A Serious Charge.

A serious charge was made out be- fore Justice Landrum this morning against collector for an installment furniture house named Williams. Yes terday, the affidavit alleges, Williams visited the home of a negro family in the western part of the city. and when a payment was not made the collector began to help himself to the goods which had been furnished the home by his house in spite of the protests of those in charge of the dwelling. 1t haSpened that the negroes were not so ignorant as the general run of those who have dealings with the install- ment houses, and they preferred charges against Williams in the May or's Court for cursing and disorderly conduct. Mayor Welles gave the young man stinging lecture on the serious ness of the offense and reminded him that he was placing himself liable to a very heavy fne. In addition to that humiliation. Williams was fined S5. This punishment was not satisfactory to the prosecution 1t seemed, and as soon as the city tribunal had adjourn ed, they went to tAe office of the jus tice and made out the county war rant.
 The negroes swore this morning that Williams had represented himself as a city detective, and If this Is proven 1t will go hard with him, as another prosecution may be instituted.

GnmbEers In Trouble.
 The police made themselves felt in the ranks of the keepers of club rooms last night when George S. Wells and George Jackson were taken in charge and affidavits made against them for violation of the law. This morning the two men pleaded guilty and were lined $15o each. This was readily paid.
 The continued war of the police on the keepers of gambling houses has served to create something of a havoc among that class of residents, and each of them are now nightly expect ing visit from the bluecoats. There is hardly a gambling house in the city but that has been raided within the past few weeks.

HOW He ATTAINED HIS RANK
At Close Of Spanish War President Nc
Kinley Had No Alter

Il do not believe that Cen. Leonard
Wood will ever become Chief OF star,
said member of the Cabinet to The
Times today
This has been the one great fear
that army officers have had-that Gen.
eral Wood would be placed in command
and remain there so long that scores
Of them would be deprived OF ever serv-
ing in the highest military capacity.
President Mckinley had little choice
with General Wood and his promotion.
He had either to make him brigadier
general, after serving as he did. or an
point him a second lieutenant There
was no other place for him. and had he
not been appointed he would have been
out Of the army. Personally. / do not
believe in making surgeon captain in
the army brigadier or a major gen
eral; but in this case there was no al
tentative
why has General Wood not been
called home. or requested to come home
TO face his accusers2''
Because he has not been accused of
anything like what has been given out
by witnesses. They have not testified
in the committee to what they have
in the corridors. Their case has been
FAR less sensational than the public has
