THE CLOSING DAY OF THK CAMP?TEMPERANCE DISCUSSED YESTERDAY?HOW THE LIQUOR LAW IS EVADED. Correspondence of The Evening Star. Jackson Grove, August 11th. i esterday was blue Monday in the camp. There was no rush of visitors from either city or country, and the population was about on a j stand still during the day. In the evening a few visitors came out from the cities, and a number of country families came in. Rev. Dr Kilgore, of Hampden, Baltimore county, and Norris, were among the arrivals. At nine o clock a spirited meeting at the stand i, i>" Melvin. The sermon, at l(?. iO was by Rev. Dr. J. L Mills. The subject was temperance, aud the text Isaiah, lviil. 1. It was, he said, the duty of the ministry to cry traffic a*ainst th0 natural sin, the liquor A TEMPERANCE MEETING. In the afternoon a general temperance meet ing was held at the stand, and there was quite a fair attendance. Rev. W.S. Hammond opened with prayer and presided, and Mrs. Grigg, Miss F.Grlgg, Prof. Spurrier, and Mr. Deeble, with organ accompaniment by Miss Hattie Catliell rendered the niuslo. Rev. W. M. Strayer made an address, during which he denied that incon sequence oi the recent campaigu that the tem perance cause had been put back twenty years and asserted that it was pro2ie>sing. Rev. D S. Greenfield took the ground that the liquor dealers, being neither producers nor subservers of the public peace, had no good grouuds to complain of prohibition. At seven o clock the young peoples' meeting J" ttie 16111111 t-he avenue, was led by Rev Mr. Trout. J At /:.t0o clock, Rev. Dr. J.J.Murrav preached froin Matthew xxv.. 10.

Robinson. and the morning prayers by Rev. Dr. J. L. Mills, of Wasniugton. wrere well attended. To-day is the last day of the camp, and there appeared this morning a disposition to make the most of it, tlie ladies especially being out earlj.. A largcnumber of visitors are expeered UMlay After the sermon this morning by Rev. tcred" ayer'e 00,11 muniou will be admin EVADING TIIE LIQUOR LAWS. Since the camp has beeu held here, for eight or nine years past, numbers have brought liquor on the ground for themselves and friends, but it was generally dispensed out in the woods. The local option law prohibits the giving as well as the sale ot liquor, aud consequently the ex pedient was adopted by some of nldiug a bottle in the bushes and breaking off the top of the bush to indicate where it was. The extent this was carried on last year can very plainly be seen now by the dead tops. While the indica tions from empty bottles and broken bushes are that there has beeu much liquor drinkin" this year on the outskirts of the camp, there has not been up to this time a drunken mau seen in camp. The Work on the Great Fall* Dam. A MOTION FOR AN INJUNCTION AGAINST THE GOVERNMENT DENIED. Judges Bond and Morris, in the United States circuit court for the district of Maryland, filed an opinion yesterday denying an injunction in the case of the Great Falls manufacturing com pany of Virginia against Augustus H. Garland attorney general oi" the Uuited States; Win C fcndicott,Secretary of War of the United States* Major (iarret t J. Lydeeker, eniji neer, an d George a. Chittenden and Samuel H. Chitiendeu con tractors for certain work on the Washington city water works. '1 hei bill asked the court to'enjoin the buildin^ of a dam aud other structures across Tonu s Island aud across the Potomac river from Conu's Island to the Virginia shore, and the buildin" of other structures and works in connection therewith on land alleged to belong to the oreat rails company, near the Great Falls of t'ic 1 otonuic river, in Maryland, until the com pany had been paid for the land. The opinion after reviewing the history of the case, concludes as follows: "The officers of the governmcut, knowing that in any event the water supply must be taken from the Great r alls of the Potomac witnout waiting for the completion of the proceedings by which the compensation was to be ascertained, proceeded a* directed bv the act oi Congress, to eonstiuct the dam and other works. Tliis application for an injunction is made some eighteen months after these works were commenced, and after contract have been made, costly cofler-dams put down in the river, aud other expensive preparations made lor pushing the work durinir the summer months. If the injunction should issue now and the work be interrupted until the meeting of Congress, much ot this large expenditure will be sacrificed. Without therefore, undertaking to sanction any rule by which in general property may be taken into possession without compensation first being mule, even when not expressly forbidden by constitutional or legislative provision it does seem to us that this is a case In which 'we should decline to interfere by injunction at this time if the means provided by the act of Con gress to ascertain the amount of compensation are adequate and proper and the payment of the amount when ascertained reasonably nro vlded for and assured. "It Is urged that after the Judgment of the Court of Claims has been obtained the failure of Congress to pass a law appropriating money to pay the Judgment would defeat the com plainant s efforts to get payment for its uroD erty. This is true, but It is also true that Con gress always has heretofore appropriated the money required to pay the Judgments of the Court of Claims, and as it has specially desig nated this court as the tribunal to ascertain ^?at amount shall be paid to the company, nothing but a flagrant breach of good faith th? Payment. The possibility of such action on the part of Congress, under all the*circumstances of this case, we do not think sufficient to Justify the issuing of a preliminary injunction. If the complainant is so advised this cause may be continued, so that hereafter. if It should indeed prove to be true that a cerl tain and adequate provision has not been made for payment of the amount which shaH be as certained V> be due to the complainant, the further uctibn of this court may be invoked." General II F. Butler, of Massachusetts, Is the president of the Great Falls company, ike and ?f ,lhe Na,vy George M. Robeson argued the complainant's case, and Hon. John pre re sen ted by outsiders. The tories say It Is un precedented and unpatriotic for members to decline to serve on a royal commission. The liberals reply that to put only two or three free traders 011 a commission of tweutv persons, when free trade is the orthodox and the irre vocable policy of Kngland is ridiculous. The radicals say that the tories might as well ask men to join a commission to determine whether man is better with or without fetters on his legs. The truth is the plan is a party dodge?a sop to be thrown from conservative platforms to mislead the worklngmen. All the |tosslble tacts are already known by the board of trade. Even the JStamlard denounces the scheme. MR. GLADSTONE'S ILLNESS. A Possibility that the Ex.Premler Will Soon Visit America. Special Cable Dispatch to Thk Evening Star. London, August 11.?In regard to Mr. Glad stone's proposed visit to the United States, I can now confirm what I cabled last Saturday, and add that arrangements were definitely made for Mr. Gladstone to sail for America this week, in company with a well-known American millionaire, who is Interested in English poli tics and acquainted with many English politi cians. The plan was abandoned because Sir Andrew Clark, Mr. Gladstone's physician, abso lutely forbade the voyage at the last moment. I have reason to believe that a visit by Mr. Gladstone to America is by no means an Impos sibility some time in the near future. Dr. Felix Simon, who, with the concurrence of Dr. Clark, is treating Mr. Gladstone's throat in a new and si>ecial manner, pronounces the attection en tirely local, and strictly forbids public speak ing. As Mr. Gladstone is not a very good sailor, Dr. Clark specially feared the effect of seasick ness. There is ground lor anxiety on this account, as it blew heavily from the southwest soon after the yacht Suubeam sailed with Mr. Gladstone last evening, and Is now blowing a gale. I can repeat confidently that no plans or engagements, political or otherwise, have been made yet by Mr. Gladstone. All depends on the results on his health of the present trip.

The bill will require that ail correspondence, both private and general, of these firms shall be submitted to Russian officials. The result of the enforce ment of the measure will be to expose German manufacturing firms carrying on business In Russia to having their business affairs known and made use of by dishonest Russian bureau crats.

A THREATENED RAILROAD WAR. Treaties* Chicago Abeat Chicago, III., August 11.?A morning pa|ter says: East bound passenger affairs are getting oontlnually Into a more entangled condition, and the indications are that the temporary agreement of the Chicago lines abolishing the payment of commissions and outalde offices will soon go to pieces. At a meeting of the gen eral passenger agents of the roads running east from this city, held yesterday, the represent** tlve of the Baltimore and Ohio stated that It was the intention of his company to again place tickets over that road in outside offices. This, of course, would carry with it the pay* ment of commissions, as otherwise the scalpers or brokers would not haudie the tickets. The reason assigned by the Baltimore and Ohio for its change of base is that by the existing ar rangement, which does not tiermlt the placing of tickets In offices at the hotels, it Is losing much business. The representatives of the other line* denied that the Baltimore and Ohio suffered from the present arrangement. They thought that company desired to break np the existing agreement, which could not he longer carried out If it insisted upon placing tlokets in outside offices. The chairmrn was Instructed to telegraph General Passenger Agent Lord, of the Baltimore and Ohio, ana ask him if it wag his intention to withdraw from the agreement as the other roads would consider his placing tickets in outside offices a withdrawal. ilptt.

From all m-counts it was high time that vigorous action ?was taken. Out on the plains, far removed from the ordinary restrictions of law and pub lic opinion, the rich companies did as they pleased, and their pleasure was to get richer and richer by the systematic disregard oi all laws and the rights of the poor. The prophet Isaiah may have had these ruthless land-grab bers in mind when he pronounced a woe upon "them that lay field to field till there be no place that they may be placed alone in the midst of the earth." If so, their particular day of judgment seems to have arrived. An event that may have important conse quences happened last Tharsday, when the em peror of China attained his majority. For the past twelve years the empire has been governed by a regency which has never been found to be a very desirable form oi government. The young emperor is said to be a man of active and liberal mind, with a leaning towards modern ideas. It would be foolish, however, to assume that his advent to the throne will bring any speedy or radical changes In state policy. Col. Stevenson will now have to write a letter to those who endorse unworthy candidates for office. Recently he appointed one F. B. Dun ton postmaster at Center, Lincolnvllle, Maine, on the recommendation of most of the "promi nent citizens." But it now appears that Mr. Lmnton cannot enter at once on the duties of his office from the fact that he is serving a term of imprisonment In Jail for embezzlement. It Is understood that the endorsement of "promi nent citizens*' of that locality will not carry much weight herealter. In spite of the rosy predictions of De Lesseps and votes ot confidence by pliant directors, the shares of the Panama Canal Company are rap Idly falling in cash value, and the governmeut iteadfastly declines to bolster up the enterprise ijy special privileges.

I contracted a fearful case of blood poison In 1883. I was treated by some of the best physicians in At lanta. They used the old remedies of Mercury and Potash, which brought on rheumatism and impaired my digestive organs. Every joint in me was swollen and full of pain. When I was given up to die, my physicians thought it would be a good time to test the virtues of Swift's Specific. When I commenced taking 8. S. 8. tln> physician said I could not live two weeks under the ordinary treatment. He commenced to give me the medicine strictly according to directions, which I continued for several months. I took nothing else, und commenced to Improve from the very first. Soon the rheumatism left me, my appetite became all right, and the ulcers, which the doctor said were tlie most frightful he had ever seen, began to heal, and by the first of October, 1884,1 was a well man again. I am stronger now than I ever was before, and weigh more. 8. S. S. has saved me from an early grave. LEM McCLENDON. Lem McClendon has been In the employ of the Chess-Carley Company for some years, and I know the above statements to be true.

NEW York, August 11.?No murder which has been committed In Brooklyn for years has caused so much excitement and comment as that of the shooting of Albert R. Herrick in his residence, 839 Pearl street, yesterday after noon. The house where the shooting occurred is an object of attention to-day to the people who pass it. Many theories are advanced as to who aid the killing, some holding that it was the step-son. while others maintain that it was a burglar who was caught by Mr. Herrick, and who shot him down to eifect his escape. Mer rick's stepson, Armstong, is still in custody. The police are hard at work on the case, but so far nothing new has been developed. Arm strong says he was not at his stepfather's house during the afternoon, and accounts for his movements. The autopsy on Herrick's body to-day showed that the ball had entered his heart.

HALL rOR A MEETING?A QUESTION OF COLOR. The barbers' anion, which is an organization composed of white and colored men, advertised to hold a meeting last evening in the hall con trolled by the Grand Army of the Republic and used by the latter for its meetings. They had engaged the hall from the janitor and offered to pay in advance, but were told that the money could be paid on the evening of the meeting. When the barbers assembled at the entrance of the hall, on L street, near 7th, last evening they were Informed by the janitor that they could not occupy the hall because there were colored members in the organization, and that he had been instructed by the hall committee to say that the rule not to rent the hall to col ored organizations would be enforced in this Instance. "We felt very much aggrieved at this," re marked Mr. Ford, the secretary of the barbers' union, to a .Star reporter this morning. "The hall had been engaged, and we did not suppose that there was any difficulty about our occu pying it until we had gone there to at tend the meeting. We were surprised that the Grand Army would draw a color distinct ion when we do not in our organization. We admit members without regard to color, the only condition being that thev must be barbers. There was nothing left for us to do, but to find some other place, and after a short delay we went to Daly s Hall, at the corner of 7th and O streets, where we held our meeting." A representative ot the Grand Army la speak ing to a Star reporter about the matter, said: merely a question of business with us. w e have a rule not to rent the hall to colored organizations, and this Is done not on account of the color, but simply for the reason that if we allow the hall to be used by colored organiza tions we cannot rent It to white organizations, it is a public ball and we want to get as much revenue from it as possible, and from a business standpoint only have we adopted this rule. The nail is not even rented to colored posts of the Grand Army." ??ri?nsChiirge Against a Former Wash* Ingtonian. A special dispatch to the Baltimore Sun from Wilmington, Del., August 10, says: "Wm. B. Barton, a young lawyer, who came here a year ago from \V ashington, D. C., has been arrested nere ,on the charge of making a felonious assault on Mrs. Clayton, a married woman, narton was her counsel, and she charges that the assault was committed in his office two weeks ago." The court records here show that a Wm. B. ""ton was admitted to the bar here on motion of Mr. Critcher on March 19th, 1883. The Old Carroll Place. the purchasers intend to improve the PROPERTY. The purchase of the old Carroll property, on Capitol Hill, by ex-Representative E. John Ellis, of Louisiana, which was announced in yesterday's Star, has given rise to much spec ulation as to what the purchaser intended to do with the property. A reporter of The Star called upon Mr. Ellis this morning and asked him what his plans were in regard to his new acquisition. In response Mr. Ellis said: ?I am Interested with several parties in the purchase of the DudJlngton propertv, and mv name is used as the purchaser. We contem platebringing the property to grade and im proving it as rapidly as possible. It is strictly a private matter, and I don't see how it got in the papers, nor oning.
