There were twenty-seven Sacramen-
TO women in the Metropolitan Theater
last night, who defantly ignored what
has now become the rule for genteel
women in all places of public amuse-
ment, namely, not to wear hats that in
terfere with the view of the stage by
others. In San Francisco such head
gear is forbidden by law, and in every
theater there women remove their hats,
even those wearing low ones. The re-
form appears not to have reached all
the women of this city. 1t should not
be necessary to invoke the law here
to compel them to be regardful OF the
rights of others. But it is to the credit
of three hundred women who were at
the theater last night, that they did
not offend. Their compliance with the
demands of common right, made the
twenty offenders notably con-
conspicuous. If Manager Hall wants
to start his new managerial venture
successfully. he should do as San Fran
cisco managers have done, insist upon
the removal of hats in the auditorium

AN EXPENSIVE DRINK.
Valued Higher Than a Horse and
Rifle.

A soldier in the regular army was
commenting on the strength of an In
dams love for whisky. They are the
biggest fools you ever saw. L came
across a buck one day on the plains
and he asked if I had any whisky. I
shook the canteen and told him there
was only one drink there. He insisted
on having it, and offered his rifle for it.
Finally he got mad because | wouldn't
take the rifle and pony. You never
saw such fools. Why didn't 1 make
the trade? I would, but you see, that
was the only drink 1 had.
This story is used to illustrate the
power of human habits and to speak
particularly to those who are annoyed
with the coffee habit, which is the
cause of an immense amount of sick

BLOOMER BEAUTIES.
Their Late Managers Accused of
EmbezzIing Some Drums.

The recent Bloomer Girl enea cement
has been prolific of trouble for the min
or courts, and apparently the end has
not yet been reached.
Henry Stewart and George Bird man
aged the plump beauties during their
Oak Park engagement, and Andrew f.
Bruhn says he lent them several mu-
sical instruments-if drums come with
in that ategory-which, instead of be-
ing returned to him, were pawned.
Bruhn swore out warrants for the ar
rest of the managers, and they have
been taken into camp. Stewart was
brought hither from Stockton, and Bird
was found in San Francisco.
The examination has been set by
Justice Henry for hearing on August
I'd, and Stewart admitted to bail. Bird
has not reached here, unless brought
up last night.

SIMPLE ASSAULT,
For 1t Harry Crews of Folsom
Will be Punished.

A man named Harry Crews was ar

removed. He threatened to pull it
down himself; words ensued, threats
We're made, and Coleman declares that
Crews drew a pistol.

THE INAUGURAL REsoLUTIOS.
No Knowing How Long 1t Will Hang
Fire in the Senate.

II
= Comment at the eeCapit6l is to the effect
that if the inaugural committee wants au-
thority to use public spaces in this city to
connect the pension office by telephone and
telegraph, to have an additional police
force. and toihave flags loaned them by the
Secretaries Of War and the Navy, to be
used for decorative purposes. it would be
well for it to work actively in securing the
passage through the Senate of House ESQ.,
luton PA. MIR! Bacon reported this resolu-
ton faVCrably~ from the SeEate committee
on the District of Columbia on the nth
instant and has made two attmepts to call
1t up in theG Senate for consideration and
passage, buteach time objection was made
by Mr.. Hale who stated that he wanted to
further examine the measure because he
feared 1t gave too much discretionary
power to the District Commissioners.
Mr.! Hale. on objecsing to the considera-
ton of this, resolution the second time.
stated that II Mr.. Bacon would allow Ii to
go over for couple of days he would no
longer interpose any objection against its
consideration. In the" meantime Sena tor
'Cockreifs resolution for the purpose of
stopping the Potomac Electric Power Com
pany In the work of laying its conduits
has come up to consume the morning hour
and has prevented Mr.. Bacon from calling
up his resolution. and this controversy may
prevent rim from doing so until the Cock
rell resolution is disposed of. 1t is mere
guesswork to say when this resolution will
De voted on in the Senate as it's opponents
propose delaying it's passage long enough
to assure the Potomac company of enough
time to complete the work of laying con-
duits. 1t Is suggested that a petition from
the inaugural committee stating that 1t is
hampered in its work by being left in doubt
as to the authority would tend to prevent
any further objection to the resolution
which Mr.. Bacon proposes to call up at the
first opportunity. . -.

FOR A RAILROAD.
Hearing by the Com INF Ssioners ON n
Proposed Line.


A largely attended public hearing took
place this morning at the Commissioners
office upon House bill a41o. TO incorporate
the Washington and Gettysburg Railway
Company" The route described in the bill
contemplates beginning at point on the
northeasterly boundary OF the District of
Columbia, at or near the intersection of
this line with the Sargent road, and run
ming on or adjacent to said road to the
Bunker Hill road: along this road to 18th
street, to Brookland: thence south on 18th
street to Dahlgren Circle: thence by route
of the proposed extension of Delaware
avenue. or by such other route east of the
Metropolitan branch of the Baltimore and
Ohio railroad as the Commissioners of the
District shall approve.
DIR. +. c. Drane briefly outlined the ob-
jects of the bill. The proposed directors
had examined the report of the Commits
sioners and had come to the belief that
they could not accept the amended bill ac-
cording to the Commissioners wishes. The
financial element behind the enterprise was
opposed to the new route suggested. What
was wanted was direct connection between
Bro )kland and Washington. and not be
compelled TO gain entrance over another
route, one that had not been built and
might never be. There were several routes
that might be given the road to enter the
city. but the route set forth i'm the bill was
what wanted.
DIR. Frank T. Howe, representing the citi-
Zens of Brookland, urged the favorable con-
sideration of the present bill. With this
road the citizens could hope for rapid tran
sit facilities xithin four or five months. 1t
would. he thought, be expedient to stop
the road at Eckington. The citizens of
Brookland had no confidence in the Wash
ington and Maryland railroad and did not
think tho Commissioners had either. The
citizens did not want to be left high and
dry in :he air at lexington. What was
wanted was direct communication with
Washington. The present bill would give
this. Brookland had a population of 800
or 1900 people. whose desires should have
some weight in the matter.
The Commissioners took the matter under
81.

GENERAL MARKET REPORTS

Special Dispatch 10 The Evening Star.
NEW YORK. January 22--Fractional dc
clines in the London market and pro-
nounced liquidation in the coal shares de-
tracted from the buoyancy of the general
market this morning. In most instances
a fair demand was encountered at the early
decline. The sudden attack on Hooking
Valley. noted yesterday, unsettled the en-
tire market, the coal carrying roads being
especially sensitive to the rumors of ad-
verse trade conditions.
The liquida tion of investment holdings in
Delaware and Hudson made that stock ac-
tive at the expense of l per cent Of its
value. The buying on the decline indicated
Willingness to replace former holdings,
the new dividend rate, coupled with the
conservative and able management of the
property, fixing its Investment value al
about present prices
Jersey Central was weak in sympathy
with the movement in the former property,
but was accorded good support at the de-
cline.
During the period of the most pronounced
weakness in this particular group of stocks.
the general market was dull and feature
less.
The strength of Sugar subsequently at
tracted attention and caused a fractional
rally throughout the list Rumors of de-
cision for the sugar company in the Wool
ston spice mills case were largely respon-
sible for the strength of the stock Should
expectations be realized in this controversy
the trade war with the millionaire coffee
roasting firm will be least disastrous to the
Sugar interests.
The belief is gaining ground that a COM
premise will be concluded without injury
to either, the moment the profits on the
respective commodities are actually threat
ened.
Union Pacific was in fair demand at a
fractional advance on the prospect of
further legislation looking to the creating
of a commission to adjust the roads debts
to the government. The foreclosure pro-
cess. while requiring only trif1ing changes
in detail to become operative, is not salts
factory TO the various bondholders of the
property. The fears of government own
ership seem to be wholly groundless. mas
much az the reorganiZat ton committee may
be relied upon to bid in the road, even
should the price be advanced by competing
bids From the action of the stock alone,
II may be inferred that some important de-
veiopments are believed to be pending.
The covering of short contracts by trad
ers during the afternoon served to keep
prices Well up to the best level of the day.
The slSecialticS were particularly strong on
professional buying and moderate volume
of pool support. The nervousness i'm the
coal shares was not wholly removed by
the stability of the general list, but spe-
cal causes are no longer given a general
application. For this reason, the market
became dull, but refused to Weld signifi
cantly, to the movement in the group
named. Money rules easy i'm both the local
ard foreign markets, and no special de-
mand is reported. Foreign exchange was
dull at previously quoted rates.

DEATH OF j. HALL COLLEGIATE.
Popular Official of the Police COur,
Passes Away.


Passes Away.
Genuine sorrow was occasioned among
an unusually large number of friends to-
day by the announcement of the death of
Mr.. j. Hall Collegiate, the popular docket
clerk of the Police Court. For some time
past Mr.. Collegiate has suffered intensely
from neuralgia and headaches and re-
Gently was afflicted with the grip. He was
confined to his home during the past ten
days, and Wednesday evening he became
unconscious. Death, which occurred about
O'Clock this morning was directly due
to congestion of the brain.
Mr.. Collegiate was member of one of the
oldest and most highly respected families
OF Washington. He was the nephew and
namesake of DR.. Hall, an able physician
and man of wealth, who endowed many
notable institutions. The deceased was
born in this city and lived here all his life
and was forty-nine years of age He
studied law with the firm of the late Rich
ard Merrick and Justice Morris of the Dis
trict Court of Appeals. and at one time
held an important position in the State De-
partment. He was brother of Mr.. Gibson
Collegiate of the firm of r. o. Hoffman &
Co.. and has brother who is connected
with the New York custom house The
deceased has several sisters one being the
wife of Col Theodore Mosher, adjutant
general of the District of Columbia militia
and another the wife of Col. McCauley of
the United States marine corps.
Mr.. Collegiate was married, but had no
children. He resided at 1910 b street south
west, and at the time of his death was sur
rounded by his relatives at present in this
city. The funeral will probably take place
Monday, but the arrangements therefor
have not yet been completed. as before
doing so it will be necessary to hear from
relatives in the west.
