HOWE TOTTEN COMPLAINS
OF OCCOQUAN CONVICTS
Asks Court to Enjoin Commissioners from Allowing
Men Too Much Liberty, Claiming Property
and Family Have Been Menaced

Claiming the location of the District
workhouse at Occoquan and the free and
unguarled manner in which its inmates
are permitted to go about in the neigh
borhood is making the occupancy Of his
home, which is near by, dangerous to
him and his family, and compelled him to
move elsewhere, Howe Totten, of this
city and Fairfax County, Va, yesterday
asked the court to permanently enjoin
the District Commissioners from permit
ting the convicts to go about unguarded
and from trespassing on his property.
Mr.. Totten alleges that he is the owner
Of tract of land leading from Occoquan
to Alexandria and adjoining this institu-
ton. He has owned it for five years, and
he, his wife, and two children have occu-
pied it as a home until recently. There
are also stables, kennels, and Outhouses
on the property, and Mr.. Totten says he
is engaged in raising on his place pedi-
greed dogs of the Great Dane variety and
thoroughbred horses
1t is further declared by Mr.. Totten,
through his attorneys, A. S. Worthington
and Charles L. Frailey, that the District
June 1 last began to use a tract Of 1000
acres adjoining his property for work
house purposes and that temporary
structures had been erected with Will H.
Whitaker in charge.
There are about 800 convicts in the
workhouse and the manner in which it
Is conducted has been negligent and
careless, and of such nature as to be-
come a nuisance to the plaintiff"
1t is declared by Mr.. Totten that con-
victs are permitted at large, unguarded,

WOLGAST MAY RETIRE.
Grows Tired of Training and Harsh
Criticism of Opponents.

New York, March 14-Ad wolgast.
holder of the worlds lightweight cham
pionship, has decided to retire perma-
nently from the ring Immediately after
his bout with Hogan in this city on
April IS.
Wolgast. who will meet George Memsic
in a six-rOund bout at Vernon, Cal. on
Friday, made a positive announcement to
this effect in Los Angeles to-day. He
said that he had grown tired of train
ing and travelling, that he had been dis
heartened by the severe criticism leveled
at him because OF his showing in the
two, bouts with Knockout Brown, and
that his wife had persuaded him to quit
the boxing game forever. Wolsast de-
clared that he had made enough money
out of pugilism to keep him from want,
and that he was anxious to live on a
farm near Cadillac, Mich, the rest of
his days.
IT will engages in two more ring con-
tests, the one with Memsic and the
other with Hogan in New York, the
lght-weIght champion declared. II will
get more than $4,000 for the Memsic bout
and at least 5000 for the Hogan AFFAIR.
1 made 81, 900 out of the two bouts with
Brown. L might go in boxing all comers
and gather double the amount / have
now. but 1 am satisfied to retire without
losing my title in the ring"
