ton OF the fifth precinct lively time last
evening, 1t Is alleged. when the officers at
tempted to arrest them for alleged disor-
derby conduct. When all parties appeared

tinued until tomorrow
Policemen Kenney and jackson were pa
trolling their beat last evening along G
street when they heard the sound Of hard
bows. and upon drawing near to the house
at 1918 G street southeast they discovered,
they say. that the Edelins were engaged in
an alteration. Joseph was first arrested
and later placed in the patrol wagon, in
charge Of Policeman Clinton. The other
two officers returned to arrest the woman.
In the absence Of the two officers, It il

on Policeman Clinton, but was held until
the return OF the others. Then, It Is de-
clared. both man and wife began the use Of
their feet and fists in an effort to disfigure

RATIFIEs THE VERDICT.
Action by Court in Matter Of School
Street Extension.

StIecI G4t6uB1Ou.
Justice Barnard of the Supreme Court
of the District of Columbia today, on mo.
ton Of Attorney A. Leftwich Sinclair, rep
resenting the District Commissioners
signed an order finally ratifying and con-
firming the verdict Of the Jury in the mat
ter Of the extension of School street north.
west from its present southern terminus
to- Irving street,
No objections were filed to the verdict
by any Of the persons whose land Is to be
taken or against which assessments for
benefits were levied by the jury.
BY the verdict, which was reported to the
court July I, the jury awarded the sum
of $1S.s34s3 as damages resulting from
the extension, and assessed benefits against
the property in the neighborhood Of the
extension aggregating 49, 22O.5O, being q
sum equal to the damages awarded and the
costs and expenses Of the condemnation
proceedings.
Benefits were assessed by the jury against
all OF the real estate fronting on School
street. all OF the property on Lamont street
between School and 10th streets, and
against the property on both sides Of Irv-
ing street between 14th and 10th streets.
1t developed today that the jury levied
an assessment for benefits amounting to
500 against the property Of Attorney Sin
clair, who has had charge Of local con-
domination proceedings for several years.
Mr.. Sinclair's property is on Lamont street
The fact that Mr.. sinclair's property was
assessed is regarded as joke by attorneys
who have been opposed to Mr.. Sinclair in
various street extension cases. Mr.. Sin
clair's property is a square from the extern
sion.
The jury in the School street case was
composed of w. H. Rapley, Charles ].
Walker Joseph H. Crawford, T. F. Schnei-
der and Thomas p Stephenson.

Crank Perjury" Court Says.

'"T'here Is rank perjury in this case. "
Judge Mills stated in the Police Court to-
day, when he finished hearing the testi-
mony in the case Of Howard Brown, col
ored, charged with making an assault on
Lottie Byrd. -Four witnesses came here
for the government and swore that they
saw an assault committed, and then five
witnesses appeared for the defense and
swore that they were present at the time
and saw no assault whatever. Either one
side or the other is committing perjury. 1t
is too bad that there is no way to sift
down such matters and punish such rank
perjury as is evident In this case"
Judge Mills then announced that he was
unable to tell which side was telling the
truth and therefore gave the benefit of the
doubt to the defendant, dismissing the
case. 4 !

atory to the installation Of one Of the ele-
vaters to be erected there. they hit upon a
large unhewn rock, which they thought
might be a covering to a vault containing
treasure chest. They were left to indulge
in dreams. because the order to lift the
heavy stone was not forthcoming, and when
quitting time came 1t was still uncertain
what lay hid beneath the slab. The su-
perintendent Of the building, Mr.. Sherwood,
said this morning that while he Is not GER

With Committee Of Ten.

These men viii meet with a committee OF
ten appointed by the Central Labor Union
several weeks ago and have prepared to re-
main here until some definite conclusion IS
reached.
The meeting is said to be the supreme eff
fort on the part of uniorists to adjust the
differences in this city between employers
and union workmen of the building trades,
which dates back to the dispute between
the employing plumbers and their Journey
men last summer. Efforts have been made
by board OF arbitration to settle the Diff
ferenCes, but those attempts have not re-
suited in permanent industrial peace. Build
ing operations have been delayed and great
financial loss has been inflicted upon both
employers and workmen by enforced idle
ness.
The situation finally resulted in the dis
patching OF kilograms to the union officials
who are now here in Washington to consult
with the committee of ten. President Com
pers Of the American Federation of Labor
has been asked 10 attend the conference.
The committee Of ten will explain the sit
uation in detail to the visiting officials, and
the Employers Association has been in
vited to present Its side Of the controversy.
