House, which is to be occupied by
Lieutenant Greenslade, was built by
John Callahan, Register of the Land
Office. 1t is one of the oldest houses
in the city.

ARE ON THE ROAD AGAIN.
The Bradford Stock Company
Leaves Town.

BY mutual agreement the Bradford
Stock Company, that played nc the
Colonial Theatre last night, left this
morning aud are on the road again.
Although the company had started in
for a week S performance, they were
persuaded by Manager Hollebaugh to
cancel their engagement and left town.
The company was not what it was
represented 10 be and Manager Holle-
baugh had been misinformed as to the
capabilities of the performers 1t is
the intention and purpose of Manager
Hollebaugh to run only first class
shows at the Colonial Theatre and he
desires TO keep up the standard OF the
plays presented at the local play
house. To this end he Cancelled the
engagement of the Bradford Stock
Company and shipped them today.
The company was playing last night
under difficulties, however. Miss
Bradford, the leading woman, had re-
ceived telegram from Philadelphia
just before going on the stage that her
mother was dying and that If she
and her father. also in the show, want
ed to see the dying mother and wife,
they must come at once.
The telegram came from the Ill
woman 5 son, who was at her bedside.
The daughter was almost Frustrated
during the performance and could
scarcely hold out. The father was
also under a terrible strain. Both
went direct TO Philadelphia today.
Although large number of tickets
had been sold for tonight's perfor.
nance. the money has been refunded
and there will be no performance to
night nor the rest of the week.

Complimented Locals

The Independent Fire Company No.
of this city was visited recently by
Mr.. William Kimball, of No. 10 En-
gine Company of Baltimore, who is a
relative of City Commissioner Will
lam II. Vansant. Mr. Kimball, who
stands high in the Baltimore fire fight

spoke most highly of the local fire de-
partment, and referred to the good
work done by it in the great conhagra-
tion Of last year in the Monumental
City.
Mr.. Kiinball was shown over the
quarters of the Independent Company
on Gloucester street by Foreman Quaid
and Engineer Farrell, both of whom
he complimented upon the condition
of their departments. AS said before
he is well versed in all departments
of fire company and was able to
make a number of valuable sugges-

1T MAY YET Be REMOVED.
Difficulties May Cause Loss of The
Experiment Station.

1t is understood from excellent au-
tEority, which while not official, can
not be doubted, that there is reason to
believe that the Naval Experiment
station proposed to be erected across
the Severn from the Academy near
the site of Old Fort Madison. may be
removed to some other naval station
than the Naval Academy. In fact, il
is said that the plan of erecting the
station at some other place than An
napolis is being actively discussed at
the Navy Department, which has al
most reached n decision 10 not to
erect the proposed structure here.
1t is understood that the cause lead
ing to this condition of affairs is due
co some technioality as TO the deed
conveying the property for the build
ing 10 the government. The officers
in charge of the work at this place and
their corps of assistants have been
engaged upon the plans and speciiica-
tions for over eighteen months, but SO
far no actual work on the erection of
the structure has been done. The on.
ly work so far touched outside of the
plans ana specifications is the test
boreings for a foundation, which were
completed some months ago. Since
then nothing at all has been done, SO
it is said.
1t has been suggested that some steps
be taken by the Maryland authorities
through their representative in Con
gress TO try and hasten the settlement
of the property deed tangle, lest this
new plant be lost to Annapolis ana the
Academy. The structure itself will,
it is understood, cost in the neighbor-
hood of $400. 600, and when completed
would furnish steady enjoyment for
about $50 men, and should it be erect
ed, there would possibly be built near
by settlement of quarters for the
naval officers in charge and the work
men. Should the present idea of the
abandonment of the station for this
neighborhood be carried out, the loss
to Annapolis and the Naval Academy
would be not by any means small.

Habeas Corpus Failed.

An effort was made yesterday in the
Circuit Court for Anne Arundel coun-
ty to have Newton Pinkney, colored,
released from the county Jail on ha-
beas corpus proceedings through his
attorney, Jerry l.. Smith. The action
was brought on the ground that the
commitment signed by Justice Field
meyer consigning Pinkney TO the jail
was defective, but the court ruled
otherwise, and the colored man was
remanded to gthe care of the Sheriff
and Warden TO serve his term With
additional costs. Pinkney was one
of the colored men arrested for Great

cursion from this city to Hayre de
