the free list either came of age were mar
ried or adopted. or were declared self-sup-
porting. and therefore We're dropped from
the rolls
The number Of wards in free homes
both inside and outside the District OF Co
lumbia June go 1898 was 219. The num-
Der June 80, 1899, was 81. The number in
free and boarding homes outside of the
District June 30 1899. was $50, net in
crease of 81 over the previous year. OF
these. III were in free homes and in
boarding homes The average number of
wards in free homes and boarding homes,
outside of institutions. and therefore un-
der the supervision of the visiting agent,
during the year 1898 1899 was 1866.
The estimate has been made in previous
reports that there ought to be one super
yising agent for each $50 children placed
outside of the District. Some OF these
children are placed in New Jersey, Della
ware Pennsylvania. and more distant
States. so that supervision takes much
time"
The need of another visiting agent IS
noted. and an account OF the work Of the
one official now engaged in visiting the
children and inspecting the homes is given.
Following this comes the preparatory
statements to the submission Of the esti-
mates for the next year. The report states:
The per capita cost of administration
and supervision based on the number of
children subject 10 supervision during the
past three years having aggregated Sl4.25,
and the per capita cost Of maintaining
child IN a boarding home during the same
period having aggregated Sl12-94, 1t may
be calculated that the saving in expense
whenever a child is transferred from a
/ boarding home TO a free home is $9S.69 per
annum. In former reports il has been as
sumed that this saving was $75 per annum.
Even upon this basis the transfer Of twenty
/ children from boarding homes to free
( homes would effect a saving of 81 500 on the
/ maintenance account. The suggested in
! crease in the visiting agency OF the board
viii easily more than cover that increase
/ in the number of children who can be kept
! without expense to the board for mainten-
/ ance.
Estimates of the Fiscal Year.
The following estimates for the fiscal
( year 19OO-l9O1 are made, with the request
/ that the appropriation for administrative
expenses and for maintenance of children
be granted without distinction of purpose
! in one sum. in order that the board may be
enabled TO exercise its discretion in the ap-
portionment of the expenditures:

Still No Election

The city council, at it's ad-
JOurned meeting last night,
failed again to elect a marshal.
There were eight or ten ballots
taken, resulting IN no election.
Mr.. Davis was handed a petit
tion addressed to III. K. Smith,
j. IL. Livingston and d. w. Da-
Wis, urging them to break the
deadlock over the election of a
marshal, and. further urging
them to vote for the present in
cumbent, Mr.. j. d. Williams.
By consent of Messrs. Living
ston and Smith, the petition was
read to the council. The names
attached thereto numbered fifty
one.
Mr.. DAVIS made the statement
that while he had voted persist
emily for Mr.. Williams since the
first of June, he had, for the
sake of harmony, practically
agreed to break the deadlock
and let an election be made, but
in the face OF the petition bear
ing the signatures of a majority
of the prominent voters of the
second ward, he could not refuse
to grant the request of his con-
stltuents, and realizing that he
was opposing the request OF an
intimate and personal friend,
he, under other circumstances,
would have been glad to grant
his request, but be felt that the
demand Of fifty-one voters of the
second ward who sent him to the
council 70 represent them, could
not be ignored, hence he would
continue to cast his ballot for
Mr.. Williams.
The council then adjourned till
tonight when it IS expected that
DR.. Delouest and Mr.. Fuller will
be present, and an election is al
most certain.

will be one of the prettiest as
well as one of the best roads in

A COwardIy Blow

Last night, about $50, General
Robert Bullock walked down to
his front gate to get the Star,
picked IL up and walked out and
across the street to call a neigh
Dor. There was q bad dog in the
neighborhood and the general
was looking out for HIM with his
eyes toward the ground. He
heard a noise in front of him
which he thought was the dog
and waved the paper at the sup
posed dog and shouted to him to
go away. just then he noticed a
dark object approaching, which
he still supposed to be the dog.
He then saw that it was a man,
and, before he had time to raise
his eyes, the man struck the aged
general a stunning blow on the
jaw and temple with his fist or a
smooth stone. General Bullock
was stunned for a short time, and
when he had recovered his assall-
ant had escaped. The side of his
face is swollen today and is quite
painful. General Bullock has a
clue to the identity of the cow
ard and says woe unto him if he
can satisfy his mind fully.
