Opino, como usted, que, al pronun-
ciarse ell veredicto del Jurado, cesa ell
secreto de las composiciones, como ell
de los autores premiados, cuyos nom
bres circular va en- los peri6dicos; pero,
salvando ell mas Igero escr6pulo, con
fecha de hoy escribo mi buen amigo
y maestro don Manuel Fernandez Jun
cos, miembro del Jurado para ell tema
Romance, renunciando ell accesit que
bondadosamente Sc me concediera.
Como esta renuncia pudiera inter
pretarse de otro modo, yo lie ruego vi
yamente que haga constar en- LA DEMO
CRACIA, que reconozco & priori la Justi-
cia del Jurado y que soy yo ell primero
en- proclamar ell triunfo de los vencedo-
res.
Nj puede mi ingenio fulgurar como
ell de otros esclarecidos poetas, nj serfa
possible que, entire las aridas y continues
labores forenses que agotan mi espfritu,
produjera mas que effmeras llamas, en-
los espacios luminosos de la poesia.
Queda usted complacido yo muy
suyo cordial amigo y servidor,
JOSE DE DIEGO.

PROSECUTOR OBJECTS.
Mr.. Pugh to 60 to Court of Appeals on
Ruling

Prosecuting Attorney Pugh, in the Dis
trict branch of the Police Court this after
noon, objected to a ruling made by Judge
Kimball in the case of Michael P. Callag
han, a dairyman in business at Chevy
Chase, who was on trial before a jury on a
charge of violating the provisions of the
pure food law. 1t was alleged against the
defendant that one of his drivers recently
refused to sell small quantity Of milk
to an inspector of the health department.
claiming that he had no milk for sale. 1t
was contended by the defense that the
milk on the wagon was sour milk, which
had been collected from customers to take
out to Callaghan's farm for his hogs.
The court thereupon took the case from
the jury and dismissed the suit. Prose-
cutor Pugh objected to the action of Judge
Kimball and contended that it would be
possible for every milk dealer In the city
to refuse to sell milk to the health de-
partment's inspectors in the future.
Judge Kimball declined to. sustain the
objection, and the prosecuting attorney an
nounced his intention of applying to the
Court of Appeals for writ of error.

CHARGE OF MURDER.
Young Co1ored Woman Accused of
Killing Her Child.

Eva De Veal. young colored woman,
was sent to Jail this afternoon to be con-
fined until a complaint of murder against
her can be Investigated by the grand jury.
An inquest was held this morning at the
sixth precinct station, and the jury held
her responsible for the death of her child.
Nearly three weeks ago the woman gave
birth to a child. She left her room in a
house on Sth street northwest between r
and streets, and, it is charged, crushed
the skull of her infant and put its body in
closet in rear of house in Wynnes
alley.
The cries of the infant was followed by
the barking of dogs, and the woman was
seen by occupants of houses in the neigh
borhood returning home. Her arrest fol-
lowed and she admitted she was the
mother Of the child. She has since been
under treatment at Freedmen's Hospital.
Eva is the seventh prisoner in Jail charged
with murder.

OFFICIALS CRITICISED.
Care of Prisoners at Police Court and
Methods Employed,

Attorneys who visited the Police Court
yesterday afternoon during the hearing of
the case against Leopold j. Stern are Sc
we're in their criticism of the officials at the
court who are responsible for the trans
portation of prisoners to the jail and work
house. There were fourteen prisoners In
the cells at the court yesterday awaiting
to be sent to Jail before the Stern case was
called up. Instead of sending them down
to the two institutions they were kept in
the cells at the court until $50 o'clock to
await the adjournment of court, in order
that Stern could go back to Jail with them.
There are three vehicles provided for the
transportation of prisoners from court to
the jail and workhouse, two of them being
heavy closed wagons and the other light
vehicle.
1t is said the prisoners who were await
ing to go to the two institutions before the
Stern case was called should have been
sent down, and that the light wagon should
have been put in service to convey Stern
back to Jail after the adjournment of court.
The fourteen unfortunates, however, were
kept in the cells, it is charged, without
anything to eat all day, with the exception
of a cup of coffee and a sandwich, which
was given them when they arrived at court
at o'clock in the morning.

STREET INSPECTION.
Commissioners Go Over the Unimprov-
ed Thoroughfares.

Commissioners Mcfarland and West
made an inspection today of the unimprov-
ed streets and avenues which have been
recommended by the Engineer Commission
err for inclusion in the estimates for i'm
provement in the next fiscal year
Acting Engineer Commissioner Newcom-
err was indisposed and unable to CO. but
has been frequently over the streets and
avenues, and is of course entirely familiar
with them, since he has special charge of
streets, avenues and roads as assistant to
the Engineer Commissioner.
For years a schedule of streets and ave-
nues prepared by a former board of Com
missioners has been considered from year
to year by Congress and appropriations
have been gradually made for their i'm
provement. The last session of Congress
expressed a desire to have new schedule
made by the Commissioners after Pr
sonal inspection of the streets and avenues
where the necessity for Improvement is
considered most pressing, and directed that
the Commissioners should prepare a new
schedule, arranging the streets and avenues
in the order of their Importance from a
public point of view.
