Explain Mystery.

Considerable mystery surrounds the

in houses that had been vacated by their
owners for the summer. The alarms
were placed in the houses for protec-
tion of property during the absence Of
the occupants.
Inspector r. C. Lugenbell. who has
charge of the alarms. notified Sergeant
Sullivan. of the Third precinct, that
shortly after o'clock yesterday morn
ing he received an alarm from one of
the houses. He instantly signaled
back and was about to mount wheel
and go to the residence when the in
strument licked back 20. X.
Police Search Neighborhood.
The return was received in the usual
form. and in the opinion OF the inspector
it was sent by some person experienced
in telegraphy. Sergeant Sullivan, In
spector Lugenbell and two men went to
the house where the alarm was sprung
The policemen secured the neighbor-
hood for strangers. but not a person
was found. The houses were all entered
and searched. but nothing was found
missing, nor were the wires out Of
order.
The affair IS of decidedly mysterious
character. The alarms are the proper
ty o! the Mutual District Messenger
Company. II is believed at the office of
the company that the signal 20. k
was sent in by thief who is evidently
familiar with the working Of the alarms.
II is supposed that he entered the house
without knowing OF the burglar signal.
and realizing he was in a dangerous
position. tapped the wire and sent
the signal 20. k meaning everything
was all right and that there would be
no need of the inspector visiting the
premises.
Owing to the fact that numerous
houses have been burglariZed in that
section of the city during the past two
nights. the police have come to the con-
clusicn that the intruder is member
of gang of burglars.

SUPREME COURT WILL
Be BUSIEST In YEARS
No Homicide Case, But
Others OF Importance.
Justice of Peace Question, Rebecca
Taylor and O'Brien Cases Among
Those for Hearing.

The coming fall term of the Supreme
Court of the District will be the most
important session held for many years.
While there is no homicide case upon
the docket, there are a large number
of cases of both public and private in
terest which will demand the attention
OF the courts.
One of the first matters to be taken
UP will be the question of the validity
of the code provision relating to the
offices of justice of the peace. At pres
ent there are two petitions before the
Supreme Court OF the District. asking
for decision in the matter. 1t is safe
to say. however. that no matter how the
question is decided In the lower court,
1t will be taken to the Court OF Appeals
of the District for final adjudication.
Rebecca Taylor Case.
The Rebecca Taylor case is next in
Importance. This involves the power
and authority OF head of a govern
mental department to dismiss an en-
ploye, under the classified service, with
out first having given written notice
of the offense with which he or she is
charged, and also ample opportunity to
answer.
In the criminal division Of the court
probably the first case of public inter-
est that will be called. is that of ex-
Corporal Richard O'Brien, who is
charged with perjury, the specific Of
fense being the alleged maiigning Of
officers and enlisted men OF the Ameri-
can army, while on duty in the Philip
pines.
O'Brien wss indicted as the result Of
testimony given before the Senate COM
mittee, relative to the conolct Of the
army in the Philippine Islands. Then
there are several murder cases on the
docket and one or two suits for malic-
ious libel.
Many Divorce Suits.
The equity and circuit branches of
the court will also be kept busy for sev
eral months. The telephone cases will
come up again for consideration, in
with the decision of the Su-
preme Court of the United States. Sew
eral Indian land claim cases, and about
200 suits for divorce and separate sup
port. have been pending without action
since the code went into effect. These
will be pressed to a final hearing as
early as possible.
