ARRESTED AFTER A STRUGGLE.
Policeman Green's Experience With
Prisoner,

Prisoner.
A young colored man giving his name as
William Moore was measured and photo
ing in order that copies Of the photograph
may be sent to the police authorities Of
other cities. The local police have an Idea
that he is probably wanted in some other
city. and 1t is for the purpose of having
the prisoner identified that the action men,
toned was taken. Moore was arrested in
Twining City about $50 o'clock yesterday
morning by Mounted Policeman Green be-
cause the latter thought his appearance IN
Dictated that he was probably tramp.
II amt done nothin'." the prisoner said.
His demeanor indicated that the prisoner
had no intention Of accompanying the po-
nceman to the station. Only q short dis
lance had been traversed when the pris-
oner made an effort to get away. He drew
revolver and pointed the weapon in-the
direction Of the policeman, when the latter
grabbed him by the arm and changed its
direction. call was made for help. The
policeman had to wait until residents OF
Twining City went to his assistance. Even
then the prisoner continued the effort to
use the weapon and escape.
Moore was finally knocked down and
overpowered After being disarmed he was
taken to the Anacostia police station and
locked up. Sergt. Anderson questioned
that he had served time in prisons in other
sections. The prisoner would not tell the
policemen whence he came. He was taken
to the Police Court this morning and ar
raigned upon a charge Of carrying conceal
ed weapons A fine Of $75 was imposed,
Moore said he thought friends would pay
the fine.

HEARING DEFERRED.
Application for Liquor Licenses Go
Over Until Wednesday.

The time for considering the applications
for licenses for the sale of liquor in Alexan-
dria county, which had been set for this
morning before Judge c. E. Nicol Of the
circuit court, was continued this afternoon
until Wednesday at 2 o clock, upon the mo-
ton Of Attorney c. c. Carlin of Alexandria,
who represented the applicants. The atten-
ton Of the court was occupied today in
hearing felony case.
There was only one application, which. 1t
Is claimed. had the requisite number Of
signers. All the others were short by fif-
teen to thirty names.
All but one of the brick companies in
Jefferson district, the district in which the
application will be made, have signed a
petition which has placed in the hands OF
Commemorative Attorney Crandall Mac
key, protesting against the granting Of any
licenses in that district, as they claim a
saloon hurts their business. owing to the
congestion OF wagons In front Of a bar
room.
Attorney Frank Lyons, Rev A. w. Graves
and Mr.. George Hawxhurst appeared in
court as the representatives of those op-
posed to the granting of licenses, and At
torneys c. c. Carlin and Charles Bendheim
appeared for the applicants. Attorney
Lyons demanded that the counsel for the
opposition be allowed to examine the names
signed to the petition, as it is alleged that
to one of the petitions filed last year was
signed the name Of dead man, and one
other name was forged. Attorney Carlin
protested against any examination of the
petitions even after they had been filed with
the clerk, but Judge Nicol stated that after
the papers had been filed he would allow
them to be examined.
Attorn,y Carlin subsequently stated,
after a consultation with Mr.. Bendheim,
that he did not wish to be understood as
promising that any application would be
made on Wednesday. as the matter might
be held over to the next term of the court,
which convenes the fourth Monday in Oc-
tober.
The only application having the requisite
number of signers. 1t is stated. was that
of James Petit, who desires to open a
barroom on the road leading from the
brick yards to Washington In what is To-
cally known as "Hell's Bottom"

RATE BILL CALLED UP.
Tillman Objects to the Pipe Line
Amendment

Immediately after the Senate met today
the clerk of the House of Representatives
announced the action of that body on the
railroad rate bill. but 1t was allowed to
lie on the Vice Presidents desk until $50
pm, when 1t was called up by Senator
Tillman. After the report was read Mr..
Tillman called attention to the fact that
his name was not attached. He presented
and defended it, he said. at the request
of the republican Senate conferees, but he
said he was opposed to the agreement
concerning one amendment. to which he
would later move that the Senate dis
agree.
He had reference to the McLaurn amend
ment divorcing the carrying and producing
business. which was amended so that 1t
does not apply to pipe lines.
The damage in this amendment, 'in plain
English" he said. meant that Standard
OIL had got in its work" The agreement in
regard to the amendment. he said, relieved
the Standard Oil Company from control
and regulation of the interstate CONNER CO
commission.

lowed by a renewal Of high temperatures,
and the market advanced after the open
ing to a net advance Of 4a1O points, led

by Liverpool houses. At the advance Of

FRIENDS NTERPosE
EFFORTS TO HAVE VETERAN
WATCHMEN REINsTATED.

Friends Of the eight veteran watchmen Of
the State, War and Navy departments, who
were dismissed on the ground that they are
superannuated, are making strong efforts
to secure their retention in Office, II only
for few months longer. Among those
working in behalf Of the old men are SEN
ator Proctor, Representative Wadsworth
and representatives Of the Grand Army OF
the Republic.
As has been already stated In The Star
three Of the men dismissed are veterans of
the civil war and one of the three Is also
veteran Of the Mexican war. They have
all been on the watch force many years
All Of them have passed the three score age
period and three Of them are over eighty
years Of age. So far as known they were
all able to perform the duties assigned to
them, which were not especially arduous.
What Is cited as special hardship IN
these cases Is that there was no absolute
necessity for their dismissal. The entire
force of watchmen Of these three depart
ments Ia provided for in the appropriation
for the next fiscal year on the same basis
as for the past year. and the only reason
given for the removal OF the eight men
Is that they have outlived their usefulness
and are no longer needed. 1t Is not de-
signed to fill their places with younger
or more vigorous men. and the saving er-
fected by their removal, amounting IN all
to S.. 76O a year. will lapse into the treas
ury. 1t Is represented on behalf of the
men that they are dependent on their sal
aries and are too old to secure employ
ment outside
One of the number who lost his leg in the
civil war takes philosophical view of the
situation. He says he gets pension from
the government and that he can probably
get into the Soldiers Home. He would have
preferred. he said. to end his days outside
Of the home, however. He added. patheti-
cally. that none Of the men would have
troubled the authorities much longer II
they had been let alone "and," he added,
ut would rot have been necessary to dis
charge us. either
The committee from the Grand Army Of
the Republic called on Secretary Taft In the
interests of the three war veterans, and
were referred to Secretary Root, as the
president Of the departmental commission.
1t is officially admitted that Capt. Poole,
superintendent of the building, in calling
for the resignation Of the eight watchmen
acted upon instructions from the commits
sion.

Grain and Provisions Summary.
CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.

CHICAGO. June 25.-The wheat market
opened easier today. despite reports Of ex-
teIsive damage by rain and hail in Kan
sas. Weakness In the Liverpool market
was the chief factor in making an easy
market here. Large shipments from Russia
were responsible for the latter condition.
Commission houses were early sellers, but
later buying by shorts and several promi-
nent bulls steadied the market somewhat.
September wheat opened shade to NAN
lower. at S3h to "a. and declined to 83X
and reacted to S3h.
Continued rains throughout the corn belt
sent September corn down to SIX.

Der oats eas.i Off to 345sa35.

BULLS AND BEARS

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, June 25.-Some Of the best
judges Of the stock market were OF the
opinion today that prices would go lower
this week. The break in the market on
Saturday, following the substantial rise OF
the previous day, was taken as typical OF
the probable movement OF prices IN the
near future. Nothing more than temporary
rallies were expected and 1t was noticed
that on such occasions a good deal Of long
stock came out.
; Nothing happened over Sunday to change
this speculative outlook for the immediate
future. The main trouble with the market
seemed to be an absence Of sustained buy
ing power. and although crop conditions
according to the latest reports from the
western sections were entirely satisfactory,
1t was believed that something more than
this would be required to stimulate an up
ward movement In the stock market. Men
with excellent sources of information de-
clared that q good deal more stock would
have to be liouldated before a prolonged
rise In prices would occur. Although It
was admitted that some OF the pools had
lightened their loads, 1t was believed that
considerable more selling would come from
such quarters on every occasion that such
offerings could be absorbed without q too
violent break in prices.
The short interest was. of course, OF
large proportions and temporary rallies
might be expected on the covering Of Its
Contracts. The fact was considered worthy
OF note however, that buying Of this sort
had been the chief means Of causing the
last fortnight and there appeared very
nttle disposition on the part Of the larger
financial interests or the outside public to
buy stocks even on the depressions.
