1t is therefore impossible to cure
the disease by local applications.

VICTIM OF BURGLARS.
Residence of Capt. ]. R. Bartlett Entered
ard Robbed.

Capt. John Z. bartlett. U. S. A., of 1922
Twenty-irst Street northwest. was the
victim of thieves yesterday morning be-
fore daylight. Burglars visited his resi-
dence. broke into the house by front
basement window, and stole-s65 in money
and other articles.
The thieves broke off the lock OF the
window. forcing 1t open, and then went
through the house in manner which gives
color to the theory of the police that they
were professionals. They entered the bed
chamber of the army officer, on the Sec
ond floor of the house, and 1t was there
that they discovered the cash, mostly Sc
GREETED in a wallet in a bureau drawer
From the drawer, $50 was stolen, and the
contents were scattered about the floor
On the mantelpiece the thieves found q
cup, in which was $3.50, and they also ap-
propriated this sum. Other valuable prop
erty, including jewelry and quantity OF
silverware In rooms on the first floor of
the house. was not touched. This was for
the reason, the police believe, that such
property, when disposed Of might give a
clew on which the police could work.
Although Captain Bartlett and his
family were asleep in the house at the
time Of the burglary. no one was awak-
ened by the thieves. They quit the dwell
ing in the same manner as that in which
they entered 1t, and 1t was not until after
z o'clock, when the servants aroused the
household, that the robbery was discov-
cred.

LIVERY STABLE FIRE
CAUSES EXCITEMENT
Thousands of Shoppers Attracted to the
Scene by Fierce Flames-horses
Saved by Hard Work.

Considerable excitement was caused yes
terday afternoon in the business section OIL
the city by fire in the sale and livery
stables OF Nicholas schlegel. located in
Temperance Hall Alley between ID and E.
Ninth and Tenth Streets northwest. The
fire started in the hay loft, and within a
few minutes the entire structure was
burning fiercely. After considerable Diff
ficulty the employees Of the stale succeed
ed in rescuing all the horses.
Policeman Sampson. Of the First pre-
cinct. was attracted to the scene by the
huge columns Of smoke which arose from
the burning building. and turned in an
alarm, bringing the fire engines to the
scene. The lremen lost no time in getting
streams on the burning building, and I'M
der the direction Of Assistant Chief Wag-
ner soon had the fire extinguished.
The building was damaged to the extent
of $500. The origin of the fire is unknown
Thousands of shoppers were attracted to
the scene of the fire, and 1t required con-
siderable work upon the part Of the po-
lice to keep them back Of the fire lines.

TWO R0BBERlES REPORTED.
Household Goods Taken Under Similar
Circumstances.

Miss Loina Boswell, of 933 G Street
northwest, has reported 10 the police
that within a month past. while she was
out Of the city. some one took possess
sion of her furniture and other effects,
which she had left In room at 2li d
Street northwest. These articles in
cluded a washstand, bureau, four chairs,
and several pictures. When she .eturned
here on "Wednesday, Miss Boswell said,
all her effects had completely disap-
peared. She TOLD the police that she has
her suspicious rs TO what may have be-
come of the goods, and asked the police
TO see certain persons during their in
yestigation of the case.
A somewhat similar robbery was re-
ported last night by Frank Moore, 800
Street southwest. His residence was en-
tered by breaking the lock of the front
door yesterday morning. Those who en-
tered ransacked the house from top to
bottom. They helped themselves 10 q
parlor and a bedroom suite of furniture
and took other articles of considerable
value. Mr.. Moore, In notifying the po-
lice OF this case, followed the same
course as that taken by Miss Boswell, in
that he suggested certain persons upon

NOT ABLE TO IDENTIFY
YOUNG MANS REMAINS
Body Found at Riverside ir
Decomposed Condition.
Trip of Police Boat to Scene Where
Body of Drowned Man Was Found
Not Very Fruitful.

Owing to its deeomposed condition, the
identify the remains of the young man
whose body foated ashore at Riverside
Sunday morning and were found by a
party of fishermen.
Acting under orders from Captain
Boardman, chief of detectives, Police
Photographer johnson and Detective Ser
geant Fathers went to Riverside yester-
day on the police boat Vigilant, where n
rowboat was procured and the party Wis
tied the spot where the body was washed
ashore. The place of burial is on Little
Hunting Creek, about a mile from the
Potomac. The body had been examined,
it was learned. by Squire Wright, of that
county, who. 1t is said, without placing it
in coffin or wrapping it up. had 1t thrown
into the muddy hank and buried it. Con-
sequently, when the harbor police boat
crew went to dig 1t up it was in such
state that operations had to be suspended,
the grave having filled with water.
Cap Found on Bank.
A cap, purchased from clothing firm
in this city, was found lying about foot
from where the body was inferred, and
was brought TO this city and turned over
to Captain Boardman.
From what could be learned from one
of the men who found the body, 1t was
that of a young man, but was SO badly
decomposed that the features were IN
recognizable. The young man was well
dressed, he stated, wearing blue under
shirt beneath white dress shirt. The
clothes worn were winter garments and
the coat was buttoned tightly about the
neck, showing evidently that the weather
was cold when he met his death.
Dead Several Months.
The fisherman stated that from all ap-
pearances the body had been in the wa
ter for several months.
After seeing it was useless to disinter
the remains. the police boat returned to
this city and made a report OF the matter.
II was at first thought that the body was
that of young WashiDgtoniac who has
been missing for a week, but from what
could be learned the dead mans descrip-
ton failed to tally with that OF the man
missing from this city.

SHORTAGE OF FUNDS In
SCHOOL STREET WORK
Report of Commissioners en-
a Senate Bill.
Suggest That Half of Expense Be Borne
by District and Half by the
Property Owners.

The District Commissioners yesterday
District Committee their report on Senate
bill 5463, For the extension of School
Street southwark to Kenesaw Avenue,
and for other purposes"
map was inclosed with the report in
dicating that the street has no opening
at present on any highway at its southern
extremity. In the cul de sac a public
schoolhouse is located, and the pupils of
this school, as well as vehicles whose
drivers wish to enter the street, are
obliged to make long detour to reach
points on the thoroughfare.
Long Run for Fire Engines.
In case of a fire breaking out at the
school, the nearest fire engine company,
which is located on Fourteenth Street,
between Kenesaw Avenue and Kenyon
Street, and the nearest truck company,
which is on Whitney Avenue, between
Thirteenth and Fourteenth Streets, would
have to make the same detour in order to
reach the school building The report fur
Their says:
The street is not an important high
way, and even II IT were opened would
hardly be an important highway, though
its advantage as a means of access TO the
surrounding property would be consider
able. The cost of the extension at the
present time, also, would be much less
than il the action were taken one or two
years hence. as improvements are likely
TO be placed in the line of the extension.
IL is estimated that the cost of extending
the street at this time would be s17,4l3,
which would be the cost of the land, as
very little grading would be necessary.
This also includes the cost of a double
frame building in the line OF the ex-
tension.
Favored by Commissioners.
THE Commissioners are of the opinion
that while it would be of undoubted ad-
vantage to give the school children and
the fire apparatus a more direct route TO
the school building, the principal benefit
would be TO the surrounding property. II
would, however, be in the general line of
proper development of the city to get rid
of 'butt-end streets. which are a disad-
vantage. At the Game time the Commits
sioners arc unable to recommend the ex-
tension, on account of the state of the
finances of the District, uni"ss the whole
cost is assessed on adjoining property,
which would be difficult TO do, as the i'm
mediately adjacent property can hardly
be considered as benefited 10 that extent.
and while it would be convenience to
property owners more distant, ii is not
thought that jury would assess suffi-
cient benefits to cover the whole cost.
IF the bill is TO be enacted the Com
missioncrs would recommend that half
the cost of the extension be borne by the
United States and half By the District of
Columbia

A JURY OF HIS PEERS
Charged With the Murder of
Mary Wells.
Introduction of Ante Mortem Statement
of Dead Woman Causes Suspension
Of Proceedings.

The trial OF James Freeman, colored
who is charged with the murder of MARY
Wells. also colored, was resumed yes
terday in Criminal Court No. /. Soor
| after the court convened the followine
named persons were selected as specia
jury to pass upon the guilt or innocenc,
OF the accused.

Calender.
statement of what the Government
expects 10 prove was made by Assistant
District Attorney Thomas C. Taylor. the
prosecuting officer. He stated in brief
that testimony would be offered to show
that the defendant and Mary Wells had
lived together a Nailors Alley for about
three months, during which time they
often quarreled, and that Freeman had
threatened her life. He was Jealous of
the attentions she accepted from other
men.
An Alleged Assault.
On the night of January 10 last,
Mr.. Taylor said. IL will be shown that the
Wells woman did not return to her room
until about 1890 p. m. accompanied by
Joseph Reeter and Laura Johnson. both
colored. Freeman, 1t Is said, met Mary
Wells at the back gate and struck her in
the face with his fist, knocking her down
10 L. l...
several minutes. Freeman, it is said,
then carried the woman into the house
and again beat her with his first and
kicked her. Three days later Mary Wells
condition was such that ii was necessary
TO send her TO the hospital, where she re-
NAMED until February last, when she
died from the effects of her injuries.
Attorneys Statement Corroborated.
The first witness called by the Govern
ment was Joseph Reeder, who accom-
panied Mary Wells to her home on the
night that it is alleged she was fatally
injured by the defendant. Laura John
son, colored, also testified. Both of these
witnesses by their testimony substanti-
ally corrobrated the statement made by
tho prosecuting attorney.
After hearing the testimony of these and
several other witnesses Mr.. Taylor offered
the ante norton statement made by Mar
Wells as evidence. Attorneys Royal NJ
Hughes and Fountain Peyton Protested
vigorously against its admission and the
jury was excused In order that the court
might hear argument on the question of
its admissibility. The session OF the
court WAS prolonged until after o'clock
Justice Anderson took the matter under
Amusement, and will announce his decis-
ion this morning.
