sibly prejudice the Congressional inves-
tigators In the matter. This will leave
ford IL the evidence warrants such ac-
ton. The subcommittee of the House,
Judiciary Committee, Of which Repre-
sentative Graham of Illinois is chairman,
is expected to reach Washington by the
first OF next week When Judge Hanford
announced that he would quit the bench,
Chairman Clayton. of the judiciary Com

for the subcommittee to cease its inves-
tieation and to return at once and re-
port on its work up to that time.

have obtained considerable evidence con-
cerning the moral qualifications of Judge
Hanford. Some Of the evidence is under
stood to bear out charges laid before the
committee that the Judge was addicted to
alcoholic drinks. The investigation was
set forth through a resolution intro

the House. He charged that Judge Han
ford had annulled the naturalization pa
pers of John OLSEN, a Socialist, of
Washington, who had advocated certain

CITIZENS OBJECT
TO IMPROVEMENT
Adjustment of Willow Tree Alley
Not Approved by South
west Residents.
MASS MEETING HELD

Claiming that a great injustice will BE-
done to them should the law recently
passed by Congress calling for the abol-
ishment OF Willow Tree Alley. between
Third and Four-and-a-half Streets
and Maryland Avenue and c Street
Southwest. as a place OF residence,
and that a public playground be made
in its stead. go into effect, large num-
ber of property owners and taxpayers
of that vicinity met in a public mass
meeting last night in ST. Dominic's Hall,
Sixth and E Streets Southwest, and
adopted resolutions of protestation, which
are Immediately to be placed before the
Supreme Court Of the District of Co.
lumbia.
Should this law 60 into effect. II
means that several hundred people who
at present reside in this alley will have
to move and seek homes elsewhere" 4"
said Martin wiegand. a lumber mer-
chant of Four-and-a-half Street and
Maryland Avenue, ''and ii is from these
people that a large number of the small
business men, such as grocers. druggists.
dry goods stores, shoemakers. &c. make
their living. Yet these very same men
are to be assessed for benefits" which
they are to receive from the Fairgrounds.
What the benefits will be is more than
I or any one else in this locality can
understand"
VIII Derive No BENEFIT.
Under the law which was passed,
one third OF the expense Of the so-called
improvement was to be levied by a jury
Of condemnation against property al
legged to be benefited by the change.
but the property owners and business
men of this section are emphatic in
their statements that they will derive no
benefits from the playground, but. on
the contrary, they say that their busi-
ness will suffer severe losses, and in
some cases means of a livelihood taken
away.
II fail to see," said another well known
business man of Southwest Washington.
and a large property holder. wherein
there is going TO be any improvement
by making a playground out OF this
alley. i am not an antagonist to i'm
proving local conditions, but approve of
any effort in that direction provided
that It can be attained without injustice
to any citizen. But in this case a great
injustice is being done the citizens of
this section.
Resolutions were drawn up at the
meeting last night by a committee COM
posed of Martin wiegand, John T.

and these will at once be presented TO
