been found impossible. however, and IN
consequence they must regulate their
work according to the conditions.
Small Boy Takes a Hand.
Still another phase OF the nuisance
remains that arouses indignation to even
a greater degree. The pile OF leaves is
frequently fred by small boys and a
call for the fire engines is usually the
sequel. In the past summer the de-
partment has been summoned to the
scene on several occasions. and thus
another burden has been added TO The
unfortunate residents.
The feeling of Indignation has spread to
such an extent that another petition will
be formulated for presentation to the
Commissioners. The annoyance has been
found simply unbearabIe, and those who
are compelled 10 submit to soothing an
swers of the local authorities and yet
obtain no results. have expressed the
opinion that another appeal ought TO be
made
Unfulfilled Promises.
With a view of gaining relief the prop
erty holders in that section OF the city
framed petition some time ago. and
presented it TO the Commissioners.
Promises were given that the nuisance
would be stopped. but no action what
ever has been taken. The rubbish is
still burned with regularity. and the
residents OF the neighborhood are look
ing forward with apprehension to the
burning Of fallen leaves in the next
month or more
The ncighborhnoG has been tEus an
noyed for over ten years, begin
ming in the early summer and not end
ing until late in the autumn. The prop
erty holders are now specializing as to
whether another appeal will have the
desired effect.

War Believed Imminent.

CONSTANTINOPLE. Sept SIT Is
admitted here that the feeling Of op-
timism which has pervaded official cir
cles since the outbreak OF the insurrec-
tion in Macedonia, has passed, and il is
believed that war is imminent. All of
fetal communications TO the powers are
so framed as to intimate that Bulgaria
must be punished for her part In the in
surrection.
The Orthodox Greeks in the disturbed
districts continue 10 call for protection
from the Porte.
The demand for officers and gendarm-
erie continues heavy and as a result
seventy-six young officers who had not
completed their course have been sent

CoNSTANTINoPLE. Sept. S.-A con

disturbance was due TO the arrival at
Beirut OF the American squadron. the
Christians wishing 10 force the landing

SOFIA. Sept S.-Despite the inclina-

intervention by the powers will prevent
a general war between Bulgaria and
Turkey before October II is also possi-
bic that Servia will be drawn into the

Turks have temporarily checked the ris-
ing in the immediate vicinity OF Mon

Service.
George w. Beavers Sur
renders in New York.
Gives Bond of $4,000
to Appear for Trial.

The Federal grand jury at Ia:Io today
returned seven indictments in the POST
office cases.
United States District Attorney Beach
requested Justice Gould, to whom the
grand jury reported, to withhold the in
dictments from the record.
Justice Gould granted the request.
When previous indictments have been
reported they have been given i'm
mediately to the press, and this has
caused some trouble to the Government
in serving warrants on the indicted
parties
1t is possible the substance of today's
indictments will not be made public
until tomorrow.
Mr.. Beach said he thought II advisable
not to make public the names OF the
persons indicted until after they have
been arrested
The seven indictments are known to
be against SIX persons. there being two
separate oTenses charged against one-of
them
Soon to Be Disclosed.
II will be but short time. however,
before the names of these, persons viii
be made public, as District Attorney
Beach. Immediately after the grand jury
reported. took steps to have them
apprehended.
As these indictments have been for
malIy returned the arrests will be made
on bench warrants. which will be issued
against such Of the accused as live in
Washington by one Of the District
courts. The accused will be brought re-
fore the judge who issued the warrant.
arraigned. and given opportunity to fur
be necessary.
1t is anticipated. therefore. that the
embarrassment to which the law off,
GERS of the Government have been put
in the Beavers case may De altogether
avoided and the accused be taken INTO
custody without a disclosure of the Gov
ernment's case.
May Live in Washington.
While all the indictments are said 10
be against persons connected with the
Postoffice Department. Mr.. Beach de-
clined TO say whether any of them are
residents of Washington.
1t was intimated. however. that there
may be some arrests made this after
noon.
From this suggestion it is believed
some of the persons indicted are now in
this jurisdiction
Some OF the persons indicted today are
those against whom indictments have
already been returned in connection
with the Postof1ce scandals Il is not
expected that they will be again arrest
ed or required again to give bond.
Others against whom indictments were
returned. it is believed, are beyond this

The Washington times., 1903-09-08

Intense indignation has been aroused
among the residents in the neighbor
hood of Ninth and X Streets northeast
by the repeated refusal of the District
authorities 10 heed the frequent pro-
tests against the burning OF trees. green
leaves and other rubbish on the corner
OF those thorOughfares.
About twice week the neighborhood
is submerged under dense volumes OF
smoke. surrounding property is put in
danger of fire. and a general closing
of windows and doors Is so frequent an
occurrence that the occupants OF nearby
houses look for it as regular matter
of routine.
For several years the District has used
the vacant lot at the northeast corner
of Ninth and X Streets as a dumping
ground for such rubbish as fallen trees
and loads of leaves gathered in differen.
parts of the city The rubbish is piled
high along the edge of the lot, and on
an average of twice a week the entire
collection is burned with the aid of coal
