Use of Pistols by the Police.

The shooting of the negro Smith,by Police
man Martinez, should bring to public atten-
ton the danger of arming the police;-a pistol
in the hands of policeman is as dangerous as
in the hands of a COW boy,-perhaps more SO.
Martinez, thought because he was policeman
he had right to shoot down flying thief,
and yet, had he killed his victim, he would
have been guilty Of murder and been entitled
to the honor of pulling hemp at the public ex-
pense; as it is, he will be subject to charge
of assault with intent to murder.
A policeman has no greater right to use his
pistol upon fellow-man than any other per-
son has. He must only use it in self defense,
and then strictly under the conditions of any
other unofficial person; in making an arrest
the policeman is the aggressor and should be
careful to only use more force necessary to
perform his duty.
The only excuse for sherihs and other Off
GERS carrying deadly weapons, is that they may
possibly encounter desperate men, who carry
arms and would resist peaceable arrest.

On Saturday evening well known resident
of San Antonio received letter from Charles

One curious feature of the letter is tina: the sig
nature is thrice signed, thus:
Charles Cuiteau.
Charles Guiteau Charles Guiteau.
Whether this is another evidence of his
crankism, or eminates from the desire Of Gui-
teau to spread his autographs abroad as that
of an important character, our readers can
themselves determine.

Death of an Eccentric stranger.

A stranger by the name of John Terry, 20
years, died at the sisters hospital last night.
This yonng man came here some weeks ago
in the last stages of consumption and put up
at the Braden hotel. The hotel people finally in
sisted upon his going to the hospital, as he
claimed to be in slaughtered circumstances and
would not have doctor. He was removed to the
hospital about three weeks since, and died as
was stated last, evening. He made several
statements about his affairs, but insisted upon
the city paying his bills; he also refused to
tell of the Whereabouts of his friends. Upon
examining his effects since his death, the sis
tiers report that $500 was found on his person,
and deposit checks to the amount of several
thousand dollars-also that by letters found
the Mother Superior has been enabled to tele-
graph to the father of the deceased.
Further particulars about the man who died
at the hospital disclose that his name is Jno.
w. Terry, that in dressing him for burial, a
wad of greenbacks was found concealed on
his person, amounting to $3.50, and check
on the Emporia National Bank, Kansas, for
$3.50, a deposit check for So 600 on the
San Antonio National Bank, and on Lock-
wood & Kampmann for So, 600; in all So, $40,
yet he was in rags, and asked the city ply
sician to have his prescription filed by the
city.
