CHAPMAN RETURNS HOME.

Broker f. E. Chapman appeared to be

as he sat in the lobby of the Arlington

Times reporter. He was attired in q

wore a rosebud on the lapel of his ceat.

Mfr. Chapman said that yesterday after

When asked whether the trials OF the
newspaper men this week would compel
him to return to the city, Mr.. Chapman
replied:
Il do not think so. I have been sub
poenaed and will be present If / am need
ed, but ] think that some stipulation viii
be arranged by the lawyers which will
make it unnecessary for me to attend the
trial. My business has been very much
neglected by me of late, and am anxious
to get to work again"
Mr.. Chapman said that no one but his
immediate family would accompany him
today to New York. He spoke very highly
Of the kindly treatment he had received in
this city during his enforced stay, and con-
graduated himself heartily upon having es-
capped the approaching hot weather and

THIEVES IN DUNKARD GARB
They Reaped a Rich Harvest at
the Frederick Convention.
HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS STOLEN
The Pickpockets Took Advantage
of the Crowds and Operated To-

in the drab dresses and poke bonnets Of
The Dnnkard sect, and mingled in the
crowd.
Their plan of operations was to single
out their man and then follow hirn until
there was a jam, when several of them
would surround him while one would go
through the victim.
This was very easily done, as there
We're more than 10000 persons in at

and would he at loss whom to accuse.
Further, as the rules OF the sect forbid the
members from appealing in the courts, no
complaints Were made to the Frederick
police.
The latter, however, got wind of The
ms tier, and investigated upon their own
account. 1t was found that at least
twenty-five persons had been relieved of
pcck etbooks containing each from $50 to
800, and the impression is that there are
many more cases which have not been re-
ported.
Th> matter was brought to the attention
OF the police in this city, through Mr..
A. w. Messer, a wealthy Dunkard, of
Epi Teta. Pa, who visited Hack Inspector
Graft on his way home, and who was rob
bed OF a pocketbook containing $50 and
many valuable papers
Mr. Messen said he felt his pocketbook
being slipped out, but that lie was in such
jam at the time that he could not turn
his head quickly enough to discover the
offender. He did see, however, that none
OF those who surrounded him were dressed
in other than the Dunkard garb.
1t was later said that some Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad officials recognized
several women who left this city for Fred

STATE INSTITUTIONS.

Aside from the prison bills and the act
relating to the appointment of boards
mentioned elsewhere in this review two
important measures affecting the state in
situations were passed. One of these was
designed 10 prevent the iunketing trips by
legislative committees and give the Cen
erai Assembly an intelligent idea of the
need of the institutions that appropria-
lions may be based upon IL. Ii provides
that the Governor shall appoint a nonpar-
tisan committee of three members-elect of
the Legislature at least forty-five days be-
fore the meeting of each General Assembly
to visit the penal, benevolent and educa-
tional institutions of the State, and make
a report to the Legislature of their condi-
ton and needs, land of the appropriations
necessary TO carry them on. This commit
tee is designed to take the place of the
committees that have been sent to each
IL is provided that the members of the COM
mittee shall be men of known prokity and
business ability, who are not interested
financially in any appropriation for the in
situations they are sent TO visit, and that
not more than two of them shall be selected
from the same political party.
Another important measure is the Null
law, which provides for more perfect
auditing of the moneys disbursed by the
different departments of state government,
by requiring vouchers specifically itemiZing
in every particular the different purposes
for which the treasury warrant is author
lied before the auditor can approve bills
presented and draw his warrant for their
payment.
