Assaulted an Officer.

Little, but OH my, was the comment
of Officer Hesse of the fifth precinct sta
ton about Ella Collins. colored, whom he
placed under arrest yesterday for assault
To get the little woman to the box. where
she could be placed in the station patrol
wagon, he had to use all of his wits and
means OF defense. When Officer Hesse in
formed Ella that she would have to 60 to
the station house she decided at once not
to go. Her former trips were not remem-
bered as being pleasant, and that dislike
was prominent In her feelings when she
was met by Officer Hesse.
Ella Is artist in the use of her fists
and she practiced all her arts when arrest
ed. AS result she landed many blows
on the officers breast and face For the
four blocks which she had to be taken to
the box she was resisting the journey with
that the little woman was compelled to
proceed.
She was arraigned in the Police Court
this morning on the charge of assauting
the officer. The physical persuasion she
used on the officer In trying to get away
was explained to the court.
NO, sir, l didn't resist the officer" said
Ella when she took the stand.
Il suppose You went quietly" said Judge
ONeal.
Yes, sir"
For the next sixty days Ella will have a
chance to practice her physical arts on the
bars under Warden Harris direction.

NAVY YARD POWER PLANT.
Installation May Be Completed With
Babcock & Wilcox Boilers.

Secretary Benaparte has decided that the
installation of boilers in the power plant
at the Washington navy yard may be COM
pleted with Babcock & Wilcox boilers. One
half of the installation has been completed
and arrangements are being made for the
purchase of the third fourth of the whole
number of boilers to be required Other
boiler manufacturers than the firm referred
to objected that successive sections of the
installation should be thown open to COM
petition as they were needed and that the
original choice of Babcock e. Wilcox boil
ers should not stand throughout the entire
plant.
The authorities at the yard pointed out
that when the installation was begun ten
ders were asked from different boiler manu-
facturers and that the figures submitted by
more sa satisfactory than those of the manu-
facturers now protesting. 1t was also point
ed out that very considerable changes would
have to be made in the construction of the
power building to accommodate new type
of boilers and that there was a serious
question If wastes in operation would not
occur.
Secretary Bonaparte took the whole ques-
ton under Amusement and has decided that,
while 1t is the policy of the department to
afford every opportunity for competition in
bidding on new work, when it appears that
a purchase is to be used in connection with
articles of satisfactory character previously
purchased and where uniformity would be
an advantage, requistion for articles of
similar character may be made. In the
case of the boilers referred to, he holds
that an opportunity for competition was
afforded in the first instance and that no

type of boiler originally selected.

DIED ON WAY TO HOSPITAL.
Baby Succumbs to Attack of Whoop-
ing Cough.


Carrying the dead body of an infant in
her arms, Annie Staten, colored, living at
1866 Valley street, entered the eighth pre-
cinct police station this morning about &
O clock and told g. sad story of the child s
death. The child was two years old and
had suffered from an attack of the whoop-
ing cough. One of the physicians to the
poor had been called to the house of Mrs.
Staten and had given a certificate which
entitled the patient to admission to the
Children's Hospital. All night long the
mother looked after the sick boy, whose
suffering was made greater by the excess
sive heat, and shortly after 5 o'clock this
morning she left her home in Georgetown
and started to go to the hospital. On her
way the child died, and she was then d.
rected to the police station. Her story was
heard by the men who were on duty in the
station and the latter took charge Of the
body. Mrs. Staten told the police that she
was too poor to bury the body, and left
the remains with them to be turned over to
the superintendent of the morgue. The wo-
man looked upon the face of her child for
the last time and went away crying.
"If l only had money enough to give my
baby Christian burial" she sobbed; but
l haven't, and the District will have to
bury him."
Later in the morning the wagon from
the morgue appeared at the station and the
body was removed to the churchylike struc-
ture on the river front. The body was eX-
anlined and as death had occurred from
natural causes the coroner deemed an in
quest unnecessary. This afternoon or to-
morrow the body will find a resting place
in potterS field.

Principal SWartzell's Case.
To the Editor of The Star:

To the Editor OF The Star:
May l express my great qualification at
the position of The Star in its several edt-
torials upon the case of the board of edu-
cation and Prof Swartzel. From his boy
hood l have known him, and am not sur
prised that the board of education after IN
vestigation found In him no fault at all
Their resolutions give him a clean bill OF
health. His thorough conscientlousness
his scholarship. his ability to impart knowl-
edge and his administration Of the Eastern
High School. bringing II to a first place.
cannot be too highly commended. Had
there been vacancy in the principalship
of the Central. Prof Swartzell would have
honored the wisdom of the board in his pro-
motion. There is no such vacancy and the
logic of justice appears to call for recon-
sideration that will simply give to Prof.
Swartzell the legal and moral support of
the board of education and OF Superinten-
dent Stuart. The square DEAL demands
this, and the surrender of lawfully con-
stituted right to clamor and discomfort
means anarchism. Truth may be on the
scaffold today, but tomorrow that scaffold
rules the world. God is in the shadow.
