JURY TOEINIVESTIGATE
INQUEST OVER BODY TAKEN
FROM JAMES CREEK CANAL.
Testimony to BE Taken Regarding the
Dangerous Condition of the
Waterway.

Six men. serving as sworn Jurors, will
have an opportunity tomorrow to pass upon
the murderous condition of the unprotected
James Creek canal in South Washington.
The panel will be summoned this afternoon
to pass upon the death of Joseph McKenny.
He was the first of yesterdays victims
taken from the filthy stream. His body
was identified this morning by William E.
Padgett, who had worked with him in the
shoe establishment of Potbury & Lee, at
514 11th street northwest
Mckenny was ffty-fve years old and
lived at 215 Poppleton street, Baltimore.
He worked at his trade in this city, and it
is stated was addicted to the use of intoXi-
cants, frequently failing to appear at work
the morning after he received his pay. The
deceased was Well known in Baltimore. He
resided there during the war. Friends who
know MIN at that time say he gained some
notoriety by hosting an American flag over
his house and daring southern sympathizers
to interfere with it,
Relatives will probably take charge of
the pody as soon the inquest is con-
cluded. Mckenny was last seen about ten
Gays ago, and it is the belief of his friends
that he became intoxicated and walked into
the canal at a spot where there is no safe
guard about the bank of the canal
M1chael Deenahan,s body was taken from
the morgue yesterday afternoon by relatives
after certificate of death by drowning had
peen given by the acting coroner. His re-
mains were inferred at Mt. Olivet today.
Acting Coroner Glazebrook decided to
hold an inquest over McKenny's body, not
because he thought crime had been COM
mltted, but in order that testimony might
De taken to show the dangerous condition
OF the sewer outlet and that the jury might
suggest remedy. Remedies have been
suggested before, but the suggestions
amounted to but little, as the conditions
about the canal are no better than they
We're years ago. 1t is the intention Of DR..
Glazebrook to have representative business
men On the jury and the jurors may visit
the scene of the drowning. PhotOgra pher
johnson visited the canal today and took
photograph Of the place where the body
was found.
Maj. Sylvester's- Comment.
In conversation with Star reporter this
morning, Major Sylvester said:
The James Creek canal has long been re-
garded as a menace to health and dan
gerous 'step-off In a thickly populated Sec
tion Of the city.
Every year there are recorded deaths
from suicide or accident in it's locality.
1t is not practical to patrol it with the
police boat and the exposed banks make it
an ideal jumpng-on' place.
4f the canal and new reservoir could be
properly fenced in it would, In a measure,
at least reduce the opportunities for acct
dent and suicide"

SATURDAY, AUGUST Is, 1902.

The meeting of Afro-American
Young Peoples Christian and Educa-
tion congress which met in Atlanta,
Ga, last week was largely attended
and was of such a character as to be
very beneficial to us all. The closing.
meeting was attended by over 5000
persons. The resolutions adopted
were manly and dignifed and ought
to appeal to the better nature of all
who heard them read or read them.
They are in part as follows;
. "Our purpose here has been to deal
with problems which confront the re-
public in it's complex national life, but
more especially to deal with those
problems that are essentially the AT
ro-American's, and which, ins the very
nature Of the case, must be, solved by
him. While on the one hand we have
mad wrongs and grievances many, on
the other hand we have had opportu-
mites and privileges innumerable. .
Z Whatever burdens we may still
have to endure, OF adjustments which
are yet, to be made, we throw our.
selves upon the justice and fair play
OF the American people, North and
South, and prepare our unreseryed
conclusion that right in the end will
prevail. In spite Of theorists and
their theories both before and after
emancipation. we have shown our
!s'Esl' selves able to live and thrive. "A gen:
Grafton ago we came out of bondage
without q foot of land, without home
without name. Even the clothes
which covered our poorly clad bodies
were not ours. Today we have some
land, some homes, some money. Yes
The Appeal., 1902-08-16

terday we had nothing; today we own
millions of acres of land, pay taxes
on property worth millions Of dollars,
and raise more cotton under freedom
than under slavery. s =
Many problems regarding the
mental ability of the Afro American
have been solved. 1t is no longer; a
question as to whether he can learn,
but how much he can learn. After
years OF experience we have. pleasure
in being able to say that our educa-
tional methods are both practical and
effective. While much has been ac-
comp1ished in the. intellectual develop
ment OF our people, candor compels
us to admit that much yet remains to
be done. We earnestly recommend to
our people throughout the country
that they teach their children the dig
nifty. and value of manual labor, and
that they give them the benefit Of an
industrial education, which will en-
able them to enter the worlds indus
tries with as much knowledge, skill
and dexterity as members of the other
races possess. :, y
"That for the purpose of securing
competent men and women to lead the
race in it's struggle for greater knoWl-
edge, purer character, better religion,
nobler manhood and larger accumula-
tion of wealth, we must encourage the
higher education Of as many of our
boys and girls as are susceptible of
higher training. .>..
Our highest aspiration is not that
OF the anarchist, to destroy, or that of
the master, to dominate, but rather
that Of the brother, to cooperate with
our fellow countrymen in building up
on this continent conviction which
will recognize in practice as we'll as in
theory the fatherhood of God and the
brotherhood of man.
While there is still room for a bet
ter and higher moral life among u.s.,
yet unmistakable evidence of a purer
home and Individual life are most
gratifying. In fixing our moral status
we ask you, as matter of fair play,
40 not Judge us by our worst, as has
SO often been done, but rather by our
best y 2.
. 1--WE are cognizant of the civic and
political Inequalities under which our
people are suffering. Nevertheless,
we urge our people to continue to
strive to shape their conduct so that
they may prove themselves deserving
OF any right and privilege now en-
Joyed by every other American citi-
zen. ~
I'VE stand ready to join with the
Anglo-Saxon, learning the same lesson
ne learned from the ancient Greek, to
lay first the root of civilization and
then with light and learning to carry it
