HAVE NO CAUSE TO COMPLAIN.
Lieutenant Amiss Makes Reply to
Mr.. Thomas o. Selfridge.

MIR. Thomas o. Selfridge, of 1867
Kalorama Avenue, recently wrote the
District Commissioners calling attention
to the arrest of driver at Tenth and
Streets northwest because, he alleged,
some straw from load he was hauling
was caught by the trees and left on the
street. He asked that relief be extended
to the farmers who are obliged TO make
use of that street.
The matter was referred through Major
Sylvester to Lieutenant Amiss, of the
First precinct. The lieutenant replied that
il is not the custom to arrest persons who
haul hay and straw TO the city, but that
in the case referred to the man had
large load of short. dry straw, which was
scattered all along the street to such an
extent that it became the subject of re-
mark and led to the arrest OF the driver
Lieutenant Amiss says that certain
lenency has always been shown the coun-
try people who bring produce to the city,
and that they have no cause to complain.

evidence in rebuttal.

MAY Be A CLUE IN
Case OF MRS. DENNIS
Detectives Looking for a
Strange Man.
Called at 1912 Street Northwest and
Enquired for "a '.Nrs. Dennison"
Injured Woman Sinking.

Activity on the part of Detectives Horne
and Hartigan last night. led to the re-
port that something had been discovered
tending to clear the mystery in the Den
mis- assault case.
Denials were all that could be obtained
in police circles, but it is certain that
the detectives are unusually active now
that Mrs. Dennis lies at deaths door.
Wanted to See .Mrs. DcnnisOn."
If any clue has been found in the mys-
terry. there was little to show the trend
of investigation last night. One odd cir
cumstance noted was that this lookout
was sent TO all the precincts Just before
CAPTAIN Boardman left Headquarters for
home at 10 o'clock:
Look out for a nan about forty years
old, ; feet 9 inches tall, weighing 165
pounds. medium build, dark hair and
ewes. He wore black suit, and present
ed a neat appearance. This man entered
1912 X Street northwest some time Thurs
dav. When discovered he stated that he
wanted TO see Mrs. Dennison.
Tell story of Sneak Thief.
Statements Of the police as to the fore
going indicated that it was the belief
that a sneak thief had entered the house
mentioned. and that his capture was i'm
portant. Whether any deeper motive for
his apprehension exists could not be
learned last night.
1t is fact, however, that Detectives
Horne ana Hartigan had talk with Cap
tain Boardman as late as $50 u clock last
night. rather an unusual incident in itself.
The condition of Mrs. Dennis was un-
changed at midnight. She is gradually
sinking Her physicians state that her
condition is one of Inconsistencies,
weakness, and uncertainty.

feet that an effort be made to secure an
amendment to the present law for the

The Law at present provides for the re-

DR.. Woodward states that it cannot be
enforced without enormous cost to the

that If the limit of the growth OF weeds
be placed at twenty-four inches the ex-
