Somebody has prepared for the Louisville
Courier-.JO,,rnaI tabular statement purporting
to give the number OF deaths from yellow fever
in the various places in the country visited by
that disease this year, in which Washington Is
set down as having had five fatal cases. We do
not know where its author got his statistics; but
il his figures are as wide of the truth in their
application 10 other places as they are in regard
to Washington, the list in question Is not only
worthless as a historical record. but it may in
some instances prove to be injurious in its ef
1ectS So far as Washington is concerned the
Misrepresentation cannot dO any damage, but
ii nevertheless seems proper to state. as a mat
ter of fact. that not only has there not been
death fFCm yellow fever in this city or its neigh
boIhoCd this year, or for many years past but
not a single case of the disease, even in a mild
form. This too. in the absence OF any quaran-
tine regulations or other special precautions.
and in spite OF the visits of refugees from liz
fected districts and the return OF nurses and
physicians who went from Washington to min
lister 20 the sick and dying in places where the
disease was prevailing in its worst form.

APPLICATION TO REDUCE FESsLERS BAIL.

Application was made to Judge Meyer few
days ago by George Fessler's attorneys to reduce
the bail required of the accused, being s275,OOO
On Monday the motion was argued and on Tues
day the Judge rendered his decision giving the
law and his reasons length for deciding adverse
to the application. Judge Meyer took over an hour
in giving the legal bearings Of the case, reading
the clauses of the United States Constitution and
the Constitution Of Ohio, as well as the various
statutes bearing upon the case. Mr.. Fesser not
being under Indictment is not in position to be
completely under the control of the court as in
ordinary criminal proceedings, as in that case the
provisions of the Constitution against excessive
bail might apply. Blu: Judge Meyer clearly showed
that, under the provisions Of the treasury law the
accused stood in different position. He was not
yet indicted and hence the charges were not
known. The accused accepted the trust with full
knowledge of the conditions imposed by the law.
The ruling is undoubtedly according to the law,
and we believe all who heard 1t concurred.

SERIOUS RUNAWAY ACCIDENT-Billy Geiger
and Herman Numan met with quite an unpleas-
ant accident Sunday afternoon. They were
driving south on Poplar street and when about
two blocks above the Ball shops, Geiger, who was
driving, struck the horse with the whip. The
horse lunged forward, Geiger pulled him back,
and he commenced going up and down and stick.
Ing his feet into the carriage. few kicks and
few jumps and jam against a tree landed the
boys on the pavement, Geiger unhurt, but Numan
badly bruised about the head. The horse, a fine
large bay, went on down Poplar across the rail.
road kicking and jumping until the carriage was
completely demolished. The rig belonged to
Henry Numan, brother of the young man who
was hurt sister Of Geiger's, who was sitting
within sight Of the accident tainted, and bystand
ers say 1t was all in all as frightful performance
as could be imagined.

THIEvISG ON A SMALL SCALE Last Tuesday
night some party entered the residence of Mr.
Robert Owen, on South Market street, and carried
on a package of sugar, some bread some baking
SODA, and even two eggs which were lying on a
table and pepper-box. This kind of sneak
thieving has within month or six weeks become
entirely too common, and our city which during
last winter was almost free from such sgpravatinS
performances is now evidently the very head.
quarters for footpads. An officer told our repor
ter day or two since that right now during har-
vest he'could make canvass along the railroad
from the East bridge to the West any night and
md more tramps than at any time during the
winter This is very interesting, but not at all
pleasant state of affairs and shows, perhaps. the
driit OF this tramp business. We say, perhaps
because so many statesmen have failed to cone
with the tramp that we fight shy of opinions and
are contented to give facts, among which we NAV
mention that the citizens of East and West Can.
ton near the railroad, are in continual fear of be-
ing carried off bodily or burned out. Their wards
outhouses and stables are overrun and injured by
these lousy pilfering wretches, and they must feed
them or be insulted and blackguarded.
