JOHN G. SLATER SUED.
Petition of Receiver Leighton. @
the Capital Trust Company.

As sequel to the suit filed some time
ago by James Frazer and others against
the Capital Trust Company and others.
Benjamin F. Leighton, who was appointed
receiver in that cause, yesterday in his
official capacity instituted proceedings
against John G. Slater, the Capital Trust
Company, and Others asking that a re-
ceiver may be appointed to take charge OF
certain property in litigation.
II is explained that on December "a, 1894
John G. Slater gave promissory note for
$4,000, payable 10 the order of Frank A.
Dunn, two years after date. This note was
secured by deed OF trust from Slater and
his wife, TO Edward B. Hughes and Will
liam H. Crosby. trustees, and defendants )
named in this suit. The property conveye /
was the north one-half by the full depth
Of lot 10. in square 40, and the deed OF
trust empowers the trustee to sell the
l property in question in case OF default of
payment
| 1t is also stated by Receiver leighton in
his petition asking for the appointment of
a receiver that on September H. 1895, John
/ G. Slater and his wife conveyed the real
estate 10 Theophilus E. Roessle, also one
/ OF the defendants in the suit, in fee simple,
and he is still the owner thereof subject
TO the deed OF trust. II is also stated that
| the promissory note referred to is over
due and wholly unpaid.

THE ANNUAL REPORT.
Makes No Reference to the Drown,
ings.

The annual statement Of ". Y. Stevens,
Superintendent of the Washington Public
Bathing Beach, was submitted to the Dis
trict Commissioners yesterday. 1t deals at
length with the new system of dressing
room locks recently inaugurated, and re-
fers briefly to the operations of the beach
during the period treated The report
reads in part as follows:
THE bathing season averages 100 days.
located between May Is and September IS
OF each year, so that such report would
cover the last half OF the last bathing
season and the first half of this bathing
season. There is no difficulty in making
the financial report, because the accounts
at the District Office are balanced to that
date and the connecting statement can be
readily furnished, but a report OF the do
ings OF one-half of the bathing season Of
'9s. with half OF the bathing season
OF '99. connected as one year, would be
almost impossible 10 make clear and in
telligible.
The new system inaugurated with the
change Of locks, having been tried for one
busy Sunday, with three quarters of the
new locks on, promises great advantages
and general satisfaction. The system may
be described in brief as follows; Every
house has a different lock and there can
not be a master key made 10 them. The
key has a brass tag with a number on IT..
Keys are hung on boards in the key room.
one board TO one row Of rooms. Each bath
er makes out his entry card as heretofore.
Key clerk hands out key. marks the num-
Der on card and leaves card on that key
nail. Bather unlocks his room. dresses for
the water, returns key TO clerk who hangs
II on its nail over bather's card. Bather
returns from the water. tells his number.
and If the clerk has any doubt his name
also. That being on the card the batheT
receives the key again and unlocls his
door. On his way out everyone must pass
the key window and deliver his key. Then
Il returns 10 the nail and his card is filed
away.
IF bather stays In a long time his
card becomes conspicuous on the board
and the police officer may call him out By
name. II is thought that this system will
enable the present force TO render salts
factory service 10 FIVE times as many
bathers as have ever pstronIzed the beach
In one day. There Will be no checks lost
in the water, no money stolen from single
rooms, and no shIverers bowling for Key

HE STEPPED ON THE DOG.
A bartender Assaults Farmer Who
Wounded His Pet.

Because he accidentally stepped on a
dog, Penn Brooke, a farmer, from Prince
George county, Nd. whose age is given as
thirty-six years, was assaulted with beer
bottle by bartender in a saloon in Ninth
Street. near the Centre Market, about
o'clock yesterday morning. He is now a,
the Emergency Hospital, where he was
taken for treatment. His injuries resulting
from the blow consist of four ugly lacerated
wounds OF the right Jaw, one of which
penetrated the mouth. While the condition
of the man is not serious, he will be per-
manently disfgured.
According TO the story told by Brooke at
the hospital he entered the Ninth Street
saloon in company with friend, and after
ordering drink accidentally stepped on
dog. The bartender, IT is said, remon-
strated in inelegant terms, and quarrel
ensued. The quarrel gained such proper
tions that Brooke decided to leave the
saloon, and as he was doing SO he was
struck by q bottle which he claims was
thrown by the bartender. The bottle broke
on the mans jaw, and the jagged edges
cut deeply into the flesh as stated. Brooke
lost considerable blood before arriving al
the hospital,

An Actor In JniI.

Walter Frederick. alias Walter F. Rochester,
an actor, twenty-eight years of age, is held a
prisoner at No. police station on the COM
plant Of a Mrs. Lamb. The man was arrested
yesterday evening by Detectives Lacey and Hern-
don on a warrant issued at the request of Mrs.
Lamb. The offence with which he Is charged
was alleged TO have been committed several days
ago, and the detectives have been searching for
the man since that time. 1t appears from the
story OF Mrs. Lamb that she employed Frederick,
whom she knew, as a private detective TO aid
her in recovering some furniture which she had
lost. She alleges that the man obtained from
her by false representations SIS, and later got
possession OF a gold watch which he would not
return When the matter was reported TO the
police Detectives Lacey and Herndon investigated
it and learned that the watch had been pawned
at a local pawnbrokers. warrant for the ar
rest Of Frederick followed, and when he was
taken into custody yesterday he admitted that
he was guilty of the offences charged.
