LITIGATION OVER A CHILD.
Hnbeas Corpus Proceedings BeRun
by Mrs. Lillian Skinner

Hnbeas Corpus Proceedings Begun
by Mrs. Lillian Skinner.
Mrs. Lillian r. Skinner yesterday inst
tuted habeas corpus proceedings against
her husband, Claude A. Skinner, to regain
possession OF her eight months-old child,
Annie l.. Skinner. The petitioner states
that she was married to the respondent In
December, 1896, and that during the year
1899 the child which is the subject OF the
proceedings was born. Soon after, Mrs.
Skinner states, she became Ill, and went
TO the Garfield Hospital for treatment.
During her absence she gays her husband
took the child and carried her to his
mother. and that when she left the hos
pital he refused to return 10 her or give
her the child.
She then had Mr.. Douglas, member Of
the Board of Childrens Guardians to apply
to her husband for the possession of the
child, but her husband refused TO re
lease her 10 him. Mrs. Skinner states that
the child is OF such an age TO require the
attentions as only a mother can give. and
for this reason asks that she be restored 10
her.
She also states that her husband has as
saulted her and abused her, and for this
cause she is afraid to go to his home.
Since she left the hospital she says that
she has been residing with Mrs. Major
Bayliss, at 1910 Ninth Street northwest
Her petition was filed through Attorney Fl.

EXCISE BOARDS REPORT.
The District Commissioners Trans
nit IL to Congress.

The District Commissioners transmitted
to Congress yesterday a report on the
operations of the Excise Board for the
year ended October 81 1899. During that
period the board issued BIC barroom
licenses and 126 wholesale licenses for the
sale of intoxicating liquors, and rejected
twenty-three applications for barroom
licenses and five applications for whole
sale licenses. From November l, 1899. to
March /, 1900 J2l application for barrOom
licenses We're filed, 495 of which were
granted and six rejected, leaving undis-
posed of twenty OF the l26 applications
for wholesale licenses 122 have been al
lowed, three have been rejected, and one
remains undisposed of.
From March /, 1899, to March l. 1900
thirty-seven persons have been convicted
of violating the excise law. The total
amount OF fines imposed was s11. $50. Of
which sum but $3.50 was paid. leaving
balance of $1,000 unsolicited. due to the
fact that large number of the convicted
parties elected 10 serve Imprisonment
rather than pay the fines imposed upon
them.
