THE MOTION OyERRULED.
Falls Church Railway Case Decided
by Judge Mills.


In the Police Court yesterday afternoon
Judge Mills overruled a motion for a new
trial in what is known as the Aqueduct
bridge case. This is the proceeding in
which Charles Smith, a laborer in the EN-
ploy of r. H. Phillips. superintendent of
the Washington. Arlington and Falls
Church railway, was arrested last month
for tearing up the sidewalk on the Aque-
duct bridge in furtherance of the object of
the railway to lay tracks across the struc-
ture without a permit authorizing 1t SO to
do.
Smith was recently fined SIS. on convic-
ticn in the Police Court. After overriding
the motion for new trial, Judge Mills re-
duced the fine to $40. Counsel for Smith
gave notice of an appeal to the Court of
Appeals OF the District. From certain
statements OF Attorney Lipscomb in court,
however, it Is probable that the appeal will
be abandoned.

KERNAN's LYCEUM THEATER.-The
Black Crook Extravaganza Company
which opened at Kernans last night for
weeks run, is individually and collect
lively the best performance of its kind that
has been seen in Washington. 1t is an all
star attraction, with Mureal, the gay Par
isienne, the guiding light of it all. This
dainty French lady makes her bow this
week to Washington audiences, and II the
ovation she received last night is to be ac-
cepted as criterion she has been added
to the favorite list. Both in the burlesques
and in her speciality she displayed charac-

prevail. Her specially fashioned after

of the burlesques were excellently arranged
and magnificently costumed. There are
countless electric lights to help the pic
lures, but the bright, pretty girls needed
no artifciality to make them attractive.
Too much credit cannot be given to Smith
and Champion for the work they do For
long Zine their position in vaudeville has
only been checked because they could 60

ever, built them another round and they
occupied it with credit. The Versatile

THE GERMAN CABINET
Some Changes Imminent and More
Are Probable

BERLIN, June 15.-The National Zei-
tung says it is rumored that Emperor
William will receive Prince Hohenlohe
the imperial chancellor, and DIR. MIGUEL,
the minister Of finance, in audience
Their consultation is to be connected
with the changes in the Prussian min
istry of finance, the vice presidency OF
the Prussian cabinet and the imperial
home office, besides the appointment
of deputy chancellor.
The Times correspondent at Berlin.
says: The plan appears to be for DR..
MIGUEL to resign the portfolio of finance
and to replace DR.. Boetticher in all the
latter's offices, namely, the department
of the interior, the vice presidency of
the bundesrath and the vice presidency
of the Prussian ministry. The signifi-
canoe of such scheme lies in the asso-
Citations of DR.. MIGUEL, who is persona
grata to Emperor William and with
Prince Hohenlohe, who placed him in
practical control of the home affairs of
both Prussia and the German empire.
1t must be borne in mind that the port
folios of the navy. the foreign secretary
and the postmaster general are now prac-
tically without holders. There is room,
therefore, for extensive changes.
