PIPE ORGAN PURCHASED.
Union M. E. Church Having One Put
in Place.

Union Methodist Episcopal Church, on
Goth street northwest, near Pennsylvania
avenue, of which the Rev. DR.. 8. Reese
Murray is the pastor, contracted some
months ago for the building of a new pipe
organ for the auditorium. The cases were
delivered last week, and since then work
has been going forward rapidly on the erec-
ton of the instrument.
AT the II o'clock service Sunday morning
next the organ will be used for the first
time, and Bishop Earl Cranston will preach
the sermon.
The organ is of quartered oak but as the
seatings in the church are dark the cabinet
work has been stained in harmony with
them.
1t is reported that the end of the confer
ence year finds the church in first-class
financial condition. About $1,000 will be
paid on missions and domestic benevo-
lences. The pastors salary was raised dur
ing the year beyond what has been paid
heretofore. 1t is claimed the congregation
never gave literally before to the con-
ference collections. The membership at
large signed petition to have DR.. Murray,
the pastor, returned by the conference,
which is to meet at Foundry Church next
Wednesday.

HOLDS TO FORMER OPINION.
Views of Commissioner West in Police
mans Case.


Commissioner West is not willing to grant
Private Joseph F. Hile of the police force
a hearing before the Commissioners on the
appeal filed on behalf of Hile by Attorney
Wilton J. Lambert. The police trial board
found Hile guilty of gross neglect of
duty" in that he allowed William P. Burge,
colored, arrested for alleged murder, to es-
cape from ward at the Homeopathic Hos
pital the night of February last. The
trial board. in note relative to the finding
declared that Officer Hile was not the only
one in fault, and the system in vogue for
OBTAINING prisoners at the hospital was
criticised. The board recommended that
Hile be fined SO and this was concurred in
by Major Sylvester.
Commissioner West, however, holds to the
opinion that the officers offense is one of
such seriousness as to demand his dismissal
from the force An appeal against this
maximum penalty recommended by Com
missioner West was filed with the Commits
sioners by Attorney Lambert. Mr. West,
after reading the appeal, holds to his for
mer opinion in the case, and makes the fol.
lowing recommendation:
In my opinion, no adequate reason is ad-
Vanced in this appeal for a hearing before
the Commissioners. l therefore move that
the request for hearing be denied The
fact is that Officer Hle was charged with
the custody of an alleged murderer and
that while charged with this custody he
allowed the prisoner to escape"
The other Commissioners have not acted
on the case.

Land Office Clerks Directed Anony-
naously to Report to the Secretary.

number Of clerks in the general land
office received shock this morning. from
which they were long time recovering.
Fifteen or twenty anonymous letters were
found by as many members Of the clerical
force, directing them to report at once to
the office of the Secretary of the Interior
and tell what they knew of several mat
tiers, which. 1t is said, were under investi-
CATION by the Secretary. The clerks who
received the missives were not pleased at
the receipt thereof; they scented trouble
and embarrassment and went to the office
of the Secretary with white faces and trem-
bling lips.
At Secretary Hitchcock's Office they were
met with cold courtesy. The Secretary
knew nothing of the letters and none of his
force knew anything of them. He did not
care to see the clerks from the land Office
unless they had official business with them
and they were all dismissed. The thing
was regarded as a joke by the Secretarys
force until the clerks began to come in
groups of two and three. And then the
thing passed the jocular stage and became
a serious annoyance.
The letters asked the clerks to relate
what they knew of the actions of the chief
clerk of the office, Mr. Macy, in connection
with the presentation of a wedding present
to the former chief clerk Of the Office, the
promotion of recently appointed clerks and
one of two other minor matters.
1t is announced that when the Secretary
wants to see clerks in the land office he
will call on them personally, and not
through unsigned communications.

Sandbar to Be Removed.

The wide sandbar across the mouth OF
Piscataway creek, in Maryland, just south
of Fort Washington, which has effectually
barred any but the lightest draft vessels
from entering the creek, is being removed
by the digging machine Of the Potomac
Dredging Company, and a channel seven
feet deep and fifty feet wide will be dug
befok the work is completed. The Poto-
mac company has been digging sand in
Piscataway for year or more, and owing
to the trouble had in getting the loaded
barges over the bar, the managers of the
company determined to dig a channel
through it for their own convenience.
River pilots state, that after the bar is
crossed there is channel in the creek ten
or twelve feet deep and running two miles
up to Pennington. 1t is understood that
as soon as the channel, Is completed a
small steamboat will be put on the route
between this city and Pennington.

Old Steamers Sold.

Stout were among a number of the old
steamers of the Clyde fleet which were
sold at Philadelphia a day or two ago, and
which, 1t is stated, will shortly disappear
from the marine register of the United
States. The ola Defiance is well known
here, and was the last of the Clyde line
steamers on the route between this city
and Alexandria and Philadelphia, and the
Stout was an occasional visitor here when
the Defiance was out of service. The De-
fiance made her last trip to this city about
five years ago, when the route was aban-
doned and the steamer withdrawn. She
landed at the pier now used by the steamer
River Queen, and made one round trip
each week.
