Music Mt Glen Echo.

The increasing attendance at Glen Echo evil
dences very decidedly that the resort is becoming
the fayorite one of Washington. Last night Band
master Haley presented change of programme,
and the introduction OF several features
suited in the performance being very interesting
one The musical selections were happily chosen,
titled THE Strike" Mr.. Haley made decided
hit. The other numbers given included the pre-
sentaticn of several oyertures, and the excellence
of the bands playing, considering the fact that
no previous rehearsal given, plainly showed
the capability Of Bandmaster Haley and his men.
The number OF requests received resulted in the
giving Of the Rough Riders Skirmish,' vigor-
Gus, pulse stirring military meiange, and the ap-
plause that followed gave evidence that Teddy
Roosevelt's soldiers still hold high place in the
American publics esteem. Several selections on
the musical glasses gave new insight into the
all-around ability of Mr.. Haley Miss Shelton's
several encores. Next week the bill to be pre-
sented includes openair concerts and a min
strel troupe, said to rank with the best com
panes in the country. refined, clean, and
mirth provoking show is promised, and addition
ally the evenings fun and humor declared
to be thoroughly removed from any suspicious

master Haley Will give concerts on the lawn and

COUNSEL FOR SMELL.
No Attorneys Have Been Retained
for His Defence.

No Attorneys Have Been Retained
for His Defence.
BENJAMIN II. Smell; who is charged with
the murder of thirteen-year-old Lizzie
Weisenberger, has not yet succeeded in Sc
curing counsel for his defence. At the
coroner's inquest held last Monday Smell
was represented by former Deputy Com
missioner of Pensions, Charles Perry Lin
coin. Mr. Lincoln acted in this capacity
at the request of friends of Smell. though
he had never known the man. Later Mr..
Lincoln and former United States Attorney
A. C. Birney, il is understood, were asked
to defend the prisoner.
Smell the morning of the inquest wrote
to his father-in-law, E. NJ. Locklin, living
! in Montpelier, Vt. and to his two broth
ers in Georgia, where one, it is understood,
is county judge, and the other a clerk
in the county court. 1t was with the eX-
pectation that he would receive substan-
tial assistance from these relatives that
Smell hoped to be defended by Mr. Lincoln
and Mr.. Birney. II now appears that
neither of the gentlemen named will be
retained in the case. 1t is understood that
Mrs. SHELLS father as well as SHELLS
brothers in Georgia have not signifed
their intention of coming to Washington.
Mrs. Smell refused TO discuss the question
of the help expected from the prisoners
relatives last night though it is under
stood they have not yet reached the city.
Smell has written a letter TO a chief of
| division in the Pension Office stating that
his family will soon be in needy circum-
stances If they remain In Washington
and asking that aid be given TO enable
them to leave the city. Letters have also
been received at the Pension Office from
the Weisenberger family thanking the
clerks of the southern and middle divis-
ions for financial aid toward defraying the
funeral expenses of the dead girl.

POLICEMAN JAMES FUNERAL.
Services VIII BE Conducted at His
Late Residence

The funeral of Policeman Charles z.
James, who died at his home, SO7 F Street
southwest, at II o'clock last night, Will
take place Monday morning at 10 o'clock.
The services will be conducted by the off,
GERS Of Eastern Lodge, No. Z, !. o. o. F..
and will be held at the house. The body
will be placed in vault at Congressional
Cemetery.
The deceased had been a member of the
police force for a number of years, and
twenty years ago was detailed for clerical
work at headquarters, where he was sta
toned at the time of his death. For some
zine past he has had charge OF the record
of arrests kept at headquarters, and was
assistant to the chief clerk. Mr. James
had been in bad health for a long time,
and was unable to attend TO his duties at
headquarters regularly for several months
Major Sylvester was informed of the Off
GERS death this morning, and will probably
order a detail of policemen to attend the
funeral, IL agreeable to the wishes Of the
family.
The evening times., 1899-08-12

One of the recent orders of Major Sylves
ter to the members of the Police Depart
ment regarding the speed Of vehicles around
corners in the business section of the city
and which also provides for the protection
of persons alighting from street cars at
transfer stations, has met with the appro-
al of the people who are compelled to be
upon the street at all hours of the day
There is police regulation which provides
for the speed of vehicles around corners
and at railway crossings, but it is said
this regulation has not heretofore been
very strictly enforced.
In other cities it is the custom to have
policemen stationed at dangerous crossings
whose duty ii is to pilot the pedestrian
safely through the labyrinth of teams TO
his destination whether it be street car
or the opposite sidewalk This has been
done here to certain extent, as far as the
stationing of the policemen was concerned,
but the officers did not pay attention to
pedestrians The duty of the officers were
manifold, and they spent most Of their time
trying to regulate the passage OF teams over
the crossings. Heretofore il has not been
understood that pedestrians were to have
the right of way at such places, and con-
sequently the matter of clearing the cross
ings of obstructing wagons has received
most of the officers attentfong lff
After the promulgatfoniof of the order re-
ferred TO, however, the right Of the pc
destrian is finally established. The regu-
lation also applies TO driversi who insist
in driving on the wrong side OF the street.
This is said to cause great annoyance to
those who comply with the law and 1t is
also said TO be responsible fof numerous
bolckades Major Sylvester received a
number of complaints from citizens re-
garding the condition Of the streets at GER
tain times of the day and has given the
matter considerable attention. 1t is not
possible with the small number OF men on
the police force at present, the major
claims, TO establish squad OF men who
will look after the crossings in the man
ner of the Broadway squad of New York,
but he expects in the course OF time to be
able to organize such squad and place
the men ON duty at the crossings. AT
present this work is confined solely to the
crossing men at the intersections OF the
various street car lines in the city. These
men are paid by the street railroad com
panies, but are subject to the orders oil
the Superintendent of Police There are
some crossings which are very dangerous
on which no men are stationed and II Is
| the intention of Major Sylvester to rene
| dy this defect as soon. as Congress. will
grant him the necessary number OF men.
