THE CALL HAS BEEN ISSUED
Plans On Foot For a Rousing Dem
ocratic State Convention
In Baltimore.

The call for the coming state con-
yention of the democratic delegates
from all of the counties of the state
was issued by Chairman Murray Van
diver. of the Democratic State Gen.
tral Committee yesterday. The gath
ering of the clans TO name the tickets
plan the campaign and boost the Con-
stitutional amendment will take place
at Ford's Opera House in Baltimore at
noon on Thursday, September 2S.
Considerable local interest centers
in the convention on account of the
split in the Anne Arundel ranks of
the party and the twin primaries, con-
yentions and tickets in the field, one
headed by DIR. George Wells and the
other supported by the Moss Bannon
faction of the party. The chances
now seem stronger than ever for the
seating of the Moss delegates from
this county over those elected by the
Wells convention.
The latter ignored the Constitution
al Amendment, which is to play an
important part in the state convention
proceedings, while the Moss wing of
the party pledged its hearty support
for the measure. This action OF the
latter faction will give them addition
al favor in the eyes of the state con-
yention, when the two delegations
make their appeal for the representa-
tion of Anne Arundel That the
amendment will be endorsed in as
strong terms as can be fashioned is GER
tain and the leaders do not anticipate
that there will be the slightest oppo-
sition to the measure.
Many counties are sending double
delegations of ten men with half vote
each instead of the five with a whole
vote and arrangements are on foot to
make the convention record breaker,
both in point of attendance and en-
thusiasm. The plans include the pos
sibility of the presence of a mum Der
of Democrats who have not usually
been at party gatherings of this kind.

is ACQUITTED OF THE CHARGE.
Mr.. Ellis Found Not Guilty Of
Cruelty To Dumb Ani-
mails Yesterday.

Mr.. John @. Ellis, local representa-.
tive of the Grand Union Tea Com
panv, was Yesterday afternoon acquit-
ted of the charge of cruelty to animals
by Justice Charles q. Feldmeyer- be-
fore whom he was given hearing
The case grew out of the fall of a
horse which Mr.. Ellis was driving on
Prince George street while delivering
some goods last week AT the hearing
yesterday the alleged cruelty to the
animal was disproven and the exoner-
alton of Mr. Ellis was complete. 1t
was shown from the testimony of the
prosecuting witnesses that the condi-
tion of the animal had excited con5id-
erable sympathy and the action had
been rather hastv.
Mr.. Winson G. Gott, attorney for
Mr.. Ellis, produced number Of wit
nesses who testified to the excellent
general character of his client and to
his humane treatment of animals
which he had had in his care. Among
these were a number of prominent
liverymen and blacksmiths, including
Messrs. Fred Shaw, r. q. CLANCY
and Edward Weiss. The condition of
the animal in question was stated to
have been due TO age.
There was no question in the mind
of the justice as to the decision in the
case, as he discharged the gentleman
Immediately and with perfectly clean
record. The prosecution, prior to the
hearing, expressed a willingness tc
dismiss the charge, as investigation
since the complaint had been brought
showed that there we're no. grounds
for the case against Mr.. Ellis.

THEY HAD A WARM TIME.
Havre de Grace Booze Made The
Annapolis Excursionists
Very Scrappy.
SCORES OF THEM LOCKED IN
VESSELS HOLD.
Officers Brooks And Owens Had a
Busy Time Both Going
And Coming.

Squire Feldmeyer's Office saw its
busy time today, and for about two
hours His Honor was kept hustling 20
dispose of the cases OF a numberaf the
colored excursionist's 1878 of whom
left this city Yesterday for the all day
outing to Havre de Grace aboard the
steamer Louise.
The Tolchester Company vessel had
hardly gotten out Of the harbor when
trouble began 70 brew. and Patrolmen
William Brooks and Samnel Owens
had their hands full preventing scraps
during the trip 20 Havre De Grace.
Things warmed up, however. 20 an
even hotter pitch after the crowd had
been liberated in Harvo de Grace for
few hours. which time many Of them
spent in an apparent attempt 60 san.
pie the goods Of every saloon in the
town.
On the return trip the fun began
and so large was the crowd and 50
great was the desire Of some Of the coll
orsd folks 60 chew each other and wal
low in gore, that the police and crew
of the vessel took no chances and at
the first signs Of grumbling OF scrap
hustled tho malcontents 90 the strong
box below decks. These were how
ever, not all kept in close confinement,
but were merely locked up for an
hour or so until the fire water had
worked off some of its effects and
their heads were cooler It is said,
however, that at one time there we're
fully 80 of the colored people locked
MP in the hold of the Louise.
Some drew razors OF pistols. while
others simply used the weapons God
gave them. When Annapolis was
reached tie officers who had been dep
utlsed to go along, were met and as
sisted at the Prince George street
wharf by others of the force. About
ten of the most disorderly of the pris-
oners were locked in the Annapolis
stationhouse over night, and some Of
these were brought before Justice
Feldmeyer this morning. Some were
sent ''up' for a time, others will
await the action of the grand jury.
while others were able to pay their
fines and were released.
Newton Pinkney. charged with an
assault upon Lewis Davis, was found
guilty. He could not pay his fine and
costs amountingsto "a and was, there
fore, committed to the county jail
for 80 days.
William A. Wright was charged
with carrying concealed weapons and
the charge was adjudged as proven.
Willie was, therefore, put away in
the custody of Sheriff Hardy and War
den Thomas TO await the action of the
grand jury.
Aaron Brice was plain drunk and
disorderly character. but succeeded in
raising $4. % to pay his fine and was
released.
Maggie Jones, accused of disoderly
conduct. was acquitted and dismissed
from custody.
The Squire's Office during the lengthy
trial of the cases was sight to be-
hold, the colored witnesses being pack
ed in like sardines, while for hours
the stone coping and curbstone sur
rounding the Executive Mansion di-
rectly across the way, was packed with
friends and foes of the prisoners. The
excursion, taken as O whole, broke
the record in more ways than in point
of numbers.

Are Still Missing.

The three young men (and the dog)
whose non appearance on schedule
time at Captain Burtis' wharf was
told of in yestreday's Capital, have
not yet been located nor has anything
been heard from them. Captain Bur
tis, accompanied by one of his sons,
went out on a search for the three
young campers and his cat boat. the
Harry, yesterday afternoon. The cap
tain went clear to the head of the
Severn river, but was not successful
in seeing or hearing anything of either
the young men or the boat.
1t was growing dark before the head
of the river was reached and this may
be responsible for the failure to locate
them If they are anywhere in that
neighborhood, but it is feared that
the young fellows may have met with
an accident. Another search will pos
sibIy be made tomorrow, and captains
of the sand feet plying between here
and Indian Landing have been asked
to look out for signs of the missing
campers.

The Harvest Moon.

September is the month of the har-
vest through large areas of the globe.
In Switzerland it is called Herbst-
monat harvest month. 1t is the
month of the harvest moon, which is
now in its beauty. The harvest moon
is the full moon nearest the autumnal
equinox (September 2l) and it is SO
called because it enables farmers to
proIong the days work during the
autumnal harvest. In England and
northern Europe the harvest moon
rises near sunset several evenings sue
cessively, but this phenomenon is
less marked in the United States bo-
cause of the lower latitude. Tie re-
currence of what was called an equi-
noctial storm at or about the time the
sun crosses the equator, has ceased tc
be { if in fact it ever was) a thing 70
be depended on. The harvest moon is
foil on the 18th of this month, next
Wednesday.

PASSING OF THE OLD "pHLox'
She Is Lying On Maryland Shore
Opposite Alexandria.

The old naval steamer Phlox is lying
on the Maryland shore opposite Alex
andria, Va, and will soon be a thing of
he past. Once handsome and swift
passenger steamer, a model of beauty
in her day, her days of usefulness are
past, and she is being burned in order
to obtain the metal that holds her
frame together.
The Phlox was formerly in service
as a tender to the Naval A Academy,
and ran between Annapolis and Balti-
more for many years. On the building
of the Annapolis & Baltimore Short
Line railway to Baltimore the use of
the steamer was abandoned, and she
was converted into living quarters for
the marines who we're stationed at the
Academy. About two years ago she
was sold at public auction, and an
Alexandria junk dealer became her
purchaser.
The Phlox was taken to Alexandria
and stripped of her engine, boiler and
ANYTHING of value, leaving the bare
hull, which. il was thought could be
converted into a barge. This idea
was finally abandoned, and the last
act in the history Of the once fine old
steamer is now being enacted. We'd
nesday she was satuRted with oil and
the match applied. She was burning
brightly Wednesday night, but 1t will
require several days to reduce the old
craft to ashes. Then the metal, the
greater part of which is copper, will
be scraped out and will again find its
way into the melting pot.
The Phlox for many years was a IA
miIiar staampr ahout Anuan0lis and
the Naval Academy. The late Captain
Benjamin Perry was her pilot and
captain and ne and the Phlox were
closely identified with the Naval Acad-
envy for many years. The passing OF
the old steamer recalls many reminis-
cences.
