ARREST RESISTED BY FAMILY.
Mother, Brother, and Sister of Pris-
oner Came to His Aid

Policeman Johnson. of the Second pre-
cinct. had his hands full Saturday when
he attempted to arrest William Wooden,
colored. thirty years old, for petit lar
ceny. The whole Wooden family resisted
the arrest
The negro had been taking the panes
Of glass from the windows in a vacant
house. and Johnson went to arrest him.
He took him to the call box at Third and
Streets. and sent for the wagon While
at the box John Wooden, q brother of
the man who was arrested, came Up and
demanded that Johnson release his broth
er. under pain Of great bodily harm.
johnson advised the brother to 90 away,
but the advice was not taken.
John began to use very abusive language
to the policeman. The latter placed him
nnder arrest, having a warrant for him
ON charge of dis0rderly conduct The
two brothers decided that the policeman's
strength was not equal to their combined
energies, and began to fight for liberty
Their sister Mary Wooden, appeared on
the scene and belabored the policeman
with his stick, which had fallen to the
ground. After she had exhausted herself
in that line she threw the club away.
Then the mother appeared and demanded
that her boys be released. Just as she
appeared the girl struck johnson in the
face. He tried to return the blow. when
the mother went between them and re-
ceived Johnson's fist in the face
When the wagon arrived all of the
who was held by the policeman The
wagon went In pursuit of the fleeing fam
lily, and the mother and the daughter
were captured. John Wooden escaped.

Speaking of national legislation, Repre-

tant questions we will be called upon 10
deal with will, in my opinion, keep US IN

an attempt will be made by some mem

THE LOUISVILLE COLLECTOR.
The appointment of J. A. Craft to he
Urged to the President.

Representative Vincent Boreing, Sem
ator Deboe and Ex-Governor Bradley, Of
Kentucky, will call at the W-Ite House
this morning by appointment and discuss
with the President the selection OF a sue
cessor to Charles E. Sapp. whose resig-
nation as internal revenue collector for
the Louisville district has been accepted
by President Roosevelt.
Collector Sapp resigned. it is said, be-
cause it was intimated to him that he was
a half Mr. Sapp had been in disfavor
with the Civil Service Commission, and he
had been recommended for removal for
alleged violation OF the civil service law.
The leading applicant for the Louis
Vile collrctorship is J. A. Craft. He is
said to be endorsed by Representative
Boreing, Ex-Governor Bradley and num-
Der OF influential Gold Democrats. Sam
uel stone is endorsed by Internal Revenue
Commissioner Yerkes, Representative lr-
win. OF Louisville; Pension Agent Combs,
Internal Revenue Collector Roberts and
Col. Dick Knott. Edward Green is en-
dorsed by Senator Deboe, and Theodore
Stern has the influence OF leading Ger
man-Americans of kentucky.
The fact that President Roosevelt sent
for Ex-Governor Bradley to discuss with
him Kentucky appointments lends color
to the report that MIR. Craft is the favor
ite, and the indications point to him as
Sapp's successor.
1t was said yesterday that a number
Of letters had been received at the White
House protesting against the appointment
of Mr.. Stone, and this fact has depressed
the supporters of that gentleman. From
what could be learned last night, Presi-
dent Roosevelt will not name the col
lector Of the Louisville district until the

Che.ib Bey, the Turkish Minister mas
leased a house on Mintwood Place, just OH
Columbia Road. and will locate the lega-
tion there at once.
At the pre- sent time. the legation is at
Cleveland Park. near Red Top, and is quite
out Of the way for ofici;.is who may have
business with that legation. This So
cluded place WAS chosen by the former
Turkish Minister. who brought his wlfe TO
Washington with him. and who had con
siderable trouble in protecting her from
the vulgar gaze of curious people IN the
city who had an inortiinate desire to see
the face of a woman upon whom II Was
urofane for any other Ilan than a mem
her Of her family to look.
The new Turkish Legation is not SO wen
located as Chekib Bey had wished, put
for some reason. none of the owners OF
large houses in the closely settled ana
exclusive parts of the city would come TO
his terms and then it is pretty hard on
a nice private residence TO turn II INTO
home for a foreign legation. Few own,
ers are willing to do il, without several
times the remuneration that would De re-
ceived from some private family.
The Turkish Legation has as its ilrst
secretary Djelal Bey. an accomplished
musician. linEuist, and finished man OF
the world. who bids fair to be great
favorite in Washington this winter.
