ACQUITTED OF BOTH CHARGES
johnson T. Heare Exonerated by
Police Court jury.

johnson T. Heare, who was on trial be-
fore jury in Judge Mills branch of the
Police Court yesterday afternoon on two
charges of assault, was acquitted of both
charges late in the afternoon by the jury.
who returned a verdict of not guilty in
each of the two cases.
Mr.. Heare is the proprietor of a restau-
rant at the corner of Sth and d streets
northwest, and the charges of assault
against him We're filed at the instance of
Mrs Jennie Hasam and Mrs. Nellie Voor-
hees, who are attached to the Homeward
Bound Mission, at 10 Pennsylvania avenue
northwest. The evidence for the prosecu-
ton was to the effect that the ladies en-
tered Mr.. Heare's place of business about
10 o'clock the night of August 16 last for
the purpose of selling some religious papers.
and that Mr.. Heare elected them from the
saloon by pushing them through the door.
Mr.. Heare, in his own behalf, and a num-
Der of witnesses for the defense testified
that he requested the ladies to leave the
restaurant several times and after thew
had refused he placed his hand on their
shoulders and walked with them to the
front door, telling them that they would
have to go out.
Mr.. Peyton Gordon conducted the case
for the government and Attorney Albert
Sellers represented Mr.. Heare

POLICE CALL IN TREASURY
Two Ways by Which Communication
Can Be Established.

The electrical engineer of the District
Walter c. Allen, has submitted a state
ment to the Commissioners with regard to
the request Of the Treasury Department
that police call be located in or near that
building. Major Sylvester has stated he is
in favor OF granting the request if the call
box could be located without cost to the
District Of Columbia there Is no appro-
prlation, so far as he knows, that can be
drawn upon for the expense.
The electrical engineer after considering
the matter says:
There are two ways in which the con-
nection can be made between the police
department and the treasury building The
first is by placing patrol box in or near
the room Of the captain of the watch, con-
nected direct with the police patrol sys-
TEN. This would cost $135 for the box
and approximately 500 for connection with
the patrol system, which is entirely under
ground in that section Of the city.
THE other way is to place an ordinary
telephone in the room occupied by the cap
tain of the watch and connect the same
with the switchboard at fire alarm head
quarters. Through this connection the
Treasury Department could secure imme-
date communication with the first or any
other precinct which might be desirable
This telephone could be placed in service at
cost approximately of $40 for instruments
and $40 for connecting them to the exist
ing wires
In either case I am strongly of the opin-
ion that the Treasury Department should
bear the cost of installation, in the same
manner In which other government depart
ments have paid for the installation of fire
alarm boxes. The funds of this DEPART
ment are so low that / do not feel justified
in recommending the charge to be made
against them. OF the two methods pro-
posed l would recommend that the regular
police box be put in, as it would give the
Treasury Department direct communication
with the first precinct station house with
out the Intervention of the operator at fire
| alarm headquarters, where slight delay
might at times occur through the line be-
ing busy"
The Commissioners have approved the re-
port.

CASE CONTINUED.
Young Woman Charged With Con.
Quoting Business Without License

Judge Bundy this morning to answer to a
charge Of conducting palmistry estab-
lishment without a license. Miss Walton

ed at the District building. but that the is

notified of the denial of her application;
whereupon the case was continued until
