the Americans have no rivals in the

but 1882; Germany but 9S5; France

California fourth, with 43. In that

the charge of the mounted police.
Some arrests were made for
profanity and disorderly conduct Be-
ing driven from 18th and Sth streets,
the crowd went up 14th street to the
sewer between New York avenue and

be allowed to work at less than$ ST 80

so should be shot or stoned to death.
They also demanded the men to stop
work, and one or two stones were thrown
and the workmen were obliged
to retire, but the police arriving they
resumed work. The crowd then went
out on Oath street calling on men of
private works to join them and many
did 50. AS the crowd marched down
7th street, many with picks and clubs,
it was swelled to 800. Or 400, and they
turned into B south between 9Th and 10Th
street. A squad of police going
to s breakfast n were N attacked.
The police promptly drew their pistols
and fired into the frightened crowd.
David Snowdon, colored,passing through
the Smithsonian grounds, was shot in
the back. Another colored man was
shot while hurlinga brick at an officer.
Lieut.. Gessford received a painful

49,. Bowling Green ,Ky.) Democrat.
On Sabbath last, the cave in which
Lost river disappears under Cave mill
was the scene of an incident which oc-
casioned not little excitement for q time
1t came well nigh extinguishing more
than the lights of an exploring party.
1t seems that Messrs. w. II. Phillips,
Bud" Coombs, John Bailey and j. b,
Sumpter, accomp panied by colored boy,
seeking refuge from the heat, had gone
into the cave, and, after following its
windings for a mile OF more, had faced
about and were returning, when sud
denly they were terrified by the sound
Of the waters, laundering down upon
them from the entrance. Some persons
at the mouth of the cave, not knowing
that an exploring party was IN, had
started the turbine wheel, and the pent-
up river was rushing madly down its
hidden bed. The suspense to the party
imperiled was Of brief duration. In u
moment the water had them in it's pow
er and was hurting them against the
rocks, and sweeping them before it on
what seemed, without figure the wave
of death. Fortunately they were soon
carried into an opening too large to be
filled by the current, where, clinging to
the overhanging rocks, they were able
to hold themselves up, until the flood
gate was again closed. Their lights
were, however, all out, and, cut and
bruised, as they were already, they had
TO make their way to the spring, more
than half annie distant, in pitch dark
ness, over broken, rocky, cavernous
path, which, even with the light Of day,
would be exceedingly difficult. Fortu-
nately no life was lost, and we presume
this. party Of sight-seers will in the
future be careful under what circun-
stances they explore the bowels Of the

The Battle of Lookout Mountain, says
General Grant, was one of the romances
of the war. There was no such battle
AID no action even worthy to be called
a battle on Lookout Mountain.
I clipped the foregoing from The
Times Of to-day. It is in perfect agree
ment with my own observation and
knowledge AS. a, temporary brigade
COMMANDER in Bates division of Breck-
enridge's corps, Army OF Tennessee,
and as corps officer of the day on the
occasion of the capture Of Lookout
Mountain, whose duty required him to
be, most Of the time, to the front on the
picket line, the rest Of which rested on
Chattanooga creek, near where it flows
into the Tennessee river at the foot Of
the mountain, and as, owing to mete
geological phenomenon which wrapped
the valley and at least one.half the noun
tain, from its base upward. in EgyptHn
darkness, orders requiring unusual vigil
lance, lest q surprise attack should be
attempted, were received, and, AS IN
consequence, special watchfulness was
maintained, particularly on the left Of
the line, which was thought to be the
most exposed, and as was on the pick
ct line all the forenoon and until after
one o'clock p. M, giving the strictest
attention to every circumstance that
could arouse suspicion, feel safe in as
sorting that no one in either army, not
actually engaged, had better opportuni-
ties than for knowing when an affair
which could 10y any reasonable posi-
biIity he lmagnifieds intoh battle" did
take place on that occasion on Lookout

session for the third time.
When the doors were again opened.

answer all questions the committee
might see proper to put, and was asked
his age and occupation?
Anderson replied that he had no de-
sire to throw obstacles in the way, but
Senator Matthews was lawyer, and
was here looking after his interests,
and Anderson did not see why he
should not have lawyer to look after
his own interests.
The questions were repeated; also
whether he had placed any papers in
Matthew'S possession and, if so, what?
Anderson declined to answer. H.
Senator Whyte-"You mean sir to
say you set at defiance the will of this
committee?"
Anderson-s'You put it too strong;
simply wish to say decline answer
ing; have to propose that Senator
Matthews will go before the Potter
committee before will testify"
Another consultation of the commit
tee followed. fF htas.
When the doors were again opened,
Anderson was informed by the chair
man that the committee had decided
they would require his testimony before
the committee. He then asked Ander-
son:
"Are you now willing to answer
such questions as may be propounded
to you?'- - ~ -
Anderson replied: "I am not"
Chairman-"Then, on refusing TO
answer any question pertaining to mat
ters of investigation, you set this COM
mittee at defiance. -
Senator Whyte-'sIn the absence of
the Senate, we have no power to punish
for contempt, therefore, 1 move that
this committee do now adjourn, subject
to the call of the chairman
The motion was agreed to, and the
committee accordingly adjourned.
