his bowling and drumming, he was enabled to
present petitions to the Board with just 236 Big

voter out Of every twelve in the County, and
without waiting for bids, he asked that the
County printing be given him st one-fourth le-

getting none Of the printing; bat If he could get
it at one-fourth rates, he would not be worse OF

Extensive SWindleH.

Not long since a well-dressed man came
to this city from Tennessee and registered
at the Gibson House under the name OF
Colonel Harry A. Gilbert" He repre-,
sented himself to be the possessor of large
amount of land in Tennessee and in some
of the Western States, and among Others
who placed any credit in his story was Mr.
Marion g. Davis, livery stable keeper al
No 100 Central avenue.
Soon trade was made Mr.. Davis ex
changing an engine and farm for five thou
sand acres of land in Tennessee but, upon
visiting his new possessions, Mr.. Davis
found that his title was woefully defective
A few days later a similar trade was made
between the Colonel and II. G. Wolf o
Springfield, Ohio, in which Mr. Wolf ex
changed the Yellow Springs House. at Vel
low Springs, Ohio, for several large tracts o.
Western land, the result of which was the
same as in the former case.
Mr. Wolf reported the swindle. and soOr
Detective Larry Hazcn and Xenia de
tective had the Colonel in the Xena Jail
but in working up the case the revelation
was made that several extensive furniture
dealers had been swindled out of large
amount of furniture. The Colonel, by rep
rescnting himself to be furnishing his new
hotel, would make these purchases, and a.
soon as the furniture arrived would dispose
of it and pocket the money.

Accidents.

George Steroff, street-car conductor, WE
kicked in the forehead by mule attached
to a car yesterday, at the corner of Filth
and Vine streets, and very seriously
injured.
As the supply wagon of the Cummins-
vile Orphan Asylum was turning the coz
ner of Gest and Freeman streets Yesterday. n
wheel came off, and one of the sisters and
three boys were thrown to the ground. A
barrel of molasses rolled from the wageu
over one of the boys injuring him severely,
but the others were only slightly hurt.
John Rohmann, a tailor residing in Read
ing, was driving into the city yesterday af-
ternoon i'll company with his daughter ROss,
when he stopped at the corner of Montgom-
cry and Reading roads to water his horse.
After taking off the bride the horse became
frightened, knocked Mr.. Rohmann down,
and ran away, both wheels passing over the
mans body. In few moments the girl at
tempted to jump to the ground, but her
clothes caught in such manner that she
was thrown under the wagon and dragged
for nearly mile. At the corner of Broad
way and Court the child was liberated
and taken to the Betts-streets Hospital,
where the physician pronounced her
wounds not necessarily dangerous, but ex-
ceedingly severe.
A horse driven by Frank Griewe rm
away on Walnut street yesterday, smaslaed
up the buggy and threw Mr.. Griewe into
the mud, but no serious injuries resulted

The Board of Trade held regular meet

A resolution was adopted that the Gin
cinnati Board of Trade hereby expresses its
appreciation of the kind feelingsand friend
ly interest manifested by the management
of the Alabama & Chattanooga Railroad in
offering, free of charge the use of portion
of the A. & G. Railroad Passenger Depot to
the Cincinnati Southern Railway, pending
permanent arrangements for the transaction
of business of the said Cincinnati Southern
Railroad.
A resolution was adopted that the subject
of protection of our river navigation from
foes of ice be referred to the Committee on
River Navigation with instructions to re
port the best means for the accomplishment
OF that object.
Resolved, That the subject of leveeing
the Mississippi River be referred to the Com
mittee on River Navigation to investigate
and report at the Board of Trade whether
such levees are not an injury rather than a
benefit to the navigation of said river. .
Adopted.
Speeches were made in regard to the de-
feat of the 81, 900, 900 levy on Friday, and on
the question, What was to be done to com
plete the road?
On motion of Mr.. Kirby the Committee
on Railroads was appointed to make a re-
port at the next meeting on this subject.
