Alexander, Clayton, colored, saw Lottij

sight so en roped him that he ran after
the couple, and when he approached them
the other man fled, leaving Lettie to the
mercy of her discarded loer.
Clajton attacked the woman In a most
brutal manner, healing her with hib fi-t
and kicking her several times in the ; b
domen. Th'en he drew a knife from 1 is
pocket anU4Jirust the blade into her side.
Fortunately the wound was but a -upor-J
ficial one. "The woman suffered grj.it ly
from the kioks, and she was in great
distress when brought to the Emergency
Hospital. She will recover, however.
Clavton escaped, but ,xhc police know

Conimissiojiei to Control Parking
To rest in the IMstrict Commissioners
the control of the "Street parking is the
object of ahill intioduced by Senator

of the Inteiior or the chief of engineers
shall be ested in the Com ml si oners, and
they are authori! Unmake such reason
able legalejtlons as To their judgment
may be iHcessary for the ue, occupation,
ani protection of street parking and to
attach to such regulations such penalties
as will secure theii enforcement.
Accused of Shoplifting.
A woman wlw gave her name as Annie
Henning, a Injusekeeper, forty years oid.
was arreMtd yeaterdny evening by De
tective Mutleron the charge of shoplifting.
The woman is alleged to have been caught
In the act of stealing goods from a large
down-town store and was placed under .r
rest by the officer. She was looked up at
No. 1 station.
Committee Not to Be Culled Together
Until After the Hecesss.
Senator McMillan does not intend to call
the District Committee together mini
after the holidays, when he expectb all
the members will be in the city and 'he
active woik ot the committee can begin
in earnest. There are u great many Im
porlunt measures pending, and It is be
li"ed that when the committee once gets
to work it will move along pretty lively.
Meanwhile the chairman is going over
the work of the committee, and the clerk
is getting things in such blmpe that there
win be no reason why speedy results should
nos be reached on measures which have
been referred to the District Committee.

No Chance for It So Lung as There
Is a Treanry Deficit.
There is no pof-ible show for the passage
of the bill providing for the use of Irttts
alcohol in the arte and sciences. The re
port of th" committee which has betjn
investigating this subject all suur-tar
submitted its rerort to the Senate, to
gether with the voluminous testimony thaS
has been taken.
The committee, Mr. Flatt, of Coaneetteat,
chairman of the joint committee, saw,
could agree upon but one thine, and tha8
seemed to be the essential, that there was
D) possibility of pacing such legfclatloH
so long as the reenuos were in their pres
ent condition Mr. Piatt gave the Sen.ue
to understand that it would be folly to
try to do anything that would reduce the
revenues so long as the receipts dhl not
equal the expenditures.
The bill will cieate a defieit-aheuid it
pass-of $10,000,000, aud this is not the
tine to create more deficit. The olef
worry of the Treasury Department is to
fn.il more reenue, not to increase She
deficit, so that there appears to be a
great deal of force in what Mr. Plattsors.
The debate caused some sarcastic pas
sages between Mr. Chandler, who naturally
loves a scrap, and Mr. Hale, who is not
averse to indulging in sarcasm and Utter
repartee. Mr Hoar, who is the chief
promoter of free alcohol iu the arts, be
cause his section of the country is the
largest c msumer, thouzht the bill ought
to pass, aud he suggested that the deflate
could be made good by increasing the tax
on beer one-half dollar u. barrel.
Mr.lloar was ftauk enough to admit, how
eer, that this could not be dune, and as
serted as the reason the political power
of the brewers of the country. There wa
also a reference to the proposition, which
has been suggested in some quarters, to
reduce the tax on whisky to 70 cents a
gallon, but the short discussion along
that line showed very clearly that such
a proposition wohld not meet with favor
among JRepublican leaders. Finally, lha
subject went over without action.

Intel e-t in Pergonal Property.
B.F. Gejei.the llierymau.who has been
In jail since November 2, for refusing
to pav alimony to tils wife, Annie V.Geyer,
during the perdencyflr har suit Tor divorce,

Mrs. Gcyer brought suit against her hus
band last May on the grounds of infidelity.
The court ordered Geyer to pay alimony in
the sum of $75 per mouth until the case
should be decided, but he only made two
payments. He was teveral payments In
arrears last October, and upon his con.
tinued tefusal to pay the amount, the
court rcn-at.ded him to jail. His attorneys
pleaded that $75 was more thn Geyer
was able topay.buthe wag adjudged guilty
or contempt a&d sent doign on the second
ot last month.
Since that time Geyer3 attorneys have
made blionuotia efforts to seeure his re
lease, and tl'ey succeeded yesterday In
securing the order Tor his release from
Judge Hcgiter, upon condition, stipulated
in the order foi release, that Geyer turn
over to his wire his interest in the personal
property now In the house occupied by
Mrs. Geyer. The order also stated that
It has not been shown to the satlsfaotiuu
ot the court that Geyer is unable to pay
the amount or alimony allowed by tlnr
couit.
