submitted by
F. II. Smith, chairman of the building
committee, and was approved.
II was expected that some action would
have been taken on the communication
OF Revs. George ". Lee, d. D.: W r.
johnson, Walter II. Brooks, Eugene A.
johnson, and several other prominent col
"red ministers Of the city, charging I'M
just and harsh treatment of colored stu
DENTS" "unchristian race Determinations"
and .'extravagant and unwarrantable
application OF the rinds of the instltu-
ton"
No action whatever was taken in ref
crcncc ia the cha rges preferred, as ii WAS
claimed by the board that such n course
could only result in reapproving what
they had already done.
President Rankin, in speaking of the
charges, said they Were without foundation
in fact ard if those who made them had
taken the trouble to investigate, which
they wish Others to do, they would have
saved themselves graf deal of worry.
The residence for his: private USE" he
said. was built with money realized from
he sale of lots on the Eastern Branch. and
not funds appropriated for the support of
the university. The chapel, the Andrew
Rankin" was erected with money raised
by private contributions, and the law
school on Fifth street also, the greater
part of the money having been raised
through the efforts aud influence OF Hon.
William Evarts of New York.
Aud So it will be found i'll reference 20
all the other charges if Investigated
