LETTERS FROM TIMESREADERS
Mr.. Loves Ca Sc.
o the Editor of The Times:

To the Editor of The Times:
In your columns I read of the con-
viction of Merchant Love in the police
court for scorching. 1t appears that tie
word of the police officer was OF higher
character and stood him in better stead
than the oath OF reputable citizen.
Upon what rule of law or evidence such
ruling can be sustained, I cannot imagine.
Usually t takes one witness and COR
roborating circumstances, or two or more
witnesses, to overcome the testimony of a
defendant It Is also rule of law that
the burden Of proof is on the plaintiff,
the District OF Columbia in this case.
/ do not desire to iiDpeach the correctness
Of the officers statement, but it Is just
as possible for an officer to be mistaken
as any one else, and where citizen Of
good standing makes II statement to a
court that he was keeping within the law,
and there is but one witness to prove
hitn incorrect, it seems to me the court
would be justified in dismissing the case
with q word of caution. That the Of
ficers are right Ia very great number
OF cases is apparentfrom the fact thatmany
persons forfeit collateral, but that is also
a strong reason why q man would not
come to trial, unless honestly of the
opinion that he was in the right 1t is
reasonable to predict that the court of
appeals would not sustain such a finding
tits also true that If one person can swear
away the rights OF the citizen in a "soorch-
ing case" the same rule Gould be applied
to others of more serious character.

punishment by fine or in a sentence to
the workhouse.
Among the passengers were two colored
girls whose department while in the car
was as good as that OF the other passen-
gers When they attempted 90 leave
the car at Ninth and H streets northe asst
white man deliberately put out his foot
and tripped one of them, which resulted
in her being thrown almost to the floor
of the car. The man offered no apology
for his indecent and outrageous act and
when the girl demonstrated with him he,
and nearly every white passenger in the
car, laughed and jeered at her. The con-
ductor offered her no prote otion whatever,
but joined in the general laugh. Had
the car been chiefly filled with negroes
and one of them had attempted to trip
a white girl as she was leaving the car,
the passengers would have regarded is
as an Outrage-not to be regarded as
Jest, and the condu ctor would have
stopped the Car when an officer was
sighted and had the negro placed under
arrest.
The most remarkable part of the affair
was the action of the white women pas
sencers. They did not eem to have the
least sympathy with their negro sisters,
but laughed themselves almost breathless
when white passenger, who Wore spec
tacles, shouted in mock derision: ''Call
de officeri' ''what is de number of dis
kyar!'' This man. as did all present, knew
that an outrage had been committed He
also knew that the offense had been
committed against member of race
whom public sentiment In the District has
decreed have no rights that a white map
is bound to respect.

Capt. Brown and Capt Joyce, two vet
Grams Of the diamond, consulted yesterday
afternoon at National Park and concluded
that it would be best for old joints, weak
arms and Charley horses not 10 play Oh
wet grounds and in the damp air. Prob
ably it was a wise conclusion from tLeir
standpoint, because it would scarcely pay
either team to run any risk i n playing in
the rain. The veterans on the New YorsS
need al the warm weather they can get,
and the youngsters on the Senators also
need the sunshine for their benefit. I'm
pire Lynch was also a factor, for he told
them that If they began the game in The
rain they would have 10 finish il. Bat
they did not guess the weather bit.
as 1t turned out to be fine day.
AS a result OF the agreement there will
be two games this Afternoon, the first
OF which Will be called at 2:3o p. m. and
the second soon after the completion of
the first. These will be royal battles.
The Giants viii struggle to increase their
present percentage, while the Senators
will endeavor to get closer to the Quakers,
who this morning are only 27 points aw iy
and are playing superior club.
Joyce will work Rusie and Meekin .his
afternoon and King and McJanies will
twirl for the home team. The pla ying of
two gaines will draw a large crowd, and
Joyce viii then know just how the public
is roofing for the Senators.
Had the game been played yesterday
