Senator Quay COmplimented.

Senator Quay COmplimented.
At meeting of the Active Maryland Re-
nublican Association of Washington, held
last evening at Metzerott Hall. resolutions
offered by Mr.. William B. Severe were
adopted to the effect that the club most
heartily indorses the action Of the Harris
burg legislature in returning to the United
States Senate Matthew Stanley Quay, and
that the members fully appreciate the
triumph of party organization over mug
wumpery.'
The principal address of the evening was
made by Mr. w. o. Beckenbaugh of Mary
land He denounced in vigorous terms the
proposed action of Gov. Smith OF Maryland,
who, 1t is alleged, is about to call the legls-
lature of that state together for the pur-
pose of passing law, under which the
colored vote will be DISTINGUISHED. Mr..
Beckenbaugh predicted that If such law
should be enacted, the people OF the unl,eo
States, from one end to the other, will rise
up in opposition; also that the supreme
Court will declare 1t null and void. He also
fiercely denounced the civil service law.
and said it would not be long before COM
mittee of 800 or 400 republicans from Mary
land alone, headed by their senator's and
representatives. will call on President Nc
Kinley and ask that he take some steps to
put more republicans in office.
Col H. G. Worthington also denounced
the civil service law and declared that 81
per cent of the present government officials
are democrats.
Col A. w Spates of Baltimore spoke
along the same lines as had Mr. Becken-
baugh, after which resolution was adopt
ed placing the club on record against the
civil service law and stating that 1t will
join similar organizations in opposition to

Mr.. Severe. as chairman of the committee
on permanent quarters reported that prog
ress was being made toward securing a
suitable home at the building already Sc

Driver Fined Five Dollars,

John B. Mccoy, driver Of a public vehicle,
was tried in the Police Court this morning,
charged with refusing to convey a passen-
ger at the legal rate. Miss Alice N. Parker
was the prosecuting witness in the case
The 18th Of this month. it was declared,
she telephoned to the Herdic company for
a cab. The company had no vehicle in the
stable and Mccoy was called from stand
Miss Parker having ordered vehicle to call
for her at o'clock. Mccoy charged her
fifty cents for a trip of seven squares, and
when Miss Parker objected to paying more
than the legal fare the driver ordered her
out of his vehicle, compelling her to get
out in the rain.
1t was the drivers contention that he
waited for Miss Parker fifteen minutes and
for this reason he made the extra charge.
Judge Kimball said the case was an ag-
gravated one and imposed fine of IS on
the driver.

MOTION ovERRULED.
Judge SCOTS Action in Case of Geo.
w. BARTLETT.

Judge Scott today in the Police Court
overruled the application made Wednesday
by Attorney Colyer for the release from
custody Of George W. Bartlett, who Ia
charged with assaulting three little girls
living In Anacostia. The full particulars
of the cases have been already printed in
The Star. Bartlett will be tried in the
United States branch Of the Police Court by
a jury at an early day.
In announcing his opinion Judge Scott
said in part:
After the United States had introduced
testimony to support the charges as set
forth in the information the defendants at
torney declined to introduce evidence and
moved the court to dismiss the cases, al
leging want of Jurisdiction because The In
formations upon which defendant was being
tried set forth a different offense than that
disclosed in the warrant on which the de-
PENDANT was brought within this jurisdic-
ton under extradtion proceedings.
The defendants attorney cont eh,lad that
as the defendant was extradited from Penn
sylvan'a upon warrant charging him with
assault with the intent to commit rape
he could not be held or tried upon in
formation charging assault, and to sustain
that contention, among other cases. cited
the case of the United States against
RauScher a controlling authority on the
question raised by him. That case cannot
be made to apply to the question under
ground of a right given implicitly by the
terms of treaty between the United States
and Great Britain, as we'll as expressly by
the acts of Congress in the case of a IuSi-
tive surrendered to the United States py a
foreign nation.
THE exact question involved in the &C.
PENDANTS contention is ably presented in
the case of Lascelles against Georgia, in
an opinion Of the Supreme Court of the
United States delivered by Mr.. Justice
Jackson. in which the difference between
eXtradition under treaty sipulations be-
tween foreign nations and interstate rendi-
ton is considered the one depending upon
the treaty contract, while in the other there
is the binding force and obligation not Of
contract, but of the supr me law of the
land, which imposes no conditions or limi-
tatons upon the Jurisdiction and authority
of the state to which the fugitive is re-
turned.
THE learned Justice, after citing the con-
st:tutional provision authorizing intersta tie
rendition and the acts of Congress prescrib-
ing the methods of procedure on the part
of the state demanding the surrender of a
fugitive charged with some particular Of
fense says such fugitive, has not the same
right of exemption as one extradicted from
a foreign nation.
