The compensation of enumerators is now fixed as follows: "In subdivisions, where the superintendent of census shall deem such allowance sufflcien t, an allowance not exceeding 2 cents for each liv¬ ing inhabitant, 2 cents for each death re¬ ported, 15 cents for each farm, and 20 cents for each establishment of productive industry enumerated and returned, and for each sur¬ viving soldier or widow returned 6 cents mar be given in full compensation for all services.' The schedules of inquiry are to be the same as those in the last census with the addition of a special schedule of inquiry, according to; sucn form as the superintendent of the census may prescribe, which shall contain the names, organisations and length of service of those who served in the army, navy, or marine corps of the United States in the war of the rebellion, and who are survivors at the time of the taking of the census, and the widows of soldiers, sailors or marines. It is also provided that the population schedule shall include an inquiry as to the number of negroes, mulattoes, quad¬ roons and octoroons. Inquiry is also to be made as to the recorded indebtedness of private corporations and indiriduals. The ap¬ propriation for taking the census has been in¬ creased from ?6.000,000 to >6,400,000. MR. WEBB'S NOMINATION. Protest of the Republican Invincible* Against its Confirmation by the Senate. The Republican inrincibles, of this city, hare adopted a statement of their risws concerning the nomination of Mr. Webb to succeed him- self as District Commissioner. Copies of this statement were to-day sent in the form of a pro¬ test to the republican members of the Senate with a brief letter from Dr. E. A. Adams, presi¬ dent of the club, calling attention to the con¬ tents of the paper. Following is the tex t of the statement: Jaxuaby 22,1889. To the Honorable Republican Senatort of the United Stales: The Republican inrincibles of the city of Washington, in regular meeting assembled, do hereby most earnestly and respectfully protest against the confirmation of the nomination of Wm. B. Webb as a Commissioner of the Dis¬ trict of Columbia for a second term, and we place our protest upon the following grounds: First. Because we are satisfied that such nomination is against the will of a large ma- of the people of the District of Colum- Second. Because in defiance of this well- known sentiment the President made the ap- Sointment arbitrarily and in unnecessary haste; enying the people of the District an opportu¬ nity to be heard as to their wishes and upon the merits of the appointment, and declining to consider petitions expressive of the people's will upon the subject. Third. Because as the board is now consti¬ tuted, and will be if Mr. Webb should be con¬ firmed. more than one-half of the District in population, wealth and territory is practically unrepresented thereon.all the members of the present board being residents of a section em¬ braced in the northwestern part of the city, west of 13th street, instead of being distributed as they should be to properlr represent the whole people and all sections of the District of Columbia justly and fairly. And in this con¬ nection we submit that the force of this branch of our protest is well illustrated by the fact that Congress during the existence of the pres¬ ent board, of whicn Mr. Webb is the nominal head, in order to secure a just and proper ap¬ plication of the public moneys to the improve¬ ment of certain streets, or avenues, remote from that portion of the city where the mem¬ bers of the present board reside, has been com¬ pelled to direct and control the same by specific legislation. Fourth. Because we deem the re-appoint¬ ment of Mr. Webb to this important office to be now singularly unfit, when at this time it is well known to the President and all in author¬ ity that he is, in his official capacity, under¬ going an investigation by Congress for gross abuses .if not offenses.connected with the disbursement of the public moneys of the Dis¬ trict of Columbia in the purchase of sites for school-houses therein, and of which transac¬ tions sufficient is already known, whatever may be the result of the congressional investigation, to show that the public interests will be much safer for the next four year* in the hands of some one better adapted to the duties of an executive office. Fifth. Because we regard this action on the part of President Cleveland as an attempt to forestall an appointment which belongs pecu¬ liarly to the incoming republican administra¬ tion, and as at no time during his administra¬ tion of the office he now holds has Mr. Webb developed or demonstrated that he was a re¬ publican or in sympathy with that party to which he was appointed to be a Commissioner, we respectfully submit to a republican Senate the request that instead of sucn an inheritance from a democratic administration, the republi¬ cans of this District may bs farored by the ap¬ pointment of a pronounced republican to suc- cecd Mr. Webb, made by a pronounoed repub¬ lican administration and based upon the will of the people. The Line of Water Street. A DECISION 15 TBS FOUCB COCBT. To-day, in the Police Court, Mr. Charles D. Nicolai, of Nicolai Bros., coal dealers, near the Long bridge, was charged by Assistant Build¬ ing Inspector Holmes with violating the build¬ ing regulations, it being alleged that he erected a frame office within the fire limits without having first obtained a permit so to do. Mr. Nicolai obtained a permit to erect the building south of Water street, beyond the Are limits, and it was claimed by the prosecution that the building was erected north of that street. The defendant claimed that the building was erected south of Water street, in compliance with the permit A map of the city was pro¬ duced. and the judge decided the case against the defendant The property on which the office was built is now in the civil courts for a decision as to the boundary of Water street A fine of 910 or thirty days was imposed. Mr. Johnson, for the defendant noted an appeal in order to have the question of the location of Water street determined. No Cask or Smallpox Washijiotok.. During the pest few days many residents of Southeast Washington have been badly fright¬ ened because of a rumor afloat to the effect that smallpox was preralent in that locality. How the rumor started is not known, but the rumor gained credence among the naval au¬ thorities. and at their reauest Dr. Pool, of the health offioe, was sent by Dr. Townshend to make an investigation. Humor had it that there were cases in Mark's and Lewis' alleys, and the doctor made a house-to-heuse inspec¬ tion, but failed to And even a case of chicken- Ex. He, therefore, reported that the rumor d ao foundation, and that there is aot a single case of the disease in the city. Cohvictbd or Pittt Labczkt..In the Police Court this morning Byron Davis and Frank Johnson, colored, who are under a plea of guilty of housebreaking awaiting sentence in the Criminal Court, were arraigned on seven informations for petty laroeney. They pleaded not guilty, bnt were convicted in each ease and sentence was suspended. They will be called in the Police Court on Saturday for sentence. A memorial protesting against the admis¬ sion of New Mexico into the Union and signed by the leading citizens of Albuqnarqae has been forwarded to Congress. the senate tariff bill. PMMd la Chat Body by a Vote of 82 to 80.Am eadmeata Adopted. The Senate tariff bill baa, to far aa the Senate to concerned, been dtopoeed of, and there to nowhere a happier crowd of legislator* than the Senator* who hare been wreat ling day and night with the great question of tariff, and who hare at laat thrown off the burden which haa weighed them down for eo long. Ye*t*r- <toy WM a bu*y day in the Senate. There were a large nnmber of amendment* offered, and np to the hour of 6 o'clock they were debated. On motion of Mr. Sherman, a proviso, or intebest to amebican rnmnx, waa adopted. It provide* that freah fish caught by American fishermen in the high *ea* or in the open water* between Canada and the United State* *hall not be claaaed a* importa¬ tion*, and ahall not, therefore, be *nbject to the duty of half-a-cent per pound. Mr. Eusti* offered amendment* looking to reduction of duty from 1J{ to 1W cent* per pound on sugar graded between No*. IS and 20, Dutch stand¬ ard, and on all above No. 30 from 2 to IK cents per pound. These amendment* were rejected, and two democrat*.Mr. Colquitt, of Georgia, and Mr. Gibson, of Louisiana. VOTED WITH WITH THE BEPUBLICAX8. Mr. Reagan made an effort to have inserted in the bill a clause providing for the imposition and oollection of a graduated lnoome tax, but he failed. Mr. Stanford waa more fortunate with hi* amendment. It waa an administrative section, and it regulate* tne importation of .pirit* and reduces the internal revenue taxes on grape wine* and brandiea to 0 cents per gal¬ lon. The section to identical with the bill making grape brandy free for the fortification of *weet wine* for exportation, reported by finance committee of the Forty-ninth Con¬ gress and which was passed by the Senate. MB. CALL CUT orr. When 5 o'clock arrived Mr. Call had the floor, and wa* offering amendment* to the proposed rate* of duty on wine*, and quite naturally he desired to *ay something about the amend- menta. He made no speeche*, however, for Senator Ingalls, after a short, sharp contest, insisted upon the carrying out of the unani¬ mous agreement that all debate should ccase at 6 o'clock. Shutting off his oratory did not .top Mr. Call in the mntter of offering amend¬ ments. As soon a* one was knocked down he set up another, and so it went on until the amendment* had all been voted out of sight. A vote upon Mr. Saulsbury's new section, pro¬ viding for the confiscation by the government of all profite of corporations in excess of 10 per cent, defeated the proposition. On one amendment, reducing the duty on hoop-iron MB. PLUMB VOTED WITH THE DEMOCBAT*. Mr. Brown offered several amendment* to in¬ crease the duty on rice, but none of them were accepted. A new rice section increasing the duty was, however, inserted in the bill upon motion of Mr. Aldrich. Mr. Plumb endeavored to secure the impo¬ sition of a 25 per cent ad valorem duty on raw unmanufactured silk, but he was in a minority. He succeeded, though, in getting an adminis¬ trative section adopted which provides for the ESTABLISHMENT OP A CUSTOM* COMMISSION. The commission is to have its headquarters at the Treasury department, and to to consist of five experts, not more than three of them to be of one political party, and the salary of each is to be 97,600 per annum and traveling ex¬ penses. On Mr. Allison's amendment, making an in¬ crease of 20 per cent in the duties on oranges, lemons, and limes, there was almost unanimity, only seven democrats voting against it. THE VOTE PASSING THE BILL. It wa* after 8 o'clock when the bill waa read the third time.

I One of the Boyi Who Robbed the Gipsy Camp. IOW DETECTIVE BAIT CAME HEAB LORINO THE cuaTODY or the bot ur the capital or vib- oinia.confession or the peisoneb.he has sebvbd tebms in the femtentiabt. Detective Raff went to Richmond Monday night to bring here for trial the colored boy, Ben Thomaa, alia* Jim Jones, charged with complicity in the robbery of 9700 from Tom Stanley at the gipsy camp. The grand jury waa not in *e**ion at the time and the officer took with him a warrant from the Police Court charging the priaoner with the robbery. When the officer arrived in Richmond without a re¬ quisition (the proper paper*) he informed the authorities that he had a United State* war¬ rant. The officer attached so much import¬ ance to the fact that the paper was a "United States warrant" that the prisoner was taken be¬ fore a police Justice and given a partial hear¬ ing. A colored attorney made his appearance as the prisoner's counsel and made A HABD FIGHT FOE HI* CLIENT. Another attorney volunteered his service* and rendered what assistance he conld to the detective. The colored attorney's points were well taken and the justice declined to surrender the prisoner on the warrant. During the de¬ bate counsel became excited and it was thought for a time that they would come to blows. De¬ tective Raff and a Richmond detective took the judge's advice and went before the governor, who was undecided as to what action to take. The attorney-general was sent for and the offi¬ cers and counael were told to return to the state house at 1 o'clock. Detective Raff then went before United States Commissioner Pleas¬ ants and iwore out a warrant charging the prisoner with burglary. The case was heard and the prisoner was turned over to Detective Raff, who was deputized by the marshal to bring him to this city. The prisoner's attor¬ ney returned to the governor and waited for the return of the officer*, but Detective Raff had been given the prisoner and it waa too late to save his client He applied for a writ of habeas corpus, but was unable to get it because the prisoner could not be found. CONFESSION OF THE PBISONEB. When the officer started with the prisoner to return to this city, Thomaa made a full con¬ fection. He said that he and Monroe Trice visited Sanley'* tent while the latter wa* away. Trice watched while he (Ben) took the money from under the carpet. There wa* gold and greenback*. They cnt aero** the country to¬ ward the reservoir and there they divided the paper money. They got on a 7ta street ear ana eame to the city. HOW THE BOT* GOT AWAT FBOM TEX CTTT. Then they got in a brick wagon and crowed the Long bridge on their way to Alexandria. While croMing the bridge tljey divided the gold money. They walked from the brick yara* to Alexandria, where they took the ateamer Leary for Norfolk. When Trice waa arrested on the wharf in Norfolk Ben aav* he went around behind a warehouse and tnrew hi* re¬ volver in the river. That afternoon he took the train for Riehmond. When captui*d 9187 waa taken from him. Thomas waa identified a* being a priaoner who spent three year* in the Richmond penitentiary. This morning he wa* taken to the Police Court and given a hearing. He pleaded not guilty. Judge Miller heard the testimony of Stanley and Detective Raff and held the prisoner in the ram of 9600 for the action of tne grand jury. Joha Waaamaker'* Sucoeaa.

MR. WEBB'S NOMINATION.Protest of the Republican Invincible*Against its Confirmation by the Senate.The Republican inrincibles, of this city, hare

adopted a statement of their risws concerningthe nomination of Mr. Webb to succeed him-self as District Commissioner. Copies of thisstatement were to-day sent in the form of apro¬test to the republican members of the Senatewith a brief letter from Dr. E. A. Adams, presi¬dent of the club, calling attention to the con¬tents of the paper. Following is the tex t ofthe statement:

Jaxuaby 22,1889.To the Honorable Republican Senatort of the

United Stales:The Republican inrincibles of the city of

Washington, in regular meeting assembled, dohereby most earnestly and respectfully protestagainst the confirmation of the nomination ofWm. B. Webb as a Commissioner of the Dis¬trict of Columbia for a second term, and weplace our protest upon the following grounds:First. Because we are satisfied that suchnomination is against the will of a large ma-

of the people of the District of Colum-

Second. Because in defiance of this well-known sentiment the President made the ap-Sointment arbitrarily and in unnecessary haste;enying the people of the District an opportu¬nity to be heard as to their wishes and upon the

merits of the appointment, and declining toconsider petitions expressive of the people'swill upon the subject.Third. Because as the board is now consti¬

tuted, and will be if Mr. Webb should be con¬firmed. more than one-half of the District inpopulation, wealth and territory is practicallyunrepresented thereon.all the members of thepresent board being residents of a section em¬braced in the northwestern part of the city,west of 13th street, instead of being distributedas they should be to properlr represent thewhole people and all sections of the District ofColumbia justly and fairly. And in this con¬nection we submit that the force of this branchof our protest is well illustrated by the factthat Congress during the existence of the pres¬ent board, of whicn Mr. Webb is the nominalhead, in order to secure a just and proper ap¬plication of the public moneys to the improve¬ment of certain streets, or avenues, remotefrom that portion of the city where the mem¬bers of the present board reside, has been com¬pelled to direct and control the same by specificlegislation.Fourth. Because we deem the re-appoint¬ment of Mr. Webb to this important office to

be now singularly unfit, when at this time it iswell known to the President and all in author¬ity that he is, in his official capacity, under¬going an investigation by Congress for grossabuses .if not offenses.connected with thedisbursement of the public moneys of the Dis¬trict of Columbia in the purchase of sites forschool-houses therein, and of which transac¬tions sufficient is already known, whatever maybe the result of the congressional investigation,to show that the public interests will be muchsafer for the next four year* in the hands ofsome one better adapted to the duties of anexecutive office.

Fifth. Because we regard this action on thepart of President Cleveland as an attempt toforestall an appointment which belongs pecu¬liarly to the incoming republican administra¬tion, and as at no time during his administra¬tion of the office he now holds has Mr. Webbdeveloped or demonstrated that he was a re¬publican or in sympathy with that party towhich he was appointed to be a Commissioner,we respectfully submit to a republican Senatethe request that instead of sucn an inheritancefrom a democratic administration, the republi¬cans of this District may bs farored by the ap¬pointment of a pronounced republican to suc-cecd Mr. Webb, made by a pronounoed repub¬lican administration and based upon the willof the people.

to 80.Am eadmeata Adopted.The Senate tariff bill baa, to far aa the Senate

to concerned, been dtopoeed of, and there tonowhere a happier crowd of legislator* thanthe Senator* who hare been wreatling day andnight with the great question of tariff, andwho hare at laat thrown off the burden whichhaa weighed them down for eo long. Ye*t*r-<toy WM a bu*y day in the Senate. There werea large nnmber of amendment* offered, and npto the hour of6 o'clock they were debated. Onmotion of Mr. Sherman, a proviso,

or intebest to amebican rnmnx,waa adopted. It provide* that freah fish caughtby American fishermen in the high *ea* or inthe open water* between Canada and theUnited State* *hall not be claaaed a* importa¬tion*, and ahall not, therefore, be *nbject tothe duty of half-a-cent per pound. Mr. Eusti*offered amendment* looking to reduction ofduty from 1J{ to 1W cent* per pound on sugargraded between No*. IS and 20, Dutch stand¬ard, and on all above No. 30 from 2 to IK centsper pound. These amendment* were rejected,and two democrat*.Mr. Colquitt, of Georgia,and Mr. Gibson, of Louisiana.

VOTED WITH WITH THE BEPUBLICAX8.Mr. Reagan made an effort to have inserted inthe bill a clause providing for the impositionand oollection of a graduated lnoome tax, buthe failed. Mr. Stanford waa more fortunatewith hi* amendment. It waa an administrativesection, and it regulate* tne importation of.pirit* and reduces the internal revenue taxeson grape wine* and brandiea to 0 cents per gal¬lon. The section to identical with the billmaking grape brandy free for the fortificationof *weet wine* for exportation, reported byfinance committee of the Forty-ninth Con¬gress and which was passed by the Senate.

MB. CALL CUT orr.When 5 o'clock arrived Mr. Call had the floor,

and wa* offering amendment* to the proposedrate* of duty on wine*, and quite naturally hedesired to *ay something about the amend-menta. He made no speeche*, however, forSenator Ingalls, after a short, sharp contest,insisted upon the carrying out of the unani¬mous agreement that all debate should ccaseat 6 o'clock. Shutting off his oratory did not.top Mr. Call in the mntter of offering amend¬ments. As soon a* one was knocked down heset up another, and so it went on until theamendment* had all been voted out of sight.A vote upon Mr. Saulsbury's new section, pro¬viding for the confiscation by the governmentof all profite of corporations in excess of 10per cent, defeated the proposition. On oneamendment, reducing the duty on hoop-iron

MB. PLUMB VOTED WITH THE DEMOCBAT*.Mr. Brown offered several amendment* to in¬

crease the duty on rice, but none of them wereaccepted. A new rice section increasing theduty was, however, inserted in the bill uponmotion of Mr. Aldrich.Mr. Plumb endeavored to secure the impo¬sition of a 25 per cent ad valorem duty on raw

unmanufactured silk, but he was in a minority.He succeeded, though, in getting an adminis¬trative section adopted which provides for the

Gipsy Camp.IOW DETECTIVE BAIT CAME HEAB LORINO THEcuaTODY or the bot ur the capital or vib-oinia.confession or the peisoneb.he hassebvbd tebms in the femtentiabt.

Detective Raff went to Richmond Mondaynight to bring here for trial the colored boy,Ben Thomaa, alia* Jim Jones, charged withcomplicity in the robbery of 9700 from TomStanley at the gipsy camp. The grand jurywaa not in *e**ion at the time and the officertook with him a warrant from the Police Courtcharging the priaoner with the robbery. Whenthe officer arrived in Richmond without a re¬

quisition (the proper paper*) he informed theauthorities that he had a United State* war¬rant. The officer attached so much import¬ance to the fact that the paper was a "UnitedStates warrant" that the prisoner was taken be¬fore a police Justice and given a partial hear¬ing. A colored attorney made his appearanceas the prisoner's counsel and made

A HABD FIGHT FOE HI* CLIENT.Another attorney volunteered his service*

and rendered what assistance he conld to thedetective. The colored attorney's points werewell taken and the justice declined to surrenderthe prisoner on the warrant. During the de¬bate counsel became excited and it was thoughtfor a time that they would come to blows. De¬tective Raff and a Richmond detective took thejudge's advice and went before the governor,who was undecided as to what action to take.The attorney-general was sent for and the offi¬cers and counael were told to return to thestate house at 1 o'clock. Detective Raff thenwent before United States Commissioner Pleas¬ants and iwore out a warrant charging theprisoner with burglary. The case was heardand the prisoner was turned over to DetectiveRaff, who was deputized by the marshal tobring him to this city. The prisoner's attor¬ney returned to the governor and waited forthe return of the officer*, but Detective Raffhad been given the prisoner and it waa too lateto save his client He applied for a writ ofhabeas corpus, but was unable to get it becausethe prisoner could not be found.

CONFESSION OF THE PBISONEB.When the officer started with the prisoner to

return to this city, Thomaa made a full con¬fection. He said that he and Monroe Tricevisited Sanley'* tent while the latter wa* away.Trice watched while he (Ben) took the moneyfrom under the carpet. There wa* gold andgreenback*. They cnt aero** the country to¬ward the reservoir and there they divided thepaper money. They got on a 7ta street earana eame to the city.

HOW THE BOT* GOT AWAT FBOM TEX CTTT.Then they got in a brick wagon and crowed

the Long bridge on their way to Alexandria.While croMing the bridge tljey divided the goldmoney. They walked from the brick yara* toAlexandria, where they took the ateamerLeary for Norfolk. When Trice waa arrestedon the wharf in Norfolk Ben aav* he wentaround behind a warehouse and tnrew hi* re¬volver in the river. That afternoon he tookthe train for Riehmond. When captui*d 9187waa taken from him. Thomas waa identified a*being a priaoner who spent three year* in theRichmond penitentiary. This morning he wa*taken to the Police Court and given a hearing.He pleaded not guilty.
