BOND REQUIRED.
Judge Mullowny Comments Upon
Phase Of Romance Before Him.

'"This is one of the most romantic cases
ever heard" remarked Judge Mullowny in
the Police Court this morning, in the course
of the trial of the charge of threats against
Allie Moore. At the conclusion of the trial
he ordered Moore to give a real estate bond
for $500 to keep the peace or to serve sixty
days in Jail. Incidentally Judge Mullowny
sought to get in as a candidate for the
Nobel peace prize.
Frank R. Swami. a young man about
twenty years old, was the prosecuting wit
ness In the course of his testimony the
romance came out. About two weeks ago,
it was stated, the two young men had q
dispute over a girl, each claiming that the
other was interfering with her personal
rights But that blew over. Early yester-
day morning, however-about 1 O'Clock, IN
fact-Moore called at Swanns nome ana
charged him with doping" girl friend;
Swami knew the girl mentioned, but denied
that he had 'doped' her, she being desig-
mated as a particular friend of his. This
started a lively dispute some harsh epithets
were applied and some threats of boyish
character made. Moore testified that one
Dragged about what he could do to the
other and that was the extent of the
threats.
you just lock US two in room and let
us fight it out" remarked Swami; in COM
planning that Moore wanted others to help
him.

Judge Mullowny. 81 think you two would
better shake hands and make up
II will, if he will apologize to my mother
for calling her Names replied Swami.
Yesterday morning he called her all kinds
of Names"
II will apologize to her If she will apol-
ogfze to me for what she said to me-" said
Moore.
You mustn't expect that" remarked
Judge Mullowny. You must take those
things from a woman"
II want no more of this fighting over
girls" remarked the court Moore, will
you apologize and then agree not to have
any more trouble with Swami" Moore was
silent, while the court waited.
ooh well, I can't wait here all day. You
will give $500 bond or go to jail for sixty
days"
Mrs. Swami and two girl friends of Swami,
Ethel Watson and May Adams, were wit

DR.. LASKER REVIEWS
HIS THIRD VICTORY

NEW YORK, February 2.-Although
Marshall suffered another defeat in the
third game Of the match for the world 8
championship against Lasker on Thursday.
his friends are not disheartened, and are
much pleased in one respect, namely, that
the young Brooklyn player did show some of
his real form. He played sterling chess
until he committed the fatal blunder on
the forty-second move.
Lasker has not lost any Of his old cum
ming, and although he played Black and
had to put up with Marshalrs brilliant
Queens Gambit, he managed to play a
difficult defense in excellent style, using
only twenty minutes elaboration for the
first sixteen moves. In reviewing the third
game Lasker gave out the following state
ment:
1.-The third game of the match produced
an even defense to the Queens Gambit
which turned out full Of fine points, some
what difficult to analyZe, except by the
Steinitzian method of general principles
Although both sides pressed in turn, weak
ening moves were avoided. This is by no
means an easy program to execute, as one
Is constantly tempted to attack. The only
exception was Whites advance of the X
B on the twenty-fr move, which, while
aggressive, was slightly compromising
1.-THE critical stage was reached at the
thirtieth move, when, to compensate for a
weak Q B P, Marshall with excellent tudg-
ment, played to win the exchange and a
pawn, allowing at the same time a We
hement counter attack Had he played
AZ RIB difficult end game of Queen VS..
two Rocks would have ensued, which might
have ended either in draw or a win for
Black Marshall was evidently under the
impression that he had weathered the
storm, which accounts for the blunder on
his forty-second move"
The score of the. match now reads: Las
ker, 8; Marshall. o. The fourth game viii
be played at the Everett House, 4th avenue
and 18th street, this afternoon.

Connecticut avenue this morning in an un-
conscious condition brought about by inhal
ing fumes from gasoline torch. Wilson

opening was not large enough to permit the
fumes to escape fast enough to make the
place a safe one. When other workmen
found him in the pit they removed him to
the bridge and sent for the Emergency
Hospital ambulance. The ambulance was
engaged upon another case, however, and

The subcommittee on street railways
streets and avenues of the House District
committee met yesterday to consider the
bill passed Wednesday by the Senate pro-
viding routes of approach to the Union
station for the various street railroads of
Washington. The bill is opposed by many
citizens who live along North Capitol and
X streets. The people on X street. es-
pecially, do not want the bill to become a
law. because it will place a street car line
In front of their houses; besides they have
not been consulted nor have they had a
chance to give their approval, even il they
had no objection and desired to consent to
the use of the street for the above-men-
toned purpose.

was made manifest to the proposition.
The subcommittee had the advice of sew
eral senators who familiar with the
matter and are opposed to the project.
These senators were taken unawares by
the passage of the bill.
The amendment running line of tracks
along II street had not been brought up
when the bill was considered in the Senate
committee, and 1t was supposed that the
cars of the Capital Traction Company
would run to the west from the loop at
the plaza on Massachusetts avenue, where
the tracks of the Columbia street railway
could be used. The bill as reported when
was attached to il when read In the Senate
Wednesday. In the rapid reading of the
many routes, senators did not notice the
proposition to authorize cross-town line
The discovery later that over half mile
of new road was chartered in the bill did
not meet with very cheerful reception
among certain members of the committee.
Furthermore, notice had been given that
the bill would be called up today, and SEN
ators who would be opposed to the X street
line were not expecting to have 1t taken
up Wednesday.
The routes as they Were reported from
the Senate committee were acceptable to
the House committee, to whom had been
furnished a map showing the plan finally
devised to satisfy all the demands of the
situation with reference to street car ac-
