REPLACING AWNING.
Protest Filed With District Commits
sioners Today.

committee of Georgetown merchants
whose places of business are on M street
between Both and 31st streets called on
the District Commissioners today and re-
quested that they be not compelled to re-
move their awning poles and substitute
for them the new patented swinging
awning, which is worked without poles
The policy of the Commissioners as stat
ed by Col Biddle, is to have the old-style
awning replaced by the new whenever it
becomes necessary to have the old avn
ings moved or repaired
In such cases the Commissioners DENY
a permit for the repair of the old awning
and compel the merchant to supply HIM
self with d new style protection against
the sun The result, says Col. Biddle, is
uniform beauty. But this reform is not
carried to the extent that merchants
having the old poles and not having to
move or repair them are compelled to
adopt the new style. 1t is only when re-
pairs are necessary that the change Is
ordered
Recently the Commissioners discovered
that the width of NJ street between Both
and 31st streets was foot more at one
end than at the other. Consequently the
pavement was made wider at one end of
the block, and the awning poles, which
had stood in their places for twenty-five
years, were left a foot inside the curb.
This is considered dangerous and n re-
moval of the poles was necessary. But
the engineer department demanded that
the merchants on the square affected buy
the new style awning. The merchants on
the other squares east and west are I'M
affected. This appealed to the merchants
between Both and 31st streets as being
unfair, and they appeared before the
Commissioners today, represented by At
torney Albert Sllers. 1t was argued for
them that either all merchants in all
parts of the city should be made to sub
stitute the new for the old or none should
be troubled. The charge of discrimination
was made in the most courteous manner.
and finally Commissioner mcfarland
stated the matter would be taken under
consideration. Either the rule followed
by the engineer department for several
years will have to be abolished or an ex-
ception made in this instance II the re-
quest of the merchants is to be complied
with. The committee included Messrs.
Charles Meuller, Charles j. Allen, Richard
Young and s. Guggenheim.

Participants Fined in the Police Court
This Morning.

The Police Court van, bringing the pris-
oners from the third precinct station house

scene of wild connection during the trip
Two of the prisoners got into discussion
and blows passed. Wien the end of the
trip came one of the passengers was found
10 have a bad black eye. showing the I'M
press of a fellow prisoners fist
There was a good load of prisoners from
the northwest section and among them
were George Washington and Archibald
Campbell They had not formally met be
fore, but the common fate made up for
the acquaintance. George Washington
started to tell the van full Of prisoners
story He was progressing well, when
Campbell interrupted.
Let me tell about this story" said Camp
bell, glancing around TO catch the atten-
ton of the other passengers
'Win you shut up" yelled back Wash
ington.
Campbell was not impressed with this
statement and continued to talk. Wash
ingtOn's ire was aroused and he decided TO
effectually put a stop to the interruption
Doubling up his fist, he drew back and let
fly. There was a chug and little yell
from Campbell. Washington was held in
his place by the other prisoners prevent
ing further blows.
When Campbell arrived at the Police
Court his eye was in terrible condition
The swelling was large and first-aid RENE
dies were applied to the eye to reduce the
suffering
The Incident created much talk among
the officials around the Police Court and
It furnished a subject for lively conversa-
ton.
Washington was arraigned in the Police
Court on a charge of disorderly conduct for
which he was arrested. Washington plead
ed guilty to the charge and when Officer
Lee explained that Washington had Gre
ated much disturbance and noise about 2
o'clock this morning on F street north

most gone" said Judge Kimbau Camn-
bell will be examined for his sanity
II was shown that Washington, did NO,
know the condition of Campbell and that he
was provoked before he hit Camrbeu For
this reason Officer Hooper did not swea
out any information for Washingto, ror

HIGH SCHOOL CAMP.
Great Activity Manifested in the
Proposition.


The stating of officers for the four com
panies of High School Cadets to go into
summer camp at Ocean City, N. j., was eff
fected by cadet officers Thursday night at
the home of C. o. Howard, commandart of
the camp. The appointment will be made
at meeting of officers to be held Saturday
evening at 455 G street northwest at 1880
pm
C. W. Talton, F. S. NARROW, H. II. War
ner and E. F. Leger are named for cap
taincies, but 1t is generally conjectured that
Fulton will be made colonel of the regi-
ment. There is much competition among
aspirants for commissioned officers posi-
lions In the High School Regiment next
year, as the summer camp is considered an
excellent practice ground. Already hum
bred and seventy cadets out of a maximum
two hundred have enlisted Capt. Ralph
Ourand and Captain Linthicum of the win
ming Eastern High School company are ex-
pected to enlist.
Commandant Howard will be at Ocean
City for the week end looking after details
of the camp. The Ocean City people have
already subscribed 81 600 $500 OF which has
been expended for tents and camp equip
ment. At the expense of the city telephone
and a special water main viii be laid to
camp, insurng plenty of pure water and the
city gas company has promised not to be
behind. Grading OF the site has been I'M
dertaken and completely sanitary camp
Is assured.
Capt Theo p. Heap, chairman of the
finance committee and member of the staff
representing the National Guard of the Dis
trict, has already as trustee for the cadet
camp deposited 500 with the Second Ma
tional Bank. The expense to each cadet
for railroad, IS, and IS week for the four
weeks will, II is predicted, be much reduced
by contributions to the camp fund by In
terested Washington citizens. A fund is be-
Ing raised to supply a band

ALLEGED EMBEZZLER
BELIEVED TO HAVE BEEN AR
RESTED IN QUEENSTOWN.

The local police have reason to believe
that DIR. Fl. F. Brooks who was principal
of the Uniontown, Pa, high schools, has
been arrested at Queenstown upon infor-
nation they furnished the Uniontown po-
lice authorities. The police say DIR. Brooks
Is wanted in Uniontown to answer charges
of embezzlement of about 81 coo, but, 1t is
stated the amount will probably reach
something like four times this sum- 1t is
alleged that there is woman In the case
and that II was for the purpose of squan-
dcring money upon her that he took the
public funds, Letters written by him, 1t
is alleged, contain admissions of guilt, and
a bill for a dress that fell into his wife's
hands gave the information that there was
woman in the case. This woman was in
Pittsburg. but another friend, Bessie Mont
gomery was found in this city in the dis
reputable section by Detectives Weldon and
Tyser, after it had been ascertaned from
the Uniontown officials that the doc
tor and Bessie had come here. She OBJ
jected to telling the detectives anything
about the doctor. but after being closely
questioned she became communicative and
told of his actions.
Doctors Alleged Statement.
In a letter written by the doctor he is al
legged to have made the statement that he
had lost money by signing a note for a
friend and had taken the public funds be-
cause of the financial troubles. His friends,
however, do not know of any such trans
action. Bessie Montgomery, as the young
woman was known gave the detectives the
information that the doctor was going to
Paraguay, South America, and had di
rected that she correspond with him until
such time as she might be able to join him
there. 1t is charged that he sailed on the
steamship Carpathia of the Cunard line for
Liverpool about ten days ago and that he
sailed under the name H b. Teller" De-
tectives from Uniontown went to New York
and investigated that end of the case. Upon
their return to Uniontown they made a re-
port of what they had learned, and a cable
was sent to the Scotland Yard detectives
asking that Teller be arrested upon his
arrival at Queenstown Late Tuesday night
a reply was received from the detectives
there saying they would make the arrest as
requested.
Detectives Weldon and Tyser learned that
Bessie Montgomery had stopped at 1929 ID
street while she was in this city and that
DR.. Brooks had visited her there shortly
before he left to go to New York He only
visited her here on the one occasion, it is
stated, and most of the night was spent rid
ing about the city in a cab. The woman,
1t Is stated. left this city shortly after the
detectives interviewed her.
