ALEXANDRIA AFFAIRS
WILLIAM DADE IN JAIL AWAIT
ING REQUIsITIoN PAPERS.
Wanted in Pennsylvania, but Crime
Not Stated-Cases Before
Police Court.
Evening Star Bureau,
No. 707 King street,
Bell TeleDhOne No. luS-


Bell Telephone. No 1O6,
ALEXANDRIA, Va, Septe mber IL, 1892.
A colored man named William Dade is
confined at the station house awaiting the
arrival of requisition papers from Penn
syiVania for his removal to that state for
trial on a felonious charge. The exact
nature of the accusation against him is not
known to the local police but it is believed
to be serious. since the authorities at
Apollo. Pa, have gone to considerable
trouble to trace Dade with a view of get
ting him back in their jurisdiction. The
prisoner states that he got into trouble
with woman at that place and that he
struck her and fed He alleges that she
endeavored to assault him with an AK
which he managed to wrest from her hands.
The officers think 1t not improbable that
he is charged with assault with the
weapon, which, he says, he secured from
the woman.
Detective Miller of WASHINGTON came
here this morning to get the prisoner, if
possible, as the police of that city had
been asked to look out for him. He was
brought before Mayor Simpson, but fatty
refused TO accompany the detective without
requisition papers. and was remanded 10
his cell to await the call of the Pennsyl-
vania authorities. Dade is a resident of
this city, but has been in Apollo for some
time Soon after his return here yesterday
the police department was requested to
capture him. and last evening he was Sc
cured by Officer Lyles. The prisoner has
an unenviable police record.
Penalties in Police Court.
There were several petty cases before
Mayor Simpson in the police court this
morning. Josephine Cole, colored, got into
trouble for assaulting Henry Dixon, and
was assessed s.. A colored man named
Henry Simms was caught attempting to
enter railroad car on Union street and
the affair cost him s.. John Simras of
Fairfax county, who is well known in this
city as street singer of sentimental and
patriotic ballads, and who frequently has
to pay for the privilege, was before the
court for indulging in his favorite hilarity
to the distraction of peaceabe citizens
John didn't have the necessary s. and was
given twenty days In which to labor with
the chain gang. The disorderly conduct of
John Doe, Charles Williams and Frank
Smith, circus men, cost them s. apiece.
Death of Mr.. Chauncey.
Joseph E. Chauncey a well-known citi-
zen Of Fairfax county, died early this
morning after a brief Illness at his home
In West End. He was sixty-six years of
age, and is survived by one son-Julian
Chauncey. The deceased was a familiar
figure in the market house where for fifty
years he conducted a butchers stall. The
arrangements for the funeral will be made
later.

A NEW LITERARY JOURNAL.
ONE TO BE PUBLISHED BY COLUMBIA.

The department Of comparative literature at Co
lumbia University of which Professor George Ed
ward Woodberry is the head, is contemplating
new literary project. 1t is the establishment OF d
journal of Comparative Literature" This protest
has grown out OF the recognition In Europe or the
graduate work of the department, which first at
tracted attention on the Continent and in England
by its series of Studies in Literature. The three
initial volumes of this series appeared in lSSS NJ
Brunetiere in the Revue des Deux Mondes.' rec
ognized in them certain traits of method which
we ourselves have been advocating" The London
Spectator" spoke OF them speaking well for
both the present and the future of the American
university the centres and seed plots of culture
and "The London Daily Chronicle" asked why our
own English scholars cannot give work Of the
same kind" The chief Continental reviews de
voted long articles 10 the series.
The expenses of the periodical for the first year
have been guaranteed by friends of the depart
ment. II will appear quarterly. and will be de-
voted to the general field Of literature and its his
tory Its work will be largely restricted to literary
studies in which comparative element enters, or
in which the general course Of European literature
Is involved
Promises Of cooperation have been received from
many European scholars, including Professor Alos
Paris; Professor G. Gregory Smith of Edinburgh;
Professor Pho Rama, of Florence; Professor L. p.
Betz, of Zurich: Professor P Toldo, of Turin, and
Professor Won Waldberg. of Heidelberg. The first
number will probably appear in December or jan
uary.

DIR. HIRsCH URGES JEWS 70 KEEP Sun
DAY INSTEAD

Chicago. May 1.-THE Sabbath Of the Jews
is dead. Let US bury 1t. God never ordained the
Sabbath Day. II is an institution OF man. Only
millionaires and psdlers can observe the Jewish
Sabbath in these days Of activity. Sunday to
all intents and purposes already has become
our day Of rest. The inspiration of the Sabbath
can be restored only by participating in the
food Of life about US and recognizing as our
day Of rest the day set apart by the nations in
which we live"
These declarations were made last evening
by DR.. Emil G. Hirsch in the course Of a ser
mon at Israel Temple, in which he urged the
substitution by the Jews of Sunday for the
Sabbath Of the Decalogue.
Sentiment must be thrown to the four
winds" he said, "and must realize that it
has come to be with US a question of economic
and industrial life or economic and Industrial
death. We have no right to put aside oppor-
tunity to do good for others simply because SEN
tment demands that we remain idle on a day
of activity. No lawyer has the right to place
sentiment will not permit him to go to court on
Saturday. No merchant has the right to i'm
peril his independence by closing his store on
the Jewish Sabbath
After urging that the Sabbath institution has
been the cause of preserving the lives of the
prosecuted Jews whom he called heroes" for
more than fifteen centuries. DR.. Hirsch pleaded
for the adoption of Sunday the Jews Sab

THEY CAUSE MUCH EXCITEMENT IN OHIO TOWN.
Akron. Ohio May 17.-An attempted assault on
a young woman near Cuyahoga Falls to-day by
three negroes caused much excitement, and for a
while threatened TO end in violence toward the
alleged assailants. The young woman, named
Moore, was attacked and robbed of her purse by
the negroes. who afterward attempted TO assault
her. Her screams brought help and the negroes
ran away. The workmen in the plant OF the
Cuyahoga Falls Wire and Steel Company left the
shop and gave chase. The negroes were seen TO
swim the river and run up the railroad track
toward Hudson. Several of the pursuers near
Metz secured handcar, by means of which they
caught up with the fleeing negroes whom they
brought back the Falls Here a large crowd
surrounded them, and only the arrival of Sheriff
Kelly and two deputies prevented trouble. Inc
men were brought TO Akron, where they gave their
names as viii" Brant." "Wiu" Upshaw and

that a man, confessing to be one OF Nora
Fuller's murderers, has surrendered to the
city marshal at that place. He says he Is
John Bennett, for whom the police have
been searching for several months.
In an interview at the Jail Bennett as
serted he would make a full confession,
which would implicate some Of the most
prominent men in SAN Francisco. He
acknowledged tha he was mixed up in the
AFFAIR at first. but asserts that he was not
the real murderer. He says he has been
supplied with money to aid him in evading
the officers until last month, when the
financial supplies ceased.
Bennett says Nora Fuller went with him
to the Suffer street house OF her own free
will.
"I have here letters in my pocket" says
Bennett, showing where the real culprits
have sent me money to keep out Of the
way, but when they have neglected me ii
gives me the excuse to end the awful fear
and suspense to which l have been sub
jected."
The alleged Bennett answers perfectly the
description Of the supposed murderer.

ing a description Of the prisoner from the
city marshal at Sedro today Chief Of Police
