CHARGE DISMISSED.
BIT Court Criticised Act of Citizen
Who Was Under Chargas

In the course of the trial of the case OF
Montgomery Fenwick, charged with disor-
derby conduct in the Police Court today,
Judge Mullowny stated that it was not In
cumbent upon citizens to tell officers on
their beats what they should do, but that
the citizens should go to headquarters IL
they had any suggestions or complaints.
After hearing the testimony in the case
before him, which hinged partially on this
point, his honor dismissed the charge
against Fenwick
Policeman Harvey, who made the arrest,
stated that he was standing at the corner
of 9th and K streets southwest yesterday
when Fenwick walked out OF his house and
approached him.
Why don't you walk your beat, instead
of standing on this corner for fifty min
utes." said Fenwick to the officer. There
is a bill now up to increase your pay and
you continue to stand around. The force
will have to be doubled to properly police
the city
The officer testified that Fenwick used
some profanity in the course of these state
ments, but that was denied by the de-
PENDANT and his witnesses.
You had no business TO tell that officer
what to do or what he ought to do" said
Judge MulloWny. IF you want to COM
plain, go to police headquarters.

THE OLD SPANISH swINDLE.
Inquiries Made About Fortune Left
to a Beautiful Orphan.

Letters are reaching the War Department
almost daily asking for information about
Senior Pedro del Vale. Mariana Capdevila
and various other alleged fictitious names,
under which the old swindle. with a beauti-
ful Spanish orphan as the center, is being
worked from Barcelona, Spain.
From North Carolina, New York, Illinois
and many other states curious inquiries
about the swindle are received. On New
York man, who Is supposed to be getting
ready to contribute to the swfndlers sent
letter merely asking who the private
secretary of Gen. MaTtiez Campos was at
the time of the Cuban war. That hint was
sufficient to let the War Department into
the New Workers. secret, as other pros
pective victims forwarded literature and
letters to the department showing that the
chief swindler was posing as Pedro del
Vale, private secretary to Gen. Martinez
Campos.
The first letters to victims. as shown by
copies of the complete correspondence are
written by del Vale from Military Pris-
ons of Barcelona" The writer says his
dead wife was a relative of the victim to
be- who is aked to become guardian OF a
sequent letters are written by an alleged
priest, Mariana Capdevila, who tells OF
the death of del Vale and seeks money to
obtain the fortune of the young daughter
of del Vale. who is to become the ward
OF the prospective victim. In most OF the
letters the fortune is said to be In safety
deposit boxes in New York. and the keys
to the boxes are In the baggage Of the Ia
mented del Vale. which cannot be obtained
without paying certain claims.
One victim complains to the War Depart
ment that the alleged priest has played
him false That is similar to many com
plants received by the State Department
since the Cuban war.

Chinese Boycott on the Wane.

The statements TO the effect that there
Is apprehension in the United States that
the boycott Of American goods is growing
have caused surprise at Picking. All the
Information obtainable shows that the
movement is waning. The Chinese Gus
toms report for 1905. just issued, shows
that the American imports were II 900, 600
taels compared with 100000 in 1904 1t
appears that the importers made enormous
speculative purchases early in the year,
chiefly In anticipation of war demands, and
q decrease III imports would be natural un-
der any circumstances until these stocks
are distributed The report says that the
result OF the boycott is not what had been
expected. Much suspicion and hostility were
created. but the general verdict is chat
little injury has been done to American
manufacturers or merchants.

map throughout the state of Virginia
showed direct north winds. which were quite
brisk.
1t was not expected the birds would come
home with any speed, and many competitors
were absent when their first arrivals trap

timing to their sisters. wives and sweet
hearts, who were not SO apt in the finer art
Of inducing birds to enter the loft, and
were thus seriously handicapped.

miles an hour In a head wind. after having

Garfield Association Adopts Resolu-
ton Conden1ning Heflin Bill.

The Garfield Citizens Association held a
meeting last night, Mr.. A. w Carroii' pres
ident, in the chair. The reports of the sew
eral committees were received and cofsio-
cred all indicating more or less progress IN
the work of each and general activity on
the part of the several members.
The committee on law and order, of which
Mr. Carroll is chairman, reported a decided
Improvement in the police service during
the hours the section is patrolied, but that
the necessity for increased service in that
section as we'll as other outlying districts
has been fully shown by the several at
tempts at assault robbery, etc, in such
sections. The secretary was ordered to COM
municate with the superintendent of the
police department asking If 1t is possible
in the Encouragement of the patroimen 10
assign an officer to that district from il
o'clock midnight to o'clock a. M, be-
tween which hours IL was stated there Is
at present no officer on duty.
The special committee appointed to re-
port on the subject of hall for place of
meetings of the association reported that
accommodations can be secured for a small
monthly rental. Final arrangements had
not, however, been made.
A resolution was presented and adopted,
setting forth that the contemplated bilL
drafted by Representative Helm of Ala
bama to operate a. separate street car ser
vice in the District of Columbia for colored
passengers, is uncalled for, unwise and
reflection upon the coiored people OF the
district and that the bill is an expression of
southern prejudice, having for Its purpose
the humiliation of the eolored residents of
the District of Columbia"
Several subjects were brought up, dis
cussed and referred to the proper commit
tees. These included, among other things
the repair of two pumps and the placing
of an additional one in that section, also
the question of lights on Hamilton road
from Garfield to Congress Heights.
Mr. Anderson, president of the Hulsdaie
association, and Mr.. Harris, member OF
the association. were present and spoke
words of encouragement to the officers and
members and complimented them on the
work they have accomplished

the devastation was too vast and too thor
ough for words to give much of an idea OF
1t. But the people. he said. were showing
remarkable fortitude. relief was being well
distributed, and the whole situation was
about az good as so bad situation could
be made. He said that the relief distribu-
ton would have to be continued for some
time, but the people of San Francisco thor
oughly appreciated what the people of the
rest Of the country had done and were do
ing for them and az whole they were
gamely facing the situation, determined to
rebuild the city and make 1t better than
ever before.
dent that the reports of the devastation
wrought by the earthquake and fire were
not exaggerated. and that the work or re-
lief necessarily must continue for some
time to come. He praised the army for Its
efficient work. and said that DR.. Devine.
representing the Red Cross, and the citi-
Zens' relief committee had done and were
doing everything possible. He was en-
phatic in his communication of e. II. Harrf-
man of the Southern Pacific. who, he said,

ton to affording the facilities of his road

In discussing the situation with repre-
sentative of The Star Secretary Metcalf said
that the destruction of San Francisco and
the other California cities and towns fur
nished the best object lesson to architects
and builders in this country, and, indeed
the world. 1t was proven conclusively, he
said that steel structures had best with
stood the shocks and fire, and that granite
under intense heat was practically worth
less. The opportunity also was afforded, he
said to Judge of the staying qualities of
certain kinds of building material and tnte-
rior finishes.
Another point which he said impressed
him considerably was the fact that the sit
uation disclosed a less proportion of poor
persons in San Francisco than generally
had been supposed. 1t was found that there
was on deposit on the day of the calamity
in savings banks over $l65, 0O0,0O or an
average of $500 per capita for every citizen
of the city.
Discussing the subject OF rebuilding, Sec
rotary Metcalf believed that the resumption
of business was the most important consid-

He particularly was struck, he said, with
the fortitude of the stricken people, and de-
clared that not during the whole time he
plant. He saw many instances. he said, of
women formerly In comfortable circum-
stances walking around barefooted.
AS regards the Chinese, they are being
cared for on exactly the same plans as
every other person, and he said they had no
complaint whatever to make.
