named Simpson. They drove out to Bright
wood in buggy and went to the Brightwood
postoilice and showed picture OF the prisoner
and made Inquiries as To the whereabouts OF
his relations farm. A farmer who was present
said the photograph looked like Ed Ross, a
brother OF the murderer, who married a girl
named Murphy, whose people reside on the
and discovered that Ross had bought some
giDger.snaps. After travelling several miles
further and walking nearly mile through a
dense wood, they came to the house OF Ross
brother.
Having no papers for the arrest OF the prls.
oner the officers got the sheriff OF the county,

about to enter the house, and learned that
Frenchy had arrived there about z o'clock In

was not aware that Frenchy had committed
any crime, or that the officers were after him,
and readily told the officers that his uncle was

They drew their weapons and awoke him,
when no was treated TO a surprise party In the
shape OF two officers with drawn pistols.
The place whero Ross was captured was
very obscure spot, and the prisoner expressed
surprise that he was discovered there.
His story of his escape Is to the effect that
when the police chased him into the Smitnso.

laid there until near daylight, whom he went
TO Temperance Hall alley. About Z 80 o'clock
Friday morning he met two friends on Ninth
street, who told him for Gods sake to get out
OF town, for Tenney was dead. This was the
first he know OF the death of Tenney.
Then he went TO his boarding-ho9se on d
street, Capitol Hill, and changed his clothes
and washed the blood out OF the suit no had on
when he did the cutting. He went 10 his
brothers on Franklin street, and left about
nfteen minutes before the officers got there.

HE HAULED DOWN THE FLAG.
A Remarkable Story Told by u Sea-
mNn Of the Shenandoah.

An old seaman, who was attached for a long
time to the U. s. s. Shenandoah, In converse.
ton with CRITIC reporter yesterday, told a
very remarkable story which, In substance,
was that during the troubles some years ago
at Cuba, and shortly before General Ryan, of
THIS country, gave uphis life in the cause of
The Insurgents, the Shenandoah was making
her wey from Havana TO Key West.
At that time several Spanish cruisers were
looking out for freebooting boats. The com.
mander OF tho Shenandoah sighted smoke, and
Mt once, as II ashamed of his colors, hauled
down the American nag and run up that OF the
English. This act was Missed by some of the
sailors, who denounced the commander In un.
measured torms Tor his cowardice. Tho sea.
man concluded his story rs follows "As we
neared tho vessel from which the smoke came,
We discovered that It was ono OF the Bremen
Line OF merchant vessels, and our cowardly
captain hauled down the English colors and
allowed tho wind to once more flap against the
nag OF the land OF the Free"
