The Hack Business In Evansville,

Evansville hackmen are allowed to use
their own judgment In charging strangers
Who trust themselves to their tender mer-
eies. The Courier tells of tho experiences
Of man by the nsIAe of Kaiser who was
driven from the depot to hotel, and charg.
ed dollar and half for himself and trunk.
The Courier says: The traveller protested
against this extortion, and offered to COM
promise with the driver by paying one dol
lar. Alexander would not accept that
amount and went off saying he would see
Mr.. Kaiser in the morning. At six O'Clock
yesterday morning he was awakened by
Constable Frank Morris, who served writ
Of attachment against Mr.. Kaiser's trunk
for non-paymeDt Of charges. Yesterday
Mr.. Kaiser was taken before Justice Nc
Ternan, where postponemsnt OF the case
until next Wednesday morning was called
for. Mr.. Kaiser protested against this as
he wished TO leave yesterday evening, and
demanded his immediate trial, which was
granted. After hearing Judgment OF one
dollar was rendered against Mr.. Kaiser, and
be was compelled to pay three dollars, the
costs Of the case.

THE SUSPENSION BRIDGE ACCI.
DENT.
The River Dragged fog Delee's B0dy,
but without Success.

but without Success.
A large number OF fishermen and others
were engaged nearly all day yesterday drag
cling the river below the Suspension Bridge,
in vain attempt to recover the body of
John Delee, 81 account OF whose death by
drowning was published in our columns
yesterday. 4s-s
Hundreds OF people visited the bridge
during the day, Ia order TO see the exact
spot where the unfortunate man fell
through. Il Is about 100 feet from the
west end of the bridge, aud Immediately
over the deepest channel In the river. His
hat was found lying on The bridge, by
cousin, John Delee, at an early hour yes
terday morning, streak Of blood, about an
inch and half In length, is visible on the
under side o; the brim. The hat is COM
mon black felt hat, with rather broad
brim.
Delee had returned from Louisville Monday
with sum of money which had Eeen paid
him In Louisville,on account Of his services
as engineer of the switch engine at the Lou
isville depot. 1t was very rare thing for
him TO cross over to Edfiefield on the sus-
pension bride, as the railroad bridge was
much more convenient for him. 1t Is said
bfiab uO was SOiDS W nb4J OIL I1Suh W III
Mike Dowd, the man who was with him at
the time be fell through the bridge, and who
resides in Edgefeld. Il.
A market man by the name of Booth was
crossing the bridge coming to Nashville at
the time the accident occurred, and he
heard man say: 81 am going-Il be id
II don't go.n The night was so dark that
he could not see any one on the bridge. He
did not stop, ous whipped his horses into
trot, and just as be reached the end of the
bridge, Dowd came running up and said
that Delee had fallen through the bridge.
The river rose two feet eight inches Mon
day night, and Is still rising, so that 1t seems
hardly possible that the body viii be found
near the bridge.
We were mistaken In saving that the
mother of Delee lives in Edgefeld. His
mother is not living, and he was the last of
family of eleven children, ali, or nearly all
Of whom came to an untimely end.
The search for the body will be resumed
this morning.
Delee was very worthy young man,
and those intimately acquainted with him
were sstonished to hear it charged that he
was intoxicated at the time of the accident,
as he never made practice Of drinking.

Here We see heavy decline in the wheat
receipts from Russia during the first nne
months of the present as compared with thu
corresponding periods in the two preceding
yearc. At the same time there is q CORE
spending increase in the supplies from the
United States. There is this year a de-
crease in round numbers of 5 100000 cwts.
of wheat from Russia, and an increase Of
no less than 5000, 900 cwts. in tbe imports
from the United States. The falling off in
Russian supplies is Of course a result of the
failure Of the wheat harvest in Southern
Russia, upon which Western Europe is so
largely dependent.

We 60 Have I'm Nashville?
To the Union and American:
Some time before the last city election
took place, the City Fathers, seeing the ab-
solute necessity of supplying Nashville with
pure water, from above the filthy drainage
of Mill creek, Browns creek, the four GEM
eteries, and other sources of impurities now
being emptied into the river above the
Ws.er-works, and pumped up and delivered
to the citizens for their consumption, ap-
pointed an engineer to make the necessary
surveys to ascertain the cost of supplying
the city from above Stones river with all
the water 1t needs. 1t is very important
that the engineer should make bis report as
soon as possible, the failure health of Nash
vile demands 1t.
The Mayor in his annual address stated
that it would cost one and half million
dollars to build the now CONTEMPLATED
works. Viii his Honor give detailed
statement of the cost, and how he expects
to spend one and half million dollars on
said improvements. 1t is believed that one
third Of that amount will complete the
works if properly managed. However,
give the people the figures in detail, and by
this means bring out the facts, as other par
ties will 60 to work figuring on it also.
