Policeman W. E. Newman. OF the Third
District. Will appear before the Police
Board on tomorrow afternoon a . o'clock
tor the first time since he became a po-
iceman on June 10. 1882. to answer a seri-
Gus charge.
The charge was preferred against him
by Mr.. Charles l.. Todd. Jr., who alleges
that Mr.. Newman was guilty on Monday
afternoon of cruelty and inhumanty to a
taking to the Station-house.
The charge arose over the arrest of
Walker at the residence of Mrs Belle
Hughes on Canal Street near Foushee
He was heard by Superintendent Knowles.
of the Gas Department. making a dis
turbance in the house, the voice of Mrs.
Hughes appealing to him in frightened
tones. while great connection was go
ing on in the house.
Officer Newman WAS in the neighbour
hood at the time. Mrs. Hughes called
him without q warrant" replied the Off
Ger. Finally Mr.. Knowles induced the Of
ftcer to go inside the house to quell the
disturbance and to arrest the man. al
though he maintained that he had no
right to do without warrant.
On the way to the box Walker resisted
violently, and it was with great difficulty
that he was carried along. It was found
that the patrol wagon was in service in
dartook to carry the prisoner to the sta
tion-house. It was at this Il me that the
alleged cruel conduct took place
Major Howard said that Newman's
statement TO him about the case made him
clearly in the right, although he could
not say what the result would be when
the other side had been heard

This decision was practically reached at
a meeting of the committee last night
with four members present-Messrs. Mi
nor. Blanks, ]. NJ. n Allen and Teefey,
the City Engineer snd the City Attorney
This amount looks big. but the work
before the committee is colossal, as stated
by Colonel Cutshaw. The latter said that
1t would take ten years at $500, 900 a year
to completely curb and sewer and pave
thu. streets. with the incidental work OF
putting down gas and water mains. In
outlining the work Colonel Cutshaw e1S-
pressed himself favorably toward the
suggestion made by Councilman Pollard
that the Gas and Water Departments be

issued in each department. So that the

TRANSCRIPT IN
CAMPBELL CASE
1t is a Document of ais Pages
and Will Figure Prominently
at Some Later Date.

The transcript of the evidence in the
trial Of Judge Clarence J. Campbell,
charged with cowhid!ng the Rev. c. II.
Crawford. OF this city, has been COM
pleted by Mr. George l. Hart, OF the
firm OF Morris & Hart. Roanoke Va,
court reporters. and a copy Of 1t has
been forwarded to Judge Campbell and
also to the committee Of Amherst citi-
zens by whom Mr.. Hart was employed.
The document is one Of AS pages, al
though 1t contains none of the long
argument In the case, 1t is highly
interesting record. and it will probably
figure prominently in some more Camp
bell-Crawford proceedings II they arise
The Religious Herald Of this week con-
tains the following:
"A Judge is indeed. a privileged person.
according to the distinguished Amherst
turist. He may-as he at first maintain
ed-haul up any citizen, anywhere, and
punish him sunmarily for holding and
expressing any opinion disrespectful to
the Judges decisions. Failing in this. he
NAV violently assault his critic When
he is called to account for such assault
he may determine the time and place al
which the trial Is to begin, personally Sc
lect the Judge who Is to sit in the case
and select the jury who are to pass
upon his case.
There is something wrong here. sure.

INSURANCE RATES
WILL COME DOWN
Response of City to Demand for
Increased Fire Department
Will Have This Effect.

Insurance rates for Richmond will soon
be lower. It was said yesterday by an
insurance man.
This gentleman went on to say that
the rates had BEEN raised for this city
to compel the city to improve its ia
cilities for fighting fires and preventing
a conflagration. The measures adopted
have had the desired effect to a large
extent. New mains have been laid. as
the insurance man explained, one hrSt
class new engine has been purchased and
a new engine house is being built. a
new and additional company will occu-
py this building when completed.
1t Wa be some months probably before
the companies will bring down their.
rates. but the ready response O. the city
to the demand for a fire depai slent will
be met in proper manner b., .n-ir in
surance companies.
The companies of this city and those
represented here are doing about all the
business they are able. They are well
sat SIZED.
The rates for Richmond vary widely.
The brick residences are the lowest, of
course. These are only . cents on 500.
while factories such as planning mills re-
quire an insurance premium of about 10
per cent.
One insurance man was complaining
bitterly yesterday about the slipshod
manner in which buildings were put UP
in Richmond He named one as an ILL
ustration which had been recently re-
built after being partially destroyed
by fire. The same bricks were used and
the same timber SO far as not actually
burned He thought the building inspector
was an officer sadly needed here.

Train Struck Macon.

The northbound passenger train on the
Richmond, fredericksburg & Potomac
was delayed fifteen minutes or more yes
terday afternoon at Staples Crossing by
quite an unusual accident. At that
point excavations have been made for
the proposed double track, and a wagon
loaded with 1900 pounds of oats and
drawn by a pair of mules had become
stalled, the mules being directly on the
track.
Just at that moment the train was
heard rapidly approaching Mr. Jones,
who lives near by, ran down the track
and waved to the train, which slowed
down slightly. This gave the driver a
chance to get his mules to ap lace of
safety, but the train struck the wagon,
shattering the pole. The steps Of the
front car and the air-brake pipe were
broken, the latter causing the delay.
