Washington Heights Organise for Im-
prOvemcnts.'


aprOvemcnts.
A number of gentlemen living on Wash
ington Heights mef last evening at the resi-
denes OF Mr. Ross Thompson, 21S2 Wyo-
ming avenue, to consider the advisability
OF forming . permanent association to
further the interests of that section of the
city.
Those present atsthe meeting were Messrs.
8. w. Woodward, Parker Mann, Jesse Will
son. Thomas y. d. Fuller, Leroy Tuttle,
w. H. Noses L. NJ. Saunders, ]. B. Wi
mer, Ross Thempson. Henry N. LIE Due, R.
]. Fisher, DR.. G. B. WEIGH, Victor Kauff-
mann and DR.. W. TindalI
Mr.. Woodward was chosen temporary
chairman. after: which there was an in
formal discussion of the needs of this part
OF the city. Special attention was called to
the urgent but slong-delayed need of i'm
lroVements In the way of better sewerage,
more street lamps and fire plugs, and more
police The matter of the extra charge or
the part of the express and telegraph COM
panies for delivering on the heights was al
SO taken up. 1t was the unanimous opinion
that these and other such matters made the
organization of an association eminently
desirable, and committee on permanent
organization, consisting of Messrs. Mann,
Winner, Saunders, Woodward and DR.. Tin
dali, was elected, to report at another meet
Ing. to be held next Monday evening. In
order tc lose no time, however, several
temporary committees were appointed to

CRIMINAL DOCKET
Gases of Interest to Be Pushed to Early
Trial.
Mr.. Chapmnn's Sentcnce-The Oleo-
margarine Cases and williams'
Indictment.

When District Attorney Davis assumed
the duties of his office two months ago he
found the criminal docket very much
crowded, and now that he has, by the ap-
pcintment of Mr. d. w. Baker, completed
the office force, he will at once start in
to clear the docket up as much as possible
before the adjournment of the courts for
the summer.
Mr.. Davis stated to a Star reporter to-
day that he had yesterday afternoon for
the first time seen the opinion of the United
States Supreme Court in the case of Mr..
Elverton X. Chapman, the convicted sugar
trust contumacious witness, and in a day
or two he expected he would ask for the
enforcement of Mr.. Chapman's sentence.
Mr.. Chapman's case. explained Mr.. Davis,
has been regarded from the first as a test
one. and for that reason, If for no other,
there should Oe no u1seemly haste in ask
ing for the enforcement of the sentence.
Then, too, said Mr.. Davis, Mr.. Chapman
is not criminal. In few days, stated
the district attorney, he will probably ask
for the enforcement Of the sentence, fine
of s1OO and thirty days Imprisonment in
Jail.
Referring to the forty or more undis-
posed of oleomargarine Indictments, Mr..
Davis said that he will within the next
few days place Assistant District Attorneys
of them, with instructions to push the
cases TO trial at the very earliest day prac-
ticable
He will also instruct them, he. said. to
call Francis ]. Kieckhoefer, indicted some
time ago for misappropriation of State De-
partment funds, up for trial at the earliest
day possible. In that case, as in the oleo
cases, Mr.. Davis is incompetent to appear
because of his former connection with
them as counsel for the defense.
The case of ex-Policeman Dan" Will
liams, charged with the embezzlement Of
Police Court funds, stated Mr.. Davis, has
been laid before the grand jury, and the
man will be prosecuted to the fullest ex-
tent of the law as soon as indicted, which,
Mr.. Davis expects, will be in a few days.
1t is net true, said Mr.. Davis, that he
has decided to pigeon-hole the indictment
against Bessie Stacey, the young woman
who is charged with robbing Messrs. Har-
ris & Shafer of jewelry last winter. He
has not consented to an abandonment OIL
the case, Mr.. Davis said, and in due time
the young woman will be called to answer
the charge.

The most interesting prisoner today N
the Police Court procession was Elizabeth
Copp, a white woman, of middle age and
matronly appearance. The same story ap-
plies to Elizabeth as has been told of the
majority of white women who face the
police Justice as vagrants. She was at
one time fair and refined. loved member
Of a family of standing in the community.
All that was years ago. 1t was wine.
principally, that caused the downfall so
say those who have known her for years,
and 1t was most complete.
Il found this woman lying PROSTATE on
the steps of house on the street near
L street last night" stated Policeman
Copeland. "She was in an advanced state
Of intoxication. AS she has been that
way many times before concluded that
1t was proper to bring her into court as a
vagrant."
Indeed, Judge, I was not drunk" de-
clared Elizabeth, in good English. 1.-The
officer Is certainly mistaken. I am a good
woman and am employed as cook at a
Christian home. I am engaged in Chris
tian and temperance work"
Il saw the defendant early last even

information she went or In another way.
