EAGLES CLUB LICENSE.
Hearing Before the Excise Board on
Application.

Application.
AT a hearing before the excise board
yesterday Attorney Shoemaker, repre-
senting the Anti-Saloon League, and r. A
Downing of the Fraternal Order of Eagles
argued for and against the issue of a
liquor license to the Eagles Club at the
northwest corner of 9th and streets.
Claiming that the proposed club was IN
tended to run chiefly as Sunday saloon
and that its establishment would be pub
lie menace in that vicinity, Attorney Shoe
maker presented the signatures of the ma
Jority of residents and property holders in
the neighborhood protesting against the is
suing of the license.
A provision in the charter of the proposed
club entities an unlimited number of MEM
bers. known as passive members To this
Mr.. Shoemaker took particular exception.
He claimed that this membership was Moth
ing more or less than what Is known as
card members in some other Sunday
clubs. Mr.. Shoemaker maintained that this
membership would be greatly abused.
According to Attorney Downing, Mr..
Shoemaker did the Eagles Club a great
injustice by saying that 1t was In the same
category as some Of the alleged Sunday
clubs with headquarters in this city. The
proposed Eagles Club will be bona f1de
mate as any in the District. He claimed
that when signatures had been requested
from the residents in the vicinity the con-
dition of affairs had been grossly misrep-
resented.
The membership, Mr. Downing informed
the board, will be composed Of only those
who belong to the various Eagles clubs,
and that every cent of revenue derived
from the sale of the liquor would be de-
voted to those charitable purposes now fol-
lowed by the organization.
f. e. Mitchell and H. r. Harvey also
spoke In favor of the license.

presented legal argument to the House
committee on rivers and harbors yesterday
representing the American Civic Associa-
ton. IN advocacy of the Burton bill for the
preservation of Niagara Falls.
The main question at issue was the right
of the United States, and Mr.. Griggs main
tained this right was absolute. both with
respect to the control of the stream to pre-
serve navigation and because IL was a
boundary between this and a foreign coun-
try. Therefore Congress might do anything
Il chose in the way of regulating the taking
of water from the stream, or in any other
respect.
on the feature OF the Burton bill which
prohibits the bringing In of electric power
from Canada he also maintained the right
of Congress to act. The case was anala-
eous to the landing of cable IN this coun-
try from a foreign country, which required

Copenhagen Detectives Out

and Force Their
Return.
Special 20 Tho Journal.

Copenhagen, Nov. 10,-Three Rus
sian anarchists, who were under the
surveillance of the international po
lice, arrived here last week to carry
out a plot to assassinate the Dowager
Empress of Russia. Before they ar
rived the Danish secret police receiv-
ed Geographic information from st.
Petersburg, and Russian detectives
went on board the anarchists steam
er and inquired the object Of the
mems visit
This police reception surprised the
anarchists, but their establishment
was increased when the detectives told
them what their. business was The
anarchists were then told that If they
landed they would be arrested and
sent back to Russia under special es-
cort If they preferred to return at
once they were at liberty to do so,
and to inform their comrades that
nothing could be done at Copenhagen.
When one of the Russian detec-
tives was asked why they had treated
the anarchists in this courteous way
he replied that the retired English de-
tective, Inspector Melville, when he
was in attendance on King Edward,
always adopted these methods with
anarchists. The latter were so as
tonished that, as a rule, they aban-
doned forever the plots which were
thus foiled.
