NO NIGHT CARS FOR BROOKLAND
NORTH WASHINGTON CITIZENS
ABANDON DEMAND.
Now Ask Railroad for Through Car
Between and 8 O'Clock A. N.
for Bureau Employees.

The principal business last night at the
meeting Of the North Washington Citi-
zens' Association was the report of the
committee on transportation regarding ALL
night cars on the Brookland line.
j. L. McGrew, chairman of the COM
mittee, announced that his committee had
called on the officers of the railway COM
pany and presented a petition signed by
500 people asking that extra night serv-
ice be established by the railway COM
pany. as many employees Of the govern
ment printing Office who worked at night
resided in the neighborhood.
The railway officials later gave de-
cision, in which it was announced that
they could not afford to give the all-night
service, as of the 500 names on the Pc
tition submitted only eighty were directly
interested. In view of this fact it was
decided by the association to drop the
matter.
Harry Thomas asked that the commit
tee on transportation make an effort to
have through car on the Brookland
line to the bureau of engraving and
printing between 7 and O'Clock in the
costa and 9th street lines. Mr.. Thomas
stated that a great many employees of
the bureau reside In the section and I'm
Brookland. and that they are compelled
18th and G streets northwest, whereas
a special car 70 rthe bureau employees
is run on each of the other three lines.
He asserted that many employees of the
bureau wanted to move to the section
of the city within the limits of the as
ISOLATION, but they would not do so at
the present time because Of the made
quate car service.
The transportation committee was d.
rected to communicate with the railway
officials and ask for the service.
In a communication from the District
Commissioners it was announced that
condemnation proceedings are in progress
for the extension of I'd street between
u and Bryant streets northwest. and
that an appropriation Of $1,000 is at hand
for its improvement. 1t was also stated
that Todd place. from LIST to I'd streets
northwest, and from North Capitol street
to Lincoln road northeast, will be paved
during the fiscal year OF 1910.
The association was informed that $685.
100 had been appropriated by Congress for
improvements in the section. and also
thu. an appropriation of 5000 had been
made Tor additional ground on the north
of the Gage school, to be used as a play
ground.
Ralph E.. Walker was elected a member
of the association.

LEGISLATORS QUOTED IN FAVOR
OF A COMMISSION.
Chairman Miles Predicts That the
Payne Bill Will Provide for
Such an Organization.

That the tariff bill In its final form will
provide for a permanent tariff board is
confidently predicted by H. e. Miles.
chairman of the executive committee of
the committee of one hundred appointed
at the recent Indianapolis tariff conven-
ton to foster such a plan.
Mr.. Miles announces that Senator AL
drich. chairman of the committee. has in
formed him that he favors some such ar
rangement and adds that Senator AL
drich may be expected to distinguish him
self by working out the problem
Senator Root according to Mr.. Miles,
has also declared himself in favor of the
tariff board, being of the opinion that it
would be "of immeasurable value to the
executive In the wise extension OF our
foreign markets and to such as myself in
determining the merits of tariff questions
coming before us constantly
Among others whom Mr. Miles men
toned as having informed him that they
were in favor of the scheme were Repre-
sentative Mccall of the House ways and
means committee, who was quoted as say
ing that in his opinion 1.-The present bill
makes something of this kind necessary
The mistakes in the present BILL" said
Mr.. Miles. some of great consequence,
some small and one whole schedule known
to be radically wrong with no chance of
making it right in either house at this
sesson-this and the general need of
world markets are making the need of
this tariff board clear to every one.
1T will be the aim to have on the
board men of wide experience and judg-
ment who will be competent advisers of
the executive in all tariff matters, domes-
tic and foreign. costs and conditions of
production included. and to be Of partic-
ular assistance to the President in nego-
tiatng with foreign nations under the
ma ximum and minimum provso.'

Prelate Hears Lecture on "Psychol
ogy and RELIGION"

Cardinal Gibbons. wearing the red
hat of his ecclesiastical rank, was the
central figure last evening at a lecture
on Psychology and Religion" by Rev.
DIR. Edward A. Pace. dean Of the fac
ulty of philosophy at the Catholic
University Of America, at Rauscher's.
In the large audience also were several
Catholic clergymen and men and wom-
en- who rank high in educational and
church circles. The lecturer argued
deliberately on the relation of psy-
chology to the two remaining doctrines
Of Christian faith-the Immortality Of
ten soul and the freedom Of the will.
He defined religion as an anchorage
for the human mind and not as a cas-
ket of truth vouchsafed by Divine rev.
citation.
The lecture was one of a series, it
was stated. given for the benefit OF the
Anna Hanson Dorsey scholarship for
Trinity College. which is to perpetuate
memorial to that author. Any young
woman can take the examination for
the scholarship. provided she Ia a resi-
dent of the District. No applica tions
for examination will be considered un-
til the sum Of $500 has been raised.

People Of Besieged City in Terrible
Plight, Facing Either Starva-

LONDON. April 6.-The correspondent
of the Times at Teheran sends the follow
ing dispatch:
1.-THE revolutionaries who have been de-
Tending Tabriz recently have been re-
inforced by an Irishman and an Ameri-
can, both OF whom are busly drilling the
volunteers. The sufferings of the town
are increasing daily. and 1t is not doubted
that the great tragedy Is approaching. If
Tabriz holds out, thousands must die of
starvation. while If it fails probably tens
Of thousands will be massacred. Nom
combatants who may leave the doomed
city have little hope of succor, even II
they escape from the bloodthirsty tribes
who are blocking the roads, for the coun-
try around is devastated for several days
march. Whatever may be the outcome Of
the situation, 1t is feared that an appal
ling loss of human life must ensue.
1T Tabriz were within reach of Eu-
rope. philanthropic people would be bust
ly preparing help against the inevitable
denouement, but in Asia there 10 little
humanitarian sentiment, and the inhabi-
tants of Tabriz have nowhere to look for
assistance. Thousands are staring death
in the face with the knowledge that there
is no escape.

HORSE IN DEEP SLEEP.
Equine in San Bernardino, CAL, Can
not Be Aroused.

SAN BERNARDINO. Cal. April g.
Charles Muir. mine owner of Wild Rose
Canyon has a queer equine case on his
hands. His horse went to sleep two
weeks ago. and despite strenuous efforts
ii has remained in deep slumber ever
since. That 1t is slowly coming out Of its
queer repose, Muir says. is evident by its
increasing susceptibility to the report of
a shotgun, with which the owner has
daily tested its power of hearing.
Over two weeks ago the horse was lost,
and when found 1t was in q gorge. Muir
discovered where IT had slid down a steep
side Of the moDntain. The animal was
considerably bruised, but was led back to
the Muir place. Muir threw in a forkful
OF alfalfa. and next morning was sur
prised to find the animal still standing
where he had left it, the feed untouched.
