WANT PROTECTION
AT WAITING STATION
Citizens of Capitol. Heights
Complain of Conditions at
District Line.

Voicing their Indignation at the al
legged lack of police protection at the
District line, where Louis Troutman
was shot and killed Tuesday night by
Arthur Carroll, colored boy, the
citizens of Capitol Heights say they
will appeal to Maj. Sylvester Monday.
A mass meeting of citizens was held
last night at the residence Of Judge
John Weast, in Capitol Heights. and
Indignation was freely expressed at the
conditions said to. prevail at 61st and c
streets northeast, where the ELECTRIC
railway car waiting station is located.
The speakers declared that although
there is a gang of boys. ranging from
fourteen to twenty years of age, con-
stantly hanging around this station,
many of them armed with revolvers
and frequently raising disturbances, a
policeman is rarely seen there during
the day. and almost never at night.
The police sent there, it was said,
never remain longer than half an hour
call up to notify headquarters that
they have visited the corner and then
leave.
Meeting Attended by 100.
John Gabriel and John McGinnis. the
former president Of the citizens asso-
citation OF Capitol Heights, were
among the speakers. and will also
serve on the committee that will call
upon Maj. Sylvester Monday. About
100 representative citizens Of Capitol
Heights attended the meeting.
Hundreds Of men and women living
in Capitol Heights come daily to
Washington to work, 1t was said, and
"the gang of toughs which hangs
about the waiting station is a constant
menace, particularly to the women and
girls" Another grievance that will bt
laid before the superintendent of po-
lice by the citizens committee is that
no electric light has been placed at
the waiting station, and that with the
short days of the year coming on this
corner is more dangerous than ever.
Arthur Carroll is only one of a num-
Der Of boys who carry guns with them
when they cOngregate about the walt
ing station, it was said. and the police
will be urged to make a clean haul OF
all the gun carriers. 1t was said to be
so common to hear a revolver shot at
night about this neighborhood that
when Troutman was shot Tuesday
night no one paid much attention to
the sound Of the revolver which killed
him.
Fully $500 persons pass through this
waiting station or near it every day,
it was said.

Plea for Natural Scenery

President Taft has received letter
from Mrs. E. S. Hollngsworth, secre-

gusta, urging him to take steps to save
Tallulah falls, Georgia's most beautiful
place. from Dissertation. The President
has referred the letter to the Secretary
of Interior to find if the government has
any right to interfere. Mrs. Hollings-
worth says that Tallulah falls forms one
Of the grandest scenes in the eastern
part of the United States, and that it is
an outrage on nature for power plants

HOPE OF AGREEMENT
Plan Awaiting Arrival of New
Russian Ambassador.
DESIRE TO REVISE TREATY
proposed to Press for the Admission
Of Naturalized Jewish
Citizens.
DESIRE TO REVISE TREATY

With The early arrival here of NJ. Bakh-
metieff the new Russian ambassador. the
officials of the State Department are
hopeful of the conclusion Of some ar
rangement for the better treatment OF
naturalized American Jews seeking to
visit Russia. The new ambassador Is ex-
pected to reach here in few days. 1t Is
understood that he has authority to open
negotiations for u revision of the treaty
of commerce and navigation of 1882 be-
tween Russia and the United States.
Demand for Revision.
The necessity for the revision of that
ancient convention has been brought nome
to President Taft by the many demands
and appeals from Jewish organizations
throughout the country for removal Of
the alleged discrimination made by Rus
STA against native and naturalized Amer
lean Jews seeking to enter Russia Al
though apparently the existing treaty does
not draw any line as between native and
naturalized citizens. the Russian gov
eminent has placed a construction upon
the article regarding entry and right OF
travel that operates to exclude from Rus
STA any Jews except commercial travellers
and those visiting Russia temporarily in
the pursuit of business.
1t is understood here that the Russian
government finds itself embarrassed in
undertaking negotiations involving the
right Of American Jews to enter Russia
because of the difficulty of avoiding a
charge by other nations of discrimina-
ton. There is believed to be no consider
able objection on the part of the Russian
government to the extension to the
American Jews of the privilege of enter
ing Russia for the reason that most of
these Jews are SO well satisfied with the
United States place of abode that
their only purpose in going to Russia
aside from business reasons, is to make
a temporary visit to relatives or friends.
Ruasia's Objection.
But there is serious objection on the
part of the Russian government to open
ing the country to the free entry Of the
great body Of Polish and French and
oriental Jews. who stand on an entirely
different footing from their American CO.
religionists The difficulty is to shape
the new Russo-American treaty SO as to
admit the unobjectionable American Jews
without leaving the way open for other
European nations to base demand upon
Russia for similar treatment of their
own Jews under the favored nation
clauses of existing treaties 1t Is be-
lieyed that way has been found to do
this, hut II will remain for M. Bakhmetieff
to decide whether or not that plan is ac-
ceptable to the Russian government.

.KL|NC[E ROAD BRIDGE
REPORTED QUITE SAFE

Residents of Cleveland Park and others
who travel along Connecticut avenue ex-
tended have no cause to be alarmed over
the safety of the bridge on Connecticut
avenue, at klingle road. according to a
report by T. c. j. Baily. jr, District en-
eineer Of bridges, which has been ap-
proved by Capt. Mark Brooke, assistant
to the Engineer Commissioner of the Dis
trict.
Reports have reached the municipal
building to the effect that the bridge ap-
pears to be inadequate to safely sustain
the heavy traffic to which it is subjected
and that even the passage of heavy
brick cart over it causes it to shake vio-
lently.
Regarded as Absolutely Safe.
According to Mr.. Baily's report. the
bridge Is ample to carry any trafhc That
might come on it for many years WIN
ter before last, this official states, the nee
die trusses of the bridge were replaced SO
that the structure would be safe for car
rying the heavy cars of the Capital Trac-
ton Company that pass over it. The VI
bration. he says. is no greater than Is 10
be expected in any pin connected truss of
similar construction.
One of the complaints received stated
that. while but one car at a time is al
lowed on the bridge. the cars pass over
it at a high rate of speed. and the brakes
are frequently applied while the cars are
on the bridge, which subjects 1t to al
ditional strain
As Additional Factor.
Referring to this feature, Capt Brooke
in his Endorsement of Mr.. Bailys report,
says:
The limitation as to the number OF
cars on the bridge, to which the writer
seems to attach some significance, was
placed before the strengthening of the
trusses and while 1t is no longer neces-
sary for the safety of the structure. IL mas

WOMEN NOT ALLOWED
At '''IARR|NC' TRIAL
Judge Gives Newspaper Men
Tip Not to Send Out Sem
: sationaI Stories.

LINCOLN CENTER, Kan, November
17.-Twelve jurymen, all subject to chal-
lenge, sat in the box when the case Of
Sheriff. Clark. a wealthy merchant, and
brother OF Everett G. Clark. who already
has pleaded guilty; A. N. Simms. a mill
worker. and John Schmidt, farmer. was
called in the district court today. The
three are charged with assault and bat
terry in connection with the tarring Of
Miss Mary Chamberlain of Shady Bend,
Kan.
Farmers from surrounding counties
We're driving as many as forty miles to
hear the "tarrin' case. and every citi-
zen who could KNOCK orr from his work
crowded into Judge Dallas Growers court
room.
Tip to Newspaper Men.
Following Judge Growers order that no
women or children be allowed in the
courtroom. because the judge believed
the testimony would be unfit for the ears
of any mother or daughter of Lincoln
county," the few women who would have
been attending the trial were noticeably
absent and the men had the courtroom
to themselves.
Judge Grover passed around a quiet
tip to the newspaper reporters that 1t
would be distasteful to the court to have
to exclude them from the courtroom for
sending sensationally colored stories to
their papers.
The man who carried the message said
Lincoln county has had enough detri-
mental advertising as a, result of the
tarring. The judges order to- exclude
women and children and to curb sensa-
tional newspaper reports followed petit
ton from the Womens Civic League of
Lincoln County.
First Panel Exhausted.
The first panel of thirty-four tales
men having been exhausted in secur-
ing the twelve men in the box, a new
venire of 100 was summoned during
the night and early hours today. and
was in attendance when court con-
vened. The Defendants attorneys are
asking each venireman if he would con-
slider the separate guilt of each defend
ant. although the three are being tried
together.
unwillingness to do this results i'm
for cause. The possibility of
securing a jury before night led the
to- declare that Miss Cham
berlain would take the stand tomorrow
and tell her story. According to Miss
three men did the actual
work of tarring, while the remainder
&c ia mob looked on. One man held
her PROSTATE. another held the bucket
of tar, Mnd third smeared the black
mess over Miss Chamberlain's body and
limbs.
