WANTS TO STEAL HIMSELF EVEN.
Collector Peasants. of Georgia. charged
with misappropriating the funds of the
government, had an interview with Secre :
tary Folger this morning. He begged to
be allowed to remain in Office till he could
make good his losses, and said that his er-
rors had been through carelessness and not
with criminal intent. Secretary Folger
Informed Pleasants that his case was one
that could not be compromised, and to his
request to be allowed to keep his Office for
two years the secretary replied: "You can
not keep it two hours" An order for per-
emptory removal was made.
THE CARRoLLs OF CARRo1rLoN.
1t has been briefly announced that the
grand daughter of Charles Carroll. of Car
rollton, one of the signers of the Declar a.
ton OF Independence, died in this city
Wednesday. Miss Annie O. Carroll was a
daughter of Daniel Carroll, of Dudington,
who died in this city over thirty years ago.
Miss Carroll was in the sixty ninth year of
her age. She was one of family of four
daughters, two of whom, Mrs. Gen. Nichol-
son and Mrs. Henry Brent, died some years
ago. After the death of her father Annie
o. Carroll, being woman of
fine business qualifications, actively en-
gagged in the management of the estate
left by him, and when it is remembered
that, with Griffith Coumbe and James
Coumbe he owned the entire eastern Sec
tion of the city, the magnitude of ais work
is apparent, Mr.. Carrolrs property COM
prislng the largest portion of it. During
the war Miss Carroll took great interest in
the conflict, and prepared a plan for the
western campaign, which was in the main
adopted. Like her illustrious grandfather
and father, she was devout Catholic.
WHY THE DUEL WASN'T FOUGHT.
There appears to have been a good rea-
son for the Riddleberger-M McCarty
duel not taking place. McCarty is
dead shot, but Riddleberger
might have gone through the motions had it
not been for Malone. Young Malone,
who is about the senator a great deal,
said to-day that his father sent for Riddle
berger and said to him. "This duel bust
ness will have to stop right off. 1 have
made big fight in Virginia, and have car
ried my point there with great difficulty.
Do you suppose for moment that 1 am
going to allow you to 60 out and have
vacancy made in the United States
senate by Mr.. McCarty's bullet? Just as
sure as you get in line with McCarty's pis-
tol you are dead man. would have no
objection to your being shot as an in
dividual, my dear Riddleberger, but
under the circumstances I have good
deal more use for you on this earth than
have off from it. So restrain yourself, my
dear boy" Riddleberger is fair sample
of the Virginia cross roads orator who saic
in loud yelling voice: 81 like, be gawd,
to fling lie at man and see it hit him."
And thus McCarty was spared the necessity
of unsettling the readjuster balance in the
United States senate.
SIGNIFICANT CONFERENCES.
Geo. G. Gorham and Malone have within
the past few days had repeated conferences.
Gorham, it is understood, is hauling off
from his hunt for the secretaryship of the
senate and is bending his energies else
where. He has ambition to run the
politics of Maryland and organized the
Republican party there, to put it in line
with Virginia. To this end the scheme is
said to be to get Gorham appointed as
collector of customs at Baltimore. Malone
is to back and urge him. The Baltimore
collectorship is e-eminently the Office
which rules Republican politics in Mary
land.
ANOTHER GARFIELD MARSHAL DISPLACED.
The president has nominated man
named Eberhard, to be marshal for the
southern district of New York. This dis
places Knox, an appointment of Gen. Gar
field. Knox was a great civil service re-
former. He was one of the leaders
for reform in New York. The
AAANAS AoUioA VI tu0 r0IOrInorS over his re.
moval and displacement by Eberhardt
will, IN measure, be lessened by knowl-
edge of the fact that Knox is short some
$1,000 in his account.
MISCELLANEOUS.
An error in the accounts of an officer of
the internal revenue involving 100000
was discovered and rectifed by clerk in
the Office of the first comptroller to-day.
The drafts for the payment of the awards
made by the Garfield board of audit we're
delivered to-day to such as applied for
them. They will be mailed to all who do
not call for them.
