A Splendid Chase but the "(.oon,,
Was Not Caught

"A Splendid Chase but the "CoOn''
Was Not Caught
Constable Connor went up above
Craigville last Monday and ar
rested Boss Loins, oo1ored, on n
warrant charging him with steal
ing about $35 worth of clothiap
and a watch and accordeon from q
negro ut work on the Catawba
dam. MIR. Connor found his man
and also one suit of the missing
clothes and was on his way to iail
with him when at Cane Creek the
negro broke and ran into the
swamp. The constable shot twice
at the fleeing negro but failed to
stop him. He phened from Craig
vile to the Sheriff Of the escape
and Sheriff Hunter and Jailor
Horton took the blood hounds and
went at once to the place whore
Boss got away. Though two hours
had elapsed the dogs took up the
trail quickly and ran it for sever
al hours. They lost it at a cabiu
on the roadside and could never
take it up again. 1t is thought
the negro did something there to
throw the dogs off the track. They
say the chase was the best thew
have ever had with the dogs, but
they failed to catch the "coon."

MR.. wALsHs RESIDENCE.
Beginning of the Work Of Building a
Spacious Home.

The grading Of the ground at the south
east corner of Massachusetts, avenue and
21st street, which was recently purchased
by Mr.. Thomas F. Walsh, has been begun.
At present the lot is at a considerable
height above the grade of the street, and
as the residence which Mr.. Walsh proposes
to erect there for his own use is to have
an entrance about on the street level, the
work that is now being done is preliminary
to that Of beginning the building of the
house. as soon as the superfiuous earth is
removed from the building space. Owing to
the extent Of the space. which is about
$50 feet square, this is an undertaking of
some magnitude. and it is the intention of
Mr.. Walsh to soon begin the excavation for
the foundations of the house.
The plans are now being prepared, but
at the present time sufficient progress has
not been made to show the exact extent
of the building or the character Of the ma
terial which win be used 1t is probable.
however, that the house, which will be of
a size to correspond with the ample build
ing space, will be constructed of stone, and
will represent a high type Of domestic
architecture.

PRACTICALLY ASSURED.
Believed That Permit for Market
House VIII Re Issued.

According to statements made this morn
ing at the District building it is practically
assured that the Commissioners will grant
the permit for the construction Of n mar
ket house on the east side of 18th street
just above street northwest. Commits
sioner Macfarland this morning was in con-
sultation with the District assessor, Mr.. II.
H. Darneille, going over the papers, and It
was ascertained that the market company
has complied with the Law in securing a
majority consent of the property in the
block confronting the proposed site. There
was one disputed piece of property in
Guided in the majority in the case of the
Daingerfield lot Mr.. Daingerfield has now
eluc1dated matters by Withdrawing his con-
sent for the market, making it unnecessary
to settle the point of law as to whether
he or the trustees holding title to the
property involved Were the parties privi-
legged to represent it. Mr.. Daingerfield for
meriy consented to the market, while his
trustees protested.
Leaving out the Daingertield property, it
Is said, it was found today that the pro-
motors of the market still have the consent
OF majority of the land in the block con-
fronting. This being compliance with the
law, according to the opinion rendered yes
terday by the attorney for the District,
ana 1t not being necessary, under his ruling,
to secure the consent of the street prop
erty owners, there seems to be no obstacle
in the companys pathway.
In the block confronting the market side,
the west side of 18th street. between V and
w streets, 1t has been figured out, there
are 5J,OG2 square feet. Eight owners each
representing 2,40O square feet, have given
their consent This gives the market the
favor of 1920 square feet, a narrow ma
lor1ty. The owners who have consented are
James H. Rowland, Mary j. Moore Cath
airline Lucy North, William Metzger, Jane
McClosky, Robert Portner. James T. Du-

nj md
others, 1,709 square feet; Irene S. French,

FOREIGN POLICY DISCUSSED.
Views Adverse to Course of United
States Government.

An address on "Our Recent Foreign Pol
ICY was delivered last evening by Charles
J. Bonaparte Of Baltimore at St. Paul
Parish Hall, 18th and streets. This lee
ture was in the complimentary course
given by the st. Pauls Union.
The views of the speaker were not IN
accord with the policy now being pursued
by this government. He said the Teller res
olution was a sacrilegious parody on the
Declaration of Independence, and expressed
the opinion that the Cuban would never
gain autonomy. An exorbtant price was
paid for the Philippines, he declared, espe-
cially when it is considered that the islands
could have been secured for nothing. he
said this government is wasting money IN
trying to educate irreclaimable savages.
mo one believes that the Fiipinos can
establish stable government he con-
Guided. And certainly it would cost us
too much to make them citizens. We would
probably be very sorry if We did accom-
plish it,
