Capt. VIM. B. Chew WAS arrested in
the conductors room at Camden Sta
ton, Baltimore, at 9 o'clock Tuesday
morning, charged with embezzling the
money Of the Baltimore and Ohio rail
road. The arrest was made by f. E.
Grammar, chief detective in the special
force employed by the railroad compa-
ny in the presence of four others con-
ductors. The arrest caused great sur
prise, as Capt. Chew was known to be
one of the oldest conductors in the SER
vice of the road and generally regarded
as thoroughly Trustworthy. All the
passenger conductors, it is stated have
been under close watch lately, with q
view Of trying new plan which the
company had resolved upon in dealing
with those who appropriate funds COL
lected as fare from passengers.
AS this is the first arrest ever made
in Maryland of railroad conductor on
the charge of embezzlement, the issue
is awaited with some interest. Sen.

WASHINGTON Letter.
ORION OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT.

tFRoM Our REGULAR CoRREsPoNpEST)
July, 18th. 1884.
Congress which has been going, 60
ing, for so long, has gone, for Il while.
At least the battle of the first session
of the Forty-eighth Congress is over
and many statesmen who have nobly
fought for nothing, are Fastening to
their homes. Many will remain, how
ever, some time in the city, having
business for constituents before the
Departments, and private matters to
close up. Many also have elegant re-
sidences in Washington, where they
claim to enjoy more ease, comfort and
recreation than by seeking summer re-
sorts.
But the Capitol looks dreary and de-
serted. The star spangled banner no
longer waves from the Senate, and
House wings. The host that for more
than seven months have poured through
the halls, have fled, leaving much dust
and bad odor. The corridors have as
sumed their summer air OF emptiness,
and resound with hollow echoes to the
tread of tramps, tourists, and honey
mooners. There are at all times parties
of sight seers roaming through the
building, but they look disappointed
when Congress is not in session, and are
increlulous of the wonderful stories the
guides are won't to impose upon yaca-
ton visitors.
A number Of committees have been
empowered to hold sessions during the
summer. On the House side there are
three of these - that on the selection
of material for the construction OF ord
nance, the one to consider South Amer
lean relations, and the Appropriation
committee. The Senate has authorized
eight committees to sit during the re-
cess, and most Of them to select their
own places for holding sessions. The
committee on transportation routes to
the seaboard is the most important of
these. Another chance for a junketng
trip is afforded IN the case of the Com
mittee on finance, which will spend
some time in New York investigating
and reporting whether or not there is
any additional national bank legisla-
ton necessary. They are to have $40
600, and are permitted to employ a
stenographer and some special examin-
ers.
The Forty eighth Congress will not be
distinguished in history for what it &C.
complished at its first session. 1t set
out to do many brave things, but its
pathway is thickly strewn with failures

The Gallant 'City of st. Paul" Makes
the First Trip of the Season

About half past ten O'Clock last night the

Davidson's st. Paul and st. Louis line of
steamboats,, arrived at the levee at st. Paul,
with a cargo of over six hundred
tons of miscellaneous freight. Cap
tain Thompson reports that he left
st. Louis Friday evening, and was contin-
ually taking on and putting off freight all
the way up, and estimates that he received
and delivered as way freight as much as he
brought to st. Paul. He found any quantity
awaiting bis boat all the way up. The St.
Paul left La Crosse at one O'Clock Wednesday
morning. He found no ice in the lake,
and everything smooth and quiet all
the way along. A large part of the freight
is for the forts all along through Montana
and the country west and northwest of ST.
Paul. A. K. Pruden of st. Paul has 1903
stoves. Mayo s. Clark 1873 reels of barbed
wire. George J. Mitsch and Detoff d Stears,

The st. Paul Crusaders held second an

hall, the attendance being very good. The
entertainment consisted of instrumental
music by Seibert's orchestra, speaking, sing
ing and four act play entitled Scion
Single. The speaking consisted OF an ad-
dress of welcome by the president, Mr.. j.
+. Mcclure, and the annual address by Rev.
P. Dewehy. The singing by Miss schonarth
and Mr.. Baker was very good, and the play
was presented in a pleasing manner.
The title role of the play was taken by
Mr.. A. NJ. Doherty, whose makeup as Scion
Single was about as fine thing as could
be imagined, while he enacted the role like
born comedian. This gentleman possesses
natural vein OF comedy, and he would do
well to cultivate it.

TO the Editor of the Globe:

TO the Editor or the GIoDe: -.--.
Why is it that the Germans are being root
ed out of the fire Department. At almost
every meeting of the board some German is
reported by the chief and on the motion of
our representative in the board the man re-
ported is discharged and the new appoint
ment is almost invariably an Irishman. We
claim we have as good material as any other
nationality. We do not wish incompetent
men retained in the department because
they are Germans, but we don't like this
discrimination against'us. If German is
discharged why not appoint German in his
place. Perhaps our representative in the
board can give the reason. ...... 80.

Race Horses at Lexington.

LEXINGTON, KY, April 16.-The weather
has been so unfavorable this spring that the
horses at the Kentucky associations grounds,
near this city, have had merely nominal
amount of work, and it was not until lately
that the track could be put into any kind of
order. Recent trial races, however, show
that the horses are in a great deal better
condition than was supposed, as q number
Of them made most excellent time
The entries this year are quite large,
and as the races do not begin until
May Mr.. Murphy, the superintendent of
the grounds, will have the track in apple
pie order, and the horses will all come to
time in frst-class keller. The purses and
stakes have nearly all been doubled for the
approaching meeting; therefore the May
meeting, it is expected, will be the most
successful and interesting one held here for
years. The flyers now in training on the
association grounds for the May meeting
are some of the best on the continent
