4 COURT FOR CHILDREN
Effort to Establish a Separate Tri
burial in New York.
Youthful Offenders Compelled to
cused OF Serious Crfmes-Desfffute
Youngsters Should ne Remov-
ed From Degrading surroundings.

NEW YORK, Oct. 17.-There is pos
sibi1ity of a separate court for children
becoming an accomplished fact in This
city. The opportunity is afforded in con-
neetion with the general revision of the
city charter, and the Importance of the
measure is urged upon the public by the
Charity Organization Society, as it feels
keenIy the necessity of the support of
every parent and of every organization
of women in this city, irrespective of
creed, color, or nationality
1t is proposed that the ehildrens court
shall be held by justices of the Court of
Special Sessions in a building which is al
ready devoted TO the investigation of
destitute children by the Department of
Charities.
For a number of years prominent wo-
men workers in philanthropy have en-
deavored to secure a children'S court
similar to those in operation in Boston
and Chicago Several years ago an at
tempt was made in the New York Leg
islature to annul the Penal Code by pro-
viding a separate court for all cases in
yolying the commitment or tria! OF chill
dren, and this measure was ardently sec
onded by the Society for the Prevention
OF Cruelty TO Children. But through lack
OF public interest the original bill failed,
and the law as finally passed made the
holding OF such court permissible only,
and so far as known no advantage has
ever been taken by the magistrates, who
were thus given discretion.
What will be accomplished ty the
change from the present system is the
removal of the trial of youthful offenders
from the degrading surroundings of rial
for drunkenness, dtsorderly conduct, and
serious crime. Those interested feel tha t
who are charged with petty violations of
city ordinances, or with no worse fault
than tie destitution of their parents.
Charities the official organ of the
society, says: An examination in a
with viii inevitably be far less injuri-
Gus to the self-respect of such children
than a trial in a police court filled with
spectators and occupied during the great
er part of the day with the disposition of
charges against hardened criminals. Spe-
cial knowledge and sounder Judgment
would also come from the opportunity to
specialize upon the disposition of chill

While there were no marks OF violence

and expressed the opinion that Dysart was
dead when placed in the water. He left

absence. attired in citizens clothes. He
had small sum of money at that time.
Friday night he was seen III some of the
saloons of Phoebus. He was a we'll

When found this morning he had on only

The Bryan and Stevenson Democratic
Club, which meets every Tuesday night in
Herper's Hall 467 G Street northwest, was
addressed last night by George Gorham,
who for over a decade was Secretary of
the Senate. Mr.. Gorham had been a life
long Republican up to the time of the can
didacy of Mr.. Bryan. He has renounced all
allegiance 10 the party, and is throwing
himself vigorously into the Democratic
campaign. He is Californian, and refuted
the assumption that Californians are i'm
perialiSts. He declared that no true Amer
lean could support war such as is now
being waged in the Philippines. He as
serted that 1t was unprovoked, unwar-
Tanted, and unconstitutional and he de-
clared that Mr.. Mckinley has violated the
most sacred traditions of America in car
rying it forward.
Capt ]. A. Collins gave thoughtful ad-
dress on the relation of currency and the
trusts. He showed how the aggregation
of capital in the hand OF half a aEhundred
trust magpates is placing the finances OF
the country completely in their control
The District of Columbia Democratic
Association held an enthusiastic meeting
last night in its hall, 904 Pennsylvania Ave

man from New York, made a talk that
was listened to with unusually close inter-

robbed of employment by the giant cor

that imperialism would profit the country
