V'enesuelanm Affairs.
According to Minister Andrade of Vene
zuela, who has just .returned to this city
from Deer Park, the status of the British
Venezuelan question remains unchanged.Re
cent advices received at the Venezuelan 1e
gation give the text of the official resolution
by which Venezuela confirms to an Ameri
can company a vast tract of land south of
the Orinoco and near the scene of the Brit
ish contention. The resolution sets forth
that this grant was originally made to the
lilanoa company of the United States, but
was subsequently transferred to the Turn
bull company, in which English Interests
predominated. But In view of the fact that
the Turnbull company has not proceeded
with the development of the concession, the
resolution recites that the Turnbull grant
Is canceled and all rights of the original,
Manoa company are revived .and renewed.
This given the new American syndicate the
name terms under which the Manoa com
pany operated.
Exsaination of Cadeta.

AFFAIRS IN GEORGETOWN
could Mm West Have llem-aved Yexw
day?
The Arrival of the Patrol Wagon
Caused a Difeuenee -of Opa
ion-Other Notes.
There was much talk here yesterday t
the effect that if the police had obeyed
promptly a teleihone request to bring a
physician in 'the patrol when it was
sent for there was but -little doubt
that Mrs. Martha West, who jumped over
board near the Aqueduct bridge, could have
been revived. As it was, thete was no one
to properly treat her when brought to
shore, and after a few gasps she expired.
The police say this about the matter:
The first informatiop they had at the sta
tion of the drowning was received through
the call box. It was to the effect'that a
woman had been drowned and the patrol
was wanted.
Just as the patrol passed out of the
yard there came a call through the
'phone to send a physician with the wagon.
as the woman was not yet dead.
The patrol was beyond bailing distance,
however, by this time and no physicians
were near.
Detective Frank Burrows, who got there
with the wagon, says that even If a physi
clan had been brought along with tWe pa
trol he would have been too late to render
assistance, for the woman's mouth was
then frothy and in a condition that long
years of ekperience with victims of the
river had told him was beyond the physi
clan's . power. Though there was a gasp
or two, he says this was no evidence that
there was a possibility of resuscitation.
The river had done its work thoroughly,
and no human power was strong enough
to undo it after the woman had been
brought on shore.
The coroner yesterday viewed the re
mains at the seventh precinct morgue and
gave a certificate of death from drowning,
in accordance with the testimony of wit
nesses.
A ghastly Incident of the day in connec
tion with the drowning was the visit of a
fhotographe' to the morgue. He first re
quested the lieutenant to allow him to take
a picture of the cotpse, but was referred
to the husband of the deceased, believing
that a refcsal would result. West, how
ever. said he "didn't care," and with as
sistance the corpse was strapped to a plain
board, set ulrtight and photographed. It
was a shocking, ghastly sight, the bare
surroundings contrilbuting to it. The sev
enth precinct morgue was never finished,
and is, in fact, nothing but a cellar. - ,
Lawn Party.
At the home of 'Capt. French. over in
Langley, a very successful lawn party was
held yesterday for the benefit of the Lang
ley Episcopal Church. Miss Fanny Mack
all had charge of the affair. The George
town Mandolin and Guitar Club members
were present and contributed much to the
enjoyment of4the occasion through their
masterly execution.
A Presentatin.
The Linthicum Students have added at a
formal meeting Mr. John C. Lewis to their
membership list. Mr. Lewis is a graduate
of the elocution department of the institute
and has demonstrated his ability to hold
his own with the students. His work has
been commended highly. After the busi
ness meeting on Wednesday the students,
as an evidence of their appreciation of the
valuable services of Mr. Robert Lowe, who
for two years has managed the organisa
tion, presented him with a very handsome
and complete make-up box. Mr. Lowe
leaves for Toronto, Canada, Tuesday next
to join the forces of Sol Smith Russell, -the
eminent comedian. In this company will
be three other Washington favorites, Al
fred Hudson, Chas. Mackay and Mrs. Fan
nie Addison Pitt of the late National Thea
ter Stock Company. Mr. Russell will strike
Washington on February 10. The principal
plays of his repertoire will be "The Rivals,"
-"Heir-at-Law" and "Every Day Man,"
with a nsw play shortly after Christmas,
Faith Tent.
Faith Tent, No. 31, I. O. Rechabites, held
a Lawn party last ' evening at 26th street
and Pennsylvania avenue. On the grounds
was presented an interesting program.
There was fancy dancing by Miss Blanche
Riley and musical selections by Messrs.
Edw. Henshaw, B. T. Sullivan and W. S.
Riley of the South Washington Orchestra.
The whole affair was a big success. The
sales were large and the enjoyment con
tinuous.. The decorations were a very
noticeable feature of the occasion. The
ladies tn charge, and to whom much of the
success is due, were Mrs. Riley, Mrs.
Golden, Mrs. Waters,. Mrs. Barr and Mrs.
Shaw.
Judge Cole's Decision.
To the E-litor of The Evenag Star:
The property holders and residents ' on
New York avenue have been looking for
ward with hope to a decision from Judge
Cole which would have the effect of com
pelling the Eckington company to give
some more satisfactory transit than the in
termittent, uncertain and Inconvenient
present trolley system. It is, therefore,
with some amazeme'ht that we find him,
after deciding the trolley to te illegal, vir
tually suggesting suspending the sentence
Lecause the poles are only to "be removed
as early as that can reasonably be done
without inconvenience to private property
or persons." Surely his honor must have
meant this in a Pickwicklan sense. What
inconvenience could it be to have the un
sightly gibbets removed from the front
of our residences or to have a decent reg
ular horse-car service in place of the pres
ent intermittent service, with its long
intervals between cars and Its frequent
changes from trolley to horse cars. There
Is one point which our Commissioners and
the lawyers in the case do not seem to
alppreciate, that the opposition so freely
expressed by the residents along the line
is not only to the unsightly afnd dangerous
trolley, but to the unserviceable manage
ment of the road as a means of travel. As
a property holder on New York avenue, I
know that my property has been depre
ciated by the insuticlent service of this
same Eckington line. Last week, having
occasion to go from the treasury to the
short distance .of New York avenue and
1st street northwest, it required forty-flye
minutes to make the round trip. Our slow
est horse-cafr lines woujd make it in half
the time. I had .to wahit on New York
avenue northwest ten minutes for an Eck
ington car, and at one time, in the whole
distance between 7th street west and 4th
street east (over a mile), there was but a
single car visible. Yet this is the road
whIch Judge Cole, in his decision, sug
gests that Its illegal trolley may have to be
continued for a time lest Its abandon
ment should "be an inconvenience to pri
vate property or persons."
There is one point, however, which the
public fully'comprehend, even If the Com
missioners and courts fail to appreciate.
All the trolley people ask for is just what
they have so far been permitted to have
delay. If they can only bridge over their
ilegal trolley until Congress convenes they
may bring influence to bear to fasten this
unsightly nuisance on this city. The fight
with the Eckington line is the contest with
the whole trolley system. Let this road
maintain its hold and the entering wedge
is attained.
But there is another point the public
do not understand-why other roads, like
the Metropolitan, are compelled, at the
expense of millions of dollars, to put their
ten miles of track underground, while this
Eckington line, with only about two miles
(within the city limIts) to alter, still ille
gally, as Judge Cole himself has decided,
holds the fort with its trolley standard
waving undaunted in the air. If this is
not favoritIsm, what is it, and a still more
important question, why is it? J. C.

JUDGE JACKSON DEAD
Never Recovered From Hie Last Trip
to Washington.
TKE UIE OIIThICAE
Discussing the Matter of a Suc
cessor.
SKETCH' OF HIS CAREER
Howell Edmunds Jackson, associate jus
tice of the Supreme Court of the United
States, died at his residence, at West
Mesde, six miles west of Nashville, Tenn.,
yesterday afternoon. In the sixty-fourth
year of his age, of consumption.
Judge Jackson had been in failing health
for the past four years, but it has only
been in the past eight or ten months that
the progress of the disease began to cause
his family and friends uneasiness.
Last year he went on a lengthy trip
to the far west In search of health. Later
he went to Thomasville.. Ga., where it was
hoped the mild and yet bracing climate
would restore his one-time vigorous con
stitution.
The trip did him little good, and after a
time he was brought home. At his old
home Judge Jackson seemed to Improve
slightly until he came to Washington to
sit in the second hearing of the income tax
cnsss. He stood that trying trip only fair
ly well, and after his return home appeared
to lose strength rapidly.
Nevertheless Judge Jackson never look
to his bed until last Wednesday week.
Since that time his family and friends
realized that the end was near, and his
death yesterday was not unexpected, 's
dispatches to yesterday's Star indicated.
His Last Trip to Washington.
The last time Judge Jackson was in
Washington was on the occasion of the re
hearing In the income tax cades last May.
He had been absent from the city and
from the bench since the preceding fall,
when, soon after convening of the October
term of the court, he had been compelled
to go south on account of his rapidly de
clining health. During his absence there
had been contradictory 'reports as to his
physical condition, but the prevailing opin
ion among his colleagues on the bench vas
that he would never again be ..ble to re
sume his seat.
Mr. Jackson had the reputation in this
city, and especially about the Supreme
Court, of being very sensitive concerning
any discussion of his health In the public
press, and he referred to the subject very
sparingly in his own conversation. The
other members of the court were therefore
poorly advised as to his condition. This
state of affairs Is said to have been the
reason for the equivocal character of the
announcement of the decision to grant a
rehearing in the income tag cases, which
of necessity depended upon Judge Jackson's
presence.
He was in Washington on the occasion of
the rehearing for several days and gave his
attention assiduously to the income tax
cases. He sat through the argument which
continued for three days, took part in the'
consultation of the court, and, when the
day arrived for the announcement of the
decision, not only listened patiently to the
opinions of most of the other members of
the court, but delivered a vigoraus opinion
of his own in support of the validity of the
law.
This occurred on the 20th of May, and
was his last public appearance. He return
ed to his home in Tennessee late in May.
When Judge Jackson was here on 'his od
casion it was, evident to all who came in
contact with him that life was slowly but
surely ebbing away, and that the effort he
made in performing his duties In - that
emergency was made at the expense of his
vitality.
no1w He Was Eateesmed.
As Senator and justice of the Supreme
Court, Mr. Jackson had resided in Wash
ington about eight years. His associates
here were confined largely to his colleagues
on the bench and in the Senate chamber.
By them he was universally esteemed as a
man of high moral worth and rich intellec
tual attainments, as was evinced in nothing
so much as In his appointment to the Su
preme bench by President Harrison and his
confrmation by a republican Senate, not
withstanding he was a democrat.
Judge Jaekson's Career.
Justice Jackson was born in Paris, Tenn.,
April 8, 1832 so that he was in his sixty
third year at the time of his death, Justice
Jackson was a classical scholar, graduating
from the West Tennessee College in 1848.
He studied law two years at the University
of -Virginia, and In Jackson, under his.
kinsmen, Judges A. W. 0. Totten and il
ton Brown; graduated from the Lebanon
Law School In 1856, in which year he 1o
cated in Jackson and engaged in the prac
tice of his profession; moved to Memphis .in
185'., where he continued the practice of
law; served on the supreme bench by ap
pointment on two occasions, and was once
a prominent candidate for supreme judge
before the nominating convention; relocated
In Jackson in 1876; was elected to the state
house of representatives in 18810 cn the state
credit platform; -was elected to the United
States Senate as a democrat in 1881, and
serired till April 12, 1888; was appointed
United States circuit judge by President
Cleveland, and nominated for associate jus
tice by President Ifarrison; was confirmed
by the Senate February 18, 1803, and enter
ed upon the duties of the office March 4,
1803.
Matter of Sueeessor.
When Justice Jackson was so seriously-ill
this sprIng that he was not expected to re
cover the name of his successor was con
siderably speculated in. The idea was mug-1
gested by some that the President would
again name Messrs. Peckham or Hornblow
er of New York,- while the selection of a
man from the west fell to Don Dickinson.
Postmaster General Wilson was strongly
spoken of as among the possIbilities, whIle
the majority of opinion was that Secretary
Carlisle could have' the place if he wanted
It.'- Mr. Carlisle would be eligible, as he
would be appointed from the same district
that the death of Justice Jackson has made
vacant,
Presidsent Cleveland last night received
news of the death of Justice .Jackson. On
learning of the fact he said: "The country
will keenly feel the loss of so prominent
and able a ma'n."

Will you allow me, through the eslunmn
f your excellent payr, to address a mew
tarnest words to Brother Brooks In bael[
rf Washington Heights and vicinity? A
was hoped by the residents of Warhington
Heights that the opportunity aforded 1W
the careless use of the pistol by Min.
Plagler, though Inexpressibly sad in its to
,uits, might be improved by parents, pas
tore and all others interested in good secesi9
as a wholesome lesson to a class of vety
=ndesirable visitors to this rgion. Thi
lesson Is undoubtedly robbed of its force by
the remarks of Rev. Brooks at the fumerel
:eremonies of young Green. so far as t
words have the power to rob it. The pop
er expression of sympathy with his be
reaved parents and the boys cosepairs
lid not certainly require the minimising of
mrime. The facts are, as witnesmed by thr
soys themselves before the coroner's juy,
that they went to Gen. Flagler's for the
purpose of getting the pears. There is set;
r resident on Washington Heights that does
cot know that it is next to Impossible IS
have even a aample of his fruit ripen upn
the tree. Some time since I had a yong
pear tree, the quality of whose fruit I was
mnxious to test when fully ripe, and wateh
d it very closely until one fatal Sunday at
ernoon I discovered some eight or ten
ioys after the pears. As soon as discovered
they lost no time in getting beyon. my
reach. I followed them some aistance, If
mossible. to ascertain who they wrere. This
wras a fatal mistake, for upon returning-ia
:he house some four or five larger bsoys bas
ened from the yard. and with them all my
ears. They did not leave me even a mam
,le. This experience is repeated from year
o year, and this is what our Brother
Brooks calls an lndiscretion, and even inti
nates It Is parallel to the act of our Savior
n plucking the ears of corn on the Sabbath
lay. I remember of reading, when a boy.
the confession of a convict, In which hes
state.1 his career of crime began when he
stole a pin from his companion. As he
ooked back over his years of crime, with
ies moral sen'ses quickened by tie ness
prospect of punishment, he could cloelry
tee that that act was statling. Brother
Brooks might call It an Indiscretion. The
ad facts Is attested by our police courts
hat we are having educated in our midst a
rlass of young crimninals who will surely
'urnish subjects for our penitentiaries, and
ven the gallows itself. Their mornl menses
tre at the lowest ebb, and contamnmation
tnd evil influence infest their whole moral
teing. as the germs of smallpox the clothing

mee all true men and all good citisens need
