From Washington

[Correspondende of the Alexandria Gazette.] Washington, Aug. 2. Senator H. A. DuPont, and other leading members of the DuPont family may eventually have to defend themselves from criminal prosecution. In its preparation of the action for a Gissolution of the powder trust, the government is known to have intentionally refrained from examining the Senator and other leading members of the great corporation 80 they coull not raise the point that they had taken an "immunity bath." Officials o. the Department of Justice will not discuss at this time the criminal phase of the case. The government has great interest in the powder trust, being one of its largest customers. Although it has carefully concealed this interest in the bill recently filed at Wilmington, Del., it is said upon good authority that the prosecution against the individuals will be pushed with relentless vigor, and that they will be punished civilly and criminally if sufficient law can be found to cover the case. The people of this town will soon have the opportunity of seeing a real live polygamous prince of the Philippines. Sansaluna, head of the Moros and son of the late Datto Ali, who was killed while fighting against American troops in the Moro country, has engaged quarters at a local hotel. He will come here from the Jamestown Exposition and will be accompanied, it is said, by his four wives. No information is to be had at either the State Department or Japanese embassy confirmatory of the cabled report from Berlin to the effect that Viscount Aoki, the Japanese ambassador to the United States, is to be transferred to Berlin. The disturbance at Casablanca, in Morocco, is believed here to be merely a display of anti-foreign feeling. United States Minister Gummere, at Tangier has cabled to the State Department, confirming the press dispatches that the wild tribes from the hills killed five Frenchmen, two Spaniards and one Italian besides wounding others. The Comptroller of the Currency has authorized the reopening of the doors of the Hicksville, 0., First National Bank, which was placed in the hands of a receiver July 2. Its capital stock has been fully restored.
