c. p. CONNOLLY-Former county
attorney, I hope the president will re-
cover. He is a good man and his death
would be hard blow to the country.
WIN. BROWNFIELD-Every one must
feel personally outraged at the dastardly
deed. Whether the president RECEIVERS or
not and let us hope he will get we'll,
there ought to be no room on this earth
for the assassin.
WIN. HORGAN-It is impossible to es-
innate the awfulness of the calamity. 1t
is early hoped for the welfare Of the ma
ton, as we'll as for Mr.. Mckinley HIM
self, that the president will recover
r. H. PAXSON-It is an awful blow.
It's suddenness adds to it's borrow. Presi-
dent Mckinley has always been an edl-
flying home man and beacon of light for
American citizenship. The crime is most
deplOrable.
JOHN MAGUIRE-Hangin or electro
cution would be too good for the man
that shot the president. If had him to
deal with l would either put him on the
rack or throw him into a den Of rattle
snakes and vipers and keep him there un-
til the reptiles finished him.
MAYOR W. H. DAVEY-"t Is
terrible state of affairs when
the chief executive of the ma
ton cannot go out IN pubic
for an outing in a time of profound
peace, without being made the target
/ for an assassin's pistol If there were
anything to be gained by such dast-
ardly shooting, it would be different. If
Mckinley, or any other man were d.
rectly responsible even. for the state of
society which cranks deplore and seek
to change, 1t would be different. But
no one man is responsible. Society IS
what the mass Of the people make 1t.
and no one man chan change it, by his
life or death. The shooting Is without
the faintest justification, even on the
most rabid anarchistic grounds. If the
assassin had succeeded in his object,

ACCUSED DISMISSED. William Brew-
Der, who conducts saloon near the
Stone Bridge, was before the Mayor
this morning charged with keeping his
saloon open on Sundays. The com
plainant was Mrs. Florence Cornwell,
who lives opposite 10 the house for
many years occupied by the late
Townsend Bsggett. She testified 10
substance that tramps carried kegs,
which seemed to he heavy, from the
place on Sunday mornings and return
ed with them 10 the evening when they
we're apparently empty. The accused
denied that he had sold beer or other
intoxicsnts on Sunday, and the Mayor
did not deem the evidence conclusive
from the fact that the plaintiff could
not tell what was 10 the kegs as they
were generally placed in bags before
they we're brought from the saloon.
The Mayor, while he dismissed the
charge against Brawner OF violating the
Sunday law, sdmonisbed him that al
lowing bis piece TO be open on Sunday
was an iDfraciion Of the law, and that
were parti found 10 his saloon or on
bis premises on Sunday and he were
reported he would be fned. AS was
stated yesterday, the Mayor will en-.
deavor to bring about more salutsry
order OF things in the neighborhood Of
the Stone Bridge, and the police have
been instructed to keep sharp look
out In that vicinity go that people en-
tering or leaving the city via Duke
street extended may have nothing to
complain OF 10 future. The apprehen-
sion of Brawner was the outcome OF
numerous complaints from that neigh
borhood.

FAVOR THE LooP.-For q long time
Il has been the opinion Of numbers of
people in this city that the application
of the electric railway company to form
q loop by constructing one square OF
track either on PRICE or Wolfe street
should be granted, In the interest OF
public safety, II for nothing else. Peo-
pie who favor granting the application
are filed with apprehension every time
they see train back from King into
Royal street, as 1t Is believed sooner or
later come one will be killed at that
crowded intersection. Sometimes while
this procedure is being enacted large
crowds are gathered at that point list
eniog to street peddlers or preachers,
and she danger to life and limb is ap-
parent. II is saidthe railway company
is willing to pave the square with any
material the city may designate II they
are allowed the right OF way from Fair
fax to Royal street. Those fsvoring
the plan urge that as the company
use Q loop 10 Washington. there is
no valid reason why there could not be
one here. Council was willing to grant
the petition of the company, but prop
erty-owners on Prince street, between
Fairfax and Royal, for reasons best
known to themselves, objected. Prob
ably mcss of them could be induced to
cor sant if the company paved the
SQUARE 10 q modern manner and 1t were
expressly stipulated that no cars would
be stopped on the square.

wharf at the foot Of Ferry alley, which
has been in a state of disintegration for

on II has been converted into nuisance
by longshoremsn and boys, both white

eral years been leased by the Wash

JUMPED THE TRACK.-Wilkes street
tunnel was block ed from about four
O'Clock yesterday evening until nearly
midnight by the derailing OF heavy
coal car. The car, which was in long
train, jumped the track while passing
through the tunnel and the crew being
unaware of the fact kept the train NOV
log. As consequence the axles were
twisted and the car was wedged tightly
against both walls. Considerable
trouble was experienced in releasing the
car from the stone work, as there was
danger Of damaging the masonry. After
hours of labor it was finally accomplish
ed. Railroad men cay the dimensions
OF the Wilkes street tunnel are so con-
tracted that 1t is impossible to get large
locomotives or modern freight cars
through 1t. Hence the necessity for
the proposed route around the city.
An up to-date passenger car could not
pass through, and at present the tunnel
can only be used for care Of certain d.
mansions.
