NO CANTEEN FOR RACEGoERS.
Failure to Make Application in Time
May Close Jockey Club Bar.

Ten keepers of places where intoxicants
were dispensed last year failed to make
the necessary deposits for renewal of their
licenses which means a decrease of ten in
the number of saloons as compared with
last year. There was a similar decrease
Tins year. which makes a total decrease of
twenty licensed saloons during the two
years. Probably the most important place
included in this list is the Washington
Jockey Club. The failure of the club to
AXE the necessary deposit was merely an
oversight. however. but 1t may result In it's
failure to supply liquid refreshments to its
patrons at the fall meeting at Benning,
which opens in about ten days. The club
has renewed its application and made the
necessary deposit. Under the law, how
ever, the application. II is stated, must be
considered In the order in which it was
filed, and this will probably mean that the
case will not be reached until long after the
close of the meeting which is so soon to
begin.
The section governing the manner in
which the excise board shall act upon ap-
plications reads: That every person apply
ing for license to sell intoxicating liquors
On said District shall file with the said
board petition Sfor such license and such
petition shall be considered and acted on
by the board in the order in which such
petition Is filed and numbered"
All applications are referred to the police
for investigation and report, and as a rule
at the beginning of the license year, when
there is so much business before the board.
the work Is not taken up until early in De-
Cember. Should the application of the
jockey club await it's turn it will not be
reached until long after the finish of the
fall meeting. Because of the oversight 1t
to the application. the same as If liquor had
never been sold on the premises.

NUMBER OF PARTIES INTEREST
ED IN WILL CONTEST.
Effort to Have Devise Made by Adj
miral Powell Declared Void
Universities Defendants.

Brook p Taylor and about forty other
compliments this afternoon instituted pro-
ceedings in equity in the District Supreme
Court against the Columbian University
and the Johns Hopkins University" the
court being asked to decree a certain de-
wise void and to direct an accounting re-
garding the property affected
1t is explained that Admiral Levin NJ.
Powell United States navy, who died jan
uray 10, 1885. left surviving him no child or
descendant. no brothers or sisters and no
descendant from any such brother or sister;
no father, no mother, nor grandfather.
By his will Admiral Powell expressed a
desire to establish in the Columbian Uni
versty "a means for the education of such
young men as may be willing to profit
therefrom in the branches of education best
fitted to prepare them for officers of the
line in the navy Of the United States, or
for the places of mates or captains i'm the
merchant marine service of the United
States" To that end Admiral Powell de-
vised to Columbian University premises
1907 / street this city, In trust, to create
an endowment, to be known as the Admiral
Powell endowment 1t was added that
should Columbian University at any time
find it impossible to carry into effect the
trust, then the property was devised to
Johns Hopkins University for the same pur-
pose.
The complainauts as descendants of Adj
miral Powells grandfather on the paternal
side. charge that by reason of the in
definiteness of the purposes of the intended
trust and the hopeless uncertainty of the
possible beneficiaries. who may desire to
take advantage of said endowment" the
devise and the trust sought to have been
created hereunder is wholly void and of no
effect
1t Is claimed by the compliments that
they are. as the next of kin and only heirs
at law of Admiral Powell lawfully entitled
and should be decreed to be the owners OF
the property in question, and to all the
rents. issues and profits collected therefrom
by the Columbian University, together with
legal interest thereon.
Attorneys Norton and Boothe and Henry
E. Davis appear for the complainants.

COURT OF APPEALS
OPINIONS HANDED DOWN IN
LOCAL CASES.
Police Court Affirmed in Case of
Wigand Against District
Other Decisions.

The Court of Appeals. by opinion writ
ten by Mr.. Chief Justice Alvey, has affirmed
the Judgment Of the Police Court in the
ca Sc of Frank Weigand against the District
OF Columbia. Wegand was convicted in
the Police Court of selling milk which con-
tanned less than 3ia per cent of butter
fat. contrary to and in violation of the act
of February II. 1898. Weigand took the
case to the Court of Appeals on the ground
that the Police Court judge had erred in a
humber of rulings. The Appellate Court
however found no error.
In the case of the Guilford Granite Com
pany and the Fidelity and Deposit Com
p;.ny of Maryland appellants against the
Harrison Granite Company the Court of
Appeals. by opinion written by Mr.. JUS
tice Shepard. has affirmed the Judgment of
the lower court as it relates to the Guilford
Granite Company, but the Judgment against
the Fidelity and Deposit Company of Mary
land is reversed and the cause remanded
for another trial. ..-
The Court of Appeals among other
things. holds that section l of the act of
1887 defining the jurisdiction of those
courts in districts within the several states
not intended to apply in the District
of Columbia In this case Chief Justice
Alvey has filed statement. He explains
that he Concurs in the judgments that have
been directed to be entered on the APP
peals but in so doing he does not desire
il to be understood that he entertains the
opinion that foreign corporation, not be-
ing a citizen ar an inhabitant of the state
by which 1t was Incorporated. within the
meaning of the Constitution of the United
States. bring and maintain suit in
this jurisdiction against another foreign
corporation defendant.
The judgment of the lower court has been
affirmed by the Court of Appeals. in an
opinion written by Mr. Justice Shepard, in
the case of the Purity Ice Company, appel
liant, against the Hawley Down Draft Fur
mace Company of Maryland, for the use of
Wick. Whiting & Co. lesSees of the Hawley
company The action begun by the
Hawley company against the Purity Ice
Company to recover 500. the amount OF
certain installments due upon contract.
In the case of Powhatan W. Robertson,
agent. appellant against Leonidas b.
Sutherland the Court of Appeals, by
opinion written by Mr.. Justice Shepard.
has dismissed the appeal. Robertson sued
Switzerland in justice of the peace court
upon a lease and obtained a writ of at
tachment. The defendant moved to quash
the writ because no sufficient ground for
the attachment had been stated. The at
tachment was dSn Used, and the District
Supreme Court, on appeal sustained the
action of the justice of the peace in dis
missing 1t.
The matter was then taken to the Court
of Appeal
Without -.timating any opinion upon the
question whether the order of the justice
of the peace quashing the attachment
an appealable one, the conclusion of the
Court of Appeals was the appeal must be
dismissed.

THE FIRST SNOW FALL.
The Furry Lasted About an Hour in
Fits and Starts.

According to the old adage all the snow
storms that visit Washington during the
coming winter will come from the north
west. The first fall of snow of the season
occurred this morning about 10 o'clock. and
this came from the northwest. The old
saw proclaims that all the future snow
storms of season will come from the di-
riction from which the first snow came.
q. E. D.
The snow that fell in the District was not
very noticeable to persons within doors.
The furry started about 10 O'Clock. and
continued in fits and starts until after IL
o'clock. 1t was never severe enough to at
tract much attention. but Ii was snow and
it was welcomed as sign of Seasonable
weather. The man who runs the tempera-
ture and other natural phenomena at the
weather bureau stated this afternoon that
the snow fall was caused by falling tenn
perature. The thermometer fell twenty de-
grees between shutdown yesterday and sun
rise this morning, ana it maintained COM
paratively low temperature all the morn
ing. 1t was slightly warmer at noon than
at 8 O'Clock. and the bureau promises 1t
will get warner this afternoon. Tonight,
II is predicted. will be cooler than last
night, and it will be cooler tomorrow morn
ing than ii was this morning. Then the
temperature will begin to moderate and
warmer weather will follow.
