GRANT 8 WARDS FAILURE.
Important Disclosures Promised
Experienced Operators Among the
Vfnaan.a

Aspecial dispatch from New York says: sim.
portant disclosures are impending In the Grant
& Ward failure, but when they Will come de-
ponds largely upon the disposition OF two sets
OF detectives which are working up the case.
The developments would have been made four
or fve days ago had IL Dot been that Inspector
Byrne's forces were trying to get the best OF
the private detectives. Instead OF working up
the case as they should have done, they have
been devoting their time to watching each
other. Rumor states that there Is a niger In
this fence, and that there is money for the mon
who will prevent the true inwardness OF the
matter becoming public. AT any rate It Is well
known that not half Of the iniquity has boon
uncovered, and that when the real facts are
obtained there Will be enough evidence to send
several men TO State's>prison.
'ln the meantime the amount OF money rep
resented In the failure is daily increasing.
There seems to be no limit t0-tho>pumoer OF
men who have been drawn into the net. The
strangest part OF the whole affair Is that the
victims were generally capitalists who have a
public reputation for shrewdness. Russell
Sage, who is accredited with having cut moro
eye-teeth than any other man In Wall street,
was even drawn into the mesh, but, with his
usual good luck, got out with his lucre before
the crash came. No one Will believe that tho
capitalists and bankers who bit at the bait
which Ward held out TO them were really
fooled in his ability to earn tho enormous re-
wards promised by him by legitimate means.
Their training taught them otherwise. The
thing which tickled their palates and drew
crooked contracts whereby enormous profits
could be reaped. This Is the view generally
taken by conservative men here. II II be COR
rect II is the only plausible explanation. II
shows the degree OF morality which exists In
the financial centre OF this country"

ALEXANDRIA AFFAIRS,

young man named Frank Wood, about
IL years OF age, while fishing at Messrs. VIM.
A. Smoot 4 Co.'s wharf on Saturday evening,
about 3 o'clock, fell overheard and camo near
being drowned. AS soon as the young man
fell from the wharf a number OF the hands EN-.
ployed by Smoot hurried to the spot, but could
see nothing OF the unfortunate youth. MIR.
Smoot noticed that the rod OF the line with
which young Wood had been angling disap-
peared In the water several umes ana sue
ceeded In getting hold OF the rod. After some
littlo difficulty Mr.. s. drew tho fishing line
from tho wafer, which was wound tightly
about the young flsherman's arms. The young
man had been under water for at least three
minutes, and was unconscious when rescued,
and It was fully half an hour before any sign
of life was visible. He was removed to his
fathers residence, on North Columbus street,
after being restored to consciousness.
Mr.. O. O. smoot, prominent and highly
respected citizen, died at his late residence,
the 5Sth year of his age. He was the head OF

EAST WASHINGTON.

Last Saturday afternoon, during game. OF
ball at Lincoln Park grounds, young lad
named Paul Porter was struck on tho head
with bat and seriously Injured. He was re.
moved 10 his residence on Sixth street, near
the corner OF East Capitol, and Drs. Hazen and
Ford Thompson were summoned. An exami'
nation OF the wound showed that tho boys
head was fractured.
Ex-Policeman George Duval is etlll very Ill
at his son's residence In East Washington.
The Dietrict Commissioners several weeks
since caused the announcement to be made
that the work OF improving street from Third
10 the Congressional Cemetery would DO begun
at once. Az yet the work has not been com
menccd. There is probably no thoroughfare
in the city, cave the Seventh street road, that
is more Travelled over than the road leading to
the Congressional Cemetery. Yesterday the
dust from the street was 30 thick as to DO al
most unbearable.

At st. Pauls English Lutheran Church DR..
Domer very appropriately selected for his
evening lecture the subject OF statuary In
Washington, and the Importance OF the ad-
dition which is to be made to 1t by the unveil
mer expressed his pleasure at tho fact that
the statues were no longer oil OF military or
naval celebrities, MS the statue OF Professor
Henry and Chief Justice Marshall were i'm
portant exceptions to tho rule, aud the statue
about to be erected was OF still greater man.
The speaker regretted that the statue was on
the grounds OF a church and under the aus.
pices OF n sect, instead OF being on public
reservation. Luther, he said, was not the
henefactor and teacher OF single sect or ma
| ton, but had enlightened the whole world.
His statue certainly deserved prominence
and distinction equal TO that OF any general or
civilian which the American people have ever
seen Mt to honor thus; but because of sup.
posed or real difficulties In the way, no effort
was made before Congress TO acquire, either by
purchase or grant, fow square feet OF one OF the
| public reservations for the purpose. IL might
be that II such effort had been made the sect
| cry would have como up In opposition to the
measure from q few bigoted Romanists and a

| speaker believed that these would not have
succeeded. He would like to have seen mo-

A sinxular Paper from a Jury.

At the conclusion OF the Wheeler Matthews
murder trial on May 10, at Hagelhurst, Copian
County, Mississippi, the Jury which acquitted
Wheeler signed the following document,
which has been given to the press "Being
fully aware OF the solemn duty resting upon
us In this case, which has excited so much
public interest at homo and abroad, and hay
Ing now rendered our decision, we desire to
make these statements:
"First-None OF us are politicians, nor has
politics had anything to do with our decision.
''Second--We knew It was impossible to give
satisfaction In the case, and we have not tried,
but have rendered our verdict regardless OF
criticism from private individuals or the pub
lie press.
'1rhlrd-on returning to the jury.room we
united In a solemn prayer to God to en-
tighten our minds and purify our hearts so as to
enable us TO see our duty and TO decide tho
case upon tho evidence delivered from the
stand.
"Fourth-Thi decision has been delivered
without Partially and In tho fear of God
alone. II we have erred may He forgive us,
knowing II to be an error OF the head and not
the heart"
Matthews was prominent Republican, and
was killed at the election polls by Wheeler, O

to one side. said, conndentially, that he could
give me points ON horse that was sure to win.
l didn't take much stock In the horse he
named and when spoke TO friend about II
he said the horse would never win.
However, went in with him.
The horse didn't win. l afterward
learned that he had been trying the game on
a number Of others. 1t seems his game was to
60 through the whole list OF horses, telling as
many different persons separately that a cor.
tain horse would win. OF course he would DO
certain to strike the winning horse. Then at
ter tho race he would 60 to the fellow who had
bet on the right horse, and say to him, 'Now,
didh't tell you he would win2' or course the
fellow would give him something. In that
way these fellows would milk the whole
crowd. Great racket"

Ferdinand Ward was asked:

where securities were deposited TO the credit
OF the nrm."
"Then the real nature OF your business con-
sisted In discountipg the fanciful prospect of
imaginary profits to be derived from 1cti-
tious contracts founded on the manufacture
OF loans and artificial contributions OF Alto
gether imaginary money!"
Mr.. Ward appeared staggered for a mo-
ment as laugh went round, but, after ask
ing to have the question repeated, reluctantly
admitted that It might be- true, although he
would prefer not to answer.
"Did you conduct this sort OF business
alone!"
'Yes, had no confederates."
