The offer of a $50 Conover Baby
Grand Plano to the contest worker turn
ing in the most votes between December
cS 1872. and January 15 1913, is giving
renewed impetus to the efforts OF con-
testants and their supporters.
The Advocate has made extensive

FAIL TO FIND CLEW
TO BOYS MURDERER
Police Work Vainly on Strange Case
Of Jacob Moon, coIored, Who
Was Beaten to Death.

That the murder of Jacob Moon. negro.
eighteen years old, an employe In a
candy store, living at 213l Ward Place
Northwest, whose almost lifeiess~ body
was found in a vacant lot near Twenty
seventh and G Streets Northwest yes-
terday morning. will develop into a police
mystery is the opinion OF eight detectives
and half score Of uniformed men de-
tailed to the case.
From a short time after the discovery
of the unconscious negro until late last
night the police worked increasingly in
the hope of finding, a clew which might
lead to an explanation of the killing,
but their efforts were fruitless Except
that the Identity Of Moon has been es-
tabiished the police are as much at sea
as they were when the negro died at
Emergency Hospital.
Moon was beaten to death. Il is be-
lieved, with a stone. brick, or some other
weapon, probably a club. His scalp was
torn in a dozen places, his skull was
fractured. his jaw broken. ear torn off,
and hands badly cut. The motive for
such a crime Is but one OF the angles
which are puzzling the police. Moons
clothing showed he made a desperate
fight for his life. He wore no trousers.
coat. vest. shoes. or hat when found. The
police do not know why he should have
been abroad but partially clothed.
Moon recently came to Washington
from Newberry, s. c., where he had
been graduated from a school. He lived
here with a sister. She told the police
she had no idea why any one should
have harmed the boy.

URGES MODEL ARMORY
FOR DISTRICT GUARD
Brig. Gen. A. L. Mills, in Annual Re-
port, Declares Present Facilities
Are Inadequate.

The erection of model armory for
use of the District National Guard is
strongly urged by Brig. Gen. A. L. Mills,
Chief of the Division of Militia Affairs,
War Department. IN his annual report
to the Secretary Of War, made public
yesterday.
Gen. Mills points out that the present
facilities are inadequate and advocates
the passage of the bill introduced during
the last session of Congress appropristing
81. 10000 for the erection of an armory
on the government reservation south Of
B Street north, and between Twelfth
and Fourteenth Streets west.
The bill was passed by the Senate at
the last session. with an amendment pro-
viding that the District bear half the
cost.
The strength of the organized militia
of the District OF Columbia at the time
of the last annual inspection. January
April last, is stated as 1874 officers and
1 1896 enlisted men. being a gain OF eleven
officers and eighty-two men, compared
with the last previous inspection. The
District stands No. / in the relative
order of States and territories In the
proportion OF the strength of its militia
to the number of male inhabitants avail
able for military duty.
With an organized strength Of I,641, as
by the adjutant general, the
number of males of militia age, according
to the Federal census OF 1870 was 7s,349,
being a percentage OF militia OF zoo. In
only seven States was the strength of
the militia in excess Of the requirements
based on available material.

STILL CONSIDERING
LOAN SHARK BILL
Whether Measure viii Be Passed This
Season or Not Depends Upon =
Conference To-day.

Whether the District is to have a new
loan shark bill from the present Con-
gress will be largely determined by the
action of the Senate District Commit
tee this morning. when the Senate con-
ferees on the bill passed by both Houses
at last session report for further In
structions.
The prIcipal point of difference in the
bills passed by House and Senate Is that
the former measure includes under its
provisions all pawnbrokers. The Senate
bill does not include this class OF money
lender, and the fear is expressed by
those who have worked hardest for a
loan shark bill that such a provision
will do more harm than good.
The present law regulating pawn
brokers provides for a stringent system
OF regulation by the police. Pawn
brokers are obliged to report each morn
ing to a special bureau eof the Police
Department the number and description
of all articles pawned in the course of
the preceding twenty-four hours. This
ceptionally efficient Identification system.
has resulted in the recovery OF more
than SO per cent OF stolen articles by
the police, according to officials OF the
department. Under the provisions OF the
proposed law, pawnbrokers are made
subject to the lower intereD rate. Il Is
feared that other police powers OF regu-
lation, which are delegated by the ex-
listing law. but not specifically referred
to in the proposed law. will be lost.
The District Commissioners yesterday
returned with an adverse report the bill
calling for the incorporation of the Vir-
gtnia Terminal Company, which desires
to construct street railway from
Aqueduct Bridge, along NJ Street. New
Jersey and Massachusetts, Avenues, TO
the Union Station.

FINED IN MARYLAND:
CASE TO BE APPEALED
II. Ralph burton, Attorney, Fined
SIS by Justice OF Peace for
Alleged Speeding.

a vigorous protest against the action
of the officers of Hyattsville in arrest
ing automobilists for alleged speeding
through the corporate limits was made
yesterday when II. Ralph Burton. a
prominent Washington attorney, who
was arrested Wednesday and compelled
to leave SIS collateral. appeared before
Justice Of the Peace Herbert J. Mofratt
for a formal hearing.
After hearing Mr.. Burton. his wife, and
driver. Van Nessen, Justice Moffatt fined
the flrst-named sl2 and costs. which
practically amounted to the SIS collateral
Mr. Burton plainly showed that he was
a very angry man. He declined to pay
the fine and gave bond for IT'S payment
with Mr.. Otway r. Zantzinger. president
of the board OF county school commits
sioners and a large real estate owner
here and at Capitol Heights, as surety.
The case was appealed 10 the Mayor and
common council. and IL this body fails
TO remit the fine, Mr.. Burton declares
he will take the case to the Maryland
Court Of Appeals TO test the constitution
ality OF the law under which he was ar
rested.
During the trial Of Mr.. Burton. he and
his chauffeur. Edward Van Nessen. testi-
fled that the speedometer on Mr.. Bur
toms car showed the car was moving
through Hyattsville at a speed Of less
than ten miles. The witnesses testified
further that upon their return to Wash
ington after the arrest, the speedometer
was tested out with an official speed
ometer Of the Metropolitan Police and
proved almost exactly correct, its devil
ation being about one mile in sixty.
John W. Grace, vice president OF Town
shend-Grace Company. Of Baltimore.
who was arrested for alleged speeding in
Hyattsville Wednesday afternoon, failed
TO appear for a hearing. and his SIS was
forfeited.
