A BOY ACCUSED OF THEFT.
1t Is Believed He Took Money
From a Hotel Guest.

William Jarvis, bellboy at the Riggs
House, was arrested by Detective Carter
yesterday afternoon ana locked up at the
New Jersey avenue station-house upon the
charge of stealing from Mr.. j. II. Boaener,
a guest at the hotel MIR. Eoatner stated
tha5 he gave the boy suit of clothes To
take to Costinett's dyeing establishment to
have cleaned After Jarvis had gone with
the clothes Mr.. Boatner remembered that
he had left S25 in two bills in the fob
pocket OF the trousers. When he went to
the dyers the money was gone
Mr.. Cestnett said that when the boy
brought the suit TO his place he suggested
that it might be well to 20 through the
pockets TO see that nothing had been left
in them a search was made and the
pockets were found to be entirely empty
II is beliey ed that this was merely n clever
ruse on the part OF the lad to avoid sus-
picien. Jarvis denied any connection with
the theft

A new HOME FOR WORKMEN
The Rooms of the Labor Bureau
Being Fitted Up.
They VIII Be Ready for Occupancy
in Short Time-Push-
ing the Work.

The work of fitting up the new quarters
OF the Workingman's Library Association
and Labor Bureau for occupancy is being
pushed forward as rapidly as possible.
Large forces of painters, paperhangers and
carpenters are rushing things to a finish
Managers ecretar Treasurer Maidens is
also taking a hand in pushing the work
The board OF managers is very anxious
that the work will have progressed suffi-
ciently by the end OF the coming week TO
permit the removal of the library to the
new rooms With this object in view "a
special effort is being made to complete
the fitting of the lower hall, which will be
used for the library and general reception
room The upper hall will be used eXclu-
siveiy as an assembly room for the meet
ings OF the different organizations which
rent from the library association. 1t is re-
ported that each of these bodies is anxious
for the honor or holding the first meeting
in the new quarters, SO there is o great
deal or prrssure being brought to bear to
hasten the work OF repairs. From present
appearances it looks as if the honor OF
holding the first meeting will fall either
to the Painters assembly, which meets on
Friday evening, orthe Tilelayers, WHO as
semhle the Monday folio wing.
AS a financial venture. iG is said the new
quarters will he a success, as already three
organizations which could not be accom-
modated at the old rooms on Eighth street
have petitiOned for accommod ations in the
new building.

THE RAEDT-PECKHAM BOUT
1t Promises to Be the Hottest of

Both Men re Training Hard for the
Eyent-Keen Interest Among
Local Sporting Men.

Now that the date of the RaedyPeck-
ham bout has been definitely settled for
February IL. both men are getting down
to hard work. Raedy has a small but
first-class gymnasium at his home, out
on Massachusetts avenue, and he takes a
regular line OF work each day.
First comes his morning run, or rather
jog out beyond the city suburbs an return,
after which follows shower and rub
down Skipping tile rope is one OF Pat S
specialtIes, and he goes over 1,500 times
or more. Punching the bag, and then a
few rounds with his spaTing partner
ends up the days work.
Peckham is doing equally conscientious
training at his quarters, down in South
Washington. and looks in the pink OF con,
dition already.
1t may he said ut this point that there is
no love lost between Raeey and Peckhaiii'
and tile old scores to be settled up VIII

since that partial eclipse of his pugilistfc
career, and he aspires to Dieet some of
the luudnares OF the ring. If he defeats
Hite in the. coming battle he VIII get on
a good match before one OF the New York
clubs
ON the other hand, Hite seems about as
confident as a man can be tlrat the fight

edly be one of the best ever seea in this

ON A MUTUAL BENEFIT PLAN
A Cooperative Society Among Gov.
ernment Employees.
A Bill Now Pending in Congress
for Its Incorpo oratiDn-The AS
SCISSOR Opposes 1t.

The District Commissioners have in their
hands, for consideration and report. the
draft OF a bill, No. 9977, presented in the
House on the 4th instant, by Mr.. Walker.
OF Virginia, for the incorporation OF an
association for the mutual protection and
benefit of government employees 1t pro-
vIdss in substance for the organization of
a society on the mutual benefit plan,
though in sume respects differing from the
ordinary association OF that character.
II is 10 have two separate funds-one
for relief, the other a saving fund: the
former to be kept up by u contribution of
s. per month on each snare OF stock, and
Toy a snare in the profits derivabIe from
the saving fund
Loans to members, not in excess of one
months salary each, unless by unanimous
consent OF the directors, are provided for,
and il is also stipulated that the associa-
tion shall own reaI estate, and receive the
same as security for loans.
The Commissioners have not yet made
up their report. and have promised the
incorporators a hearing if they desire it
They have before them, however, an
opinion from Assessor TrimbIe, W hich is
adverse to the Incorporation.
1T would seem,' said Mr. Trimble,
THAT the principal object OF the associa-
ton is to loan money 20 government en-
pluyes, who may become members by the
purchase of che OF more shares of stock
The conditions of the loan are that the
borrower shall give notes for the amount
OF the lean. shares of stock and such
bonus as may be agreed upon
The relief fund.- so-caIied, seems to be
composed of nothing more than the ag-
Gregation of profits realized from the pro-
cecdS OF loans divided among the Investors
The amount, of course, would depend
largely upon the bonus to be authorized
The principal objection urged by the
assessor is that the government, through
its disbUrSing officers, are to be made
the medium for the collection of claims
for private gain by authority of law.
1t is true. the assessor remarks
that there is a disclaimer in the act,
tut moral pressure would exist notwith-
standing"
