raigned before Judge Mullowny in the

the charge against the others being dis
missed.
Policeman Lotus, colored. of the third
precinct, who preferred the charge, testi-
fled that he was standing on Pennsyi-
vania avenue northwest near 20th street,
yesterday, talking with J. c. Wheeler,
deputy commissioner OF internal revenue,
when the five defendants and two others
approached
They came along as if the street was
not large enough for them" the police
man told the court, land one of TEN
brushed into the commissioner"
The party went into "a barroom nearby
and soon came out and surrounded the
officer he testified. Then they were
arrested.
The telegraphers stated to the cours
that they did not use any profanity and
did not refer in discourteous terms to
the colored policeman. One of them in
testifying referred to the latter as a
''nigger policeman"
Don't call him a nigger," Judge Null
lowny directed. Refer to him as the
negro policeman or as an American cit
zen. He is both of those, but he is not
a nigger."
IAN right, your honor the witness
replied. Il did not see the American
citizen over there, when he says we were
brushing against the commissioner. The
American citizen did not say anything to
me, until he asked me where L was

officers of the local Personal Liberty
League in reference to the contest that
is to he Waged before Congress for and
against the proposition to make Washing
ton "a dry town" Mr. Costello also
stated that so far as he knows the anti
prohibitionists Will be willing to submit
the question of saloon or no saloon to
vote OF the bona fide citizens of the Dis
trict He does not believe Congress
should arbitrarily impose a sumptuary
prohibition law on the people of the Dis
trict of Columbia without giving them
full and fair opportunity of declaring
whether or not they want the saloon
abolished here.
In this connection he added that this
prohibition agitation may cause Congress
to see the wisdom of giving the citizens
of the District complete suffrage in order
that they may regulate their own al
fairs"
Rev f. C. Dinwiddie, the prohibition
worker. declares that ''all the anti-salC.n

DEMANDS POLICE PENSION.
Adolphus Eckloff Seeks to Enforce
Claim by Mandamus

Justice Anderson in Circuit Court No. .
yesterday heard the application of Adolf
phus Eckloff for the issuance of a writ of
mandamus to compel the District Com
missoners to grant him a pension.
1t is set forth in the petition. filed by
Mr. Eckloff. through Attorneys Lambert
& Mclean. that Mr. Eckloff was a mem
Der of the first squad of the metropolitan
police force: that he served from 1861 un-
til 1883. when he ceased to be a member
of the force temporarily. and was ap-
pointed a station keeper in 1886, from
which time he claims to have served con-
tinuously up to 1906 when he was retired
on account of age.
Mr.. Eckloff claims that under the act
of 1888, which granted a pension to any
retired officer who had served for fifteen
years, he is entitled to a pension. /. is
said that his failure to receive it is by
reason of the fact that from 1856 to 1901
station keepers were not considered regu-
lar members of the metropolitan police
force but were made so by act of Con-
gress in February, 1901, since which time
however he has not. of course, served
fifteen years.
