LONG TERM IN JAIL.
Addison D. Holmes Punished for Dis
orderly Conduct and Making Threats.

Addison D. Holmes Punished for Dis
orderly Conduct and Making Threats.
One year in Jail and $500 fine or six
months additional was the sentence which
was imposed in the Police Court today by
Judge Mullowny on Addison D. Holmes,
the cOlored man who threatened his wife
with revolver and was the cause of a
great deal of disorder in the vicinity of 18th
and o streets about / o'clock yesterday af-
ternoon.
You are lucky man." Judge Mullowny
told him, in imposing the sentence. BY
chance you are not here for homicide or
murder, but for assault and carrying con-
cealed weapons
Holmes had three charges against him,
one for assaulting Mary Holmes, his wife;
another for assaulting his sister-in-law,
Nellie Butler. and the third for carrying a
concealed weapon; The sentences were inn
posed on two of the charges, the one Of as
sault- on Nellie Butler being dismissed.
Mrs. Holmes testified that she was stand
ing at the window of her home, 1903 18th
street northwest, and saw her husband ap-
preaching the house. When he saw her,
she stated, he pointed a revolver at her but
she jumped back into the room. She locked
the door and pushed the bed against 1t to
prevent him from getting to her. and heard
threats against he- life and heard him fire a
shot.
The testimony showed that the weapon
was a new one and that, armed with 1t, he
went in search Of his brother-in-law and
made threats against him. Not finding him,
he rushed around the corner to his- home
where the incident related by the wife oc-
Cured.
Policeman Wech Of the third precinct
went to the house and after chase through
an alley to Church street Holmes was cap
tured and the revolver. with one cartridge
missing. was found on him.
Holmes maintained to his honor that he
was merely looking at the gun when It
went off accidentally, in his home, and de-
MED that he tried or desired to do his wife
any injury.

street northeast. and James L johnson, 40

Health Office inspectors are making a
thorough investigation of all the barber
shops in the city, and whenever the new
regulations are not carried out to the let

BELIEVE he. Is INNOCENT.
Washington Friends Of DR.. Hat De-
fend His Reputation.

eff the crime of murder was committed
by Dr. Hau, the only reason that can be
assigned is that he suddenly became In
sane. The DIR. Hau we knew in Washing
ton, during his six or seven years OF resi-
dence here. was not the character of man
who would descend to such deed"
This is the opinion expressed over and
over again by all Of the friends in this city
of DIR. Carl Hau. who Is under arrest In
London on charges filed by the German au-
thorities. He is wanted in connection with
the murder, November 8. of Frau Molitor,
his mother law. in Baden-Baden.
No word either directly or indirectly, has
been received in Washington from DR.. Hau
and the belief expressed is that feeling HIM
self entirely innocent he does not choose to
dignity the murder charge by giving 1t no
tice in a cablegram to his friends ana asso-
GATES in the capital. The report that Mrs:
Hau, in the Hotel Cecil, London, has denied
herself to all callers, and that she even
refuses to receive messages. Is taken as
explaining her failure to answer two cable
grams sent to her since the first account
Of her husbands arrest reached this coun--
try.
Speaking of Professor Hau's connection
with the faculty of George Washington
University today. Mr.. Charles iNeedham.
president of that institution. declared that
he had always found Hau to be straight.
forward in dealings with his fellow-man.
He was a man of splendid attainments,'
said DR.. Needham, land, while he never
spoke of his personal affairs, he gave every
evidence of being possessed OF independent
means, because one of his first acts upon
being appointed an instructor In the uni
versity was to turn over his salary as in
structor in Roman law to the institution
to pay fer two scholarships.
Dr. Needham has apartments at the High
lands where DR.. Hau also resided while
in this city, and he declared that DR.. Hau
and Mrs. Hau gave every indication OF
happy home relations, notwithstanding ru-
mors to the contrary. Other close friends
Of DIR. Hau have taken occasion to state
that the rumor concerning unhappy mari
tai relations had absolutely no foundation
in fact.

THE HARTMAN LINES
POSSIBLE INVESTIGATION BY
INTERSTATE COMMISSION.

A general investigation of what Is known
as The Hartman system of railroads, under
the authority conferred by law, is one of
the subjects that has been discussed by the
Interstate commerce commission. Because
Of the pressure Of work now before the
commission. and the great amount of labor
and time involved In such an undertaking,
the matter has thus far been considered
only in an informal and tentative way and
no final decision has been reached as to
when the proposed inquiry shall begin or
the methods to be followed in securing the
information desired. The propriety of an
investigation of the system has been talked
of by the members Of the commission for
some time. and that body, 1t Is said, really
stands committed to an inquiry.
I'VE have been informed" a member OF:
the commission said last night. that this
system in some Of its features is not unlike
the Northern Securities Company, which
was dissolved through the interpretation of
the Attorney General Of the United States"
Any steps which may be taken by the
commission along the lines referred to will
be. 1t is said, in accordance with the gen.
eral powers of the commission conferred by
law and not because of any Immediate spe-
cific complaint Of violation Of the statutes
In January. II time permits, the commission
will take up the complaint of the municipal
ity OF Spokane against the Northern Pacific,
the Great NOrtnern, the Cnicago, Burning
ton and Quincy, the Union Pacific and the
Oregon Short Lines railroads, involving al
legged determinations in charging a higher
rate for a shorter than for a longer haul.
This complaint was the first filed with the
commission under the amended interstate
commerce act. 1t Is regarded as of consid-
cradle Importance. its disposition will
logically have bearing on the whole ques-
ton of transportation in the west from the
Canadian border to Mexico and Chicago and
st. Louis to the Pacific coast. 1t is also
of Importance with the proposed investiga-
ton Of the Hartman system. whose terri
tory and connecting lines cover large por-
ton of the west.
